The heat generating part 110 is bent into a spiral shape, and the first connection end 121 and the second connection end 122 are formed to extend from both ends of the heat generation part 110.
具体的には、本発明の好適な実施形態による発熱素子において、発熱部１１０、第１の接続端１２１、および第２の接続端１２２は合金材料から形成され円形の断面を有し、第１の接続端１２１および第２の接続端１２２は発熱部１１０の両端からそれぞれ軸方向に延在し、その延在距離は同じかまたは異なっており（異なる場合には二つの例がある：一つは第１の接続端１２１の延在距離が第２の接続端１２２の延在距離より長い場合、もう一つは第２の接続端１２２の延在距離が第１の接続端１２１の延在距離より長い場合である）、螺旋状発熱部１１０の両端にそれぞれ対応するよう形成されている。メッキ層１２３は第１および第２の接続端１２１、１２２を均一に覆うように径方向外側に向かって形成されており、発熱部１１０と第１の接続端１２１との界面の断面寸法は、発熱部１１０と第２の接続端１２２との界面の断面寸法と等しくなっている。 Specifically, in the heat generating element according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the heat generating portion 110, the first connection end 121, and the second connection end 122 are formed of an alloy material and have a circular cross section, The connecting end 121 and the second connecting end 122 extend in the axial direction from both ends of the heat generating part 110, and the extension distances thereof are the same or different (in the case of different, there are two examples: one When the extension distance of the first connection end 121 is longer than the extension distance of the second connection end 122, the other is the extension distance of the second connection end 122 is the extension of the first connection end 121. This is a case where it is longer than the distance), and is formed so as to correspond to both ends of the spiral heat generating portion 110, respectively.

Ｓ３．切断された合金材料の個片を、発熱部１１０、第１の接続端１２１、および第２の接続端１２２とに分割し、第１の接続端１２１および第２の接続端１２２の外面にメッキ層１２３を電気メッキにて形成する。 S3. A piece of the cut alloy material is divided into a heat generating portion 110, a first connection end 121, and a second connection end 122, and the outer surfaces of the first connection end 121 and the second connection end 122 are plated. Layer 123 is formed by electroplating.
Ｓ４．電気メッキされた合金材料に曲げ加工を行って発熱部１１０を螺旋形状に形成し、第１の接続端１２１および第２の接続端１２２を螺旋状発熱部１１０の両端部にそれぞれ対応させ、第１の接続端１２１と螺旋状発熱部１１０の対応する端部との距離を、第２の接続端１２２と螺旋状発熱部１１０の対応する端部との距離と等しくする。 S4. Bending is performed on the electroplated alloy material to form the heat generating portion 110 in a spiral shape, and the first connection end 121 and the second connection end 122 are made to correspond to the both ends of the spiral heat generating portion 110, respectively. The distance between the first connection end 121 and the corresponding end of the spiral heat generating portion 110 is made equal to the distance between the second connection end 122 and the corresponding end of the spiral heat generating portion 110.
Ｓ５．発熱素子１００を電子タバコの駆動回路に溶接または他の方法で接合する。 S5. The heating element 100 is welded or otherwise joined to the driving circuit of the electronic cigarette.
本発明による発熱素子の加工方法を実施することにより、次のような効果を得ることができる。発熱素子１００は、大量生産によっても安定した抵抗値とばらつきのない品質が得られる。メッキ層１２３、第１の接続端１２１、および第２の接続端１２２は、溶接やかしめなどの複雑な技術を用いることなく、一体に設計されている。メッキ層１２３は低抵抗の金属または合金の電気メッキにより形成されているので、接続部１２０はごく低い抵抗値を有する。接続部１２０に形成されたメッキ層１２３の存在により、接続部１２０を電子タバコの他の部分（例えば駆動回路）と比較的容易に溶接することができる。電気メッキは充分に進化した技術に属するので、本発明による発熱素子の加工方法は、電子タバコとそれに関連する製品の生産効率を改善し、電子タバコの生産コストを低減することができる。 The following effects can be obtained by carrying out the method for processing a heating element according to the present invention. The heating element 100 can obtain a stable resistance value and quality without variations even in mass production. The plated layer 123, the first connection end 121, and the second connection end 122 are integrally designed without using a complicated technique such as welding or caulking. Since the plating layer 123 is formed by electroplating of a low resistance metal or alloy, the connecting portion 120 has a very low resistance value. Due to the presence of the plating layer 123 formed on the connection part 120, the connection part 120 can be welded to other parts (for example, a drive circuit) of the electronic cigarette relatively easily. Since electroplating belongs to a sufficiently advanced technology, the heating element processing method according to the present invention can improve the production efficiency of electronic cigarettes and related products and reduce the production cost of electronic cigarettes.
