具体实施方式detailed description
以下公开内容提供用于实施所提供的标的物的不同特征的许多不同实施例或实例。 下文描述组件和布置的特定实例。当然,这些仅是实例且并不意图为限制性的。在本申请中,在以下描述中对第一特征在第二特征之上或上的形成的参考可包含第一特征与第二特征直接接触形成的实施例,并且还可包含额外特征可形成于第一特征与第二特征之间从而使得第一特征与第二特征可不直接接触的实施例。另外,本申请可能在各个实例中重复参考标号和/或字母。此重复是出于简化和清楚的目的,且本身并不指示所论述的各种实施例和/或配置之间的关系。The following disclosure provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing different features of the provided subject matter. Specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. Of course, these are only examples and are not intended to be limiting. In this application, the reference to the formation of the first feature on or on the second feature in the following description may include an embodiment in which the first feature is directly contacted with the second feature, and may also include additional features that may be formed on An embodiment between the first feature and the second feature so that the first feature and the second feature may not be in direct contact. In addition, this application may repeat reference numerals and/or letters in various examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplification and clarity, and does not in itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and/or configurations discussed.
下文详细论述本申请的实施例。然而,应了解,本申请提供了可在多种多样的特定情境中实施的许多适用的概念。所论述的特定实施例仅仅是说明性的且并不限制本申请的范围。在本文中,用语“用于使用者吸入的气雾”可以包括,但不限于,气溶胶、悬浮液体、低温蒸气及挥发性气体。The embodiments of the present application are discussed in detail below. However, it should be understood that this application provides many applicable concepts that can be implemented in a variety of specific situations. The specific embodiments discussed are merely illustrative and do not limit the scope of the application. In this context, the term "aerosol for user inhalation" may include, but is not limited to, aerosols, suspended liquids, low-temperature vapors, and volatile gases.
现有的电子烟产品并未考虑到储油室的压力平衡。现有的电子烟产品中,储油室一般设计为完全密封以防止可气化溶液溢出。制造完成的电子烟产品,在运送过程中,可能因气温变化或气压变化,造成储油室内压力上升。储油室内压力上升将导致大量的烟油向气雾生成组件流动,并可造成电子烟产品烟油渗漏的问题。此外,随着使用者持续使用电子烟产品,储油室内的可气化溶液不断消耗并减少,使储油室内压力变小而形成负压。负压使储油室内的可气化溶液难以均匀流动至气雾生成组件上,使气雾生成组件未均匀吸附可气化溶液。此时,气雾生成组件温度升高时将有高机率空烧而产生焦味,造成不良的使用者体验。The existing electronic cigarette products do not consider the pressure balance of the oil storage chamber. In existing electronic cigarette products, the oil storage chamber is generally designed to be completely sealed to prevent the vaporizable solution from overflowing. The manufactured electronic cigarette products may increase the pressure in the oil storage chamber due to changes in temperature or air pressure during the transportation process. The increase in the pressure in the oil storage chamber will cause a large amount of e-liquid to flow to the aerosol generating component, and can cause the problem of e-liquid leakage of electronic cigarette products. In addition, as users continue to use electronic cigarette products, the vaporizable solution in the oil storage chamber is continuously consumed and reduced, so that the pressure in the oil storage chamber decreases and a negative pressure is formed. The negative pressure makes it difficult for the vaporizable solution in the oil storage chamber to evenly flow to the aerosol generating component, so that the aerosol generating component does not uniformly adsorb the vaporizable solution. At this time, when the temperature of the aerosol generating component rises, there will be a high probability of empty burning and a burnt smell, resulting in a bad user experience.

当气雾生成组件3产生的气雾沿着管1t朝开口1h1传递时,将经过段差1s。气雾在经过段差1s后,因管1t的内径放大(从1w2放大为1w1),可降低气雾在管1t内壁凝结而产生冷凝液体的机率。段差1s可降低烟弹100A使用过程中产生冷凝液体的量,进而降低冷凝液体在使用过程中泄漏的机率。When the aerosol generated by the aerosol generating assembly 3 passes along the tube 1t toward the opening 1h1, it will pass a step difference of 1s. After the aerosol has a step difference of 1s, the inner diameter of the tube 1t is enlarged (from 1w2 to 1w1), which can reduce the probability of condensation of the aerosol on the inner wall of the tube 1t to produce condensed liquid. The step difference of 1s can reduce the amount of condensed liquid generated during the use of the cartridge 100A, thereby reducing the probability of leakage of condensed liquid during use.
在某些实施例中,管1t的内径在靠近上盖2的部分具有较小的内径,而在远离上盖2的部分具有较大的内径。在某些实施例中,管1t的内径在靠近气雾生成组件3的部分 具有较小的内径,而在远离气雾生成组件3的部分具有较大的内径。In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the tube 1 t has a smaller inner diameter at a part close to the upper cover 2 and a larger inner diameter at a part far away from the upper cover 2. In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the tube 1t has a smaller inner diameter at a portion close to the aerosol generating assembly 3, and a larger inner diameter at a portion far away from the aerosol generating assembly 3. As shown in FIG.
烟弹外壳1内壁进一步包含一阶梯结构1d。阶梯结构1d可由烟弹外壳1的不均匀厚度形成。阶梯结构1d可由烟弹外壳1的内表面1ds1与内表面1ds2形成。烟弹外壳1的内表面1ds1可与烟弹外壳1的内表面1ds2不共面(coplanar)。烟弹外壳1的内表面1ds1与烟弹外壳1的内表面1ds2之间可具有一段差。在烟弹100A的组装过程中,阶梯结构1d可以在烟弹外壳1与上盖2之间提供阻力。上盖2的顶部密封结构2t抵靠于阶梯结构1d后到达预定位置,此时对下盖4持续施加朝向上盖2的力,可以造成柱状结构4p1的薄形突出部4d1及薄形突出部4d3产生变形,并使柱状结构4p1深入并固定于上盖2内。同样地,柱状结构4p2的两个薄形突出部亦产生变形,使柱状结构4p2深入并固定于上盖2内。The inner wall of the cartridge case 1 further includes a stepped structure 1d. The stepped structure 1d may be formed by the uneven thickness of the cartridge case 1. The stepped structure 1d can be formed by the inner surface 1ds1 and the inner surface 1ds2 of the cartridge case 1. The inner surface 1ds1 of the cartridge case 1 may not be coplanar with the inner surface 1ds2 of the cartridge case 1. There may be a difference between the inner surface 1ds1 of the cartridge case 1 and the inner surface 1ds2 of the cartridge case 1. During the assembly process of the cartridge 100A, the stepped structure 1d can provide resistance between the cartridge housing 1 and the upper cover 2. The top sealing structure 2t of the upper cover 2 abuts the stepped structure 1d and reaches a predetermined position. At this time, the lower cover 4 is continuously applied with a force toward the upper cover 2, which can cause the thin protrusion 4d1 and the thin protrusion of the columnar structure 4p1 4d3 is deformed, and the columnar structure 4p1 is deepened and fixed in the upper cover 2. Similarly, the two thin protrusions of the columnar structure 4p2 are also deformed, so that the columnar structure 4p2 is deep and fixed in the upper cover 2.

如图7B所示,当烟弹100A组装完成后,顶部密封结构2t的外伸结构2t1可抵靠于管1t及管状结构2m1之间,在管1t及管状结构2m1之间提供密封效果。外伸结构2t1可设置于管状结构2m1的上表面。外伸结构2t1可设置于管状结构2m1的上表面与管1t的阶梯结构1d2(参阅图7A)之间。As shown in FIG. 7B, after the cartridge 100A is assembled, the overhanging structure 2t1 of the top sealing structure 2t can abut between the tube 1t and the tubular structure 2m1 to provide a sealing effect between the tube 1t and the tubular structure 2m1. The overhanging structure 2t1 can be arranged on the upper surface of the tubular structure 2m1. The overhanging structure 2t1 can be arranged between the upper surface of the tubular structure 2m1 and the stepped structure 1d2 of the tube 1t (see FIG. 7A).
当烟弹100A组装完成后,管1t的一部分(即,部分1t2)可延伸进入管状结构2m1内。在此情况下,顶部密封结构2t的凸起部2t2可在管1t及管状结构2m1之间提供密封效果。After the cartridge 100A is assembled, a part of the tube 1t (ie, the part 1t2) can extend into the tubular structure 2m1. In this case, the protrusion 2t2 of the top sealing structure 2t can provide a sealing effect between the tube 1t and the tubular structure 2m1.
顶部密封结构2t、管1t及烟弹外壳1的内表面1s2之间定义储存舱10。储存舱10可以容纳烟油。当烟弹100A组装完成后,顶部密封结构2t的凸起部2t3可抵靠于烟弹外壳1的内表面1s1,进而在上盖2与烟弹外壳1之间提供密封效果。当烟弹100A组装完成后,顶部密封结构2t的气雾生成组件密封部2t4可抵靠于气雾生成组件3的顶部周围,进而在上盖2与气雾生成组件3之间提供密封效果。气雾生成组件密封部2t4可围绕气雾生成组件3的槽3c。The storage compartment 10 is defined between the top sealing structure 2t, the tube 1t, and the inner surface 1s2 of the cartridge shell 1. The storage compartment 10 can contain e-liquid. After the cartridge 100A is assembled, the protrusion 2t3 of the top sealing structure 2t can abut the inner surface 1s1 of the cartridge case 1 to provide a sealing effect between the upper cover 2 and the cartridge case 1. After the cartridge 100A is assembled, the aerosol generating assembly sealing portion 2t4 of the top sealing structure 2t can abut against the top of the aerosol generating assembly 3 to provide a sealing effect between the upper cover 2 and the aerosol generating assembly 3. The aerosol generating assembly sealing portion 2t4 may surround the groove 3c of the aerosol generating assembly 3.
当烟弹100A组装完成后,底部密封结构2b的凸起部2b1可抵靠于烟弹外壳1的内表面1s1,进而在上盖2与烟弹外壳1之间提供密封效果。After the cartridge 100A is assembled, the protrusion 2b1 of the bottom sealing structure 2b can abut the inner surface 1s1 of the cartridge case 1 to provide a sealing effect between the upper cover 2 and the cartridge case 1.
当上盖2与下盖4组装后,底部密封结构2b的外伸结构2b2可抵靠于上盖2与下盖4的表面4s1之间,进而在上盖2与下盖4之间提供密封效果。After the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 4 are assembled, the overhanging structure 2b2 of the bottom sealing structure 2b can abut against the surfaces 4s1 of the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 4, thereby providing a seal between the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 4 Effect.
当烟弹100A组装完成后,进气孔4f的上表面4s与气雾生成组件3的底部表面3s的距离可以在1.5mm至3.5mm的范围内。在某些实施例中,进气孔4f的上表面4s与气 雾生成组件3的底部表面3s的距离可以在2mm至3mm的范围内。After the cartridge 100A is assembled, the distance between the upper surface 4s of the air inlet 4f and the bottom surface 3s of the aerosol generating assembly 3 may be in the range of 1.5 mm to 3.5 mm. In some embodiments, the distance between the upper surface 4s of the air inlet 4f and the bottom surface 3s of the aerosol generating assembly 3 may be in the range of 2mm to 3mm.
图8演示根据本申请的一些实施例的烟弹的组装示意图。图8演示了烟弹100A完成第一阶段组装后,上盖2与下盖4的相对位置。为了说明的简要性,在图8中省略了吸附组件5a及吸附组件5b的绘制。在烟弹100A实际的组装过程中应包含上述组件。Fig. 8 illustrates a schematic diagram of the assembly of the cartridge according to some embodiments of the present application. FIG. 8 illustrates the relative positions of the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 4 after the first stage of assembly of the cartridge 100A is completed. For simplicity of description, drawing of the suction assembly 5a and the suction assembly 5b is omitted in FIG. 8. The above components should be included in the actual assembly process of the cartridge 100A.
如图8所示,下盖4与上盖2先进行第一阶段组装,使下盖4及上盖2成为彼此相连的单组件24。此时单组件24不容易在运送或移动过程中分离成下盖4及上盖2。As shown in FIG. 8, the lower cover 4 and the upper cover 2 are assembled in the first stage first, so that the lower cover 4 and the upper cover 2 become a single component 24 connected to each other. At this time, the single component 24 is not easily separated into the lower cover 4 and the upper cover 2 during transportation or movement.
上盖2于两侧具有窗口201及窗口202。在下盖4与上盖2的第一阶段组装中,对下盖4底部施加一个朝着上盖2方向的力,使柱状结构4p1深入上盖2内。对下盖4施加的力可使柱状结构4p1的卡扣突出部4d2及卡扣突出部4d4分别抵达窗口201及窗口202内。The upper cover 2 has a window 201 and a window 202 on both sides. In the first stage of assembly of the lower cover 4 and the upper cover 2, a force is applied to the bottom of the lower cover 4 toward the upper cover 2 so that the columnar structure 4p1 penetrates into the upper cover 2. The force applied to the lower cover 4 can make the snap protrusion 4d2 and snap protrusion 4d4 of the columnar structure 4p1 reach into the window 201 and the window 202, respectively.
卡扣突出部4d2可包含倾斜表面421及422,以利于柱状结构4p1能通过底部边缘2e1并深入上盖2内。卡扣突出部4d4可包含倾斜表面441及442,以利于柱状结构4p1能通过底部边缘2e2并深入上盖2内。The buckle protrusion 4d2 may include inclined surfaces 421 and 422 to facilitate the columnar structure 4p1 to pass through the bottom edge 2e1 and penetrate into the upper cover 2. The buckle protrusion 4d4 may include inclined surfaces 441 and 442 so that the columnar structure 4p1 can pass through the bottom edge 2e2 and penetrate into the upper cover 2.
当卡扣突出部4d2抵达窗口201后,柱状结构4p1的薄形突出部4d1抵靠于上盖2的底部边缘2e1,柱状结构4p1的卡扣突出部4d2抵靠于窗口201的表面201s。相同地,当卡扣突出部4d4抵达窗口202后,柱状结构4p1的薄形突出部4d3抵靠于上盖2的底部边缘2e2,柱状结构4p1的卡扣突出部4d4抵靠于窗口202的表面202s。经上述第一阶段组装后,下盖4及上盖2成为彼此相连的单组件24,便于将烟弹100A的所有组件运送至目的地后再进行第二阶段组装。When the locking protrusion 4d2 reaches the window 201, the thin protrusion 4d1 of the columnar structure 4p1 abuts against the bottom edge 2e1 of the upper cover 2, and the locking protrusion 4d2 of the columnar structure 4p1 abuts against the surface 201s of the window 201. Similarly, when the snap protrusion 4d4 reaches the window 202, the thin protrusion 4d3 of the columnar structure 4p1 abuts against the bottom edge 2e2 of the upper cover 2, and the snap protrusion 4d4 of the columnar structure 4p1 abuts against the surface of the window 202 202s. After the above-mentioned first stage of assembly, the lower cover 4 and the upper cover 2 become a single component 24 connected to each other, which is convenient for transporting all the components of the cartridge 100A to the destination before proceeding to the second stage of assembly.
如图8所示,在第一阶段组装后,柱状结构4p1尚未完全深入阀结构2v1中,使得柱状结构4p1与阀结构2v1之间仍保持可让流体通过的空隙。As shown in FIG. 8, after the first stage of assembly, the columnar structure 4p1 has not yet fully penetrated into the valve structure 2v1, so that a gap between the columnar structure 4p1 and the valve structure 2v1 for fluid passage is still maintained.
薄形突出部4d1可具有厚度4w1。在某些实施例中,厚度4w1可以在0.35mm至0.65mm的范围内。在某些实施例中,厚度4w1可以在0.38mm至0.41mm的范围内。薄形突出部4d3可与薄形突出部4d1具有相同的厚度。The thin protrusion 4d1 may have a thickness 4w1. In some embodiments, the thickness 4w1 may be in the range of 0.35 mm to 0.65 mm. In some embodiments, the thickness 4w1 may be in the range of 0.38 mm to 0.41 mm. The thin protrusion 4d3 may have the same thickness as the thin protrusion 4d1.
图9A演示根据本申请一些实施例的烟弹的组装示意图。图9A演示了烟弹100A的第二阶段组装的示意图。Figure 9A illustrates a schematic diagram of the assembly of the cartridge according to some embodiments of the present application. FIG. 9A illustrates a schematic diagram of the second stage assembly of the cartridge 100A.
图9A显示了下盖4、上盖2及烟弹外壳1。需注意的是,为了说明的简要性,在图9A中省略了气雾生成组件3以及吸附组件5a及吸附组件5b的绘制。在烟弹100A实际的组装过程中应包含上述组件。FIG. 9A shows the lower cover 4, the upper cover 2 and the cartridge case 1. It should be noted that, for the sake of simplicity of description, the aerosol generating assembly 3 and the drawing of the adsorption assembly 5a and the adsorption assembly 5b are omitted in FIG. 9A. The above components should be included in the actual assembly process of the cartridge 100A.
如上述关于图8的相关段落中所述,下盖4及上盖2会先进行第一阶段组装,使下盖4及上盖2成为彼此相连的单组件24,便于运送至目的地后再进行第二阶段组装。As mentioned in the above related paragraphs about Fig. 8, the lower cover 4 and the upper cover 2 will be assembled in the first stage, so that the lower cover 4 and the upper cover 2 are connected to each other as a single component 24, which is convenient for transportation to the destination. Proceed to the second stage of assembly.
如图9A所示,在进行第二阶段组装时,烟弹外壳1内已先填充烟油100l,随后将单组件24的一部分推挤入于烟弹外壳1内,使单组件24与烟弹外壳1彼此固定。在单组件24与烟弹外壳1尚未彼此固定时,上盖2的阀结构2v1与下盖4的柱状结构4p1之间存在间隙/通道。在单组件24与烟弹外壳1的组装过程中,阀结构2v1与柱状结构4p1之间存在的通道可使得烟弹外壳1内的气体沿着路径2f1排出,可避免烟弹100A组装完成后内部压力过大。相同地,阀结构2v2与柱状结构4p2之间存在的通道可使得烟弹外壳1内的气体沿着路径2f2排出,可避免烟弹100A组装完成后内部压力过大。烟弹100A内压力过大可能造成烟油渗漏,降低产品的量率,亦可能造成不良的使用者体验。As shown in Figure 9A, during the second stage of assembly, the cartridge housing 1 has been filled with 100l of e-liquid, and then a part of the single component 24 is pushed into the cartridge housing 1, so that the single component 24 and the cartridge The housings 1 are fixed to each other. When the single component 24 and the cartridge case 1 are not fixed to each other, there is a gap/channel between the valve structure 2v1 of the upper cover 2 and the columnar structure 4p1 of the lower cover 4. During the assembly process of the single component 24 and the cartridge case 1, the passage between the valve structure 2v1 and the columnar structure 4p1 can allow the gas in the cartridge case 1 to be discharged along the path 2f1, which can prevent the cartridge 100A from being assembled. over stressed. Similarly, the passage between the valve structure 2v2 and the columnar structure 4p2 can allow the gas in the cartridge housing 1 to be discharged along the path 2f2, which can avoid excessive internal pressure after the cartridge 100A is assembled. Excessive pressure inside the cartridge 100A may cause e-liquid leakage, reduce the volume rate of the product, and may also cause a bad user experience.
同时参阅图8及图9A,在烟弹100A的第二阶段组装中,柱状结构4p1的薄形突出部4d1及薄形突出部4d3亦扮演重要的角色。在第二阶段组装过程中,下盖4可被持续施加一个朝向烟弹外壳1方向的力,直到上盖2的顶部密封结构2t抵靠于烟弹外壳1内的阶梯结构1d(参阅图7A)。8 and 9A at the same time, in the second stage assembly of the cartridge 100A, the thin protrusion 4d1 and the thin protrusion 4d3 of the columnar structure 4p1 also play an important role. In the second stage of the assembly process, the lower cover 4 can be continuously applied with a force toward the cartridge housing 1 until the top sealing structure 2t of the upper cover 2 abuts against the stepped structure 1d in the cartridge housing 1 (see Figure 7A ).
在下盖4被持续施力的期间,薄形突出部4d1可将施力经由上盖2的底部边缘2e1传递至上盖2,以确保上盖2可以到达烟弹外壳1内的预定位置。同样地,薄形突出部4d3在第二阶段组装过程中,可将施力经由上盖2的底部边缘2e2传递至上盖2,以确保上盖2可以到达烟弹外壳1内的预定位置。While the lower cover 4 is continuously applied, the thin protrusion 4d1 can transmit the applied force to the upper cover 2 via the bottom edge 2e1 of the upper cover 2 to ensure that the upper cover 2 can reach the predetermined position in the cartridge housing 1. Similarly, the thin protrusion 4d3 can transmit force to the upper cover 2 via the bottom edge 2e2 of the upper cover 2 during the second stage of assembly process, so as to ensure that the upper cover 2 can reach the predetermined position in the cartridge housing 1.
图9B演示根据本申请一些实施例的烟弹的剖视图。图9B演示烟弹100A组装完成后的剖视图。需注意的是,为了说明的简要性,在图9B中省略了金属结构6a、金属结构6b、吸附组件5a及吸附组件5b的绘制。烟弹100A组装完成后应包含上述组件。Figure 9B illustrates a cross-sectional view of a cartridge according to some embodiments of the present application. FIG. 9B illustrates a cross-sectional view of the cigarette cartridge 100A after being assembled. It should be noted that, for simplicity of description, the drawing of the metal structure 6a, the metal structure 6b, the suction component 5a, and the suction component 5b are omitted in FIG. 9B. After the cartridge 100A is assembled, the above components should be included.
如图9B所示,当下盖4及上盖2固定于烟弹外壳1内的预定位置后,阀结构2v1与柱状结构4p1之间紧密贴合,且阀结构2v2与柱状结构4p2之间紧密贴合。阀结构2v1围绕柱状结构4p1的一部分并曝露柱状结构4p1的顶部表面4p1s。阀结构2v2围绕柱状结构4p2的一部分并曝露柱状结构4p2的顶部表面4p2s。As shown in FIG. 9B, when the lower cover 4 and the upper cover 2 are fixed at the predetermined positions in the cartridge case 1, the valve structure 2v1 and the columnar structure 4p1 are closely attached, and the valve structure 2v2 and the columnar structure 4p2 are closely attached to each other. combine. The valve structure 2v1 surrounds a part of the columnar structure 4p1 and exposes the top surface 4p1s of the columnar structure 4p1. The valve structure 2v2 surrounds a part of the columnar structure 4p2 and exposes the top surface 4p2s of the columnar structure 4p2.
当烟弹100A组装完成后,阀结构2v1成为一个单向换气阀。当烟弹100A组装完成后,阀结构2v1可兼具单向阀及换气阀的功能。After the cartridge 100A is assembled, the valve structure 2v1 becomes a one-way air exchange valve. After the cartridge 100A is assembled, the valve structure 2v1 can have the functions of a one-way valve and a ventilation valve.
当烟弹100A组装完成后,储存舱10中的压力可略大于雾化室40内的压力,此时储存舱10中的压力可使弹性结构2p1贴合柱状结构4p1,或使弹性结构2p1朝着靠近柱状结构4p1的方向产生移动。相同的,储存舱10中的压力可使弹性结构2p2贴合柱状结构4p2,或使弹性结构2p2朝着靠近柱状结构4p2的方向产生移动。After the cartridge 100A is assembled, the pressure in the storage compartment 10 can be slightly greater than the pressure in the atomization chamber 40. At this time, the pressure in the storage compartment 10 can make the elastic structure 2p1 fit the columnar structure 4p1, or make the elastic structure 2p1 face Move in the direction approaching the columnar structure 4p1. Similarly, the pressure in the storage compartment 10 can cause the elastic structure 2p2 to fit the columnar structure 4p2, or cause the elastic structure 2p2 to move toward the columnar structure 4p2.
作为一个单向阀,阀结构2v1可避免储存舱10内的烟油从阀结构2v1与柱状结构 4p1之间泄漏至储存舱10之外。作为一个单向阀,阀结构2v2可避免储存舱10内的烟油从阀结构2v2与柱状结构4p2之间泄漏至储存舱10之外。As a one-way valve, the valve structure 2v1 can prevent the e-liquid in the storage compartment 10 from leaking out of the storage compartment 10 from between the valve structure 2v1 and the columnar structure 4p1. As a one-way valve, the valve structure 2v2 can prevent the e-liquid in the storage compartment 10 from leaking out of the storage compartment 10 from between the valve structure 2v2 and the columnar structure 4p2.
在使用者持续使用烟弹100A后,储存舱10中的烟油体积不断减少,并造成储存舱10内的压力不断下降。储存舱10内的压力降低可能使烟油不易流向气雾生成组件3。储存舱10内的压力降低可能使压热组件3无法充分吸附烟油,进而在加热过程中产生焦味或苦味。After the user continues to use the cartridge 100A, the volume of the e-liquid in the storage compartment 10 is continuously reduced, and the pressure in the storage compartment 10 is continuously reduced. The pressure drop in the storage compartment 10 may make it difficult for the e-liquid to flow to the aerosol generating assembly 3. The pressure reduction in the storage compartment 10 may make the autoclave assembly 3 unable to fully absorb the smoke oil, which may cause a burnt or bitter taste during the heating process.
当储存舱10内的压力与雾化室40内的压力差到达临限值时,雾化室40内的空气可经由路径4f1推开阀结构2v1的弹性结构2p1并进入储存舱10中,藉以平衡储存舱10与雾化室40的压力。当储存舱10内的压力与雾化室40内的压力差到达临限值时,雾化室40内的空气可推开弹性结构2p1,使弹性结构2p1朝着远离柱状结构4p1的方向产生移动。雾化室40内的空气可使弹性结构2p1产生形变而不与柱状结构4p1接触。When the pressure difference between the pressure in the storage compartment 10 and the pressure in the atomization chamber 40 reaches the threshold, the air in the atomization chamber 40 can push the elastic structure 2p1 of the valve structure 2v1 through the path 4f1 and enter the storage compartment 10, thereby The pressure of the storage compartment 10 and the atomization chamber 40 is balanced. When the difference between the pressure in the storage compartment 10 and the pressure in the atomization chamber 40 reaches the threshold, the air in the atomization chamber 40 can push away the elastic structure 2p1, causing the elastic structure 2p1 to move away from the columnar structure 4p1 . The air in the atomization chamber 40 can deform the elastic structure 2p1 without contacting the columnar structure 4p1.
相同地,当储存舱10内的压力与雾化室40内的压力差到达临限值时,雾化室40内的空气可经由路径4f2推开阀结构2v2的弹性结构2p2并进入储存舱10中,藉以平衡储存舱10与雾化室40的压力。雾化室40内的空气可推开弹性结构2p2,使弹性结构2p2朝着远离柱状结构4p2的方向产生移动。雾化室40内的空气可使弹性结构2p2产生形变而不与柱状结构4p2接触。Similarly, when the pressure difference between the pressure in the storage compartment 10 and the pressure in the atomization chamber 40 reaches the threshold, the air in the atomization chamber 40 can push open the elastic structure 2p2 of the valve structure 2v2 through the path 4f2 and enter the storage compartment 10. In order to balance the pressure of the storage compartment 10 and the atomization chamber 40. The air in the atomization chamber 40 can push the elastic structure 2p2 away, so that the elastic structure 2p2 moves in a direction away from the columnar structure 4p2. The air in the atomization chamber 40 can deform the elastic structure 2p2 without contacting the columnar structure 4p2.
作为一个换气阀,阀结构2v1可降低烟弹100A加热时产生干烧的机率,并有利于使用者充分将储存舱10内的烟油完全使用完毕。作为一个换气阀,阀结构2v2可降低烟弹100A加热时产生干烧的机率,并有利于使用者充分将储存舱10内的烟油完全使用完毕。As a ventilation valve, the valve structure 2v1 can reduce the probability of dry burning when the cartridge 100A is heated, and is beneficial for the user to fully use the e-liquid in the storage compartment 10 completely. As a ventilation valve, the valve structure 2v2 can reduce the probability of dry burning when the cartridge 100A is heated, and is beneficial for the user to fully use the e-liquid in the storage compartment 10.
图9C演示根据本申请一些实施例的烟弹的剖视图。图9C演示包含上盖2'的烟弹100A组装完成后的剖视图。需注意的是,为了说明的简要性,在图9C中省略了金属结构6a、金属结构6b、吸附组件5a及吸附组件5b的绘制。烟弹100A组装完成后应包含上述组件。Figure 9C illustrates a cross-sectional view of a cartridge according to some embodiments of the present application. FIG. 9C illustrates a cross-sectional view of the cartridge 100A including the upper cover 2'after being assembled. It should be noted that, for simplicity of description, the drawing of the metal structure 6a, the metal structure 6b, the suction component 5a, and the suction component 5b are omitted in FIG. 9C. After the cartridge 100A is assembled, the above components should be included.
当下盖4及上盖2'固定于烟弹外壳1内的预定位置后,阀结构2v1'与柱状结构4p2之间紧密贴合。当烟弹100A组装完成后,阀结构2v1'成为一个单向换气阀。在使用者持续使用烟弹100A后,储存舱10中的烟油体积不断减少,并造成储存舱10内的压力不断下降。当储存舱10内的压力与雾化室40内的压力差到达临限值时,雾化室40内的空气可经由路径4f1'推开阀结构2v1'的弹性结构2p1'并进入储存舱10中,藉以平衡储存舱10与雾化室40的压力。作为一个换气阀,阀结构2v1'可降低烟弹100A加热时产生干烧的机率,并有利于使用者充分将储存舱10内的烟油完全使用完毕。作为一个单 向阀,阀结构2v1'可避免储存舱10内的烟油从阀结构2v1'与柱状结构4p2之间泄漏至储存舱10之外。After the lower cover 4 and the upper cover 2'are fixed at the predetermined positions in the cartridge housing 1, the valve structure 2v1' and the columnar structure 4p2 are closely attached. After the cartridge 100A is assembled, the valve structure 2v1' becomes a one-way ventilation valve. After the user continues to use the cartridge 100A, the volume of the e-liquid in the storage compartment 10 is continuously reduced, and the pressure in the storage compartment 10 is continuously reduced. When the pressure difference between the pressure in the storage compartment 10 and the pressure in the atomization chamber 40 reaches the threshold, the air in the atomization chamber 40 can push open the elastic structure 2p1' of the valve structure 2v1' through the path 4f1' and enter the storage compartment 10 In order to balance the pressure of the storage compartment 10 and the atomization chamber 40.

金属结构6a与下盖4由一体化注塑形成(参阅图6A),故金属结构6a嵌入于下盖4内。在烟弹100A的组装过程中,金属结构6a将随着下盖4安置于烟弹外壳1中而与气雾生成组件3的底部接触。为了更清楚地介绍气雾生成组件3及金属结构6a的相对关系,图10A省略了下盖4。The metal structure 6a and the lower cover 4 are formed by integral injection molding (see FIG. 6A), so the metal structure 6a is embedded in the lower cover 4. During the assembly process of the cartridge 100A, the metal structure 6a will contact the bottom of the aerosol generating assembly 3 as the lower cover 4 is placed in the cartridge housing 1.

在某些实施例中,接点61t1、接点61t2及接点61t3可具有不同的曲率半径。一般而言,曲率半径越大则曲率越小,反之亦然。在某些实施例中,接点61t1的曲率半径小于接点61t2的曲率半径。在某些实施例中,接点61t2的曲率半径小于接点61t3的曲率半径。在某些实施例中,接点61t1的曲率半径可以为约0.8mm。在某些实施例中,接点61t2的曲率半径可以为约0.7mm。在某些实施例中,接点61t3的曲率半径可以为约2mm。In some embodiments, the contact 61t1, the contact 61t2, and the contact 61t3 may have different radii of curvature. Generally speaking, the larger the radius of curvature, the smaller the curvature, and vice versa. In some embodiments, the radius of curvature of the contact 61t1 is smaller than the radius of curvature of the contact 61t2. In some embodiments, the radius of curvature of the contact 61t2 is smaller than the radius of curvature of the contact 61t3.

The extending direction of the section 61s1 is different from the extending directions of the section 61s2, the section 61s3, and the section 61s4. The extending direction of the section 61s2 is different from the extending directions of the section 61s3 and the section 61s4. The extending direction of the section 61s3 is different from the extending direction of the section 61s4.
区段61s1朝着如图10A所示的y轴方向延伸。区段61s2与区段61s1(亦即,y轴方向)之间形成夹角θ 1。区段61s3与y轴方向之间形成夹角θ 2The section 61s1 extends in the y-axis direction as shown in FIG. 10A. The section 61s2 and the section 61s1 (that is, the y-axis direction) form an included angle θ 1 . The section 61s3 forms an angle θ 2 with the y-axis direction.

In some embodiments, the included angle θ 2 is in the range of 15° to 25°.
在烟弹100A的组装过程中,金属结构6a将沿着图10A所示的y轴方向向上移动而与气雾生成组件3彼此接触。气雾生成组件3与金属结构6a接触后,将从接点61t1对弹片结构61施加一沿着y轴方向向下的力Fy。弹片结构61受到力Fy的作用后将产生变形。弹片结构61的不同区段在受到力Fy的作用后将产生沿着不同方向的位移。During the assembly process of the cartridge 100A, the metal structure 6a will move upward along the y-axis direction shown in FIG. 10A to contact the aerosol generating assembly 3 with each other. After the aerosol generating assembly 3 is in contact with the metal structure 6a, a downward force Fy along the y-axis direction will be applied to the elastic sheet structure 61 from the contact 61t1. The shrapnel structure 61 will deform after receiving the force Fy. Different sections of the shrapnel structure 61 will produce displacements in different directions after being acted on by the force Fy.
参阅图10A,当区段61s2受到力Fy的作用后产生沿着x轴向右方向的移动,且当区段61s3受到力Fy的作用后产生沿着x轴向左方向的移动。Referring to FIG. 10A, when the section 61s2 receives the force Fy, it moves in the right direction along the x-axis, and when the section 61s3 receives the force Fy, it moves in the left direction along the x-axis.
详言之,弹片结构61受到力Fy的作用后,区段61s2会沿着y轴方向向下移动,并造成接点61t2沿着x轴方向向右移动。此外,区段61s3会沿着y轴方向向下移动,并造成接点61t1沿着x轴方向向左移动。In detail, after the shrapnel structure 61 receives the force Fy, the section 61s2 will move downward along the y-axis direction, and cause the contact point 61t2 to move rightward along the x-axis direction. In addition, the section 61s3 will move downward along the y-axis direction, and cause the contact point 61t1 to move leftward along the x-axis direction.
在某些实施例中,力Fy的作用造成的接点61t1的位移长度与接点61t2的位移长度 大约相同。因此,当弹片结构61受到力Fy的作用时,接点61t1的向左位移可以大约抵销接点61t2的向右位移。In some embodiments, the displacement length of the contact 61t1 caused by the force Fy is approximately the same as the displacement length of the contact 61t2. Therefore, when the elastic sheet structure 61 receives the force Fy, the leftward displacement of the contact point 61t1 can approximately offset the rightward displacement of the contact point 61t2.
在某些实施例中,当弹片结构61受到力Fy的作用时,接点61t1的位移长度与接点61t2的位移长度之间的差异可以在0.05mm至0.15mm的范围内。在某些实施例中,当弹片结构61受到力Fy的作用时,接点61t1的位移长度与接点61t2的位移长度之间的差异可以在0.2mm至0.65mm的范围内。In some embodiments, when the elastic sheet structure 61 is subjected to the force Fy, the difference between the displacement length of the contact point 61t1 and the displacement length of the contact point 61t2 may be in the range of 0.05 mm to 0.15 mm. In some embodiments, when the elastic sheet structure 61 is subjected to the force Fy, the difference between the displacement length of the contact 61t1 and the displacement length of the contact 61t2 may be in the range of 0.2 mm to 0.65 mm.
图10B显示气雾生成组件3及金属结构6a的立体视图。当弹片结构61与气雾生成组件3组装至烟弹100A中后,接点61t1与发热件31的接触点31p1彼此接触。FIG. 10B shows a three-dimensional view of the aerosol generating assembly 3 and the metal structure 6a. After the shrapnel structure 61 and the aerosol generating assembly 3 are assembled into the cartridge 100A, the contact point 61t1 and the contact point 31p1 of the heating element 31 are in contact with each other.
在组装过程中,区段61s1与区段61s2之间的夹角θ 1及区段61s3与y轴方向之间的夹角θ 2,可确保接点61t1落于接触点31p1的范围内,避免弹片结构61与发热件31接触不良。弹片结构61与发热件31接触不良可造成烟弹100A无法正常接收主体100B提供的电源。 During the assembly process, the included angle θ 1 between section 61s1 and section 61s2 and the included angle θ 2 between section 61s3 and the y-axis direction can ensure that the contact point 61t1 falls within the range of the contact point 31p1 and avoid shrapnel The structure 61 and the heating element 31 are in poor contact. Poor contact between the shrapnel structure 61 and the heating element 31 may cause the cartridge 100A to fail to normally receive the power provided by the main body 100B.
在某些实施例中,接触点31p1可以设置于气雾生成组件3底部的宽度正中心。在某些实施例中,当弹片结构61与气雾生成组件3组装至烟弹100A中后,接点61t1可位于气雾生成组件3底部的宽度正中心。In some embodiments, the contact point 31p1 may be located at the center of the width of the bottom of the aerosol generating assembly 3. In some embodiments, after the shrapnel structure 61 and the aerosol generating assembly 3 are assembled into the cartridge 100A, the contact point 61t1 may be located at the center of the width of the bottom of the aerosol generating assembly 3.
相同地,虽图10B中未绘制,弹片结构63(参阅6A)可具有与弹片结构61相同的外型,因此亦可确保组装过程中弹片结构63适当地与接触点31p2接触。Similarly, although it is not shown in FIG. 10B, the shrapnel structure 63 (see 6A) can have the same appearance as the shrapnel structure 61, so it can also ensure that the shrapnel structure 63 properly contacts the contact point 31p2 during the assembly process.
在某些实施例中,接触点31p1可具有大于1.35mm的长度。在某些实施例中,接触点31p1可具有大约1.17mm的长度。在某些实施例中,接触点31p1的宽度可以在宽1.0mm至1.5mm的范围内。接触点31p2可以与接触点31p1具有相同的外形尺寸。In some embodiments, the contact point 31p1 may have a length greater than 1.35 mm. In some embodiments, the contact point 31p1 may have a length of approximately 1.17 mm. In some embodiments, the width of the contact point 31p1 may be in the range of 1.0 mm to 1.5 mm in width. The contact point 31p2 may have the same external dimensions as the contact point 31p1.
在某些实施例中,接点61t1可具有宽度0.7mm。在某些实施例中,接触点31p1的宽度与的接点61t1的宽度比例可在1-1.5的范围内。In some embodiments, the contact 61t1 may have a width of 0.7 mm. In some embodiments, the ratio of the width of the contact point 31p1 to the width of the contact point 61t1 may be in the range of 1-1.5.
