以及，容纳空间155的背离开口157的内底壁上具有沿若干凸起1561；若干凸起1561之间具有间隙，以用于形成空气进入保持机构30的通道。
进一步参见图2、图4至图6所示，保持机构30包括：
纵长的保持元件31，内部为中空，是由刚性材质制备的，例如有机聚合物、陶瓷等；保持元件31具有沿纵向方向依次布置的区段311和区段312；其中，区段311的外径小于区段312的外径，进而在它们的外表面之间界定有台阶。装配后，保持元件31的区段311由开口157伸入至容纳空间155内，并使区段311背离区段312的端部抵靠于若干凸起1561上；以及装配后，保持元件31外表面的台阶抵靠于内壳150的上端，并且区段312裸露于容纳空间155外，并被纵向夹持固定于第一壳体10和内壳150之间。
以及在使用中，由保持元件31内的中空界定用于接收气溶胶生成制品1000的腔室；以及，区段311在背离区段312的端部非敞开的，以用于供接收于区段311内的气溶胶生成制品1000抵靠形成止动；并且，区段311在背离区段312的端部上具有孔眼，以供加热器40穿入至保持元件31的气溶胶生成制品1000中进行加热。
以及，保持元件31在区段312的端部是敞开的，并与近端110的接收口111是相对的；进而由接收口111插入的气溶胶生成制品1000能通过保持元件31的敞开端插入至保持元件31内。
以及，保持元件31的内壁上设置有若干沿纵向延伸的卡凸3111，以用于当气溶胶生成制品1000被接收于保持元件31内时，能稳定地夹持和紧固气溶胶生成制品1000。若干卡凸3111均是沿纵向延伸的；以及，若干卡凸3111是沿保持元件31的周向方向间隔布置的。以及，若干卡凸3111的宽度是沿保持元件31的径向方向依次减小的锥形形状。
若干卡凸3111在与气溶胶生成制品1000的表面区域接触时，会挤压或压缩气溶胶生成制品1000的表面区域，从而夹紧气溶胶生成制品1000。
以及保持元件31的区段312的内表面上设置有台阶3122和定位卡槽3121；
保持机构30还包括有柔性的保持元件32；保持元件32是硅胶或热塑性弹性体等柔性材质制备的；该保持元件32基本是环形形状，并具有沿径向向外延伸出的定位卡凸322；在装配后，保持元件32被容纳和保持于区段312内并抵靠于台阶3122上；同时，保持元件32的定位卡凸322被伸入至定位卡槽3121内，一方面提供装配中的定位，又一方面阻止保持元件32相对于管状31旋转。
以及进一步地，保持元件32具有若干沿径向方向向内延伸出的夹持卡凸321，以至少部分夹持接收于保持元件31的气溶胶生成制品1000。在实施中，保持元件32的夹持卡凸321是柔性材质的，则夹持卡凸321对气溶胶生成制品1000的夹持比卡凸3111对气溶胶生成制品1000具有更大的摩擦力，夹持是更加稳定的。若干夹持卡凸321同样是沿周向方向间隔布置的。
以及进一步地，保持机构30还包括有盖33，被构造成是较薄的片状体。装配后，盖33用于对保持元件31的敞口部分进行遮盖，以阻止保持元件32从保持元件31的敞口松脱或掉出等。
进一步参见图2、图4至图6所示，驱动元件60与保持机构30之前是通过带轮传动的方式连接的，以通过带轮传动的方式驱动保持机构30转动。其中，以上“带轮传动(belt drive，或者又称带传动)”是机械术语，是指利用张紧在带轮上的柔性带进行运动或动力传递的一种机械传动。“带轮传动”根据传动原理的不同，包括有靠带与带轮间的摩擦力传动的摩擦型带传动，也有靠带与带轮上的齿相互啮合传动的同步型带传动。在图2、图4至图6实施例中的“带轮传动”即为摩擦型带传动。
在图2、图4至图6的实施例中具体地包括：
可转动的轮62，位于内壳150与第一壳体10之间；并且可转动的轮62的轴向是与保持机构30的轴向平行布置的；
驱动元件60的转轴61从开口158伸出容纳空间154外，并插入至可转动的轮62的中孔621内；
以及，环形的传动带63例如柔性的皮带，与可转动的轮62和保持元件31的区段312的圆周表面的一部分接合，从而使它们之间形成带轮传动；在实施中，可转动的轮62被作为带轮传动中的主动轮，保持元件31的区段312形成带轮传动中的从动轮。具体地实施中，可转动的轮62圆周表面设置有围绕可转动的轮62的槽622、以及保持元件31的区段312的圆周表面设置有围绕区段312的槽3123，环形的传动带63是装配于槽622、以及槽3123内进行传动的。则当驱动元件60的转轴61转动时，即可通过可转动的轮62带动保持元件31绕中心轴线m转动。
或者在又一些变化的实施中，驱动元件60与保持元件31之间通过摩擦轮传动、链条传动、齿轮传动、蜗轮蜗杆、摆杆机构、连杆机构等传动机构进行传动，进而使驱动元件60驱动保持元件31转动。
或者在又一些变化的实施中，驱动元件60是气缸或液缸等。
以及在又一些实施中，可转动的轮62是齿轮。齿轮传动相比带轮传动在转动的角度控制准确上是更加有利的；以及，齿轮传动的齿轮部件的生产加工和制备的精度上可能是比带轮更难的。
保持元件31的区段312能够响应于驱动元件60的转轴61和/或可转动的轮62的旋转而旋转。以及，驱动元件60的转轴61和/或可转动的轮62的旋转能通过传动带63传送到保持元件31。

或者在又一个变化的实施中，驱动元件60e通过驱动加热器40e沿保持元件31e的轴向方向相对于保持元件31e移动。
以及在一些实施中，保持元件31e的移动是被限制于气雾生成装置100的外壳内的；保持元件31e在移动中始终不伸出是外壳之外。以及用户是无法接触操作保持元件31e移动的。以及，在该实施中，保持元件31e与外壳是不连接的；保持元件31e被驱动时在外壳的纵向方向移动时，外壳的尺寸或长度是不变的。
以及在实施中，加热器40e具有大约15～20mm的长度；保持元件31e保持气溶胶生成制品1000的距离大约控制2～5mm即可；即无需使气溶胶生成制品1000基本从气雾生成装置内提取出或移出，也无需使气溶胶生成制品1000与加热器40e基本是大致分离。
以及在一些实施中，驱动元件60e驱动保持元件31e沿轴向的移动是往复进行的；以及在移动后还需要将保持元件31e复位至图16所示的初始状态。
以及在实施中，用户仅能通过夹持或操作气溶胶生成制品1000裸露于外壳外的部分，进而将气溶胶生成制品1000从外壳/腔室/保持机构内移除。
在一个实施中，驱动元件60/60a/60b/60c/60d/60e驱动气溶胶生成制品1000相对于加热器40/40a/40b/40c/40d/40e的移动是由电路板22的控制器按照预定时间进行控制的。
例如图17示出了一个实施例中对气溶胶生成制品1000在预定时间内的加热曲线的示意图。以及，加热过程中电路板22的控制器控制加热器40/40a/40b/40c/40d/40e提供给气溶胶生成制品1000的加热温度是按照预定的加热曲线进行的。在一些实施中，加热曲线是在预定时间内的，预定时间是基于气溶胶生成制品1000所能产生的气溶胶的量、以及用户所乐于接受的抽吸时长(例如4min)所设置的。例如图17中该加热曲线，加热过程包括：
第一阶段S1：由室温在t1时间内快速升温至第一预设温度T1进行预热，可以称为预热阶段；
第二阶段S2：由第一预设温度T1在t2时间内下降至第二预设温度T2；
第三阶段S3：保持加热温度基本维持在等同于第二预设温度T2相同的第三预设温度直至t3时间结束，使气溶胶生成制品1000稳定在第二预设温度T2下被加热生成供抽吸的气溶胶；抽吸完成后停止向加热使气溶胶生成制品1000自然冷却。或者在又一些变化的实施中，第三阶段S3的抽吸过程中，第三预设温度相比第二预设温度T2可以更高或更低。
则对应在一些实施中，控制器控制驱动元件60/60a/60b/60c/60d/60e驱动气溶胶生成制品1000相对于加热器40/40a/40b/40c/40d/40e的移动，是按照一定的频次或频率或预定的间隔时间进行的。则可以减少或阻止在加热过程中气溶胶生成制品1000与加热器40/40a/40b/40c/40d/40e的粘附或粘结强度。例如，它们的相对移动是按照20～180s的时间间隔驱动的。更加优选地，是按照120s或60s或30s的时间间隔驱动的。
或者在又一些实施中，控制器控制气溶胶生成制品1000与加热器40/40a/40b/40c/40d/40e的相对移动，是在加热曲线的特定时间内进行的。例如在一个实施例中，在第一阶段S1的预热阶段中(0～t1时间)，驱动气溶胶生成制品1000与加热器40/40a/40b/40c/40d/40e进行一次相对移动，以减少在预热阶段的高温下产生的粘附；以及，在第三阶段S3(t2～t3时间)驱动进行至少两次相对移动。以及，在距离第三阶段S3结束之前的预定时间内驱动进行至少一次移动，以便在抽吸结束时用户能立刻拔除气溶胶生成制品1000。以及，在第二阶段S2中是禁止或阻止驱动产生相对移动的。
以及在一些优选的实施中，在第三阶段S3(t2～t3时间)驱动进行的至少两次移动中，有一次是在距离第三阶段S3结束之前的预定时间内进行的。以及在一些优选的实施中，距离第三阶段S3结束之前的预定时间为20s；更加优选地，距离第三阶段S3结束之前的预定时间为10s；更加优选地，预定时间为5s；更加优选地，预定时间为3s。
则以上通过在邻近加热过程的结束时刻t3之前的预定时间内进行一次移动，以便在抽吸结束后用户即能拔除气溶胶生成制品1000。
以及，在实施中在第三阶段S3(t2～t3时间)驱动进行的至少两次移动中的至少一次是在t2时刻到距离第三阶段S3结束之前的预定时间之间的，例如(t2～t3减去预定时间)。
在实施中，以上“一次移动”是由驱动元件的转轴开始转动进而驱动保持元件和加热器相对于彼此由静态转为动态、以及当驱动元件的转轴停止转动使得保持元件和加热器再由动态再回复至静态的过程。或者说，“一次移动”是保持元件和加热器相对彼此从静止开始移动，而后重新回复到静止。当然，在“一次移动”中保持元件和加热器的相对移动基本是连续或不间断的。
在一些实施中，“一次移动”可以是沿着一个固定方向的；或者“一次相对移动”可以是沿着相反的两个方向交替或往复的。
或者在一些实施中，“一次移动”的移动时间控制为1～10s；更加优选地，“一次移动”的移动时间控制为2～6s。
或者在又一些实施中，控制器控制气溶胶生成制品1000与加热器40/40a/40b/40c/40d/40e的相对移动，是基于监测加热结束以后进行的。例如，控制器控制在对气溶胶生成制品1000的加热过程未结束前(例如0～t3时间)阻止相对移动，以避免影响加热。以及，当加热结束后，在预定时间内(例如3s内；又例如5s内；又例如10s内；又例如20s内)控制进行相对移动，对于抽吸结束之后用户将气溶胶生成制品1000的移除是有利的。
或者在又一些实施中，在抽吸即将结束前例如在早于t3时间的10s内或20s内，控制器控制进行相对移动，对于抽吸结束之后用户将气溶胶生成制品1000的移除是有利的。
以及在又一些实施中，当按照以上预定时间的加热曲线对气溶胶生成制品1000的加热过程结束后，还可以控制驱动将相对移动过的保持元件和加热器进行复位，使它们恢复至移动之前的初始位置。
以及，在又一个实施例中，控制器控制进行相对移动是避开用户对的气溶胶生成制品1000的抽吸动作的。具体地，控制器通过监测在抽吸过程中用户抽吸的气流流经加热器40/40a/40b/40c/40d/40e时导致的温度下降，进而确定用户的抽吸动作；进而在监测到用户的抽吸动作时，阻止相对移动。
以及在又一个具体的实施例中，控制器根据提供在抽吸过程中提供给加热器40/40a/40b/40c/40d/40e功率，与将加热温度保持于加热曲线的预设温度的目标功率的差值确定用户的抽吸动作。
以及，在又一个变化的实施中，气溶胶生成制品1000相对于加热器40/40a/40b/40c/40d/40e的移动，是由用户控制进行驱动的。例如，气雾生成装置100的外壳上设置有输入元件(图中未示出)，以供用户操作形成输入信号；而后控制器根据用户的输入信号控制相对移动。在一些实施中，输入元件选自机械按钮、膜按钮、机械开关、旋转编码器、拨号盘、旋钮、电容式触摸按钮、电阻式触摸按钮、操纵杆、滑块、触发器按钮、触摸屏和磁开关。
实施例二
本申请一实施例提供了一种气溶胶生成装置100，如图18-图20所示，气溶胶生成装置100设置有第一腔室10A、加热器40、电路板22、电芯21及保持元件31，电芯21与加热器40均与电路板22电连接，电路板22设置有气溶胶生成装置100的控制器，从而气溶胶生成装置100的控制器可控制电芯21向加热器40提供功率。保持元件31限定形成有第二腔室51，同时保持元件31容纳在第一腔室10A中，第二腔室51用于接收并保持与气溶胶生成装置100配套使用的气溶胶生成制品1000，加热器40至少一部分伸入至第二腔室51中，以使加热器40能够插入至气溶胶生成制品1000中进行加热进而产生气溶胶。容易理解，电芯21可以是可充电的电芯或者是不可充电的电芯。
气溶胶生成制品1000优选采用加热时从基质中释放的挥发化合物的含烟草的材料；或者也可以是能够加热之后适合于电加热发烟的非烟草材料。气溶胶生成制品1000优选采用固体基质，可以包括香草叶、烟叶、均质烟草、膨胀烟草中的一种或多种的粉末、颗粒、碎片细条、条带或薄片中的一种或多种；或者，固体基质可以包含附加的烟草或非烟草的挥发性香味化合物，以在基质受热时被释放。本实施例中，气溶胶生成制品1000采用内部填充有烟草材料的烟支进行说明。
如图20所示，加热器40被构造成细长的销钉或针状或片状以便能顺畅的插入至气溶胶生成制品1000中进行加热。在一些实施例中，加热器40是通过供应直流电流产生焦耳热的电阻加热元件。或者在又一些实施中，加热器40是由感受性的材质制备的感受加热元件，能被变化的磁场穿透而发热。或者在又一些实施中，加热器40是通过辐射红外线以加热气溶胶生成制品1000的红外加热元件。
在一些实施例中，如图17和图18所示，第二腔室51的内壁形成有纵向延 伸的凸棱52，凸棱52包括多个并均匀的环绕于第二腔室51的内壁，多个凸棱52围合形成一个夹持空间，从而当气溶胶生成制品1000收容在第二腔室51中时，气溶胶生成制品1000可被该多个凸棱52夹持从而保持在保持元件31中。
请继续参阅图20和图21，气溶胶生成装置100还包括主动轮60A及驱动元件60，驱动元件60包括转轴61，转轴61与主动轮60A连接，转轴61转动带动主动轮60A转动。同时，保持元件31上设置有从动轮31A，从动轮31A转动带动保持元件31转动，由于气溶胶生成制品1000被凸棱52夹持而保持在保持元件31中，气溶胶生成制品1000与凸棱52之间具有足够的摩擦力，从而保持元件31转动时可带动气溶胶生成制品1000同步转动。主动轮60A和从动轮31A是齿轮啮合传动的，从而驱动元件60驱动转轴61转动时，转轴61带动主动轮60A转动，主动轮60A带动从动轮31A转动，进而带动气溶胶生成制品1000相对于加热器40转动，在该相对转动的作用下，可有效缓解气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草粘附在加热器40上。
在一些实施例中，驱动元件60是气缸或液缸等。另外，主动轮60A与保持元件31之间的传动关系也并不局限于通过齿轮的方式啮合传动，在一些实施例中，还可通过链条传动、蜗轮蜗杆、摆杆机构、连杆机构或皮带轮等传动机构进行传动。在一个具体的实施例中，如图22所示的皮带轮传动方式，主动轮60A和从动轮31A均为皮带轮，主动轮60A和从动轮31A之间设置有传动带61B，传动带61B可以是柔性的皮带，从而主动轮60A转动可带动传动带61B运动，传动带61B运动进一步带动从动轮31A转动，进而实现主动轮60A与保持元件31之间的传动。
需要说明的是，在一些实施例中，保持元件31可以直接安装在气溶胶生成装置100的内部，气溶胶生成制品1000插入至保持元件31中，并从保持元件31中提取出来整个阶段中，保持元件31与所述气溶胶生成装置100始终保持连接的。而在其他一些实施例中，保持元件31也可以从气溶胶生成装置100脱离，如图17所示，气溶胶生成装置100包括第一部分80和第二部分90，保持元件31和主动轮60A均设置在第一部分80中，而第一腔室10A、加热器40、电路板22、电芯21和驱动元件60均设置在第二部分90中，第一部分80可与第二部分90相结合或分离，保持元件31部分暴露于第一部分80，当第一部分80与第二部分90结合时，保持元件31收容在第一腔室10A中，用户也可操作第一部分80进而将第一部分80与第二部分90分离，同时保持元件31也与第二部分90分离，从而用户可通过操作第一部分80来提取气溶胶生成制品1000，此时第一部分80也就类似提烟器的作用。
通过将保持元件31和第二部分90构造成可分离，一方面可将保持元件31从第一腔室10A中取出，方便对第一腔室10A的内壁进行清理。另一方面，也可以将保持元件31单独取出来进行清洁。但在气溶胶生成制品1000插入至保持元件31中，并从保持元件31中提取出整个阶段中，保持元件31也是与所述气溶胶生成装置100是保持连接的。
在一些实施例中，气溶胶生成装置100中也可以不设置主动轮60A，保持元件31上也不需要设置与主动轮60A传动的从动轮31A，只需要将驱动元件60的转轴61插入至保持元件31中即可，转轴61转动即可带动保持元件31转动，进而带动气溶胶生成制品1000转动。或者在一些实施例中，保持元件31不需要转动，而是让加热器40转动，同样可使气溶胶生成制品1000和加热器40之间相对转动。例如，加热器40通常设置有底座，此时可将驱动元件60的转轴 61插入至加热器40的底座中，转轴61转动带动底座转动，底座转动进一步带动加热器40转动。
在一些实施例中，请继续参阅图21，保持元件31具有供气溶胶生成制品1000进入第二腔室51的开口端54，从动轮31A上的齿轮531环绕开口端54设置，将齿轮531设置在保持元件31的开口端54处，可方便气溶胶生成装置100其他部件的结构设计。
在一些实施例中，从动轮31A与保持元件31是一体成型的，以减小气溶胶生成装置100的装配工序，进而提高气溶胶生成装置100的组装效率。当然，在一些其他实施例中，从动轮31A也可以独立的部件，通过固定装置固定在保持元件31上，只需要使从动轮31A转动的时候带动保持元件31转动即可。
请继续参阅图17，图17示出了上述实施例中气溶胶生成制品100在预定时间内的加热曲线的示意图。气溶胶生成装置100在工作过程中，电路板22上的控制器控制加热器40是按照预定的加热曲线进行的。在一些实施中，加热曲线是在预定时间内的，预定时间是基于气溶胶生成制品1000所能产生的气溶胶的量、以及用户所乐于接受的抽吸时长(例如4min)所设置的。例如图17中该加热曲线，加热过程包括：
第一阶段S1：由室温或者初始温度在t1时间内快速升温至第一预设温度T1；
第二阶段S2：由第一预设温度T1在t2时间内下降至第二预设温度T2；
第三阶段S3：保持加热温度基本维持在第二预设温度T2直至t3时间结束，使气溶胶生成制品1000稳定在第二预设温度T2下被加热生成供抽吸的气溶胶，抽吸完成后停止向加热使气溶胶生成制品1000自然冷却。加热曲线的形状并不局限于图17所示的形状，在其他一些实施例中，第二阶段S2中的第二预设温度T2也可以与第一预设温度T1是基本相同的，也可以高于第一预设温度T1。
需要说明的是，第一阶段S1和第二阶段S2统称为预热阶段，而第三阶段S3可称为抽吸阶段，当预热阶段完毕之后，电路板22的控制器控制反馈元件向用户提供反馈，告知用户预热已经完毕可以开始进行抽吸，反馈元件可以是震动马达或者指示灯等。在抽吸阶段时，控制器控制电芯21向加热器40提供一个较小的功率，以将温度基本维持在第二预设温度T2，该功率小于预热阶段时电芯21向加热器40提供的功率。
预热阶段是指，可以使气溶胶生成制品1000的温度增加以达到产生令人满意的量的气溶胶的温度，在预热阶段结束时，气溶胶生成制品1000内部的固体烟草可能已经达到了释放烟草中所含挥发性成分的温度。在预热阶段中，提供给加热器40的功率可以取决于通过控制器所设定的第一预热温度。也可以是，在预热阶段中，提供预设的功率使加热器40达到第一预热温度。其中第一预设温度并不局限在一个值，通常可以是一个温度范围内。
抽吸阶段是指气溶胶可以由气溶胶生成装置100以令人满意的速率生成，并且可以由用户吸入。在抽吸阶段中，可以将温度基本维持在第二预设温度T2，其中第二预设温度并不局限在一个值，通常可以是一个温度范围内；也可以通过降低提供给加热器40的功率，使得加热器40的温度下降到第三预设温度T3，其中第三预设温度T3小于第二预设温度T2；也可以是通过增加提供给加热器40的功率，使得加热元件的温度上升到第四预设温度T4，其中第四预设温度T4大于第二预设温度T2。
基于上述实施例所描述的气溶胶生成装置100，本申请一实施例还提供了一 种气溶胶生成装置100的控制方法，以在预定时间内控制驱动元件60驱动保持元件31或者加热器40转动，以使保持元件31中的气溶胶生成制品1000和加热器40之间相对转动，通过该相对的转动作用来缓解气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草粘附在加热器40上。
具体的，所述方法包括：在所述预热阶段，控制所述驱动元件60，以驱动所述保持元件31或所述加热器40中的一者相对于另一者进行转动，并在所述预热阶段完毕时或者结束之前控制所述驱动元件60停止工作。
根据上述实施例的描述，加热器40的加热曲线是由电路板22的控制器决定的，而驱动元件60也与控制器电连接，因此控制器可完全根据加热器40的当前状态来控制驱动元件60是否工作。
由于预热阶段通常时间较短(30S之内)，加热器40在短时间内即可升至释放气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草所含挥发性成分的温度，此时气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草极易粘附在加热器40上，固在此阶段控制驱动元件60驱动保持元件31或加热器40中的一者相对另一者转动，可使气溶胶生成制品1000与加热器40之间产生相对的运动，进而在相对的转动作用下可有效缓解气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草粘附在加热器40上。具体的，可在预热阶段完毕时或者在预热阶段结束之前控制驱动元件60停止工作。另一方面，由于第三阶段为抽吸阶段，如果在此时控制驱动元件60工作，容易影响用户的抽吸，导致给用户带来不良的使用体验。
此外，由于烟草中的烟叶通常含有水分，也叫烟叶水分或烟叶含水量，在该水分的作用下，烟叶被加热就会粘附在加热器40上，而在预热阶段烟叶中的水分已经被蒸发了，到了抽吸阶段时烟叶中的含水量非常低，此时烟叶在高温条件下也不容易粘附在加热器40上，因此可仅需在预热阶段中控制保持元件31或加热器40相对的转动即可。可理解的，在其他一些实施例中，为了充分缓解气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草粘附在加热器40上，也可额外在抽吸阶段控制保持元件31或加热器40进行相对的转动。
在一些实施例中，所述方法还包括：在所述预热阶段开始时，控制所述驱动元件60，以驱动所述保持元件31或所述加热器40中的一者相对于另一者进行转动。
在预热阶段开始时即控制驱动元件60工作，可使加热器40刚开始加热时，保持元件31和加热器40之间就产生了相对的转动，随着加热器40的温度逐渐升高，由于保持元件31和加热器40之间存在相对的转动，气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草难以粘附在加热器40上。而当在预热阶段开始时控制驱动元件60开始工作，且在预热阶段结束时控制驱动元件60停止工作，可使驱动元件60在整个预热阶段都在工作，也就是说保持元件31和加热器40在整个预热阶段都存在相对的转动，从而对缓解气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草粘附在加热器40上更加有利。
另外，控制驱动元件60在预热阶段开始时启动工作，而在预热阶段结束时停止工作，也可以作为一个反馈信息告知用户，即用户观察到气溶胶生成制品1000停止转动之后就可以开始抽吸了，也即气溶胶生成制品1000转动停止的时候就代表了预热阶段已经结束，加热器40进入抽吸阶段，用户可以开始抽吸。而如果在预热阶段结束之前停止转动，则需要额外的反馈信息告知用户预热阶段已经结束。
在一些实施例中，所述方法还包括：控制所述驱动元件60，以驱动所述保 持元件31带动所述气溶胶生成制品1000相对于所述加热器40转动。
由于加热器40通常具有电极引线，该电极引线与电路板22进行电连接，因此加热器40转动时候会导致电极引线也会同步转动，进而导致电极引线会缠绕在一起，因此，优选的设置保持元件31转动，进而无需对加热器40与主板20的电连接方式进行改进。
在进一步的实施例中，为使保持元件31转动时能更好的缓解气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草粘附在加热器40上，保持元件31转动时转动时间是不小于15S的，或者保持元件31的转动圈数不少于3圈。保持元件31的转动时间越长或者转动圈数越多，对缓解气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草粘附在加热器40上越有利，但如果保持元件31转动时间或转动圈数过长，则相应耗费的电量也就越多。或者在进一步的实施例中，保持元件31的转动方向可以包括逆时针转动和顺时针转动两个方向。例如保持元件31的转动时间为15S，则在前7S内可以逆时针方向转动，在后8S内则顺时针方向转动。或者保持元件31也可以每隔一个预定时间转换转动方向。通过转动方向的转换也可以进一步的缓解气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草粘附在加热器40上。
在一些实施例中，为在保持元件31或者加热器40转动时，气溶胶生成装置100能向用户提供转动的反馈信息，从而提高用户的使用体验。所述方法还可以包括：
在所述保持元件31或所述加热器40中的一者相对于另一者进行转动的过程中，驱动所述灯光组件产生灯光效果，其中所述灯光效果不同于在抽吸阶段所产生的灯光效果。
具体的，气溶胶生成装置100中可以设置灯光组件，灯光组件与电路板22的控制器电连接，控制器可以控制灯光组件产生相应的灯光效果。例如，在抽吸阶段，此时保持元件31或加热器40均已停止转动，控制器可以控制灯光组件产生红光。而当保持元件31或者加热器40在预热阶段转动时，控制器可以控制灯光组件产生与抽吸阶段不同的灯光效果，比如产生蓝光或者绿光等。在一些实施例中，还可以通过控制灯光效果来显示当前保持元件31或者加热器40的转动速度，比如蓝光时转动速度较快，而绿光时转动速度较慢。或者在一些实施例中，通过灯光效果还可以显示保持元件31或加热器40是否在转动，比如蓝光时保持元件31或加热器40均没有转动，而绿光时保持元件31或加热器40均在转动。
或者在一些实施例中，反馈信息还包括振动反馈，此时气溶胶生成装置100中设置有振动反馈元件(图未示)，振动反馈元件与电路板22的控制器电连接，振动反馈元件可以是马达，控制器可控制振动反馈元件振动，
所述方法还包括：驱动所述振动反馈元件产生振动；其中，驱动所述保持元件31带动所述气溶胶生成制品1000停止转动的时序与驱动所述振动反馈元件开始振动的时序同步或者临近同步。
具体的，控制器控制保持元件31的转动时序与控制器控制振动反馈元件的时序是基本相同的，也就是说当保持元件31开始转动时，振动反馈元件也开始振动；而当保持元件31停止转动时，振动反馈元件也停止振动，从而用户可根据振动反馈元件的振动来判断保持元件31是否在转动。
本申请一实施例又提供了一种气溶胶生成装置100的控制方法，以在预定时间内控制驱动元件60驱动保持元件31或者加热器40转动，以使保持元件31中的气溶胶生成制品1000和加热器40之间相对转动，所述方法包括：
在所述加热器40加热周期的前25S之内，控制所述驱动元件60以驱动所述保持元件31或所述加热器40中的一者相对于另一者进行转动。
具体的，加热器40的加热周期包括上述的预热阶段和抽吸阶段，前25S可处于预热阶段内，也可处于抽吸阶段内，如果预热阶段的时间较短，则前25S则会落入抽吸阶段内，而如果预热阶段的时间较长，则前25S则落入在预热阶段内。保持元件31或加热器40可在加热周期前25S内一直转动，也可以在前25内的某个时间段内转动，例如，优选的可以在在加热周期前15～25S内转动。
本申请一实施例又提供了一种气溶胶生成系统的控制方法，气溶胶生成系统包括上述实施例所描述的气溶胶生成装置100及气溶胶生成制品1000，所述方法包括：
控制所述驱动元件60在所述预热阶段驱动所述保持元件31转动，以使所述气溶胶生成制品1000处于旋转状态；控制所述驱动元件60在所述抽吸阶段停止工作，以使所述气溶胶生成制品1000处于静止状态。
具体的，根据上述实施例所描述的，保持元件31可收容并将气溶胶生成制品1000保持在保持元件31的第二腔室51中，从而驱动元件60驱动保持元件31转动的时候，保持元件31可带动气溶胶生成制品1000同步转动，进而使得气溶胶生成制品1000可相对于加热器40处于旋转。因此，可在预热阶段中控制保持元件31转动，使气溶胶生成制品1000在预热阶段处于旋转状态，而在抽吸阶段控制驱动元件60停止工作，使气溶胶生成制品1000在抽吸阶段处于静止状态，可在预热阶段中缓解气溶胶生成制品1000的烟草因高温粘附在加热器40上。
值得说明的是，缓解气溶胶生成制品1000在加热过程中因高温容易粘附在加热器40上20并不局限于将气溶胶生成制品1000和加热器40进行相对转动的方式，在其他一些实施例中，也可以将保持元件31和加热器40之间进行相对的移动，也就是使气溶胶生成制品1000和加热器40之间进行相对的移动，例如可以使气溶胶生成制品1000和加热器40在空间上进行上下、左右或者前后的相对移动，只需要使气溶胶生成制品1000和加热器40之间存在相对的运动即可。
实施例三
本申请一实施例提供了一种气溶胶生成装置100，如图23-图24结合图18所示，气溶胶生成装置100设置有腔室10A、加热器40、电路板22、电芯21及保持元件31，电芯21与加热器40均与电路板22电连接，电路板22上设置有气溶胶生成装置的100的控制器，从而气溶胶生成装置100的控制器可控制电芯21向加热器40提供功率。保持元件31限定形成有第二腔室51，同时保持元件31容纳在腔室10A中，第二腔室51用于接收并保持与气溶胶生成装置100配套使用的气溶胶生成制品1000，也就是说保持元件31可承载着气溶胶生成制品1000一并收容在腔室10A中。加热器40至少一部分伸入至第二腔室51中，以使加热器40能够插入至气溶胶生成制品1000中进行加热进而产生气溶胶。容易理解，电芯21可以是可充电的电芯或者是不可充电的电芯。
气溶胶生成制品1000优选采用加热时从基质中释放的挥发化合物的含烟草的材料；或者也可以是能够加热之后适合于电加热发烟的非烟草材料。气溶胶生成制品1000优选采用固体基质，可以包括香草叶、烟叶、均质烟草、膨胀烟草中的一种或多种的粉末、颗粒、碎片细条、条带或薄片中的一种或多种；或 者，固体基质可以包含附加的烟草或非烟草的挥发性香味化合物，以在基质受热时被释放。本实施例中，气溶胶生成制品1000采用内部填充有烟草材料的烟支进行说明。
加热器40被构造成细长的销钉或针状或片状以便能顺畅的插入至气溶胶生成制品1000中进行加热。在一些实施例中，加热器40是通过供应直流电流产生焦耳热的电阻加热元件。或者在又一些实施中，加热器40是由感受性的材质制备的感受加热元件，能被变化的磁场穿透而发热。或者在又一些实施中，加热器40是通过辐射红外线以加热气溶胶生成制品1000的红外加热元件。
在一些实施例中，如图23和图24所示，第二腔室51的内壁形成有纵向延伸的凸棱52，凸棱52包括多个并均匀的环绕于第二腔室51的内壁，多个凸棱52围合形成一个保持空间，从而当气溶胶生成制品1000收容在第二腔室51中时，气溶胶生成制品1000可被该多个凸棱52夹持从而保持在保持空间中。
请继续参阅图24和图21，保持元件31形成有供气溶胶生成制品1000进入的开口端54，气溶胶生成装置100还包括可转动的轮60A及驱动元件60，驱动元件60包括转轴61，转轴61与可转动的轮60A连接，转轴61转动带动可转动的轮60A转动。同时，保持元件31上设置有从动轮31A，从动轮31A转动带动保持元件31转动，由于气溶胶生成制品1000被凸棱52夹持而保持在第一腔室51中，气溶胶生成制品1000与凸棱52之间具有足够的摩擦力，从而保持元件31转动时可带动气溶胶生成制品1000同步转动。从动轮31A上设置有齿轮531，可转动的轮60A和从动轮31A是齿轮啮合传动的，从而驱动元件70驱动转轴61转动时，转轴61带动可转动的轮60A转动，可转动的轮60A带动从动轮31A转动，进而带动气溶胶生成制品1000相对于加热器40转动，在该相对转动的作用下，可有效缓解气溶胶生成制品1000中的烟草粘附在加热器40上。
在一些实施例中，驱动元件60是气缸或液缸等。另外，可转动的轮60A与保持元件31之间的传动关系也并不局限于通过齿轮的方式啮合传动，在一些实施例中，还可通过链条传动、蜗轮蜗杆、摆杆机构、连杆机构或皮带轮等传动机构进行传动。在一个具体的实施例中，如图22所示的皮带轮传动方式，可转动的轮60A和从动轮31A均为皮带轮，可转动的轮60A和从动轮31A之间设置有传动带61B，传动带61B可以是柔性的皮带，从而可转动的轮60A转动可带动传动带61B运动，传动带61B运动进一步带动从动轮31A转动，进而实现可转动的轮60A与保持元件31之间的传动。
请继续参阅图24，气溶胶生成装置100具有沿其长度方向相对设置的近端110与远端120，由于气溶胶生成装置100的体积通常设计的较小以方便用户随身携带，驱动元件60及电路板22均是沿着气溶胶生成装置100的长度方向延伸的，以尽量减小驱动元件60和电路板22所占据的结构空间，从而可避免因在气溶胶生成装置100中增加驱动元件60而使气溶胶生成装置100的体积增大较多。
在一些实施例中，如图25所示，为便于充分利用结构空间，电路板22包括第一部分22A和第二部分22B，第一部分22A和第二部分22B是电连接的，以便第一部分22A和第二部分22B之间相互通信，且第一部分22A和第二部分22B是呈不同方向布置的，也就是第一部分22A和第二部分32不是在一块完整的电路板22上。第一部分22A和第二部分22B分别设置有相应的电子元器件，将电路板22拆分成第一部分22A和第二部分22B，可无需使所有电子元器件集成在一块电路板上，从而增加电路板22的体积，不方便其他部件的结构设计。
在进一步的实施例中，请继续参阅图25，第一部分22A和第二部分22B的连接部33是通过FPC(Flexible Printed Circuit，柔性电路板22)连接的。由于FPC具有可自由弯曲或折叠、质量轻、厚度薄以及易于装连的特点，因此使用FPC连接一方面可以提高生产组装时的效率，另一方面还可维持气溶胶生成装置100的小体积需求。
在进一步的实施例中，请继续参阅图25，为进一步方便生产组装和节省结构空间，第一部分22A和第二部分22B是相互垂直的。
在进一步的实施例中，第一部分22A被配置成流过小电流信号，而第二部分22B被配置成流过大电流信号，例如第一部分22A可以与LED灯311或开关按钮312等小功率器件电连接，而第二部分22B则与加热器40或电芯21等较大功率器件电连接，通过此方式，可以将小电流信号和大电流信号分开以降低相互之间的干扰。
在进一步的实施例中，如图26所示，第一部分22A和第二部分22B界定形成有容纳空间34，驱动元件60则延伸于该容纳空间34中，从而无需将驱动元件60设置在其他地方，以便进一步的节省结构空间，对维持气溶胶生成装置100的小体积需求是有利的。
在一些实施例中，请继续参阅图24，为方便电路板22和驱动元件60进行电连接，电路板22和驱动元件60设置在保持元件31的同一侧，也就是设置在腔室10A的同一侧，从而使电路板22靠近驱动元件60，方便驱动元件60和电路板22进行电连接。在进一步的实施例中，为避免加热器40的高温传递给电路板22的电子元器件，从而影响电路板22上电子元器件的可靠性，驱动元件60是延伸在腔室10A和电路板22之间的，以使电路板22尽量远离腔室10A，防止腔室10A中的加热器40的高温传递给电路板22上的电子元器件。
在一些实施例中，可转动的轮60A是设置在气溶胶生成装置100的近端处的，以便驱动元件60的转轴61伸入驱动可转动的轮60A转动。另外，将可转动的轮60A设置在气溶胶生成装置100的近端处对节省空间结构也是有利的。
在进一步的实施例中，气溶胶生成装置100的近端壳体处至少一部分是透明的，以便可转动的轮60A转动时和/或保持元件31上的从动轮31A转动时，用户可直接通过该透明部分观察到，从而可提升气溶胶生成装置100的科技感和炫酷感。
需要说明的是，本申请的说明书及其附图中给出了本申请的较佳的实施例，但并不限于本说明书所描述的实施例，进一步地，对本领域普通技术人员来说，可以根据上述说明加以改进或变换，而所有这些改进和变换都应属于本申请所附权利要求的保护范围。
