[0029] Refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 7, the present disclosure discloses
an atomization assembly of aerosol generating device. The
atomization assembly 100 of aerosol generating device comprises a
shell 110, a sealing seat 120, an atomization core 130, and seal
140. The atomization core 130 are provided with two opposite ends.
One end of the atomization core 130 is connected to the shell 110,
and the other end of the atomization core 130 is mounted on the
sealing seat 120. The shell 110, the sealing seat 120, and the
atomization core 130 are enclosed to form a juice storage cavity
150. The atomization core 130 is provided with a passing juice
orifice 131, wherein the seal 140 comprise a sealing part 141 in
the juice storage cavity 150 and a push rod 142 connected to the
sealing part 141. The sealing part 141 is arranged surround
peripheral surface of the atomization core 130 for covering the
passing juice orifice 131, and free end of the push rod 142 is
slidably arranged through the sealing seat 120 and exposed outside
the sealing seat 120.
[0030] Specifically, the shell 110 has an end with opening. The
sealing seat 120 is mounted at the open end of the shell 110, and
the sealing seat 120 seals the open end of the shell 110. The
atomization core 130 is located between the shell 110 and the
sealing seat 120. The atomization core 130 is hollow to form an air
flow channel. The shell 110 is provided with a suction port which
communicates with the air flow channel, and the sealing seat 120 is
provided with an air hole which communicates with the air flow
channel. The atomization core 130, the sealing seat 120, and the
shell 110 are enclosed to form a juice storage cavity 150. The
juice storage cavity 150 is used to store the atomization base
material. The atomization matrix can be tobacco juice, and the
atomization core 130 heats the atomization base material to
generate aerosol for users to smoke. In this technical scheme, the
atomization base material is tobacco juice, which is used as an
example. The passing juice orifice 131 is arranged on the side wall
of the atomization core 130, and the passing juice orifice 131 is
arranged along the radial direction of the atomization core 130.
Without consideration of the action of the seal 140, the passing
juice orifice 131 will communicate with the juice storage cavity
150.
[0031] In some embodiments, the sealing part 141 of said seal 140
is arranged inside the juice storage cavity 150. The sealing part
141 is abutted against the atomization core 130, and the sealing
part 141 closes the passing juice orifice 131 to avoid juice
leaking through the passing juice orifice 131 to the outside of the
atomization assembly 100 when the atomization assembly 100 is
standing or long-distance transportation. The leakage may cause the
waste of tobacco juice and tobacco juice leakage on the bottom of
atomization assembly 100.
[0032] It is worth to clarify that one end of the push rod 142
connects with the sealing part 141, and the free end of the push
rod 142 exposes outside the sealing seat 120. The push rod 142 can
be arranged in a long strip shape, so that the push rod 142 can be
slidably connected with the sealing seat 120 and moved along the
axial direction of the atomization core 130. The push rod 142 is
integrally formed with the sealing part 141, which increases the
connection strength between the push rod 142 and the sealing part
141, facilitating the structural molding of the seal 140, as well
as the push rod 142's driven of said sealing part 141 to move.
[0033] By adopting above technical scheme, the passing juice
orifice 131 is closed inside the juice storage cavity 150 by the
sealing part 141, which facilitates long-term storage of the
atomization assembly 100 and long-distance transportation of the
atomization assembly 100. When the atomization assembly 100 is
required, the push rod 142 pushes the sealing part 141 towards the
axial direction of the atomization core 130, so that the sealing
part 141 is arranged to expose the passing juice orifice 131, thus
facilitating the tobacco juice to contact with the heat release
element of the atomization core 130 through the passing juice
orifice 131 to generate aerosol for users to smoke. The passing
juice orifice 131 is stagger-arranged with the push rod 142, that
is, the push rod 142 will not cover the passing juice orifice 131
when the push rod 142 pushes the sealing part 141. Under the action
of the sealing part 141 and the push rod 142, the waste of tobacco
juice is avoided and the clean appearance of the atomization
assembly 100 is guaranteed. The push rod 142 outside the
atomization assembly 100 is pushed by user and moves towards the
atomization core 130, so that the seal 140 moves upward and makes
the passing juice orifice 131 communicate with the juice storage
cavity 150.
[0034] In case the atomization assembly 100 needs to be standing
for a period of time and avoid leakage of tobacco juice at the
passing juice orifice 131, the push rod 142 can be pulled to move
outward, that is, the push rod 142 drives the sealing part 141 to
move downward, so that the passing juice orifice 131 can be closed
again by the sealing part 141 to avoid leakage of tobacco juice at
the passing juice orifice 131 again, which improves the user's
experience of atomization assembly 100.
[0035] Since the sealing part 141 is always accommodated in the
juice storage cavity 150, when the push rod 142 pushes the sealing
part 141 to move upward, the sealing part 141 will not lead to the
increase of pressure in the juice storage cavity 150, which will
lead to leakage of tobacco juice at the passing juice orifice
131.
[0036] In an optional embodiment, the sealing part 141 is sleeved
on outer peripheral surface of the atomization core 130. The
sealing part 141 is arranged in a sleeve shape, that is, the
sealing part 141 is hollow, and the side wall of the atomization
core 130 is abutted against the inner wall of the sealing part 141
to achieve the effect of closing the passing juice orifice 131. In
this embodiment, the sealing part 141 is arranged in a round
platform tubular shape. The sealing part 141 is arranged in hollow
along the axis direction. The sealing part 141 is a plastic part.
The small diameter end of the sealing part 141 is mounted on the
top of the atomization core 130, and the large diameter end of the
sealing part 141 is mounted on the bottom of the atomization core
130, which facilitates the push rod 142 to push the sealing part
141 to move upward from the bottom of the sealing part 141. The
sealing part 141 is arranged in a round table shape, which
facilitates tight sealing of the passing juice orifice 131.
[0037] In an optional embodiment, the seal 140 comprises two push
rods 142. The two push rods 142 are symmetrically arranged with
each other, and the push rod 142 and the passing juice orifice 131
are stagger arranged with each other. During the push rod 142 is
pushed upward, the push rod 142 is prevented from closing the
passing juice orifice 131. The two push rods 142 are arranged, so
that the push rod 142 can smoothly drive the sealing part 141 to
move in the juice storage cavity 150.
[0038] In an optional embodiment, the sealing seat 120 comprises a
silicone pad 121, which is airtight connected to the shell 110, the
silicone pad 121 is provided with a mounting hole (not shown in the
figure) for the push rod 142 to pass through, and the push rod 142
is interference fit with the mounting hole (not shown in the
figure). In this embodiment, the side wall of silicone pad 121 is
provided with a plurality of circular convex platforms, and the
circular convex platforms are connected with the side wall at the
bottom end of the shell 110 to close the bottom end of the sealing
seat 120. Mounting holes are arranged at the bottom of the silicone
pad 121, and the push rod 142 is interference fitted with the
mounting hole (not shown in the figure). During the push rod 142
pushes the sealing part 141 along the mounting hole (not shown in
the figure), leakage of tobacco juice from the mounting holes (not
shown in the figure) can be avoided.
[0039] It should be understood that the cross-section of the push
rod 142 can be a variety of shapes. For example, the cross-section
of the push rod 142 can be square or circular. Meanwhile, area of
the cross-section of the push rod 142 is increased along the
direction away from the sealing part 141. During the push rod 142
is pushed, the push rod 142 still tightly fits with the mounting
hole to avoid leakage of tobacco juice.
[0040] In an optional embodiment, the shell 110 comprises a shell
body 111, a juice sealing plug 113, and an outer cover 112. A juice
injection hole 114 is provided on the top of the shell body 111.
After tobacco juice is added into the juice storage cavity 150, the
juice sealing plug 113 is mounted at the juice injection hole 114.
The juice sealing plug 113 is made of silica gel material. The
juice injection hole 114 is closed by the juice sealing plug 113.
The outer cover 112 is connected to the shell body 111 in buckle
connection and covers the juice sealing plug 113. The outer cover
112 is arranged in an arc shape, and a concave hole is provided
concavely on the shell body 111. A clamping platform corresponding
to the concave hole is provided convexly on inner wall of the outer
cover 112. The concave hole is matched with the clamping platform
