This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202110302451.0 filed Mar. 22, 2021, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of atomization systems and, specifically, relates to an atomizer, an atomization system and an operation method of the atomization system.
An electronic cigarette is an electronic product imitating a cigarette, with the same appearance, smoke, taste and feel as the cigarette. The electronic cigarette is a kind of atomizer driven by rechargeable lithium polymer battery, which can heat the smoke oil in the oil tank and turn nicotine into steam for users to smoke.
At present, atomizer, as a main component of the electronic cigarette, some atomizers can't fill cigarette oil repeatedly, so that the electronic cigarette can't be reused, and some atomizers are provided with oil filling holes, which can fill cigarette oil again, but it is easy to cause oil leakage, which often leads to scrapping and discarding atomizers, thereby not only increasing the consumption cost of users, but also easily causing waste of resources.
Therefore, there is an urgent need for an atomizer to solve the above technique problems.

According to the atomizer provided by the present disclosure, the reservoir stores a specific liquid, and the flexible block piece 3 is filled in the opening 11 to play a sealing role and prevent the specific liquid from flowing out through the opening. When the specific liquid is consumed, the specific liquid can be injected into the interior of the reservoir 2 by the injection needle of the injector penetrating into the flexible block piece 3, thereby achieving reuse of the atomizer. Therefore, the atomizer provided by the present disclosure can be used for many times, and waste caused by liquid leakage is avoided, thereby reducing consumption costs and saving resources. In some embodiments, the specific liquid is, for example, but not limited to, cigarette oil or medicine. The atomizer should not be limited to the application of electronic cigarettes, but also can be used as medical atomization inhalers.
The present embodiment is further a limitation based on embodiment one.
The flexible block piece 3 is made of a flexible plastic material or a flexible silica gel material. The flexible block piece 3 can not only play a very good sealing role, but also can be penetrated by an injector, and does not leak after injection, and a specific liquid can be repeatedly injected. In the present embodiment, the flexible block piece 3 is made of a hospital-level flexible plastic material, similar to a medical infusion bottle stopper, and can be penetrated into an injection needle for many times without leaking liquid.
The atomizer provided by the present disclosure further includes a fixing piece, where the fixing piece is sealed outside the opening 11 and is attached to the flexible block piece 3, and the fixing piece is provided with a through hole. The fixing piece is sealed outside the opening 11, and is used for fixing the flexible block piece 3, so as to prevent an injection needle from moving the flexible block piece 3 when injecting the specific liquid, thereby affecting the sealing performance of the reservoir 2. The through hole in the fixing piece is used for the injection needle passing through, so that the injection needle can smoothly penetrate into the flexible block piece 3. Optionally, the fixing piece may be a mesh structure, and mesh holes on the fixing piece can allow the injection needle to pass through, The multiple injections are carried out through different mesh holes in sequence, so that leakage liquid caused by the injection needle penetrating into the same position for many time to enlarge the perforation of the flexible block piece 3 is avoided.
As shown in
The atomizer provided by the present disclosure further a nozzle 6, where the nozzle 6 is connected to one side of the atomization pipe 1. The atomization pipe 1 further includes a through cavity 12, and the through cavity 12 is communicated with the reservoir 2 and the nozzle 6. Gas formed after atomizing the specific liquid is sucked out or discharged through the nozzle 6.
As shown in
The present embodiment is further a limitation based on embodiment two.
As shown in
The atomizer provided by the present embodiment further includes an end cap 7, and the end cap 7 covers the nozzle 6. The end cap 7 can prevent the nozzle 6 from being contaminated by foreign objects, and keep the nozzle 6 clean and sanitary. The end cap 7 and the nozzle 6 may be clamped or threaded, which not only ensures the firmness of the connection, but also facilitates disassembly.
As shown in
Specifically, the base 10 includes a rod body 101, a coupling slot 103 and a battery 102. The coupling slot 103 is located at one end of the rod body 101, the battery 102 is disposed in the rod body 101, and one end of the atomization pipe 1 provided with the flexible block piece 3 is configured to be detachably coupled in the coupling slot 103. The rod body 101 is further provided with a control circuit, and the control circuit is electrically connected to the battery 102. When the docking portion 14 is coupled in the coupling slot 103, the conductive contacts 4 disposed on the docking portion 14 contacts the control circuit to achieve electrical connection, supply power to the heating coil, and achieve conductive atomization of the atomization system.
In use, the base 10 is connected to the atomizer to form the atomization system, and the flexible block piece 3 is located inside the atomization system. When the specific liquid needs to be injected, the atomizer is removed from the base 10 to expose the flexible block piece 3 so as to facilitate the injection of the specific liquid. In some embodiments, the flexible block piece 3 may also be disposed on an outer surface of the atomizer without contacting the base 10; in this manner, a user may inject the specific liquid into the reservoir 2 by inserting the injection needle into the flexible block piece 3 while the atomizer is still connected to the base 10. The atomization pipe 1 may be threaded to the rod body 101 by internal and external threads. In some embodiments, the atomization system is an electronic cigarette, the base 10 is a cigarette rod, and the atomizer is provided with a smoke bomb, and the reservoir 2 is used for storing smoke oil. In some embodiments, the atomization system is used for atomizing medicines, the base 10 is a control and power supply device and the reservoir 2 of the atomizer is used for storing medicines.
As shown in
In S1, an atomization system is provided. The atomization system is, for example, but not limited to, the atomization system of embodiment four. The user may atomize the specific liquid in the reservoir 2 through the base 10 and the atomizer of the atomization system, so as to inhale the atomized medicine or smoke oil through the user's respiratory system. When it is necessary to add or refill the specific liquid in the reservoir 2, the user may inject the specific liquid into the reservoir 2 by performing the following steps.
In S2, an injector containing the specific liquid is provided, where the injector includes an injection needle. The injector may include a syringe and a syringe needle in the related art.
In S3, the injection needle is inserted into a flexible block piece 3 of an atomizer such that the injection needle extends into the reservoir 2.
In S4, the specific liquid contained in the injector is injected into the reservoir 2.
In S5, the injector is separated. When the user injects the specific liquid to be added into the reservoir 2 through the injector and the injection needle, the injector may be separated from the atomizer, and the injection needle may also be withdrawn from the flexible block piece 3. Since the flexible block piece 3 is made of flexible material, after the injection needle is withdrawn, the flexible block piece 3 will be restored to an original state without generating pinholes, so that the specific liquid in the reservoir 2 will not leak out. The user may proceed with the following steps, using the atomization system to atomize the specific liquid in the reservoir 2.
In S6, the atomizer is connected to the base 10.
In S7, the atomization pipe 1 atomizes the specific liquid in the reservoir 2. When the specific liquid in the reservoir 2 needs to be added again, the above steps S2 to S5 can be repeated, so that the atomizer can be reused.
