Furthermore, the first vapor outlet 210a of the atomization device 200 is communicated with the second vapor outlet 110a. That is, the vapor generated by the atomization device 200 within the housing 100 is discharged outside the housing 100 through the second vapor outlet 110a when the cover 400 is opened.
The blowing device 300 is disposed on one side of the second air inlet 210b of the atomization device 200 and directly below an electrode 170b. The blowing device 300 is used to blow the gas entering the housing 100 through the first air inlet 110b into the atomization device 200 through a second through-hole 171b and then the second air inlet 210b, thereby blowing the vapor generated within the atomization device 200 out through the first vapor outlet 210a and the second vapor outlet 110a to the outside of the housing 100, realizing automatic smoking of the electronic atomizer and facilitating user inhalation.

In use, the cover 400 is opened to expose the second vapor outlet 110a. During this process, the first sensing component 510 on the cover 400 moves away from the second sensing component 520 on the housing 100. When the second sensing component 520 senses the movement, it triggers the atomization device 200 and the blowing device 300 to operate, for example, by sending operation signals to the atomization device 200 and the blowing device 300. The blowing device 300 then blows the vapor generated by the atomization device 200 out of the housing 100 for user inhalation.
It can be seen that in the electronic atomizer described above, the blowing device 300 is disposed on one side of the second air inlet 210b of the atomization device 200 and directly below the electrode 170b, to direct the gas entering the housing 100 through the first air inlet 110b, into the atomization device 200 through the second through-hole 171b and the second air inlet 210b and then blow the vapor generated within the atomization device 200 out through the first vapor outlet 210a and the first vapor outlet 110a to realize automatic smoking. Furthermore, the housing 100 is provided with the cover 400 that enables the second vapor outlet 110a to open or close, and the first sensing component 510 is mounted on the cover 400, and the second sensing component 520 is mounted on the housing 100. In this way, when the cover 400 is opened, exposing the second vapor outlet 110a, simultaneously activates the atomization device 200 and the blowing device 300, thereby enabling automatic smoking and facilitating the use of the electronic atomizer.
Furthermore, in some embodiments, the sensing switch 500 is a magnetic sensing switch. For example, the first sensing component 510 may be a magnet, and the second sensing component may be an induction coil.

In some embodiments, the receiving groove 410 accommodates the end of the housing 100 defining the second vapor outlet 110a. For example, when the cover 400 is rotatably mounted on the housing 100, one end of the cover 400 is rotatably connected to the housing 100, while the other end of the cover 400 can move towards or away from the housing 100. When the other end of the cover 400 moves towards the housing 100, the cover 400 closes the second vapor outlet 110a, and at the same time, the end of the housing 100 having the second vapor outlet 110a is accommodated within the receiving groove 410, preventing contamination of the second vapor outlet 110a and the surrounding area of the housing 100.
Certainly, in some embodiments, to facilitate the disposition of the second vapor outlet 110a, a mouthpiece 120 is mounted to the housing 100, and the mouthpiece 120 defines the second vapor outlet 110a. The mouthpiece 120 is detachably connected to the housing 100, such as through snap-fit connection, facilitating assembly between the mouthpiece 120 and the housing 100.
In some embodiments, to facilitate the disposition of the second sensing component 520 and the cooperation between the first sensing component 510 and the second sensing component 520, the second sensing component 520 may also be disposed within the mouthpiece 120.

Specifically, the main board 600 is received within the housing 100 and is electrically connected to the atomization device 200, the blowing device 300, and the second sensing component 520.
During operation, when the cover 400 is opened, the second vapor outlet 110a becomes exposed, the first sensing component 510 moves away from the second sensing component 520. The second sensing component 520 then sends a sensing signal to the main board 600, which activates the atomization device 200 and the blowing device 300 to operate.

Moreover, referring to
When a receiving groove 410 is defined on the cover, the third vapor outlet 420 may communicate with the second vapor outlet 110a through the receiving groove 410.
Specifically, in some embodiments, users can directly inhale through the third vapor outlet 420, causing the microphone 800 to sense the airflow and then control the atomization device 200 to generate vapor for user inhalation without opening the cover 400, providing convenience.
Alternatively, in other embodiments, the atomization device 200 and the blowing device 300 can be controlled through the button 700, so that the vapor generated by the atomization device 200 is sequentially blown out through the first second vapor outlet 210a, the second vapor outlet 110a, and the third vapor outlet 420 outside the cover 400, allowing the users to inhale without opening the cover 400.
In other words, the above-mentioned embodiments provide users with a plurality of usage options for the electronic atomizer.
Additionally, it should be noted that in some embodiments, although the third vapor outlet 420 communicating with the second vapor outlet 110a is disposed on the cover 400, when the cover 400 moves towards a position that opens the second vapor outlet 110a, as the first sensing component 510 moves away from the second sensing component 520, the second sensing component 520 can still enable the atomization device 200 and the blowing device 300 to operate through the sensing signal, realizing automatic smoking when opening the cover 400.

It is understood that when the atomization device 200 is connected to the mounting seat 170a and contacts the electrode 170b, the atomization device 200 is electrically connected to the positive pole and negative pole, allowing the main board 600 to control the operation of the atomization device 200.
Furthermore, since the electrode 170b defines the second through-hole 171b communicated with the second air inlet, and the blowing device 300 is disposed on the side of the second through-hole 171b away from the atomization device 200, the blowing device 300 can blow air through the second through-hole 171b into the atomization device 200.
To ensure that the blowing device 300 can supply sufficient airflow into the atomization device 200, enabling the electronic atomizer to produce sufficient vapor, the electronic atomizer may further include a ventilation component 900, which has a first air outlet 910a and two second air outlets 910b. The first air outlet 910a is attached to the end of the electrode 170b away from the atomization device 200, establishing communication between the first air outlet 910a and the second through hole 171b, for instance, by being sleeved over the electrode 170b.
