The above-mentioned essential oil spray device includes a box assembly 1, a cover assembly 2, a plug 4 and a switch assembly. The box assembly 1 includes a liquid storage part 101, the essential oil is filled/placed in the liquid storage part 101. The liquid storage part 101 is provided with a liquid filling port 102 through which the essential oil can be added to the liquid storage part 101. Therefore, after the essential oil in the liquid storage part 101 is used up, it can be added directly, without replacing the entire box assembly 1, and the cost of use is lower. A plug 4 is provided at the liquid filling port 102 for blocking the liquid filling port 102 to prevent essential oil from leaking from the liquid filling port 102 during normal use. The plug 4 is made of fluorosilicone material, the fluorosilicone material will not expand under long-term immersion in the essential oil like ordinary silicone materials, it has good high temperature resistance and can be used under high temperature conditions when the hair dryer blows hot air. The cover assembly 2 is sealingly connected to the liquid storage part 101, the cover assembly 2 is provided with a spray port 201, the spray port 201 is provided with an atomizing member 3, and the atomizing member 3 can atomize the essential oil in the liquid storage part 101 and spray it out from the spray port 201.

The outer cover 203 has a first protrusion protruding downward, and a groove is provided in the first protrusion. The inner cover 202 has a second protrusion protruding upward, and a groove is also provided in the second protrusion. The positions of the first protrusion and the second protrusion are opposite (face to each other). The atomizing member 3 is arranged between the first protrusion and the second protrusion, and the two sealing members 204 on both sides of the atomizing member 3 are respectively arranged in the grooves in the first protrusion and the second protrusion. By arranging the sealing ring 205 and the two seals 204, the connection between the box assembly 1 and the cover assembly 2 is completely sealed, which has good sealing performance and can prevent essential oil from leaking.
The switch assembly includes a first switch 501 and a second switch 502 provided on the connecting part 103. The first switch 501 is electrically connected to the second switch 502, and the second switch 502 is electrically connected to the atomizing member 3. Specifically, the first switch 501 is a manual switch, and the second switch 502 is a micro switch. Before using the essential oil spray device, you first need to turn on the micro switch, then the essential oil spray device is in standby mode. Then if pressing the manual switch, the essential oil spray device can spray essential oil. If the micro switch is turned off, the essential oil spray device will not spray essential oil even if the manual switch is pressed. When not in use for a long time, you can turn off the micro switch to reduce the risk of misoperation causing the essential oil spray device to work.
The essential oil spray device also includes a power supply component. The power supply component includes a battery 601 and a charging port 602 arranged in the annular groove of the connecting part 103.
