Priority is claimed to Chinese Patent Application No. 202122142899.9, filed on September 3, 2021, the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference herein.
The present application relates to the field of vaporization technologies, and in particular, to a vaporizer and an electronic vaporization device.
An aerosol is a colloidal dispersion system formed by solid or liquid small particles dispersed and suspended in an air medium. The aerosol can be absorbed by human body through the respiratory system, providing a user with a novel alternative absorption manner. For example, as an alternative to a conventional product form and absorption manner, a vaporization device generating an aerosol by baking and heating aerosol generation substrates such as herbs or pastes is applied to different fields to deliver an inhalable aerosol to the user.
An electronic vaporization device includes a vaporizer. The vaporizer includes a housing and an electrode holder, where the electrode holder is provided with an electrode, and the electrode is connected to a power supply and a vaporization assembly arranged in the housing. Generally, when being assembled on the housing, the electrode holder is prone displacement relative to the housing, causing a position of the electrode to change. The displacement of the electrode holder also easily causes displacement of other components that are in contact with the electrode holder, reducing product yield.

The vaporizer 10 includes a first housing 11 and an electrode holder 12, and the electrode holder 12 is provided with an electrode. Referring to
With the foregoing arrangement, relative positions of the electrode holder 12 and the first housing 11 in the circumferential direction of the vaporizer 10 do not change easily. Therefore, a position of the electrode arranged on the electrode holder 12 does not change easily, the vaporization assembly 15 is kept connected to a power supply 32 through the electrode at all times, and positions of other components that are in contact with the electrode holder 12 do not change easily, to ensured that various components in the vaporizer 10 closely match with each other, thereby improving the product yield.
Referring to
Specifically, the first body 111 is cylindrical with openings at both ends in an axial direction, and the first mounting ring 112 is annular. Certainly, in other embodiments, specific shapes of the first body 111 and the first mounting ring 112 are not limited.
In an embodiment, the first matching portion 131 is a protrusion protruding from one of the first mounting ring 112 and the base body 121. The second matching portion 132 is a groove recessed in the other of the first mounting ring 112 and the base body 121. The protrusion is embedded in the groove, and the protrusion is embedded in the groove in an anti-rotation manner in the circumferential direction of the vaporizer 10 to restrict rotation of the base body 121 relative to the first mounting ring 112. Specifically, the base body 121 is detachably connected to the first mounting ring 112, and both the groove and the protrusion extend in the axial direction of the vaporizer 10. That is, the first matching portion 131 is detachably matched with the second matching portion 132 in the axial direction of the vaporizer 10. In this way, the first matching portion 131 is matched with the second matching portion 132 to allow the base body 121 and the first mounting ring 112 to be separated from each other. That is, in this embodiment, the first matching portion 131 is matched with the second matching portion 132 to restrict the rotation of the electrode holder 12 relative to the first housing 11. However, the matching of the first matching portion 131 and the second matching portion 132 does not restrict detachment of the electrode holder 12 from the first housing 11 in the axial direction. In addition, through detachable connection between the base body 121 and the first mounting ring 112, it is convenient to separately clean the electrode holder 12 and the first housing 11.
Further, a cross-sectional shape of the protrusion is a zigzag shape arranged in the circumferential direction of the vaporizer 10, and a cross-sectional shape of the groove matches the cross-sectional shape of the protrusion to increase the anti-rotation effect. It is conceivable that, in other embodiments, specific structures of the first matching portion 131 and the second matching portion 132 are not limited, provided that the electrode holder 12 can be restricted from rotating relative to the first housing 11 while can be detached from the first housing 11.
In an embodiment, the first electrode 122 is an annular shape arranged in the circumferential direction of the vaporizer 10, and the first electrode 122 is sleeved outside an end of the base body 121 that extends into the first mounting ring 112. A first opening 1221 (referring to
Optionally, in the circumferential direction of the vaporizer 10, a width of the first opening 1221 is greater than a width of the second opening 1121. In this way, during mounting of the electrode holder 12, communication between the second opening 1121 and the second opening 1121 is ensured without requiring precise alignment in the circumferential direction, so as to ensure smooth airflow. Certainly, in some other embodiments, the width of the first opening 1221 may alternatively be equal to or less than the width of the second opening 1121, which is not limited herein.
Specifically, a plurality of the first openings 1221 spaced apart from each other are arranged in the circumferential direction of the vaporizer 10. The quantity of the second openings 1121 matches the quantity of the first openings 1221 to ensure smooth airflow. Certainly, in some other embodiments, there may also be only one first opening 1221 and one second opening 1121. Referring to
A plurality of the air outlets 1242 spaced apart are arranged in the circumferential direction of the second electrode 124 to ensure smooth airflow.
In an embodiment, the protrusion is arranged on the base body 121. The electrode holder 12 further includes a sealing member 125 (referring to

A liquid storage tank is arranged in the vaporization core 151, and a second air outlet channel 16 (referring to
Specifically, referring to
In an embodiment, the cylindrical body 1511 and the sealing cover 1512 are both sintered by ceramic. When the surface of the sealing cover 1512 facing the electrode holder 12 forms the vaporization surface 154, the outer surface of the cylindrical body 1511 is made into a dense layer or a glaze layer. It should be understood that, both the outer surface at an end of the cylindrical body 1511 that is close to the sealing cover 1512 and the outer surface of the sealing cover 1512 can serve as the vaporization surface 154. In this case, the outer surface at an end of the cylindrical body 1511 that is away from the sealing cover 1512 may be made into a dense layer or a glaze layer. In other embodiments, the cylindrical body 1511 may alternatively be made of a liquid-impermeable material, and the sealing cover 1512 may be made of porous ceramics. The cylindrical body 1511 and the sealing cover 1512 are jointly sintered, which is not limited herein.
Referring to
Further, the first electrode 122 includes at least two contact portions 1222 that are in contact with the fourth electrode 153 (referring to
An end of the cylindrical body 1511 that is away from the sealing cover 1512 is provided with a liquid storage port in communication with the liquid storage tank. The vaporization assembly 15 further includes a vaporization plug 155, the vaporization plug 155 is partially plugged in the liquid storage port, and an exhaust channel 156 (referring to
Further, referring to

Specifically, the second mounting ring 312 is made of a conductive material, and the base body 121 is connected to the power supply 32 through the second mounting ring 312. The power supply assembly 30 further includes a second insulating member 33 and a conductive member 34. The second insulating member 33 is arranged between the conductive member 34 and the second mounting ring 312 to block the electrical connection between the second mounting ring 312 and the conductive member 34. The conductive member 34 is connected to the second electrode 124.
Another embodiment of the present application further provides the vaporizer 10 included in the electronic vaporization device 100. In the vaporizer 10, the electrode holder 12 is matched with the first housing 11 through the first matching portion 131 and the second matching portion 132, and relative positions of the electrode holder 12 and the first housing 11 in the circumferential direction of the vaporizer 132 do not change easily. A position of the electrode arranged on the electrode holder 12 does not change easily, the vaporization assembly 15 is kept connected to a power supply 32 through the electrode at all times, and positions of other components that are in contact with the electrode holder 12 do not change easily, to ensure that various components in the vaporizer 10 closely match with each other, thereby improving the product yield.
The vaporizer 10 and the electronic vaporization device 100 provided in this embodiment have the following beneficial effects:
1. The first matching portion 131 is matched with the second matching portion 132 to limit the mutual rotation between the electrode holder 12 and the first housing 11 in the circumferential direction of the vaporizer 10, and relative positions of the electrode holder 12 and the first housing 11 in the circumferential direction of the vaporizer 10 do not change easily. A position of the electrode arranged on the electrode holder 12 does not change easily, the vaporization assembly 15 is kept connected to a power supply 32 through the electrode at all times, and positions of other components that are in contact with the electrode holder 12 do not change easily, to ensure that various components in the vaporizer 10 closely match with each other, thereby improving the product yield.
2. Both the protrusion as the first matching portion 131 and the groove as the second matching portion 132 extend in the axial direction of the vaporizer 10, so that the electrode holder 12 can be easily detached from the first housing 11 in the axial direction.
3. A width of the first opening 1221 is greater than a width of the second opening 1121. In this way, during mounting of the electrode holder 12, communication between the second opening 1121 and the second opening 1121 can be ensured without requiring precise alignment in the circumferential direction, so as to ensure smooth airflow.
4. The vaporization assembly 15 is detachably assembled in the first housing 11, and during replacement of the vaporizer 10, only the vaporization assembly 15 needs to be replaced, so that the cost is saved and waste of resources is avoided.
5. The third electrode 152 is dot-shaped, and the fourth electrode 153 is arranged surrounding the third electrode 152. The electrical connection effect can be ensured without requiring alignment between the second electrode 124 and the third electrode 152 or between the first electrode 122 and the fourth electrode 153.
