In the following detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the subject matter presented herein. Obviously, the implementation embodiment in the description is a part of the present disclosure implementation examples, rather than the implementation of all embodiments, examples. According to the described exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by one of ordinary skill in the related art on the premise of no creative work are within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, an atomization device in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a housing 1, an oil storage bin 2, a mouth 3 and an atomization module 4. Specifically, the housing 1 includes an upper cover 11 and a lower cover 12. Both the upper cover 11 and the lower cover 12 are hollow in respective middle thereof and each of the upper cover 11 and the lower cover 12 has an opening formed on a side thereof. The upper cover 11 is connected to the opening of the lower cover 12 to form a chamber therebetween, which is called as a receiving room 14. The oil storage bin 2 is received in the receiving room 14, and there is e-liquid received inside the oil storage bin 2. The mouth 3 is arranged on an outer surface of the upper cover 11. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the mouth 3 is made of silicone and the atomization module 4 is installed on the lower cover 12, so that the atomization module 4 is detachably connected to the lower cover 12. The atomization module 4 includes a base 41 and an atomization core 42. The atomization core 42 is in a long tubular shape, and an atomization part of the atomization core 42 passes through the oil storage bin 2 to come into contact with the e-liquid. A passageway 13 is formed in the receiving room 14. One end of the passageway 13 is connected to the atomization core 42, and the other end of the passageway 13 is connected to the mouth 3. So when the atomization core 42 starts working, the-liquid is atomized by the atomization core 42 and sprayed out from the mouth 3 through the passageway 13. After the atomization device is used for a long time, heating wires of the atomization core 42 become black and carbon deposits is occurred, which will affect a taste of smoke of the atomization device. Therefore, the atomization module 4 can be disassembled and removed through a detachable connection between the atomization module 4 and the lower cover 12 to replace the atomization module 4, which will not affect the taste of smoke of the atomization device after the atomization device is used for a long time, and at the same time, if the atomization module 4 is damaged, the atomization module 4 can be directly replaced, thereby reducing a usage cost of the atomization device.

Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, a rubber ring 5 is installed on a lateral wall 23 of the oil storage bin 2 and located on a side of the oil storage bin 2 close to the lower cover 12. The rubber ring 5 is in a block shape, and there is a through-hole formed in a center of the rubber ring 5 for inserting the atomization core 42. A cross-section the through-hole is circular when the through-hole is viewed from a direction of a side thereof. The rubber ring 5 is tightly connected to a side surface 45 of the atomization module 4, that is, the atomization core 42 passes through the through-hole of the rubber ring 5 and is inserted into the oil storage bin 2. An outer side of the atomization core 42 is tightly connected to an inner wall of the rubber ring 5 to provide a predetermined friction force for the atomization core 42, so that the atomization module 4 can't easily detach from the lower cover 12. In order to further enhance the friction force between the rubber ring 5 and the atomization core 42, an arc-shaped ring is arranged on the inner wall of the rubber ring 5. The arc-shaped ring is integrally connected to the inner wall of the rubber ring 5, and there is a plurality of arc-shaped rings spaced along an axis direction of the through-hole of the rubber ring 5, which can increase the friction force between the atomization core 42 and the rubber ring 5, so that the atomization module 4 can be more stably installed on the housing 1, at the same time, it can also improve a sealing effect that the atomization core 42 is inserted into the oil storage bin 2.

Referring to FIG. 2 to FIG. 6, during replacing the atomization module 4, in order to avoid the e-liquid from leaking from the oil storage bin 2, an oil storage cotton 21 is arranged in the oil storage bin 2. The oil storage cotton 21 is cylindrical, and a channel with a cylindrical cross-section shape is formed along an axis of the oil storage cotton 21. The channel is called as the passageway 13. One end of the passageway 13 is opened that the atomization core 42 of the atomization module 4 is to be inserted, and the other end of the passageway 13 is set corresponding to the channel of the mouth 3. Sizes of pores of the oil storage cotton 21 are smaller than that of molecules of the e-liquid, which can avoid the e-liquid from leaking out of the oil storage bin 2 during replacing the atomization module 4. A guiding cotton 43 is arranged on a part where the atomization core 42 is in contact with the oil storage cotton 21, and the e-liquid can flow from the oil storage cotton 21 to the guiding cotton 43 for being atomized.

Referring to FIG. 2 to FIG. 6, in order to enable the atomization device to be reused, an opening is set at an insertion end of the oil storage bin 2 away from the atomization core 42, and an opening is also arranged on the side of the upper cover 11 away from the lower cover 12. The mouth 3 is detachably connected to the upper cover 11, and the opening of the oil storage bin 2 is connected to the mouth 3. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the mouth 3 is tightly sealed and connected to the inner wall of the opening of the oil storage bin 2 through an elasticity of the mouth 3. The detachable connection of the mouth 3 can be obtained by pulling and inserting the mouth 3. The mouth 3 can also be sealed and connected to the inner wall of the opening of the oil storage bin 2. Therefore, when the e-liquid within the oil storage bin 2 is used up, the mouth 3 can be removed to expose the opening of the oil storage bin 2. The e-liquid is filled into the oil storage bin 2 through an external liquid storage component. After the e-liquid is fully filled, the mouth 3 is tightly installed on the upper cover 11, so that the atomization device can be reused for many times.

In addition, in order to quickly suck out smoke sprayed from the atomization core 42, a guiding tube 22 is installed on the a side of the oil storage cotton 21 close to the opening of the oil storage bin 2. The guiding tube 22 is inserted into the channel of the mouth 3, so that the smoke can be directly discharged from the mouth 3 through the guiding tube 22.

In order to conveniently install the atomization module 4, a front end 46 of the atomization module 4 is arranged to be contracted inwardly, that is, the front end 46 of the atomization module 4 contracts towards an axis 47 of the atomization module 4. In this way, en installing the atomization module 4, the atomization module 4 can be more accurately inserted into the passageway 13. At the same time, a diameter of a part where the atomization module 4 is inserted into the passageway 13 is greater than or equal to a diameter of the passageway 13. Therefore, when the atomization module 4 is inserted into the passageway 13, the oil storage cotton 21 within the oil storage bin 2 can be better in contact with the guiding cotton 43 of the atomization module 4, so that the e-liquid can conveniently enter the atomization module 4.

Referring to FIG. 2 to FIG. 6, the atomization device further includes a printed circuit board 7, a display screen 8 and a reset button 9. Specifically, when the atomization module 4 is installed on the lower cover 12, the printed circuit board 7 is electrically connected to the atomization module 4 and configured to estimate a remaining amount of the e-liquid within the oil storage bin 2 based on the suction time of the atomization device. The display screen 8 is configured to display an estimated value of the remaining amount of the e-liquid and display the estimated value through a screen window thereof. At the same time, the printed circuit board 7 can also display the power of the atomization device. The reset button 9 is set on the printed circuit board 7 and electrically connected to the printed circuit board 7. The reset button 9 passes through the receiving room 14 to extend out of the housing 1 for conveniently being pressed. After the e-liquid within the oil storage bin 2 is used up, it is necessary to refill the e-liquid into the oil storage bin 2. At this time, the reset button 9 is pressed to reset the value displayed on the display screen 8, so that the estimated value of the e-liquid reaches an initial maximum value, which can display the remaining amount of the e-liquid, to avoid the phenomenon of dry-burning of the heating wires of the atomization module 4 from being occurred as much as possible.

Referring to FIG. 2 to FIG. 6, a seat 6 is arranged on the lateral wall 23 of the oil storage bin 2 and located on the same side as the rubber ring 5. The seat 6 provides an installation foundation for the rubber ring 5, and is provided for installing a holder 61. The atomization core 42 passes through the seat 6 and the rubber ring 5 in sequence and then is inserted into the oil storage bin 2. After the atomization module 4 is installed, the holder 61 is connected to the atomization core 42. An acid proof net is installed on the holder 61 and configured to avoid damage to the holder 61 caused by external water vapors flowing back from the mouth 3 to the holder 61 have an anti-backblowing function, which can prevent external air from flowing from the mouth 3 to the holder 61, causing the holder 61 to start atomizing the e-liquid automatically.

Referring to FIG. 2 to FIG. 6, in order to make the atomization device be suitable for more audiences, the atomization device of the present disclosure includes a plurality of inlets 44 arranged on the atomization core 42 and surrounding the side surface 45 of the atomization module 4. The plurality of inlets 44 is distributed in a circumferential interval, and has various aperture sizes thereof, a gap 63 arranged at a part where the atomization core 42 passes through the seat 6, and connected to the external atmosphere. When selecting the smoke output of the atomization device, both the inlet 44 and the gap 63 with the same size of the inlet 44 are corresponding to each other. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, because two bases 41 of the atomization module 4 are protruded, and an angle of 180 degrees is formed between the two bases 41, and the seat includes 6 two corresponding recesses 62 for respectively inserting the bases 41, when the two bases 41 are respectively inserted into the two recesses 62, the sidewall 621 of the recess 62 is in contact with the base 41, and the base 41 is electrically connected to a power supply 10 of the atomization device, there are two inlets 44 of the atomization device of the present disclosure, and an angle between the two inlets 44 is also set at 180 degrees. In this way, according to the user's needs, the atomization module 4 is first removed and rotates around the angle of 180 degrees to be installed, so as to change the smoke output of the atomization device, which is suitable for a wider usage range thereof.

An implementation principle of the atomization device of the present disclosure is as follows: after the atomization device is used for a long time, carbon deposits is occurred on the heating wires of the atomization core 42 to affect a taste of smoke of the atomization device. Therefore, the atomization module 4 can be pulled out of the housing 1 by tightly connecting the atomization core 42 and the rubber ring 5 of the atomization module 4, and then a new atomization module 4 can be installed to completely replace the old atomization module 4, which will not affect the smoke taste of the atomization device after the atomization device is used for a long time, and at the same time, if the atomization module 4 is damaged, the atomization module 4 can be directly replaced, thereby reducing a usage cost of the atomization device.
