Please refer to FIG. 5 to FIG. 8 further, the atomizer further includes a locking assembly 5 installed on the lower cover assembly 2 and the liquid storage assembly 3 . The locking component 5 is used for locking the lower cover component 2 and the liquid storage component 3 together in an unlockable manner. The locking assembly 5 includes a first receiving space 210, a through groove 230, a receiving groove 231 communicating with the through groove 230, and a clamping member that is elastically movable up and down in the first receiving space 210 and the receiving groove 231. 22. The matching hole 243 for the top end of the holding member 22 to pass through and the second receiving space 311 for the top end of the holding member 22 to snap into.

The first accommodating space 210 is defined longitudinally along the peripheral wall of the lower cover 21 and is disposed near the upper opening of the lower cover 21 .

The through groove 230 is defined along the circumferential direction of the screw cap 23 , and the receiving groove 231 is defined on the side of the screw cap 23 close to the lower cover connector 24 . The through groove 230 is arranged in an L shape with the receiving groove 231 .

The matching hole 243 is aligned with the top of the first receiving space 210 and defined on the peripheral edge 242 .

The second receiving space 311 is disposed on the bottom end surface of the atomization chamber base 31 .

The holding member 22 is assembled on the lower cover 21 and located between the lower cover 21 and the screw cover 23 . The clamping member 22 includes a spring 220 arranged in the first receiving space 210, the bottom end of which extends into the spring 220 and the top end passes through the matching hole 243 and snaps into the pin 221 in the second receiving space 311, and can move up and down The protruding portion 222 is disposed in the through groove 230 , and the protruding portion 222 is disposed between the spring 220 and the pin 221 and protrudes outward from the circumferential surface of the pin 221 . The through groove 230 and the receiving groove 231 can accommodate the protruding part 222, press the protruding part 222 downward, the spring 220 compresses, rotate the screw cap 23, and drive the through groove 230 to rotate, so that the protruding part 222 can be snapped into the through groove 230 , rotate the cap 23 in the opposite direction, the spring 220 stretches, and the protruding portion 222 snaps into the receiving groove 231 again. In this embodiment, the second receiving space 311 is an arc-shaped groove with a certain length opened along the circumferential direction, which can increase the groove-entry rate of the top of the pin 221 to prevent the pin 221 from falling off.

Further, the locking assembly 5 also includes an air inlet 211 . The air intake hole 211 is opened relative to the through groove 230 along the circumferential direction of the lower cover 21. When the clamping member 22 is in the unlocked state, the communication area between the through groove 230 and the air intake hole 211 can be adjusted by turning the screw cap 23 to adjust The intake air volume of the nebulizer.

It can be understood that, in other embodiments, when there are two or more air inlet holes 211, the through groove 230 can correspond to one of the air inlet holes 211, so as to adjust the ventilation area of the air inlet hole 211 , if the ventilation area of other air inlet holes 211 is to be adjusted, further air regulating holes 233 corresponding to other air inlet holes 211 need to be provided on the screw cap 23 .

Further, the locking assembly 5 also includes a notch 240 . The notch 240 is defined on the lower peripheral wall of the lower cover connecting member 24 and communicates with the lower open end thereof. After the external air flows in through the air inlet 211 , it can further flow into the atomizing head through the gap 240 .

During use, when the protruding portion 222 is located in the receiving groove 231, the top end of the pin 221 passes through the matching hole 243, and snaps into the second receiving space 311, so that the lower cover connecting piece 24 is opposite to the base 31 of the atomization chamber. Locking means that the lower cover assembly 2 and the liquid storage assembly 3 are relatively locked. If you want to disassemble the atomizer by rotating the screw cap 23, for example, when replacing the atomizing head, you must first press the protruding part 222 downward, compress the spring 220, and then rotate the screw cap 23 to drive the through groove 230 to rotate, so that the protruding The part 222 snaps into the through groove 230, so that the protruding part 222 can leave the second receiving space 311, so that the connection between the lower cover connector 24 and the atomization chamber base 31 is unlocked, that is, the connection between the lower cover assembly 2 and the liquid storage assembly 3 At this time, the lower cover assembly 2 can be disassembled by rotating the screw cap 23, and then the atomizing head can be replaced.

It can be understood that, in other embodiments, on the basis that the locking and unlocking of the clamping member 22 can be realized, the receiving groove 231 and the through groove 230 can form S-shaped, Z-shaped, labyrinth-like and other shapes and structures. The connected chute is not limited to the L-shaped structure given in this embodiment.

Understandably, in other embodiments, when the clamping member 22 itself is an elastic member, the spring 220 may be omitted.

It can be understood that, in other embodiments, the through slot 230 can be omitted. When unlocking is required, the user can press the protruding part 222 with a finger, so that the holding member 22 moves downward and leaves the second receiving space 311, so that the lower cover is connected. The part 24 is unlocked from the base 31 of the atomization chamber, that is, the lower cover assembly 2 and the liquid storage assembly 3 are unlocked. At this time, the lower cover assembly 2 can be disassembled by rotating the screw cap 23, and then the atomizing head can be replaced. When it needs to be locked, the user releases the finger, and the holding member 22 enters the second receiving space 311 again.

Example 2

Please refer to Figures 10-12. The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the structure and arrangement of the locking assembly are different. Specifically, the locking assembly 5 of this embodiment includes a first receiving space 233, a holding member 43 and The second receiving space 333 , the first receiving space 233 communicates with the second receiving space 233 , is used for detachably receiving the holding member 33 . The first receiving space 233 is defined axially on the lower cover assembly 2 , and the first receiving space 233 passes through the lower cover 21 and the lower cover connecting member 24 sequentially. The second receiving space 333 is defined axially on the atomization chamber base 31 .

When it is necessary to unlock the lower cover assembly 2 and the liquid storage assembly 3, it is only necessary to remove the holding member 43 from the second receiving space 333, and the specific operation may be to disassemble the holding member 43 from the atomizer .

Example 3

Please refer to Figures 13-15. The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 2 is that the structure and arrangement of the locking assembly are different. Specifically, the locking assembly 5 of this embodiment includes a first receiving space 433, a holding member 63 and The second receiving space 633 , the first receiving space 433 communicates with the second receiving space 633 , is used for detachably receiving the holding member 63 . The first receiving space 433 is defined radially on the lower cover assembly 2 , specifically, the first receiving space 433 passes through the lower cover connecting member 24 . The second receiving space 633 is defined radially on the atomization chamber base 31 . In order to allow the holding member 63 to enter the second receiving space 633 and the first receiving space 433 , the outer tube 33 also defines a through hole 331 communicating with the second receiving space 633 and the first receiving space 433 . It can be understood that on the basis of ensuring the detachable holding of the lower cover assembly 2 and the liquid storage assembly 3, the first storage space and the second storage space in the above embodiment are not limited to the radial or axial arrangement, Other arrangement methods are also possible, such as the connected first storage space and the second storage space are set up on the atomizer at an angle of 45 degrees.
