Abstract

An atomizer assembly, an atomizer, and an inhaler are provided. The atomizer assembly includes a core shell and a liquid guiding member. The core shell defines a receiving cavity and also a first groove communicated with the receiving cavity. The liquid guiding member comprises a first liquid guiding portion and a second liquid guiding portion. The first liquid guiding portion is disposed in the receiving cavity. The second liquid guiding portion is integrally connected to the first liquid guiding portion, extends out of the receiving cavity through the first groove, and is used to connect a liquid storage member.

         7 . The atomizer assembly of  claim 6 , wherein the heater comprises one or more heating nets. 
     
     
         8 . The atomizer assembly of  claim 7 , wherein the heater comprises two heating nets, and the two heating nets are stacked along a direction perpendicular to the central axis of the first channel. 
     
     
         9 . The atomizer assembly of  claim 6 , further comprising a base member and a smoke guiding member, wherein the heating member is fixed between the base member and the smoke guiding member. 
     
     
         10 . The atomizer assembly of  claim 9 , wherein the smoke guiding member comprises a smoke guiding tube and a first sealing element; the smoke guiding tube defines a second channel; the smoke guiding tube is hermetically connected to an upper end of the core shell away from the base member through the first sealing element; the first sealing element is configured to seal a gap between the upper end of the core shell and the smoke guiding member. 
     
     
         11 . The atomizer assembly of  claim 9 , wherein the base member comprises a base and a second sealing element; a lower end of the core shell close to the base member is hermetically connected to the base through the second sealing element. 
     
     
         12 . An atomizer, comprising:
 a liquid storage member; and   an atomizer assembly, the liquid storage member surrounding a core shell of the atomizer assembly, the atomizer assembly comprising:
 the core shell defining a receiving cavity and a first groove communicating with the receiving cavity; and 
 a liquid guiding member comprising a first liquid guiding portion and one or more second liquid guiding portion, the first liquid guiding portion disposed in the receiving cavity, the one or more second liquid guiding portion integrally connected to the first liquid guiding portion, the one or more second liquid guiding portion extending out of the receiving cavity through the first groove and configured to connect to the liquid storage member.
