Abstract

An vaporizer includes an outer housing that is internally provided with: a liquid storage chamber; a liquid guide element, including a first portion extending in the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the outer housing; a heating element at least partially surrounding the liquid guide element, and configured to heat at least part of the liquid substrate in the liquid guide element to generate an aerosol; and a liquid buffer space, at least partly surrounding the liquid guide element and avoiding the heating element for storing the liquid substrate to adjust the efficiency of transferring the liquid substrate to the heating element. With the above vaporizer, the transferred liquid substrate is buffered through a liquid buffer space at least partially surrounding the second liquid guide element, so that the amount of the liquid substrate supplied to the heating element is balanced, thus reducing E-liquid being blown off.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A vaporizer, configured to vaporize a liquid substrate to generate an aerosol, comprising an outer housing, wherein the outer housing is internally provided:
 a liquid storage chamber, configured to store a liquid substrate;   a liquid guide element, constructed to be in fluid communication with the liquid storage chamber to suck the liquid substrate;   a heating element at least partially surrounding the liquid guide element, and being configured to heat at least part of the liquid substrate in the liquid guide element to generate an aerosol; and   a liquid buffer space, at least partly surrounding the liquid guide element and avoiding the heating element for storing the liquid substrate to adjust the efficiency of transferring the liquid substrate to the heating element.   
     
     
         2 . The vaporizer according to  claim 1 , wherein the liquid guide element comprises a first portion extending in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the outer housing; and the heating element is constructed to at least partially surround the first portion. 
     
     
         3 . The vaporizer according to  claim 2 , wherein the liquid guide element also comprises a second portion extending from the first portion to the liquid storage chamber in the longitudinal direction of the outer housing; and the second portion is constructed to be in fluid communication with the liquid storage chamber to suck the liquid substrate. 
     
     
         4 . The vaporizer according to claim  2 =3, wherein the liquid buffer space comprises a first capillary groove at least partially surrounding the first portion; and
 the first capillary groove is arranged to be positioned on at least one side of the part of the first portion surrounded by the heating element in the extension direction of the first portion.   
     
     
         5 . The vaporizer according to  claim 4 , wherein the first capillary groove is arranged to be perpendicular to the extension direction of the first portion. 
     
     
         6 . The vaporizer according to  claim 4 , further comprising:
 a first support configured to at least partially accommodate and retain the first portion; and   the first capillary groove is arranged on a surface of the first support adjacent to the first portion.   
     
     
         7 . The vaporizer according to  claim 3 , wherein the liquid buffer space comprises a barrier chamber extending in the longitudinal direction of the outer housing, the barrier chamber being constructed to at least partially surround the second portion. 
     
     
         8 . The vaporizer according to  claim 7 , further comprising:
 a first support, configured to at least partially accommodate and retain the second portion; and the first support is provided with a window or hollow part adjacent to the second portion, and the barrier chamber is defined by the window or the hollow part.   
     
     
         9 . The vaporizer according to  claim 7 , wherein a length of the barrier chamber extending in the longitudinal direction of the outer housing is less than ½ the extension length of the second portion. 
     
     
         10 . The vaporizer according to  claim 7 , wherein the second portion has a liquid suction end close to the liquid storage chamber, and the barrier chamber avoids the liquid suction end. 
     
     
         11 . The vaporizer according to  claim 3 , wherein the liquid buffer space further comprises a second capillary groove arranged surrounding the second portion. 
     
     
         12 . The vaporizer according to  claim 11 , wherein the second capillary groove is arranged to be parallel to the extension direction of the second portion. 
     
     
         13 . The vaporizer according to  claim 11 , wherein the second portion has a liquid suction end close to the liquid storage chamber, and the second capillary groove is close to the liquid suction end. 
     
     
         14 . The vaporizer according to  claim 8 , further comprising:
 a second support, accommodated in the first support, and at least partially accommodating and retaining the second portion; and   the liquid buffer space further comprises a third capillary groove arranged on the second support adjacent to the second portion.   
     
     
         15 . An electronic vaporization device, comprising a vaporizer configured to vaporize a liquid substrate to generate an aerosol, and a power supply assembly supplying power to the vaporizer, wherein the vaporizer comprises the vaporizer according to a  claim 1 . 
     
     
         16 . The vaporizer according to  claim 3 , wherein the liquid buffer space comprises a first capillary groove at least partially surrounding the first portion; and
 the first capillary groove is arranged to be positioned on at least one side of the part of the first portion surrounded by the heating element in the extension direction of the first portion.   
     
     
         17 . The vaporizer according to  claim 16 , wherein the first capillary groove is arranged to be perpendicular to the extension direction of the first portion. 
     
     
         18 . The vaporizer according to  claim 16 , further comprising:
 a first support configured to at least partially accommodate and retain the first portion; and   the first capillary groove is arranged on a surface of the first support adjacent to the first portion.
