Abstract

An atomizer and a heating member are provided. The atomizer atomizes a liquid base to generate an aerosol and includes a housing, a support, a base seat, a heating member and a capillary component. The housing is defined with a liquid storage cavity for storing the liquid base. The support is arranged in the housing and includes a liquid channel and a first surface. The liquid channel is in fluid communication with the liquid storage cavity. The first surface faces away from the liquid storage cavity. The liquid channel stops at the first surface. The heating member extends and remains flat. The capillary component covers at least a part of the first surface and shields the liquid channel. The capillary component receives, through the liquid channel, and stores the liquid base from the liquid storage cavity and conveys the liquid base to the vicinity of the heating member.
