Abstract (en)

An atomizer (100) and an aerosol generating device with the atomizer (100) are provided. The atomizer (100) includes a liquid storage assembly (10) and an atomizing assembly (20). A liquid storage chamber (15) is provided in the liquid storage assembly (10), a smoke outlet (11) is provided in the liquid storage assembly (10), the atomizing assembly (20) is arranged at one end of the liquid storage assembly (10) opposite to the smoke outlet (11), the atomizing assembly (20) includes a liquid absorbing member (231), the liquid absorbing member (231) is arranged between the liquid storage chamber (15) and an atomizing chamber (221) to separate direct communication between the liquid storage chamber (15) and the atomizing chamber (221), and compared to the liquid absorbing member (231), the air outlet end of an air inlet passage (211) is located closer to the smoke outlet (11). The air inlet passage in communication with the atomizing chamber (221) is provided in the atomizing assembly (20), the liquid absorbing member (231) is arranged between the liquid storage chamber (15) and the atomizing chamber (221) to separate direct communication between the liquid storage chamber (15) and the atomizing chamber (221), and meanwhile, the air outlet end of the air inlet passage (211) is located closer to the smoke outlet (11) compared to the liquid absorbing member (231); thus, an aerosol-forming substrate which is not atomized by a heating member (232) in time on the liquid absorbing member (231), the condensate generated when smoke is cooled or the leaked aerosol-forming substrate are not prone to be leaked to the outside of the aerosol generating device.
