FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of atomization devices, and in particular,
to an aerosol generation device and a driving mechanism.
BACKGROUND
[0002] An aerosol generation device, as an emerging technology, has replaced a traditional-burning
cigarette by heating e-liquid or a low temperature cigarette. The aerosol generation
device works at a low heating temperature, and produces far less harmful ingredients
than the traditional-burning cigarette when heating. Therefore, the aerosol generation
device can greatly avoid adverse effects from the cigarette to the human body and
thus provides a healthier way of smoking. Currently, there are two typical aerosol
generation devices in the market. The first one is an electronic atomization device
that generates inhalable aerosol by evaporating the e-liquid. The second one is a
low-temperature heating device that generates inhalable aerosol by heating the tobacco
at a low temperature in a non-burning state. Generally, as for the low-temperature
heating device, a heater such as a heating sheet is inserted into the cigarette to
heat the cigarette. By controlling the heating temperature, the components of the
cigarette are volatilized into the aerosol. When a cigarette is heated to a certain
time, the amount of the aerosol produced by the cigarette reaches a maximum, and it
is necessary to pull the cigarette out of the device to stop smoking or to replace
a new cigarette to continue smoking. How to easily and quickly pull the cigarette
out from the device without damaging the cigarette and without leaving residues on
the heater becomes a crucial problem. Currently, the cigarette is taken out of the
device manually by pulling the cigarette. However, due to that the pulling strengths
and directions of users are different, problems, such as the cigarette is broken apart,
or there are some residues attached to the heater, tend to be caused when pulling
the cigarette by users.

wherein the magnetic assembly comprises an induction coil (321) disposed side-by-side
with the receiving tube (20) along the transverse direction, and a magnetic member
(322) connected to the driving member (31); and
wherein the magnetic member (322) and the induction coil(321) are arranged side-by-side
along the axial direction thereof, so that the magnetic member (322) is able to move
towards the induction coil (321) when an electromagnetic induction is generated when
the induction coil (321) is powered on, thereby driving the driving member (31) to
push out cigarette (2) in the receiving tube (20).
20. The driving mechanism of claim 19, wherein the driving member (31) further comprises
an installation portion (313) connected to the push portion (311) and configured for
mounting the magnetic member (322).
