CROSS-REFERENCE TO PRIOR APPLICATION 
     Priority is claimed to Chinese Patent Application No. 202111300731.4, filed on Nov. 4, 2021, and 202111605164.3, filed on Dec. 25, 2021, the entire disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference herein. 
     FIELD 
     The present invention relates to the field of electronic vaporization technologies, and in particular, to a liquid storage assembly, an electronic vaporization apparatus, and a remaining volume detection method. 
     BACKGROUND 
     An electronic vaporization apparatus mainly includes a power supply module and a vaporizer. The vaporizer includes a housing component and a vaporization module. The housing component may be sleeved outside the vaporization module and configured to form a liquid storage cavity. In order to prevent the generation of harmful substances and burnt smell, it is necessary to prevent the electronic vaporization apparatus from dry burning. However, an existing electronic vaporization apparatus cannot accurately acquire a remaining volume of to-be-vaporized liquid in a liquid storage cavity, which may easily cause dry burning of the electronic vaporization apparatus because the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity has been exhausted but the electronic vaporization apparatus still continues to be used. 
     In existing methods for detecting a remaining volume of to-be-vaporized liquid, a method for detecting a remaining volume through a sensor is complex in design, and a method for detecting a remaining volume through a heating wire is too high in cost for a required material of the heating wire. In addition, the existing methods for detecting the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid are not accurate enough, and a detection result is likely to cause an erroneous determination. 
     SUMMARY 
     In an embodiment, the present invention provides a liquid storage assembly, comprising: a liquid storage cavity configured to store to-be-vaporized liquid; a reference element at least partially located in the liquid storage cavity and comprising a reference electrode; at least one detection element at least partially located in the liquid storage cavity, the at least one detection element being spaced apart from the reference element and comprising a detection electrode; and a detection circuit electrically connected to the reference element and the at least one detection element, the detection circuit being configured to detect capacitance between the reference element and the at least one detection element or resistance of the to-be-vaporized liquid, and to determine a remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid according to the detected capacitance or resistance.

     In an implementation for detecting the resistance, the detection element and the reference element extend into the liquid storage cavity from one side of the liquid storage cavity, and the first conductive port and the second conductive port correspond to different liquid level heights, so that two detection terminals in the liquid storage cavity are used as two electrodes, that is, a detection electrode and a reference electrode respectively. When the remaining volumes of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity are different, resistance values of the to-be-vaporized liquid detected by the detection circuit through the two electrically-connected detection terminals are different, and therefore a status of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid can be determined. Since the liquid storage cavity is provided with two conductive ports, that is, the liquid storage cavity is provided with the detection electrode and the reference electrode, when the detection circuit detects the to-be-vaporized liquid, the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid may be determined through relative values of the detection electrode and the reference electrode. Detection of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is simple in design and low in cost, and the remaining volume is determined in a manner of comparing the two detection terminals, so that a situation in which the detection precision is influenced by the detection circuit due to a change in the resistance value of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity is avoided, and the detection result is not likely to cause an erroneous determination.

     The present invention further relates to a remaining volume detection method for to-be-vaporized liquid, applicable to an electronic vaporization apparatus including a liquid storage cavity. The liquid storage cavity is configured to store to-be-vaporized liquid. The remaining volume detection method includes: detecting capacitance between a reference element and at least one detection element or resistance of the to-be-vaporized liquid through the reference electrode and the detection electrode; and determining a remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid according to the detected capacitance or resistance; where, the reference element is at least partially located in the liquid storage cavity and includes a reference electrode; and the at least one detection element is at least partially located in the liquid storage cavity and is spaced apart from the reference element, and includes a detection electrode. 
     The following describes the implementations of the present invention in detail by using capacitance-based detection and resistance-based detection as examples. 
     First, an electronic vaporization apparatus according to a first example of the present invention is described. In the electronic vaporization apparatus, a remaining volume of to-be-vaporized liquid stored in a liquid storage cavity is detected based on detection for capacitance.  FIG.  1    shows the electronic vaporization apparatus according to the first example of the present invention. The electronic vaporization apparatus includes a suction nozzle, a liquid storage cavity  100 , a reference element  200 , a first detection element  300 , and a second detection element  400 . With reference to  FIG.  2   , in an embodiment, the electronic vaporization apparatus further includes a capacitance acquisition module  500  and a processing module  600 . An input end of the capacitance acquisition module  500  is connected to the reference element  200 , the first detection element  300 , and the second detection element  400 , and an output end of the capacitance acquisition module  500  is connected to the processing module  600 . 
     The liquid storage cavity  100  is configured to store to-be-vaporized liquid. The to-be-vaporized liquid is also referred to as a vaporization substrate. After the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  is heated and vaporized, an aerosol that can be inhaled by an inhaler can be generated. The capacitance acquisition module  500  and the processing module  600  form a detection circuit. The liquid storage cavity  100 , the reference element  200 , the first detection element  300 , the second detection element  400 , and the detection circuit form a liquid storage assembly. The reference element  200  includes a reference electrode, the first detection element  300  includes a first electrode, and the second detection element  400  includes a second electrode. 
     The reference element  200  may be a heating element. The heating element is electrically connected to the power supply module, and may not only heat and vaporize the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100 , but also serve as the reference element  200  of the electronic vaporization apparatus. Therefore, costs of the electronic vaporization apparatus can be reduced. It may be understood that the reference element  200  may also be another metal component such as a vaporization base or a support base of a vaporizer. In addition, the reference element  200  may also be a specially arranged electrode plate for providing a reference electrode. The above is merely a specific example, which may be flexibly set according to requirements in practical applications and is not limited herein. 
     The first detection element  300  and the reference element  200  form a first capacitor, and the second detection element  400  and the reference element form a second capacitor. A distance between a bottom of the first detection element  300  and a bottom of the liquid storage cavity  100  is greater than a distance between a bottom of the second detection element  400  and the bottom of the liquid storage cavity  100 . That is, heights of the first detection element  300  and the second detection element  400  in an axial direction of the liquid storage cavity  100  are different. In a specific example, the bottom of the first detection element  300  is away from the suction nozzle of the vaporizer relative to a top of the first detection element  300 , the bottom of the liquid storage cavity  100  is away from the suction nozzle of the vaporizer relative to a top of the liquid storage cavity  100 , and the bottom of the second detection element  400  is away from the suction nozzle of the vaporizer relative to a top of the second detection element  400 . The above is merely a specific example, which may be flexibly set according to requirements in practical applications and is not limited herein. 
     In an embodiment, the first detection element  300  and the second detection element  400  may be, but are not limited to be, metal sheets or metal meshes coated with insulation materials. Therefore, the overall cost of the electronic vaporization apparatus is reduced. In a specific example, the first detection element  300  or the second detection element  400  may also be another metal component such as the vaporization base or the support base. of the vaporizer. It may be understood that the first detection element  300 , the second detection element  400 , and the reference element  200  are three electrodes independent from each other. To ensure detection accuracy of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid, the first detection element  300 , the second detection element  400 , and the reference element  200  may be different metal components of the vaporizer. The above is merely a specific example, which may be flexibly set according to requirements in practical applications and is not limited herein. 
     In addition, sizes and shapes of the first detection element  300  and the second detection element  400  are not limited, and it is only necessary that the distance between the bottom of the first detection element  300  and the bottom of the liquid storage cavity  100  is less than the distance between the bottom of the second detection element  400  and the bottom of the liquid storage cavity  100 . In a specific example, the first detection element  300  may be, but is not limited to be, a first detection element plate. Therefore, the first capacitor formed by the first detection element plate and the reference element  200  is a first capacitor plate. The second detection element  400  may be, but is not limited to be, a second detection element plate. Therefore, the second capacitor formed by the second detection element  400  and the reference element  200  is a second capacitor plate. The above is merely a specific example, which may be flexibly set according to requirements in practical applications and is not limited herein. 
     In an embodiment, the first detection element  300  and the second detection element  400  are respectively adhered to inner side walls of the liquid storage cavity, and therefore, it is convenient for the first capacitor and the second capacitor to measure a change of a liquid level of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity based on a capacitive sensing principle, thereby improving convenience of detecting the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity of the electronic vaporization apparatus. 
     The capacitance acquisition module  500  is configured to acquire capacitance of the first capacitor and output a first electrical signal corresponding to the capacitance of the first capacitor. The capacitance acquisition module  500  is further configured to acquire capacitance of the second capacitor and output a second electrical signal corresponding to the capacitance of the second capacitor. 
     In an embodiment, as shown in  FIG.  3   , the capacitance acquisition module  500  includes a first capacitor acquisition unit  510  and a second capacitor acquisition unit  520 . The first capacitor acquisition unit  510  is connected to the first detection element  300 , the reference element  200 , and the processing module  600 . The second capacitor acquisition unit  520  is connected to the second detection element  400 , the reference element  200 , and the processing module  600 . 
     The first capacitor acquisition unit  510  is configured to acquire a capacitance value of the first capacitor and output the first electrical signal to the processing module  600 . The second capacitor acquisition unit  520  is configured to acquire a capacitance value of the second capacitor and output the second electrical signal to the processing module  600 . 
     In this embodiment, the first capacitor acquisition unit  510  and the second capacitor acquisition unit  520  respectively acquire the capacitance of the first capacitor and the capacitance of the second capacitor, and respectively output the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal to the processing module  600 , whereby the processing module  600  determines the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity according to the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal, thereby improving efficiency of detecting the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity of the electronic vaporization apparatus. It may be understood that the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid indicates a content state of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity. 
     The processing module  600  is configured to receive the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal outputted by the capacitance acquisition module  500  and determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity according to the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal. In an embodiment, the processing module  600  may be, but is not limited to be, a single-chip microcomputer. 
     In a specific example, based on the capacitive sensing principle, the reference element  200  is used as negative electrodes of the first capacitor and the second capacitor, the first detection element  300  is used as a positive electrode of the first capacitor, and the second detection element  400  is used as a positive electrode of the second capacitor. Therefore, the first detection element  300  and the reference element  200  form the first capacitor, and the second detection element  400  and the reference element  200  form the second capacitor. 
     The capacitance is calculated based on the following expression: 
     
       
         
           
             
               C 
               = 
               
                 
                   ε 
                   · 
                   S 
                 
                 d 
               
             
             , 
           
         
       
     
     where C is capacitance; ε is a electric constant of a medium between plates; S is a plate area; and d is a distance between the plates. 
     Therefore, when content of the to-be-vaporized liquid stored in the liquid storage cavity  100  is increased, the liquid level of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  will rise. In this case, an area of the first capacitor or the second capacitor in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid will be correspondingly increased, and the capacitance of the first capacitor or the second capacitor will also be correspondingly increased. That is, the capacitance of the first capacitor or the capacitance of the second capacitor acquired by the capacitance acquisition module  500  will be correspondingly increased. Thus, a voltage of the first electrical signal corresponding to the capacitance of the first capacitor or a voltage of the second electrical signal corresponding to the capacitance of a capacitor plate outputted by the capacitance acquisition module  500  is correspondingly increased. In other words, the capacitance of the first capacitor is proportional to the voltage of the first electrical signal, and the capacitance of the second capacitor is proportional to the voltage of the second electrical signal. Thus, the processing module  600  may accurately determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  through the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal. The above is merely a specific example, which may be flexibly set according to requirements in practical applications and is not limited herein. 
     Based on this, the first electrical signal outputted by the capacitance acquisition module  500  and corresponding to the capacitance of the first capacitor acquired by the capacitance acquisition module and the electrical signal corresponding to the capacitance of the second capacitor acquired by the capacitance acquisition module are acquired by the processing module  600 . Moreover, the processing module  600  accurately determines the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity according to the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal, thereby avoiding a dry burning phenomenon of the electronic vaporization apparatus due to a continuing use of the electronic vaporization apparatus when the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  has been exhausted, and improving the detection accuracy of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid stored in the liquid storage cavity of the electronic vaporization apparatus. 
     In a specific example, the electronic vaporization apparatus further includes a third detection element including a third electrode. The capacitance acquisition module  500  is connected to the third detection element. The third detection element and the reference element form a third capacitor. A distance between a bottom of the third detection element and the bottom of the liquid storage cavity  100  is less than the distance between the bottom of the second detection element and the bottom of the liquid storage cavity. The capacitance acquisition module  500  is further configured to acquire capacitance of the third capacitor, and output a third electrical signal corresponding to the capacitance of the third capacitor to the processing module  600 . The processing module  600  may determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity according to the first electrical signal, the second electrical signal and the third electrical signal, thereby further improving the detection accuracy of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid stored in the liquid storage cavity of the electronic vaporization apparatus. The above is merely a specific example. A number of detection elements in the electronic vaporization apparatus may be flexibly limited according to the requirements for the detection accuracy of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity of the electronic vaporization apparatus, and is not limited herein. 
     In an embodiment, the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid may include a first remaining volume, a second remaining volume, and a third remaining volume. 
     The processing module  600  is further configured to determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid to be the first remaining volume when the voltage of the first electrical signal is equal to a first voltage threshold and the voltage of the second electrical signal is equal to a second voltage threshold. 
     The first voltage threshold is the corresponding voltage of the first electrical signal when the first detection element  300  is not in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100 . The second voltage threshold is the corresponding voltage of the second electrical signal when the second detection element  400  is not in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100 . When the voltage of the first electrical signal is equal to the first voltage threshold, it indicates that the first detection element  300  is not in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  at this moment. Meanwhile, when the voltage of the second electrical signal is equal to the second voltage threshold, it indicates that the second detection element  400  is not in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100 . Therefore, when the voltage of the first electrical signal of the processing module  600  is equal to the first voltage threshold and the voltage of the second electrical signal is equal to the second voltage threshold, that is, when both the first detection element  300  and the second detection element  400  are not in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100 , it indicates that the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  is very less or even there is no to-be-vaporized liquid, that is, dry burning of the heating element in the vaporizer is caused. Therefore, the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is determined to be the first remaining volume. It may be understood that the processing module  600  of the electronic vaporization apparatus may control the electronic vaporization apparatus to stop operating when detecting that the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is the first remaining volume, thereby avoiding the risk of dry burning of the vaporizer. The electronic vaporization apparatus may further include a reminder module that may be configured to remind a user to stop inhaling, replace the vaporizer, or add to-be-vaporized liquid to the liquid storage cavity  100  in time, thereby further reducing the risk of dry burning of the electronic vaporization apparatus. 
     The processing module  600  is further configured to determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid to be the second remaining volume when the voltage of the first electrical signal is greater than the first voltage threshold and the voltage of the second electrical signal is equal to the second voltage threshold. 
     When the voltage of the first electrical signal is greater than the first voltage threshold, it indicates that the first detection element  300  is not in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  at this moment. Meanwhile, when the voltage of the second electrical signal is equal to the second voltage threshold, it indicates that the second detection element  400  is not in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100 . Therefore, when the voltage of the first electrical signal of the processing module  600  is greater than the first voltage threshold and the voltage of the second electrical signal is equal to the second voltage threshold, that is, when the first detection element  300  is in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  but the second detection element  400  is not in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100 , it indicates that the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  is not in a very small amount or even in a case that there is no to-be-vaporized liquid, but the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  is not filled up. Therefore, the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is determined to be the second remaining volume. Therefore, when the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is the second remaining volume, the reminder module of the electronic vaporization apparatus may be configured to remind a user of the electronic vaporization apparatus that the electronic vaporization apparatus can be continuously safely used. 
     the processing module  600  is further configured to determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid to be the third remaining volume when the voltage of the first electrical signal is greater than the first voltage threshold and the voltage of the second electrical signal is greater than the second voltage threshold. 
     When the voltage of the first electrical signal is greater than the first voltage threshold, it indicates that the first detection element  300  is not in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  at this moment. Meanwhile, when the voltage of the second electrical signal is greater than the second voltage threshold, it indicates that the second detection element  400  is in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100 . Therefore, when the voltage of the first electrical signal of the processing module  600  is greater than the first voltage threshold and the voltage of the second electrical signal is greater than the second voltage threshold, that is, when both the first detection element  300  and the second detection element  400  are in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100 , it indicates that the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  is in a relatively full condition. Therefore, the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is determined to be the third remaining volume. In some embodiments, the vaporizer of the electronic vaporization apparatus may be injected with the to-be-vaporized liquid, and if the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is determined to be the third remaining volume, the reminder module of the electronic vaporization apparatus may also be configured to remind that the injection of the to-be-vaporized liquid is stopped, to prevent any liquid from leaking out 
     In this embodiment, by comparing the voltage of the first electrical signal with the first voltage threshold and comparing the voltage of the second electrical signal with the second voltage threshold, it can be accurately determined that whether the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  is the first remaining volume, the second remaining volume, or the third remaining volume, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity of the electronic vaporization apparatus. 
     In an embodiment, as shown in  FIG.  4   , the electronic vaporization apparatus further includes a switch module  700 . The processing module  600  is connected to the switch module  700 . 
     The processing module  600  is further configured to output a first trigger signal to the switch module  700 . 
     The switch module  700  is connected to the capacitance acquisition module  500  and a power supply module  800 , and is configured to control a power supply source to supply power to the capacitance acquisition module according to the first trigger signal. In an embodiment, the switch module  700  is a P-Channel enhancement-type MOSFET. A drain electrode of the P-Channel enhancement-type MOSFET is connected to the capacitance acquisition module, a grid electrode of the P-Channel enhancement-type MOSFET is connected to the processing module, and a source electrode of the P-Channel enhancement-type MOSFET is connected to the power supply source. 
     In a specific example, when it is required to detect the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the electronic vaporization apparatus, the processing module  600  may output a first trigger signal greater than a turn-on voltage of the switch module  700  to the switch module  700 . Thus, the switch module may turn on the power supply source and the capacitance acquisition module  500  according to the first trigger signal, whereby the power supply source supplies power to the capacitance acquisition module. Conversely, when the detection of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity of the electronic vaporization apparatus is stopped, the processing module  600  may output a first trigger signal less than the turn-on voltage of the switch module  700  to the switch module  700 . Thus, the switch module may turn off the power supply source and the capacitance acquisition module  500  according to the first trigger signal, whereby the power supply source stops supplying power to the capacitance acquisition module. The above is merely a specific example, which may be flexibly set according to requirements in practical applications and is not limited herein. 
     In this embodiment, by arranging the switch module  700  in the electronic vaporization apparatus and outputting the first trigger signal to the switch module  700  through the processing module  600 , the switch module  700  controls the power supply source to supply power to the capacitance acquisition module according to the first trigger signal. Therefore, the convenience and safety of the electronic vaporization apparatus are improved. 
       FIG.  5    shows a process of a remaining volume detection method for to-be-vaporized liquid, which is applicable to the foregoing electronic vaporization apparatus. The method includes steps S 11  to S 12 . 
     Step S 11 . Acquire a first electrical signal and a second electrical signal outputted by a capacitance acquisition module  500 . 
     The first electrical signal corresponds to capacitance of a first capacitor acquired by the capacitance acquisition module  500 . The second electrical signal corresponds to capacitance of a second capacitor acquired by the capacitance acquisition module  500 . The first capacitor includes a first detection element  300  and a reference element  200 . The liquid storage cavity  100  is configured to store to-be-vaporized liquid. The second capacitor includes a second detection element  400  and the reference element  200 . A distance between a bottom of the first detection element  300  and a bottom of the liquid storage cavity  100  is less than a distance between a bottom of the second detection element  400  and the bottom of the liquid storage cavity  100 . A processing module  600  in the electronic vaporization apparatus may acquire the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal outputted by the capacitance acquisition module  500 . 
     Step S 12 . Determine a remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  according to the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal. 
     The processing module  600  in the electronic vaporization apparatus may accurately determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  according to the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal. 
     In this embodiment, the first electrical signal outputted by the capacitance acquisition module  500  and corresponding to the capacitance of the first capacitor acquired by the capacitance acquisition module and the electrical signal corresponding to the capacitance of the second capacitor acquired by the capacitance acquisition module are acquired by the processing module  600 . Moreover, the processing module  600  accurately determines the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity according to the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal, thereby avoiding the dry burning phenomenon of the electronic vaporization apparatus because the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  has been exhausted but the electronic vaporization apparatus still continues to be used, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid stored in the liquid storage cavity of the electronic vaporization apparatus. 
     In an embodiment, the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid includes a first remaining volume, a second remaining volume, and a third remaining volume. As shown in  FIG.  6   , the step of determining the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity according to the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal includes steps S 121  and S 123 . 
     Step S 121 . Determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid to be the first remaining volume when a voltage of the first electrical signal is equal to a first voltage threshold and a voltage of the second electrical signal is equal to a second voltage threshold. 
     The first voltage threshold is the corresponding voltage of the first electrical signal when the first detection element is not in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100 . The second voltage threshold is the corresponding voltage of the second electrical signal when the second detection element is not in contact with the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100 . 
     Step S 122 . Determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid to be the second remaining volume when the voltage of the first electrical signal is greater than the first voltage threshold and the voltage of the second electrical signal is equal to the second voltage threshold. 
     Step S 123 . Determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid to be the third remaining volume when the voltage of the first electrical signal is greater than the first voltage threshold and the voltage of the second electrical signal is greater than the second voltage threshold. 
     In this embodiment, by comparing the voltage of the first electrical signal with the first voltage threshold and comparing the voltage of the second electrical signal with the second voltage threshold, it can be accurately determined that whether the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  100  is the first remaining volume, the second remaining volume, or the third remaining volume, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity of the electronic vaporization apparatus. 
     It should be understood that, although each step of the flowcharts in  FIG.  5    and  FIG.  6    is displayed sequentially according to arrows, the steps are not necessarily performed according to an order indicated by arrows. Unless otherwise explicitly specified in this specification, execution of the steps is not strictly limited, and the steps may be performed in other sequences. In addition, at least some steps in  FIG.  5    and  FIG.  6    may include a plurality of steps or a plurality of stages. The steps or the stages are not necessarily performed at the same moment, and instead may be performed at different moments. The steps or the stages are not necessarily performed sequentially, and instead may be performed in turn or alternately with another step or at least some of steps or stages of the another step.

     An electronic vaporization apparatus according to a second example of the present invention is described below. In the electronic vaporization apparatus, a remaining volume of to-be-vaporized liquid stored in a liquid storage cavity is detected based on detection for resistance.  FIG.  10    is a structure of a first embodiment of a liquid storage assembly according to the second example of the present invention. The liquid storage assembly  1000  includes a liquid storage cavity  1100 , a detection element  1300 , a reference element  1200 , and a vaporization core  1400 . 
     The liquid storage cavity  1100  is configured to store to-be-vaporized liquid. The to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  can be guided into the vaporization core  1400  and heated and vaporized in the vaporization core  1400  to form an aerosol to be used by a user. In this embodiment, the liquid storage cavity  1100  surrounds the vaporization core  1400 . In other embodiments, the liquid storage cavity  1100  may be arranged on one side of the vaporization core  1400 . 
     The detection element  1300  includes a first conductive port  1310  used as a detection electrode. The first conductive port  1310  is provided in the liquid storage cavity  1100 . A position where the first conductive port  1310  is located corresponds to a first liquid level height. That is, when a liquid level height of liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is greater than or equal to the first liquid level height, the detection element  1300  may be in conductive connection to the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  through the first conductive port  1310 . When the liquid level height of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is less than the first liquid level height, the detection element  1300  is insulated from the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100 . 
     The reference element  1200  includes a second conductive port  1210  used as a reference electrode, where the second conductive port  1210  is arranged in the liquid storage cavity  1100 . A position where the second conductive port  1210  is located corresponds to a second liquid level height. That is, when the liquid level height of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is greater than or equal to the second liquid level height, the reference element  1200  may be in conductive connection to the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  through the second conductive port  1210 . When the liquid level height of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is less than the second liquid level height, the reference element  1200  is insulated from the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100 . 
     The detection element  1300  and reference element  1200  may be in a strip shape or a bar shape, or may be in other shapes, which is not limited in this application. 
     The detection element  1300  and the reference element  1200  may also be referred to as a first detection terminal and a second detection terminal. If one of the first detection terminal and the second detection terminal is the reference element, the other one is the detection element. The detection terminals may be in such a way that parts with conductive ports extend into the liquid storage cavity  1100 , and other parts are arranged outside the liquid storage cavity  1100 . Or the detection terminals are completely arranged in the liquid storage cavity  1100 , as long as the conductive ports of the detection terminals are located at corresponding liquid level height positions of the liquid storage cavity  1100 . 
     The detection element  1300  and the reference element  1200  extend into the liquid storage cavity  1100  from one side in a first direction. The first direction may be a length direction or a width direction of the liquid storage cavity  1100 . Certainly, the first direction may also be another direction in which extending into the liquid storage cavity  1100  may be achieved. In this embodiment, the detection element  1300  and the reference element  1200  extend into the liquid storage cavity  1100  from one side in the first direction and extend towards the other side of the liquid storage cavity  1100  in the first direction. For example, the detection terminals may extend into the liquid storage cavity  1100  from one side in the longitudinal direction and extend towards the other side of the liquid storage cavity  1100  in the longitudinal direction. The detection terminals may also extend into the liquid storage cavity  1100  from one side in the transverse direction and extend towards the other side of the liquid storage cavity  1100  in the transverse direction. In another embodiment, the detection element  1300  and the reference element  1200  may both perform extending-in from one side in a length direction or a width direction. Or, one of the detection element  1300  and the reference element  1200  performs extending-in from one side in the length direction, and the other one of the detection element and the reference element performs extending-in from one side in the width direction. 
     The conductive ports may be located at end portions of the detection terminals and may also be located at positions of middle sections of the detection terminals. In this embodiment, the first conductive port  1310  is located at a tail end of the detection element  1300  in an extending direction. The second conductive port  1210  is located at a tail end of the reference element  1200  in an extending direction. In another embodiment, the first conductive port  1310  may be located at a middle section of the detection element  1300  in an extending direction. The second conductive port  1210  may be located at a middle section of reference element  1200  in an extending direction. Positions in the detection terminals where the conductive ports are located not limited to several positions mentioned by the present application and may be other positions, as long as the conductive ports of the detection terminals are located in corresponding liquid level height positions of the liquid storage cavity  1100 . 
     Only the conductive ports of the detection terminals can be in conductive connection to the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100 . Outer surfaces of parts of the detection terminals except the conductive ports are insulated from the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100 . In this embodiment, each detection terminal may include a metal conductor. Meanwhile, an outer surface of one part of each metal conductor is provided with an insulating layer. An outer surface of the other part of each metal conductor is exposed to serve as the corresponding conductive port. 
     In an embodiment, a side surface of the detection element  1300  located in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is insulated. Meanwhile, a cross section (an end surface) of a port in one end of the detection element  1300  located in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is conductive so as to form the first conductive port  1310 . A side surface of the reference element  1200  located in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is insulated. Meanwhile, a cross section (an end surface) of a port in one end of the reference element  1200  located in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is conductive so as to form the second conductive port  1210 . 
     A technology for setting the side surfaces of the detection terminals to be insulated and the end surfaces to be conductive to serve as the conductive ports is simple, and it can be accurately achieved that when a liquid level of a solution in the liquid storage cavity  1100  reaches heights of the cross sections of the detection terminals in the liquid storage cavity  1100 , the solution in the liquid storage cavity  1100  communicates with the detection terminals. 
     The first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210  are configured to be electrically connected to a detection circuit  1500 . As shown in  FIG.  11   ,  FIG.  11    is a schematic structural diagram of a second embodiment of a liquid storage assembly  1000  according to the second example of the present invention. The liquid storage assembly  1000  may include a detection circuit  1500 . The detection circuit  1500  of the liquid storage assembly  1000  is electrically connected to a first conductive port  1310  and a second conductive port  1210 . Certainly, the liquid storage assembly  1000  may not include the detection circuit  1500 . The first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210  may be electrically connected to an external detection circuit  1500 . 
     The detection circuit  1500  may be directly electrically connected to the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210  and may also be electrically connected to partial detection terminals arranged outside the liquid storage cavity  1100  so as to be electrically connected to the conductive ports in the liquid storage cavity  1100  through the metal conductors in the detection terminals. For example, a port in one end of each of the detection element  1300  and the reference element  1200  located outside the liquid storage cavity  1100  may be conductive. The detection circuit  1500  is connected to the port in one end of each of the two detection terminals located outside the liquid storage cavity  1100  so as to achieve electric connection with the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210 . 
     The first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210  are electrically connected to the detection circuit  1500 , so that the detection circuit  1500  may detect a resistance value of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  through the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210 , so as to determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid. 
     It should be noted that, a first liquid level height corresponding to the detection element  1300  is not equal to a second liquid level height corresponding to the reference element  1200 . That is, the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210  correspond to different liquid level heights. The liquid level heights of the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210  may be adjusted by setting lengths of the detection element  1300  and the reference element  1200  to be different. 
     By setting the first liquid level height and the second liquid level height to be different, when the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is different, resistance values of the to-be-vaporized liquid detected by the detection circuit  1500  through the two electrically-connected detection terminals are different, so that a state of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  can be determined. 
     For example, the first liquid level height may be set as a liquid level height when the liquid storage cavity  1100  is full of liquid or approaches full filling. In other words, the first conductive port  1310  may be arranged close to a top wall of the liquid storage cavity  1100 . The second liquid level height is a liquid level height when the remaining volume of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is less or no liquid is contained in the liquid storage cavity. In other words, the second conductive port  1210  may be arranged close to a bottom wall of the liquid storage cavity  1100 . 
     Through such a setting manner, when the liquid level of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is lower than the second liquid level height, the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210  are both insulated from the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100 . In other words, the detection element  1300  and the reference element  1200  are not in conductive connection to the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100 . The resistance values of to-be-vaporized liquid detected by the detection circuit  1500  through the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210  are infinite (equivalent to open circuit of the detection terminals) so that a small liquid remaining volume or no liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  may be determined. In other words, the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is determined as zero, namely no oil (that is, the first remaining volume), and the user needs to be reminded to supplement the to-be-vaporized liquid. 
     When the liquid level of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is higher than the first liquid level height and the second liquid level height, the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210  are both in conductive connection to the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100 . The to-be-vaporized liquid detected by the detection circuit  1500  through the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210  has a certain resistance value so that it can be determined that the remaining volume of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is full (that is, the third remaining volume). 
     When the liquid level of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is higher than or equal to the second liquid level height and lower than the first liquid level height, the first conductive port  1310  is insulated from the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100 , and the second conductive port  1210  is in conductive connection to the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100 . A resistance value of the to-be-vaporized liquid detected by the detection circuit  1500  through the first conductive port  1310  is infinite, and the to-be-vaporized liquid detected by the detection circuit through the second conductive port  1210  has a certain resistance value so that it can be determined that the remaining volume of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is between no oil and full oil (half oil, that is, the second remaining volume). 
     In another embodiment, a first liquid level height and a second liquid level height may be set according to needs. For example, it may be set that when the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is 80% or more of a volume of the liquid storage cavity  1100 , it is considered that a remaining volume state of the liquid is the third remaining volume (full oil), and therefore the first liquid level height is a liquid level height when the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid accounts for 80% of the volume of the liquid storage cavity  1100 . When the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid accounts for 20% or less of the volume of the liquid storage cavity  1100 , it is considered that the remaining volume state of the liquid is the first remaining volume (no oil), and therefore the second liquid level height is a liquid level height when the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid accounts for 20% of the volume of the liquid storage cavity  1100 . 
     Compared with the prior art, in the liquid storage assembly  1000  provided by this application, since the liquid storage cavity  1100  is provided with the two conductive ports, namely the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210 , and the liquid storage cavity  1100  is provided with a detection electrode and a reference electrode, when the detection circuit  1500  detects the to-be-vaporized liquid, the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid can be determined according to a relative value of the detection electrode and the reference electrode. Detection of the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is simple in design and low in cost, and the remaining volume is determined in a manner of comparing the two detection terminals, so that a situation in which the detection precision is influenced by the detection circuit  1500  due to a change in the resistance value of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is avoided, and the detection result is not likely to cause an erroneous determination. 
     Referring to  FIG.  12   ,  FIG.  12    is a schematic structural diagram of a third embodiment of the liquid storage assembly  1000  according to the second example of the present invention. The detection circuit  1500  includes a detection module  1510  and a control module  1520 . 
     The detection module  1510  is electrically connected to a first conductive port  1310  and a second conductive port  1210 . Specifically, the detection module  1510  acquires a first electrical signal by detecting the first conductive port  1310 , and acquires a second electrical signal by detecting a second conductive port  1210 . The control module  1520  is connected to the detection module  1510 . The control module  1520  may determine a first resistance value of to-be-vaporized liquid according to the first electrical signal, determine a second resistance value of the to-be-vaporized liquid according to the second electrical signal, and determine a remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid according to the first resistance value and the second resistance value. 
     Specifically, the control module  1520  has an Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) module, a calculation module, and a determining module. The ADC module may convert analog signals into digital signals. The ADC module may determine a first voltage value according to the first electrical signal. The calculation module may calculate the first resistance value of the to-be-vaporized liquid according to the first voltage value. Similarly, the ADC module may determine a second voltage value according to the second electrical signal, and the calculation module may calculate the second resistance value of the to-be-vaporized liquid according to the second voltage value. 
     In this embodiment, as shown in  FIG.  12   , the determining module may determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid according to the first resistance value and the second resistance value. In this embodiment, the first liquid level height is greater than the second liquid level height. It may be set that when the resistance value is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, it is considered that the liquid is insulated from the conductive ports, and when the resistance value is less than the preset threshold, it is considered that the liquid communicates with the conductive ports. For example, when the first resistance value is greater than or equal to 1 MΩ, it is considered that the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is insulated from the first conductive port  1310 , and when the first resistance value is less than 1 MΩ, it is considered that the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is in conductive connection to the first conductive port  1310 . 
     Specifically, when the determining module determines that both the first resistance value and the second resistance value are greater than or equal to the preset threshold, that is, the to-be-vaporized liquid is insulated from the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210 , the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is determined to the first remaining volume (no oil). 
     When the determining module determines that the first resistance value is greater than or equal to the preset threshold and the second resistance value is less than the preset threshold, that is, the to-be-vaporized liquid is insulated from the first conductive port  1310  and is in conductive connection to the second conductive port  1210 , the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is determined to be the second remaining volume (half oil). 
     When the determining module determines that both the first resistance value and the second resistance value are less than the preset threshold, that is, the to-be-vaporized liquid is in conductive connection to the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210 , the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is determined to be the third remaining volume (full oil). 
     A manner for determining the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid through the first resistance value and the second resistance value is simple, and compared with a manner for determining the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid through a resistance value, the problem that a detection result is inaccurate due to fluctuation of resistance values of the to-be-vaporized liquid is solved. The detection manner is not likely to cause a wrong determining result, and therefore usage experience of the user is improved. 
     In an implementation, the liquid storage assembly  1000  further includes an indication module. The indication module is connected to the determining module, and configured to indicate the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid determined by the control module  1520 . The indication module may be, for example, a display window, a display screen, an indicator lamp, or the like. The indication module may provide a remaining volume result of the to-be-vaporized liquid determined by the control module  1520  to the user so as to indicate the user about whether the to-be-vaporized liquid needs to be supplied into the liquid storage assembly  1000  or not. 
     Referring to  FIG.  13   ,  FIG.  13    is a schematic structural diagram of a fourth embodiment of the liquid storage assembly  1000  of according to the second example of the present invention. A detection module  1510  includes a first voltage dividing unit  1511  and a second voltage dividing unit  1512 . 
     A first end S 3  of the first voltage dividing unit  1511  is configured to input a set voltage, and a second end S 1  of the first voltage dividing unit  1511  is electrically connected to a first conductive port  1310 . A first end S 4  of the second voltage dividing unit  1512  is configured to input a set voltage, and a second end S 2  of the second voltage dividing unit  1512  is electrically connected to a second conductive port  1210 . Specifically, the set voltage may be a voltage of a power supply. A positive pole of the power supply is connected to the first end S 3  of the first voltage dividing unit  1511  and the first end S 4  of the second voltage dividing unit  1512 . A negative pole of the power supply is connected to a ground (GND). In this embodiment, a negative pole of a vaporization core  1400  serves as a GND of the detection module  1510 . 
     A first detection end AD_T 1  of a control module  1520  is connected to a first voltage dividing node O 1  of the first voltage dividing unit  1511  so as to acquire a first electrical signal of the first voltage dividing node O 1 . A second detection end AD_T 2  of the control module  1520  is connected to a second voltage dividing node O 2  of the second voltage dividing unit  1512  so as to acquire a second electrical signal of the second voltage dividing node O 2 . An ADC module of the control module  1520  may collect the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal at a certain frequency through the first detection end AD_T 1  and the second detection end AD_T 2  so as to determine a first voltage value and a second voltage value according to the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal. 
     Each voltage dividing unit may be a voltage dividing circuit formed by connecting at least two resistors in series. Each voltage dividing node may be a connection node between every two adjacent resistors. For example, in this embodiment, the first voltage dividing unit  1511  and the second voltage dividing unit  1512  are both voltage dividing circuits formed by respectively connecting two resistors in series. 
     The first voltage dividing unit  1511  includes a first resistor R 1  and a second resistor R 2 . A first end of the first resistor R 1  is electrically connected to the first conductive port  1310 . A second end of the first resistor R 1  is connected to a first end of the second resistor R 2 . The first end of the second resistor R 2  is connected to the second end of the first resistor R 1 . A second end of the second resistor R 2  inputs a set voltage. The first voltage dividing node O 1  is a connection node between the first resistor R 1  and the second resistor R 2 . 
     The second voltage dividing unit  1512  includes a third resistor R 3  and a fourth resistor R 4 . A first end of the third resistor R 3  is electrically connected to the second conductive port  1210 . A second end of the third resistor R 3  is connected to a first end of the fourth resistor R 4 . The first end of the fourth resistor R 4  is connected to the second end of the third resistor R 3 . A second end of the fourth resistor R 4  inputs a set voltage. The second voltage dividing node O 2  is a connection node between the third resistor R 3  and the fourth resistor R 4 . 
     The control module  1520  is connected to the voltage dividing nodes of the voltage dividing units, and the voltage dividing units are connected to detection terminals, so that when the detection terminals and liquid in a liquid storage cavity  1100  are in conductive connection instead of electric insulation, equivalent resistance of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  and the voltage dividing units jointly perform voltage dividing, and accordingly electrical signals at the voltage dividing nodes of the voltage dividing units change. When the detection terminals and the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  are electrically insulated instead of conductive connection, that is, the equivalent resistance of the liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is disconnected from the voltage dividing units, accordingly, the electrical signals at the voltage dividing nodes of the voltage dividing units change. Accordingly, the control module  1520  may calculate a resistance value (infinity or a certain resistance value) of the to-be-vaporized liquid detected through the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210  according to changes of the electrical signals at the voltage dividing nodes, so as to determine the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid. 
     Referring to  FIG.  14   ,  FIG.  14    is a schematic structural diagram of a fifth embodiment of the liquid storage assembly  1000  according to the second example of the present invention. In an embodiment, a detection module  1510  further includes a switching unit  1513 . The switching unit  1513  is configured to control a set voltage to be conveyed to voltage dividing units. The switching unit  1513  may be, for example, a P type transistor or an N type transistor. This embodiment takes the P type transistor as an example. 
     An input end of the switching unit  1513  is configured to input the set voltage. An output end of the switching unit  1513  is connected to a first end S 3  of a first voltage dividing unit  1511  and a first end S 4  of a second voltage dividing unit  1512 . A control end of the switching unit  1513  is connected to a control enabling end OIL_EN of the control module  1520 . Specifically, when the control enabling end OIL_EN receives an enabling signal, a low level is inputted to the control end of the switching unit  1513  so that the switching unit  1513  may be turned on. The set voltage is inputted to the first end S 3  of the first voltage dividing unit and the first end S 4  of the second voltage dividing unit  1512 . Accordingly, the control module  1520  can determine a first resistance value and a second resistance value of to-be-vaporized liquid according to electrical signals of voltage dividing nodes and determine a remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid according to the first resistance value and the second resistance value. 
     In an implementation, the control module  1520  turns on the switching unit  1513  when the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid needs to be detected, and turns off the switching unit  1513  when the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid does not need to be detected. For example, the switching unit  1513  may be turned on after a vaporizer is started, and the switching unit  1513  is turned off after the vaporizer is turned off. Or, the switching unit  1513  may be turned on after the control module  1520  receives a detection instruction from a user, and the switching unit  1513  is turned off after a stop instruction from the user is received. Or, the switching unit  1513  is automatically turned off in a period of time after the switching unit  1513  is turned on. 
     By arranging the switching unit  1513  in the detection module  1510 , when the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  does not need to be detected, the switching unit  1513  may be turned off, to stop conveying a supply voltage to the detection module  1510 , thereby improving circuit safety, and reducing energy waste. 
     Referring to  FIG.  15   ,  FIG.  15    is a schematic structural diagram of a sixth embodiment of the liquid storage assembly  1000  of according to the second example of the present invention. A detection module  1510  further includes a first voltage follower Q 1  and a second voltage follower Q 2 . An input end of the first voltage follower Q 1  is connected to a first voltage dividing node O 1 . An output end of the first voltage follower Q 1  is connected to a first detection end AD_T 1  of a control module  1520 . An input end of the second voltage follower Q 2  is connected to a second voltage dividing node O 2 . An output end of the second voltage follower Q 2  is connected to a second detection end AD_T 2  of the control module  1520 . By arranging the voltage followers in the control module  1520  and the voltage dividing units, mutual interference between the control module  1520  and the voltage dividing units may be isolated. In this case, a buffer function is achieved, and normal work of circuits is guaranteed.

     Referring to  FIG.  19   ,  FIG.  19    is a schematic flowchart of a remaining volume detection method for to-be-vaporized liquid according to the second example of the present invention. The remaining volume detection method is used for detecting remaining volume of to-be-vaporized liquid. The detection method may be applied to the above liquid storage assembly  1000 , vaporizer  3000 , battery assembly  5000 , and electronic vaporization apparatus. In this embodiment, the remaining volume detection method includes the following steps: 
     Step S 21 : Acquire a first electrical signal of a first conductive port, and acquire a second electrical signal of a second conductive port. 
     Specifically, a first voltage dividing node O 1  of a first voltage dividing unit  1511  and a second voltage dividing node O 2  of a second voltage dividing unit  1512  may be acquired at a certain frequency so as to acquire the first electrical signal and the second electrical signal.

A second voltage value is determined according to the second electrical signal, and the second resistance value of the to-be-vaporized liquid is calculated according to the second voltage value. 
     Step S 23 : Determine a remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid according to the first resistance value and the second resistance value. 
     Specifically, it may be set that when the resistance value is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, it is considered that the liquid is insulated from detection terminals, and when the resistance value is less than the preset threshold, it is considered that the liquid communicates with the detection terminals. For example, when the first resistance value is greater than or equal to 1 MΩ, it is considered that the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is insulated from the first conductive port  1310 , and when the first resistance value is less than 1 MΩ, it is considered that the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity  1100  is in conductive connection to the first conductive port  1310 . 
     Specifically, in an embodiment, a first liquid level height is greater than a second liquid level height. When it is determined that the first resistance value and the second resistance value are both greater than or equal to the preset threshold, that is, the to-be-vaporized liquid is insulated from the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210 , the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is determined to be no oil. 
     When it is determined that the first resistance value is greater than or equal to the preset threshold and the second resistance value is less than the preset threshold, that is, the to-be-vaporized liquid is insulated from the first conductive port  1310  and is in conductive connection to the second conductive port  1210 , the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is determined to be in a half oil state. 
     When it is determined that the first resistance value and the second resistance value are both less than the preset threshold, that is, the to-be-vaporized liquid is in conductive connection to the first conductive port  1310  and the second conductive port  1210 , the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid is determined to be full oil. 
     The two electrical signals are acquired through the first conductive port and the second conductive port, and the first resistance value and the second resistance value of the to-be-vaporized liquid are determined according to the two electrical signals. In addition, a manner of determining the remaining volume of the to-be-vaporized liquid through the first resistance value and the second resistance value is simple. Compared with a manner of determining a remaining volume of e-liquid through one resistance value, by using a manner of determining the remaining volume by comparing the two resistance values, a situation in which the detection precision is influenced due to a change in the resistance value of the to-be-vaporized liquid in the liquid storage cavity is avoided, and the detection result is not likely to cause an erroneous determination, thereby improving usage experience of the user.
