In addition, the steel shell cylindrical battery is a regular cylinder with a positive electrode at one end and a negative electrode at the other end. It has good assembly and disassembly convenience, but the safety of the steel shell battery is poor, and the battery is heavy, which is not suitable for most consumer electronic products.

Specifically, the battery negative electrode 5 is located at the side end of the battery 2, and is attached to the battery 2 through highland barley paper or EVA cotton, so that the battery negative electrode 5 is in contact with the metal shell 1, so that the metal shell 1 can be used as the negative electrode of the battery structure; the battery positive electrode 3 is connected to the metal cap 6, so that the metal cap 6 can be used as the positive electrode of the battery structure.

[0032] With respect to the deficiencies of the prior art, in the present invention, by electrically connecting the battery negative electrode 5 to the metal shell 1, the metal shell 1 can be used as the negative electrode of the battery structure; by electrically connecting the battery positive electrode 3 to the metal cap 6, the metal cap 6 can be used as the positive electrode of the battery structure, and this battery structure can be easily assembled and disassembled, which can greatly save the manufacturing cost of the electronic cigarette production end and improve work efficiency, and can effectively improve the battery safety. The used battery can be easily disassembled and recycled, so that the electronic atomizer battery structure has the advantages of easy disassembly and assembly, recyclability and high safety.

[0033] It is worth mentioning that the battery structure of the present invention does not need to adopt the method of welding nickel strips on the protective plate or adding wires for connection. Instead, by using the metal shell 1 as the negative electrode of the battery structure and the metal cap 6 as the positive electrode of the battery structure, the complexity of the operation can be reduced during the assembly of the battery structure of the present invention, thereby improving the assembly efficiency. Moreover, the battery structure of the present invention can adopt lighter batteries such as lighter soft-pack batteries or capacitive lithium batteries, and does not need to adopt heavier batteries such as steel shell cylinders. Therefore, the battery structure of the present invention has better assembly and disassembly convenience, is safe enough, and can be suitable for most consumer electronic products.

[0036] It should be noted that the shapes of the air hole 11 and the smoke hole 12 include but are not limited to circle, square, triangle, and the size is not limited. Of course, the air hole 11 and the smoke hole 12 can also be other shapes, which can also be within the scope of implementation of the present invention; in addition, due to the setting of the insulating part 8, the charging interface 13 can avoid contact with the battery 2 to avoid short circuit and improve safety.

[0037] Embodiment 2:

[0038] The main difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the second embodiment does not use the insulating member 8 of the first embodiment, and the details are as follows:

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the electronic atomizer battery structure includes a metal shell 1, a battery 2 is arranged in the metal shell 1, the battery 2 has a battery positive electrode 3 and a battery negative electrode 5, the battery negative electrode 5 is electrically connected to the metal shell 1, a metal cap 6 is arranged at one end of the metal shell 1, the battery positive electrode 3 is electrically connected to the metal cap 6; a protective plate 7 is arranged in the metal shell 1, the protective plate 7 is arranged between the metal cap 6 and the battery 2; the metal cap 6 is electrically connected to the protective plate 7, a metal sheet is arranged on the protective plate 7, and the metal sheet is electrically connected to the battery positive electrode 3.

Specifically, the battery negative electrode 5 is located at the side end of the battery 2 and is attached to the battery 2 through highland barley paper or EVA cotton, so that the battery negative electrode 5 is in contact with the metal shell 1, so that the metal shell 1 can serve as the negative electrode of the battery structure; the battery positive electrode 3 is connected to the metal cap 6, so that the metal cap 6 can serve as the positive electrode of the battery structure.

[0040] It can be understood that the protection plate 7 is electrically connected to the battery positive electrode 3 through the metal sheet, and is electrically connected to the protection plate 7 through the metal cap 6, so that the metal cap 6 can serve as the positive electrode of the battery structure.

[0041] Embodiment three:

[0042] The main difference between the third embodiment and the above embodiments is that the negative electrode 5 of the battery in the third embodiment is not in direct contact with the metal shell 1, but the negative electrode 5 of the battery is plugged into the protective plate 7, and the protective plate 7 is electrically connected to the metal shell 1 through the nickel strip 10, so as to realize that the metal shell 1 is used as the negative electrode of the battery structure; in addition, the third embodiment does not adopt the insulating member 8 between the battery 2 and the protective plate 7 of the first embodiment, which is as follows:

[0043] like Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, the battery structure of an electronic atomizer includes a metal shell 1, a battery 2 is arranged in the metal shell 1, the battery 2 has a positive battery electrode 3 and a negative battery electrode 5, the negative battery electrode 5 is electrically connected to the metal shell 1, and a metal cap 6 is arranged at one end of the metal shell 1, the positive battery electrode 3 is electrically connected to the metal cap 6; a protective plate 7 is arranged in the metal shell 1, and the protective plate 7 is arranged between the metal cap 6 and the battery 2; the positive battery electrode 3 and the negative battery electrode 5 are both plugged into the protective plate 7, the protective plate 7 has a positive protective plate electrode and a negative protective plate electrode, the negative protective plate electrode is electrically connected to the metal shell 1 through a nickel strip 10, and the positive protective plate electrode is electrically connected to the metal cap 6.

[0044] It can be understood that by plugging both the battery positive electrode 3 and the battery negative electrode 5 into the protective plate 7, and electrically connecting the negative electrode of the protective plate to the metal shell 1 through the nickel strip 10, the metal shell 1 serves as the negative electrode of the battery structure, and electrically connecting the positive electrode of the protective plate to the metal cap 6, so that the metal cap 6 serves as the positive electrode of the battery structure; in addition, since the battery positive electrode 3 and the battery negative electrode 5 are both guide pins, by plugging both the battery positive electrode 3 and the battery negative electrode 5 into the protective plate 7, they can have better insulation, so there is no need to set an insulating member 8 between the battery 2 and the protective plate 7.

[0045] In addition, the present invention also provides an electronic cigarette, which includes the electronic atomizer battery structure. Specifically, the specific structure of the electronic atomizer battery structure of the electronic cigarette refers to the above embodiment. Since the electronic atomizer battery structure adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0046] It should be noted that, since the electronic cigarette includes the electronic atomizer battery structure, the electronic cigarette can easily disassemble and assemble the battery structure to improve the usability of the electronic cigarette.
