Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of smoking devices, specifically to a hookah. Background Technology
[0002] Hookah is a form of smoking where the smoke from tobacco or its substitutes is filtered through a liquid such as water before being inhaled. This method of smoking allows many harmful components in the smoke to be filtered out, reducing harm to the body. This advantage has led to its widespread popularity in recent years. However, unlike traditional cigarette smoking, hookah requires specialized equipment; currently, hookah is smoked through a hookah bowl. Typically, a hookah bowl consists of a bowl, a pipe, a water container, and a mouthpiece. The smoke from the tobacco in the bowl is introduced into the water container through the pipe, filtered to remove impurities, and then inhaled through the mouthpiece. Currently, the smoke from the tobacco in the bowl is usually produced by burning charcoal. Burning charcoal produces carbon monoxide, and the charcoal itself can spark, posing a safety hazard. Therefore, a type of alternative has emerged on the market. Its basic tobacco bowl (tobacco paste cup) uses a peripheral heating element, meaning it's heated by a heating wire wrapped around the perimeter of the bowl. This means that when the temperature is high, the tobacco paste near the heating wire is prone to burning, while at lower temperatures, it takes a very long time to burn the paste evenly. Furthermore, regardless of how evenly the peripheral heating is burned, the flavor of the tobacco paste itself will be diluted, affecting the taste; and the wire-like heating elements currently on the market are prone to burnout over time, shortening the product's lifespan.

Detailed Implementation
[0024] The embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0025] Depend on Figure 1 Combination Figure 2-3 As shown, a hookah includes a shell 1, and further includes:
[0026] Container 2, connected to shell 1, is used to contain liquid media;
[0027] The material pot 3 is connected to the shell 1 and is used to hold the tobacco paste; the material pot 3 is provided with a receiving cavity 31.
[0028] Heating component 4, which includes a heating element 41 for heating the tobacco paste in the material pot 3, wherein the heating element 41 is disposed above the material pot 3.
[0029] The central tube 5 is connected at one end to the accommodating cavity 31 of the material pot 3, and at the other end to the container 2.
[0030] The first air pipe 61, connected to the container 2, serves as a channel for extracting the flue gas medium from the container 2 when the heating element 4 is working. The beneficial effects of this invention are that placing the heating element above the slurry pot allows the tobacco paste inside to be heated evenly, resulting in a faster time from start-up to smoke output, improved smoke output efficiency, and less scorching of the tobacco paste, preserving its original flavor and improving taste. This invention also features a simple structure, easy assembly, and long service life. Specifically, traditional Arabic hookah uses an insulating layer, such as aluminum foil or a metal mesh, placed on the slurry pot before placing the burned charcoal on top. While the charcoal doesn't directly burn the tobacco paste, its heat is still transferred downwards. However, burning charcoal produces carbon monoxide, and the charcoal itself can produce sparks, posing a safety hazard. In this invention, because the heating element is positioned above the slurry pot, the entire upper surface of the tobacco paste is heated during operation, resulting in more even heat distribution. Furthermore, when smoking, the air is drawn in from top to bottom (outside air enters through the ventilation holes on the support). With each puff, the combined effect of the air and the heated surface of the tobacco paste causes the flavor of the tobacco paste to be released all at once, resulting in a better-tasting smoke medium. This avoids the problem of uneven heating of the tobacco paste caused by the periphery of peripherally heated hookahs being higher than the center temperature, leading to burning and masking of the tobacco paste's flavor. It also avoids the problem of a harsh, raw smoke taste and long waiting time associated with peripherally heated hookahs when the heating wire is too cold, and solves the problem of a burnt taste when the temperature is too high.
[0031] The heating assembly 4 includes a heating base 42 and a heating cover 43. The heating element 41 is disposed within the heating base 42, and the heating cover 43 is placed on top of the heating base 42. The heating base 42 is positioned above the material container 3. Specifically, the heating element 41 is plate-shaped and covers the upper part of the material container 3's receiving cavity 31. Using a plate-shaped heating element ensures uniform and surface heating of the tobacco paste, facilitating smoke activation. Furthermore, the heating element's placement above the tobacco paste...
[0032] The flavor of the tobacco paste is easily discernible because the heat is very even when it starts working, and the time from start-up to smoke production is relatively fast. This innovative method closely resembles the effect of traditional charcoal-fired hookahs, avoiding the burning of the tobacco paste by the surrounding heating wire. Furthermore, the sheet-shaped heating element will not burn out even after prolonged use, resulting in a long product lifespan.
[0033] This utility model also includes a control circuit board 71, a power supply 72, a stationary contact 73, and a moving contact 74. The power supply 72 and the stationary contact 73 are electrically connected to the control circuit board 71. The moving contact 74 is disposed on the heating element 4 and electrically connected to the heating element 41. The moving contact 74 has a first position where it is in contact with the stationary contact 73 and a second position where it is separated from the stationary contact 73. Specifically, the heating element 4 is provided with a mounting sleeve 75 and an elastic element 76. The moving contact 74 passes through the mounting sleeve 75 and slides in cooperation with it. The elastic element 76 abuts against the moving contact 74 and, when the moving contact 74 is in the first position, has a tendency to drive the moving contact 74 closer to the stationary contact 73. This allows the moving contact to separate from the stationary contact when the emulsion needs to be replaced, facilitating quick and easy removal of the heating element. The connection between the heating element, the stationary contact, and the control circuit board is reliable. Rotation allows the moving contact and the stationary contact to engage, facilitating circuit conduction. In practice, the moving contact can be provided with pre-pressure by an elastic element or with attraction by a magnetic element, so that the moving contact and the stationary contact can be reliably attached.
[0034] This utility model also includes a heat insulation sleeve 81 and a heat preservation sleeve 82. The heat insulation sleeve 81 is sleeved on the outside of the material pot 3, and the heat preservation sleeve 82 is disposed between the material pot 3 and the heat insulation sleeve 81. The heat preservation sleeve can reduce energy loss and energy consumption, and the heat insulation component prevents the heat from the material pot from being transferred to the shell and causing the shell to deform.
[0035] This invention also includes a bracket 9, which is sleeved around the heating element 4 and linked with it. The bracket 9 has a heat dissipation and ventilation hole 91. The bracket is linked with the heating element, and the heating element can be removed by rotating the bracket, making it easy to take out the flask for cleaning or topping. Specifically, the horizontal rotation of the bracket causes the moving contact and the heating element to rotate horizontally synchronously. The moving contact and the stationary contact engage or disengage, allowing the circuit to be quickly connected or disconnected. After the moving contact and the stationary contact are engaged, pressing the control button will cause the control circuit board to issue a control command. The heat dissipation and ventilation hole can dissipate some heat when the heating element is heating up. At the same time, the hole also serves as an air circulation hole, connecting the outside air to the flask cavity through the bracket. This facilitates the overall introduction of outside air and the smoke medium generated by the smoke medium into the liquid medium of the container, bringing down all the flavor of the smoke medium, resulting in a better taste of the smoke medium produced by this invention.
[0036] The housing 1 is a frustum-shaped structure, wider at the bottom than the top. The upper end of the housing 1 is recessed inward to form a receiving groove 11 for accommodating the material pot 3. The bracket 9 is connected to the heat insulation sleeve 81 and / or the housing 1 via a rotating snap-fit connection. This structure facilitates the installation of components such as the material pot and is simple in design. The bracket in this invention allows for easy hand-held operation, installation, or removal of the heating element; it is simple in structure and convenient to operate.
[0037] This utility model also includes a drain pipe 51, one end of which is connected to the central pipe 5, and the other end is inserted into the liquid medium in the container 2. The drain pipe 51 is provided with a connecting hole for the discharge of flue gas. The connecting hole can be located at the bottom of the drain pipe or on the side below the drain pipe, which facilitates the entry of flue gas into the liquid medium.
[0038] This invention also includes a second air pipe 62 and a valve ball 63 for blocking the second air pipe 62. The second air pipe 62 is arc-shaped, and the valve ball 63 is located inside the second air pipe 62 and opens when the first air pipe 61 is blown in the opposite direction, connecting the container 2 to the outside of the shell 1. When smoking, the smoke medium first exists in the container and is filtered by water before being drawn out through the first air pipe. Residual smoke remains in the bottle. After a period of time, the smell changes, or a different person smokes it, or a different tobacco paste is used. Air can be blown into the container through the first air pipe, at which point the valve ball can be opened to expel the residual smoke from the container. The liquid medium in the container is usually water.
