Benefits of technology

[0018]2. The base axially abuts against an end of the liquid conductor, and the liquid conductor has a great flexibility; accordingly, whether the aperture is full with the wick or not, the liquid conductor is capable of becoming deformed to extrude the wick received in the aperture for sealing and throttling. Mor

Problems solved by technology

The fixation of the heating element is not very stable for its position being prone to change.
Furthermore, only a small amount of liquid can be stored in the cotton, and the cotton surrounds around the heatin

example one

[0043]Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a first embodiment of an electronic cigarette 100 includes a mouthpiece 10, a cartridge 20, an atomizer assembly 30, a power supply assembly 40, and a control power unit (not shown), which are connected in that order.

[0044]The mouthpiece 10 is shaped approximately as circular plate. The mouthpiece 10 defines an air outlet 110 for the air entering and going out. In the illustrated embodiment, the mouthpiece 10 is provided with a flange 112 on the end close to the cartridge 20. The cartridge 20 directly sleeves and engages to the flange 112. Alternatively, the cartridge 20 can also be threadedly connected to the flange 112. Further, a seal element (not shown) is provided between the flange 112 and the cartridge 20 for avoiding leakage of the smoke. The mouthpiece 10 is made of ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) plastic.

[0045]The cartridge 20 is approximately shaped as a cylinder, which includes a first shell 210 and a second shell 220 surroundi...

example two

[0059]The electronic cigarette 100 of a second embodiment is similar to that of the first embodiment, the different is that: the liquid conductor is made of ceramics, resin, or other rigid insulation materials but not silicone. The liquid conductor 340 seals and engages the opening of the liquid reservoir 240 by a seal ring 348. The base 330 is made of silicone; accordingly, the wick 322 can also be extruded by the liquid conductor 340, and the amount of the liquid absorbed by the wick 322 can be adjusted. Moreover, the axial space between the base 330 and the liquid conductor 340 can also be adjusted by the base 330.

[0060]Further, in the illustrated embodiment, the liquid conductor 340 is made of porous ceramics. The outlet hole 344 is formed by the micropores of the liquid conductor 340. The liquid is capable of permeating through the micropores to the front face of the base 330. Referring to FIG. 6, the aperture 334 is distributed in spiral (radial); at least partially the wick 3...

Abstract

An electronic cigarette includes a cartridge and an atomizer assembly. The cartridge has a chimney and a liquid reservoir with an opening. The atomizer assembly includes an atomizer sleeve; a liquid conductor plugging the opening, a base axially abuts against the liquid conductor, and a heating element positioned between the liquid conductor and the base; the liquid conductor, the base and the heating element are received in the atomizer sleeve. The atomizer sleeve defines an air channel. The base defines an aperture communicated to the air channel. The heating element includes a linear wick and a heating wire twined around the wick. The wick without being twined by the heating wire is received in the aperture. The liquid conductor defines an outlet hole for transferring liquid to the wire. The heating wire and the wick are positioned in the air channel.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present disclosure relates to an electronic atomizing device, and more particularly relates to an electronic cigarette.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The electronic cigarette is also known as a virtual cigarette or an electronic atomizer. As a substitute for cigarette, the electronic cigarette is usually used for smoking cessation. The appearance and taste of electronic cigarette are similar to those of the conventional cigarette, while it does not contain tar, suspended particles and other harmful ingredients as the conventional cigarette.[0003]The electronic cigarette is mainly composed of an atomizer and a battery assembly. Usually, the atomizer includes some cotton for storing liquid, a heating wire, a liquid conductor, a heating wire support, and positive and negative electrodes of the atomizer and so on. A heating element of the electronic cigarette is generally formed by twining the heating wire around the heating wire support. The fixation o...
