The terms used in the specification of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0055] like Fig.18As shown, the electronic cigarette to be assembled in the embodiment of the present invention includes an atomizer core 6, an atomizer core seal 5, a cartridge bracket 4, an atomizer core base 7, a bracket seal 3, an oil cup shell 2, a lower silicone plug 8 and an upper silicone plug 1. During assembly, the atomizer core 6 and the atomizer core seal 5 are first assembled into a first assembly, the first assembly and the cartridge bracket 4 are assembled into a second assembly, the second assembly and the atomizer core base 7 are assembled into a third assembly, the third assembly and the bracket seal 3 are assembled into a fourth assembly, the fourth assembly is installed in the oil cup shell 2 to assemble into a fifth assembly, and finally the lower silicone plug 8 and the upper silicone plug 1 are assembled with the fifth assembly to form a finished electronic cigarette.

[0056] Example 1: Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the atomizer core seal installation station 70 of the present embodiment is used to assemble the atomizer core and the atomizer core seal 5 to form a first assembly, including: an atomizer core seal workbench 71, an atomizer core feeding device 72 arranged on the atomizer core seal workbench 71, an atomizer core resistance detection device 73, a tip transport device 76, a double-track conveyor belt assembly 74, an atomizer core transfer and feeding mechanism 77, an atomizer core turntable assembly 79, an atomizer core seal feeding device 75, a first assembly riveting device 78, and a first assembly transfer and handling device 13.

[0057] like Figure 2 As shown, the atomizer core feeding device 72 includes a feeding mechanism fixing frame 721, a feeding track 725 arranged on the feeding mechanism fixing frame 721, a feeding motor 723 fixed to the end of the feeding track 725, a film material tray 724 linked to the feeding motor 723, a pressing roller 722 arranged on the feeding track 725, and a guide roller 726 fixed above the feeding track 725. The feeding track 725 is used to carry a carrier tape (not shown) equipped with the atomizer core 6; the feeding motor 723 is used to drive the carrier tape and the film material tray 724; the film material tray 724 is used to uncover and collect the cover film 727 on the carrier tape; the pressing roller 722 is used to make the carrier tape flat; and the guide roller 726 is used to support and guide the film material tray 724 when collecting the cover film 727. The working principle of the atomizer core feeding mechanism is as follows: the carrier tape carrying the atomizer core 6 enters from the end of the feeding track 725 away from the feeding motor 723, and is pressed under the pressing roller 722. The cover film 727 covering the carrier tape is wound around the film material disc 724 through the guide roller 726. The feeding motor 723 rotates to drive the carrier tape forward, and at the same time, the film material disc 724 rotates synchronously to uncover and collect the cover film 727 to expose the atomizer core 6 on the carrier tape for material collection.

[0058] like Figure 3As shown, the atomizer core resistance detection device 73 includes a mounting frame 732 fixedly connected to the atomizer core sealing member workbench 71, a detection device turntable assembly arranged on the mounting frame 732, a detection assembly, and a defective product box 733 arranged next to the mounting frame 732.

The detection assembly includes a detection lifting device 735, a detection probe seat 734 connected to the driving end of the detection lifting device 735, and a detection probe (not shown) arranged on the detection probe seat 734. When it is necessary to test the resistance of the atomizer core 6, the rotating disk driving device 731 drives the rotating disk 736 to rotate, so that the atomizer core 6 on the atomizer core carrier 737 rotates to the work station where the detection component is located, and the detection lifting device 735 drives the detection probe seat 734 to descend to the upper surface of the atomizer core 6 to detect the atomizer core 6. When the atomizer core 6 is detected as a defective product, the defective product is discarded in the defective product box 733.

[0059] like Figure 4As shown, the suction head transport device 76 includes an atomizer core slide module 761 fixed on the atomizer core seal workbench 71, and a suction head assembly slidably connected to the atomizer core slide module 761; the suction head assembly includes a suction head bracket 762 slidably connected to the atomizer core sliding module and two groups of suction head devices respectively arranged at both ends of the suction head bracket 762, each group of suction head devices includes two suction heads, wherein the suction head device close to the side of the atomizer core resistance detection device 73 is the first suction head device, and the suction head device away from the side of the atomizer core resistance detection device 73 is the second suction head device, and the distance between the two suction heads of the second suction head device is adjustable. In this embodiment, the second suction head device includes a variable pitch cylinder 763 and two second suction heads connected to the driving end of the variable pitch cylinder 763. The first suction head device is used to place the atomizer core 6 on the carrier tape on the turntable assembly of the detection device. The second suction head device is used to place the atomizer core 6 on the detection device turntable assembly onto the discharge conveyor belt of the double-track conveyor belt assembly 74. When the atomizer core 6 needs to be loaded, the two first suction heads 765 of the first suction head device suck the exposed atomizer core 6 on the carrier belt and place it on the atomizer core carrier 737 on the side of the detection device turntable assembly close to the atomizer core loading device 72; at the same time, the two second suction heads 764 of the second suction head device suck the two atomizer cores 6 on the atomizer core carrier 737 on the side of the detection device turntable assembly away from the atomizer core loading device 72 (at this time, the variable pitch cylinder 763 is in a retracted state, and the distance between the two second suction heads 764 is equal to the distance between the two first suction heads 765), and respectively place them on the two discharge conveyor belts (at this time, the variable pitch cylinder 763 is in an extended state, and the distance between the two second suction heads 764 is equal to the distance between the two discharge conveyor belts).

The discharge optical fiber 161 is used to detect whether there is material at the feed end of the discharge conveyor belt 162, to avoid the equipment from being stuck due to continued loading when there is material at the feed end of the discharge conveyor belt 162, and to ensure the normal operation of the equipment. The full material optical fiber 163 determines whether the material on the discharge conveyor belt 162 has reached saturation by the height of the material piled on the discharge conveyor belt 162, and controls the discharge drive device 164 to stop running when it is determined to be in a saturated state. The air blowing pipe is used to blow air to the material on the discharge conveyor belt 162 to speed up the conveying speed and increase the distance between the materials. The material taking platform device includes a material taking seat and a material taking seat driving device for driving the material taking seat to move. The material taking seat is provided with an atomizer core feed trough (not shown). When the atomizer core 6 needs to be taken, the material taking seat driving device drives the material taking seat to move so that the feed trough and the discharge conveyor belt are staggered. In this embodiment, the discharge driving device 164 is a speed regulating motor, and there are two discharge conveyor belts 162 in this embodiment, which can realize double material output and improve the production efficiency of the equipment.

[0061] The atomizer core transfer and loading mechanism 77 has the same principle as the first assembly transfer and handling device 13 , but does not require a rotating carrier 132 , and only requires an intermediate carrier 131 .

[0062] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the atomizer core turntable assembly 79 includes a turntable fixing seat 111, a fixed plate 113 fixed on the turntable fixing seat 111, a turntable 114 sleeved outside the fixed plate 113, a turntable driving device 112 for driving the turntable 114 to rotate, and a carrier 115 provided on the turntable 114, and the carrier 115 is used to clamp and fix the atomizer core seal 5. In this embodiment, the turntable driving device 112 is a DD motor, the stator of the DD motor is fixed on the turntable fixing seat 111, and the rotor of the DD motor is fixedly connected to the turntable 114.

There are multiple carriers 115, which are evenly distributed on the circumference of the turntable 114. In this embodiment, there are eight carriers 115, which specifically include a carrier fixing seat 1151 for fixing to the turntable 114, a carrier clamping block assembly provided on the carrier fixing seat 1151, a clamping block driving device (not shown), and a clamping block resetting device (not shown). There are two groups of carrier clamping block assemblies, that is, two products can be clamped on each carrier 115. Each group of carrier clamping block assemblies includes two carrier clamping blocks 1156, and a clamping block slider 1155 is fixedly connected to the bottom of each carrier clamping block 1156, and a clamping block pusher 1153 is provided below the clamping block slider 1155.

The clamping block slider 1155 and the clamping block push block 1153 are respectively provided with inclined surfaces for matching use at corresponding positions. The clamp block driving device is used to drive the carrier clamp block 1156 to open to place the product to be clamped. In this embodiment, the clamp block driving device is a cylinder, and the piston rod of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the clamp block push block 1153.The clamp resetting device is used to reset the opened carrier clamp 1156 to clamp the product to be clamped. In this embodiment, the resetting device is a resetting spring device. For example, a resetting spring can be arranged between the carrier clamp 1156 and the clamp limit plate 1152. When the resetting spring is in a free state, the distance between the two carrier clamps 1156 used in conjunction with each other is smaller than the length of the product to be clamped, thereby ensuring that the product is in a clamped state when clamping. The working process of the carrier 115 is as follows: the piston rod of the clamp block driving device extends upward, driving the clamp block push block 1153 to move upward, and the inclined surface of the clamp block push block 1153 causes the two carrier clamp blocks 1156 to move away from each other, so that the carrier clamp blocks 1156 are in an open state, at which time the product to be clamped can be placed. When the clamping is completed, the piston rod of the clamp block driving device is retracted downward, driving the clamp block push block 1153 to move downward, and the two carrier clamp blocks 1156 lose their thrust effect and move towards each other under the action of the force of the reset device until they contact the product to be clamped, thereby achieving the action of clamping the product. The fixed plate 113 is also provided with a product optical fiber detection device 116, and the product optical fiber detection device 116 is used to detect whether there is a product on the corresponding carrier 115. In the present embodiment, there are two product optical fiber detection devices 116, which are respectively arranged at the previous station and the next station corresponding to the station of the bracket loading device 12. When it is necessary to load the atomizer core seal 5, the product optical fiber detection device 116 at the previous station of the atomizer core seal loading device 75 detects that there is no product on the carrier 115 of the station, then the loading operation is performed when the carrier 115 rotates to the station of the atomizer core seal loading device 75. If it is detected that there is a product on the carrier 115 of the station, no loading is performed when it rotates to the next station. When the product optical fiber detection device 116 at the next station of the atomizer core seal loading device 75 detects that there is a product on the carrier 115 at the station, the atomizer core 6 is loaded when the carrier 115 rotates to the next station. When it is detected that there is no product on the carrier 115 at the station, no loading is performed when it rotates to the next station.

When the atomizer core seal 5 is in a preset position state, the material taking system is controlled to take the material, and the material taking system places the atomizer core seal 5 on the atomizer core seal turntable assembly 38 according to the instruction of the control system. Specifically, in this embodiment, the feeding system includes a vibrating feeding bin 338, a feeding bin straight vibrator 339, a vibrating discharge tray 333, and a discharge tray straight vibrator 332.

The atomizer core seal 5 is manually or automatically loaded into the vibrating feed bin 338, and is vibrated onto the vibrating discharge tray 333 by the feed bin vibrator 339. The CCD light source 335 illuminates the atomizer core seal 5 on the vibrating discharge tray 333, and the CCD camera 336 takes a picture of the atomizer core seal 5. When there is an atomizer core seal 5 that meets the preset position state, the CCD camera 336 sends the information to the processor, and the processor controls the material taking robot 337 to take away the atomizer core seal 5; when the CCD camera 336 takes a picture and detects that there is no atomizer core seal 5 that meets the preset position state, the information is sent to the processor, and the processor controls the discharge tray vibrator 332 to start, so that the position state of the atomizer core seal 5 on the vibrating discharge tray 333 changes, until the atomizer core seal 5 that meets the preset position state is found.
