Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electronic atomizing cigarettes, and in particular to a universal external mouthpiece for flavoring electronic atomizing cigarettes. Background Art

[0002] Currently available electronic cigarettes primarily heat atomized e-liquid to produce an aerosol with a specific aroma for smokers to inhale. However, the blending of e-liquids has limitations in terms of the natural tobacco flavor, such as the limited use of tobacco extracts and tobacco flavors. Furthermore, the limited nature of atomized e-liquid inhalation prevents smokers from experiencing a more pronounced, richer, and more distinctive tobacco aroma. Therefore, smokers are looking for a way to supplement the natural tobacco flavor with atomized e-liquid inhalation.

[0003] In terms of shape, e-cigarette cartridges can generally be categorized into two types: the round cylindrical shape of early simulated cigarettes and the flat cylindrical shape of current mainstream non-simulated cigarettes, with some differences between these flat cylindrical shapes. If a specific flavoring stick were required for each e-cigarette cartridge shape, the size of the stick would be difficult to determine, making it difficult to adapt to the various e-cigarette cartridge shapes.

[0004] In summary, the problems with existing technologies are: 1. Existing electronic atomizers lack the original tobacco aroma they provide; some flavoring components atomized from the e-liquid lack a pure, natural flavor. 2. Due to the diverse shapes of existing atomizer electronic cigarettes, it is difficult to achieve a universal fit for all external mouthpieces.

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of the current situation of electronic atomizing cigarettes, the present invention is based on the perspective of improving smokers' smoking experience of all electronic atomizing cigarettes, and invents a universal external mouthpiece for enhancing the flavor of electronic atomizing cigarettes.

[0007] The present invention provides smokers with a more pronounced tobacco aroma and a richer aroma style based on existing electronic atomizer cigarettes. In addition, the universal external mouthpiece for flavoring electronic atomizer cigarettes of the present invention can be compatible with electronic atomizer cigarettes of various shapes.

[0008] The present invention provides a universal external mouthpiece for flavoring electronic atomizing cigarettes, characterized in that it comprises a bottom mouthpiece 1 and a flavoring material placement tube 2;

[0009] The bottom sleeve 1 is a hollow trapezoidal column made of soft rubber material, which can be freely expanded and contracted under stress. Its inner diameter is smaller than the diameter of the electronic atomizer cartridge port and can be externally connected to all electronic atomizer cartridges. The central cavity inside it is the electronic atomizer cartridge accommodating area 11;

[0010] The flavoring material placement tube 2 is located above the bottom sleeve 1. The flavoring material placement tube 2 is a hollow cylinder made of hard heat-resistant plastic and has no odor when heated. The central cavity is the first flavoring material accommodating area 21.

[0011] The universal external mouthpiece for flavoring electronic atomizer cigarettes also includes a flavoring container 3, located outside the flavoring tube 2. The container 3 is made of a rigid, heat-resistant plastic that is odorless when heated and is bonded to the outside of the flavoring tube 2. The sidewall of the container has a cavity structure within it, which serves as a second flavoring container 31.

[0012] Preferably, the side wall of the flavoring material placement tube 2 is provided with an air vent 23, and the first flavoring material storage area 21 and the second flavoring material storage area 31 are connected by air flow through the air vent 23. The atomized smoke formed by suction diffuses from the first flavoring material storage area 21 to the second flavoring material storage area 31 through the air vent 23. The flavoring material placement tube 2 and the flavoring material storage bin 3 form a certain enclosed space. After the suction stops, the atomized smoke formed by suction still flows upward, reaches the breathable bottom surface of the flavoring material placement tube 2, and flows back downward, diffuses from the first flavoring material storage area 21 to the second flavoring material storage area 31 through the air vent 23, and the air vent 23 is used to store the flavoring material. Figure 1 During the 5-10 seconds between puffs of the electronic cigarette, the electronic cigarette smoke flavored by the first flavoring agent will diffuse through the vent 23 to the second flavoring agent storage area 31, where it will be flavored for the second time by the second flavoring agent, further continuously flavoring the smoke of the electronic cigarette and maintaining the richness of the aroma.

[0013] Preferably, there are multiple ventilation holes 23, which are evenly distributed on the side wall of the flavoring material placement tube 2 and in the area surrounded by the flavoring material placement chamber 3.

[0014] Preferably, the top surface of the flavoring material storage bin 3 is provided with an openable and closable buckle 32, and the second flavoring material storage area 31 is filled with the second flavoring material storage area 31 by opening the buckle 32, and the second flavoring material storage area 31 is connected to the first flavoring material storage area 21 by air flow only through the vent 23 by closing the buckle 32.

[0015] Preferably, the flavoring material placement tube 2 also has a breathable bottom surface 22, and the first flavoring material storage area 21 and the electronic atomization cartridge storage area 11 are connected by air flow through the breathable bottom surface 22, and the atomized smoke formed by suction diffuses from the electronic atomization cartridge storage area 11 through the breathable bottom surface 22 to the first flavoring material storage area 21. When a flavoring stick is added, the flavoring material placement tube 2 can be provided with no bottom surface, as long as the diameter of the flavoring stick matches the inner diameter of the first flavoring material storage area 21 so that the flavoring stick will not fall; when the first flavoring material is a flavoring granule, a flavoring powder, a flavoring gel, or a flavoring thread, the flavoring material placement tube 2 needs to be provided with a bottom surface, and at the same time, in order to ensure that gas can pass through, the bottom surface is a breathable bottom surface. The bottom surface can be made of a breathable material, or an airtight material can be used, but the bottom surface is made breathable by punching holes. The material and form of the breathable bottom surface should also be determined according to the actual flavoring material loaded.

[0016] Preferably, the bottom end of the flavoring material placement tube 2 is bonded to the top end of the electronic atomization cartridge accommodating area 11.

[0017] Preferably, the bottom sleeve 1 is made of soft rubber material, can be freely expanded and contracted under stress, and its inner diameter is smaller than the diameter of the electronic atomizer cartridge, and can be externally connected to the electronic atomizer cartridge;

[0018] The aroma-enhancing material placement tube 2 is made of hard, heat-resistant plastic and has no odor after being heated;

[0019] The aroma-enhancing material storage bin 3 is made of hard, heat-resistant plastic and has no peculiar smell after being heated.

[0020] Preferably, the first flavoring material in the first flavoring material storage area 21 can be flavoring particles, flavoring powder, flavoring gel, flavoring thread, or flavoring stick. The structure of the flavoring stick can refer to the patent application number 2021216188800, entitled "A Fragrance Compensating Aerosol Atomizer," or the patent application number 2021216188779, entitled "A Sustained-Release Flavoring Aerosol Atomizer," which has been applied for by the present applicant. Similarly, the structure of the aerosol atomizer can also refer to the aerosol atomizer used in the above-mentioned application. There are various forms of flavoring, and the smoke generated by the electronic atomizing cigarette enters the first flavoring material storage area 21 through the breathable bottom surface of the flavoring material placement tube 2, and the first flavoring substance in the first flavoring material storage area 21 is thermally eluted, thereby achieving the effect of flavoring the smoke.

[0021] Preferably, when the first flavoring material is flavoring particles, flavoring powder, flavoring gel, or flavoring thread, the flavoring material placement tube 2 also has a breathable sealed top surface 24; when the first flavoring material is a flavoring stick, the flavoring material placement tube 2 does not need to be provided with a sealed top surface 24, and the flavoring material placement bin 3 does not need to be provided.

[0022] Preferably, the second flavoring material in the second flavoring material storage area 31 can be a flavoring particle, a flavoring powder, a flavoring gel, or a flavoring thread. Preferably, the second flavoring material is one or more of porous plant particles that absorb flavors, flavoring particles granulated from natural plants and multiple flavors, coffee powder, fruit powder, Panax notoginseng powder, and other natural plant powder materials (refer to application number: 201811285170.3, patent name: A heat-not-burn cigarette smoke-generating particle material and preparation method thereof).
