[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0027] As attached Figure 1 To the attached Figure 5As shown, a fully automatic testing device for an electronic cigarette includes a testing module 1 and a power supply module 2. The testing module 1 is arranged above the power supply module 2. The testing module 1 includes a mounting plate 11 and an air tightness detection device. The air tightness detection device includes an air intake pipe 12. The air intake pipe 12 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 11. The air intake pipe 12 is connected to the suction port of the electronic cigarette 3. The power supply module 2 includes a power supply probe 21 connected to a power source. The power supply probe 21 is electrically connected to the electronic cigarette 3 to enable the electronic cigarette 3 to operate.

[0028] The air tightness detection device also includes an air source generating device 13, a regulating valve 14, a vacuum generator 15 and a negative pressure pressure gauge 16. The air source generating device 13, the regulating valve 14, the vacuum generator 15 and the air intake pipe 12 are connected in sequence through pipelines, and the negative pressure pressure gauge 16 is connected to the pipeline connecting the vacuum generator 15 and the air intake pipe 12.

[0029] During the test, the e-cigarette is first operated through the power supply module to simulate a real smoking scene. The air source generator then generates airflow in the pipeline, which passes through the vacuum generator to create negative pressure suction in the air intake pipe. The negative pressure gauge can measure the magnitude of the negative pressure generated and compare it with the pressure value generated by the vacuum generator. If the e-cigarette is leaking, the pressure value measured by the negative pressure gauge will be lower than the pressure generated by the vacuum generator; if the e-cigarette is airtight, the two pressure values ​​will not change. The negative pressure entering the e-cigarette can be adjusted by the regulating valve to simulate smoking with different suction forces.

[0030] The power supply module 2 includes a base plate 22 and a fixing base 23. The fixing base 23 is fixedly mounted on the base plate 22 and has a mounting slot for placing the electronic cigarette 3. The bottom surface of the test module 1 is provided with a retractable pre-compression rod 17. When the electronic cigarette 3 is placed in the mounting slot, the pre-compression rod 17 is located directly above the electronic cigarette 3 and in the middle of the electronic cigarette 3. The mounting slot on the fixing base facilitates accurate placement of the electronic cigarette in the testing position, and the pre-compression rod can support the electronic cigarette to prevent it from moving during testing.

[0031] The power supply module 2 also includes a telescopic cylinder 24, a slider 25, and a wedge block 26. The telescopic cylinder 24 is fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 11, the slider 25 is slidably disposed on the bottom plate 22, and the wedge block 26 is fixedly mounted on the slider 25. When the telescopic cylinder 24 is extended, the bottom surface of the telescopic cylinder 24 and the inclined surface of the wedge block 26 contact each other, causing the slider 25 to move toward the center. The power supply probe 21 is mounted on the slider 25. The telescopic cylinder can be used to move the slider toward the center, thereby driving the power supply probe toward the side closer to the electronic cigarette, thereby electrically connecting the power supply probe to the electronic cigarette. This eliminates the need for manual alignment and improves testing efficiency.

[0032] The bottom plate 22 is provided with a slide rail 27 , and the slider 25 can slide along the slide rail 27 , ensuring that the slider can only move in one direction.

[0033] The bottom of the telescopic cylinder 24 is connected with a roller 28, which can contact the inclined surface of the wedge block 26. The roller is in contact with the wedge block, and the roller can roll when squeezing the wedge block, thereby preventing the wedge block from being damaged.

[0034] The fixing seat 23 is provided with a plurality of mounting grooves arranged side by side in a front-to-back manner, and the mounting plate 11 is correspondingly provided with a plurality of air inlet pipes 12 , so that a plurality of electronic cigarettes can be tested at the same time, further improving the testing efficiency.

[0035] The electronic cigarette 3 is provided with a breathing light, and the mounting plate 11 is provided with a breathing light sensor 18. The breathing light sensor 18 is located directly above the breathing light and can measure the operating status of the breathing light.

[0036] The mounting plate 11 can be raised and lowered. When the mounting plate is raised, space can be made available to facilitate placement of the electronic cigarette in the mounting slot.

[0037] The above description of the disclosed embodiments is intended to enable one skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments shown herein but is intended to conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
