Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic cigarette technology, and more particularly to an aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, when users vape e-cigarettes, the aerosol generated by the atomizer flows through the airway to the mouthpiece. During this flow, some of the aerosol accumulates condensate in the airway. This condensate is inhaled by the user through the mouthpiece and also flows back to the e-liquid in the atomizer, resulting in a poor vaping experience and reducing the user's overall experience. Summary of the Invention

[0009] The inner diameter of the accommodating space gradually decreases in the direction from the first air inlet to the exhaust outlet.

[0010] Furthermore, the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette also includes a shell and a roller;

[0011] The housing has an opening, and the roller is rotatably mounted in the opening.

[0012] Furthermore, the base has a drainage section on the side near the receiving space. The drainage section is connected to the end of the first absorbent near the base, and the drainage section is used to guide the liquid absorbed by the first absorbent to the second absorbent.

[0013] Furthermore, the drainage section is a drainage platform protruding into the accommodating space, and the drainage platform has two ends communicating with the hollow channel near the base and the first air inlet, respectively; the end of the first water-absorbing element near the base is sleeved on the drainage platform; or,

[0014] The drainage section is a drainage groove formed in the base, and the end of the first water-absorbing member near the base is installed in the drainage groove.

[0015] Furthermore, in the direction of the base near the mouthpiece, the outer diameter of the drainage portion gradually decreases.

[0016] Furthermore, the base is provided with a spreading structure on the side near the receiving space. The spreading structure is used to expand the end of the first water-absorbing member near the base so that the end of the first water-absorbing member near the base is close to the second water-absorbing member.

When the user inhales, the aerosol passes through the first air inlet, the hollow channel and the exhaust hole in sequence for the user to inhale. Even if the aerosol adheres to the hollow channel, it will be absorbed by the first water-absorbing component to avoid the condensate formed by the aerosol adhering to the hollow channel, causing the condensate to be inhaled by the user along with the aerosol and to flow back to the atomizing component, thereby effectively improving the inhalation taste of the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette.

[0030] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments. The content mentioned in the embodiments is not intended to limit the present invention.

[0031] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides an aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette, including a mouthpiece assembly 100 and an atomizing assembly 200 that are interconnected; wherein, the atomizing assembly 200 is used to atomize e-liquid to form an aerosol, which is provided to the user for inhalation through the mouthpiece assembly 100.

[0032] In some embodiments, the mouthpiece assembly includes a mouthpiece 110, a base 120, and a first water-absorbing component 130; the mouthpiece 110 and the base 120 are connected to form an accommodating space 140; the mouthpiece 110 has an exhaust port 111, and the base 120 has a first air inlet port 121, which communicates with the atomizing component 200 so that the atomized aerosol formed by the atomizing component 200 can enter through the first air inlet port 121; the first water-absorbing component 130 is disposed in the accommodating space 140, and the first water-absorbing component 130 has a hollow channel 131, the two ends of which are respectively connected to the exhaust port 111 and the first air inlet port 121.

[0033] In this embodiment, the first water-absorbing component 130 is housed in the receiving space 140 formed by the mouthpiece 110 and the base 120. The hollow channel 131 in the first water-absorbing component 130 is connected to the exhaust port 111 on the mouthpiece 110 and the first air inlet port 121 on the base 120. When the user inhales, the aerosol passes through the first air inlet port 121, the hollow channel 131, and the exhaust port 111 in sequence for the user to inhale. Even if the aerosol adheres to the hollow channel 131, it will be absorbed by the first water-absorbing component 130 to prevent the condensate formed by the aerosol from adhering to the hollow channel 131. This would prevent the condensate from being inhaled by the user along with the aerosol and from flowing back to the atomizing component 200, thereby effectively improving the inhalation taste of the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette.

[0034] In some embodiments, the first absorbent element 130 is a component with water-absorbing function, such as absorbent cotton or absorbent felt, and is not specifically limited here.

[0035] In some embodiments, the mouthpiece assembly 100 further includes a second absorbent 150; the base 120 has an installation space 122 on the side near the receiving space 140, and the second absorbent 150 is installed in the installation space 122; the end of the first absorbent 130 near the base 120 is close to the second absorbent 150, so that the liquid absorbed by the first absorbent 130 flows to the second absorbent 150.

[0036] In this embodiment, when the first absorbent 130 absorbs condensate, the first absorbent 130 is in a wetted state. At this time, the second absorbent 150 absorbs the liquid precipitated from the wetted first absorbent 130. This avoids the problem that after the first absorbent 130 absorbs too much condensate, the condensate on the first absorbent 130 will precipitate, causing the condensate to be drawn onto the mouthpiece 110 with the aerosol and to flow and adhere to the base 120. This further improves the inhalation experience of the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette.

[0037] In some embodiments, the second absorbent component 150 is a component with water-absorbing properties, such as absorbent cotton or absorbent felt, and is not specifically limited here.

[0038] In some embodiments, the installation space 122 is an installation groove, and the second water-absorbing member 150 is installed in the installation groove, which makes the overall structure compact and facilitates miniaturization.

[0039] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the accommodating space 140 gradually decreases in the direction from the first air inlet 121 toward the exhaust outlet 111. This allows the second absorbent 150 to be exposed at one end of the accommodating space 140 near the base 120, reserving space for connection between the end of the first absorbent 130 near the base and the second absorbent 150.

[0040] In some embodiments, the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette further includes a housing 300 and a roller 500; the housing 300 has an opening 310, and the roller 500 is rotatably mounted in the opening 310. The roller 500 is used for user hand movements, promoting blood circulation in the user's hands, achieving the purpose of stress relief for the user, and enriching the functionality of the electronic cigarette.

[0041] In some embodiments, the base 120 is provided with a drainage portion 123 on the side near the receiving space 140. The drainage portion 123 is connected to the end of the first absorbent 130 near the base 120, and the drainage portion 123 is used to guide the liquid absorbed by the first absorbent 130 to the second absorbent 150.

[0042] In this embodiment, when the first absorbent 130 condenses, the condensate flows to the second absorbent 150 along with the guide section 123, thereby increasing the flow rate of the condensate on the first absorbent 130, ensuring the treatment effect of the condensate, and further improving the inhalation experience of the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette.

[0043] In some embodiments, the drainage portion 123 is a drainage platform protruding into the accommodating space 140, and the drainage platform has a second air inlet 1231 with both ends communicating with one end of the hollow channel 131 near the base 120 and the first air inlet 121.

[0044] In this embodiment, the end of the first water-absorbing component 130 near the base 120 is sleeved on the flow-guiding platform. This allows the flow-guiding platform to both fix one end of the first water-absorbing component 130 and, at the same time, utilize the flow-guiding surface on the flow-guiding platform to quickly guide the condensate precipitated by the first water-absorbing component 130 to the second water-absorbing component 150, thereby improving the inhalation experience of the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette.

[0045] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the second air inlet 1231 is smaller than the inner diameter of the hollow channel 131. In this way, when condensate is released from the first absorbent 130 or when condensate adhering to the first absorbent 130 flows, the flow of condensate into the second air inlet 1231 can be effectively reduced, thereby avoiding the phenomenon that the atomized aerosol has a poor taste due to condensate entering the atomizing component 200.

[0046] In other embodiments, the drainage portion 123 is a drainage groove (not shown) formed in the base 120, and the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120 is installed in the drainage groove (not shown).

[0047] In this embodiment, the aforementioned drainage channel (not shown) is annular and surrounds the first air inlet 121, so that the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120 is spaced apart from the first air inlet 121 to prevent the condensate on the first water-absorbing member 130 from flowing into the first air inlet 121; and the drainage channel (not shown) is located in the installation space 122 so that the first water-absorbing member 130 and the second water-absorbing member 150 are connected, thereby realizing that the condensate on the first water-absorbing member 130 flows to the second water-absorbing member 150.

[0048] In some embodiments, the outer diameter of the drain portion 123 gradually decreases in the direction of the base 120 near the mouthpiece 110; thus, the outer surface of the drain portion 123 forms a guide surface of the first absorbent 130 near the second absorbent 150, so as to guide the condensate on the first absorbent 130 to the second absorbent 150.

[0049] In some embodiments, the base 120 is further provided with a spreading structure on the side near the receiving space 140. The spreading structure is used to expand the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120 so that the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120 is close to the second water-absorbing member 150.

[0050] In this embodiment, the aforementioned spreading structure is used to expand the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120, so that there is a gap between the inner surface of the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120 and the outer surface of the drainage part 123. This allows the condensate on the first water-absorbing member 130 to flow between the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120 and the drainage part 123, so that the condensate can be guided to the second water-absorbing member 150, thereby preventing the condensate on the first water-absorbing member 130 from flowing back to the atomizing assembly 200 from the first air inlet 121. At the same time, it also makes the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120 closer to the second water-absorbing member 150, so that the condensate on the first water-absorbing member 130 can be guided to the second water-absorbing member 150.

[0051] In some embodiments, the spreading structure includes at least two spaced spreading portions 124, which are mounted on the side of the draining portion 123 near the first absorbent member 130.

[0052] In this embodiment, the aforementioned supporting portions 124 are arrayed and installed on the side of the drainage portion 123 near the first water-absorbing member 130. Two adjacent supporting portions 124 are spaced apart to form a flow channel for the condensate to be guided by the drainage portion 123. After the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120 is installed on the drainage portion 123, the inner surface of the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120 abuts against each supporting portion 124, making the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120 funnel-shaped, thereby increasing the hollow channel on the end of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120. The horizontal distance between the inner wall surface of 131 and the inner wall surface of the first air inlet 121 effectively prevents the condensate on the first water-absorbing component 130 from flowing back from the first air inlet 121 to the atomizing component 200. At the same time, the condensate on the first water-absorbing component 130 is guided by the flow channel, thereby improving the flow efficiency of the condensate. This prevents the condensate from being carried away by the aerosol to the mouthpiece 110 and inhaled by the user or flowing back to the first air inlet 121 due to excessive absorption of condensate by the first water-absorbing component 130, thus ensuring the user's inhalation experience of the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette.

[0053] In some embodiments, the aforementioned expansion portion 124 extends from one end of the drainage portion 123 to the other end; thus, each position on the inner surface of the first water-absorbing member 130 near the base 120 can be expanded by the expansion portion 124, further effectively preventing condensate from flowing back from the first air inlet 121 to the atomizing assembly 200.

[0054] In some embodiments, the mouthpiece 110 is made of a first absorbent material.

[0055] In this embodiment, the first absorbent material can be activated carbon, polylactic acid, etc., and is not limited thereto; the mouthpiece 110 made of the first absorbent material has the property of absorbing water, and is used to absorb liquids (such as saliva, condensate, etc.) on the user's mouth, so as to avoid aerosol mixing with the liquid on the mouthpiece 110, thereby further improving the inhalation taste of the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette.

[0056] Preferably, the first absorbent material is activated carbon, which has good absorbent properties and is harmless to the human body, thus ensuring the user's safety when inhaling it.

[0057] In other embodiments, the mouthpiece 110 is provided with a first water-absorbing coating at the mouthpiece end.

[0058] In this embodiment, the first water-absorbing coating can be made of at least one of activated carbon material and polylactic acid material, thus achieving the same effect as described above where "the mouthpiece 110 is made of the first water-absorbing material".

[0059] In some embodiments, the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette further includes the mouthpiece 110 as described above.

[0060] In this embodiment, the first water-absorbing component 130 is housed in the receiving space 140 formed by the mouthpiece 110 and the base 120. The hollow channel 131 in the first water-absorbing component 130 is connected to the exhaust port 111 on the mouthpiece 110 and the first air inlet port 121 on the base 120. When the user inhales, the aerosol passes through the first air inlet port 121, the hollow channel 131, and the exhaust port 111 in sequence for the user to inhale. Even if the aerosol adheres to the hollow channel 131, it will be absorbed by the first water-absorbing component 130 to prevent the condensate formed by the aerosol from adhering to the hollow channel 131. This would prevent the condensate from being inhaled by the user along with the aerosol and from flowing back to the atomizing component 200, thereby effectively improving the inhalation taste of the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette.

[0061] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette further includes an atomizing component 200, which is connected to a first air inlet 121 so that the aerosol formed after atomization by the atomizing component 200 flows into the first air inlet 121 and sequentially passes through the hollow channel 131 and the exhaust port 111 for the user to inhale.

[0062] In some embodiments, the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette further includes a mouthpiece housing 160, which is fitted onto the mouthpiece 110 to protect the mouthpiece assembly 100. At the same time, the mouthpiece housing 200 has a suction port 161 communicating with the exhaust port 111, so that the user can suck the aerosol flowing out of the exhaust port 111 through the suction port 161.

[0063] In some embodiments, the mouthpiece housing 160 is made of a second absorbent material.

[0064] In this embodiment, the second absorbent material can be activated carbon, polylactic acid, etc., and is not limited thereto. The mouthpiece 110 made of the second absorbent material has the property of absorbing water. It is used by the mouthpiece shell 160 to absorb liquids (such as saliva, condensate, etc.) on the user's mouth, so as to avoid aerosol mixing with the liquid on the mouthpiece shell 160, thereby further improving the inhalation taste of the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette.

[0065] Preferably, the second absorbent material is activated carbon, which has good absorbent properties and is harmless to the human body, thus ensuring the user's safety when inhaling it.

[0066] In other embodiments, the mouthpiece housing 160 is provided with a second water-absorbing coating at the mouthpiece end. In this embodiment, the second water-absorbing coating may be made of at least one of activated carbon and polylactic acid, thus achieving the same effect as described above where "the mouthpiece housing 160 is made of a second water-absorbing material".

[0067] In some embodiments, the aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette further includes a housing 300, which is connected to and encloses the mouthpiece housing 160 to form a sealed cavity for accommodating the mouthpiece assembly 100 and the atomizing assembly 200.

[0068] In some embodiments, the housing 300 is integrally formed with the mouthpiece housing 160, resulting in high structural strength and effectively improving the protection performance of the mouthpiece assembly 100 and the atomizing assembly 200.

[0069] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned aerosol self-generating electronic cigarette further includes a battery assembly 400 disposed in a sealed cavity, the battery assembly 400 being electrically connected to the atomizing assembly 200 for supplying power to the atomizing assembly 200.
