Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electronic cigarettes, and in particular to a method for preventing the mouthpiece of an electronic cigarette from sticking to the lips. Background Art

[0002] Electronic cigarettes are not only a functional consumer product but also a fashionable consumer product. Many consumers hold an electronic cigarette in their mouths for a long time. Especially when playing games while holding an electronic cigarette, after a long time, the moisture on the surface of the lips evaporates, and the lips stick to the mouthpiece of the electronic cigarette. In the lightest case, it is difficult to open the mouth, and in the severest case, a small piece of lip skin is torn off, causing a wound, which brings a very poor use experience to consumers of electronic cigarettes. Therefore, improvement is needed. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention attempts to overcome the above defects. Therefore, the present invention provides a method for preventing the mouthpiece of an electronic cigarette from sticking to the lips, so as to avoid the problem that the mouthpiece of the electronic cigarette sticks to the lips and causes lip damage.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions: A mouthpiece sleeve is provided at the part of the mouthpiece of the electronic cigarette that contacts the lips. Diamond particles are embedded on the outer surface of the mouthpiece sleeve. The method of embedding diamond particles into the mouthpiece sleeve is as follows: First step, the diamond particles fall onto the conveyor belt running from the hopper. Second step, there is an eccentric wheel below the conveyor belt, and the eccentric wheel pushes the conveyor belt to vibrate up and down. Third step, the heated and softened mouthpiece sleeve is put on the rotating shaft. Fourth step, under the positive pressure of the rotating shaft, the softened mouthpiece sleeve is pressed against the conveyor belt. With the cooperation of the supporting wheel, the diamond particles on the conveyor belt are embedded into the mouthpiece sleeve. Fifth step, after the mouthpiece sleeve rotates one circle, the rotating shaft is lifted and the mouthpiece sleeve is taken off. Sixth step, the mouthpiece sleeve is put on the core of the pressing die. The slider of the pressing die presses and embeds the diamond particles on the surface of the mouthpiece sleeve. A heating resistance wire is built into the slider, and the resistance wire heats the slider to keep the mouthpiece sleeve softened, so that the diamond particles are stably embedded under the positive pressure of the slider. Seventh step, the slider is released and the mouthpiece sleeve is taken out. Eighth step, the mouthpiece sleeve is put on the mouthpiece part of the electronic cigarette.

[0005] Further, the embedded diamond particles cover 50%-90% of the outer surface area of the mouthpiece sleeve.

[0006] Further, the material of the mouthpiece sleeve is a transparent polymer material.

[0007] Further, the particle size of the diamond particles is 12-25 mesh.

[0008] Further, the mouthpiece sleeve is in a round tube shape.

[0009] Further, the material of the mouthpiece sleeve is plexiglass.

[0010] Furthermore, the cross-section of the eccentric wheel is circular, the deviation value between the rotation center of the eccentric wheel and the center of the cross-section is 0.3 - 1.0 mm, and the rotation speed of the eccentric wheel is 10 - 50 revolutions per second.

[0011] Furthermore, the height difference from the hopper outlet to the surface of the conveyor belt is 1.2 - 1.5 times the size of the placed diamond particles.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The surface of a person's lips is an aqueous environment, while the surface of a diamond is smooth and has hydrophobic properties. Functionally, diamond particles are embedded on the outer surface of the mouthpiece, so that the mouthpiece and the lips will not stick together when they come into contact, avoiding lip damage caused by adhesion; commercially, diamond particles are embedded on the transparent outer surface of the mouthpiece. The size of the diamond particles is 12 - 25 mesh, about 0.7 - 1.7 mm, which is visible to the naked eye, and thus becomes a topic for users to show off to their companions. In some special light occasions, such as KTVs and bars, the diamonds can refract light to form cool flashes, which is very in line with the characteristics of e-cigarettes as fashionable consumer goods and has considerable commercial value. The mouthpiece can be inserted into and removed from the cigarette holder, which is convenient for consumers to switch between different styles of e-cigarettes. As the industrial production cost of diamonds decreases, the size of diamond particles will become larger and larger, providing a cost advantage for the large-scale commercial application of the present invention.

[0015] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0016] The present invention provides a method for preventing the mouthpiece of an electronic cigarette from adhering to the lips, as Figures 1-4 shown.

[0017] A mouthpiece sleeve 1 is provided at the part of the mouthpiece 2 of the electronic cigarette that contacts the lips. Diamond particles 3 are embedded in the outer surface of the mouthpiece sleeve 1. The method of embedding the diamond particles 3 into the mouthpiece sleeve 1 is as follows: First step, the diamond particles 3 fall from the hopper 5 onto the conveying belt 4 in operation. Second step, there is an eccentric wheel 6 below the conveying belt 4, and the eccentric wheel 6 pushes the conveying belt 4 to vibrate up and down. Third step, the heated and softened mouthpiece sleeve 1 is put on the rotating shaft 7. Fourth step, under the positive pressure of the rotating shaft 7, the softened mouthpiece sleeve 1 is pressed against the conveying belt 4. With the cooperation of the supporting wheel 8, the diamond particles 3 on the conveying belt 4 are embedded into the mouthpiece sleeve 1. Fifth step, after the mouthpiece sleeve 1 rotates one circle, the rotating shaft 7 is lifted and the mouthpiece sleeve 1 is removed. Sixth step, the mouthpiece sleeve 1 is put into the die core 10 of the pressing die. The slider 9 of the pressing die presses and embeds the diamond particles 3 on the surface of the mouthpiece sleeve 1. A heating resistance wire is built into the slider 9, and the resistance wire heats the slider 9 to keep the mouthpiece sleeve 1 softened, so that the diamond particles 3 are stably embedded under the positive pressure of the slider 9. Seventh step, the slider 9 is loosened and the mouthpiece sleeve 1 is taken out. Eighth step, the mouthpiece sleeve 1 is put on the mouthpiece 2 part of the electronic cigarette. The embedded diamond particles 3 cover 50%-90% of the outer surface area of the mouthpiece sleeve 1. The material of the mouthpiece sleeve 1 is a transparent polymer material. The particle size of the diamond particles 3 is 12-25 mesh. The mouthpiece sleeve 1 is in a circular tube shape. The material of the mouthpiece sleeve 1 is plexiglass. The cross-section of the eccentric wheel 6 is circular, and the deviation value between the rotation center of the eccentric wheel 6 and the center of the cross-section circle is 0.3-1.0 mm, and the rotation speed of the eccentric wheel 6 is 10-50 revolutions per second. The height difference between the hopper outlet and the surface of the conveying belt is 1.2-1.5 times the size of the placed diamond particles.

[0018] Embodiment First, spend 450 yuan to buy 200 grams of diamond particles with a particle size of 20-25 mesh. The diamond particles 3 fall from the hopper 5 onto the conveying belt 4 in operation. The height difference between the hopper 5 outlet and the surface of the conveying belt 4 is 1.2 mm, so as to ensure that the diamond particles 3 leak out and spread flat on the conveying belt 4. There is an eccentric wheel 6 below the conveying belt 4, and the eccentric wheel 6 pushes the conveying belt 4 to vibrate up and down. The cross-section of the eccentric wheel 6 is circular, and the deviation value between the rotation center of the eccentric wheel 6 and the center of the cross-section circle is 0.5 mm, and the rotation speed of the eccentric wheel 6 is 20 revolutions per second. The up-and-down vibration of the conveying belt 4 makes the diamond particles fully dispersed, preventing stacking, and at the same time making the largest surface of the diamond particles face down, improving the area occupation ratio efficiency after embedding. Figure 2The relative positional relationship among the hopper 5, the conveyor belt 4, and the eccentric wheel 6 is shown. Actually, through the jitter effect of the eccentric wheel 6, the diamond particles 3 are densely laid flat on the surface of the conveyor belt 4. A section of plexiglass tube is intercepted as the blank part of the nozzle 1. The sharp edges of the blank part are removed by cutting and polishing, and then it is put into an oven at 90 degrees Celsius for baking and softening. As Figure 3 shown, the softened nozzle 1 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 7. Under the positive pressure of the rotating shaft 7, the softened nozzle 1 is pressed against the conveyor belt 4. With the cooperation of the supporting wheel 8, the diamond particles 3 on the conveyor belt 4 are embedded into the nozzle 1. After the nozzle 1 rotates one circle, the rotating shaft 7 is lifted, and the nozzle 1 is removed. Figure 3 In [Figure], the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 4 is from left to right. The nozzle 1 together with the rotating shaft 7 rotates counterclockwise, and the supporting wheel 8 rotates clockwise. As Figure 4 shown, then the nozzle 1 is sleeved on the core 10 of the pressing die. The left and right sliders 9 of the pressing die press and embed the diamond particles 3 on the surface of the nozzle 1. The sliders 9 are internally provided with heating resistance wires. The resistance wires heat the sliders 9 to 90 degrees Celsius to keep the nozzle 1 softened for 100 minutes, so that the diamond particles 3 are stably embedded under the positive pressure of the sliders 9. The sliders 9 are loosened, and the nozzle 1 is taken out. The nozzle 1 is sleeved on the mouthpiece 2 part of the electronic cigarette. As Figure 1 shown. The test results show that even if the tester holds the mouthpiece of the electronic cigarette of the present invention for more than 2 hours, there will still be no adhesion, and the taste is smooth. The electronic cigarette is inlaid with diamonds, which makes people like to play with it and is full of a sense of fashion.

[0019] Embedding principle: The conveyor belt 4 is flexible, which can prevent the stacking and embedding of diamond particles 3, so that the rotation angle control of the nozzle 1 on the conveyor belt 4 does not need to be particularly strict. The pressing die uses the stiffness and pressure of the sliders 9 and the core 10, and cooperates with heating and time to increase the embedding strength and make the surface flat.

[0020] Cost analysis: When the outer diameter of the nozzle 1 is 10 mm and the length is 20 mm, the cost of embedding 20 - 25 - mesh diamond particles into the nozzle 1 is within 40 yuan, and the cost of embedding 12 - 14 - mesh diamond particles into the nozzle 1 is within 210 yuan. Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
