[0002] Disposable e-cigarettes are an emerging product type in the e-cigarette industry in recent years. Disposable e-cigarettes usually adopt a lightweight and compact design, with built-in batteries and heating elements, and pre-loaded with e-liquid, making them convenient for users to carry and use. They are suitable for users who are new to e-cigarettes or only use them occasionally, and are also suitable for users who need to use them during travel, outdoor activities or specific occasions.

[0003] Disposable electronic cigarettes are usually assembled from batteries, control components, heating components, electronic liquids and shells. During the assembly process, the control components and the shell need to be connected. The commonly used method is to set a mutually matching buckle structure between the control component and the shell, and connect them by pressing. However, if the buckle structure is not aligned in place when pressing, blindly pressing hard may result in poor overall assembly effect, causing the parts to loosen or even break when the user uses it.
