DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] The following is combined with Figure 1-3 This application is described in further detail.

[0037] The embodiment of the present application discloses an electronic cigarette loading funnel.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 , an electronic cigarette loading funnel and its mold, including a material guide 1, the material guide 1 includes a main shell 11 and a peripheral edge 12. The main shell 11 is an annular structure, and the direction in which the internal cavity of the main shell 11 passes through is defined as the feeding direction. The side wall of the main shell 11 gradually tilts from one side to the other side toward the inside of itself along the feeding direction, forming a tapered structure. The small end of the main shell 11 is defined as the discharge end 14, and the large end of the main shell 11 is defined as the feed end 13. The peripheral edge 12 is an annular structure, one end of the peripheral edge 12 is integrally formed and sleeved on the outer wall of the main shell 11, and is located near the discharge end 14, and the other end extends along the feeding direction to the side of the discharge end 14 away from the feed end 13. The feed port of the electronic cigarette cavity can be inserted into the peripheral edge 12. After the feed port of the electronic cigarette cavity is inserted into the surrounding edge 12, the outer wall can abut against the inner wall of the surrounding edge 12, thereby limiting the relative displacement between the electronic cigarette cavity and the funnel, reducing leakage, facilitating loading for staff, and improving staff efficiency.

[0039] Reference Figure 2 The main shell 11 is a rectangular structure as a whole, and its own length direction is perpendicular to the feeding direction. The material guide 1 also includes a baffle 15, which is integrally formed and arranged on the end surface of the small end of the main shell 11. A plurality of discharge ports 151 are evenly opened on the baffle 15 along the length direction of the main shell 11, so that the staff can load multiple electronic cigarette cavities at the same time. The distance between two adjacent discharge ports 151 matches the outer dimensions of the electronic cigarette cavity. After the multiple electronic cigarette cavities correspond to the discharge ports 151, the adjacent electronic cigarette cavities are in a state of abutting each other, so that the surrounding edge 12 can limit the multiple electronic cigarette cavities.

[0040] The number of discharge ports 151 is no more than eight, and in this embodiment, the number of discharge ports 151 is set to five. Five electronic cigarette cavities can be loaded at the same time through the funnel. At the same time, according to the size of the electronic cigarette cavity, the staff can normally grasp five electronic cigarette cavities. The shape and size of the discharge port 151 correspond to the electronic cigarette feed port, which facilitates the entry of raw materials into the electronic cigarette cavity. At the same time, the rear end of the electronic cigarette cavity insertion edge 12 abuts against the baffle 15, thereby further reducing the leakage of materials.

[0041] Reference Figure 2 The material guide 1 also includes an internal limiter 16, which is arranged on the side of the baffle 15 away from the feed end 13. The internal limiter 16 is a ring structure, and one end of the internal limiter 16 is integrally formed and arranged on the baffle 15. The internal limiter 16 can be inserted into the feed port of the electronic cigarette cavity. Thereby limiting the displacement of the electronic cigarette cavity, improving the stability during the loading process, and further reducing the leakage. A first guide surface 17 is arranged on the outer wall of the internal limiter 16, and the first guide surface 17 is inclined toward the inside of the internal limiter 16 from the side close to the feed end 13 to the end away from the feed end 13 along the feeding direction. Thereby, the internal limiter 16 can be guided to be inserted into the feed port of the electronic cigarette cavity, thereby improving the efficiency of loading.

[0042] Reference Figure 2 The main housing 11 is provided with a scoop body 2, which includes a handle 21 and a bucket part 22, and the handle 21 and the bucket part 22 are integrally formed. A plug-in connector 23 is provided on the outer wall of the bucket part 22, and the plug-in connector 23 is inserted into the discharge port 151 to achieve the connection between the scoop body 2 and the funnel. At the same time, when loading, the plug-in connector can be pulled out from the discharge port 151, which is convenient for the use of the scoop body 2.

[0043] Reference Figure 2 , the plug-in component 23 as a whole matches the shape of the feed port, and in this embodiment, the discharge port 151 is a square hole. The plug-in component 23 includes at least one group of plug-in boards 231 integrally formed with the spoon body 2, and each group of plug-in boards 231 includes two plug-in boards 231 arranged in parallel and spaced apart. After the plug-in boards 231 are plugged into the discharge port 151, the sides of the two plug-in boards 231 that are away from each other abut against the side walls of the discharge port 151, and the connection between the spoon body 2 and the material guide 1 is achieved under the action of friction. In this embodiment, the plug-in boards 231 are arranged in two groups, and the plug-in boards 231 in the two groups of plug-in boards 231 are perpendicular to each other and surrounded to form a square structure, and the adjacent plug-in boards 231 are spaced apart so that the plug-in boards 231 can produce a slight deformation, which facilitates the overall insertion of the plug-in component 23 into the discharge port 151 in an interference fit manner.

[0044] Reference Figure 2The inner side wall of the internal limit member 16 is flush with the side wall of the discharge port 151 and forms a second guide surface 18 . The second guide surface 18 is parallel to the first guide surface 17 , thereby facilitating the insertion of the connector 23 into the discharge port 151 .

[0045] Reference Figure 2 At least one of the two side walls of the plug-in board 231 in the same group is provided with a protrusion 232 to prevent the plug-in component 23 from being separated from the discharge port 151 after the plug-in component 23 is inserted into the discharge port 151, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the scoop body 2 and the funnel. In this embodiment, the two plug-in boards 231 in the same group are provided with protrusions 232 on the sides that are away from each other.

[0046] The implementation principle of the electronic cigarette charging funnel and its mold in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: one end of the electronic cigarette cavity close to its own feeding port is inserted into the inner sidewall of the surrounding edge 12 and abuts against the inner sidewall of the surrounding edge 12. At the same time, the internal limiter 16 is inserted into the feeding port of the electronic cigarette cavity. The surrounding edge 12 and the internal limiter 16 limit the electronic cigarette cavity from the outside and the inside respectively, thereby improving the stability between the funnel and the electronic cigarette cavity during the charging process and reducing the occurrence of leakage.

[0047] The present application also discloses an electronic cigarette charging funnel mold.

[0048] An electronic cigarette charging funnel mold includes an upper mold body 31 and a lower mold body 32. The upper mold body 31 is provided with a first convex mold 33 and a second convex mold 34, and the lower mold body 32 is correspondingly provided with a first concave mold 35 and a second concave mold 36. After the upper mold body 31 and the lower mold body 32 are matched, a first molding cavity is formed between the first convex mold 33 and the first concave mold 35, and the shape of the first molding cavity corresponds to the shape of the spoon body 2. A second molding cavity is formed between the second convex mold 34 and the second concave mold 36, and the shape of the second molding cavity matches the shape of the material guide 1.

[0049] The implementation principle of an electronic cigarette charging funnel and its mold in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: a first molding groove and a second molding groove are provided on the upper mold body 31 and the lower mold body 32 , so that the spoon body 2 and the material guide member 1 are formed synchronously.
