[0031] The multi-cartridge electronic cigarette used by circuit switching of the present invention includes a plurality of cartridges, wherein the multi-cartridge or the plurality of cartridges refers to two or more cartridges. In the following embodiment, the present invention is described with four cartridges.

[0032] Example:

[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the multi-cartridge electronic cigarette used by circuit switching in this embodiment includes an atomization assembly and a battery assembly connected to each other, wherein:

[0034] The atomizer assembly includes a cylindrical cigarette cartridge magazine 1, four cigarette cartridges 2, a cigarette cartridge magazine cover 3 and a suction nozzle 4. The interior of the cigarette cartridge magazine 1 is provided with four cigarette cartridge cavities 12 distributed in a ring shape along the central axis, and a cigarette cartridge 2 is axially inserted in each cigarette cartridge cavity 12. The cigarette cartridge magazine cover 3 is detachably connected to the upper end 13 of the cigarette cartridge magazine 1, and the suction nozzle 4 is fixedly connected to the cigarette cartridge magazine cover 3. In this way, the cigarette cartridge magazine cover 3 is removed or installed at the same time.

[0035] The battery assembly includes a battery tube 5, a battery tube bottom cover 6, a battery bracket 7, a circuit control board 8 and a battery 9 arranged in the battery bracket 7. The battery tube bottom cover 6 is connected to the bottom of the battery tube 5, the bottom end 14 of the cigarette cartridge compartment 1 is connected to the upper end of the battery bracket 7, the cigarette cartridge compartment 1 and the battery bracket 7 are both arranged in the battery tube 5, and a switching switch 81 is provided on the circuit control board 8. The cigarette cartridge electrodes 22 of each cigarette cartridge are electrically connected to the positive and negative electrodes of the battery 9 through the switching switch 81. By operating the switching switch 81, the power supply lines of each cigarette cartridge can be connected in turn. For example, when the switching switch 81 is operated to connect the power supply line of a certain cigarette cartridge 2, the power supply lines of other cigarette cartridges are disconnected. When the electronic cigarette is in the smoking action, the battery 5 supplies power to the cigarette cartridge, and the cigarette cartridge performs atomization to generate smoke, while other cigarette cartridges do not work. The switch 81 is arranged on the circuit control board 8. The switch 81 of this embodiment is a push-button switch. In other embodiments, the switch 81 can also be an electronic switch. The electronic switch can be automatically operated. For example, an electronic switch is arranged in the electronic cigarette. The electronic switch can automatically judge, select and switch the circuit through a microcontroller or a smart chip. The electronic cigarette can be connected to the mobile phone APP for communication. By operating the mobile phone APP, the electronic cigarette can be indirectly controlled to switch the circuit. In this embodiment, a button 61 and a display screen 62 are also arranged on the bottom cover 6 of the battery tube. The button 61 is used to press the corresponding switch 81 arranged inside it. The switch 81 in this embodiment is different from an ordinary circuit switch. An ordinary circuit switch is used to connect and disconnect the power supply in the circuit, while the switch 81 is used to switch the circuits of different cartridges. When switching to the circuit of one of the cartridges, it does not mean that the power supply is connected or powered on.

[0036] The multi-cartridge electronic cigarette of the utility model is provided with a circuit switching switch 81. By operating the switching switch, the power supply lines of each cartridge can be connected in turn. When the switching switch connects the power supply line of one cartridge, the power supply lines of other cartridges are disconnected. The electronic cigarette reduces mechanical accessories, making the structure simple and reducing production costs. At the same time, it is easy to operate when in use. When the user needs to change the flavor of different cartridges, there is no need to switch different cartridges through mechanical switching, which also avoids gas path and circuit failures caused by mechanical actions, thereby increasing the service life of the electronic cigarette.

[0037] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a plurality of electrode posts 71 electrically connected to the switch 81 are disposed at the upper end of the battery holder 7 , and the upper ends of the electrode posts 71 are in contact with the cartridge electrodes 22 of the cartridge.

[0038] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the bottom end 14 of the cigarette cartridge compartment 1 is connected to the upper end of the battery bracket 7, and a silicone seat 16 is provided between the cigarette cartridge compartment 1 and the battery bracket 7, and the silicone seat 16 plays a sealing and buffering role.

[0039] like Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, a central tube 10 is provided inside the cartridge chamber 1, and four first partitions 11 are radially provided between the outer wall of the central tube 10 and the inner wall of the cartridge chamber 1.

The cartridge 2 includes a shell 20, and a liquid storage chamber 24 and an atomization channel 25 are provided in the shell 20. The atomization channel 25 is provided with an atomization core 26. When a user smokes from the suction port 41, one of the cartridges works, and the outside air enters the atomization channel from the air inlet 21. At this time, its atomization core 26 is powered on and works, and the generated electronic cigarette smoke is discharged from the mist outlet 23 to the suction port 41.

[0041] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Fig. 9 , Fig.10 As shown, the cigarette cartridge chamber cover 3 is arranged on the upper end 13 of the cigarette cartridge chamber 1, and is provided with a cylindrical body 31. The bottom of the cylindrical body 31 is provided with a column 32 abutting against the upper end of the central tube 10, and the outer wall of the column 32 is radially provided with four second partitions 33 corresponding to the four first partitions 11. The bottom of the cylindrical body 31 is located between two adjacent second partitions 33 and is provided with a first through hole 34.

[0042] In addition, a first ferromagnet 35 is embedded in the column 32, and a second ferromagnet 15 that attracts the first ferromagnet 35 is embedded in the upper end of the central tube 10. When the cartridge compartment cover 3 is placed on the upper end 13 of the cartridge compartment 1, the column 32 abuts against the central tube 10, and the first ferromagnet 35 and the second ferromagnet 15 are strongly attracted to each other, so that the cartridge compartment cover 3 is connected and fixed to the cartridge compartment 1.

[0043] The outer wall of the cylindrical body 31 is tightly sleeved on the upper inner wall of the suction nozzle 4, and the lower inner wall of the suction nozzle 4 is sleeved on the upper end 13 wall of the cigarette cartridge compartment 1.

[0044] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 10-12 As shown, the inner wall of the cylindrical body 31 is provided with a sealing seat 36, the bottom of the sealing seat 36 abuts against the inner bottom of the cylindrical body 31, the sealing seat 36 is provided with a vertical second through hole 361 at the position corresponding to the first through hole 34, the bottom of the second through hole 361 is provided with a convex ring 362 extending downward, the convex ring 362 abuts against the periphery of the mist outlet 23 of the cigarette cartridge 2, the upper part of the sealing seat 36 abuts against the inner bottom of the suction nozzle 4, and the upper center of the sealing seat 36 is provided with an air suction groove 363, and the air suction groove 363 connects the second through hole 361 and the suction port 41 of the suction nozzle 4. The sealing seat 36 can seal the gap between the suction nozzle 4 and the cigarette cartridge 2, so that the suction force generated by the user at the suction port 41 can completely reach the mist outlet 23 of the cigarette cartridge, avoid suction loss, and easily suck out smoke. The sealing seat 36 can be made of silicone material.

[0045] In this embodiment, an absorbent liquid 47 is further provided in the air inhalation groove 363 of the sealing seat 36. The absorbent liquid 47 can absorb small droplets condensed and dripped on the wall of the smoke outlet 41 when the smoke flows out of the smoke outlet 41, so as to prevent the small droplets from being sucked into the mouth, so as to improve the user's inhalation taste. The absorbent liquid 47 can be made of cotton material.

[0046] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and the above specific embodiment is not a limitation of the utility model. Various deformations and modifications may occur within the technical concept of the utility model, and any modification, modification or equivalent replacement made by ordinary technicians in this field based on the above description belongs to the scope of protection of the utility model.
