For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown in FIG. 1 , the electronic cigarette of the present invention includes a bottom ring light 100. Figures 4 to 7 , which is a schematic diagram of the bottom ring light 100 .

[0040] like Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the bottom ring light 100 includes a light guide 10 and a main board 20 disposed on the light guide 10; lamp beads 21 are installed on the main board 20, and a lamp slot 11 is disposed on the light guide 10, and the lamp beads 21 are embedded in the lamp slot 11 one by one; when the main board 20 drives the lamp beads 21 to emit light, the light emitted by the lamp beads 21 passes through the light guide 10 and is transmitted from the outer wall of the electronic cigarette. A display screen 30 is disposed on the main board 20, and the display screen 30 is electrically connected to the main board 20, and the display screen 30 is used to display the working status information of the electronic cigarette.

[0041] When applying specific Figure 3As shown, the bottom ring light 100 is assembled at the bottom of the inner side of the electronic cigarette. When the user inhales the electronic cigarette, the mainboard 20 drives the lamp beads 21 to emit light according to the working status of the electronic cigarette, and the light of the lamp beads 21 passes through the light guide 10 and penetrates from the outer wall of the electronic cigarette, wherein the lamp beads 21 adopt RGB lamp beads 21, which can display a variety of fantasy colors and enrich the display effect; at the same time, the mainboard 20 drives the display screen 30 to display the relevant working information of the electronic cigarette according to the working status of the electronic cigarette. The user understands the working status of the electronic cigarette according to the different colors of the light guide 10 and the display content of the display screen 30; the light guide 10 and the display screen 30 can be used to display the following states: user suction status, user suction completion status, power shortage status, charging status, full power status, short circuit status, over-suction protection status; it is convenient for users to intuitively understand the working status of the electronic cigarette and improve the user experience.

[0042] Specifically, the light guide 10 is made of a material with light-guiding properties, preferably silicone in this embodiment, and the light emitted by the lamp bead 21 can be scattered outwards and then pass through the outer wall of the electronic cigarette. In addition, in this embodiment, the light guide 10 adopts a disc-shaped structure, which, on the one hand, matches the columnar structure of the electronic cigarette and is more tightly connected, and on the other hand, the light emitted by the lamp bead 21 can be evenly scattered at all angles around, optimizing the light display effect of the light guide 10.

[0043] Specifically, the lamp troughs 11 are distributed in a circular array on the side of the light guide 10 facing the main board 20, so that the lamp beads 21 are evenly distributed on the upper end surface of the light guide 10 to ensure uniform light emission. In addition, in the present embodiment, for the rectangular lamp beads 21, the cross-sectional shape of the lamp trough 11 is rectangular to match the lamp beads 21; the lamp trough 11 cooperates with the lamp beads 21 to play a limiting role to prevent the lamp beads 21 from shaking during use. In some other embodiments, the lamp beads 21 may be columnar, and the cross-sectional shape of the lamp trough 11 is adjusted to a circular shape accordingly. Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the number of lamp troughs 11 and lamp beads 21 is 4, which can ensure multi-angle light diffusion on the one hand, and maintain the distance between adjacent lamp beads 21 on the other hand to avoid heat accumulation.

[0044] Specifically, the display screen 30 is vertically arranged at the edge of the upper end surface of the main board 20, and the display screen 30 has a display surface 31, which is arranged at an outward end of the display screen 30 to output the working information of the electronic cigarette to the outside. Figure 8 As shown, the display content of the display surface 31 is specifically divided into a power area 31a and a fuel area 31b, which are used to display power information and fuel amount information respectively.

[0045] Specifically, the center of the main board 20 is provided with an electrical connection interface 22 protruding downward, and the center of the light guide 10 is provided with a through hole 12; the electrical connection interface 22 is inserted into the through hole 12, and the electrical connection interface 22 is electrically connected to the main board 20 for charging the battery inside the electronic cigarette. Furthermore, a connection sleeve 13 is provided at the lower end of the through hole 12, and the connection sleeve 13 is sleeved on the outer side of the electrical connection interface 22 to improve the connection stability.

[0046] Specifically, a connecting portion 14 is provided at the lower end of the light guide 10, and a connecting thread is provided on the outer wall of the connecting portion 14, and the light guide 10 is connected to the inside of the electronic cigarette by screw connection. Furthermore, the connecting portion 14 is annular, and a positioning hole is opened on the connecting portion 14, and the positioning of the light guide 10 is achieved through the positioning hole, thereby improving the assembly accuracy.

[0047] In this embodiment, a mounting seat 15 is provided on the upper end surface of the light guide 10, and the mounting seat 15 is used to accommodate an airflow sensor 40, and the airflow sensor 40 is used to receive the user's inhalation signal, so as to control the opening and closing of the electronic cigarette. A gap 23 is provided on the main board 20, and the gap 23 is arranged corresponding to the mounting seat 15 to avoid interference between the main board 20 and the mounting seat 15, and at the same time play a positioning role.

[0048] Please refer again Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the electronic cigarette includes the bottom ring light 100 mentioned above, and also includes a light-transmitting cover 200, a shell 300, and a base 400.

Figure 1 As shown, the light emitted by the lamp bead 21 passes through the light guide 10 and finally passes through the first light-transmitting part 220 along the direction A, and then displays a ring-shaped aperture on the outer wall of the electronic cigarette, and reminds the user of the working status of the electronic cigarette at this time by displaying different colors. The second light-transmitting part 230 is rectangular, and the second light-transmitting part 230 is arranged on the outer wall of the connecting tube 210 and connected to the upper end of the first light-transmitting part 220. The display screen 30 is correspondingly arranged on the inner side of the second light-transmitting part 230, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the display surface 31 of the display screen 30 is arranged toward the second light-transmitting portion 230 , and the display content of the display surface 31 can be displayed on the outer wall of the electronic cigarette through the second light-transmitting portion 230 , so that the user can understand the working information of the electronic cigarette.

[0050] Since the first light-transmitting portion 220 and the second light-transmitting portion 230 are arranged on the outer wall of the connecting tube 210, a slot 240 is formed on the outer wall of the connecting tube 210. When the electronic cigarette is assembled, the shell 300 is assembled on the outer side of the connecting tube 210 and matched with the slot 240, and the lower end of the shell 300 abuts against the first light-transmitting portion 220 and the second light-transmitting portion 230. The base 400 is arranged at the lower end of the first light-transmitting portion 220.

[0051] Specifically, in order to avoid the second light-transmitting portion 230 , a connecting notch 310 is provided on the outer wall of the housing 300 , and the connecting notch 310 is engaged with the outer edge of the second light-transmitting portion 230 .
