[0063] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present application. The terms used herein in the specification of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present application. The term "or / and" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more related listed items.
[0064] Some embodiments of the present application are described in detail. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features of the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0065] See also Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment of the present application, a multi-cartridge electronic cigarette 100 is provided. The multi-cartridge electronic cigarette 100 has a central axis O along a length direction X, and the multi-cartridge electronic cigarette 100 further includes a mouthpiece 10 , an electronic cigarette body 20 , and a sealing member 30 .
[0066] The mouthpiece 10 includes an air inlet 10a on the central axis O, and the electronic cigarette body 20 is installed on a side of the mouthpiece 10 away from the air inlet 10a. The electronic cigarette body 20 includes a plurality of cigarette bombs 40 distributed around the central axis O, and each cigarette bomb 40 includes a smoke channel 41.
[0067] The sealing member 30 is located at one end of the electronic cigarette body 20 where the suction nozzle 10 is provided and is covered by the suction nozzle 10. The sealing member 30 includes a plurality of air passages 31 distributed around the central axis O, and each air passage 31 connects the air inlet 10a with a flue 41 of a cigarette bomb body 40. Each air passage 31 includes a first opening 311 and a second opening 313 spaced apart in the direction of the central axis O, the first opening 311 is located between the second opening 313 and the air inlet 10a, and the first opening 311 is closer to the central axis O than the second opening 313, that is, along the length direction X, the projection of the first opening 311 is at least partially located on the side of the projection of the second opening 313 close to the central axis O.
[0068] The above-mentioned multi-cartridge electronic cigarette 100, firstly, independently sets an airway 31 corresponding to the smoke channel 41 of each cartridge body 40 to connect the air inlet 10a, thereby avoiding the need to rotate the mouthpiece 10 twice when switching the cartridge body 40, making the operation more convenient, and also helping to avoid affecting the use of other cartridge bodies 40 when one airway 31 is blocked. Secondly, since the first opening 311 of each airway 31 is closer to the central axis O than the second opening 313, the air inlet 10a can be located on the central axis O when multiple cartridge bodies 40 are distributed around the central axis O, so that the center of gravity of the multi-cartridge electronic cigarette 100 is less likely to be offset, and at the same time, it is beneficial to improve the appearance of the multi-cartridge electronic cigarette 100, and further to improve the user experience of the user group.
[0069] In some embodiments, along the length direction X, the center of the projection of the first opening 311 may be located on the side of the center of the projection of the second opening 313 close to the central axis O, so as to facilitate production. For example, the first opening 311 and the second opening 313 may both be circular and have the same size, but the center of the first opening 311 is closer to the central axis O than the center of the second opening 313. The above examples are only examples, and in some embodiments, the shape of the first opening 311 and the shape and size of the second opening 313 are not limited.
[0070] In some embodiments, the center of the projection of the first opening 311 and the center of the projection of the second opening 313 may coincide with each other along the length direction X. For example, the first opening 311 and the second opening 313 may both be circular, and the center of the first opening 311 and the center of the second opening 313 are coaxially arranged, and in this case, the size of the first opening 311 is larger than the size of the second opening 313. The above examples are only examples, and in some embodiments, the shape of the first opening 311 and the shape and size of the second opening 313 are not limited.
[0071] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the inner wall of the suction nozzle 10 may also be provided with a plurality of mounting posts 11 protruding toward the electronic cigarette body 20. The sealing member 30 includes a first surface 33 facing away from the electronic cigarette body 20 and a second surface 35 facing away from the air inlet 10a. The first surface 33 may be provided with a plurality of mounting grooves 330 accordingly, and each mounting groove 330 is recessed from the first surface 33 to the second surface 35. Each mounting post 11 is embedded in a mounting groove 330, which is conducive to improving the firmness and tightness of the connection between the suction nozzle 10 and the sealing member 30, and also plays a role in preliminary positioning when installing the suction nozzle 10. In some embodiments, the plurality of mounting posts 11 may be evenly distributed around the central axis O, and the corresponding plurality of mounting grooves 330 are also evenly distributed around the central axis O, thereby improving the stability during installation.
[0072] Specifically, the first surface 33 may include a first area 331 that is inclined relative to the central axis O, so as to match the inner surface of the suction nozzle 10 to facilitate smooth transition of airflow and to improve the sealing effect. The first area 331 includes a first end 331a close to the central axis O and a second end 331b away from the central axis O, and the first end 331a is located between the second end 331b and the suction port 10a. The first opening 311 is located in the first area 331. The second surface 35 may be perpendicular to the central axis O, and the second opening 313 is located on the second surface 35.
[0073] Furthermore, the first surface 33 may further include a second region 333 , the second region 333 is connected to the first end 331 a and the second region 333 is perpendicular to the central axis O. At this time, the first opening 311 may further extend to the second region 333 .
[0074] The air channel 31 further includes a channel 315 connecting the first opening 311 and the second opening 313. In some embodiments, the channel 315 may be a straight-through channel, which is convenient for processing and mass production.
[0075] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 , the cross-sectional area of the channel 315 perpendicular to the extension direction Y of the channel 315 itself can remain unchanged, which is conducive to reducing the impact on the airflow and thus reducing the impact on the taste of the atomized smoke oil. In this case, the channel 315 needs to be a curved channel, and further, the inner wall of the curved channel is rounded at the corner, that is, the channel 315 is curved and extends smoothly, reducing the obstruction of the airflow in the rising process, which is conducive to further reducing the loss of the atomized smoke oil (mainly the loss of large particles of smoke oil) to reduce the impact on the taste.
[0076] In some embodiments, see Figures 5 to 7, the tangent direction of the inner wall of the channel 315 at any point of the first opening 311 is defined as the first direction, and the angle between the first direction and the length direction X can be 0° to 30°, which is conducive to smoothly guiding the airflow in the channel 315 to the suction nozzle 10 and sucking it out from the suction port 10a, reducing the obstruction in the rising process of the airflow, and further helping to further reduce the loss of the atomized smoke oil (mainly the loss of large particles of smoke oil) to reduce the impact on the taste.
[0077] The tangent direction of the inner wall of the channel 315 at any point of the second opening 313 is defined as the second direction, each flue 41 includes an air outlet 410 connected to the second opening 313, and the inner wall of the flue 41 corresponding to the channel 315 has a connection with any point of the second opening 313 at the air outlet 410. In some embodiments, the second direction may be consistent with the tangent direction of the inner wall of the corresponding flue 41 at the connection, so as to facilitate the smooth introduction of the airflow in the flue 41 into the airway 31, so as to reduce the possibility of the airflow directly spraying from the flue 41 to the inner wall of the channel 315, reduce the obstruction of the airflow in the rising process, and further help to reduce the loss of the atomized smoke oil (mainly the loss of large particles of smoke oil) to reduce the impact on the taste.
[0078] Furthermore, the projection of the first opening 311 may at least partially overlap with the projection of the air inlet 10a, which is beneficial for designing that the atomized smoke oil coming out of the first opening 311 is directly sucked out from the air inlet 10a along the length direction X, thereby reducing the obstruction in the process of airflow rising, thereby facilitating further reducing the loss of atomized smoke oil (mainly the loss of large particles of smoke oil) to reduce the impact on taste.
[0079] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 , a partition plate 13 may also be provided on the inner wall of the suction nozzle 10, so as to divide the suction nozzle 10 into a plurality of storage chambers 130 distributed around the central axis O. Correspondingly, the seal 30 can be divided into a plurality of sealing portions 30a distributed around the central axis O, wherein each sealing portion 30a includes an airway 31, and each sealing portion 30a is embedded in a storage chamber 130. Since the seal 30 includes a plurality of airways 31, in order to avoid position interference when forming the airways 31, the seal 30 is divided to form a plurality of sealing portions 30a first, thereby facilitating process manufacturing. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the smoke bomb body 40 may be four, and accordingly, the sealing portion 30a is divided into four, and the partition plate 13 is roughly cross-shaped.
[0080] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7As shown, each cigarette bomb body 40 also includes an oil tank 43 arranged around its own smoke duct 41 for storing smoke oil. In this embodiment, the smoke duct 41 can be directly formed by the wall of the oil tank 43. In some embodiments, the smoke duct 41 can also be formed by passing a pipe through the oil tank 43. The oil tank 43 includes an oil outlet (not shown).
[0081] Each cigarette bomb body 40 further includes an atomizer core 45, which is disposed on a side of the oil tank 43 away from the mouthpiece and corresponds to the oil outlet, and the atomizer core 45 corresponds to the air inlet 411 of the flue 41. The atomizer core 45 is used to heat and atomize the smoke oil coming out of the oil outlet, and the atomized smoke oil enters the flue 41 through the air inlet 411.
[0082] The electronic cigarette body 20 further includes a first shell 51 , and a plurality of cigarette bombs 40 are fixedly accommodated in the first shell 51 .
[0083] The electronic cigarette body 20 further includes a power supply assembly 60, which is located on the side of the cigarette cartridge body 40 away from the mouthpiece 10 and is rotatably connected to the first shell 51. The power supply assembly 60 is used to supply power to the atomization core 45 of the cigarette cartridge body 40 to realize atomization of the cigarette oil by the atomization core 45. Specifically, by rotating the power supply assembly 60, the power supply assembly 60 is electrically connected to the atomization cores 45 of different cigarette cartridge bodies 40, so that the electrical conduction between the power supply assembly 60 and the corresponding electrically connected atomization cores 45 is controlled by the switch of the power supply assembly 60.
[0084] Specifically, the power supply assembly 60 may include a second shell 61 and a battery 63 disposed in the second shell 61 . The battery 63 is electrically connected to the atomizer core 45 of one of the cigarette bomb bodies 40 via an electrical connector (not shown).
[0085] The power supply assembly 60 may further include a cigarette cartridge holder 65, which is disposed on the second shell 61. The cigarette cartridge holder 65 can be used to cooperate with the cigarette cartridge 40. When the power supply assembly 60 is rotated, the rotational positioning is achieved through the cooperation relationship between the cigarette cartridge holder 65 and the cigarette cartridge 40, which is beneficial to the accuracy of the electrical connection between the battery 63 and the cigarette cartridge 40.
[0086] The second shell 61 may also be provided with a vent 610, which is connected to the flue 41. When inhaling through the inhalation port 10a of the mouthpiece 10, outside air enters the multi-cartridge electronic cigarette 100 through the vent 610 and mixes with the atomized smoke oil to form aerogel.
[0087] In some embodiments, the vent 610 may also be disposed on the first shell 51 .
[0088] The multi-cartridge electronic cigarette 100 of the present application, firstly, independently sets an airway 31 corresponding to the smoke channel 41 of each cartridge body 40 to connect the air inlet 10a, thereby avoiding the need to rotate the mouthpiece 10 twice when switching the cartridge body 40, making the operation more convenient, and also helping to avoid affecting the use of other cartridge bodies 40 when one airway 31 is blocked. Secondly, since the first opening 311 of each airway 31 is closer to the central axis O than the second opening 313, the air inlet 10a can be located on the central axis O when multiple cartridge bodies 40 are distributed around the central axis O, thereby making the center of gravity of the multi-cartridge electronic cigarette 100 less likely to be offset and helping to improve the appearance of the multi-cartridge electronic cigarette 100, and thus helping to improve the user experience of the user group.
[0089] The above implementation modes are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the above preferred implementation modes, a person skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present application may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present application.
