[0025] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, the embodiments of the present utility model provide a battery structure for an electronic cigarette, including a bottom case 100, an upper cover 200, a battery body 300, and a circuit board 400.
[0026] Among them, the bottom case 100 has a cavity 110 with an upward opening. The battery body 300 and the circuit board 400 are both disposed in the cavity 110, and the circuit board 400 is located at one end of the battery body 300. The upper cover 200 covers the upper end of the bottom case 100. Specifically, the width of the battery body 300 is the same as the width of the cavity 110 to ensure the stability of the installation of the battery body 300.
[0027] Further, one end of the battery body 300 facing the circuit board 400 has two pole ears 310. One end of the circuit board 400 facing the pole ears 310 is provided with first connection terminals 410 electrically connected to the pole ears 310. Further, two through holes 120 are provided at one end of the bottom case 100 close to the circuit board 400. The two through holes 120 are spaced apart and communicate with the cavity 110. The other end of the circuit board 400 is provided with second connection terminals 420 corresponding to the through holes 120. It should be understood that the second connection terminals 420 are connected to the metal elastic pieces on the circuit board 400 of the electronic cigarette to power the microphone head and the cartridge of the electronic cigarette. During assembly, it is easy to assemble by aligning the metal elastic pieces on the circuit board 400 of the electronic cigarette with the through holes 120, so that the metal elastic pieces can be connected to the second connection terminals 420, which can greatly improve the assembly efficiency. And after the electronic cigarette is used up, the user can take out the battery body 300 from the cavity 110 by opening the upper cover 200 for classified recycling, which is environmentally friendly. Moreover, the upper cover 200 and the bottom case 100 can be reused, which can save costs.
[0028] In one embodiment, the pole ear 310 is bent downward to form a connecting portion 311. The connecting portion 311 contacts the first connection terminal 410. During assembly, the user or the assembler can manually bend the pole ear 310, which is simple and convenient to operate. The connecting portion 311 can improve the connection stability between the pole ear 310 and the first connection terminal 410.
[0029] In one embodiment, a first partition wall 111 is provided on the bottom wall of the cavity 110. The first partition wall 111 and the cavity 110 form a bayonet 112 for cooperating with the circuit board 400. Specifically, the first partition wall 111 and the inner wall of the cavity 110 corresponding to the through hole 120 form the bayonet 112. The circuit board 400 can be limited by inserting it into the first bayonet 112, and the structure is simple and easy to operate.
[0030] In one embodiment, a second partition wall 113 is further provided on the bottom wall of the cavity 110. Two second partition walls 113 are spaced apart along the length direction of the cavity 110. The two second partition walls 113 respectively abut against the two ends of the battery to limit the battery body 300 and prevent the battery body 300 from moving, which may affect the use.
[0031] In one embodiment, a pressing block 210 corresponding to the battery body 300 is provided at the lower end of the upper cover 200. When the upper cover 200 is covered on the bottom case 100, the pressing block 210 abuts against the battery body 300 to further limit the battery body 300 and improve the stability of the battery body 300.
[0032] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the present utility model.
