[0045] In light of the aforementioned shortcomings of existing manually assembled housings and mouthpieces, the applicant, drawing upon years of extensive practical experience and expertise in the design and manufacture of such products, combined with applied theory, has actively engaged in research and innovation, hoping to develop a technology that addresses these shortcomings and make assembly jigs more practical. Through continuous research and design, repeated prototype production, and refinement, the present invention has been developed, which possesses proven practical value.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , the embodiment of the utility model provides a pre-installed alignment fixture, comprising:

[0047] The jig body 1 is provided with a positioning groove 11 for inserting the shell 100 of the electronic atomizer; the shell 100 can rotate in the positioning groove 11 around the center line of the positioning groove 11; the rotating shaft is installed on the jig body 1, and the alignment rod 2 is installed on the rotating shaft 3, and the alignment rod 2 cannot slide along the rotating shaft 3; the alignment rod 2 can rotate around the center line of the rotating shaft 3 so that the tail end of the alignment rod 2 leans against the outer peripheral surface of the top end of the shell 100.

[0048] In this embodiment, after the shell 100 is inserted into the positioning groove 11, the alignment rod 2 is rotated so that the tail end of the alignment rod 2 rests on the outer peripheral surface of the top end of the shell 100, and then the shell 100 is rotated to a suitable angle using the alignment rod 2 as a positioning reference (generally so that the lines or patterns on the shell 100 are facing the alignment rod 2), and then the top of the alignment rod 2 is used as an installation reference to install the cigarette holder 200 on the shell 100. At this time, a certain part of the cigarette holder 200 is facing the cigarette holder, thereby significantly improving the consistency of the assembled product. It should be noted that in the existing assembly method, the rotation angle of the shell 100 and the rotation angle of the cigarette holder 200 are not controlled. Therefore, if there is a pattern or texture on the surface of the shell 100, it is difficult to keep the relative position of the pattern or texture and the cigarette holder 200 consistent, making the appearance of the product more messy. The pre-installed alignment fixture in this embodiment can make the appearance of the product more consistent.

[0049] It should be noted that the outer shell 100 generally includes a tubular housing and a bottom cover installed at the bottom end of the tubular housing. An opening for inserting the mouthpiece 200 is provided at the top of the tubular housing. A charging port may be provided on the bottom cover.

[0050] Optionally, an icon 101 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the housing 100; the electronic atomizer further includes a mouthpiece 200, which is used to be installed on the top of the housing 100, and the mouthpiece 200 is provided with an alignment line 201 for aligning with the alignment rod 2. Specifically, by adjusting the relative positions of the icon 101 and the alignment rod 2, the housing 100 is rotated to a suitable angle. For example, the alignment rod 2 is in the middle of the icon 101, and then the mouthpiece 200 is assembled so that the alignment line 201 on the mouthpiece 200 aligns with the alignment rod 2, so that the appearance of each finished product can be basically the same.

[0051] Optionally, an installation groove 12 is provided at the front side of the top of the fixture body 1, and a rotating shaft 3 passing through the installation groove 12 is installed on the fixture body 1; one end of the alignment rod 2 is inserted into the installation groove 12 and connected to the rotating shaft 3. The alignment rod 2 rotates through the rotating shaft 3, and the installation groove 12 effectively prevents the alignment rod 2 from sliding along the set center line and causing the alignment rod 2 to deviate. Optionally, the alignment rod 2 can be rotatably sleeved on the rotating shaft 3; or, the alignment rod 2 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 3, and the rotating shaft 3 can rotate around its own center line.

[0052] Optionally, the center line of the positioning groove is inclined to the horizontal plane, and the fixture body 1 extends an inclined extension 13 for supporting the housing 100; an arc surface 131 for fitting the housing 100 is provided on one side of the inclined extension 13 close to the positioning groove 11.

[0053] The arc surface 131 provided on the inclined extension 13 can better maintain the housing 100 in an inclined state, making it more convenient for workers to assemble.

[0054] Optionally, the rotating shaft 3 is perpendicular to the center line of the positioning groove 11.

[0055] Optionally, the opposite side walls of the installation groove 12 are parallel to each other, and the alignment rod 2 is provided with a flat portion 21 and an extended positioning portion 22 connecting the flat portion 21; the opposite side surfaces of the flat portion 21 respectively abut against the opposite side walls of the installation groove 12. Specifically, the width of the extended positioning portion 22 is relatively narrow, so that the alignment line on the mouthpiece 200 can better align with the extended positioning portion 22, as Figure 2 shown.

[0056] Optionally, the flat part 21 is connected with a convex limiting part 23; when the convex limiting part 23 abuts against the outer side surface of the jig body 1, one end of the extending positioning part 22 far away from the jig body 1 is in a suspended state. The setting of the convex limiting part 23 can avoid the situation that the extending positioning part 22 directly relies on the ground, and avoid the deformation of the extending positioning part 22 caused by the collision with the ground, thereby being beneficial to prolong the service life of the extending positioning part 22.

[0057] Optionally, the jig body 1 includes a support plate 1001 and a support seat 1002 installed on the support plate 1001. The positioning groove 11 is arranged on the support seat 1002, and the alignment rod 2 is installed on the support seat 1002. The support plate 1001 can better support the support seat 1002, thereby ensuring the stability of the pre-installed alignment jig.

[0058] Optionally, the alignment rod 2 is used to lean against the side surface of the housing 100 with a smooth transition to avoid scratching the housing 100.

[0059] Optionally, the alignment rod 2 is detachably installed on the jig body 1.

[0060] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the text and drawings of the specification of the present application, the patent protection scope of the present application cannot be limited thereby. Any technical solutions obtained by equivalent structure or equivalent process substitution or modification based on the essential concept of the present application and using the content recorded in the text and drawings of the specification of the present application, as well as the technical solutions of the above embodiments directly or indirectly implemented in other related technical fields, are all included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
