Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electronic cigarettes, and in particular to an inclined oil-replenishing mechanism of an electronic cigarette. Background Art

[0002] In the field of e-cigarette technology, refilling is an essential step in the maintenance and use of e-cigarettes. Traditional e-cigarette refilling often requires users to directly open the oil tank cover and manually drip the oil into the e-cigarette using a dropper or other tool. This method is not only cumbersome but also prone to spillage and contamination during the refill process, affecting the user experience and the performance of the e-cigarette.

[0003] Existing e-cigarette refill designs often rely on simple reservoirs and lack efficient automatic refill mechanisms. When a user runs low on liquid, they must pause, search for a suitable refill, and follow the e-cigarette's instructions. This refilling method not only disrupts the user's smoking experience but can also degrade or damage the e-cigarette's performance due to improper operation.

[0004] Furthermore, while some e-cigarettes feature detachable liquid tanks, users still need to open the lid to refill. This is not only cumbersome, but can also easily lead to liquid volatilization or impurities entering the tank due to a loose lid seal, affecting the taste and lifespan of the e-cigarette. Therefore, a tilting refill mechanism for an e-cigarette is provided to address the aforementioned technical issues. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the present utility model is to provide an inclined oil-refilling mechanism for an electronic cigarette in response to the deficiencies of the prior art, so as to solve the technical problem that the operation of the existing electronic cigarette when refilling oil is relatively complicated.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is as follows:

[0007] A tilting oil refilling mechanism for an electronic cigarette includes an upper oil bottle and a lower oil bottle, and also includes an oil guide pipe for guiding the tobacco oil in the lower oil bottle into the upper oil bottle. A valve component is installed inside the upper oil bottle to block the end of the oil guide pipe to prevent the tobacco oil in the upper oil bottle from flowing back into the lower oil bottle. When the upper oil bottle and the lower oil bottle are in a tilted posture, the valve component opens the oil guide pipe, and when the upper oil bottle and the lower oil bottle are in an upright posture, the valve component blocks the oil guide pipe.

[0008] Furthermore, one end of the oil guide tube is connected to the bottom side of the upper oil bottle, and the other end is connected to the top side of the lower oil bottle; the end of the oil guide tube connected to the upper oil bottle extends into the upper oil bottle.

[0009] Furthermore, an oil inlet is provided on the bottom side of the upper oil bottle, and an oil outlet is provided on the top side of the lower oil bottle, and the oil inlet and the oil outlet are connected; an oil guide pipe is placed in the upper oil bottle and one end is connected to the oil inlet.

[0010] Furthermore, the valve component includes a fixed shaft arranged axially and transversely, the fixed shaft is rotatably provided with a hinge, and the hinge is equipped with an oil baffle for blocking the oil guide pipe port extending into the oil bottle.

[0011] Furthermore, the port surface of the oil guide pipe extending into the oil supply bottle is tilted, and the tilted port surface faces the top of the oil supply bottle, and the oil baffle blocking the port of the oil guide pipe is arranged tilted.

[0012] Furthermore, an oil outlet is provided on the top of the upper oil bottle, and an oil inlet is provided on the top of the lower oil bottle.

[0013] Furthermore, a sealing plug is included for sealing the oil inlet, and a plurality of annular protrusions are provided on the side of the sealing plug that contacts the inner wall of the oil inlet.

[0014] Furthermore, the cross-sections of the upper oil bottle and the lower oil bottle are rectangular.

[0015] Furthermore, the cross sections of the upper oil bottle and the lower oil bottle are circular.

[0016] Furthermore, the cross sections of the upper oil bottle and the lower oil bottle are elliptical.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the upper oil bottle is used to continuously supply oil to the electronic cigarette, and the lower oil bottle is used to store oil. When the oil in the upper oil bottle is used up, the upper and lower oil bottles are tilted to a certain angle. Under the action of the hydraulic pressure of the oil in the lower oil bottle and the weight of the valve component itself, the valve component is separated from the port of the oil guide tube and opened, so that the upper and lower oil bottles are connected. The oil in the lower oil bottle is then introduced into the upper oil bottle, thus achieving oil replenishment. When the upper and lower oil bottles are then restored to an upright position, under the action of the hydraulic pressure of the oil in the upper oil bottle and the weight of the valve component itself, the valve component re-blocks the port of the oil guide tube, preventing the oil in the upper oil bottle from flowing back into the lower oil bottle, thus completing oil replenishment.

[0018] By setting up two oil bottles, one for backup and one for use, the storage capacity of the e-liquid is increased; in addition, by tilting the oil bottles to refill the oil, not only the efficiency of refilling is improved, but also the convenience of refilling is improved, thereby enhancing the user experience.

[0028] The following is a detailed description of the tilted oil refilling mechanism of the electronic cigarette of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] like Figure 1-3 As shown, an embodiment of the tilted oil filling mechanism of an electronic cigarette of the present invention includes an upper oil bottle 1 and a lower oil bottle 2 arranged side by side, and the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are installed on the electronic cigarette in an upright posture, and also include an oil guide pipe 3 for guiding the tobacco oil in the lower oil bottle 2 into the upper oil bottle 1. A valve component is installed inside the upper oil bottle 1 to block the end of the oil guide pipe 3 to prevent the tobacco oil in the upper oil bottle 1 from flowing back into the lower oil bottle 2; when the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are in a tilted posture, the valve component opens the oil guide pipe 3, and when the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are in an upright posture, the valve component blocks the oil guide pipe 3. Specifically, the upper oil bottle 1 is used to continuously provide oil to the electronic cigarette, and the lower oil bottle 2 is used to store oil so that the oil can be replenished into the upper oil bottle 1. When the oil in the upper oil bottle 1 is used up, the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are tilted to a certain angle, and the valve component automatically opens the oil guide pipe 3, and the oil in the lower oil bottle 2 is introduced into the upper oil bottle 1, thereby replenishing the oil. When the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are restored to an upright position, the valve component automatically blocks the oil guide pipe 3, thereby preventing the oil in the upper oil bottle 1 from flowing back into the lower oil bottle 2, thereby completing the replenishment of the oil.

[0030] In addition, an oil outlet 101 is provided at the top of the upper oil bottle 1, and an oil inlet 201 is provided at the top of the lower oil bottle 2; the tobacco oil in the upper oil bottle 1 is discharged from the oil outlet 101, and is absorbed by the oil storage cotton (not shown in the figure) and then atomized by the atomization device (not shown in the figure); and after the tobacco oil in the lower oil bottle 2 is replenished, the tobacco oil is filled into the lower oil bottle 2 through the oil inlet 201 for storage.

[0031] In the first embodiment of the present invention, one end of the oil guide tube 3 is connected to the bottom side of the upper oil bottle 1, and the other end is connected to the top side of the lower oil bottle 2. The end of the oil guide tube 3 connected to the upper oil bottle 1 extends into the upper oil bottle 1. When the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are tilted at a certain angle, the oil flows from the top of the lower oil bottle 2 through the oil guide tube 3 to the bottom of the upper oil bottle 1. This arrangement of the oil guide tube 3 is intended to increase the flow rate of the oil, thereby improving the efficiency of refilling.

[0032] In the second embodiment of the present invention (such as Figure 4-5 As shown, the upper oil bottle 1 has an oil inlet on the bottom side, and the lower oil bottle 2 has an oil outlet on the top side, with the oil inlet and outlet holes connected. An oil guide tube 3 is placed inside the upper oil bottle 1, with one end connected to the oil inlet. The oil outlet and oil inlet holes connect the lower oil bottle 2 directly to the upper oil bottle 1, allowing for more direct liquid replenishment into the upper oil bottle 1, further reducing refilling time.

[0033] Furthermore, the valve assembly includes a fixed shaft 4 disposed within the upper oil bottle 1 and arranged transversely to the axis thereof. The fixed shaft 4 is rotatably connected to a hinge 5, and an oil baffle 6 is mounted on the hinge 5 for blocking the end of the oil guide tube 3 extending into the upper oil bottle 1. When the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are in an upright position, the oil baffle 6 blocks the end of the oil guide tube 3. When the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are tilted to a certain angle, the oil baffle 6 rotates on the fixed shaft 4 via the hinge 5 under the action of the hydraulic pressure of the oil in the lower oil bottle 2 and the weight of the oil baffle 6, disengaging from the end of the oil guide tube 3 and opening it, thereby connecting the upper oil bottle 1 with the lower oil bottle 2. When the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are restored to an upright position, the oil baffle 6 re-blocks the end of the oil guide tube 3 under the action of the hydraulic pressure of the oil in the upper oil bottle 1 and the weight of the oil baffle 6. Furthermore, the oil baffle 6 is arranged at the bottom of the oil bottle 1 so that the oil baffle 6 can more fully receive the hydraulic pressure of the smoke oil.

[0034] Furthermore, the end surface of the oil guide tube 3 extending into the upper oil bottle 1 is tilted, with the tilted end surface facing the top of the upper oil bottle 1. The oil baffle 6, which blocks the end of the oil guide tube 3, is arranged at an angle. By setting the end surface of the oil guide tube 3 as an inclined surface, the oil baffle 6 is tilted when blocking the end of the oil guide tube 3. This arrangement further enhances the effectiveness of the oil baffle 6 in receiving the hydraulic pressure of the oil. When the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are returned to an upright position, the hydraulic pressure applies downward force to the oil baffle 6, allowing the oil baffle 6 to more fully receive the hydraulic pressure of the oil, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of blocking the end of the oil guide tube 3.

[0035] Additionally, the oil refilling mechanism includes a sealing plug 7 for sealing the oil inlet 201. After the oil is filled into the lower oil bottle 2 for storage, the sealing plug 7 seals the oil inlet 201, preventing the oil from leaking out of the oil inlet 201 when the electronic cigarette is in use. Several annular protrusions 701 are provided on the side of the sealing plug 7 that contacts the inner sidewall of the oil inlet 201. These annular protrusions 701 ensure more complete contact between the sealing plug 7 and the inner sidewall of the oil inlet 201, thereby improving the sealing efficiency of the sealing plug 7.

[0036] In this embodiment, the cross-sections of the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are rectangular. In the second embodiment of the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 (as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown), the cross-sections of the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are circular. In addition, in the third embodiment of the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 (as shown), the cross-sections of the upper oil bottle 1 and the lower oil bottle 2 are circular. Figure 7 As shown, the cross-sections of the upper and lower oil bottles 1 and 2 are elliptical. By providing upper and lower oil bottles 1 and 2 of different shapes, the two can be installed to accommodate different models of electronic cigarettes. Furthermore, the different shapes of the upper and lower oil bottles 1 and 2 can also affect the flow rate of the e-liquid.

[0037] In summary, it can be seen that the present invention has the above-mentioned excellent characteristics, which can enhance its performance unprecedented in the past and become a product with great practical value.

[0038] The above contents are only preferred embodiments of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, according to the concept of the present invention, there may be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. The content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
