Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electronic cigarettes, and in particular to an electronic cigarette provided with a skin-covered shell. Background Art

[0002] Electronic cigarettes are electronic products that electrically heat tobacco liquid to form vapor aerosol particles for inhalation. Their advantages, such as requiring no open flames, being portable, and readily available, have made them highly popular among consumers. Existing electronic cigarettes come in a wide variety of styles, including non-detachable, integrated models, cartridge-based models, models with cotton or liquid reservoirs, and models with or without refillable liquids. Regardless of the type, the primary components of an electronic cigarette generally include a housing, a battery housed within the housing, a main control board, an airflow sensor, an oil cup, and an atomizer coil. Optimization and improvements to existing electronic cigarettes primarily focus on the assembly structure of these components, as well as on improving oil seals to prevent oil leakage and airflow sensors from being infiltrated by condensate. Consequently, these improvements are now largely mature. Consequently, those skilled in the relevant field have shifted their focus from optimizing the internal structure of existing electronic cigarettes to their external components. To enhance the grip and drop resistance of electronic cigarettes, existing designs include leather cases designed to fit over the electronic cigarette. These cases increase the comfort of holding the electronic cigarette and provide drop protection. Furthermore, some electronic cigarettes are directly covered with stickers. However, the existing stickers are prone to peeling off the edges of the stickers after long-term use, which affects the user experience. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize and improve the existing sticker structure of electronic cigarettes to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an electronic cigarette with a skin-type shell, which solves the problem that the skin of the existing skin-type electronic cigarette is prone to warping after long-term use.

[0004] The technical solution disclosed by the utility model is an electronic cigarette with a skin-type shell, including a cigarette rod host and a cigarette cartridge, the cigarette rod host including a host shell, a mounting bracket sleeved in the host shell, a battery, a control panel and a microphone sensor fixed to the mounting bracket, the host shell being hollow, open at the upper end, closed at the lower end and having a runway-shaped cross-section, a convex ring portion is provided around the outer wall of the upper opening edge of the host shell, and raised surrounding edges are provided on the left and right sides of the convex ring portion along the left and right sides and the lower end of the host shell, the raised surrounding edges, the convex ring portion and the outer wall of the host shell form a first sticking slot and a second sticking slot, the first sticking slot and the second sticking slot are respectively stuck with a first skin and a second skin, and the edges of the convex surrounding edges corresponding to the first sticking slot and the second sticking slot are provided with a clamping slot portion for clamping the edges of the first skin and the second skin.

[0005] Furthermore, the outer walls on the left and right sides of the raised edge portion are designed to be outwardly convex curved surfaces, the bottom surfaces of the first and second sticking slots of the main housing are outwardly convex curved surfaces on both sides along the length direction of the main housing, the middle area is a plane connected to the curved surfaces on both sides, and the bottom surfaces of the first and second sticking slots corresponding to the lower end of the main housing are set to be outwardly convex curved surfaces.

[0006] Furthermore, an LED indicator light is provided on the top surface of the control panel, and a step opening is provided on the plane of the middle area of ​​the first sticker slot of the host shell for transmitting the light of the LED indicator light. A light guide is provided at the step opening, and a through hole is provided at the first sticker corresponding to the light guide.

[0007] Furthermore, the light guide component includes a translucent film, and a light guide protrusion is provided on the translucent film. The light guide protrusion and the translucent film are injection molded as a whole with a translucent material. The translucent film is embedded in the step mouth. The translucent film is flush with the plane of the middle area of ​​the host shell, and the light guide protrusion is embedded in the through hole position of the first sticker.

[0008] Furthermore, the first and second veneers are both composed of a PU surface layer, a non-woven fabric middle layer, and a reinforced fabric bottom layer. The non-woven fabric middle layer and the reinforced fabric bottom layer are both black to ensure that the through-holes of the first veneer are not transparent.

[0009] Furthermore, a screw connecting column is provided at the bottom of the lower end of the mounting bracket, and a groove is provided at the bottom of the lower end of the main body shell. The bottom of the groove is provided with a countersunk hole for docking the screw connecting column, which is connected to the screw connecting column through a countersunk screw. A filling block is embedded in the groove to cover the countersunk screw.

[0010] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the electronic cigarette with a skin-type shell designed by this technical solution has a slot portion for snapping the edge of the skin at the edge of the sticking slot for sticking the skin. The edge of the skin is stuck in the slot portion and adhered by adhesive, so that the edge of the skin is firmly confined in the slot portion, making the edge of the skin more secure. The left and right sides and the lower end of the main body shell of this solution are extended with raised edge portions, and the outer walls on the left and right sides of the raised edge portions are designed as outwardly convex curved surfaces. This external design makes the outwardly convex curved surfaces on both sides of the electronic cigarette shell conform to ergonomics when holding it, improving the grip. The raised edge portion serves as a decorative frame to separate the main body shell of the electronic cigarette into two sticking slots on the front and back. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
