Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of atomization technology, and in particular to an electronic cigarette. Background Technology

[0002] Electronic cigarettes generally consist of an atomizing component, a mouthpiece, and an electronic control device. The atomizing component contains an atomizing chamber that connects to the mouthpiece. When a user inhales, external air triggers the microphone of the electronic control device, which then activates the atomizing component. The atomizing component atomizes the absorbed e-liquid, and the atomized vapor flows out through the mouthpiece connected to the atomizing chamber for the user to inhale.

[0003] However, the existing e-cigarette design is flawed. The atomizing chamber and mouthpiece are always connected, making it easy to accidentally activate the atomizing components and causing mouthpiece leakage. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this application is to provide an electronic cigarette that solves the technical problem of the atomizing chamber and the mouthpiece being constantly connected.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application proposes an electronic cigarette, comprising:

[0006] A suction nozzle assembly includes a suction nozzle having a mist-suction channel formed inside the suction nozzle;

[0007] The atomizing component has an atomizing chamber formed inside; and

[0008] The gas control assembly includes a connector and a sealing component. The connector has a gas control channel inside. One end of the gas control channel is connected to the mist absorption channel, and the other end of the gas control channel is connected to the atomizing chamber. The sealing component is detachably connected to the gas control channel and is used to open or block the gas control channel.

[0009] Optionally, the nozzle assembly further includes a housing, with the nozzle passing through one end of the housing, and a connector connecting the end of the nozzle located inside the housing.

[0010] Optionally, the nozzle assembly further includes a connecting tube located inside the housing, the connecting tube being sleeved outside one end of the nozzle, one end of the connecting tube being connected to the housing, and the connecting tube being connected to the connector.

[0011] Optionally, the inner wall of the housing is provided with a connecting groove for connecting the sealing component.

[0012] Optionally, the sealing element is used to block the end of the gas control channel that is away from the mist absorption channel.

[0013] Optionally, one end of the sealing member is connected to the connector, and the other end of the sealing member is detachably connected to the gas control channel to open or block the gas control channel. The sealing member is made of a deformable material.

[0014] Optionally, the wall of the gas control channel is provided with multiple connecting ribs, and the axes of the multiple connecting ribs are perpendicular to the axis of the gas control channel.

[0015] Optionally, the number of atomizing components is at least two, and the number of air control channels is consistent with the number of atomizing components and is set in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0016] Optionally, the number of atomizing components is two, and the number of mist-absorbing channels is two, each corresponding to one of the air-controlling channels.

[0017] Optionally, the connector includes a connecting part and a snap-fit ​​part, the air control channel is formed in the connecting part, one end of the snap-fit ​​part is connected to the connecting part, and the other end of the snap-fit ​​part is located between the two mist-absorbing channels and connected to the outer walls of the two mist-absorbing channels.

[0018] In this electronic cigarette application, the two ends of the airflow control channel are connected to the intake channel and the atomization chamber, respectively. A sealing element is used to open or close the airflow control channel. When the sealing element is not connected to the airflow control channel, the airflow control channel is open, and the intake channel, airflow control channel, and atomization chamber are connected, allowing the atomizing component to atomize e-liquid. When the sealing element closes the airflow control channel, the atomizing component does not atomize e-liquid, or the atomized e-liquid cannot flow into the mouthpiece for inhalation. Therefore, by controlling the connection and closure of the airflow control channel, the atomization process can be controlled, making this electronic cigarette suitable for both single-atomizing component and multi-atomizing component (switching or mixed) applications. Furthermore, when the sealing element closes the airflow control channel, the e-liquid in the atomization chamber cannot leak from the intake channel, resulting in good sealing performance for this electronic cigarette.

[0030] This application discloses an electronic cigarette, which includes a mouthpiece assembly, an atomizing assembly, and a gas control assembly. The mouthpiece assembly includes a mouthpiece with a mist-inhalation channel formed inside. The atomizing assembly has an atomizing chamber formed inside. The gas control assembly includes a connector and a sealing member. The connector has a gas control channel formed inside, one end of which is connected to the mist-inhalation channel, and the other end of which is connected to the atomizing chamber. The sealing member is detachably connected to the gas control channel and is used to open or block the gas control channel.

[0031] In this electronic cigarette application, the two ends of the airflow control channel are connected to the intake channel and the atomization chamber, respectively. A sealing element is used to open or close the airflow control channel. When the sealing element is not connected to the airflow control channel, the airflow control channel is open, and the intake channel, airflow control channel, and atomization chamber are connected, allowing the atomizing component to atomize e-liquid. When the sealing element closes the airflow control channel, the atomizing component does not atomize e-liquid, or the atomized e-liquid cannot flow into the mouthpiece for inhalation. Therefore, by controlling the connection and closure of the airflow control channel, the atomization process can be controlled, making this electronic cigarette suitable for both single-atomizing component and multi-atomizing component (switching or mixed) applications. Furthermore, when the sealing element closes the airflow control channel, the e-liquid in the atomization chamber cannot leak from the intake channel, resulting in good sealing performance for this electronic cigarette.

[0032] The following will mainly describe the specific structure of electronic cigarettes.

[0033] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The electronic cigarette 100 of this application includes a mouthpiece assembly 110. The mouthpiece assembly 110 includes a mouthpiece 111. The external shape of the mouthpiece 111 can be cylindrical or flat cylindrical, without specific limitation, as long as the mouthpiece 111 can be used to inhale aerosol. An aerosol suction channel 112 is formed inside the mouthpiece 111. The cross-section of the aerosol suction channel 112 can be circular, triangular, polygonal, waist-shaped, elliptical, or irregular in shape.

[0034] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The nozzle assembly 110 includes a housing 113, with a nozzle 111 passing through one end of the housing 113. Specifically, the housing 113 has a cylindrical structure with one end closed, and the nozzle 111 passes through the closed end of the housing 113. One end of the mist suction channel 112 is located outside the housing 113, and the other end of the mist suction channel 112 is located inside the housing 113. The cross-section of the housing 113 can be circular, triangular, polygonal, waist-shaped, elliptical, or irregular in shape.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The electronic cigarette 100 of this application includes an atomizing component 120, and an atomizing chamber 121 is formed inside the atomizing component 120. The atomizing component 120 includes an atomizing core component (not shown), which is disposed in the atomizing chamber 121 and can adsorb and atomize e-liquid. The atomizing chamber 121 can communicate with the suction channel 112 of the mouthpiece 111, thereby allowing the aerosol in the atomizing chamber 121 to flow into the mouthpiece 111 and be inhaled. The communication between the atomizing chamber 121 and the suction channel 112 can be closed, thereby shutting off the operation of the atomizing component 120 and preventing the e-liquid in the atomizing chamber 121 from leaking from the mouthpiece 111.

[0036] Please see Figure 3 The atomizing component 120 includes an air guide tube 122, which connects the atomizing chamber 121 and the mouthpiece 111, thereby enabling the atomizing chamber 121 to connect with the mist suction channel 112.

[0037] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The electronic cigarette 100 of this application includes a gas control assembly 130. The gas control assembly 130 is located between the mouthpiece 111 and the atomizing assembly 120, and the gas control assembly 130 can control the connection or closure of the mist inhalation channel 112 and the atomizing chamber 121.

[0038] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The airflow control assembly 130 includes a connector 131 and a sealing member 135. An airflow control channel 132 is formed inside the connector 131. One end of the airflow control channel 132 is connected to the mist intake channel 112, and the other end is connected to the atomizing chamber 121. The sealing member 135 is detachably connected to the airflow control channel 132 and is used to open or close the airflow control channel 132. When the sealing member 135 is not connected to the airflow control channel 132, the airflow control channel 132 is open, and the mist intake channel 112, the airflow control channel 132, and the atomizing chamber 121 are connected, allowing the atomizing assembly 120 to atomize e-liquid. When the sealing member 135 closes the airflow control channel 132, the atomizing assembly 120 does not atomize e-liquid, or the e-liquid atomized by the atomizing assembly 120 cannot flow into the mouthpiece 111 to be inhaled. Therefore, by controlling the opening and closing of the airflow control channel 132, the atomization process can be controlled. Meanwhile, when the sealing component 135 blocks the air control channel 132, the e-liquid in the atomizing chamber 121 cannot flow into the suction channel 112 of the mouthpiece 111 and leaks from the suction channel 112. The electronic cigarette 100 of this application has good sealing performance.

[0039] Please see Figure 4The connector 131 connects to one end of the mouthpiece 111 located inside the housing 113, and the connector 131 is located inside the housing 113. Thus, the housing 113 can protect the connector 131, making the structure of the electronic cigarette 100 more compact. Specifically, the wall of the mist extraction channel 112 is connected to the wall of the air control channel 132, and the two can be connected by abutment, snap-fit, adhesive, screw, or magnetic attraction.

[0040] Please see Figure 2 The nozzle assembly 110 also includes a connecting cylinder 114, which is located inside the housing 113. The connecting cylinder 114 is sleeved around one end of the nozzle 111, and one end of the connecting cylinder 114 is connected to the housing 113. The connecting cylinder 114 is connected to the connector 131. This makes the connection between the connector 131 and the nozzle 111 more stable. The outer wall of the connector 131 can abut against, snap onto, adhere to, screw onto, or magnetically connect to the inner wall of the connecting cylinder 114.

[0041] Please see Figure 2 The inner wall of the housing 113 is provided with a connecting groove 115, which is used to connect the sealing component 135. Thus, the connecting groove 115 can fix and protect the sealing component 135, and the connection of the sealing component 135 is relatively stable; at the same time, the structure of the electronic cigarette 100 is relatively compact.

[0042] The sealing element 135 can be used to block the end of the air control channel 132 that is away from the mist suction channel 112. Therefore, it is not necessary to first separate the connector 131 from the nozzle 111. The sealing element 135 can be directly taken out from the connecting groove 115 and inserted into the air control channel 132, which is more convenient.

[0043] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 One end of the sealing element 135 is connected to the connecting element 131, and the other end of the sealing element 135 is detachably connected to the gas control channel 132 to open or close the gas control channel 132. The sealing element 135 is made of a deformable material. Therefore, the connection of the sealing element 135 is relatively stable and not easily lost. Furthermore, the deformability of the sealing element 135 allows for easy movement of the sealing element 135 to open or close the gas control channel 132. Further, the sealing element 135 can be made of an elastic material (such as plastic, rubber, or silicone), thus allowing the sealing element 135 to be bent and to close the gas control channel 132. The sealing element 135 and the connecting element 131 can be integrally formed or detachably connected (clamped, glued, or screwed).

[0044] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The sealing component 135 includes a connecting rod portion 136 and a sealing plug portion 137 connected to each other. The connecting rod portion 136 is connected to the connecting component 131 and is bendable. The sealing plug portion 137 is used to open or block the gas control passage 132. Thus, the sealing component 135 can realize the function of opening or blocking the gas control passage 132. The connecting rod portion 136 and the sealing plug portion 137 can be integrally formed or detachably connected (clamped, glued, or screwed).

[0045] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The gas control channel 132 has multiple connecting ribs 138 on its wall, with the axes of the ribs 138 perpendicular to the axis of the gas control channel 132. Therefore, the connecting ribs 138 increase the friction between the sealing element 135 and the gas control channel 132, enhancing the connection between them and resulting in a better sealing effect. The connecting ribs 138 can be made of elastic materials (such as plastic, rubber, or silicone), further improving the connection between the sealing element 135 and the gas control channel 132.

[0046] Please see Figure 1 The number of atomizing components 120 is at least two, and the number of airflow control channels 132 is consistent with the number of atomizing components 120 and is set one-to-one. Therefore, the operation of different atomizing components 120 can be controlled by the sealing member 135, thus the electronic cigarette 100 of this application can be used in scenarios with multiple atomizing components 120. The number of suction channels 112 can be one, and the suction channel 112 is connected to at least two airflow control channels 132. Therefore, the setting of the suction channel 112 is relatively convenient. The number of suction channels 112 can also be consistent with the number of airflow control channels 132 and be set one-to-one. Therefore, the effect of controlling the connection and closure of the atomizing chamber 121 and the suction channel 112 through the airflow control channel 132 is relatively good. This application does not limit the number of sealing members 135; the number of sealing members 135 can be less than, equal to, or greater than the number of airflow control channels 132.

[0047] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment, there are two atomizing components 120, two air control channels 132, and two mist suction channels 112, with each atomizing component 120, air control channel 132, and mist suction channel 112 corresponding to the other.

[0048] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4In the above embodiment, the connector 131 includes a connecting portion 133 and a snap-fit ​​portion 134. An air control channel 132 is formed within the connecting portion 133. One end of the snap-fit ​​portion 134 is connected to the connecting portion 133, and the other end of the snap-fit ​​portion 134 is located between the two mist-absorbing channels 112 and connected to the outer walls of the two mist-absorbing channels 112. Therefore, the connection between the connector 131 and the mist-absorbing channels 112 is relatively stable. The connecting portion 133 and the snap-fit ​​portion 134 can be integrally formed or detachably connected (snap-fit, glued, or screwed). The snap-fit ​​portion 134 can abut, snap-fit, or glue to the outer wall of the mist-absorbing channel 112.

[0049] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the above embodiments, the number of sealing elements 135 can be one. When a user uses one atomizing component 120, the sealing element 135 is used to block the air control channel 132 corresponding to another atomizing component 120, thus enabling the use of a single atomizing component 110. When the user wants two atomizing components 120 to work simultaneously, the sealing element 135 can be placed in the connecting groove 115.

[0050] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and does not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the inventive concept of this application and the contents of the specification and drawings of this application, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this application.
