Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of atomization technology, and in particular to an electronic cigarette. Background Technology
[0002] Existing electronic cigarettes typically include an electronic control unit and an atomizing device. The electronic control unit provides power and performs electronic control, while the atomizing device atomizes the e-liquid. The atomizing device may include an atomizer and an e-liquid bottle. In some electronic cigarettes, the electronic control unit and the atomizing device can be stored separately and assembled only when in use.
[0003] To prevent e-liquid leakage from the atomizer, plugs are typically installed on the atomizer and the e-liquid bottle. When assembling an e-cigarette, users need to remove the plugs before assembling the atomizer and the electronic control unit, which is not only time-consuming and laborious but also prone to leakage, resulting in a poor user experience. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main objective of this application is to provide an electronic cigarette that solves the technical problems of cumbersome assembly and easy leakage of electronic cigarettes.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application proposes an electronic cigarette, which includes:
[0006] An atomizing device includes an oil storage tank, an oil passage, and an oil supply tank. The oil storage tank and the oil supply tank are respectively connected to both sides of the oil passage and are respectively connected to the oil passage. One end of the oil passage is provided with a clearance passage connecting to the oil passage.
[0007] An elastic element is disposed within the oil passage;
[0008] A sealing element, disposed within the oil passage, is connected to the elastic element and, with the cooperation of the elastic element, abuts at one end against the end of the oil passage connecting to the clearance passage. The sealing element closes the connection between the oil storage tank and the oil supply tank. The sealing element is movable toward the end of the clearance passage away from the clearance passage to open the closure of the connection between the oil storage tank and the oil supply tank.
[0009] An electrical control device is detachably connected to the atomizing device. The electrical control device includes a connecting post for inserting into the clearance channel to push the sealing member to move. The connecting post is capable of maintaining a seal with the clearance channel.
[0010] Optionally, when one end of the sealing member abuts against the oil passage, the sealing member is sealed to the clearance passage.
[0011] Optionally, when one end of the sealing member abuts against the oil passage, the sealing member is sealed to the oil passage, and the sealing member is recessed to form a connecting groove for connecting the connecting column.
[0012] Optionally, the electronic cigarette includes a sealing ring, which is sleeved on the outside of the connecting post to seal the wall of the clearance channel.
[0013] Optionally, the number of the avoidance channels is at least two, and the number of the connecting columns is equal to the number of the avoidance channels and corresponds one-to-one with the at least two avoidance channels.
[0014] Optionally, the thrust exerted by the elastic element on the sealing element is greater than the gravity acting on the sealing element.
[0015] Optionally, the elastic element is a spring, and the electronic cigarette includes a first guide element disposed within the elastic element, one end of the first guide element being connected to the sealing element.
[0016] Optionally, the electronic cigarette includes a second guide disposed within the elastic member, one end of the second guide being connected to the wall of the oil passage, and the other end of the second guide being able to be sleeved with the end of the first guide away from the sealing member.
[0017] In this electronic cigarette application, when the electronic control device and atomizing device are not assembled, the sealing component, in cooperation with the elastic component, seals the connection between the oil storage tank and the oil supply tank, preventing e-liquid leakage from the atomizing device. When the atomizing device and electronic control device are assembled, external force (which can be manual by the user) drives the connecting post to insert into the clearance channel and pushes the sealing component towards the end of the oil passage away from the clearance channel (i.e., the elastic component), opening the seal between the oil storage tank and the oil supply tank. Thus, it is not necessary to first open the seal between the oil storage tank and the oil supply tank before assembling the electronic control device and the atomizing device. This electronic cigarette application achieves both the assembly of the atomizing device and the electronic control device and the filling of the oil storage tank in a single operation step; simultaneously, the sealing component moves a certain distance to open the oil storage tank for filling, making the oil passage process easy to control. Furthermore, during the movement of the sealing component, the clearance channel remains sealed by the connecting post, preventing e-liquid leakage during the oil passage process. Therefore, the electronic cigarette application application is easy to assemble and less prone to leakage. Attached Figure Description

[0030] This application discloses an electronic cigarette, which may include an atomizing device, an elastic element, a sealing element, and an electronic control device. The atomizing device may include a reservoir, an oil passage, and a supply tank. The reservoir and supply tank are respectively connected to both sides of the oil passage and communicate with it. One end of the oil passage may have a clearance channel connecting to the oil passage. The elastic element may be disposed within the oil passage. The sealing element may be disposed within the oil passage and connected to the elastic element. With the cooperation of the elastic element, one end of the sealing element abuts against the end of the oil passage connecting to the clearance channel. The sealing element can close the communication between the reservoir and the supply tank. The sealing element can also move towards the end of the clearance channel away from the clearance channel to open the closure of the communication between the reservoir and the supply tank. The electronic control device may be detachably connected to the atomizing device. The electronic control device may include a connecting post, which can be inserted into the clearance channel to push the sealing element to move. The connecting post can maintain a seal with the clearance channel.
[0031] In this electronic cigarette application, when the electronic control device and atomizing device are not assembled, the sealing component, in cooperation with the elastic component, seals the connection between the oil storage tank and the oil supply tank, preventing e-liquid leakage from the atomizing device. When the atomizing device and electronic control device are assembled, external force (which can be manual by the user) drives the connecting post to insert into the clearance channel and pushes the sealing component towards the end of the oil passage away from the clearance channel (i.e., the elastic component), opening the seal between the oil storage tank and the oil supply tank. Thus, it is not necessary to first open the seal between the oil storage tank and the oil supply tank before assembling the electronic control device and the atomizing device. This electronic cigarette application achieves both the assembly of the atomizing device and the electronic control device and the filling of the oil storage tank in a single operation step; simultaneously, the sealing component moves a certain distance to open the oil storage tank for filling, making the oil passage process easy to control. Furthermore, during the movement of the sealing component, the clearance channel remains sealed by the connecting post, preventing e-liquid leakage during the oil passage process. Therefore, the electronic cigarette application application is easy to assemble and less prone to leakage.
[0032] The following is a detailed description of the electronic cigarette in this application.
[0033] Please see Figures 1 to 5 The electronic cigarette 10 proposed in this application may include an atomizing device 100. The atomizing device 100 may include an oil storage tank 110, an oil passage 120, and an oil supply tank 130. The oil storage tank 110 and the oil supply tank 130 are respectively connected to and communicate with the oil passage 120. Specifically, the first sidewall 121 of the oil passage 120 is connected to the oil storage tank 110, and an oil inlet 140 connecting the oil storage tank 110 and the oil passage 120 is provided. The second sidewall 122 of the oil passage 120 is connected to the oil supply tank 130, and an oil supply hole 150 connecting the oil passage 120 and the oil supply tank 130 is provided. The oil supply tank 130 can store e-liquid, and the e-liquid in the oil supply tank 130 can flow into the oil storage tank 110 sequentially through the oil supply hole 150, the oil passage 120, and the oil inlet 140. The first sidewall 121 and the second sidewall 122 can be two opposite sidewalls or two adjacent sidewalls.
[0034] Please see Figure 1 , Figures 3 to 5 In some embodiments, the atomizing device 100 may include an atomizer 160 and an oil bottle 170. The atomizer 160 and the oil bottle 170 may be detachably connected. The atomizer 160 may include an oil reservoir 110 and an oil passage 120. The atomizer 160 may include an upper shell 161 and a base 162, and the oil reservoir 110 and the oil passage 120 may be formed jointly by the upper shell 161 and the base 162. The oil bottle 170 may include an oil supply chamber 130.
[0035] Please see Figures 1 to 5 The electronic cigarette 10 proposed in this application may include an elastic element 200. The elastic element 200 may be disposed within the oil passage 120, and one end of the elastic element 200 may be connected to the second end 124 of the oil passage 120 (i.e., the end of the oil passage 120 away from the avoidance passage 125). The elastic element 200 and the second end 124 of the oil passage 120 may be welded, snap-fitted, or bonded.
[0036] Please see Figure 1 , Figures 3 to 5 The elastic element 200 can be elastic in its length direction, meaning that the length of the elastic element 200 can be compressed or stretched. The elastic element 200 can be a spring. The elastic element 200 can also be an elastic column, and the elastic element 200 can be made of materials such as plastic, silicone, or rubber.
[0037] Please see Figures 1 to 5The electronic cigarette 10 proposed in this application may include a sealing member 300. The sealing member 300 may be disposed within the oil passage 120. The sealing member 300 is connected to the elastic member 200 and, with the cooperation of the elastic member 200, one end abuts against the first end 123 of the oil passage 120. Thus, the elastic member 200 and the oil passage 120 together limit the sealing member 300. The sealing member 300 can close the connection between the oil storage tank 110 and the oil supply tank 130. Specifically, the sealing member 300 closes at least one of the oil inlet 140 and the oil supply port 150. Thus, the e-liquid in the oil supply tank 130 will not flow into the oil storage tank 110, and the atomizing device 100 will not leak e-liquid. The sealing element 300 can move toward the second end 124 of the oil passage 120 (that is, the end of the oil passage 120 away from the avoidance passage 125) to open the closure of the oil storage tank 110 and the oil supply tank 130 (that is, at least one of the oil inlet 140 and the oil supply port 150).
[0038] Please see Figure 1 , Figures 3 to 5 The first end 123 of the oil passage 120 is provided with a bypass passage 125 connected to the oil passage 120.
[0039] Please see Figures 3 to 5 The electronic cigarette 10 proposed in this application may include an electronic control device 400. The electronic control device 400 is detachably connected to the atomizing device 100, and the electronic control device 400 is used to connect to the sealing member 300 to push the sealing member 300 to move.
[0040] Please see Figures 3 to 5 The electronic control device 400 may include a mounting base 410 and a connecting post 420 protruding from the surface of the mounting base 410. One end of the connecting post 420, away from the mounting base 410, is inserted into the clearance channel 125 to move the sealing member 300. The connecting post 420 can maintain a seal with the oil passage 120. Thus, the sealing member 300 can be pushed by the connecting post 420 toward the second end 124 of the oil passage 120 (i.e., the end of the oil passage 120 away from the clearance channel 125) to open the closure of at least one of the oil inlet 140 and the oil supply port 150; and, during the movement of the sealing member 300, the connecting post 420 remains sealed with the clearance channel 125, preventing e-liquid leakage from the clearance channel 125. The connection between the connecting post 420 and the clearance channel 125 also serves to position and guide the connection between the atomizing device 100 and the electronic control device 400.
[0041] The electronic cigarette 10 of this application achieves both the assembly of the atomizing device 100 and the electronic control device 400, and the filling of the e-liquid reservoir 110, through a single operation step. Simultaneously, the sealing component 300 moves a certain distance to open the e-liquid reservoir 110 for filling. The e-liquid flow process is easy to control, and during the movement of the sealing component 300, the clearance channel 125 remains sealed by the connecting column 420, preventing e-liquid leakage during the flow process. Therefore, the electronic cigarette 10 of this application is easy to assemble and less prone to leakage.
[0042] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, when one end of the sealing member 300 abuts against the oil passage 120, the sealing member 300 and the avoidance passage 125 are sealed together. Therefore, the sealing member 300 effectively seals the connection between the oil passage 120 and the avoidance passage 125.
[0043] Please see Figure 5 In other embodiments, when one end of the sealing member 300 abuts against the oil passage 120, the sealing member 300 and the oil passage 120 are sealed together, and the sealing member 300 is recessed to form a connecting groove 310, which is used to connect the connecting post 420. Thus, the sealing member 300 and the connecting post 420 can have a better connection effect.
[0044] The electronic cigarette 10 may include a sealing ring, which is fitted over the connecting post 420 to seal the wall of the connection clearance channel 125. The sealing ring improves the sealing performance between the connecting post 420 and the clearance channel 125. The sealing ring may be made of elastic materials such as silicone, plastic, or rubber.
[0045] Please see Figure 2 The number of clearance channels 125 can be at least two, and the number of connecting posts 420 is equal to the number of clearance channels 125 and corresponds one-to-one with the at least two clearance channels 125. The connection of at least two clearance channels 125 and at least two connecting posts 420 plays a role in positioning and guiding the connection between the atomizing device 100 and the electronic control device 400.
[0046] The thrust exerted by the elastic element 200 on the sealing element 300 can be greater than or equal to the gravity acting on the sealing element 300. Therefore, regardless of the atomizing device 100's position, the elastic element 200 can remain in a position that closes at least one of the oil inlet 140 and the oil supply port 150, thus ensuring good sealing of the atomizing device 100.
[0047] Please see Figures 1 to 5The elastic element 200 can be a spring, and the electronic cigarette 10 can include a first guide element 500, which can be disposed within the elastic element 200. One end of the first guide element 500 is connected to the sealing element 300. Thus, the first guide element 500 can effectively limit the compression of the spring, preventing the spring from bending undesirably when compressed by the sealing element 300.
[0048] Please see Figure 1 The electronic cigarette 10 includes a second guide member 600, which is disposed within the elastic member 200. One end of the second guide member 600 is connected to the second end 124 of the oil passage 120, and the other end of the second guide member 600 can be sleeved with the end of the first guide member 500 away from the blocking member 300. The second guide member 600 can guide the movement of the blocking member 300, enhance the limiting and guiding effect of spring compression, and prevent the first guide member 500 from directly impacting the wall of the oil passage 120, thereby improving the protection of the oil passage 120. One end of either the first guide member 500 or the second guide member 600 can be recessed to form a groove, and the other end can be adapted to the groove, or the other end can be provided with a protrusion adapted to the groove.
[0049] 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.
