The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.
[0021] In this invention, the reference to "embodiment" means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a mutually exclusive, independent, or alternative embodiment to other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described in this invention can be combined with other embodiments.
[0022] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] like Figure 1-5 As shown, an electronic cigarette's gas adjustment switch structure includes an electronic cigarette base 1 and a gas adjustment switch 2. The electronic cigarette base 1 is used for a sealed and fixed connection with the outer shell of the electronic cigarette. The gas adjustment switch 2 is slidably connected to the electronic cigarette base 1. The electronic cigarette base 1 is provided with an air inlet 11. The gas adjustment switch 2 can be connected to the air inlet 11. The gas adjustment switch 2 is used to seal part of the air inlet 11 or fully open the air inlet 11. By pushing the gas adjustment switch 2 to slide on the electronic cigarette base 1, part of the air inlet 11 can be sealed or the air inlet 11 can be fully opened, thereby changing the size of the air inlet 11 and achieving the purpose of adjusting the inhalation resistance.
[0024] In this embodiment, the gas regulating switch 2 is equipped with a locking structure that can slidably engage with the electronic cigarette base 1. This locking structure effectively holds the gas regulating switch 2 within the electronic cigarette base 1, ensuring stable operation. This gas regulating switch structure, by incorporating a locking structure on the gas regulating switch 2 and slidably engaging with the electronic cigarette base 1, effectively limits the sliding engagement between the gas regulating switch 2 and the electronic cigarette base 1. This eliminates the need for multiple components to limit the gas regulating switch 2, improving its airtightness and thus enhancing the stability and accuracy of the adjustment.
[0025] Specifically, the locking structure includes a buckle 21, which is set on the upper surface of the gas control switch 2. The lower surface of the electronic cigarette base 1 is provided with an adjustment hole 12. After the buckle 21 passes through the adjustment hole 12, it slides and engages with the electronic cigarette base 1. When the gas control switch 2 is pushed, the buckle 21 will slide on the adjustment hole 12, thereby causing one end of the gas control switch 2 to move closer to or further away from the air inlet 11, until the gas control switch 2 blocks part of the air inlet 11 or fully opens the air inlet 11, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the size of the air inlet 11.
[0026] In this embodiment, there are two latches 21, and the two latches 21 are symmetrically arranged on the upper surface of the gas regulating switch 2. In other embodiments, the engaging structure can also be other structures or devices capable of sliding engagement, and in other embodiments, the number of latches 21 can also be any other number.
[0027] In this embodiment, the buckle 21 and the gas regulating switch 2 are integrally formed; in other embodiments, the buckle 21 and the gas regulating switch 2 can also be two independent components, as long as they are fixedly connected.
[0028] The gas adjustment switch 2 is also equipped with a sealing silicone 3, which is slidably and sealingly connected to the end face of the electronic cigarette base 1. During the process of pushing the gas adjustment switch 2, the sealing silicone 3 slides on the electronic cigarette base 1; through the cooperation between the sealing silicone 3 and the electronic cigarette base 1, the sealing performance between the gas adjustment switch 2 and the electronic cigarette base 1 is improved, reducing the occurrence of air leakage and further enhancing the stability and accuracy of the gas adjustment switch 2.
[0029] In this embodiment, a locking block 22 is provided on the upper surface of the gas regulating switch 2, and a locking groove 31 is provided on the gas sealing silicone 3 at the corresponding position of the locking block 22. The locking block 22 engages with the corresponding locking groove 31. The gas sealing silicone 3 is limited and installed on the gas regulating switch 2 by the cooperation of the locking block 22 and the locking groove 31, which improves the stability of the structure, thereby facilitating assembly and improving efficiency.
[0030] The vapor adjustment switch structure of this electronic cigarette also includes a sealing silicone 4, which is sealed and snapped into the upper surface of the electronic cigarette base 1. A clearance groove 41 is provided at the corresponding position of the sealing silicone 4 and the buckle 21. During the process of pushing the vapor adjustment switch 2, the buckle 21 can move freely within the clearance groove 41. By setting the sealing silicone 4, the interior of the electronic cigarette base 1 can be sealed, improving the airtightness of the electronic cigarette base 1, thereby further improving the adjustment accuracy of the vapor adjustment switch 2.
[0031] The lower end surface of the electronic cigarette base 1 is provided with a sliding groove 13 that matches the width of the gas adjustment switch 2. The gas adjustment switch 2 slides in the sliding groove 13, and the side wall of the gas adjustment switch 2 can contact the side wall of the sliding groove 13. During assembly, the buckle 21 on the gas adjustment switch 2 is passed from bottom to top through the adjustment hole 12 until the buckle 21 engages with the electronic cigarette base 1. At this time, the gas adjustment switch 2 is precisely limited within the sliding groove 13. The sliding groove 13 can accommodate the gas adjustment switch 2, which can reduce the occurrence of accidental activation of the gas adjustment switch 2. At the same time, limiting the gas adjustment switch 2 through the sliding groove 13 can also improve the structural stability of the gas adjustment switch 2, thereby extending its service life.
[0032] To facilitate adjustment, an anti-slip protrusion 23 is provided on the lower surface of the gas regulating switch 2. The anti-slip protrusion 23 increases the friction between the gas regulating switch 2 and the palm, preventing slippage and improving the stability of adjustment. In other embodiments, the anti-slip protrusion 23 can also be replaced by protective protrusions, anti-slip grooves, etc.
[0033] Working principle:
[0034] When it is necessary to adjust the size of the air intake 11 of the electronic cigarette, the user can press the anti-slip protrusion 23 with their finger and then push the gas adjustment switch 2 to make the gas adjustment switch 2 slide in the sliding groove 13. At this time, the buckle 21 will slide in the adjustment hole 12, and the sealing silicone 3 will slide on the electronic cigarette base 1 until one end of the gas adjustment switch 2 seals part of the air intake 11 or fully opens the air intake 11, thereby changing the size of the air intake 11 and achieving the purpose of adjusting the air intake resistance.
[0035] The above-described specific embodiments are preferred embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the specific scope of this utility model. The scope of this utility model includes but is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. All equivalent changes made in accordance with this utility model are within the protection scope of this utility model.
