Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic cigarettes, and more specifically, to an electronic cigarette with a side-mounted cartridge replacement mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Electronic cigarettes are a common type of electronic product that simulates cigarettes. They mainly consist of a cartridge and a battery holder. The cartridge contains an atomizer, and the battery in the battery holder powers the atomizer, causing the atomizing components in the atomizer to heat up. This vaporizes the e-liquid in the atomizer to produce smoke, thus achieving the effect of simulating a cigarette and satisfying the smoking habit.

[0003] A search revealed an existing patent (publication number: CN116158554A) disclosing a side-mounted e-cigarette cartridge, comprising a cartridge assembly and a battery assembly. The cartridge assembly includes a cartridge shell and a cartridge cover, which are joined together. The cartridge shell also contains an oil storage tube with oil-absorbing cotton inside. A heating wire assembly is located within the oil-absorbing cotton for heating it. An intake port is located at the end of the cartridge shell. An air intake bracket with an air intake chamber is also provided within the cartridge shell, and oil-absorbing cotton is placed within the air intake chamber. This invention ensures that e-liquid condensate does not enter the battery assembly, effectively protecting it from damage. Furthermore, during transportation, the battery assembly and cartridge assembly can be isolated or separated, keeping the device in a de-energized state and effectively preventing self-starting of the e-cigarette, resulting in better performance.

[0004] Existing pod-based e-cigarettes typically use a design where the cartridge assembly is on top and the battery assembly is on the bottom. When the cartridge leaks, the battery assembly is easily damaged. At the same time, traditional e-cigarettes lack a temperature equalization module, resulting in high vapor temperature when inhaling quickly, leading to a poor user experience. Furthermore, although the patent document cited above protects the battery assembly by using a side-mounted cartridge replacement method, the cartridge assembly and battery assembly are only magnetically secured with magnets, making them prone to detachment during use and resulting in poor performance.

[0005] Therefore, an electronic cigarette with a side-mounted cartridge replacement is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the embodiments of this utility model provide an electronic cigarette with a side-swappable cartridge to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an electronic cigarette with a side-mounted cartridge, comprising a housing, a cartridge mounted on one side of the housing, and an insertion interface at the center of the top of the cartridge, a mouthpiece above the insertion interface on the top of the housing, a temperature equalization chamber inside the housing above the cartridge, an air intake chamber inside the housing below the cartridge, and oil-absorbing cotton inside the air intake chamber, a battery compartment inside the housing on one side of the cartridge, and a battery inside the battery compartment, and a trigger compartment inside the housing below the battery compartment, and a silicon microphone sensor installed inside the trigger compartment;

[0008] A sealing silicone sleeve is provided at the middle position of the bottom of the temperature equalization chamber, and a conduit passes through the sealing silicone sleeve. A connecting sleeve is fixed on the conduit above the sealing silicone sleeve, and a limiting seat is provided in the temperature equalization chamber outside the connecting sleeve. A top plate is horizontally installed in the temperature equalization chamber above the limiting seat, and through slots are opened on both sides inside the top plate. Guide plates are evenly arranged on both sides of the limiting seat, and the guide plates are staggered vertically.

[0009] Preferably, an adjustment groove is provided at the center of one end of the temperature equalization chamber, and an adjustment block is movably connected in the adjustment groove. The adjustment block and the connecting sleeve are integrally molded.

[0010] Preferably, an air inlet is provided at the center of the air inlet chamber, and the air inlet chamber is connected to the trigger chamber through an air passage. A silicone component is provided between the air passage and the silicone microphone sensor, and a through hole is provided on the silicone component.

[0011] Preferably, a connecting seat is provided on the side of the cartridge near the battery, and baffles are integrally provided on the housing at both ends of the connecting seat. Magnetic blocks are uniformly provided on the contact surface between the connecting seat and the housing, and magnetic grooves corresponding to the magnetic blocks are uniformly provided on the side of the housing near the connecting seat. The spacing between the baffles matches the thickness of the connecting seat.

[0012] Preferably, the top and bottom of the mouthpiece are evenly provided with air holes, and a dust cover is fitted on the outside of the mouthpiece. The mouthpiece is threadedly connected to the housing.

[0013] Preferably, the mouthpiece is provided with a filter core, which is formed by winding together a graphene membrane and cellulose acetate that are bonded together, and the outer diameter of the filter core matches the inner diameter of the mouthpiece.

[0014] Preferably, the contact surface between the connector and the housing is provided with an electrode, and a spring pin that cooperates with the spring pin is provided on the side of the housing near the connector, and the electrode and the spring pin are electrically connected.

[0015] Preferably, a receiving groove is provided at the center of both sides of the connecting seat, and an elastic block is hinged in the receiving groove. The elastic block and the receiving groove form an elastic reset structure through a spring. The center of the baffle is provided with a slot that matches the shape of the elastic block.

[0016] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] 1. Compared with existing technologies, this side-mounted e-cigarette with a replaceable cartridge features a temperature equalization chamber and a filter. During use, the smoke enters the temperature equalization chamber through a conduit, then flows through a guide channel formed by a guide plate, enters the space above the top plate through a slot, and finally enters the mouthpiece. After being filtered by the filter, it is inhaled by the user. This process extends the path of the smoke, and heat exchange also occurs when the smoke comes into contact with the guide plate, thereby achieving a good cooling effect and improving the user experience.

[0018] 2. Compared with the existing technology, this side-mounted cartridge-changing electronic cigarette is equipped with mutually cooperating elastic blocks and slots, magnetic blocks and magnetic slots. When the cartridge is assembled with the shell, the magnetic blocks and magnetic slots magnetically attract each other, and the elastic blocks are first stored in the receiving slots. When the cartridge is installed in place, the elastic blocks are reset under the action of the spring and locked into the slots, realizing the fixed connection between the cartridge and the shell, making the connection between the two more convenient and stable, and less likely to fall off.

[0019] 2. Compared with the existing technology, the temperature equalization chamber of this side-mounted e-cigarette is located inside the shell. After the e-cigarette cartridge and the shell are assembled, pressing down the adjustment block can drive the tube to be inserted into the cartridge's insertion interface, thus completing the connection between the temperature equalization chamber and the e-cigarette cartridge. That is, the temperature equalization chamber and the e-cigarette cartridge are separate designs, the temperature equalization chamber can be reused, and the replacement cost of the e-cigarette cartridge is low.
