Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic cigarette technology, and specifically to an e-cigarette that uses a motor to drive the refilling of e-liquid. Background Technology

[0002] E-cigarettes typically store e-liquid in a bottle; the bottle is opened by assembling it with the rest of the e-cigarette, allowing the e-liquid to flow into the reservoir and supply the atomizer coil. However, in existing designs, the e-liquid in the bottle primarily relies on its own weight or viscosity to enter the reservoir; this can easily lead to problems such as untimely e-liquid supply. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide an e-cigarette with e-liquid that is refilled by a motor; it can promptly press the e-liquid from the e-liquid bottle into the e-liquid storage cotton, avoiding the problem caused by the e-liquid storage cotton being unable to supply e-liquid to the atomizer core in a timely manner.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is:

[0005] The e-cigarette with e-liquid supplied by a motor includes an e-liquid bottle; the e-liquid bottle includes a tubular e-liquid compartment; an e-liquid dispensing mechanism is provided at the top of the e-liquid compartment, and after the e-liquid bottle is assembled with the rest of the e-cigarette, the e-liquid in the e-liquid bottle can flow out from the e-liquid dispensing mechanism; a motor silicone seal is provided at the bottom of the e-liquid compartment, and a motor drive mechanism is provided on the outside of the motor silicone seal; the motor drive mechanism can drive the motor silicone seal to move into the e-liquid compartment to press the e-liquid into the e-liquid dispensing mechanism.

[0006] The oil bottle dispensing mechanism includes an oil bottle support, an oil bottle cap, a steel ball, and a spring; the middle part of the oil bottle support is funnel-shaped; the oil bottle support is placed on top of the oil bottle compartment with the bottom of the funnel facing the motor silicone; the oil bottle cap is set on the outside of the oil bottle support; the steel ball is placed at the bottom of the funnel shape of the oil bottle support; one end of the spring holds the steel ball, and the other part is set on the oil bottle cap.

[0007] The oil bottle cap has a spring shaft arranged in a radial support manner along the central axis; the spring is sleeved on the spring shaft; one end of the spring abuts against the steel ball, and the other end abuts against the radial support.

[0008] The motor drive mechanism includes a motor, a rotating shaft, a rotating threaded sleeve, and a motor bracket; the motor is located at the axial center position on the outside of the motor silicone, and the motor output is connected to the rotating shaft; the top of the rotating shaft is threadedly connected to the bottom center of the motor bracket through the rotating threaded sleeve; the motor bracket is assembled as one piece with the motor silicone on the outside of the motor silicone.

[0009] This invention uses a motor-driven shaft to rotate and lift the motor via a rotating threaded sleeve and motor bracket, pressing the motor silicone into the oil bottle compartment. Under oil pressure, a spring compresses, causing a steel ball to detach from the funnel-shaped bottom of the oil bottle bracket, thus opening a channel for e-liquid to flow from the oil bottle compartment into the space above the bracket. The e-liquid enters the space between the oil bottle bracket and the oil bottle cap bracket, and then into the wicking coil. The opening of the aforementioned steel ball is entirely controlled by the motor's operation; therefore, by activating the motor after a set program of vaping for a certain period, e-liquid can be supplied to the wicking coil in a timely manner, preventing the coil from burning.

[0014] The following embodiments are descriptions of specific implementations of the present utility model. These descriptions are intended to facilitate understanding of the technical solutions of this application by those skilled in the art and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the technical solutions of the present utility model. All equivalent transformations that can be obtained from the description of the embodiments of the present utility model should be within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0015] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the electronic cigarette of this utility model includes an oil bottle; the oil bottle includes a tubular oil bottle compartment 1, an oil dispensing mechanism 2, a motor silicone 3, and a motor drive mechanism 4.

[0016] An oil dispensing mechanism 1 is installed at the top of the oil bottle compartment 1. The oil dispensing mechanism 1 includes an oil bottle support 21, an oil bottle cap 22, a steel ball 23, and a spring 24. The oil bottle support 21 is funnel-shaped in the middle. The oil bottle support 21 is placed at the top of the oil bottle compartment 1 with its funnel-shaped bottom facing the motor silicone 3. The oil bottle cap 22 is installed on the outside of the oil bottle support 21. The steel ball 23 is placed at the bottom of the funnel shape of the oil bottle support 21. One end of the spring 24 abuts against the steel ball 23, and the other part is set on the oil bottle cap 22. Specifically, a spring shaft 221 is arranged radially in the central axis inside the oil bottle cap 22. The spring 24 is sleeved on the spring shaft 221. One end of the spring 24 abuts against the steel ball 23, and the other end abuts against the radial support.

[0017] A motor silicone sealant 3 is installed at the bottom of the oil bottle compartment 1, which seals the bottom of the oil bottle compartment. A motor drive mechanism 4 is installed on the outside of the motor silicone sealant 3. The motor drive mechanism 4 includes a motor 41, a rotating shaft 42, a rotating threaded sleeve 43, and a motor bracket 44. The motor 41 is located at the axial center position on the outside of the motor silicone sealant 3, and the output of the motor 41 is connected to the rotating shaft 42. The top of the rotating shaft 42 is threadedly connected to the bottom center of the motor bracket 44 through the rotating threaded sleeve 43. The motor bracket 44 is assembled as a whole with the motor silicone sealant 3 on the outside of the motor silicone sealant 3.

[0018] After the oil bottle is assembled with the rest of the electronic cigarette, the aluminum foil (or other sealing film) sealing the oil bottle cap 22 is punctured; when there is e-liquid between the oil bottle support 21 and the oil bottle cap 22 of the oil dispensing mechanism 2, the e-liquid can flow out from the oil dispensing mechanism 2.

[0019] like Figure 2 As shown, during the vaping process, the motor 41 is activated after a set vaping time according to a pre-defined program. For example, the number of vaping cycles or the duration can be counted. Once a set value is reached, the motor 41 is activated and its operating time is set. When the motor 41 has operated for the set time, it stops, and the count is reset to zero and restarted after the motor 41 starts working. The motor 41 is activated again after the set vaping time continues, and this program continues until all the e-liquid in the bottle is consumed. This setting can be controlled by a program, and those skilled in the art can easily set it. This control program is not the technical solution protected by this application.

[0020] When motor 41 operates, the rotating shaft 42 rotates, and the rotating threaded sleeve 43 drives the motor bracket 44 to compress inward. The motor silicone 3 is compressed and moved inward, squeezing the e-liquid in the e-liquid tank 1. During this process, the steel ball 23 is pushed by the oil pressure, creating a gap between the funnel-shaped bottom of the e-liquid tank 21 and the steel ball 23. This allows the e-liquid to be forced between the e-liquid tank 21 and the e-liquid cap 22, and then flows into the e-liquid reservoir 5 to lubricate the atomizer coil, ensuring that the coil does not burn during vaping. After a certain amount of e-liquid has flowed in and the oil pressure has decreased, the steel ball 23 returns to its original position under the action of the spring, closing the funnel-shaped bottom of the e-liquid tank 21, and waiting for the motor to operate again.

[0021] The attached figure shows an example of an electronic cigarette structure for the purpose of illustrating the technical solution of this utility model; however, this utility model is not limited to the structure of the remaining parts of the electronic cigarette shown in the figure; the remaining parts are unrelated to the implementation of the aforementioned solution and will not be described in detail here.
