Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic hookahs, and in particular to a perforated thick-film heating element for an electronic hookah and an electronic hookah. Background Technology

[0002] Electronic hookahs primarily work by heating tobacco materials with a heating element to produce smoke for the consumer to inhale. Current heating elements are generally made of thick-film materials, ensuring rapid heat generation to guarantee complete combustion of the tobacco. The consumer then inhales the resulting smoke for enjoyment. However, when the high-temperature smoke from the heated tobacco mixture is inhaled by the consumer, the resulting temperature shock from the cold air creates a significant negative impact on the smoking experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a perforated thick film heating element for electronic hookahs that can reduce thermal shock and improve the smoking experience, as well as an electronic hookah.

[0004] This utility model discloses a perforated thick film heating element for an electronic water pipe, comprising a thick film substrate, an insulating layer disposed on one surface of the thick film substrate, and a resistive circuit disposed on the insulating layer. The thick film substrate has a plurality of perforations that extend through the resistive circuit, and the plurality of perforations are distributed on the thick film substrate in an outward expansion manner with a point in the thick film substrate as the center.

[0005] Furthermore, the thick film substrate is a regular polygon or a circle, and a plurality of the perforations are distributed on the thick film substrate, expanding outward from the geometric center of the thick film substrate.

[0006] Furthermore, when the thick film substrate is circular, a plurality of the perforations are arranged in a ring-shaped interval along the radial direction of the thick film substrate, and the perforations located on the circumference of each ring are equally spaced.

[0007] Furthermore, the distances from the center of the perforation located on the circumference of different annular rings of the thick film substrate to the center of the thick film substrate are arranged in an arithmetic sequence.

[0008] Furthermore, the resistor circuit includes an extension portion spaced apart from the perforation along the radial direction of the thick film substrate, and a connecting portion extending along the radial direction of the thick film substrate, wherein the ends of adjacent extension portions along the radial direction of the thick film substrate are connected through the connecting portion.

[0009] Furthermore, adjacent connecting portions located on the same circumference are spaced apart by the perforations.

[0010] Furthermore, when the thick film substrate is a regular polygon, the perforations are arranged radially and are equidistantly spaced along each extension path.

[0011] Furthermore, a power crimp terminal extends outward from the edge of the thick film substrate, and the end of the resistor circuit extends to the power crimp terminal and has a pair of pads at the power crimp terminal.

[0012] Furthermore, the linewidth of the resistor circuit is 0.5 to 10 millimeters.

[0013] This utility model also discloses an electronic water pipe, including the above-mentioned perforated electronic water pipe thick film heating element.

[0014] The perforated thick-film heating element and electronic hookah provided by this utility model, by having a plurality of perforations through the thick-film substrate, allow the air flowing through the perforations to be heated by the resistive circuit on the thick-film substrate before entering the consumer's mouth. This ensures that the temperature is roughly consistent with the temperature of the smoke produced by heating the tobacco material, thereby reducing thermal shock and greatly enhancing the consumer's smoking experience. Therefore, the perforated thick-film heating element and electronic hookah provided by this utility model are highly favored by consumers. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The specific embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the description of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0021] The terms “include,” “comprising,” or any other variation thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, which includes not only the elements listed but also other elements not expressly listed.

[0022] Example 1: Please see Figure 1 This utility model discloses a perforated thick film heating element for an electronic water pipe, including a thick film substrate 10, an insulating layer 11 disposed on one surface of the thick film substrate 10, and a resistive circuit 20 disposed on the insulating layer 11. The thick film substrate 10 has a plurality of perforations 30 through it at intervals between the resistive circuits 20. The plurality of perforations 30 are distributed on the thick film substrate 10 in an outward expansion manner with a point in the thick film substrate 10 as the center.

[0023] In this embodiment, the thick film substrate 10 is circular, and a plurality of perforations 30 are distributed on the thick film substrate 10, expanding outward from the geometric center (i.e., the center of the circle). The perforations 30 are arranged in a ring-shaped interval along the radial direction of the thick film substrate 10, and the perforations 30 on the circumference of each ring are equidistant. Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the distance between adjacent perforations 30 on the circumference of each ring of the thick film substrate 10 is greater than the diameter of the perforation 30; the distances from the center of the perforations 30 on different rings of the thick film substrate 10 to the center of the thick film substrate 10 are arranged in an arithmetic progression.

[0024] More specifically, the resistor circuit 20 includes an arc-shaped extension 21 spaced apart from the perforations 30 along the radial direction of the thick film substrate 10, and a connecting portion 22 extending along the radial direction of the thick film substrate 10. The ends of adjacent extensions 21 along the radial direction of the thick film substrate 10 are connected by the connecting portion 22. Furthermore, the extensions 21 extend along the circumferential direction of the thick film substrate 10. Adjacent connecting portions 22 on the same circumference of the thick film substrate 10 are spaced apart from the perforations 30. In this embodiment, adjacent connecting portions 22 on the same circumference of the thick film substrate 10 are spaced apart by one perforation 30.

[0025] Please continue reading. Figure 1 A power crimp terminal 12 extends outward from the edge of the thick film substrate 10, and the end of the resistor circuit 20 extends to the power crimp terminal 12, where a pair of pads 23 are provided. By having the power crimp terminal 12 extend outward from the edge of the thick film substrate 10, and the pads 23 at the end of the resistor circuit 20 located at the power crimp terminal 12, the heating circuitry is ensured to cover the entire thick film substrate 10, thereby maximizing the heat generation.

[0026] Furthermore, a pair of fixed ends 13 extend outward from the edge of the thick film substrate 10, and each fixed end 13 has a through-hole 131. In this embodiment, the thick film substrate 10 is based on the vertical center line of the line connecting the centers of the pair of pads 23, and the pair of fixed ends 13 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the thick film substrate 10. More specifically, the power crimping end 12 and the pair of fixed ends 13 located at the edge of the thick film substrate 10 are distributed on two opposite semicircles, and one power crimping end 12 and the pair of fixed ends 13 are arranged in three equal parts along the circumference of the thick film substrate 10. It can also be understood that the angle α between the center of the fixed hole 131 on the pair of fixed ends 13 and the center of the thick film substrate 10 is 120°.

[0027] The thick film substrate 10 is mounted on the electronic hookah through the fixing end 13 and fixed to the electronic hookah through the fixing hole 131 with fasteners. In this embodiment, the thick film substrate 10 is fixed to the electronic hookah through a pair of fixing ends 13 and a power crimping end 12 abuts against the electronic hookah, so that it is installed and fixed to the electronic hookah in three equal parts along the circumference of the thick film substrate 10, which can maintain the stability of the thick film substrate 10.

[0028] Example 2: Please see Figure 2This utility model discloses another type of perforated thick film heating element for electronic water pipes. Its general structure is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1. The difference is that the thick film substrate 10 also has a perforation 30 at its center. Therefore, the arrangement of the perforations 30 can be described as follows: one of the perforations 30 is located at the center of the thick film substrate 10, and the other perforations 30 are arranged in a ring-shaped interval along the radial direction of the thick film substrate 10 with the central perforation 30 as the center. The perforations 30 on the circumference of each ring are equally spaced.

[0029] Example 3: Please see Figure 3 This utility model discloses another type of perforated electronic water pipe thick film heating element, including a thick film substrate 10, an insulating layer 11 disposed on one surface of the thick film substrate 10, and a resistive circuit 20 disposed on the insulating layer 11. The thick film substrate 10 is provided with a plurality of perforations 30 at intervals between the resistive circuits 20. The plurality of perforations 30 are distributed on the thick film substrate 10 in an outward expansion manner with a point in the thick film substrate 10 as the center.

[0030] In this embodiment, the thick film substrate 10 is square, and the perforations 30 are arranged radially, with the perforations 30 on each extension path being equidistantly spaced. In other embodiments, the thick film substrate 10 may also be a regular pentagon, regular hexagon, or other shape, provided that the thick film substrate 10 has a plurality of perforations 30 extending through the resistor circuit 20, and that the plurality of perforations 30 are distributed on the thick film substrate 10 in a manner that expands outward from a point on the thick film substrate 10. No particular limitation is made here.

[0031] More specifically, the resistor circuit 20 includes an extension 21 extending along the side length direction of the thick film substrate 10, and a connecting portion 22 disposed perpendicular to the extension of the extension 21 of the thick film substrate 10, wherein the ends of two adjacent extensions 21 are connected by the connecting portion 22. Furthermore, each connecting portion 22 is disposed between two adjacent through holes 30.

[0032] Please continue reading. Figure 3 The thick film substrate 10 has a power crimp terminal 12 extending outward from the middle of one side. The end of the resistor circuit 20 extends to the power crimp terminal 12 and has a pair of pads 23 at the power crimp terminal 12. By having the power crimp terminal 12 extend outward from the edge of the thick film substrate 10, and the pads 23 at the end of the resistor circuit 20 are located at the power crimp terminal 12, it is ensured that the heating circuitry covers the entire thick film substrate 10, thereby maximizing the heat generation.

[0033] Furthermore, a fixed end 13 extends outward from each of the two sides of the thick film substrate 10 adjacent to the side where the power supply crimp terminal 12 is located. Each fixed end 13 has a through-hole 131. In this embodiment, the thick film substrate 10 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fixed ends 13 with the vertical center line of the line connecting the centers of the pair of pads 23 as a reference. In a preferred embodiment, the distance between the center of the line connecting the pair of pads 23 and the distance between the lines connecting any two points of the two fixed holes 131 is consistent, i.e., they are distributed in an equilateral triangle.

[0034] More specifically, in Embodiments 1, 2, and 3 of this application, the line width of the resistor circuit 20 is set to 0.5–10 mm. The specific line width can be set to 0.5 mm, 1 mm, 2 mm, 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 5 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, etc., designed according to the specific heat output required by the thick-film heating element of the perforated electronic hookah. In the preferred embodiments, two schemes employ a 5 mm and 8 mm design.

[0035] This utility model also discloses an electronic water pipe, including the above-mentioned perforated electronic water pipe thick film heating element.

[0036] The perforated electronic hookah thick film heating element and electronic hookah provided by this utility model, by having a plurality of perforations through the thick film substrate, allow the air flowing through the perforations to be heated by the resistive circuit on the thick film substrate before entering the consumer's mouth. This allows the temperature to be roughly consistent with the temperature of the smoke produced by heating the tobacco material, thereby reducing thermal shock and greatly improving the consumer's smoking experience.

[0037] Furthermore, by extending the power crimping terminal 12 outward from the edge of the thick film substrate 10, and with the solder pad 23 at the end of the resistor circuit 20 located at the power crimping terminal 12, the heating circuit is ensured to cover the entire thick film substrate 10, thereby maximizing the heating capacity and greatly improving the heating efficiency. Therefore, the perforated thick film heating element and electronic water pipe provided by this utility model are highly favored by consumers.

[0038] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
