Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic cigarette technology, and in particular to a cartridge locking structure. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the fixation of e-cigarette cartridges in related technologies is not very secure and they are prone to loosening. Furthermore, the process of assembling and disassembling cartridges is quite cumbersome. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a cartridge locking structure that can lock the cartridge while simplifying the assembly and disassembly of the cartridge.

[0004] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: The first aspect of this application provides a cartridge locking structure, comprising: a mouthpiece; a housing assembly including a first outer shell, an arc-shaped rib, and a second outer shell, wherein the mouthpiece is disposed on the first outer shell, the first outer shell is disposed on the second outer shell, the arc-shaped rib is disposed on the second outer shell, the second outer shell has a cartridge cavity, the first outer shell has a slot, and the arc-shaped rib is embedded in the slot; and a cartridge is disposed within the cartridge cavity.

[0005] The housing assembly includes a plurality of the aforementioned arc-shaped ribs, each of which is disposed at intervals on the second outer shell.

[0006] The second outer casing also has a limiting groove.

[0007] The housing assembly further includes a snap-fit ​​strip disposed within the first housing and used to be embedded in the limiting groove.

[0008] The cross-sectional structure of the cartridge is the same as the cross-sectional structure of the cartridge cavity.

[0009] It also includes electrodes disposed on the cartridge.

[0010] The first outer shell has a plurality of slots, and the slots are spaced apart from each other.

[0011] The number of slots is the same as the number of arc-shaped bone positions.

[0012] The first outer shell also has through holes.

[0013] The number of cartridges is the same as the number of cartridge chambers.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following advantages: Insert the cartridge into the cartridge compartment, then align the slot on the first outer shell with the curved rib on the second outer shell and fasten it. This completes the cartridge installation. The curved rib and slot lock the cartridge securely, preventing it from easily coming loose. Furthermore, when removing the cartridge, the curved rib allows for easy removal by pulling the first outer shell outwards, allowing the rib to easily disengage from the slot.

While embodiments of this application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that this application may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make this application more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of this application to those skilled in the art.

[0018] It should be understood that although the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., may be used in this application to describe various information, this information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from one another. For example, without departing from the scope of this application, first information may also be referred to as second information, and similarly, second information may also be referred to as first information. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0019] Unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0020] Currently, the securing of e-cigarette cartridges is not very stable and they are prone to loosening. Furthermore, the process of installing and removing cartridges is quite cumbersome.

[0021] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a cartridge locking structure that can lock the cartridge securely while simplifying the assembly and disassembly process.

[0022] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 A cartridge locking structure includes: a mouthpiece 100, a housing assembly 200, and a cartridge 300. The housing assembly 200 includes a first outer shell 210, an arc-shaped rib 220, and a second outer shell 230. The mouthpiece 100 is disposed on the first outer shell 210, the first outer shell 210 is disposed on the second outer shell 230, the arc-shaped rib 220 is disposed on the second outer shell 230, the second outer shell 230 has a cartridge cavity 231, the first outer shell 210 has a slot 211, and the arc-shaped rib 220 is embedded in the slot 211. The cartridge 300 is disposed in the cartridge cavity 231.

[0024] It should be noted that the cartridge 300 is inserted into the cartridge compartment 231, and then the slot 211 of the first outer shell 210 is aligned with the arc-shaped rib 220 on the second outer shell 230 to fasten it, thus completing the installation of the cartridge 300. Furthermore, the engagement of the arc-shaped rib 220 with the slot 211 secures the cartridge 300, making it difficult for it to loosen. In addition, when it is necessary to remove the cartridge 300, because the rib is arc-shaped, pulling the first outer shell 210 outwards allows the arc-shaped rib 220 to easily disengage from the slot 211, which is very convenient.

[0025] Preferably, the housing assembly 200 includes a plurality of arc-shaped ribs 220, each arc-shaped rib 220 being spaced apart on the second outer shell 230. Preferably, the first outer shell 210 has a plurality of slots 211, each slot 211 being spaced apart. Preferably, the number of slots 211 is the same as the number of arc-shaped ribs 220.

[0026] It should be noted that the arc-shaped bone position 220 and the slot 211 include, but are not limited to, three.

[0027] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, a limiting groove 232 is also provided on the second housing 230. Specifically, the housing assembly 200 also includes a snap-fit ​​strip 240, which is disposed inside the first housing 210 and is used to be embedded in the limiting groove 232.

[0028] It should be noted that by setting the limiting groove 232 and the snap-fit ​​strip 240, the first housing 210 and the second housing 230 can be positioned and installed, and the stability between the first housing 210 and the second housing 230 can also be increased.

[0029] See Figure 2 In one embodiment, the cross-sectional structure of the cartridge 300 is the same as the cross-sectional structure of the cartridge cavity 231.

[0030] It should be noted that by conforming the shape of the cartridge cavity 231 to the cartridge 300, the cartridge 300 can be better positioned.

[0031] See Figure 4 In one embodiment, an electrode 400 is also included, which is disposed on the cartridge 300. It is understood that the electrode 400 is disposed at the bottom of the cartridge 300 and is used to energize the cartridge 300 to generate smoke.

[0032] See Figure 3 In one embodiment, a through hole 212 is also provided on the first outer casing 210. It can be understood that, on the one hand, in order to improve the grip, and on the other hand, to provide space for the fingers to pull out the first outer casing 210, the present application provides a through hole 212 on the first outer casing 210.

[0033] Preferably, the number of cartridges 300 is the same as the number of cartridge chambers 231.
