Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a smoking appliance, and more particularly to an electronic cigarette.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Electronic cigarette is an electronic product that imitates cigarettes, and has the same appearance, taste and feeling as cigarettes. It is a kind of product that can be used by users after the containing nicotine is turned into steam by means of atomization and so on. Because of its good portability, no open fire and environmental protection, electronic cigarettes are favored by many smokers.

An electronic cigarette generally includes an atomizing assembly, a power supply assembly and a housing. The atomizing assembly mentioned above can heat the atomizing liquid stored in the atomizing assembly after electrification, thereby generating aerosol that can be directly sucked by the user. The battery assembly provides electric energy to the atomizing assembly, and the housing is used to accommodate the atomizing assembly and the battery assembly.

The liquid in the traditional atomizer is in contact with the outside air, which will lead to the loss and change of the taste for too long. At the same time, there will be oil leakage in the atomizer. Therefore, there are some atomizers on the market that use oil leakage prevention structure, but the oil will still soak the oil guide cotton in the atomization core. If the cotton wool is soaked in fume for a long time, it will affect the oil guiding performance of the oil guide cotton. Moreover, the existing oil leakage prevention structure on the market is complicated to assemble and high in cost.

Sealing structures in the existing market are assembled and synthesized by several parts, and even some need to be glued to seal without leakage. This makes the operation process cumbersome and easy to be affected by artificial emotions and operation methods, with high cost and increased instability factors.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, it is an object of the present invention to provide an electronic cigarette, which completely isolates the fume liquid from the external air, guarantees the pure taste of the fume, and can better solve the oil leakage. At the same time, the quality of the product is better protected, so that the battery is not affected by the leakage, and the necessary atomization core is assembled by the electronic fume. With conductive bushing, the switch function can be realized, the cost of purchasing electronic switch can be reduced, and the assembly process can be simplified.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the electronic cigarette comprises a housing, a battery disposed in the housing, a fixer arranged in the housing and above the battery, a step groove disposed on the fixer, a mic plate connected to the side of the fixer near the battery and electrically connected with the positive electrode of the battery, a conductive sleeve connected to the side of the mic plate far from the fixer, a buckle strip formed on the top of the housing, a securing part formed at the bottom of the atomizing cover and matching with the step groove on the securing part, a clamping groove arranged at the junction of the atomizing cover matching with the securing part, a top sealing ring disposed on the top of the atomizing cover, a bottom sealing ring having a groove arranged on the inner wall of the securing part, an atomizing core pipe extended outward through the top sealing ring, and the bottom end inserted in the slot of the bottom sealing ring. Further, the bottom end of the atomizing core pipe is opposite to the conductive sleeve, and an oil inlet is arranged on the atomizing core pipe, a silica gel gasket is arranged at the bottom of the atomizing core pipe and matches with the slot on the bottom sealing ring, and a heating wire is arranged in the atomizing core pipe. The positive and negative pins of the heating wire extend outward through the silica gel gasket. The negative pins of the heating wire are electrically connected with the output negative polar line of the mic plate, and the negative pins of the heating wire are electrically connected with the atomizing core pipe.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the positive and negative electrodes of the battery are conductive when the atomizing core pipe is offset with the conductive sleeve, and the top seal ring is wrapped into the oil hole when the atomizing core pipe is separated from the conductive sleeve.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the fixer is made of plastic material.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the bottom of the housing comprises a breathing hole.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the top of the atomizing cover comprises a silica gel sleeve matched with the atomizing core pipe.

Further, the bottom end of the atomizing core pipe 9 is opposite to the conductive sleeve 5, and an oil inlet is arranged on the atomizing core pipe 9, a silica gel gasket 10 is arranged at the bottom of the atomizing core pipe 9 and matches with the slot on the bottom sealing ring 8, and a heating wire 11 is arranged in the atomizing core pipe 9.

The positive and negative pins of the heating wire 11 extend outward through the silica gel gasket 10. The negative pins of the heating wire 11 are electrically connected with the negative electrode of the mic plate 4, and the negative pins of the heating wire 11 are electrically connected with the atomizing core pipe 9.

In the embodiment, the atomizing cover 6 and the top are dense. The chamber formed by sealing ring 7 and bottom sealing ring 8 is used for the storage of fume, and the top of atomizing cover 6 is provided with an oil injection port.

In the embodiment, the positive and negative electrodes of battery 2 are conducting when the atomized core tube 9 is offset with the conductive sleeve 5, and the top seal ring 7 is wrapped in the oil inlet hole when the atomized core tube 9 is separated from the conductive sleeve 5.

In the embodiment, fixer 3 is made of plastic material, and the bottom of the housing 1 is provided with a breathing hole 12 to heat the battery 2. Further, the top of the atomizing cover 6 is provided with a silica gel sleeve 13 matched with the atomizing core pipe 9 to improve the sealing performance of the atomizing core pipe 9 and the atomizing cover 6.

In the embodiment, a light guide column 14 is embedded on the outer housing 1.

During assembling the electronic cigarette, the buckle strip 17 is clipped into the clamping groove 15, and the securing part 18 and the step groove 16 are embedded in place to complete the butt joint of the atomizing cover 6 and the outer housing 1. At this time, there is a gap between the fixer 3 and the bottom sealing ring 8.

When assembling the atomizing assembly, only the top of the atomizing core pipe 9 is installed on the top sealing ring 7, and the bottom of the atomizing core pipe 9 is inserted on the bottom. In the groove of seal ring 8, the top seal ring 7 seals the oil inlet of atomizing core pipe 9 under non-working condition. Fume liquid can be completely separated from external air; at the same time, fume oil can be isolated and sealed in addition to oil cotton, ensuring product quality and eliminating oil leakage, so that the number of assemblies is small, the cost of material and manual assembly is low.
