This patent application claims priority of a Chinese Patent Application No. 201921758603.2, filed on Oct. 18, 2019 and titled “ELECTRONIC CIGARETTE”, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference.
The present disclosure relates to a technical field of electronic cigarettes, and in particular to an electronic cigarette which can be reused.
Electronic cigarettes appear because it produces a large amount of harmful gases when tobacco is burned, which causes greater harm to people and the environment. At present, most electronic cigarettes in the market have atomizers installed with the cartridges. Therefore, the cartridges will be discarded with the atomizers after the e-liquid is used up, which causes a waste of resources.
Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new electronic cigarette to solve the above problems.
An object of the present disclosure is to provide an electronic cigarette which can be reused.
In order to achieve the above object, the present disclosure adopts the following technical solution: an electronic cigarette including a cigarette pipe having a cavity, an atomizer device received in the cavity, and a cartridge detachably mounted to the atomizer device. The atomizer device is provided with a heating element. The cartridge includes a main body inserted in the cavity, a channel extending through the main body, an e-liquid storage member detachably installed in the main body, and an e-liquid carrier. The channel is in communication with the outside. The e-liquid carrier is received in the channel. The e-liquid carrier is capable of absorbing e-liquid in the e-liquid storage member. The heating element includes a heating end extending into the e-liquid carrier.
Compared with the prior art, the electronic cigarette disclosed in the present disclosure has the cartridge detachably installed in the atomizer device. After the e-liquid in the cartridge is used up, a new cartridge can be replaced to mate with the atomizer device. As a result, the atomizer device of the electronic cigarette can be reused, which avoids waste of resources.

The oil guiding portion 3161 is provided with a plurality of holes (not labeled) for allowing the e-liquid to seep out. The e-liquid in the e-liquid storage member 316 penetrates onto the e-liquid carrier 4 from the e-liquid storage member 316 through the holes.
In this embodiment, the atomizer device 2 and the cartridge 3 are manufactured separately and then assembled into the cigarette pipe 1. With this arrangement, the atomizer device 2 can be reused, which reduces costs and avoids waste of resources. The atomizer device 2 is entirely received in the cavity 10 of the cigarette pipe 1. The atomizer device 2 includes a needle-shaped heating element 21 which is capable of piercing the sealing film 34, a battery 22 for supplying power to the heating element 21 for heating, a circuit (not labeled) connecting the battery 22 and the heating element 21, a sensor (not labeled) for activating the battery 22, a fixing frame 24 for fixing the battery 22, the circuit, the sensor and the heating element 21, and a sealing member 6 fixed to the heating element 21 in order to achieve sealing between the atomizer device 2 and the cartridge 3. The heating element 21 includes a heating end 211 and a fixing end 212 connected to the heating end 211. The fixing end 212 fixes the heating element 21. The sealing member 6 is a sealing ring sleeved around the heating end 211 and embedded in the fixing end 212. This arrangement can prevent the e-liquid oozing from the cartridge 3 from leaking into the atomizer device 2, so that negative impact to the circuit and the battery 22 in the atomizer device 2 can be avoided. When the sensor receives a gas flow, the battery 22 starts to work. The atomizer device 2 supplies power to the heating element 21 through the circuit, and the heating end 211 of the heating element 21 heats the e-liquid on the e-liquid carrier 4 to atomize the e-liquid.
The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present disclosure and not to limit the technical solutions described in the present disclosure. The understanding of this specification should be based on those skilled in the art. Descriptions of directions, such as “front”, “back”, “left”, “right”, “top” and “bottom”, although they have been described in detail in the above-mentioned embodiments of the present disclosure, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the application, and all technical solutions and improvements that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the application should be covered by the claims of the application.
