Description

electronic cigarette

【Technical field】

This case is about an electronic cigarette, especially an electronic cigarette with a micro-pump structure.

【Background technique】

The use of electronic cigarettes, or so-called electronic cigarettes, is rapidly expanding as an alternative to traditional cigarettes that smoke real tobacco. As shown in Figures 1A and 1B, the electronic cigarette includes components that can be assembled together and then mounted within a first housing 1a and a second housing 1b. The first casing 1a and the second casing 1b can be a thin-walled metal tube, such as stainless steel, with a length and diameter similar to that of a traditional tobacco cigarette. The components of the electronic cigarette include a power supply device 2, a sensor 3, an atomizing part 4 and Liquid storage part 5. The power supply device 2 and the sensor 3 are installed in the first casing 1a, and the first casing 1a is provided with at least one area of the air inlet 1c close to the sensor 3 . The atomizing part 4 and the liquid storage part 5 are installed in the second housing 1b, the atomizing part 4 is fixedly supported by a bracket 7, and the atomizing part 4 includes an electric heater 41 and a liquid set on the electric heater 41. The permeating member 42 and a liquid conducting member 43 closely matched with the liquid permeating assembly 42, the electric heater 41 is a hollow structure; and the liquid storage member 5 is installed in the second casing 1b, and has a passage 51 through which the gas flows. , and there is a liquid storage container 52 on the periphery of the channel 51, and the liquid conduction member 43 is sleeved on the liquid permeable member 42, and the conducting part 431 of the liquid conduction member 43 is in contact with the liquid storage container 52. Therefore, the cigarette on the liquid storage container 52 The liquid is absorbed and penetrated into the liquid permeation member 42 . Between the atomizing part 4 and the sensor 3, there is an air intake and an electrical connection part 10 to form an air flow circuit for communicating with the channel 51 of the liquid storage part 5, so that the outside air can enter through at least one air inlet 1c, pass through the sensor 3 and then pass through. The electric heater 5 is introduced into the channel 51 of the liquid storage member 5 . In addition, the element of the electronic cigarette is further provided with an electrode ring 8, which is electrically connected to the two leads of the electric heater 41 respectively. The electrode ring 8 is electrically connected to the power supply device 2 through the connection between the air intake and the electrical connection part 10 and the sensor 3, and the sensor 3. The entire circuit is opened or closed according to the airflow, and the last suction nozzle 9 is assembled at one end of the second housing 1b and communicated with the channel 51 of the liquid storage part 5. When the user inhales, the gas inside the electronic cigarette flows. At this time, the sensor 3 is turned on, and the electric heater 41 is activated for heating. When the user stops inhaling, the gas stops flowing, and the sensor 3 closes the circuit so that the electric heater 41 stops heating. In this way, the cigarette liquid is penetrated from the liquid storage container 52 through the conducting part 431 of the liquid conducting member 43 to the liquid permeating member 42. When the user inhales air through the mouthpiece 9, the gas in the electronic cigarette flows, and the sensor 3 opens the entire electronic cigarette according to the air flow. The circuit, the power supply device 2 supplies power to the electrode ring 8 to start the electric heater 41 for heating, and the cigarette liquid penetrates into the liquid permeation part 42 and is atomized by the electric heater 41, and the user can inhale the liquid storage part 5 through the suction nozzle 9 The atomized smoke of the channel 51.

The cigarette liquid of the above-mentioned electronic cigarette is penetrated by the conducting portion 431 of the liquid conducting member 43 into the design of the liquid permeating member 42, and there will be the following problems:

1. Because the conducting part 431 of the liquid conducting member 43 cannot precisely control the penetration amount, the liquid penetration member 42 absorbs the cigarette liquid unevenly, resulting in the liquid penetration member 42 containing the part with a small amount of cigarette liquid, resulting in uneven droplets. , which is heated by the electric heater 41 to produce burnt smoke, and the smoker will feel uncomfortable in the mouthfeel.

2. Because the conducting part 431 of the liquid conducting part 43 cannot precisely control the amount of penetration, especially when the suction nozzle 9 is facing upwards, the cigarette liquid in the liquid storage container 52 around the channel 51 of the liquid storage part 5 cannot be completely controlled due to the downward gravity. The amount of the permeable liquid permeating member 42 is stopped, so that when the permeating liquid permeating member 42 is full, the cigarette liquid will drip to the bracket 7 and the air inlet and the electrical connection member 10 and then pass through the sensor 3 and then leak out from at least one air inlet 1c, cause oil seepage problems.

In addition, the existing atomized electronic cigarettes still have many problems and shortcomings, such as poor atomization, large droplets in the final atomized smoke, uneven smoke generated by droplets of different sizes, excessive moisture in the smoke, and poor taste. Under some conditions, the smoke is at a high temperature due to insufficient cooling and will cause discomfort. The above problems lead to a significant difference between real cigarettes and smokers' electronic cigarettes, which is not conducive for smokers to choose electronic cigarettes instead of real cigarettes.

In view of this, how to develop an electronic cigarette that can improve the above-mentioned deficiencies in the known electronic cigarette technology and develop an electronic cigarette that replaces the real cigarette is a problem that needs to be solved urgently at present.

However, how to position the stacked and combined structure without using locking elements (eg, screws, nuts, bolts, etc.) to lock and assemble for positioning is the main subject of the present invention. Therefore, the design of the valve cover body 62 and the outer cylinder 67 is adopted below.

The sleeve is inserted, and the bottom edge of the valve cover 62 has a chamfer 623 , and the outer diameter of the valve cover 62 is slightly larger than the size of the inner wall 671 of the outer cylinder 67 .

Therefore, referring to FIGS. 5A and 5B , the valve body 63 , the valve diaphragm 64 , the valve cavity seat 65 , and the actuator 66 are stacked in sequence and then placed in the inner wall 671 of the outer cylinder 67 , so that the entire stacked structure is supported on the inner wall 671 of the outer cylinder 67 . On the convex ring structure 672 of the outer cylinder 67, the outer diameter of the valve cover 62 is designed to be slightly larger than the size of the inner wall 671 of the outer cylinder 67, and the chamfer 623 can be smoothly introduced into the inner wall 671 of the outer cylinder 67, and tightly fit together. The positioning valve body 63 , the valve diaphragm 64 , the valve cavity seat 65 , and the actuator 66 are stacked in sequence to form the fluid delivery device 6 , and the actuator 66 can also be pressed in the hollow space of the inner wall 671 of the outer cylinder 67 . The electrical element 662 is subjected to an applied voltage to drive the vibrating plate 661 to perform vertical reciprocating motion to deform and resonate, so as to achieve a fluid delivery device 6 that does not require locking elements (eg, screws, nuts, bolts, etc.) to lock and assemble.

As shown in FIG. 11 , in the fluid conveying device 6 constructed in this case, the inlet valve channel 651 of the valve cavity seat 65 is arranged corresponding to the inlet opening 6311 of the valve body 63 , and the valve plate 641 a of the valve diaphragm 64 is closed in between. The function of the valve structure, and the valve sheet 641a covers the inlet opening 6311 of the valve body 63, and at the same time fits the convex structure 6343 of the valve body 63 to generate a pre-force (Preforce) effect, which helps to generate greater pre-tightening In order to prevent reverse flow, the outlet valve channel 652 is arranged corresponding to the outlet opening 6321 of the valve body 63, and the valve plate 641b of the valve diaphragm 64 is used to seal the valve structure. 641b seals the outlet valve channel 652 of the valve cavity seat 65, and at the same time fits the convex structure 6521 of the valve cavity seat 65 to generate a preforce effect, which is helpful to produce a greater pre-capping effect, so as to prevent In order to prevent backflow to the pressure chamber 657 , when the fluid conveying device 6 constructed in this case is inactive, there will be no backflow effect between the inlet passage 631 and the outlet passage 632 of the valve body 63 .

It can be seen from the above description that the fluid conveying device 6 of the present case is implementing the operation of fluid transmission. As shown in FIG. 12A , when the piezoelectric element 662 of the actuator 66 is actuated by the applied voltage to cause the vibration plate 661 to concavely deform, at this time The volume of the pressure chamber 657 will increase, thereby generating suction, so that the valve plate 641a of the valve diaphragm 64 is subjected to a suction force to open rapidly, so that a large amount of fluid can be sucked in from the inlet channel 631 on the valve body 63 and flow through the valve The inlet opening 6311 of the main body 63, the hollow hole 643a of the valve diaphragm 64, and the inlet valve channel 651 of the valve cavity seat 65 flow into the pressure chamber 657 for temporary storage, while the outlet valve channel 652 is also subjected to suction, and the valve diaphragm 64 The valve plate 641b of the valve plate 641b is subjected to this suction, and is supported by the extension bracket 642b to produce the entire downward and flat abutment against the convex structure 6521 to present a closed state.

Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 12B, when the direction of the electric field applied to the piezoelectric element 662 is changed, the piezoelectric element 662 will cause the vibration plate 661 to deform upwardly, and the pressure chamber 657 shrinks and the volume decreases, so that the pressure chamber 657 shrinks. The fluid in 657 is squeezed, and at the same time, the inlet valve channel 651 is thrust, and the valve sheet 641a of the valve diaphragm 64 is affected by this thrust, and is supported by the extension bracket 642a to produce the entire upward flat against the convex structure 6343. In the closed state, the fluid cannot flow backward from the inlet valve channel 651, and at this time, the outlet valve channel 652 is also thrust, and the valve plate 641b of the valve diaphragm 64 is affected by this thrust, and is supported by the extension bracket 42b to produce the entire upward separation. In the state of being flat against the convex structure 6521 and showing an open state, the fluid can flow out of the pressure chamber 657 from the outlet valve channel 652, through the outlet valve channel 652 of the valve chamber seat 65, and the hollow on the valve diaphragm 64. The hole 643b, the outlet opening 6321 on the valve body 63 and the outlet channel 632 flow out of the fluid delivery device 6, so the process of fluid delivery is completed, and the operations shown in FIGS. 12A and 12B are repeated to continue the fluid delivery. The use of the fluid conveying device 6 of the present invention can prevent the fluid from flowing back during the conveying process, thereby achieving high-efficiency transmission.
