The forming principle of the cigarette ring is as follows: as the smoke particles pass rapidly through an aperture with the air, the air surrounding the exit of the aperture is static, so that the air and particle mixture flowing out of the aperture pulls the static surrounding air, thereby forming a vortex which rotates outwardly and inwardly from the edge of the aperture, forming an annular ring, the smoke ring. It is also understood that the bernoulli principle, in which the pressure of the flowing liquid is reduced and the static air with high peripheral pressure is replenished to the area with low pressure, forms a vortex which is distributed around the hole, shaped like a ring, and moves forward. This annular vortex causes the smoke particles within it to not diffuse into the surrounding air at a constant rate, i.e. to be trapped by the vortex, thereby forming what we see as a smoke ring.

In one example, the apparatus body 1 further includes: mount pad 15, mount pad 15 and smog store the other end fixed connection of cover 13, and mount pad 15 is equipped with the regulation breach, and regulating part 14 is established and is being adjusted breach department and with mount pad 15 fixed connection.

In an exemplary embodiment, the adjustment member 14 comprises a flexible sealing member disposed opposite the smoke outlet 12 and configured to be elastically deformed in a direction toward or away from the smoke outlet 12 by the power unit 5 to adjust the volume of the smoke storage chamber 11.

The adjustment member 14 comprises a flexible sealing member which is elastically deformable under the action of the power unit 5, so that the volume of the smoke storage chamber 11 is suddenly changed, i.e. the flexible sealing member can make the volume of the smoke storage chamber 11 change suddenly through the elastic deformation of the flexible sealing member. The flexible sealing member is arranged opposite to the smoke outlet 12, and when the flexible sealing member is suddenly deformed, the smoke near the smoke outlet 12 can be driven to rapidly pass through the smoke outlet 12, so that a smoke ring is formed. The elastic deformation speed of the flexible sealing element in the scheme is high, the efficient formation of the smoke ring is favorably improved, the structure is simple, and the product cost is favorably reduced.

Moreover, the flexible sealing element only elastically deforms in the using process, and cannot integrally shift, so that a good sealing effect can be achieved, the sealing performance of the smoke storage cavity 11 is improved, the risk of smoke leakage is reduced, and the using reliability of the smoke ring generating device 100 is improved.

The adjusting piece 14 is in sliding connection with the smoke storage cover 13 in a piston mode, the piston does not need to deform like a flexible sealing piece, and the piston is good in working stability and not prone to damage. And, the piston changes the position through sliding connection's mode, can be more quick, change the volume of smog storage chamber 11 in the wider range, improves the stability of cigarette circle, avoids the too fast dissipation of cigarette circle.

In an exemplary embodiment, the flexible seal is provided with a crimp deformation.

When the power device 5 drives the adjusting piece 14, the fold deformation part of the flexible sealing piece can be expanded or contracted to deform. The pleat deformation may comprise a plurality of pleats to improve the deformability of the flexible seal.

Compared with the scheme without the fold deformation part, the scheme is favorable for reducing the deformation difficulty of the flexible sealing part, so that the power requirement on the power device 5 is reduced, the power device 5 is favorable for being simplified, and the cost of the power device 5 is reduced.
