In addition, the technical solutions in the embodiments may be combined with each other, but it must be based on the realization of those skilled in the art, and when the technical solutions are contradictory to each other or cannot be realized, such a combination should not be considered to exist, and is not within the protection scope of the present invention.

Referring to fig. 1 to 13, an embodiment of a ventilation structure is mainly used for ventilation control of an air inlet of an electronic cigarette, and the ventilation structure specifically includes a housing 100 and an adjuster 200 slidably disposed on the housing 100, the housing 100 is provided with a first air inlet 111 communicated with an external space and a second air inlet 121 communicated with a gas pipeline 310 of an atomizer 300, the adjuster 200 is provided with a through hole 211 and an air discharge slot 215 communicated with the through hole 211, air in the external space can enter the gas pipeline 310 of the atomizer 300 through the first air inlet 111, the through hole 211, and the second air inlet 121, and the adjuster 200 is pushed to slide relative to the housing 100, so as to change the position of the through hole 211 to adjust the conduction area of the first air inlet 111 and the second air inlet 121, thereby achieving ventilation control of the air inlet end of the gas pipeline 310 in the atomizer 300.

Specifically, the change of the conduction areas of the first intake hole 111 and the second intake hole 121 can be realized by adjusting the position of the through hole 211 relative to the first intake hole 111 and the second intake hole 121, the adjuster 200 can slide relative to the housing 100 to increase the overlapping area of the through hole 211 relative to the first intake hole 111 and the second intake hole 121, i.e., the increase of the conduction areas of the first intake hole 111 and the second intake hole 121 can be realized, and the adjuster 200 can also slide relative to the housing 100 to reduce the overlapping area of the through hole 211 relative to the first intake hole 111 and the second intake hole 121, i.e., the reduction of the conduction areas of the first intake hole 111 and the second intake hole 121 can be realized. Therefore, the air regulation control of the air inlet end of the air pipeline 310 in the atomizer 300 can be realized by adjusting the conduction areas of the first air inlet hole 111 and the second air inlet hole 121.

It can be understood that, when the adjuster 200 is to close the first air inlet hole 111, the conduction area between the first air inlet hole 111 and the through hole 211 is small, and when a user sucks the electronic cigarette, because the exposed gap of the first air inlet hole 111 is small, the air flow rate from the air inlet to the through hole 211 is large, the through hole 211 forms a transition space for air to enter, and because the spatial size of the through hole 211 is small, the air with a fast flow rate is easy to generate an air vortex phenomenon in the through hole 211, and then a whistle is generated.

The structure of adjusting luminance of this embodiment, because the setting of air discharge groove 215, can be with getting into the faster air discharge of velocity of flow in the via hole 211 to air discharge groove 215's extending direction, increased transition space's space size, can cushion the great admission of flow, reduce air flow rate to air vortex phenomenon appears in avoiding the via hole 211, can eliminate the whistle of adjusting luminance in-process.

In one embodiment, with continued reference to fig. 5-7, the regulator 200 and the housing 100 enclose a buffer space 240, and the vent slot 215 communicates with the hole 211 and the buffer space 240. Through the setting of buffer space 240, can lead the faster air of velocity of flow to buffer space 240 through air discharge duct 215 to further cushion the faster air of velocity of flow, reduce air flow rate, owing to further increased the space size who admits air transition space, the velocity of flow of reduction air in transition space that can be better, in order to eliminate the whistle of accent air in-process.

In an embodiment, the casing 100 includes a first wall 110 and a second wall 120 opposite to the first wall 110, the first wall 110 is provided with a first air inlet hole 111, the second wall 120 is provided with a second air inlet hole 121, and the adjuster 200 is disposed between the first wall 110 and the second wall 120. The adjuster 200 slides between the first wall surface 110 and the second wall surface 120 to adjust the position of the through hole 211, thereby adjusting the communication area of the first intake hole 111 and the second intake hole 121.

Further, the first air inlet holes 111 and the second air inlet holes 121 are oppositely arranged, so that the through holes 211 can be coincided with the first air inlet holes 111 and the second air inlet holes 121 at the same time, and the maximum communication area of the first air inlet holes 111 and the second air inlet holes 121 is achieved.

In this embodiment, the sliding arrangement of the adjuster 200 on the housing 100 can be achieved by various embodiments.

In a preferred embodiment, the housing 100 is provided with a sliding slot 130, the first wall 110 and the second wall 120 are side walls of the sliding slot 130, and the adjuster 200 is disposed in the sliding slot 130 and can reciprocate in the sliding slot 130 along the extending direction of the sliding slot 130; the air regulating structure further includes a sealing member 132, and the sealing member 132 is used to close the open end of the sliding groove 130. After the adjuster 200 is fitted into the sliding groove 130 through the open end, the open end of the sliding groove 130 may be closed by the sealing member 132 to achieve the mounting of the adjuster 200 on the housing 100. The sealing member 132 may be a sealing silicone.

Through the sealing arrangement of the sealing member 132 to the sliding groove 130, air can only pass through the first air inlet hole 111 to enter the second air inlet hole 121, and the accuracy and stability of the air regulation control of the regulator 200 are ensured.

Further, the sealing member 132 encloses the housing 100 and the adjuster 200 to form the buffer space 240, and the sealing of the buffer space 240 can be ensured due to the sealing arrangement of the sealing member 132 to the sliding groove 130.

It will be appreciated that the relief space 240 is a dynamic space, and the size of the relief space 240 gradually decreases as the adjuster 200 slides from the open end to the closed end.

Fig. 5 shows a schematic diagram of adjusting the state of the opening end of the structure to adjust the air flow until the air passage is fully opened, and at this time, the space size of the buffer space 240 is the largest.

Fig. 6 shows a schematic view of an adjustment mechanism about to close, for example, to adjust the air passage to a state of closing four fifths of the way, in which the space size of the buffer space 240 is reduced, but the air can also be exhausted to the buffer space 240 through the exhaust slot 215 to reduce the flow rate of the air.

Fig. 7 shows a schematic view of the closed end of the adjustment mechanism, adjusting the air flow until the air passage is completely closed, and the spatial size of the buffer space 240 is minimized.

In another embodiment, the housing 100 includes a first side holder and a second side holder, a first side mounting groove is disposed on the first side holder, the first air inlet hole 111 is disposed on the first side holder and is communicated with the first side mounting groove, a second side mounting groove is disposed on the second side holder, and the second air inlet hole 121 is disposed on the second side holder and is communicated with the second side mounting groove, the adjuster 200 can be installed in a groove defined by the first side holder and the second side holder, the adjuster 200 can reciprocate in an extending direction of the groove, and when the adjuster 200 is placed between the first side holder and the second side holder, the first side holder and the second side holder can approach each other and are hermetically connected to achieve the installation of the adjuster 200 on the housing 100.

Of course, in other embodiments, the housing 100 may be formed with other fixing structures to achieve the sliding arrangement of the adjuster 200 on the housing 100.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 5-7 and 9-13, the air discharge slot 215 is a slot formed by the adjuster 200 being recessed towards the direction away from the first wall 110, and since the air with a higher flow rate enters through the first air inlet 111, the air discharge slot 215 is disposed at the side close to the first air inlet 111, so as to better achieve buffering of the air with a higher flow rate, and reduce the air flow rate, so as to eliminate the air vortex phenomenon and whistle. Of course, in other embodiments, the vent slot 215 may be disposed on the adjuster 200 near the second wall 120, or the vent slot 215 may be disposed in the middle of the adjuster 200.

In an embodiment, the aperture of the exhaust slot 215 gradually increases from the end communicating with the through hole 211 to the direction away from the through hole 211, and the gradually increasing channel can better buffer the air with a faster flow speed, so as to reduce the air flow speed. Preferably, the vent slot 215 is flared.

In one embodiment, the push adjuster 200 slides relative to the housing 100 from the open end to the closed end, so as to change the position of the through hole 211 to adjust the conducting areas of the first air inlet hole 111 and the second air inlet hole 121 to change from large to small; the air discharge groove 215 is disposed near the closed end relative to the via hole 211, so that the air entering the via hole 211 with a high flow rate flows toward the air discharge groove 215, thereby better completing the air buffering and reducing the air flow rate.

In an embodiment, referring to fig. 14-17, the adjuster 200 is further provided with an avoiding groove 216 communicated with the through hole 211, and the avoiding groove 216 is used to increase a communication area between the through hole 211 and the first air inlet hole 111, so that in a process of pushing the adjuster 200 to slide relative to the housing 100, a first communication area between the through hole 211 and the first air inlet hole 111 is greater than a second communication area between the through hole 211 and the second air inlet hole 121.

It can be understood that, when the gas pipe 310 of the atomizer 300 sucks the intake air, the air in the external space passes through the first air inlet hole 111, the through hole 211 and the second air inlet hole 121 to be delivered to the gas pipe 310 of the atomizer 300, and since the avoiding groove 216 is disposed on the adjuster 200, in the process of pushing the adjuster 200 to slide relative to the housing 100, a first conduction area between the through hole 211 and the first air inlet hole 111 is larger than a second conduction area between the through hole 211 and the second air inlet hole 121, and under the same suction amount, the intake air flow rate of the first conduction area will be smaller than that of the second conduction area, thereby eliminating the suction whistle at the conduction position between the first air inlet hole 111 and the transition chamber.

Therefore, on one hand, the arrangement of the avoiding groove 216 causes the first conduction area of the through hole 211 and the first air inlet hole 111 to be larger than the second conduction area of the through hole 211 and the second air inlet hole 121, so as to reduce the air inlet flow speed at the through hole 211 and the first air inlet hole 111; on the other hand, through the setting of exhaust duct 215, increased the space size in transition space, can cushion the great admit air of velocity of flow, reduce air flow rate to the air vortex phenomenon appears in avoiding the via hole 211. Furthermore, the whistle sound in the air conditioning process can be better eliminated through the two technical means.

In an embodiment, the avoiding groove 216 and the exhaust groove 215 are oppositely arranged on two sides of the through hole 211, air enters the through hole 211 from one side of the avoiding groove 216, and the air is more smoothly buffered through the exhaust groove 215, so that the flow rate of the air is reduced, and a whistle in the air conditioning process is eliminated.

Further, the avoiding groove 216 is a hemispherical groove 214, which is more beneficial to the guiding flow of air. Of course, in other embodiments, the relief groove 216 may also be square or other shapes.

In an embodiment, the adjuster 200 includes an adjusting plate 210 and an adjusting knob 220 connected to the adjusting plate 210, the adjusting plate 210 is provided with a through hole 211, an escape groove 216 and an exhaust groove 215, and the position of the through hole 211 is changed by adjusting the position of the adjusting plate 210, thereby adjusting the conduction area of the first intake hole 111 and the second intake hole 121.

Furthermore, the adjusting button 220 is at least partially exposed out of the first air inlet hole 111, and pushing the adjusting button 220 can drive the adjusting plate 210 to slide relative to the casing 100, which is more beneficial for a user to toggle the adjusting button 220.

Specifically, the first air inlet hole 111 extends along a first direction, and the adjuster 200 can reciprocate along the extending direction of the first air inlet hole 111 to change the positions of the through hole 211 relative to the first air inlet hole 111 and the second air inlet hole 121, thereby adjusting the conduction areas of the first air inlet hole 111 and the second air inlet hole 121.

In an embodiment, the adjuster 200 is provided with an elastic body 230, at least a part of the elastic body 230 is disposed around the through hole 211, the elastic body 230 elastically abuts against the housing 100 to elastically seal the adjuster 200 and the housing 100, so that the tightness between the adjuster 200 and the housing 100 can be maintained, and air is prevented from entering the second air inlet hole 121 through a gap between the adjuster 200 and the housing 100, so as to ensure the accuracy and stability of the air adjustment control of the adjuster 200. Specifically, the elastic body 230 includes a first elastic part 231 disposed around the via hole 211.

Therefore, the sealing performance of the adjuster 200 relative to the housing 100 can be maintained by the arrangement of the elastic body 230, and further, when the adjuster 200 is pushed to slide relative to the housing 100 to adjust the conduction area of the first air inlet hole 111 and the second air inlet hole 121, the stability of air adjustment can be ensured, and when the communication between the first air inlet hole 111 and the second air inlet hole 121 is blocked, air can be kept from entering through the second air inlet hole 121.

In this embodiment, the elastic body 230 is in interference fit with the housing 100, so as to achieve sealing and damping effects, and ensure accuracy and stability of the air adjustment control of the adjuster 200, thereby avoiding damage to the appearance surface of the housing 100 during the air adjustment control process.

Specifically, the first surface 212 faces the first wall 110, and the second surface 213 faces the second wall 120.

In a preferred embodiment, the first elastic portion 231 is disposed on the second surface 213 to achieve elastic sealing between the through hole 211 and the second wall 120, so as to ensure that air passing through the through hole 211 enters the second air inlet hole 121, thereby ensuring accuracy and stability of air adjustment.

The second elastic portion 232 is disposed on the first surface 212, and the first elastic portion 231 and the second elastic portion 232 are disposed on two sides of the adjustment plate 210, so that the adjustment plate 210 can be elastically clamped between the first wall surface 110 and the second wall surface 120, and the stability of the adjustment plate 210 sliding relative to the housing 100 can be ensured.

Preferably, the second elastic portion 232 is formed on the first surface 212 as two strip-shaped protrusions spaced apart from each other, and the strip-shaped protrusions extend along the first direction.

In another embodiment, the first and second surfaces 212 and 213 are respectively provided with a first elastic portion 231 to achieve elastic sealing between the through hole 211 and the first and second wall surfaces 110 and 120, respectively, so as to ensure that air passing through the first air inlet hole 111 can enter the second air inlet hole 121 through the through hole 211, thereby further improving the accuracy and stability of air conditioning.
