Description

  • The invention relates to an electronic cigarette, and more particularly to an atomizer of an electronic cigarette.
  • It is well-known that "Smoking is harmful to health", but there are still hundreds of millions of smokers in the world, and the trend is expanding. To purify the environment, prohibiting smoking in public places has become the consensus of people. Thus, cigarette substitutes such as "patches for quitting smoking", "nicotine mouthwash", "nicotine gum", "nicotine drink" flourish in the market. Although the cigarette substitutes cause no tar harm, nicotine is slowly absorbed in the blood and thus an effective peak concentration of nicotine cannot be established, so the "satisfied" feeling resulting from the high concentration of tobacco alkali cannot be achieved. Meanwhile, the smokers are deprived of the smoking actions such as "pumping", "expiring", and "puffing" by consuming the cigarette substitutes.
  • CN 202 932 038 U discloses a transparent atomizer according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • In view of the above-described problems, it is one objective of the invention to provide an atomizer that is convenient for use and causes no pollution. Using the atomizer as a cigarette substitute, the smoking actions such as "pumping", "expiring", and "puffing" are practicable.
  • The invention provides a transparent atomizer according to claim 1.
  • Preferably, the atomizer assembly comprises a sealing ring for sealing the pair of heating wires.
  • Preferably, the atomizer assembly further comprises a joint which is connected to the heating wire base.
  • Preferably, each of the pair of heating wires comprises a positive and a negative electrode, and the positive and negative electrodes of each of the pair of heating wires are separated by a silicone ring.
  • Advantages of the invention are summarized as follows:
    1. 1) Two heating wires are disposed in the limit cover, and so the smoke is large, the taste is pure, no oil leaks into the mouth;
    2. 2) The pair of heating wires are disposed at the bottom of the atomizer and are hidden in the inside of the limit cover, and assistant parts of the heating wires such as fiber ropes cannot be seen from the outside, thereby having a beautiful external appearance; and
    3. 3) The atomization pole separates the smoke oil from the air and tightly integrates the atomizer as a whole, and the atomizer and the copper part cooperate closely to switch on the circuits.
  • The invention is described hereinbelow with reference to accompanying drawings, in which:
    • Fig. 1 is an exploded view of a transparent atomizer of the invention; and
    • Fig. 2 is sectional view of a transparent atomizer of the invention.
  • As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a transparent atomizer comprises a cigarette holder assembly, a transparent tube assembly, an atomizer assembly, and a heating wire base.
  • The cigarette holder assembly comprises a plastic long cigarette holder 1 and a long sealing ring 2.
  • The transparent tube assembly comprises an upper ring 3 for fixing the cigarette holder, a steel tube base 4, a threaded sealing ring 5, a cigarette holder pole 6, an external transparent tube 7, and a fixing base16.
  • The atomizer assembly comprises a joint 15, an insulating ring 14, a sealing ring 13 for sealing the heating wires, a threaded ring 12, a sealing gasket 11 of the atomization pole, an oil-guiding cotton 8, heating wires 9, and a limit cover 10 for fixing the heating wires.
  • The heating wire base comprises an external fixing ring 18 and a sealing ring 17 of the transparent tube.
  • The atomizer is assembly according to following steps:
    1. 1) Fixing the atomizer assembly and the heating wire base via screw threads;
    2. 2) Infusing smoke oil into the transparent tube assembly to a preset graduated scale;
    3. 3) Assembling the atomizer assembly, the heating wire base, and the transparent tube assembly;
    4. 4) Inserting the cigarette holder assembly into the fixing base of the cigarette holder of the transparent tube assembly; and
    5. 5) Connecting the heating wires with power supply.
  • While particular embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that changes and modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
