Definitions
- the present invention relates to the technical field of simulated smoking, and in particular, to an atomizer and an electronic cigarette using the atomizer.
- the atomizers are basically injected with liquid from the bottom, from the side or from the top.
- most atomizers are injected with liquid from the bottom.
- the inconvenience of injecting from the bottom and the poor sealing effect now most of them are injected with liquid from the top or from the side.
- children's protection is not taken into account when top liquid injection or side liquid injection is used. Children are easy to open the atomizer to contact the e-liquid, which has a large potential safety hazard.
- Document of CN206507314U has disclosed a relevant atomizer in which a locking protrusion 246 is used to be locked with a groove 217, so as to lock the top cover 24 relative to the liquid injection cover 21 before the liquid injection hole 213 of the liquid injection cover 21 is exposed.
- the purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems in the prior art, and provide an atomizer and an electronic cigarette, which are provided with a safety lock so that the children cannot easily open the liquid injection hole, thereby preventing children from contacting e-liquid and making it safer to use.
- An atomizer includes an upper cover assembly and a liquid injection cover.
- the upper cover assembly is provided with a liquid injection hole.
- the liquid injection cover is provided at one end of the upper cover assembly and covers the liquid injection hole.
- the upper cover assembly is provided with a locking structure, and the liquid injection cover is provided with a locking groove, or the upper cover assembly is provided with a locking groove, and the liquid injection cover is provided with a locking structure.
- the locking structure is locked in the locking groove, the liquid injection cover is limited at a position for covering the liquid injection hole.
- the liquid injection cover moves out of the locking groove, the liquid injection cover is able to slide to expose the liquid injection hole.
- the locking structure includes a mounting groove provided in the upper cover assembly, and a locking member and an elastic member received in the mounting groove.
- the mounting groove is provided with an upper opening and a side opening.
- the locking member is provided with a locking arm.
- the elastic member is arranged at the inner end of the mounting groove. The locking member and the elastic member are received in the mounting groove in series. The locking member and the elastic member abut against each other. The locking member extends from the side opening to an outside of the atomizer. The locking arm is exposed through the upper opening.
- the upper cover assembly includes an upper cover and a connection seat.
- the liquid injection cover is sleeved on the connection seat.
- a slider is provided on the connection seat.
- a sliding groove is provided in the upper cover. The slider is received in the sliding groove and can slide along the sliding groove.
- liquid injection cover is provided with an accommodating groove, and the sliding groove and the slider are received in the accommodating groove.
- a limiting groove is provided inside the locking member, and one end of the elastic member near the locking member is received in the limiting groove.
- the upper cover is provided with an air outlet tube.
- the connection seat is provided with a smoke outlet hole.
- the air outlet tube penetrates the upper and lower ends of the upper cover. The upper end of the air outlet tube is in communication with the smoke outlet hole of the connection seat.
- the atomizer further includes a base assembly and a liquid storage tube.
- the upper end of the liquid storage tube abuts against the upper cover assembly.
- the lower end of the liquid storage tube abuts against the base assembly.
- the atomizer further includes an atomizing head.
- the atomizing head is provided on the base assembly.
- the atomizing head is located in the liquid storage tube.
- the atomizing head is provided with an atomizing liquid inlet hole.
- the upper end of the atomizing head is provided with an atomizing air outlet hole.
- the upper end of the atomizing head is connected to the air outlet tube.
- the atomizing air outlet hole is in communication with the air outlet tube.
- the atomizer further includes a mouthpiece.
- the mouthpiece is detachably connected to the connection seat.
- the mouthpiece is provided with a smoking hole.
- the smoking hole is in communication with the smoke outlet hole.
- the locking groove is located at one side of the accommodating groove and is in communication with the accommodating groove.
- the locking arm is configured for inserting into the locking groove; when the locking arm is inserted into the locking groove, the locking structure is in a locked state, so that the sliding of the liquid injection cover is restricted and the liquid injection cover covers the liquid injection hole; when the locking member is pressed from the outside of the atomizer to move inwards towards the accommodating groove, the locking arm moves together with the locking member to leave the locking groove, so that the locking structure is in an unlocked state and the liquid injection cover can slide to expose the liquid injection hole.
- An electronic cigarette includes the atomizer as described above.
- the liquid injection cover exposes or covers the liquid injection hole through a sliding manner, and the liquid injection cover and the upper cover assembly are respectively provided with the locking groove and the locking structure.
