Description

Cigarette type electronic cigarette fixing module {Fix assembly for cylindrical type electronic cigarette}

The present invention relates to a cigarette-type electronic cigarette fixing module, and more specifically, to a cigarette-type electronic cigarette fixing module that can more firmly and strongly fix the fixing axis for fixing the electronic cigarette.

Cigarette-type electronic cigarettes heat a cigarette-type cigarette stick containing tobacco leaves and allow the user to inhale it. Cigarette-type electronic cigarettes use actual tobacco leaves, allowing smoking similar to regular tobacco cigarettes. However, the biggest difference between cigarette-type electronic cigarettes and tobacco cigarettes is that electronic cigarettes use a method of steaming tobacco leaves by applying heat rather than burning them. For this purpose, a tobacco stick is fixed to the shaft within the electronic cigarette, and the tobacco leaf is heated by heat transmitted from the shaft. When smoking is complete, the user removes the cigarette stick fixed to the shaft by rotating it or moving it up and down.

However, the shaft of the existing cigarette-type electronic cigarette has reduced adhesion due to the force generated when the cigarette stick is removed from the shaft, causing the shaft to lift from the module in the electronic cigarette or the shaft itself to spin freely. As a result, the waterproof function of the electronic cigarette is weakened, allowing moisture to penetrate inside, thereby deteriorating the performance of the electronic cigarette.
