Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electronic cigarette.
  • a typical electronic cigarette includes a battery assembly 1 and an atomizing device 2 arranged on the battery assembly 1 .
  • the atomizing device 2 has tobacco solution and a heating assembly 6 for heating the tobacco solution.
  • a long distance of threads is used at a connection end of each of the battery assembly 1 and the atomizing device 2 , resulting that dismounting the atomizing device 2 and the battery assembly 1 from each other is inconvenient.
  • FIG. 1 is a cross sectional view of a battery assembly and an atomizing device in accordance with a first embodiment.
  • FIG. 2 is an isometric view of a battery assembly and an atomizing device in accordance with a first embodiment.
  • FIG. 3 is an assembled view of FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 4 is a cross sectional cut-away view of a battery assembly and an atomizing device in accordance with a second embodiment.
  • FIG. 5 is a cross sectional cut-away view of a battery assembly and an atomizing device in accordance with a third embodiment.
  • FIG. 6 is a cross sectional view of a conventional battery assembly and atomizing device.
  • the electronic cigarette includes a battery assembly 1 and an atomizing device 2 .
  • the atomizing device 2 has a tobacco solution containing space 4 , and a heating assembly 6 configured for heating the tobacco solution.
  • the atomizing device 2 further has a connecting portion 7 protruded from an end thereof
  • the connecting portion 7 is ring-shaped, and has an electrode ring 5 positioned therein.
  • an outer wall of the connecting portion 7 is flat and smooth, and the connecting portion 7 is made of a ferromagnetic material, such as iron, cobalt, nickel which can be magnetized and can be electrically conductive.
  • the battery assembly 1 includes a receiving space 3 defined at an end thereof, an electrode ring 9 positioned in the receiving space 3 , a magnetic block 10 and an insulated ring 12 .
  • the magnetic block 10 is positioned in the receiving space 3 around the electrode ring 9 , and the insulated ring 12 is located between the electrode ring 9 and the magnetic block 10 .
  • the magnetic block 10 can be a permanent magnet.
  • the connecting portion 7 of the atomizing device 2 when the connecting portion 7 of the atomizing device 2 is inserted in the receiving space 3 of the battery assembly 1 , due to magnetic attraction between the connecting portion 7 and the magnetic block 10 , the atomizing device 2 and the battery assembly 1 can be connected quickly, therefore the electrode ring 5 can contact the electrode ring 9 for electrical connection, and the heating assembly 6 can work for heating the tobacco solution in the atomizing device 2 .
  • the receiving space 3 is provided by a ring-shaped magnetizable member 8 , such as an iron member or magnetic ceramic, thereby a magnetic force of the battery assembly 1 can be enhanced.
  • An inner wall of the receiving space 3 is flat and smooth.
  • the magnetizable member 8 can be electrically conductive, or insulated. When the magnetizable member 8 is electrically conductive, the connecting portion 7 of the atomizing device 2 can be electrically connected to the magnetizable member 8 . When the magnetizable member 8 is insulated, the connecting portion 7 of the atomizing device 2 can be electrically connected to a metallic battery sleeve of the battery assembly 1 .
  • the receiving space 3 can be directly provided by a battery sleeve of the battery assembly 1 .
  • an elastic member 11 is applied to the electrode ring 9 of the battery assembly 1 , that is, the electrode ring 9 is fixed by the elastic member 11 in the insulated ring 12 .
  • the elastic member 11 can be selected from a group consisting of spring, resilient sheet and silicon rubber ring. Due to the elasticity of the elastic member 11 , the electrode ring 9 can stretch out and draw back, such that a contact between the electrode ring 5 and the electrode ring 9 can be tightly, and therefore a good electrical connection between the electrode ring 5 and the electrode ring 9 can be attained. In addition, due to stretchable elastic member 11 , a connection depth between the battery assembly 1 and the atomizing device 2 can be adjusted.
  • an electronic cigarette in accordance with a second embodiment is provided.
  • the electronic cigarette of the second embodiment is essentially similar to the electronic cigarette of the first embodiment, only differs that an atomizing device 2 of the electronic cigarette of the second embodiment also has a magnetic block 10 , and the magnetic block 10 is arranged near a connecting portion 7 of the atomizing device 2 .
  • a battery assembly 1 has a connecting portion 71 protruded from an end thereof, and an atomizing device 2 has a magnetizable member 81 having a receiving space 31 .
  • the connecting portion 71 is preferably made of a permanent magnet. In assembly, the battery assembly 1 is inserted into the receiving space 31 of the atomizing device 2 , and the connecting portion 71 is quickly magnetically attracted by the magnetizable member 81 .
  • a magnetic block 10 can be avoided in present embodiment.
