Description

【技术领域】
本发明涉及烟具的技术领域,特别是涉及一种电子烟及其雾化器。
【背景技术】
电子烟又名虚拟香烟。电子烟的雾化器用于存储烟液,并将烟液雾化。为了方便携带和使用,雾化器的体积一般较小,雾化器用于存储烟液的空间也比较小。因此,一般的雾化器储液量少,无法满足需要。

上述电子烟及其雾化器,储液组件包括塑料外管和金属内管,其中金属内管可以做的很薄,很薄的金属内管就可以保证结构强度,因此可以增大储液腔的体积,提高储液量。同时,金属内管直接与塑料外管的连接部连接,连接部与外管本体是一体连接结构,结构简单,无需其他复杂的连接结构,节约空间,可以进一步增大储液腔的体积,提高储液量。
【附图说明】
为了更清楚地说明本发明实施例或现有技术中的技术方案,下面将对实施例或现有技术描述中所需要使用的附图作简单地介绍,显而易见地,下面描述中的附图仅仅是本发明的一些实施例,对于本领域普通技术人员来讲,在不付出创造性劳动的前提下,还可以根据这些附图获得其他实施例的附图。

图2为图1所示电子烟的立体分解示意图;
图3为图1所示电子烟中的雾化器的立体分解示意图;
图4为图1所示电子烟中的雾化器的剖视图;

【具体实施方式】
为了便于理解本发明,下面将参照相关附图对电子雾化装置进行更全面的描述。附图中给出了电子雾化装置的首选实施例。但是,电子雾化装置可以以许多不同的形式来实现,并不限于本文所描述的实施例。相反地,提供这些实施例的目的是使对电子雾化装置的公开内容更加透彻全面。
除非另有定义,本文所使用的所有的技术和科学术语与属于本发明的技术领域的技术人员通常理解的含义相同。本文中在电子雾化装置的说明书中所使用的术语只是为了描述具体的实施例的目的,不是旨在于限制本发明。本文所使用的术语“及/或”包括一个或多个相关的所列项目的任意的和所有的组合。
如图1、图2所示,一实施方式的电子烟包括雾化器10和电池装置20,雾化器10和电池装置20可以通过可拆卸的方式连接,如螺纹连接,电池装置20用于为雾化器10供电。
同时参见图3、图4,雾化器10包括储液组件100和雾化组件200。储液组件100包括塑料外管120和金属内管140,塑料外管120包括外管本体122和设置在外管本体122内的连接部124,连接部124与外管本体122一体连接。金属内管140设置在外管本体122内,金属内管140直接与连接部124连接。金属内管140可以是不锈钢管,也可以是钢管、碳素管等其他主要包含金属材质的管。金属内管140内部形成吸气通道142,塑料外管120和金属内管140之间形成储液腔160。雾化组件200与储液组件100连接,雾化组件200用于吸取储液腔160内的烟液,并将烟液雾化。雾化组件200开设有气流通道210,气流通道210与吸气通道142连通。
由于储液组件100包括塑料外管120和金属内管140,其中金属内管140可以做的很薄,很薄的金属内管140就可以保证结构强度,因此可以增大储液腔160的体积,提高储液量。同时,金属内管140直接与塑料外管120的连接部124连接,连接部124与外管本体122是一体连接结构,结构简单,无需其他复杂的连接结构,节约空间,可以进一步增大储液腔160的体积,提高储液量。
传统的储液组件主要有两种,第一种是内外管为一体的,均由塑胶注塑成型,但由于塑料的强度较弱,其内管需要有一定的壁厚,才能满足一定的力学性能,而本实施例中采用金属内管140可以大大减小壁厚,在小尺寸的电子烟中,该壁厚的减小可以明显增大储液量。第二种,是内管为金属管,外管为塑料或玻璃管,然而,这种储液组件结构往往复杂,一般采用一些连接部件来固定内外管。本实施例中,金属内管140直接连接到塑料外管120的连接部124上,整体储液组件100结构更加简单。
在其中一个实施例中,塑料外管120还可以包括端壁126,端壁126设置在外管本体122的端部,连接部124呈管状,连接部124的一端与端壁126连接且与外界连通,金属内管140通过连接部124的另一端套接在连接部124上,方便组装。外管本体122、端壁126和连接部124一体连接,方便注塑成型。
同时参见图5,在一实施例中,连接部124和金属内管140紧配合连接,且连接部124和金属内管140之间密封,防止储液腔160内的烟液进入吸气通道142。具体的,至少部分连接部124的外径可以略大于金属内管140的内径,使得连接部124可以与金属内管140紧配合。进一步的,在一实施例中,连接部124可以包括第一部分124a和第二部分124b,第一部分124a与端壁126连接,第一部分124a与金属内管140紧配合,第二部分124b与第一部分124a连接,第二部分124b与金属内管140之间具有缝隙144。具体的,第一部分124a的外径可以略大于金属内管140的内径,使得第一部分124a可以与金属内管140紧配合,第二部分124b的外径可以略小于金属内管140的内径,使得第二部分124b与金属内管140之间具有缝隙144。该缝隙144可以降低金属内管140内壁上凝结的烟液经过连接部124爬入使用者口中。
在一实施例中,金属内管140的端部可以抵接端壁126,实现二重密封连接,防止储液腔160内的烟液进入吸气通道142。进一步的,在一实施例中,金属内管140的端部设置有倒角146,倒角146靠近连接部124,避免金属内管140与连接部124连接时,连接部124插入金属内管140中,金属内管140从塑料的连接部124上铲下塑料碎屑,污染烟液。
再参见图3、图4,一实施例的雾化器10还包括连接组件300,连接组件300与外管本体122连接,连接组件300将雾化组件200限制在外管本体122内,连接组件300用于与电池装置20连接,连接组件300上可以设置有用于连接电池装置20的螺纹320。在一实施例中,雾化器10还可以包括连接件400,连接件400包括管状部420和设置在管状部420外部的台阶部440。管状部420的一端伸入金属内管140中,管状部420的另一端伸入气流通道210中,台阶部440的两侧分别抵接管状部420和雾化组件200,以方便安装定位。
同时参见图6,在一实施例中,雾化组件200包括多孔体220和发热结构(图中未示出),多孔体220包括吸液面222、雾化面224和侧面226,吸液面222用于从储液腔160吸入烟液,发热结构位于雾化面224上。气流通道210流经雾化面224并连通吸气通道142,气流通道210中的至少一段由侧面226向多孔体220的内部延伸。
吸液面222用于吸取储液腔160内的烟液,雾化面224上的发热结构用于将烟液雾化,雾化面224处产生的烟雾随气流进入气流通道210,气流通道210中的至少一段由侧面226向多孔体220的内部延伸,该段气流通道210一方面可以减小雾化面224向吸液面222的热量传导路径的截面积,另一方面,可以把雾化面224向吸液面222传导的大量热量带走,从而可以大大减少雾化面224向吸液面222传导的热量,避免多孔体220的内部过热而导致多孔体220内部液体或气体膨胀造成多孔体220内部的流体压力较大阻碍烟液传输,从而提高了多孔体220的导液效果,同时避免储液腔160中烟液从吸液面222吸收较多热量,造成能量浪费,另外还可避免烟液温度升高较多导致烟液成分发生改变。同时,由于气流会产生负压,负压可以进一步加速烟液的传输。
同时参见图7、图8,在其中一个实施例中,雾化组件200呈圆柱状,雾化组件200上开设有安装缺口240,连接组件300包括主体部340和由主体部340延伸出的卡接部360,螺纹320可以位于主体部340上,卡接部360伸入安装缺口240,使连接组件300与雾化组件200卡接。连接组件300与雾化组件200通过安装缺口240卡接,不仅方便安装,同时还能够提高结构的稳固性。
再参见图6,在一实施例中,雾化组件200还包括密封垫260,密封垫260包裹至少部分多孔体220。密封垫260覆盖吸液面222,覆盖吸液面222的密封垫260上开设有限流孔262,以起到限流的作用。密封垫260还覆盖多孔体220与外管本体122的连接处,密封多孔体220和外管本体122之间的空隙。密封垫260可以是硅胶材质,也可以是其他具有密封、隔热功能的材质。密封垫260包裹多孔体220可以减小烟液不必要的挥发,同时具有隔热作用,避免电子烟的外部过热,节省能量。硅胶垫还可以避免多孔体220与其他部件之间硬接触,从而可以避免多孔体220出现损坏。
多孔体220为一体成型结构,多孔体220包括吸液部、雾化部和位于吸液部和雾化部之间的导液部。吸液面222位于吸液部的远离导液部的一侧,雾化面224位于雾化部的远离导液部的一侧。
同时参见图9,气流通道210包括依次连通的第一子通道212、第二子通道214和第三子通道216,雾化部的侧壁、导液部的侧壁和连接组件300的内壁围成第一子通道212,第二子通道214位于导液部的内部,第二子通道214由侧面226向导液部的内部延伸,第三子通道216位于吸液部的内部,第三子通道216与吸气通道142连通。雾化面224产生雾化作用,气流带走雾化面224处的烟雾,进入第一子通道212,之后再通过第二子通道214进入第三子通道216,最后通过吸气通道142进入使用者的口中。
具体的,在一实施例中,第一子通道212和第二子通道214的数量均为两个,第三子通道216的数量为一个,第三子通道216位于吸液部的中部。两个第二子通道214的一端分别与两个第一子通道212连通,两个第二子通道214的另一端均与第三子通道216连通。在其他实施例中,第一子通道212和第二子通道214的数量也可以均为三个或四个,数量较少则方便加工,数量较多则散热效果更好。
在一实施例中,用于给发热结构供电的导线从雾化面224穿过多孔体220后,导线的尾端焊接固定在吸液面222上,确保导线稳固连接。同时参见图4,发热结构的导线虽然未在图4中示出,但图4中可见多孔体220中为导线预留的孔228。
发热结构可以为发热电路层或发热膜。其中,发热电路层可以镀在雾化面224上。发热膜可以是多孔发热膜,多孔发热膜通过气相沉积法形成在雾化面224上,多孔发热膜的厚度为0.5μm至1.5μm。多孔发热膜上的微孔,能够大大增加与烟液的接触面积,提高雾化效率。较优的,多孔发热膜的厚度为0.8μm至1μm。
多孔发热膜位于多孔体220的雾化面224上,便于雾化后的烟液从多孔体220中跑出,多孔发热膜能够使多孔体220的表面均匀的受热,因此雾化作用的温度均匀一致,不会出现局部温度低导致的雾化颗粒较大的问题,保证了雾化颗粒均匀,提高了电子烟的口感。在一实施例中,多孔发热膜上的微孔的孔径为5μm至30μm。进一步的,在一实施例中,多孔发热膜的厚度小于多孔体220上的微孔的孔径。
在一实施例中,多孔体220为多孔陶瓷体,多孔体220上的微孔的孔径为1μm至100μm,多孔体220的孔隙率为30%至83%。孔隙率的大小可以根据不同烟液的成分来调整,例如烟液的粘稠度大的,孔隙率则高一些。在一具体实施例中,多孔体220上的孔径为5μm至30μm的微孔的体积,占多孔体220上的所有微孔体积的60%以上,多孔体220的渗透效果适中。
以上所述实施例的各技术特征可以进行任意的组合,为使描述简洁,未对上述实施例中的各个技术特征所有可能的组合都进行描述,然而,只要这些技术特征的组合不存在矛盾,都应当认为是本说明书记载的范围。
以上所述实施例仅表达了本发明的几种实施方式,其描述较为具体和详细,但并不能因此而理解为对发明专利范围的限制。应当指出的是,对于本领域的普通技术人员来说,在不脱离本发明构思的前提下,还可以做出若干变形和改进,这些都属于本发明的保护范围。因此,本发明专利的保护范围应以所附权利要求为准。
