Description

A rotary electronic cigarette for quantitatively supplying gelled e-liquid

technical field

The invention belongs to the field of electronic cigarettes, and in particular relates to an electronic cigarette for quantitatively supplying gel state smoke oil.

Background technique

People's demand for tobacco harm reduction has promoted the birth and rapid development of electronic cigarettes. E-cigarettes are made by dissolving nicotine and flavors and fragrances in polyol solvents such as glycerin or propylene glycol to make e-liquid as a smoking material, and then filling the e-liquid into the electronic cigarette device, and the e-liquid is conducted through oil-guiding cotton and so on. The element is transmitted to the atomizer in the smoking device, where the e-liquid is atomized by the electric heating element to form smoke similar to traditional cigarettes for users to smoke.

However, since the e-liquid is in liquid form, the e-liquid container, e-liquid guide cotton and electric heating element of the electronic cigarette device will inevitably have poor sealing due to the inaccurate and consistent processing dimensions of the parts in the actual assembly, or even though they leave the factory. It is sealed at the time of assembly, but the sealing is damaged due to vibration and bumping during subsequent storage, transportation and use, so more or less oil leakage will occur, affecting customer experience. For this reason, it has been proposed to use gel e-liquid instead of liquid e-liquid as the smoking material to solve the problem of oil leakage. Among the reported gel e-liquids, gelling agents are often used to solidify the liquid e-liquid into a gel (jelly-like or solid). It can be liquefied after being heated, and solidified into a gel again after cooling down.

However, a new problem arises in the actual use of gel e-juice: if only a small amount of disposable gel e-juice is used, which is melted into a liquid after being heated at one time and then fully heated and atomized, it will only be enough for the user to continuously Puffing several puffs (such as 7-8 puffs) cannot meet the user's long-term demand for smoking at any time (usually, electronic cigarettes that use liquid e-liquid, depending on the amount of liquid e-liquid stored in them, the number of puffs available for users to smoke. One hundred to thousands of puffs, and the user can turn on the electricity to heat and smoke at any time), and installing a new gel e-liquid block every time will also bring operational troubles, and lose the replacement of gel e-liquid. The original intention of liquid e-liquid to prevent leakage. However, if you use a large block of gel e-liquid, although it is completely melted enough for users to smoke hundreds to thousands of puffs, it has the following problems:

1) In order to continuously supply e-liquid to the heating element like conventional liquid e-liquid e-cigarettes, the large pieces of gel e-liquid have to be heated and melted all or most of them each time in order to transform into enough e-liquid. The liquid e-juice with high fluidity (since the user does not know how many puffs to smoke in advance, the amount of liquid e-juice in reserve should at least exceed the amount of liquid e-juice required for the user to puff 7-8 puffs in one round) to Make sure that it is sufficient to continuously supply the heating element, but after the user stops the current round of puffs, these liquid e-juices have to be condensed back to a gel state, and then heated and melted into liquid in the next puff. The spare liquid e-liquid has to be condensed back to the gel state after the next round of puffing stops, and it will be heated and melted in the next round of puffing... In the process of repeated heating and melting-cooling and condensation, the electric heating element is consumed in vain. electricity, which also causes the user to feel a delay in the first puff (because a large amount of e-liquid needs to be heated and melted to ensure that enough e-liquid is supplied to the heating element through the oil-conducting cotton), and what's more, Certain chemicals in e-liquid, such as flavors and fragrances, may also be degraded by pyrolysis due to repeated heating, resulting in peculiar smells.

2) Although there are many gelling agents that can gel liquid e-liquid, there are not many gelling agents with thermally reversible phase transition characteristics, which also severely limits the choice of gelling agents.

3) If only the required amount of gel e-liquid is heated and liquefied each time instead of heating and liquefying almost all the gel e-liquid each time, how to continuously and quantitatively supply the gel e-liquid to the The heater has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently, that is, how to supply the next amount of gel e-liquid to the heating element after the previous amount of gel e-liquid has been heated and atomized. When using liquid e-liquid as the smoking material, continuous supply is not a problem due to the fluidity of e-liquid. However, gel e-liquid is in jelly-like or solid form and has no fluidity, so how to supply it quantitatively and continuously has become a big problem. If the gel e-liquid itself is heated and melted into a liquid and then flows to the heating element through the oil-conducting cotton, only the gel e-liquid near the heating element can be melted, and the gel e-liquid far from the heating element can be melted. If it cannot be heated and cannot be melted, naturally it will not be supplied to the heating element, so it cannot be atomized, causing interruption of suction, which seriously affects the user experience.

4) The gel e-liquid may also be air-dried or oxidized by oxygen during long-term storage, which will shorten the shelf life and affect the smoking taste. In addition, if the gelling agent used is a non-vaporizable gelling agent, after the e-liquid is heated and vaporized, residues of the gelling agent components will remain, which may contaminate the internal parts of the smoking appliance.

The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned problems.
