Abstract

The present invention discloses an electronic cigarette, including a cigarette holder and an atomizer, a sealing ring mounted between the cigarette holder and the atomizer. The sealing ring includes a main body and a ring-shaped flange extending form the periphery to the center of the main body; one end of the flange near the cigarette holder is provided with a first slope; and the dip direction from outside to inside of the first slope is away from the cigarette holder. The electronic cigarette enables the tar condensed on the cigarette flow back to the atomizer, which can make full use of the tar.

Claims (21)

1. An electronic cigarette, including a cigarette holder and an atomizer, a sealing ring mounted between the cigarette holder and the atomizer, wherein, the sealing ring includes a main body and a ring-shaped flange extending form the periphery to the center of the main body;

one end of the flange near the cigarette holder is provided with a first slope; the first slope surface from outside to inside is inclined along the direction being far away from the cigarette holder,

a protecting jacket wherein both the atomizer and the sealing ring are received inside the protecting jacket;

a first acute angle formed by the first slope and an axis of the protecting jacket ranges from 250 to 900,

wherein, the cigarette holder is mounted at one end of the protecting jacket;

the cigarette holder includes a cover and defines a first hole; the cover axially extends inwards to form an air guiding part,

the first hole runs through both the air guiding part and the cigarette holder to communicate with external air,

wherein, a breather pipe is received inside the atomizer, and a tar storing cotton is set around the breather pipe, and

wherein, both the first slope and the breather pipe are round, and are set coaxially with the ring-shaped flange.

2. The electronic cigarette of claim 1 , wherein,

an inner diameter of the flange is bigger than an outer diameter of the breather pipe, and a difference between the inner diameter of the flange and the outer diameter of the breather pipe is bigger or equal to 0.4 mm, and less than 14 mm.

3. The electronic cigarette of claim 2 , wherein,

a minimum of a vertical distance between the first slope and the breather pipe part is bigger than or equal to 0.5 mm, and less than 30 mm.

4. The electronic cigarette of claim 1 , wherein,

another end of the flange that is away from the cigarette holder is provided with a second slope; and the surface of the second slope from outside to inside is inclined along the direction being towards the cigarette holder.

5. The electronic cigarette of claim 4 , wherein,

a second acute angle formed by the second slope and the axis of the protecting jacket ranges from 1° to 90°.

6. The electronic cigarette of claim 1 , wherein,

an end of the flange that is away from the cigarette holder is a planar surface.

7. The electronic cigarette of claim 1 , wherein,

an area of the first hole ranges from 2 mm 2 to 7 mm 2 .
