Abstract

The present invention relates to an electronic cigarette, which includes a smoking component having a suction nozzle and a battery rod. The suction nozzle is configured at an end of the smoking component and is far away from the battery rod. The smoking component further comprises a receiving chamber having an atomizer base which separates the receiving chamber into an atomized cavity and a cavity. One end of the suction nozzle, being far away from the battery rod, has an air outlet, and another end of the suction nozzle, being close to the cavity, has an air inlet. The smoking component has airflow through channel connecting the air outlet, the cavity and the air inlet. The electronic cigarette of the present invention is easy to be manufactured, and the batteries in the battery rod of the electronic cigarette can be protected from be damaged by the hot smoking airflow.

Claims (17)

1. An electronic cigarette, comprising:

a smoking component;

a battery rod;

the smoking component further comprising a suction nozzle; the suction nozzle configured at an end of the smoking component and opposite to the battery rod, wherein the smoking component has a receiving chamber including an atomizer base which separates the receiving chamber into an atomized cavity and a cavity;

one end of the suction nozzle, being far away from the battery rod, has an air outlet, and another end of the suction nozzle, being close to the cavity, has an air inlet;

the smoking component has an airflow through channel connecting the air outlet, the cavity and the air inlet;

wherein the airflow through channel includes a first airflow channel formed by a hollow inside the atomizer base communicating with the atomized cavity and the air outlet the first airflow channel is communicated with the cavity;

wherein the airflow through channel further comprises a second airflow channel formed by the cavity communicating with the air inlet;

wherein the smoking component further includes a sleeve, and the suction nozzle includes a main body and a first connecting portion axially extended toward the battery rod; a diameter of the first connecting portion is less than that of the main body, and the first connecting portion has a first groove; the sleeve is sleeved on the first connecting portion, a channel surrounded by the sleeve and the first groove is defined as a first passage, and the first passage communicates with the cavity and the air inlet to cooperatively form the second airflow channel; or

wherein the smoking component further includes a sleeve, and the suction nozzle includes a main body and a first connecting portion axially extended toward the battery rod; a diameter of the first connecting portion is less than that of the main body, and an inner wall of the sleeve has a second groove; the first connecting portion is inserted in the sleeve, a channel surrounded by the first connection portion and the second groove is defined as a second passage, and the second passage communicates with the cavity and the air inlet to cooperatively form the second airflow channel.

2. The electronic cigarette of claim 1 , wherein the air inlet is a first notch, which is defined on the suction nozzle and communicates with the first groove or the second groove; the suction nozzle axially extends to the cavity.

3. The electronic cigarette of claim 1 , wherein the air inlet is a through hole defined on the suction nozzle, which is radially through the suction nozzle to the cavity, and the air inlet communicates with the cavity to cooperatively form the second airflow channel.

4. The electronic cigarette of claim 2 , wherein the suction nozzle axially extends to or beyond the cavity.

5. The electronic cigarette of claim 1 , wherein the air outlet can be axially or radially defined at an end of the suction nozzle, which is far away from the battery rod.

6. The electronic cigarette of claim 2 , wherein a cross-sectional area of the air inlet, the air outlet, the first groove, or the second groove is 2-7 mm 2 ;

wherein, the first groove and the second groove are straight lines or curves;

wherein, the electronic cigarette further includes a second connecting portion connecting the smoking component and the battery rod; the second connecting portion includes an upper connecting portion and a lower connecting portion; the upper connecting portion has an inserting portion inserted in the smoking component the end of the inserting portion contacts with an end of the atomizer base; the periphery of the end of the inserting portion contacting the atomizer base has an annular recess.
