Abstract

An electronic cigarette includes a battery assembly, an atomizer assembly and a cigarette bottle assembly. An external thread electrode is located in one end of battery assembly. An internal thread electrode is located in one end of atomizer assembly. The battery assembly and the atomizer assembly are connected by the screwthread electrode. The cigarette bottle assembly is inserted into the other end of the atomizer assembly and both form a cigarette type or cigar type body.

Claims (18)

1. A vaporizing device comprising:

a battery assembly comprising a battery and a micro-controller unit electrically connected to a circuit board within a battery assembly housing;

a first screw thread electrode on a first end of the battery assembly housing;

an atomizer assembly comprising:

a cylindrical atomizer assembly housing having a supply of liquid, a first end and a second end;

an atomizer in the cylindrical atomizer assembly housing, the atomizer having a porous body around a wire coil and with the wire coil in contact with the porous body, the porous body comprising a fiber material spaced apart from an interior cylindrical wall of the cylindrical atomizer assembly housing, and with liquid from the supply of liquid contacting the fiber material;

an airflow path in the atomizer assembly housing to an outlet at the second end of the cylindrical atomizer assembly housing;

a second screw thread electrode on the atomizer assembly housing; and

the battery assembly and the atomizer assembly mechanically connected by engagement of the first screw thread electrode with the second screw thread electrode, with electricity conducted from the battery to the wire coil through the first and second screw thread electrodes for heating the wire coil to vaporize liquid from the supply of liquid.

2. The device of claim 1 wherein the porous body is cylindrical and the wire coil is inside of the cylindrical porous body.

3. The device of claim 2 further including an opening through the cylindrical porous body.

4. The device of claim 1 further including an air intake hole adjacent to the second screw thread electrode, with the supply of liquid in between the air intake hole and the outlet of the atomizer assembly housing.

5. The device of claim 1 further including an air intake hole in the atomizer assembly housing, with the entire wire coil positioned between the air intake hole and the outlet of the atomizer assembly housing.

6. The device of claim 1 wherein the porous body has a first end and a second end, with the airflow path through a cylindrical opening at a first end of the porous body.

7. The device of claim 6 further including an air intake hole in the atomizer assembly housing and a negative pressure cavity between the air intake hole and the cylindrical opening.

8. The device of claim 1 with the second screw thread electrode at a first part of the cylindrical atomizer assembly housing having a first diameter, and with the atomizer within a second part of the cylindrical atomizer assembly housing having a second diameter equal to the first diameter.

9. The device of claim 1 with the cylindrical atomizer assembly housing comprising a metal tube.

10. The device of claim 1 wherein the battery assembly housing and the atomizer assembly housing have the same diameter.
