TECHNICAL FIELD
[0002] The present disclosure relates to an atomization generating device, and more specifically,
to an atomization generating device having a leak-proof structure.
BACKGROUND
[0003] A currently available electronic cigarette, also known as an atomization generating
device, is typically portable. The electronic cigarette typically includes a cartridge
and a main body. An upper portion of the cartridge is provided with an electronic
cigarette liquid ("E-liquid") storage tank, and a lower portion is provided with a
bottom base and an atomizing core disposed on the bottom base. A middle portion of
the bottom base is provided with an air inlet connected with the atomizing core. The
upper portion of the cartridge is provided with an air outlet, i.e., a cigarette mouthpiece,
which is connected with an external environment. The air inlet and the air outlet
are connected through a vapor channel. A side wall of the vapor channel is provided
with an E-liquid inlet connected with the E-liquid storage tank. The atomizing core
disposed on the bottom base is provided in the vapor channel. That is, the atomizing
core is connected with the external environment through the vapor channel. The atomizing
core includes an E-liquid guiding body and a heating wire. The E-liquid guiding body
absorbs the E-liquid from the E-liquid storage tank through the E-liquid inlet. The
E-liquid stored in the E-liquid storage tank continuously flows to the E-liquid guiding
body through the E-liquid inlet. After the heating wire heats the E-liquid already
absorbed by the E-liquid guiding body to atomize the E-liquid, the E-liquid guiding
body continues to absorb additional E-liquid from the E-liquid storage tank. The upper
portion of the main body of the electronic cigarette (or atomization generating device)
is provided with a receiving chamber configured to receive or accommodate the cartridge.
The lower portion of the main body is provided with an atomizing core power supply
unit including an electrical circuit board, a battery, and docking terminals. The
battery is connected with the electrical circuit board. The electrical circuit board
is connected with the docking terminals. A lower surface of the cartridge is provided
with conductive terminals configured to dock with the docking terminals of the main
body to supply electric power to the atomizing core. Because the E-liquid of the cartridge
is typically connected with the external environment through the E-liquid guiding
body, the vapor channel, and the cartridge mouthpiece, the connection is maintained
even when the electronic cigarette is not used. If, during a movement, such as when
the electronic cigarette is transported, or is carried by a user, the E-liquid may
be subject to the vibration caused by the external environment. It is likely that
the E-liquid may leak out of the electronic cigarette to the external environment
through the vapor channel and the cartridge mouthpiece, causing waste and contamination
of the environment. In addition, the user experience is adversely affected.
SUMMARY
[0004] The objective of the present disclosure is to overcome the defects or disadvantages
of the existing technologies. The present disclosure provides an atomization generating
device including a leak-proof structure, which has characteristics of E-liquid leaking
proof, and novel design.
[0005] The atomization generating device provided by embodiments of the present disclosure
includes a leak-proof structure. The leak-proof structure includes characteristics
of opening an E-liquid injection hole and opening an E-liquid flow path when in use,
and closing the E-liquid flow path when not in use to avoid E-liquid leak. The disclosed
leak-proof structure can effectively avoid the outflow and leakage of the E-liquid
due to vibration caused by the external environment when not in use. The leak-proof
structure has a simple structure and a strong utility. The structure is compact and
the operation is convenient.
[0006] The present disclosure can be realized as follows:
[0007] an atomization generating device having a leak-proof structure, including:
[0008] a cartridge including an E-liquid storage tank disposed at an upper portion, a bottom
base disposed at a lower portion, and a vapor channel configured to connect the upper
portion and the lower portion of the cartridge, meaning the vapor channel extends
throughout the upper portion and the lower portion. The vapor channel is connected
with an external environment through a cartridge mouthpiece disposed at a top end
of the vapor channel. An atomizing core is disposed on the bottom base. The atomizing
core is disposed at a bottom end of the vapor channel and is connected with the external
environment. The atomizing core includes an E-liquid inlet connected with the E-liquid
storage tank.
[0009] a main body including a receiving chamber provided at an upper portion for receiving
the cartridge. A power supply unit is provided at a lower portion of the main body
and configured to provide electric power to the atomizing core;
[0010] in the disclosed configuration, the cartridge also includes a leak-proof structure.
The leak-proof structure is configured to be mechanically co-movable with the cartridge
mouthpiece to open and close the E-liquid inlet from inside the atomization generating
device. The leak-proof structure is configured with a first position and a second
position. When the leak-proof structure is at the first position, the cartridge mouthpiece
is at a non-operating position, and the E-liquid inlet of the atomizing core is closed
to block the E-liquid from entering the atomizing core. When the leak-proof structure
is at the second position, the cartridge mouthpiece is at an operating position, and
the E-liquid inlet of the atomizing core is open to guide the E-liquid into the atomizing
core.
[0011] In some embodiments, a center line of the cartridge can be regarded as an axis of
the atomization generating device. The axis is configured in the up-down direction.
The switch between the non-operating position and the operating position of the cartridge
mouthpiece can be a rotation around the axis or a translation along the axis.
[0012] Through the co-motion between the leak-proof structure and the cartridge mouthpiece,
the supply and block of the E-liquid can be realized through simple assembling operation
of the cartridge or the operation of the electronic cigarette. Through simple daily
use operations, and without relying on other tools, a user can conveniently open and
close the E-liquid inlet of the atomizing core inside the atomization generating device.
Leakage phenomenon that may be caused by the open and close operations of the E-liquid
flow path can be effectively avoided. The disclosed leak-proof structure has a simple
structure and a strong utility. The structure is compact, and the operations are convenient.
[0013] The leak-proof structure is based on the mechanical co-motion configuration with
the cartridge mouthpiece. That is, the leak-proof structure is mechanically linked
with the cartridge mouthpiece. The two structures can synchronously operate to realize
the switch respective relative positions. Therefore, simple operations performed external
to the atomization generating device can realize the open and close of the E-liquid
flow path, and the open and close of an air flow path inside the atomization generating
device. The disclosed mechanical co-motion structure can maintain the independency
of the cartridge. Through the double-safety configurations, i.e., under the condition
of the internal structure of the cartridge already having a certain leak-proof function,
by adding the dedicated leak-proof structure mechanically co-movable with the cartridge
mouthpiece at the cartridge, the leak-proof function of the cartridge can be further
improved, thereby realizing a double-safety structure for the leak-proof function
of the cartridge. Compared to the existing technologies, the technical solution provided
by the present disclosure can significantly improve the sealing performance of the
cartridge for the E-liquid. The E-liquid is not in contact with the external environment
whether in transportation or in an idle state, thereby maintaining the original texture
of the E-liquid. As a result, the degradation in the texture of the E-liquid caused
by the evaporation of the E-liquid itself can be avoided. Through the mechanical co-motion
structure design, it makes it clearer for the user to recognize when the E-liquid
can be used. This provides a reminder function. After the user obtains the atomization
generating device, i.e., the electronic cigarette, the user can immediately know the
state of the electronic cigarette. If the electronic cigarette is in an idle state,
the user may switch the electronic cigarette to the operating state to use the electronic
cigarette, and does not need to determine whether the E-liquid flow path is open.
After the use, the user may conveniently switch the atomization generating device,
i.e., the electronic cigarette, to the idle state, i.e., to close the air flow path
of the electronic cigarette until the next switch to the operating state. The disclosed
structure can effectively maintain the texture of the electronic cigarette, improve
the performance and lifetime of the electronic cigarette. In the meantime, the disclosed
structure can effectively solve the issues of E-liquid leakage causing the waste and
contamination, and adversely affecting the user experience.
[0014] According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the atomization generating device
having the leak-proof structure can be a flip leak-proof style atomization generating
device. In this configuration, the leak-proof structure includes at least a movable
frame disposed on the cartridge and a receiving hole disposed at the receiving chamber
of the main body.
[0015] The movable frame includes a main body member. A lower surface of the main body member
is provided with a slide-holding member and an insertion connection member. A lower
portion of the insertion connection member is provided with a blocking member. An
elastic member is sleeve-fit onto the insertion connection member. The main body member
is hollow inside. The atomizing core is disposed at the main body member. The slide-holding
member is configured to be up-down movably disposed at a through hole. The insertion
connection member is configured to be up-down movably inserted in a first insertion
connection hole. The blocking member is up-down movably disposed at a second insertion
connection hole. An upper end of the elastic member is configured to abut against
a lower surface of a blocking panel. A lower end of the elastic member is configured
to abut against the blocking member. The blocking member is configured to be exposed
out of the lower surface of a bottom panel.
[0016] In the disclosed configuration, the receiving hole is provided at a bottom wall of
the receiving chamber of the main body. When the bottom portion of the cartridge is
mounted into the receiving chamber, the blocking member enters the receiving hole,
and the E-liquid inlet is exposed. When the cartridge and the cartridge mouthpiece
are rotated 180 degrees and mounted into the receiving chamber, i.e., when the cartridge
and the cartridge mouthpiece are rotated 180 degrees in a horizontal plane, the blocking
member is pressed by the bottom wall of the receiving chamber, causing the movable
frame to move upwardly, such that the main body member wraps and seals the E-liquid
inlet.
[0017] An upper portion of the main body member is provided with a snap-fitting groove.
The snap-fitting groove extends downwardly throughout the slide-holding member. The
atomizing core is up-down movably disposed in the snap-fitting groove. A lower portion
of the atomizing core abuts against an upper surface of the bottom panel.
[0018] The blocking panel extends downwardly at the through hole to form a connection member.
An inner wall of the connection member abuts against an outer wall of the slide-holding
member. A lower portion of the connection member abuts against the upper surface of
the bottom panel.
[0019] The bottom panel has a rectangular shape. There are two second insertion connection
holes. A line connecting the two insertion connection holes can be defined as L1.
A line connecting two middle points of two opposing sides of the bottom panel can
be defined as L2. L1 and L2 are not on the same line.
[0020] The receiving chamber is formed downwardly from an upper surface of the main body.
The receiving chamber has a rectangular shape. There are two receiving holes. A line
connecting the two receiving holes can be defined as L3. A line connecting two middle
points on two opposing sides of the receiving chamber can be defined as L4. L3 and
L4 are not on the same line.
[0021] The cartridge also includes a second air inlet. The main body includes a first air
inlet. The first air inlet corresponds to the second air inlet. A projection of the
second air inlet in the vertical direction and the second insertion connection hole
are on the same line.
[0022] In the present disclosure, when the cartridge is mounted into the receiving chamber
along the axis, the blocking member enters the receiving hole. The E-liquid inlet
is exposed. At this moment, the E-liquid can flow into the atomizing core through
the E-liquid inlet. When the cartridge is mounted into the receiving chamber along
the axis, the blocking member enters the receiving hole, and the E-liquid inlet of
the atomizing core is exposed. When the cartridge is rotated around the axis for 180
degrees and is mounted into the receiving chamber, the blocking member is pressed,
causing the movable frame to move upwardly. The main body member wraps the E-liquid
inlet of the atomizing core. This configuration can effectively avoid the phenomenon
of E-liquid leaks out due to vibration of the external environment when not in use.
The disclosed configuration has a simple structure and a strong utility. The structure
is compact and the operations are convenient.
[0023] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the atomization generating
device having the leak-proof structure may be a clutch lock style atomization generating
device. In this device, the leak-proof structure includes at least a movable frame
disposed on the cartridge and a protrusion member disposed on the receiving chamber
of the main body.
[0024] The cartridge of the clutch lock style atomization generating device includes:
[0025] an accommodation chamber. An inner wall of the accommodation chamber is provided
with a blocking panel. The blocking panel includes, from an upper portion to a lower
portion, a through hole and a fist insertion connection hole. A bottom portion of
the accommodation chamber is provided with a bottom panel. The bottom panel is provided
with a second insertion connection hole. The upper portion of the accommodation chamber
is provided with an upper cover. The vapor channel is provided on the upper cover.

abuts against the upper surface of the blocking panel. A slide-holding member extends
downwardly from an outer side of the main body member. A blocking member extends outwardly
from the slide-holding member. The slide-holding member extends through the first
insertion connection hole and the second insertion connection hole. The blocking member
is located between the blocking panel and the bottom panel. A press-connection member
extends upwardly from an inner side of the main body member.
[0027] In the disclosed configuration, the atomizing core is disposed at the through hole
and fixed at the bottom end of the vapor channel. The E-liquid inlet of the atomizing
core is located above the blocking panel.
[0028] In the disclosed configuration, the protrusion member includes a first protrusion
member and a second protrusion member. The first protrusion member and the second
protrusion member protrude from the bottom wall of the receiving chamber.
[0029] In the disclosed configuration, when the cartridge is mounted into the receiving
space along the axis, the first protrusion member presses a side of the slide-holding
member. The slide-holding member moves inwardly along the blocking panel. The press-connection
member seals the E-liquid inlet. When the cartridge and the cartridge mouthpiece are
rotated 180 degrees and are mounted into the receiving space, i.e., when the cartridge
and the cartridge mouthpiece are rotated 180 degrees in a horizontal plane, the second
protrusion member of the cartridge presses another side of the slide-holding member.
The slide-holding member moves outwardly along the blocking panel. The press-connection
member separates from the E-liquid inlet.
[0030] In some embodiments, two movable frames are opposingly disposed. The bottom portion
of the slide-holding member includes an inner slanted surface and an outer slanted
surface. Two first protrusion members are located on the straight line L1. Two second
protrusion members are located on the straight line L2. The two straight lines L1
and L2 are respectively located at two sides of a center line of the receiving chamber.
The first protrusion members are closer to an outer side of the receiving chamber
than the second protrusion members.
[0031] In some embodiments, the press-connection member is lower than the bottom end of
the vapor channel. The press-connection member is higher than a height of the E-liquid
inlet. The E-liquid inlet is disposed to face in a direction of movement of the movable
frames.
[0032] In some embodiments, the press-connection member includes a half-circle shape. The
atomizing core includes an atomizing shell. The E-liquid inlet is disposed at the
atomizing shell. Inside the atomizing shell are disposed with a heating wire and an
E-liquid guiding cotton. The E-liquid guiding cotton winds around the heating wire.
The E-liquid guiding cotton corresponds with the E-liquid inlet.
[0033] According to the present disclosure, when the cartridge is mounted into the receiving
space along the axis, the first protrusion member presses a side of the slide-holding
member. The slide-holding member moves inwardly along the blocking panel. The press-connection
member seals the E-liquid inlet. When the cartridge is rotates 180 degrees around
the axis and mounted into the receiving space, the second protrusion member presses
another side of the slide-holding member. The slide-holding member moves outwardly
along the blocking panel. The press-connection member separates from the E-liquid
inlet. When not in use, the press-connection member seals the E-liquid inlet. When
in use, the press-connection member separates from the E-liquid inlet. The disclosed
structure can effectively avoid the E-liquid leakage phenomenon due to vibration of
the external environment when not in use. The disclosed structure is simple, and has
a strong utility. The structure is compact and the operations are convenient.
[0034] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the atomization generating
device having the leak-proof structure can be a flip cover shell style atomization
generating device. In this device, the leak-proof structure includes at least a sliding
groove and a snap-fitting shell engageable with the sliding groove that are disposed
on the main body.
[0035] The cartridge includes an outer shell. A top portion of the outer shell is provided
with a top panel. The cartridge mouthpiece is up-down movably disposed at the top
panel. The outer shell also includes a bottom panel disposed at an opening of a lower
portion of the outer shell. An upper portion of the bottom panel is mounted with the
atomizing core. The top panel, the outer shell, the bottom panel, the vapor channel,
and the atomizing core surroundingly form an E-liquid storage tank.
[0036] A side wall of the main body is provided with the sliding groove. The sliding groove
includes a first snap-holding position and a second snap-holding position.
[0037] The snap-fitting shell of the atomization generating device is configured to cover
the cartridge mouthpiece. The snap-fitting shell includes a connection arm and a cap
cover. When the connection arm is at the first snap-holding position, the cap cover
presses the cartridge mouthpiece. The vapor channel moves downwardly along the axis
to seal the E-liquid inlet. When the connection arm is at the second snap-holding
position, the cartridge mouthpiece moves upwardly along the axis, i.e., the cartridge
mouthpiece moves upwardly along the axis in the vertical plane. The vapor channel
moves upwardly along the axis, such that the E-liquid inlet is exposed in the E-liquid
storage tank.
[0038] A snap-fitting groove is depressingly disposed downwardly from the top panel. The
vapor channel extends into the snap-fitting groove. A spring is provided between a
lower surface of the cartridge mouthpiece and an upper surface of the snap-fitting
groove.
[0039] The lower portion of the bottom panel is mounted with a bottom base. The lower portion
of the atomizing core is mounted to the bottom base. An upper portion of the bottom
base is depressingly provided with a reserved space. The atomizing core includes an
atomizing shell, a heating body, and an E-liquid guiding body. The E-liquid inlet
is disposed at the atomizing shell. The heating body and the E-liquid guiding body
are disposed at the atomizing shell.
[0040] The lower portion of the atomizing shell is mounted with a rubber pad. A metal electrode
is provided inside the rubber pad.
[0041] The first snap-holding position is located above the second snap-holding position.
When the connection arm is located at the second snap-holding position, the cap cover
snap-fits with the lower portion of the main body.
[0042] When the connection arm is at the first snap-holding position, the cap cover presses
the cartridge mouthpiece. The vapor channel moves downwardly to seal the E-liquid
inlet. At this moment, the electronic cigarette cannot be used. The E-liquid cannot
enter the atomizing core through the E-liquid storage tank. This state is suitable
for transportation. This state can also avoid the situation of E-liquid leakage due
to shake or vibration. When the connection arm is at the second snap-holding position,
the cartridge mouthpiece moves upwardly. The vapor channel moves upwardly such that
the E-liquid inlet is exposed in the E-liquid storage tank. The E-liquid in the E-liquid
storage tank enters the atomizing core through the E-liquid inlet. A normal use of
the electronic cigarette can be performed at this moment. The disclosed structure
can avoid the phenomenon of E-liquid leakage due to the vibration of the external
environment when not in use. The structure is simple, has a strong utility. In addition,
the structure is compact and the operations are convenient.
[0043] According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the atomization generating
device having the leak-proof structure can be a semi-idle rotation style atomization
generating device. The leak-proof structure includes at least a sliding groove disposed
at an upper portion of the vapor channel and a blocking member disposed on the cartridge
mouthpiece. The blocking member is inserted into the sliding groove and is configured
to push the sliding groove to rotate.
[0044] The cartridge of the atomization generating device includes an outer shell. The top
portion of the outer shell is mounted with a top panel. The vapor channel is movably
mounted to the top panel. The upper portion of the vapor channel is provided with
a sliding groove. The sliding groove is horizontally disposed. The sliding groove
occupies about a length of 1/4 of a circumference of a circle where the vapor channel
is located. The atomization generating device includes a bottom panel mounted at an
opening of a lower portion of the outer shell. The upper portion of the bottom panel
is mounted with the atomizing core. The side wall of the atomizing core is provided
with a first E-liquid inlet. The side wall of the vapor channel is provided with a
second E-liquid inlet. The top panel, the outer shell, the bottom panel, the vapor
channel, and the atomizing core surroundingly form the E-liquid storage tank.
[0045] The cartridge mouthpiece is independently disposed at the cartridge. The cartridge
mouthpiece includes an inhalation channel. A blocking member is disposed inside the
inhalation channel. The blocking member is inserted into the sliding groove. The inhalation
channel is connected with the vapor channel.
[0046] When not in use, the first E-liquid inlet and the second E-liquid inlet are interposingly
disposed. When in use, the blocking member semi-idle rotates for 90 degrees inside
the sliding groove. The vapor channel does not rotate. Then the blocking member pushes
the sliding groove to rotate, such that the vapor channel and the cartridge mouthpiece
rotate for 90 degrees around the axis, i.e., the cartridge mouthpiece rotates in the
horizontal plane for 180 degrees in accumulation. The first E-liquid inlet and the
second E-liquid inlet are connected.
[0047] In some embodiments, a snap-fitting groove is depressingly disposed downwardly from
the top panel. The vapor channel can rotatably inserts into the snap-fitting groove.
The sliding groove of the vapor channel is exposed to the snap-fitting groove.
[0048] In some embodiments, a trough is provided downwardly from the upper surface of the
vapor channel. The trough is connected with the sliding groove. The trough is located
at an end of the sliding groove.
[0049] In some embodiments, a partition panel is mounted inside the outer shell. The partition
panel is located between the bottom panel and the top panel. The partition panel is
provided with a fixing hole. The atomizing core is fixed to the fixing hole. The E-liquid
inlet is located above the partition panel. The partition panel, the bottom panel,
and the outer shell form a reserved E-liquid tank. A first air intake channel is provided
at a side wall of the outer shell below the partition panel. The atomizing core is
provided with a second air intake channel. The second air intake channel is located
below the partition panel. The second air intake channel extends first inwardly and
then upwardly. The second air intake channel and the vapor channel are connected.
[0050] In some embodiments, the blocking member is located at a middle position of the inhalation
channel. The blocking member has gaps with the two ends of the inhalation channel.
[0051] When not in use, the first E-liquid hole and the second E-liquid hole are interposingly
disposed. When in use, the blocking member idle-rotates for 90 degrees around the
axis in the sliding groove. The vapor channel does not rotate. Then the blocking member
presses the sliding groove to rotate, causing the vapor channel and the cartridge
mouthpiece to rotate for 90 degrees together around the axis. The first E-liquid inlet
and the second E-liquid inlet are connected. The disclosed structure can effectively
avoid the E-liquid outflow and leakage phenomenon due to the vibration of the external
environment when not in use. The disclosed structure is simple and has a strong utility.
The structure is compact and the operations are convenient.

atomizing core 15. An E-liquid inlet 151 may be provided at the atomizing core 15.
The slide-holding member 22 may be configured to up-down movably disposed at the through
hole 121. The insertion connection member 23 may be up-down movably inserted into
the first insertion connection hole 123. The blocking member 24 may be up-down movably
mounted at the second insertion connection hole 131. An upper end of the spring 25
may abut against a lower surface of the blocking panel 12. A lower end of the spring
25 may abut against the blocking member 24. The blocking member 24 may be exposed
from a lower surface of the bottom panel 13. The device may also include a main body
3. An upper portion of the main body 3 may be provided with a receiving chamber 31.
A bottom wall of the receiving chamber 31 may be provided with a receiving hole 32.
In this configuration, when the cartridge 1 is mounted into the receiving chamber
31 along the axis, the blocking member 24 enters the receiving hole 32, and the E-liquid
inlet 151 is exposed. When the cartridge 1 rotates for 180 degrees around the axis
and is mounted into the receiving chamber 31, the blocking member 24 is subject to
a pressing force of the bottom wall of the receiving chamber 31, causing the movable
frame 20 to move upwardly. The main body member 21 wraps the E-liquid inlet 151. The
axis can be understood as a straight line extending in the up-down direction, such
as a plumb line. The cartridge 1 may be mounted into the receiving chamber 31 in a
direction opposite to the plumb line. When the blocking member 24 enters the receiving
hole 32, the E-liquid can enter the atomizing core 15 (the heating member). If the
cartridge 1 is rotated for 180 degrees around the plumb line, i.e., the cartridge
and the cartridge mouthpiece are rotated for 180 degrees within a horizontal plane,
the cartridge 1 can also be mounted into the receiving chamber 31. However, the blocking
member 24 may not enter the receiving hole 32. At this moment, the blocking member
24 is subject to a pressing force from the bottom wall, causing the blocking member
24 to move upwardly. When the cartridge is retrieved from the receiving chamber, the
spring 25 pushes the blocking member 24 of the movable frame, causing the blocking
member 24 to move downwardly. An upper end of the spring 25 presses a lower surface
of the blocking panel 12. The movable frame moves downwardly. The slide-holding member
slides downwardly, such that the E-liquid inlet is exposed, returning to a position
under a normal use.
[0055] A snap-fitting groove 26 may be downwardly provided from an upper surface of the
main body member 21. The snap-fitting groove 26 may extend downwardly throughout the
slide-holding member 22. The atomizing core 15 may be up-down movably mounted at the
snap-fitting groove 26. The lower portion of the atomizing core 15 may abut against
the upper surface of the bottom panel 13. A connection member 122 may downwardly extend
from the block panel 12 at the through hole 121. The inner wall of the connection
member 122 may abut against the outer wall of the slide-holding member 22. The lower
end of the connection member 122 may abut against the upper surface of the bottom
panel 13.
[0056] The bottom panel 13 may have a rectangular shape. There are two second insertion
connection holes 131. A line connecting the two second insertion connection holes
131 may be defined as L1. A line connecting two middle points on two opposing sides
of the bottom panel 13 may be defined as L2. L1 and L2 are not on the same line. The
receiving chamber 31 may be formed downwardly from the upper surface of the main body
3. The receiving chamber 31 may have a rectangular prism shape.
[0057] Two receiving holes 32 may be provided. A line connecting the two receiving holes
32 may be defined as L3. A line connecting two middle points on two opposing sides
of the receiving chamber 31 may be defined as L4. L3 and L4 are not on the same line.
A first air inlet 33 may be provided at the main body 3. A second air inlet 18 may
be provided at the cartridge 1. The first air inlet 33 may correspond to the second
air inlet 18. The projection of the second air inlet 18 in the vertical direction
may be on the same line as the second insertion hole 131. This type of interposing
configuration, or called biased configuration, may effectively ensure that only one
position is correct when the cartridge 1 is inserted into the receiving chamber 31.
Only at the correct position can the electronic cigarette be used normally. The position
where the blocking member 24 enters the receiving hole 32 is the correct position.
At this moment, the first air inlet 33 and the second air inlet 18 may coincide with
one another. External air may enter the atomizing core 15, to carry away the atomized
E-liquid. The main body 3 may also be provided with a battery, a control panel, and
conductive terminals. The battery is a power source. The control panel may control
the output of the electrical current. The battery may be connected with the control
panel. The control panel may be connected with the conductive terminals. The cartridge
1 may also be provided with connection terminals. The connection terminals may be
connected with the atomizing core 15 through lead wires to provide electric energy
for the atomizing core 15.

from an outer side of the main body member 21. A blocking member 24 may extend outwardly
from the slide-holding member 22. The slide-holding member 22 may extend through the
first insertion connection hole 123 and the second insertion connection hole 131.
The blocking member 24 may be located between the blocking panel 12 and the bottom
panel 13. A press-connection member 27 may extend upwardly from an inner side of the
main body member 21. The device may also include an atomizing core 15 mounted at the
through hole 121, such that the atomizing core 15 may be fixed at the bottom end of
the vapor channel 16. The atomizing core 15 may include an E-liquid inlet 151. The
E-liquid inlet 151 may be located above the blocking panel 12. The device may include
a main body 3. A receiving chamber 31 may be disposed at an upper portion of the main
body 3. A first protrusion member 311 and a second protrusion member 312 may protrude
from a bottom wall of the receiving chamber 31. When the cartridge 1 is mounted into
the receiving chamber 31 along the axis A, the first protrusion member 311 may press
a side of the slide-holding member 22. The slide-holding member 22 may move inwardly
along the blocking panel 12. The press-connection member 27 may seal the E-liquid
inlet 151. When the cartridge 1 is rotated for 180 degrees around the axis A and is
mounted into the receiving chamber 31, i.e., when the cartridge and the cartridge
mouthpiece are rotated for 180 degrees in the horizontal plane, the second protrusion
member 312 may press a side of the slide-holding member 22. The slide-holding member
22 may move outwardly along the blocking panel 12. The press-connection member 27
may separate from the E-liquid inlet 151.
[0059] The two movable frames 20 may be opposingly disposed. A bottom portion of the slide-holding
member 22 may include an inner slanted surface 24 and an outer slanted surface 25.
Two first protrusion members 311 may be located on the straight line L1. Two second
protrusion members 312 may be located on the straight line L2. The straight line L1
and the straight line L2 may be respectively located at two sides of the center line
of the receiving chamber 31. The first protrusion members 311 may be closer to an
outer side of the receiving chamber 31 than the second protrusion members 312.
[0060] The press-connection member 27 may be lower than a bottom end of the vapor channel
16. The press-connection member 27 may be higher than the height of the E-liquid inlet
151. The E-liquid inlet 151 may face in a direction of movement of the movable members.
[0061] The press-connection member 27 may include a half-circle shape. The atomizing core
15 may include an atomizing shell. The E-liquid inlet 151 may be provided at the atomizing
shell. A heating wire and an E-liquid guiding cotton may be provided inside the atomizing
shell. The E-liquid guiding cotton may wind around the heating wire. The E-liquid
guiding cotton may correspond to the E-liquid inlet 151.
[0062] According to the present disclosure, when the cartridge 1 is mounted into the receiving
chamber 31 along the axis A, the axis A may be understood as the plumb line. When
the cartridge 1 is vertically mounted into the receiving chamber 31 in the up-down
direction, the first protrusion member 311 may press a side of the slide-holding member
22. The first protrusion member 311 may press an outer slanted surface 222. The slide-holding
member 22 may move inwardly along the blocking panel 12. The press-connection member
27 may seal the E-liquid inlet 151. In this situation, the cartridge 1 and the main
body 3 may be transported together, to effectively avoid the E-liquid leakage caused
by vibration. When the cartridge 1 is rotated for 180 degrees and mounted into the
receiving chamber 31, i.e., when the cartridge and the cartridge mouthpiece are rotated
for 180 degrees within the horizontal plane, i.e., horizontally rotated for 180 degrees
around the plumb line (which serves as a rotation axis), the second protrusion member
312 may press another side of the slide-holding member 22. The second protrusion member
312 may press the inner slanted surface 221. The slide-holding member 22 may move
outwardly along the blocking panel 12. The press-connection member 27 may separate
from the E-liquid inlet 151. The E-liquid may enter the E-liquid inlet 151 through
a gap between the press-connection member 27 and the atomizing shell, and then enter
the E-liquid cotton through the E-liquid inlet 151, such that the heating wire may
atomize the E-liquid. The atomized E-liquid may flow out through the vapor channel
16 to the cartridge mouthpiece 17 for consumption by a user. When not in use, the
press-connection member 27 may seal the E-liquid inlet 151. When in use, the press-connection
member 27 may separate from the E-liquid inlet 151. The disclosed structure can effectively
avoid the E-liquid flow out and leak phenomenon due to vibration of external environment
when not in use. The disclosed structure is simple and has a strong utility. The structure
is compact and the operations are convenient.
[0063] As shown in FIG. 16 - FIG. 24, the present disclosure provides a flip cover shell

of the bottom panel 13. The atomizing core 15 and the cartridge mouthpiece 17 may
be connected through the vapor channel 16. An E-liquid inlet 151 may be disposed at
a side wall of the atomizing core 15. The top panel 102, the outer shell 10, the bottom
panel 13, the vapor channel 16, and the atomizing core surroundingly form an E-liquid
storage tank 19. The device may also include a main body 3. A receiving chamber 31
may be disposed at an upper portion of the main body 3. A battery, an electrical circuit
board, and conductive terminals may be disposed inside the main body 3. The battery
may be connected with the electrical circuit board. The electrical circuit board may
be connected with the conductive terminals. The conductive terminals may be exposed
in the receiving chamber 31. A sliding groove 34 may be disposed at a side wall of
the main body 3. The sliding groove 34 may include a first snap-holding position 341
and a second snap-holding position 342. The device may also include a snap-fitting
shell 4 including a connection arm 42 and a cap cover 41. When the connection arm
42 is at the first snap-holding position 341, the cap cover 41 may press the cartridge
mouthpiece 17. The vapor channel 16 moves downwardly along the axis to seal the E-liquid
inlet 151. When the connection arm 42 is at the second snap-holding position 342,
the cartridge mouthpiece 17 moves upwardly along the axis. The vapor channel 16 moves
upwardly along the axis, such that the E-liquid inlet 151 is exposed to the E-liquid
storage tank 19.
[0064] A snap-fitting groove 103 may be depressingly disposed downwardly from the top panel
102. The vapor channel 16 may be inserted at the snap-fitting groove 103. An elastic
member, such as a spring 25, may be disposed between a lower surface of the cartridge
mouthpiece 17 and an upper surface of the snap-fitting groove 103. When the cartridge

The atomizing core 15 may include an atomizing shell 152, a heating body, and an E-liquid
guiding body. The E-liquid inlet 151 may be disposed at the atomizing shell 152. The
heating body and the E-liquid guiding body may be mounted at the atomizing shell 152.
[0066] A rubber pad 153 may be mounted at a lower portion of the atomizing shell 152. A
metal electrode 154 is disposed inside the rubber pad 153. The metal electrode 154
may be connected with the conductive terminals to conduct electricity. The first snap-holding
position 341 may be located above the second snap-holding position 342. When the connection
arm 42 is at the second snap-holding position 342, the cap cover 41 may snap-fit with
a lower portion of the main body 3.
[0067] When the connection arm 42 is at the first snap-holding position 341, the cap cover
41 may press the cartridge mouthpiece 17. The vapor channel 16 may move downwardly
to seal the E-liquid inlet 151. At this moment, the electronic cigarette cannot be
used normally. The E-liquid cannot enter the atomizing core 15 through the E-liquid
storage tank 19. This state is suitable for transportation. This state can avoid the
situation of E-liquid leakage due to vibration and shaking. When the connection arm
42 is at the second snap-holding position 342, the cartridge mouthpiece 17 moves upwardly,
i.e., the cartridge mouthpiece moves upwardly in the vertical plane. The vapor channel
16 moves upwardly, such that the E-liquid inlet 151 is exposed at the E-liquid storage
tank 19. The E-liquid stored in the E-liquid storage tank 19 may flow into the atomizing
core 15 through the E-liquid inlet 151, thereby realizing the normal use of the electronic
cigarette. The connection arm may move upwardly from the first snap-holding position
341. Then the connection arm 42 may be rotated for 180 degrees, such that the connection
arm 42 is rotated to a lower position. The connection arm 42 may be pushed upwardly.
The connection arm 42 moves upwardly to the second snap-holding position 342, thereby
accomplishing the switch between the first snap-holding position 341 and the second
snap-holding position 342.
[0068] As shown in FIG. 25 - FIG. 28, the present disclosure provides a semi-idle rotation
style atomization generating device, including: a cartridge 1 including an outer shell
10. A top panel 102 may be disposed at a top portion of the outer shell 10. A vapor

of the atomizing core 15. A second E-liquid inlet 161 may be disposed at a side wall
of the vapor channel 16. The top panel 102, the outer shell 10, the bottom panel 101,
the vapor channel 16, and the atomizing core 15 surroundingly form an E-liquid storage
tank 19. The device may also include a main body 3. A receiving chamber 31 may be
disposed at an upper portion of the main body 3. A battery, an electrical circuit
board, and conductive terminals may be disposed inside the main body 3. The battery
may be connected with the electrical circuit board. The electrical circuit board may
be connected with the conductive terminals. The conductive terminals may be exposed
in the receiving chamber 31. The device may also include a cartridge mouthpiece 17.
The cartridge mouthpiece 17 may include a inhalation channel 171. A blocking member
172 may be disposed inside the inhalation channel 171. The blocking member 172 may
be inserted into the sliding rail 162. The inhalation channel 171 may be connected
with the vapor channel 16.
[0069] When not in use, the first E-liquid inlet 151 and the second E-liquid inlet 161 may
be interposingly disposed. When in use, the blocking member 172 may idle-rotate for
90 degrees around the axis in the sliding rail 162. The vapor channel 16 may not rotate.
Then the blocking member 172 may push the sliding rail 162 to rotate, causing the
vapor channel 16 and the cartridge mouthpiece 17 to rotate together for 90 degrees
around the axis. That is, the cartridge mouthpiece may rotate in the horizontal plane
around the axis for 180 degrees in accumulation. The first E-liquid inlet 151 and
the second E-liquid inlet 161 may be connected.
[0070] A snap-fitting groove 103 may be depressingly disposed downwardly from the top panel
102. The vapor channel 16 may be rotatably inserted into the snap-fitting groove 103.
The sliding rail 162 of the vapor channel 16 may be exposed to the snap-fitting groove
103. A trough 163 may be disposed downwardly from an upper surface of the vapor channel
16. The trough 163 may be connected with the sliding rail 162, and may be located
at an end of the sliding rail 162. The blocking member 172 may be located at a middle
position of the inhalation channel. Gaps may exist between the blocking member and
two ends of the inhalation channel.
[0071] A partition panel 104 may be mounted inside the outer shell 10. The partition panel
104 may be located between the bottom panel 101 and the top panel 102. The partition
panel 104 may be provided with a fixing hole 105. The atomizing core 15 may be fixed
at the fixing hole 105. The first E-liquid inlet 151 may be located above the partition
panel 104. The partition panel 104, the bottom panel 101, and the outer shell 10 may
form a reserved E-liquid tank. A first air intake channel 106 may be disposed at a
side wall of the outer shell 10 located below the partition panel 104. A second air
intake channel 155 may be disposed at the atomizing core 15. The second air intake
channel 155 may be located below the partition panel 104. The second air intake channel
155 may extend first inwardly and then upwardly. The second air intake channel 155
may be connected with the vapor channel 16. A heating body and an E-liquid guiding
body may be disposed inside the atomizing core 15. The conductive terminals may be
connected with the heating body (e.g., a heating wire).
[0072] When in use, the cartridge mouthpiece 17 may be rotated. The blocking member 172
may idle-rotate for 90 degrees around the axis in the sliding rail 162. During this
process, the vapor channel 16 may not rotate. At this moment, the blocking member
172 may be located at an edge of the sliding rail 162. When the rotation of the cartridge
mouthpiece 17 is continued, the blocking member 172 may push the sliding rail 162
to rotate. The blocking member 172 and the sliding rail 162 may rotate together, such
that the vapor channel 16 and the cartridge mouthpiece 17 may together rotate for
90 degrees around the axis. The first E-liquid inlet 151 and the second E-liquid inlet
161 may be connected. At this moment, the cartridge mouthpiece 17 may be used normally
for the smoking. During this process, the cartridge mouthpiece 17 is rotated for 180
degrees around the axis. The atomizing core 15 can atomize the E-liquid stored in
the E-liquid storage tank 19 in a normal manner. Atomized E-liquid may flow upwardly
along the vapor channel 16, and enter the cartridge mouthpiece 17 through the gap
between the sliding rail 162 and the blocking member 172. External air may enter the
atomizing core 15 through the first air intake channel 106 and the second air intake
channel 155, to carry away the atomized E-liquid. When the cartridge mouthpiece 17
is reversely rotated around the axis for 180 degrees, the blocking member 172 may
be rotated for 180 degrees around the axis, in the first 90 degrees the blocking member
172 is idle-rotating, and in the latter 190 degrees, the blocking member 172 causes
the vapor channel 16 to rotate in a reverse direction around the axis, such that the
first E-liquid inlet 151 and the second E-liquid inlet 161 are interposingly disposed,
thereby avoiding the E-liquid stored in the E-liquid storage tank 19 entering into
the atomizing core 15. The above described are some embodiments of the present disclosure,
and are not intended to limit the scope of the same, which is defined by the following
claims.
[0073] The structure disclosed in the present disclosure can effectively avoid the E-liquid
