Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to an electronic cigarette, particularly to a touch control electronic cigarette.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]Advance of science and technology has pushed many traditional products into electronic products, not only improving drawbacks and enhancing performance of the products (such as digital cameras and digital musical devices) but also conveniencing usage and reducing pollution of the products (such as automobiles and power supply systems).[0005]As early as in 2000, a Chinese has invented an electronic cigarette, wherein nicotine is diluted with propylene glycol to form a solution; the solution is atomized into gas with an ultrasonic device; the gas is inhaled by the user to his lung and then transmitted to the blood vessels. The electronic cigarette has obtained the patent in 2004. With the flourishing of anti-cigarette movements, electronic cigarettes have been spread t...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patent is about a new kind of electronic cigarette that uses touch control instead of a button to turn on. The purpose of this invention is to prevent users from accidentally pressing the button and to make it easier for them to use. The design is simple and low-cost, and the efficiency of production is high.

Problems solved by technology

However, it is probable that the user forgets turning off the electronic cigarette.

Thus, the electronic cigarette is turned on for a long time, persistently atomizing nicotine and consuming electricity.

Therefore, the current electronic cigarettes are neither economical nor convenient.
