Benefits of technology

The patent text describes an application that uses glass as a material for making cartridges and atomizers. Using glass reduces the risk of inhaling toxic substances and maintains a pure taste. Compared to metal, glass is also easier to melt and shape. Additionally, the glass can be coupled to the cartridge without using adhesive. The application also automates the manufacturing process for air ducts, plates, and oil cups, allowing for better control over temperature, size, and time. This reduces issues of instability and deformation. Overall, using glass and automating the manufacturing process improve the quality and reliability of the cartridge.

Problems solved by technology

However, it is necessary to add more lead in the brass for better turning, which may affect human health.
However, the plastic may melt due to its low melting point.
Specifically, the atomizing process requires a temperature of 250° C.-300° C. but the melting point of plastic is generally around 250° C. As such, the plastic may melt if used improperly, causing other risks.
However, the toxic material may also be released if the adhesive is melted due to overheat.

first embodiment

[0051]FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing the mechanism of coupling the electronic cigarette 100 of the first embodiment to a supporter 130.

[0052]Referring to FIG. 6, the electronic cigarette 100 of the present application may further comprises the supporter 130. The supporter 130 is capable of supporting the electronic cigarette 100.

[0053]FIG. 7A is a perspective view of an electronic cigarette 200 of a second embodiment. FIG. 7B is a perspective view of a cartridge of the electronic cigarette 200 of the second embodiment. FIG. 7C is a cross-sectional view of the cartridge of the electronic cigarette 200 of the second embodiment.

[0054]Referring to FIGS. 7A-7C, the electronic cigarette 200 comprises a mouthpiece 210 and a tank 220. The tank 220 comprises a fixer (not separately illustrated), a cartridge, a sealer (not separately illustrated), an atomizer 226, a base 227, a sealer (net separately illustrated) and an adapter 229.

[0055]The cartridge comprises an air duct 222, a plate ...

third embodiment

[0059]FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of a cartridge of an electronic cigarette 300 of a

[0060]The cartridge comprises an air duct 322, a plate 323 and an oil cup 324. The plate 323 comprises at least one hole 323a and external thread. The oil cup 324 comprises a lower oil cup 324a and an upper oil cup 324b. The lower oil cup 324a comprises an internal thread for the external thread of the plate 323 and an internal thread for the atomizer. The difference between the cartridge of the electronic cigarette 300 and the cartridge of the electronic cigarette 200 is that the plate 323 is threaded to the lower oil cup 324a rather than being welded.

[0061]FIGS. 9A-9B shows the experimental data between different material of cartridge.

[0062]Referring to FIG. 9A. the specimen in FIG. 9A is general brass of a mouthpiece for electronic cigarette. The test is examined with reference to IEC62321-4:2013+A1:2017, IEC62321−5:2013, IEC62321−7−1:2015 and is analyzed by ICP-OHS and UV-Vis.

Abstract

The present application discloses an electronic cigarette. The electronic cigarette comprises a mouthpiece and a tank. The tank is coupled to the mouth piece. The tank comprises a cartridge, an atomizer, a base and an adapter. The cartridge is made of glass and comprises an air duct, an oil cup, and a plate comprising at least one hole and coupled between the air duct and the oil cup. The atomizer is coupled to the oil cup. The base is coupled to the oil cup. The adapter is coupled to the base. A method for manufacturing the aforementioned cartridge is also disclosed. The method comprises welding the air duct and the plate; welding a lower oil cup of the oil cup with the plate; and welding an upper oil cup of the oil cup with the lower oil cup.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present application generally relates to electronic cigarette, and more particularly, to an electronic cigarette and a method for manufacturing component thereof.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Current electronic cigarettes generally utilize brass as material for cartridge. The main processing technology is turning. However, it is necessary to add more lead in the brass for better turning, which may affect human health. In addition, subsequent surface treatments such as gold electroplating or tin-cobalt alloy electroplating are required after turning, increasing the heavy metal content which may be absorbed into human body.[0003]Plastic is also utilized for manufacturing cartridge. However, the plastic may melt due to its low melting point. Specifically, the atomizing process requires a temperature of 250° C.-300° C. but the melting point of plastic is generally around 250° C. As such, the plastic may melt if used improperly, causing other ...
