- As shown in
Figs. 1 and2 , an electronic cigarette vaporizer provided according to a first embodiment of the present invention comprises avaporizer body 10, afilter tip 30 and afirst sticker 20. Thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30 are coaxially arranged and are coplanar axially. Ends of thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30 are abutted against each other, and then thefirst sticker 20 is wrapped around the whole peripheral surfaces of thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30. - The
vaporizer body 10 comprises avaporizer tube 110 and asealing element 120, and thesealing element 120 is sleeved in thevaporizer tube 110. In this embodiment, ends of thevaporizer tube 110 and thesealing element 120 are both abutted against thefilter tip 30, and an outer diameter of thevaporizer tube 110 is the same as a diameter of thefilter tip 30. In this case, after thefilter tip 30 is abutted against thevaporizer tube 110 and thesealing element 120, the outer diameter of thevaporizer tube 110 is equal to the diameter of thefilter tip 30, and thevaporizer tube 110 and thefilter tip 30 are coplanar. Thus, thefirst sticker 20 is allowable to closely wrap around outer surfaces of thefilter tip 30 and thevaporizer tube 110 to make thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30 be connected together. If the outer diameter of thevaporizer tube 110 is larger or less than the diameter of thefilter tip 30, when using thefirst sticker 20 to wrap thevaporizer tube 110 and thefilter tip 30, it will render the wrap un-tight, and may even appear that thefilter 30 falls out or drop out from the sticker to negatively affect the user's experience. - A
smoke vent hole 122 is defined in thesealing element 120, which is configured to enable vaporized smoke flow to filtertip 30 for user's suction. Understandably, thesmoke vent hole 122 is a through hole defined in thesealing element 120, which may defined in a middle portion of thesealing element 120 or may defined in a position deviate from the middle portion. There is no limit to the number of thesmoke vent hole 122. - The
first sticker 20 comprises an inner surface (not shown) and an outer surface (not shown). The inner surface is a surface well fit to outer surfaces of thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30. Specifically, the inner surface is a smooth surface which benefits to the well fitness to thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30. The outer surface is exposed to the outside and is in sight of human' eyes, thus a convex-concave pattern and/or a character are defined on the outer surface. For example, identifications such as company logo, trade mark and so on can be printed on the outer surface, and characters for product introduction may also be printed on the outer surface. - The
first sticker 20 is any one selected from fiber paper, craft paper, tipping paper and synthetic paper. Further, thefirst sticker 20 may also be plastic paper or ordinary writing paper, etc. In the present invention, the tipping paper is used as thefirst sticker 20. Furthermore, a thickness of thefirst sticker 20 is ranged from 0.01 mm to 1 mm. If the thickness of thefirst sticker 20 is too small, for example less than 0.01 mm, thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30 may not be wrapped closely, which renders the connection between thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30 infirm. If the thickness of thefirst sticker 20 is too large, for example larger than 1 mm, it lacks the feeling of conventional cigarette when the user uses since thefirst sticker 20 is too thick and hence negatively affects the user's experience. Preferably, the thickness of thefirst sticker 20 is 0.08 mm. In order to ensure thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30 are wrapped more closely, multi layers of thefirst sticker 20 may be wrapped around the outer surfaces of thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30. Namely, multi layers of thefirst sticker 20 may be wrapped around the electronic cigarette vaporizer of the present invention. The number of the layers of thefirst sticker 20 may be set according to process requirements. Understandably, when multi layers of thefirst sticker 20 are wrapped, the multi layers of thefirst sticker 20 are arranged without gap. - In order to make it hard for the electronic cigarette vaporizer to fall out from the user's hand in wet environment or water environment, an antiskid layer (not shown) is coated outside the
first sticker 20. - The
filter tip 30 is a cylindrical flexible body which has a same feeling as the filter tip of the conventional cigarette, satisfies the user's mental and physical requirements to improve the user's experience, and benefits to improve the effectiveness of smoking cessation. Thefilter tip 30 not only functions for filtering but also functions as a suction nozzle. Specifically, thefilter tip 30 is made of one or more material selected from chemical fiber, sponge and breathable foam. For example, thefilter tip 30 may be made of chemical fiber, such as acetate fiber, polyester fiber, polyamide fiber and viscose fiber. Since a heating wire is arranged in the electronic cigarette vaporizer and the heating wire is twined around a glass fiber wick, a part of glass fiber of the glass fiber wick will get rid of the glass fiber wick when the heating wire heats to vaporize the tobacco liquid, and the suspension of the glass fiber is rendered under the carry of the air flow of the electronic cigarette vaporizer. By using thefilter tip 30, the suspended particles such as glass fiber and other harmful gases can be filtered, which can ensure the smoke sucked by the user is harmless, reduce the harm of smoking to the user, and actually realize non-toxic smoking. Thefilter tip 30 made of chemical fiber, sponge and breathable foam is very similar to the cigarette holder of the conventional cigarette in senses of touch and vision, the feeling of using the present product is the same as that of smoking the conventional cigarette, and the user's experience is enhanced. - Through wrapping the
vaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30 with thefirst sticker 20 closely, the electronic cigarette vaporizer of the present invention does not need to use the glue to glue thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30 together, completely avoids the glues harming human body and facilitates automatic production. Further, the electronic cigarette vaporizer of the present invention provides a same feeling as the convention cigarette when inputted into the mouth, satisfies the user's mental and physical requirements to improve the user's experience, and benefits to improve the effectiveness of smoking cessation. Furthermore, when it needs to replace thefilter tip 30, it only needs to tear off thefirst sticker 20, which facilitates the replacement of thefilter tip 30, thus the operation is easy and cost-save. - As shown in
Figs. 3 and4 , an electronic cigarette vaporizer according to a second embodiment of the present invention is provided. The difference of the second embodiment to the first embodiment lies in that the electronic cigarette vaporizer further defines asecond sticker 40 which is arranged between thefilter tip 30 and thefirst sticker 20 and configured to wrap thefilter tip 30, i.e. thesecond sticker 40 is configured to shape thefilter tip 30. - Since the
filter tip 30 is made of chemical fiber, sponge or breathable foam, the surface of thefilter tip 30 is unsmooth. During the manufacturing process, the exteriors of some of thefilter tips 30 are very rough or even uneven, thus thesecond sticker 40 is firstly wrapped outside thefilter tip 30 in the present embodiment to shape thefilter tip 30, then thefirst sticker 20 is wrapped outside thesecond sticker 40 and thevaporizer body 10, and hence forming a complete electronic cigarette vaporizer. - In order to make the
filter tip 30 wrapped by thesecond sticker 40 and thevaporizer tube 110 coaxial and coplanar, a total of a thickness of thesecond sticker 40 and the diameter of thefilter tip 30 is equal to the outer diameter of thevaporizer tube 110. In this case, when thefirst sticker 20 is attached, thefirst sticker 20 is closely attached to the outer surfaces of thesecond sticker 40 and thevaporizer body 10. - The
second sticker 40 is also any one selected from fiber paper, craft paper, tipping paper and synthetic paper. Certainly, thesecond sticker 40 may also be plastic paper or ordinary writing paper, etc. Understandably, since thesecond sticker 40 is wrapped outside thefilter tip 30 and configured to shape thefilter tip 30, thesecond sticker 40 should use a litter thin sticker. The thickness of thesecond sticker 40 is less than that of thefirst sticker 20. Preferably, the thickness of thesecond sticker 40 is ranged from 0.01 mm to 0.5 mm and a preferred thickness of thesecond sticker 40 is 0.03 mm. - Understandably, the
second sticker 40 may wrap one end of thevaporizer body 10. Namely, thesecond sticker 40 both wrap thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30. In other words, outer surfaces of thevaporizer body 10 and thefilter tip 30 is wrapped with two layers of stickers. Since the electronic cigarette vaporizer is very heavy, the filter tip can be better fixed by wrapping two layers of stickers to prevent thefilter tip 30 from falling out. In other implementation, more layers, such as three layers, four layers or even more layers of stickers may wrap thefilter tip 30 and thevaporizer body 10, which is not repeated here. - While the embodiments of the present application are described with reference to the accompanying drawings above, the present application is not limited to the above-mentioned specific implementations. In fact, the above-mentioned specific implementations are intended to be exemplary not to be limiting. In the inspiration of the present application, those ordinary skills in the art can also make many modifications without breaking away from the subject of the present application and the protection scope of the claims. All these modifications belong to the protection of the present application.
