Abstract
An electronic cigarette includes a battery assembly and an atomizer assembly within a housing with the battery assembly electrically connected to the atomizer assembly. The housing has one or more air inlets. A liquid storage component is in contact with a porous component of the atomizer assembly, with the porous component having a run-through hole. A heating wire is in an air flow path through the run-through hole.
Claims15
An electronic cigarette, comprising:
- a battery assembly having a battery assembly housing;
- an atomizer assembly having an atomizer assembly housing plugged or threaded into the battery assembly housing, with the battery assembly electrically connected to the atomizer assembly;
- a liquid storage component in the atomizer assembly housing;
- one or more through-air-inlets in at least one of the battery assembly housing and the atomizer assembly housing;
- the atomizer assembly including a porous component having a run-through hole;
- a heating wire in an air flow path through the run-through hole;
- and
- the porous component in contact with the liquid storage component.

An electronic cigarette, comprising:
- a battery in a first housing and a liquid storage component in a second housing plugged or threaded into the first housing;
- one or more through-air-inlets in one or both of the first housing and the second housing, and an outlet in the second housing;
- a cylindrical porous component in the second housing having a central axis parallel to a longitudinal axis of the second housing, with the porous component in contact with the liquid storage component, and the porous component having a through hole forming atomizing chamber;
- a heating wire wound in a spiral in the atomizing chamber and electrically linked to the battery via heating wire leads passing through a plate at a first end of the porous component, with the plate fixed in place in the second housing.
