Electronic Cigarette

Abstract

An electric cigarette (1) according to the invention comprises a cartridge unit (2) and a control unit (3) detachably arranged thereon, wherein the electric cigarette (1) terminates at a first end with a mouthpiece end (25) and at a second end with a charging tip (4). Over the entire longitudinal extension along a Z-axis, the electric cigarette (1) has a cylindrical or polygonal cross-section and furthermore a first and/or a second and/or a third control element body (5) with a respective body diameter (6a, 6b, 6c) perpendicular to this Z-axis, wherein the respective body diameter (6a, 6b, 6c) of the respective control element body (5) forms a snug fit in the electric cigarette (1), and wherein the respective control element body (5) is further designed as a printed circuit board structure (17) with at least one printed circuit board (33) insulated by means of an insulating filling (32), which is aligned transversely to the Z-axis and on which at least one pressure sensor (30) is arranged, which is operatively connected to a cavity (41) in the printed circuit board structure (17).
