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.
Claims19
A electronic vaporizing device, comprising:
- a battery and a liquid storage component in an elongated cylindrical housing having at least one air inlet and an outlet;
- a hollow cylindrical component comprising a fiber material, with the hollow cylindrical component in the elongated cylindrical housing and having a central axis parallel to a longitudinal axis of the elongated cylindrical housing, with the hollow cylindrical component in contact with the liquid storage component, and an atomizing chamber formed within inner cylindrical walls of the hollow cylindrical component between a front end opening and a back end opening of the hollow cylindrical component, to allow air to flow into the atomizing chamber from the front end opening and out from the back end opening of the hollow cylindrical component;
- an air flow path from the one or more air inlets through the atomizing chamber in the hollow cylindrical component, to the outlet;
- and
- a wire coil in the atomizing chamber wound on a porous component and electrically connected to the battery.
