DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
[0026] To make the technical feature, objective and effect of the
present invention be understood more clearly, now the specific
implementation of the present invention is described in detail with
reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0027] Referring to FIGS. 1-5, the invention provides an electronic
cigarette, which comprises a cigarette rod 3, and an atomizing
assembly or/and a power supply received in the cigarette rod 3. The
cigarette rod 3 is provided with spice sending out aroma.
[0028] The spice can be attached on different portion of the
cigarette rod 3. In particular, as shown in FIG. 1, the cigarette
rod 3 comprises a porous filter element 4 mounted on one end of the
cigarette rod 3, and the spice is accommodated by the porous filter
element 4. The porous filter element 4 can be directly made of
cellulose acetate, sponge or other porous materials, and can also
be made of fibers manufactured by pulling polypropylene
material.
[0029] Referring to FIGS. 2-5, the cigarette rod 3 further
comprises an outer sleeve 1, the outer sleeve 1 is provided with
the spice; or the cigarette rod 3 comprises the outer sleeve 1 and
a sticker (not shown), and the sticker is provided with the
spice.
[0030] The outer sleeve 1 defines at least one concave (not shown);
and the spice is embedded in the concave.
[0031] Particularly, the spice can be existing spice, such as
Virginia cigarette flavor, Turkey cigarette flavor, or Havana cigar
cigarette flavor.
[0032] The spice can also be ingredients extracted from natural
spice, that is, the spice is aromatic substances manufactured by
processing aromatic parts of animals or plants used as raw
materials or separated from the aromatic parts of animals or plants
used as raw materials. For example, the spice can be fennel, wild
carrot oil, oil of anise (aniseed), cinnamon oil, Chinese cinnamon
oil, clove oil, meat cardamom oil, extract, net oil, balm,
tincture, such as rose oil, jasmine extract, vanilla tincture,
Prynne balsam, spit rash incense resin, Narcissus Net oil, and so
on.
[0033] The spice can also be synthetic spice, that is, the spice is
aromatic compounds manufactured by using coal chemical products and
petroleum chemical products as raw materials and processing the raw
materials by chemical synthesis methods. For example, the spice can
be ketones flavor, alcohol flavor, esters, lactones flavor,
aldehydes flavor, hydrocarbons flavor, ethers flavor, cyanide
flavor, and so on.
[0034] A formula of the spice is to adopt wild carrot oil with a
mass percentage of 12%, anise oil with a mass percentage 20%,
cinnamon oil with a mass percentage of 8%, and clove oil with a
mass percentage of 60%.
[0035] When the outer sleeve 1 is not coated by the sticker, the
spice independently forms a spice layer 2 coated on the outer
sleeve 1; and when the outer sleeve 1 is coated by the sticker, the
spice and the sticker cooperatively form the spice layer 2 coated
on the outer sleeve 1.
[0036] The electronic cigarette further comprises an adhesive layer
configured to adhere the spice layer 2 to the outer sleeve 1. The
adhesive layer can be formed by glue, double faced adhesive tape,
or other adhesion ways.
[0037] Understandably, when the spice forms the spice layer 2, the
spice layer 2 is embedded in the concave. In this situation, in
order to make the outer surface of the electronic cigarette be
smooth, a total thickness of the adhesive layer and the spice layer
2 can be equal to a depth of the concave.
[0038] A thickness of the spice layer 2 ranges from 0.5 mm to 3 mm.
Advantageously, the thickness of spice layer 2 is 2 mm.
[0039] In order to prevent the electronic cigarette from slipping
from hands in water and moist environments, a non-slip layer is
form on the outside of the spice layer 2. The non-slip layer is
antilubricant coated on the spice layer 2 or concave and convex
lines form on the spice layer 2.
[0040] Understandably, when the non-slip layer is coated on the
entire outside of the spice layer 2, the aroma of the spice layer 2
cannot send out through the non-slip layer. Thus, meshes configured
for enabling the spice layer 2 to send out aroma are required to be
defined in the non-slip layer. Shapes of the meshes are one or more
of round, oval, and polygonal. The existence of the meshes can also
prevent the aroma from sending out excessively, and durability of
the aroma of the spice layer 2 is thereby enhanced.
[0041] Understandably, a coating layer can be directly formed on
the outside of the spice layer 2, and meshes can be defined in the
coating layer. Similarly, shapes of the meshes are one or more of
round, oval, and polygonal.
[0042] The coating layer can be made of any kind of tipping paper,
copper plate paper, plastic paper, and synthetic paper.
Understandably, the coating layer can also provide a certain
protection effect to the spice layer 2.
[0043] In order to prevent the electronic cigarette slipping, a
non-slip layer coating layer is formed on the outside of the
coating layer and matches with the coating layer. The non-slip
layer is antilubricant coated on the coating layer or concave and
convex lines formed on the spice layer. Understandably, the coating
layer can be the outermost layer, that is, no non-slip layer is
formed on the outside of the coating layer.
[0044] Understandably, in order to ensure the beauty of electronic
cigarette, the outermost layer of the electronic cigarette levels
with the outer surface of the electronic cigarette.
[0045] Referring to FIGS. 2-3, when the electronic cigarette is
integral, the outer sleeve 1 can be an integrated structure.
Correspondingly, the spice layer 2 can also be a whole, and the
coating layer and the non-slip layer can be an integrated
structure. In this situation, understandably, vents should be
defined in positions of the non-slip layer, the spice layer 2, and
the coating layer that correspond to an air inlet of the electronic
cigarette, so that external air is enabled to pass through the
non-slip layer, the coating layer, and the spice layer 2 and
further enter the air inlet via the vents. The spice layer 2, the
coating layer or the non-slip layer can also be separable from each
other, with the air inlet of the electronic cigarette used as the
boundary.
[0046] Referring to FIGS. 4-5, when the electronic cigarette is
disassemble, the outer sleeve 1 comprises an atomizer sleeve 11 and
a battery sleeve 12 detachably connected with the atomizer sleeve
11. The spice layer 2 comprises a first spice layer 21 coated on
the outside of the atomizer sleeve 11 and a second spice layer 22
coated on the outer wall of the battery sleeve 12. A purpose of
setting the first spice layer 21 and the second spice layer 22 is
to facilitate disassembly and assembly of the electronic cigarette
and make air enter the air inlet of the electronic cigarette
easily. In this situation, a thickness of the first spice layer 21
is equal to a thickness of the second layer 22.
[0047] To sum up, by setting the spice sending out aroma on the
cigarette rod, the smokers' need of smelling the smell of the
cigarette rod when smoking can be met, and the smoke effect is
improved. By setting the non-slip layer with meshes or the coating
layer with meshes, aroma volatilization can be delayed, and aroma
sending time of the spice can be further prolonged.
[0048] While the embodiments of the present invention are described
with reference to the accompanying drawings above, the present
invention 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 invention, those ordinary skills in
the art can also make many modifications without breaking away from
the subject of the present invention and the protection scope of
the claims. All these modifications belong to the protection of the
present invention.
