BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] 1. Field of the Invention
[0003] The invention relates to a detachable tobacco combustor.
[0004] 2. Description of the Related Art
[0005] A typical tobacco combustor is ignited by an external fire
source or by its own heating wires. The former ignition mode
requires the user to carry the fire source, which brings about
inconvenience. The latter ignition mode often results in incomplete
combustion, which causes material waste and environmental
pollution. In addition, the incomplete combustion of materials
leads to the difficulty for cleaning the combustor.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0006] In view of the above-described problems, it is one objective
of the invention to provide a detachable tobacco combustor.
[0007] To achieve the above objective, in accordance with one
embodiment of the invention, there is provided a detachable tobacco
combustor comprising a cigarette holder assembly; a combustor
assembly; a battery assembly; a voltage generator; and a control
assembly, the control assembly comprising a plastic holder. The
cigarette holder assembly is disposed at a front end of the
combustor assembly and is connected to the combustor assembly via
screw threads. The combustor assembly is connected to the voltage
generator via the plastic holder. The voltage generator and the
control assembly are fixed on the plastic holder. The battery
assembly is connected to the voltage generator and the control
assembly through the plastic holder.
[0008] In a class of this embodiment, the cigarette holder assembly
comprises a ceramic filter, silicone, engineering plastics, and a
first copper connector. The silicon sleeves the ceramic filter. The
silicon and the ceramic filter are inserted into the engineering
plastics; and the first copper connector is pressed on the
engineering plastics by external force.
[0009] In a class of this embodiment, the combustor assembly
comprises a housing, a ceramic combustion chamber, a second copper
connector, an arc generator, and a sealing ring. The arc generator
is inserted into the second copper connector. The second copper
connector is fixed on the housing by screwing; and the ceramic
combustion chamber is pressed by the sealing ring to insert into
the housing.
[0010] In a class of this embodiment, the battery assembly
comprises a steel pipe, a copper piece, an insulating rubber, a
first copper contact, a core, a translucent panel, a silica pad, a
button, a third copper connector, a press cover, a second copper
contact, a spring, a copper base, a copper threaded member, and an
aluminum alloy rod. The insulating rubber is sandwiched by the
copper piece and the first copper contact to form an integrated
structure. The integrated structure is pressed on one end of the
steel pipe, and the third copper connector is pressed on the other
end of the steel pipe. The steel pipe is inserted into the aluminum
alloy rod and tightly fixed by the third copper connector. The
press cover, the second copper contact, the spring, the copper
base, and the copper threaded member are integrated and connected
to the aluminum alloy rod through the copper threaded member; and
the translucent panel, the silica pad, and the button are
integrated by hot riveting and are pressed on the aluminum alloy
rod by external force.
[0011] In a class of this embodiment, the controller further
comprises a fourth copper connector, a connection piece, a
connection electrode, and a control plate. The fourth copper
connector and the connection electrode are pressed on the
connection piece to form a whole. The fourth copper connector is
connected to the second copper connector by screw thread; a manual
switch and a pneumatic switch are disposed on the control plate.
The high voltage generator and the control plate are fixed in the
plastic holder and then are pressed inside the aluminum alloy
rod.
[0012] Advantages according to embodiments of the invention are
summarized as follows. The tobacco combustor employs the high
voltage arc to ignite the tobacco, which facilitates the complete
combustion. The tobacco combustor has a simple structure, which is
convenient for disassembly, assembly, and carrying.
