Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an electronic cigarette. The electronic cigarette includes a shell with a suction end, a battery box, an atomizer assembly connected to the battery box, and a guiding component configured for guiding the atomizer assembly. The atomizer assembly slides relative to the battery box via the guiding component to achieve a fixed connection with the battery box.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An electronic cigarette, comprising:
a battery box;
an atomizer assembly connected to the battery box; and
a guiding component configured for guiding the atomizer assembly, wherein the atomizer assembly slides relative to the battery box via the guiding component to achieve a fixed connection with the battery box,
wherein the atomizer assembly comprises a housing and an atomizer arranged in the housing, the guiding component comprises a lead rail and a sliding groove, the lead rail is arranged on a top part of a sidewall of the battery box, the sliding groove is defined in an end of the housing, and the sliding groove matches with the lead rail;
wherein the atomizer comprises a transverse bar formed on a sidewall thereof, the housing defines a gap in a sidewall thereof, the gap matches with the transverse bar, and the gap is configured for restricting a position of the atomizer.

2. The electronic cigarette according to claim 1 , wherein the atomizer assembly is fixedly connected with the battery box via a magnetic attraction connection or a snap-fit connection.

3. The electronic cigarette according to claim 1 , wherein the guiding component comprises two lead rails, and the two lead rails are arranged on the top part of the two opposite sidewalls of the battery box.

4. The electronic cigarette according to claim 3 , wherein a recess is defined between the two lead rails, a protrusion is provided on an end of the atomizer adjacent to the sliding groove, and the protrusion matches with the recess.

5. The electronic cigarette according to claim 3 , wherein the two lead rails extend downwards obliquely along a slide-in direction of the atomizer assembly.

6. The electronic cigarette according to claim 3 , further comprising a positive electrode and a negative electrode arranged between the two lead rails, wherein the positive electrode and the negative electrode are in elastic contact with the atomizer, a channel is provided in an end of the atomizer adjacent to the sliding groove, the channel extends along a sliding direction of the atomizer assembly, and the positive electrode and the negative electrode are arranged in the channel.

7. The electronic cigarette according to claim 4 , wherein a direction that the recess extends is parallel to a sliding direction of the atomizer assembly.
