Abstract

An electronic cigarette is provided, which comprises a battery component. A battery, a PCB board and a press-key switch are provided in the battery component, and the press-key switch is set on the PCB board. An end face of the battery is located opposite one end face of the PCB board. A first electrode pin and a second electrode pin are provided on one end face of the battery, wherein the end face of the battery is adjacent to the PCB board. A first socket and a second socket are provided at one side of the PCB board, wherein the side of the PCB board is adjacent to the battery. The first electrode pin is inserted and soldered in the first socket, and the second electrode pin is inserted and soldered in the second socket.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An electronic cigarette comprising a battery component, wherein a battery, a printed circuit board and a press-key switch being provided in the battery component, and the press-key switch is set on the printed circuit board, an end face of the battery is located opposite one end face of the printed circuit board; a first electrode pin and a second electrode pin are provided on one end face of the battery;
wherein the end face of the battery is adjacent to the printed circuit board; a first socket and a second socket are provided at one side of the printed circuit board, wherein the side of the printed circuit board is adjacent to the battery; the first electrode pin is inserted and soldered in the first socket, and the second electrode pin is inserted and soldered in the second socket;
wherein the press-key switch is installed on one end face of the battery component;
wherein the battery component further comprises an outer sleeve and an end cap that covers on one end face of the outer sleeve; the press-key switch is inserted in the end cap;
wherein the end cap comprises a body portion and a cap portion; the outer sleeve sheaths around the body portion; the cap portion covers on the outer sleeve; the end face of the body portion, which is opposite from the cap portion, extends axially to form two fix slices; the printed circuit board is fixed between the body portion;
wherein the outer sleeve is made of metallic conductive material; an electrode piece is provided on the printed circuit board; the electrode piece abuts the outer sleeve; the battery component further comprises a first outer electrode that is set on the end opposite from the end cap; the first outer electrode is sheathed around by the outer sleeve and adapted to the outer sleeve.

2. The electronic cigarette according to claim 1 , wherein the electronic cigarette further comprises an atomizer component; the printed circuit board is electrically connected to the atomizer component via the press-key switch; the press-key switch is configured to control the operation of the atomizer component.

3. The electronic cigarette according to claim 2 , wherein the battery component further comprises an outer sleeve and a first outer electrode; the outer sleeve sheaths around the first outer electrode; the first outer electrode is used to electrically connect the atomizer component.

4. The electronic cigarette according to claim 1 , wherein the press-key switch comprises a switch base fixed on the printed circuit board and a button set on the switch base; a second through hole is provided on the cap portion; the button is embedded in the second through hole and extends out from the cap portion.
