Abstract

An electronic cigar is provided. The electronic cigar includes an inhalation portion and a body portion connected with the inhalation portion; a junction is formed by the connection between the inhalation portion and the body portion; the electronic cigar has an outer layer covering the junction and the junction edge adjacent areas. The electronic cigar looks beautiful, and the inhalation part and the body portion are securely connected.

Claims

1. An electronic cigar comprising:

an inhalation portion;

a body portion connected with the inhalation portion; and

a junction formed by a connection between the inhalation portion and the body portion;

wherein the connection between the inhalation portion and the body portion is detachable;

the electronic cigar further comprises an outer layer;

two ends of the outer layer are docked and abut against the inhalation portion and the body portion respectively, and the outer layer covers the junction and junction edge adjacent areas by buckling;

wherein a concave area is arranged on the inhalation portion and the body portion and corresponds to the area for placing the outer layer;

wherein the concave area is a ring groove;

the concave area is defined not only at one end of the inhalation portion but also at one end of the body portion;

an inner peripheral surface of the outer layer is coated on outer peripheral surface of the concave area;

wherein a length of the outer layer covering the inhalation portion and a length of the outer layer covering the body portion are respectively from 2 mm to 15 mm;

wherein an outside surface of the outer layer is covered with a transparent protective layer which is a layer of plastic or silicone rubber, is made as an elastic sleeve and is fitted in the concave area, and a total thickness of the outer layer and the transparent protective layer is equal to the depth of the concave area;

a shape of the concave area only allows a shape of the outer layer and the transparent protective layer to fit in; and

wherein the outer layer is made of tipping paper, copperplate paper, plastic paper or synthetic paper.

2. The electronic cigar according to claim 1, wherein an outside surface of the outer layer has a convex-shaped pattern and/or text.

3. The electronic cigar according to claim 1,

wherein, the axial length of the transparent protective layer is greater than the axial length of the outer layer;

two axial edge areas are defined at two sides of the transparent protective layer along an axial direction;

the length of the two axial edge areas ranges from 2 mm to 10 mm;

inner sides of the two axial edge areas are separately provided with a convex part, the inhalation portion and the body portion are separately provided with a corresponding concave part and the two convex parts of the inner sides of the two axial edge areas are arranged in the two concave parts of the inhalation portion and the body portion.

4. The electronic cigar according to claim 1, wherein the inhalation portion and the body portion are connected together by a way of threaded, buckle, magnetic, or interference fit.

5. The electronic cigar according to claim 1, wherein the inhalation portion only includes a suction nozzle, and the body portion includes an atomizing assembly and a power supply for providing power to the atomizing assembly.

6. The electronic cigar according to claim 1, wherein the inhalation portion includes a suction nozzle and an atomizing assembly, and the body portion includes a power supply for providing power to the atomizing assembly.
