Wherein, the upper electrode 50 is fixed inside the external threaded sleeve 30, and the upper electrode 50 defines a first through hole 510 therein. In the present embodiment, the battery sleeve 10 is not connected to the outer sleeve 20 directly, but the battery sleeve 10 and the outer sleeve 20 are connected to each other by the internal threaded sleeve 40 and the external threaded sleeve 30.

The external threaded sleeve 30 includes a body 320, a connection department 330, and a circular groove (not labeled). The connection department 330 is arranged at one side near the internal threaded sleeve 40, and the connection department 330 forms an external thread (not labeled), the circular groove is formed between the body 320 and the connection department 330, and a bottom wall of the circular groove defines a second through hole 310 therein. In the present embodiment, the second through hole 310 can be square, round, triangle or in any other irregular shapes. The number of the through hole 310 is not limited, and can be one or more. The body 320, the connection department 330, and the circular groove are integrally formed, so that the overall effect is better and it is easy to be produced.

An inner wall of the barrel 410 near the external thread forms an internal thread 412, the internal thread 412 engages with the external thread, thus the internal thread sleeve 40 and the external thread sleeve 30 are connected together.

An outer diameter of the ring step 420 is slightly larger than a diameter of the barrel 410. The ring step 420 includes an upper end surface 422 and a lower end surface 424, and the upper end surface 422 is closed to the body 320 of the external threaded sleeve 30.

That is the distance between each wave peak and each wave valley of the wave-shaped end surface should be neither too much nor too little. A too much distance may weaken the sealing effect of the electronic cigarette, and a too little distance may adversely affect the taste of smoking. Preferably the distance between each wave peak and each wave valley of the wave-shaped end surface is 0.4 mm.

In the electronic cigarette of the present invention, since the upper end surface 422 of the internal threaded sleeve 40 is designed to a wave-shaped end surface, an air admission passage communicating with the external environment is formed at the point between the wave-shaped end surface and the external threaded sleeve 30, thus air of the atmosphere enters the electronic cigarette via the air admission passage, and smoke generated in the electronic cigarette is carried to the nozzle cap for smoking. The present invention designs the wave-shaped end surface cleverly, and thereby the threaded copper component is avoided from being slotted. Thus the threaded copper component does not form sharp angles and is prevented from hurting users' bodies.
