  • Patent number: 10786012
    Abstract: An airflow regulator has a main ring body and a regulating ring piece. The main ring body is a hollow structure and a sidewall thereof comprises an air inlet. The regulating ring piece is disposed on a bottom of an inner periphery of the main ring body. The regulating ring piece is used to deform correspondingly according to a magnitude of pressure of incoming airflows passing through the air inlet. An electronic cigarette and an atomizer having the airflow regulator are structurally novel and convenient to use. The regulating ring piece of the airflow regulator can correspondingly deform according to magnitudes of sucking forces of the user when the user smokes in order to automatically adjust an amount of air intake.
