Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present application generally relates to electronic cigarette devices, and more particularly, to a heat not burn electronic cigarette device and method for operating the same.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

One major complain that users dislike their heat not burn electronic cigarette devices is the taste. Using low heat baking instead to combustion is able to let the users smoke healthily. However, if the user is unsatisfied with the flavor, the user will probably switch back to smoke traditional cigarettes.

There are two most important aspects which make the taste of the heat not burn electronic cigarette device to be different from combustion ones: flavor and airflow. Combustion cigarettes have their unique flavor due to the carbonized reaction of burning tobacco leafs. It is more of a bitter and mellow taste compared to the heat not burn electronic cigarette device. Even they have the same kind of cigarette from a same pack, the taste difference still cannot be eliminated as long as the heating processes are different. On the other hand, traditional cigarettes tend to have stronger sucking resistance since the airflow is blocked by filter.

Therefore, a need remains for a heat not burn electronic cigarette device and method thereof to eliminate the flavor and air flow problems.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present application discloses a heat not burn electronic cigarette device and method thereof to eliminate the flavor and air flow problems.

The heat not burn electronic cigarette device comprises a detachable mouthpiece, a body and a heating component. The detachable mouthpiece comprises an opening. The body is coupled to the detachable mouthpiece. The heating component is coupled to the body.

In various exemplary embodiments, wherein the detachable mouthpiece comprises silicon. More specifically, the detachable mouthpiece comprises food-grade scented silicon.

In various exemplary embodiments, the detachable mouthpiece further comprises a channel coupled to the opening.

A method for operating a heat not burn electronic cigarette device is also disclosed. The method comprises coupling a first detachable mouthpiece to the body, wherein the first detachable mouthpiece comprises a first opening; detaching the first detachable mouthpiece from the body; and coupling a second detachable mouthpiece to the body, wherein the second detachable mouthpiece comprises a second opening.

In various exemplary embodiments, wherein shapes of the first opening and the second opening are different.

Based on the above, the present application allows the user to choose different mouthpiece since the mouthpiece is detachable. As such, different types of airflow can be selected since the openings of the detachable mouthpieces are different, eliminating the airflow problem of current heat not burn electronic cigarette devices.

In addition, the food-grade scented silicon provides user a taste which is closer to traditional cigarettes, eliminating the likelihood that the user switches back to smoke traditional cigarette because he/she prefers the taste of traditional cigarette.

By solving the problems of flavor and airflow, the heat not burn electronic cigarette device of the present application is able to provide the users a healthier smoking experience while it is much closer to the traditional cigarettes.

Numerous other advantages and features of the present application will become readily apparent from the following detailed description of disclosed embodiments, from the claims and from the accompanying drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF DISCLOSED EMBODIMENTS

Reference will now be made in detail to the present representative embodiments of the present application, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used in the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts.

FIG. 1A illustrates a view of a heat not burn electronic cigarette device 100 of the present application. FIG. 1B illustrates a view of the heat not burn electronic cigarette device 100 of the present application with a case 140 being removed. FIGS. 2A-2B illustrate a view of a detachable mouthpiece 110 of the heat not burn electronic cigarette device 100 of the present application.

Referring to FIGS. 1A-2B, the heat not burn electronic cigarette device 100 comprises a detachable mouthpiece 110, a body 120, a heating component 130, and a case 140. The detachable mouthpiece 110 comprises an opening 112 and a channel 114 coupled to the opening 112. In one embodiment, the opening 112 can be round. In another embodiment, the opening 112 can be square, and the present application is not limited thereto.

In one embodiment, the channel 114 can be straight. In another embodiment, the channel 114 can be curved, and the present application is not limited thereto. In addition, the channel 140 may include a stepped structure as shown in FIG. 2B, however, the present application is not limited in the structure of the channel 140. As such, the user may choose the preferred detachable mouthpiece 110 which may provide different airflow for the user.

In a further embodiment, the material of the detachable mouthpiece 110 can be made by silicon. More specifically, the detachable mouthpiece 110 may be made by food-grade scented silicon, which can provide the user a closer taste as the traditional cigarettes. Therefore, the problem of different tastes between current heat not burn electronic cigarette device and traditional cigarette can be resolved.

The body 120 is coupled to the detachable mouthpiece 110, and the heating component 130 is coupled to the body 120. In one embodiment, the heating component 130 in the present application is a heating tube as an example. In another embodiment, the heating component 130 can also be other types such as a heating blade. The case 140 is configured to cover the body 120 and the heating component 130 for protection.

FIG. 3 illustrates a flow diagram of a method 300 for operating the heat not burn electronic cigarette device 100 of the present application.

Referring to FIGS. 1A-3, the initial step 310 of the method 300 is coupling a first detachable mouthpiece 110 to the body 120. The first detachable mouthpiece 110 comprises a first opening 112 and a first channel 114 as an example. However, if the user is unsatisfied with the airflow, the user may detach the first detachable mouthpiece 110 from the body 120 as shown in step 320, and coupling another detachable mouthpiece (not separately illustrated) to the body 120 as shown in the step 330. The another detachable mouthpiece (not separately illustrated) may include a second opening and/or a second channel having different shape from the first opening 112 and the first channel 114. The step 320 and the step 330 can be looped until the user finds out the most suitable detachable mouthpiece for him/her.

Based on the above, the present application allows the user to choose different mouthpiece since the mouthpiece is detachable. As such, different types of airflow can be selected since the openings of the detachable mouthpieces are different, eliminating the airflow problem of current heat not burn electronic cigarette devices.

In addition, the food-grade scented silicon provides user a taste which is closer to traditional cigarettes, eliminating the likelihood that the user switches back to smoke traditional cigarette because he/she prefers the taste of traditional cigarette.

By solving the problems of flavor and airflow, the heat not burn electronic cigarette device of the present application is able to provide the users a healthier smoking experience while it is much closer to the traditional cigarettes.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the structure of the present application without departing from the scope or spirit of the present application. In view of the foregoing, it is intended that the present application cover modifications and variations of this application provided they fall within the scope of the following claims and their equivalents.
