`
`An emulation aerosol sucker
`
`Teclmical Field
`
`This present invention relates to an electronic sucker unit,
`sucker that doesn’t contain tar but nicotine.
`
`in particular, an emulation aerosol
`
`Background Art
`
`Today when “smoking is hannful to your health” has become a common sense, there are one
`
`billion people smoking cigarettes, and this figure is still rising. On March 1, 2003, the World
`
`Health Organization (WHO) issued the first international smoking ban —— Framework Convention
`
`on Tobacco Control. According to WHO’s data, smoking causes 4,900,000 deaths each year.
`
`Smoking causes serious respiratory system diseases and cancers,
`
`though it is a hard job to
`
`persuade the smokers to completely quit smoking.
`
`Nicotine is the effective ingredient of cigarette, which produces a lot of tar mist as the cigarette
`
`burns. The tar mist accesses the pulmonary alveolus and is quickly absorbed into the blood.
`
`Nicotine thus acts on the receptor of the central nervous system, bringing the euphoria like
`
`stimulant drugs to the smokers, who feel light in the head and on wings as well.
`
`Nicotine is a micromolecular alkaloid, which is basically harmless to human bodies with a small
`
`dosage. Plus, its half life period is extremely short in blood. Tar is the major harmful substance in
`
`tobacco. Tobacco tar comprises of several
`
`thousands of ingredients, dozens of which are
`
`carcinogenic substances. It has now been proved that second hand smoking is even more harmful
`to those who don’t smoke.
`
`To seek the cigarette substitutes that don’t contain harmful tar but nicotine, many inventors have
`
`used the relatively pure nicotine to create such products as “Cigarette Patch”, “Nicotine Gargle”,
`
`“Aerosol Packed in the High Pressure Tank with Propellant”, “Nicotine Chewing Gum”, and
`
`“Nicotine Beverage”. These products are not as harmful as tar, but are absorbed very slowly. As a
`
`result, its peak concentration can’t be effectively established in blood, and the smokers can’t be
`
`satisfied to the full. In addition, the smokers are deprived of the “smoking” habit. Therefore, the
`
`substituting products are not real cigarette substitutes or products helping to quit smoking.
`
`Contents of invention
`
`The purpose of this invention is to provide an emulation aerosol sucker that substitutes for
`
`cigarettes and helps the smokers to quit smoking. For this invention, the aerosol may be regarded
`
`as liquid drips suspended in the air.
`
`The technical solution of this invention is the further innovation of the utility model called
`
`“Aerosol Electronic Cigarette” for which the inventor filed with the State Intellectual Property
`
`Office of the People’s Republic of China on April 14, 2000, with the application number of
`
`Exhibit 1008-00002
`
`

`
`
`
`W0 2007/131450 PCT/CN2007/001576

`20040031 182.0, and the international application number of PCT/CN2005/000337.
`
`The purpose of this invention is fulfilled with the following solution: this invention includes a
`
`battery assembly, an atomizer assembly and a cigarette bottle assembly. The battery assembly
`
`connects with one end of the atomizer assembly, and the cigarette bottle assembly is inserted into

`the other end of the atomizer assembly, thus forming one cigarette type or cigar type body.
`
`Therein, an external thread electrode is located in one end of the battery assembly, and an internal
`
`thread electrode is located in one end of the atomizer assembly. The battery assembly and
`
`atomizer assembly are connected through the screwthread electrode. The battery assembly
`
`includes the indicator, battery, MOSFTET electric circuit board, sensor, silica gel corrugated
`
`membrane, primary screwthread electrode, primary negative pressure cavity, and primary shell.
`
`On one end of the primary shell is an external thread electrode, while on the other end is an
`
`indicator, where there is an indicator cap on one side, in which there is a fine hole. On the other
`
`side, the battery and MOSFET electric circuit board are connected successively. The sensor is
`located on MOSFET electric circuit board. Between the primary screwthread electrode and sensor
`
`is a silica gel corrugated membrane, on which there is the primary negative pressure cavity. The
`
`sensor is connected with the silica gel corrugated membrane through the switch spring. MCU is
`
`added between MOSFET electric circuit board and sensor. On the surface of the primary shell,
`
`there is a screen. The said MCU scans the sensor in the power-saving mode of pulse, and
`
`according to the signal parameters of the sensor, restricts the atomizing capacity with the integral
`
`function of frequency to single operation time. Also, the MCU accomplishes the pulse width
`
`modulation and over discharging protection for the constant power output, automatic cleansing for
`
`thousands of times per operation, step lighting / dying down control of the indicator, display of the
`
`operation times and battery capacity, automatic recovery after sensor malfunction shutdown,’ etc.
`
`The said sensor may be switch sensor made of elastic alloy slice, I-Iall element of linear output,
`
`semiconductor force~sensitive chip, semiconductor matrix thermoelectric bridge chip, capacitance
`
`or inductance sensor. The said indicators include two red LEDs. The said silica gel corrugated
`
`membrane may be made of fluorinated rubber, butyronitrile rubber, or elastic alloy frhn. The said
`
`external thread electrode is a gold—coated stainless steel or brass part with a hole drilled in the

`lithium ion battery or a rechargeable lithium ion battery. The said atomizer assembly includes the
`
`internal thread electrode, air-liquid separator, atomizer and the secondary shell. One end of the
`
`secondary shell is inserted into the cigarette bottle assembly for connection, while the other end
`
`has an internal thread electrode, in which there is the secondary negative pressure cavity. The
`air~liquid separator and the atomizer are connected with the internal thread electrode successively.
`On the secondary shell,
`there is an air intake hole. The said internal
`thread electrode is a
`
`gold-coated stainless steel or brass part with a hole drilled in the center. The said air-liquid
`
`separator is made of stainless steel or plastic with a hole drilled. The said atomizer may be
`
`capillary impregnation atomizer or spray atomizer, inside which there is a heating body. The said
`
`spray atomizer has a spray hole on it. The said spray hole is made of foamed ceramics,
`
`micro-porous ceramics, foamed metal, stainless steel fiber felt, or chemical fiber molding, which
`
`are drilled for holes. The said heating body is made of the micro-porous ceramics on which
`
`nickel-chromium alloy wire, iron-chromium alloy wire, platinum wire, or other electrothermal

`
`materials are wound. Alternatively, it may be a porous component made of electrically conductive
`
`ceramics or PTC ceramics and associated with a sintered electrode. The surface of the heating
`

`
`cigarette liquid bottle. Between the fiber and interior wall of the cigarette liquid bottle is an air
`
`intake hole. The said cigarette liquid bottle and suction nozzle are made of non-toxic plastic. The
`
`said fiber is made of polypropylene or nylon. The cigarette liquid in the said fiber for atomization
`
`contains 0.1-3.5% nicotine, 0.05-5% tobacco flavor, 0.1-3% organic acid, 0.1—0.5% stabilizer ,
`
`and propanediol for the remaining. The said sucker and its connecting structure may be loaded
`
`with conventional drugs for delivery to the lung.
`
`This invention will bring the following benefits and active effects: For this invention, smoking
`
`doesn’t bring any cigarette tar, considerably reducing the carcinogenic risks. At the same time, the
`
`smokers can still enjoy the feel and excitement of smoking, and there is no fire hazard since there
`
`is no need for igniting. In addition, the unit and its connecting structure of this invention may also
`
`be loaded with conventional drugs for delivery to the lung.

`
`Specific Mode for Car_rying Out the Invention
`
`This invention is further described as follows on the basis of the drawings.
`
`Example 1
`
`As shown in Figure 1, the visual appearance of this invention is similar to a cigarette inserted into
`
`the cigarette holder, and includes a battery assembly, an atomizer assembly and a cigarette bottle
`
`assembly. An external thread electrode (209) is located in one end of the battery assembly, and an
`
`internal
`
`thread electrode (302) is located in one end of the atomizer assembly. The battery
`
`assembly and atomizer assembly are connected through the screwthread electrode into an
`
`emulation cigarette. The cigarette bottle assembly is inserted into the other end of atomizer
`
`assembly, to form one cigarette type emulation aerosol sucker.
`
`As shown in Figure 2A, the battery assembly includes the indicator (202), lithium ion battery
`
`(203), MOSFTET electric circuit board (205), sensor (207), silica gel corrugated membrane (208),
`
`primary screwthread electrode (209), primary negative pressure cavity (210), and primary shell
`
`(211). On one end of the primary shell (211) is an external thread electrode (209), while on the
`
`other end is an indicator (202), where there is an indicator cap (201) on one side, in which there is
`
`a fine hole (501). On the other side, the lithium ion battery (203) and MOSFET (Metallic Oxide
`
`Semiconductor Field Effect Tube) electric circuit board (205) are connected successively. The
`
`sensor (207) is located on MOSFET electric circuit board (205). Between the primary screwthread
`
`electrode (209) and sensor (207) is a silica gel corrugated membrane (208), on which there is the
`
`primary negative pressure cavity (210). The sensor (207) is connected with the silica gel
`
`corrugated membrane (208) through the switch spring (212).
`
`Therein, the sensor (207) may be switch sensor made of elastic alloy slice, Hall element of linear
`
`output, semiconductor force-sensitive chip, semiconductor matrix thermoelectric bridge chip,
`
`capacitance or inductance sensor. The indicators (202) include two red LEDS. The lithium ion
`
`battery (203) may be either a rechargeable polymer lithium ion battery or a rechargeable lithium
`
`ion battery. The external thread electrode (209) is a gold—coated stainless steel or brass part with a
`
`hole drilled in the center. The silica gel corrugated membrane (208) may alternatively be made of
`
`fluorinated rubber, butyronitrile rubber, or elastic alloy film.
`
`As shown in Figure 3,
`
`the atomizer assembly includes the internal
`
`tluead electrode (302),
`
`air-liquid separator (303), atomizer (307) and the secondary shell (306). One end of the secondary
`shell
`(306) is inserted into the cigarette bottle assembly for connection, while the other end has
`
`Exhibit 1008-00005
`
`

`
`W0 2007/131450
`
`PCT/CN2007/001576
`
`an internal thread electrode (302), in which there is the secondary negative pressure cavity (301).
`
`The air-liquid separator (303) and the atomizer (307) are connected with the internal
`
`thread
`
`electrode (302) successively. On the secondary shell (306), there is an air intake hole (502). The
`
`air-liquid separator (303) is made of stainless steel or plastic with a hole drilled. The internal
`
`tluead electrode (302) is a gold-coated stainless steel or brass part with a hole drilled in the center.
`
`The atomizer (307) may be a capillary impregnation atomizer as Figure 8 and 9 show, or a spray
`
`atomizer as Figure 10 and 11 show. For this embodiment, it is a spray atomizer.
`
`As shown in Figure 4, the cigarette bottle assembly includes the cigarette liquid bottle (401), fiber
`
`(402) and suction nozzle (403). The fiber (402) containing cigarette liquid is located on one end of
`
`the cigarette liquid bottle (401), and this end is inserted into the secondary shell (306) and lies
`
`against the atomizer (307). The suction nozzle (403) is located on the other end of the cigarette
`
`liquid bottle (401). Between the fiber (402) and interior wall of the cigarette liquid bottle (401) is
`
`an air intake hole (503).
`
`'
`
`As shown in Figure 5A, the standby state of this invention has the fully charged battery assembly
`
`shown on Figure 2A fastened onto the atomizer assembly shown on Figure 3, which is then
`
`inserted into the cigarette bottle assembly shown on Figure 4. When the user slightly sucks the
`
`suction nozzle (403), the negative pressure forms on the silica gel corrugated membrane (208)
`through the air intake hole (503) and the primary and secondary negative pressure cavities (210,
`
`301), and the silica gel corrugated membrane (208), under the action of suction pressure difference,
`
`distorts to drive the switch spring (212) and sensor (207), thus invoking MOSFET electric circuit
`
`board (205). At this moment, the indicators (202) are lit gradually; the lithium ion battery (203)
`
`electrifies the heating body (305) inside the atomizer (307) through MOSFET electric circuit
`
`board (205) as well as the internal and external thread electrodes (302, 209), so that the heating
`
`body (305) inside the atomizer (307) produces heat. The fiber (402) inside the cigarette liquid
`
`bottle (401) contains cigarette liquid, which soaks the micro-porous ceramics (801) inside the
`
`atomizer through the fiber (402). The air enters through the air intake hole (502), passes through
`
`the run—through hole on the air-liquid separator (303), and helps to form air-liquid mixture in the
`
`spray nozzle (304) of the atomizer (307). The air-liquid mixture sprays onto the heating body
`
`(305), gets vaporized, and is quickly absorbed into the airflow and condensed into aerosol, which
`
`passes through the air intake hole (503) and suction nozzle (403) to form white mist type aerosol.
`
`When suction stops, the switch spring (212) and sensor (207) are reset; the atomizer (307) stops
`
`working; the indicators (202) gradually die down. When the operation times reaches the pre-set
`
`value, the atomizer (307) provides a work delay of 5-20 seconds per time, so as to remove the
`
`micro-dirt accumulated on the heating body (305).
`
`Besides the micro-porous ceramics, the liquid supply material of the atomizer (307) may also be
`
`foamed ceramics, micro-porous glass, foamed metal, stainless steel fiber felt, terylene fiber, nylon
`
`fiber, nitrile fiber, aramid fiber or hard porous plastics. The heating body (305) is made of the
`
`micro-porous ceramics on which nickel—clnomium alloy wire, iron-chromium alloy wire, platinum
`
`wire, or other electrothermal materials are wound. Alternatively, it may be a porous component
`
`Exhibit 1008-00006
`
`

`
`W0 2007/131450
`
`PCT/CN2007/001576
`
`directly made of electrically conductive ceramics or PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient)
`
`ceramics and associated with a sintered electrode. The surface of the heating body(305) is sintered
`
`into high-temperature glaze to fix the zeolite grains, which are made of natural zeolite, artificial
`
`non—organic micro-porous ceramics or aluminum oxide grains. The cigarette liquid bottle (401)
`
`and suction nozzle (403) in the cigarette bottle assembly are made of non-toxic plastic, and inside
`
`them is the fiber (402) made of polypropylene fiber or nylon fiber to absorb cigarette liquid. In the
`
`battery assembly, there is a fine hole (501) on the indicator cap (201) for balancing the pressure
`
`difference on both sides of the silica gel corrugated membrane (208).
`
`The cigarette liquid contains 0.1-3.5% nicotine, 0.05—5% tobacco flavor, 0.1~3% organic acid,
`
`0.1-0.5% stabilizer, and propanediol for the remaining.
`
`The primary and secondary shell (211, 306) of this invention are made of stainless steel tube or
`
`copper alloy tube with baked—enamel coating of real cigarette color.
`
`As shown in Figure 12, this invention may have the diameter of the battery assembly increased in
`
`proportion, so that it is consistent with the diameter of the atomizer assembly. Its shell may be
`
`decorated with the leaf veins and sub-gloss brown—yellow baked—enamel coating, to create a cigar
`
`type emulation aerosol sucker.
`
`For charging of the lithium ion battery (203) of this invention, the screwthread electrode (601) that
`
`matches the external thread electrode (209) on the battery assembly may be used as the charging
`interface.
`
`Example 2
`
`As shown in Figure 2B, the differences of this example from example 1 are as follows: MCU (206)
`
`is added between MOSFET electric circuit board (205) and sensor (207). On the surface of the
`
`primary shell (211), there is a screen (204) for display of the power of the lithium ion battery (203)
`
`and the sucking times.
`
`As shown in Figure SB, the standby state of this invention has the fully charged battery assembly
`
`. shown on Figure 2B fastened onto the atomizer assembly, which is then inserted into the cigarette
`
`bottle assembly shown on Figure 4. When the user slightly sucks the suction nozzle (403), the
`
`negative pressure forms on the silica gel corrugated membrane (208) through the air intake hole
`
`(503) and the primary and secondary negative pressure cavities (210, 301), and the silica gel
`
`corrugated membrane (208), under the action of suction pressure difference, distorts to drive the
`
`switch spring (212) and sensor (207), thus invoking MCU (206) and MOSFET electric circuit
`
`board (205). At this moment, the indicators (202) are lit gradually; the lithium ion battery (203)
`
`electrifies the heating body (305) inside the atomizer (307) through MOSFET electric circuit
`
`board (205) as well as the internal and external thread electrodes (302, 209), so that the heating
`
`body (305) inside the atomizer (307) produces heat. The fiber (402) inside the cigarette liquid
`
`bottle (401) contains cigarette liquid, which soaks the micro—porous ceramics (801) inside the
`
`atomizer through the fiber (402). The air enters through the air intake hole (502), passes through
`
`Exhibit 1008-00007
`
`

`
`
`
`W0 2007/131450 PCT/CN2007/001576
`
`the run—through hole on the air-liquid separator (303), and helps to fonn air-liquid mixture in the
`
`spray nozzle (304) of the atomizer (307). The air-liquid mixture sprays onto the heating body
`
`(305), gets vaporized, and is quickly absorbed into the airflow and condensed into aerosol, which
`
`passes through the air intake hole (503) and suction nozzle (403) to form white mist type aerosol.
`
`As shown in Figure 7, when the action of suction evokes the sensor, MCU (206) scans the sensor
`
`(207) in the power-saving mode of pulse, and according to the signal parameters of the sensor
`
`(207), restricts the atomizing capacity with the integral function of frequency to single operation
`
`time. Also,
`
`the MCU (206) accomplishes the pulse width modulation and over discharging
`
`protection for the constant power output, automatic cleansing for thousands of times per operation,
`
`step lighting / dying down control of the indicator, display of the operation times and battery
`
`capacity, automatic recovery after sensor malfunction shutdown, etc.
`
`The unit and its connecting structure of this invention may also be loaded with drugs for delivery
`
`to the lung.
`
`Above are just specifications of a concrete example and applied example t of this invention. This
`
`doesn’t necessarily restrict the scope of protection of this invention. Any equivalent modification
`
`or decoration made on the basis of the design spirit of this invention shall fall into the scope of
`
`protection of this invention.
