Abstract

A touch control electronic cigarette comprises a casing containing a fragrance; a cigarette filter arranged at the rear end of the casing; a smoke generator arranged inside the casing and atomizing the fragrance into gas; a capacitive sensor module arranged inside the cigarette filter, and generating capacitance variation functioning as a triggering signal while the user is touching the cigarette filter; and a control chip arranged inside the casing, controlling the smoke generator according to the triggering signal to atomize the fragrance into gas, which is to be inhaled by the user, and stopping controlling the smoke generator to atomize the fragrance while the user does not touch the cigarette filter. The present invention is not turned on by push button but triggered by lips of the user lest the user turn on the electronic cigarette imprudently. Besides, the present invention conforms to the usage habit of users.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A touch control electronic cigarette comprising
 a casing containing a fragrance;   a cigarette filter arranged at a rear end of said casing;   a smoke generator arranged inside said casing and atomizing said fragrance into gas;   a capacitive sensor module arranged inside said cigarette filter, and generating capacitance variation functioning as a triggering signal while a user is touching said cigarette filter; and   a control chip arranged inside said casing, electrically connected with said smoke generator and said capacitive sensor module, controlling said smoke generator according to said triggering signal to atomize said fragrance into gas, which is to be inhaled by said user.   
     
     
         2 . The touch control electronic cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein said casing has a cylindrical shape. 
     
     
         3 . The touch control electronic cigarette according to  claim 1  further comprising a light emitting element, which is arranged at a front end of said casing, electrically connected with said control chip, and controlled by said control chip to emit light according to said triggering signal. 
     
     
         4 . The touch control electronic cigarette according to  claim 3 , wherein said light emitting element is a light emitting diode (LED). 
     
     
         5 . The touch control electronic cigarette according to  claim 3  further comprising an energy storage element, which is arranged inside said casing and electrically connected with said control chip to supply power to said control chip, said smoke generator, said capacitive sensor module, and said light emitting element. 
     
     
         6 . The touch control electronic cigarette according to  claim 5  further comprising a charging socket, which is electrically connected with said energy storage element, and which is able to be electrically connected with a commercial power source to charge said energy storage element. 
     
     
         7 . The touch control electronic cigarette according to  claim 5 , wherein said energy storage element is a battery or a rechargeable battery. 
     
     
         8 . The touch control electronic cigarette according to  claim 1 , wherein said fragrance is a liquid fragrance. 
     
     
         9 . The touch control electronic cigarette according to  claim 1  further comprising a protection sleeve for sleeving said cigarette filter.
