BATTERY CONNECTOR FOR ELECTRONIC CIGARETTE WITH SIDE AIR INTAKE

摘要

A novel electronic cigarette battery male connector that can be retrofitted to existing female cartomizer connectors is described. An air intake path starts at the outer circumference of the connector between the battery and the cartomizer of the electronic cigarette, running inside a notch on the connector. The air is brought into the battery through grooves formed on the distal end of the connector. Once inside the battery, the air path loops around and exits the battery housing towards the cartomizer, via a hole along the central axis of connector. In accordance with th the desired air-intake path, the notch is cut out on the side of connector at strategic location and with strategic geometry.
