Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a schematic structural diagram of a preferred embodiment of the power supply device provided by the present invention. The power supply device of the electronic cigarette includes a main body 1. The main body 1 is provided with an installation groove 11 for installing an external load. At least one side wall of the installation groove 11 is provided with a raised portion 2. When the external load is accommodated in the When installed in the mounting groove 11 , the protruding portion 2 is in contact with the external load. In this embodiment, a raised portion 2 is provided on the side wall of the installation groove 11, and the external load is accommodated in the installation groove 11 by abutting with the raised portion 2, so as to achieve the purpose of tightening the external load and solve the problem of external load. The problem of the load being easily disconnected from the power supply. Such a matching manner does not need to make changes to the structure of the external load, which is beneficial to improve the application range of the power supply device and save the production cost at the same time.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1 , one side of the installation slot 11 is provided with an opening, and the external load is loaded into the installation slot 11 from the opening, and is electrically connected to the power supply device, so that the The power supply device can supply power to external loads. When the external load is an atomizing device, the atomizing device is installed into the installation slot 11 from the opening and is electrically connected to the power supply device, so that when the user triggers the switch, the power supply device is the atomizer device. power supply to the device. In practical applications, the shape of the installation groove 11 is adapted to the shape of the external load. For example, if the external load is a quadrilateral, the mounting groove 11 is a corresponding quadrilateral; the external load is a cylindrical shape, and the mounting groove 11 is a cylindrical structure matched with the external load. In this embodiment, the structure of the protruding portion 2 is described by taking the external load and the mounting groove 11 as an example in which both are quadrilateral.

Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3 , the installation slot 11 includes a bottom wall and four side walls connected in sequence, and the four side walls are vertically connected to the bottom wall.

In this way, when the external load is installed downward from the notch into the installation groove 11, since the smooth arc surface has a symmetrical structure, it is beneficial to balance the two ends of the surface where the external load contacts the protrusion. Therefore, a stable contact can be formed, so as to prevent the external load from tilting due to uneven force, resulting in poor electrical contact, or falling out of the installation groove 11, or even damage to the external load.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 , the protruding portion 2 extends along the direction of the bottom wall of the slot of the mounting groove 11 . That is, the length direction of the protruding portion 2 is the direction of the bottom wall of the notch of the mounting groove 11 . The length of the protruding portion 2 is less than or equal to the length of the side wall along the direction of the bottom wall of the slot. Since the external load is loaded into the installation groove 11 downward from the notch, the length direction of the protrusion 2 is the same as the installation direction and the removal direction of the external load, which can increase the difficulty of the external load to come off. .

Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 , in order to facilitate the installation of external loads, a guide portion 3 is provided at one end of the raised portion 2 close to the notch of the installation groove 11 . The installation direction of the external load is guided by the guide portion 3 . One end of the guide portion 3 is smoothly connected with the surface of the first side wall 111 , and the other end is smoothly connected with the protruding portion 2 . The thickness of the protruding portion 2 gradually increases along the direction of the bottom wall of the notch of the mounting groove 11 . That is, the thickness of the connection between the protruding portion 2 and the first side wall 111 is the smallest, and the thickness of the connection between the protruding portion 2 is the largest. In this way, when the external load is installed under the guidance of the guide portion 3, the installation gap between the external load and the inner wall of the installation groove 11 changes from large to small, and can gradually extend into the installation groove 11 along the smooth surface of the guide portion 3. , reducing the installation difficulty of the external load, which is beneficial to improve the installation efficiency.

In an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2 , two opposite side walls of the mounting groove 11 are respectively provided with the protruding portions 2 . That is, the first side wall 111 and the second side wall 112 opposite to the first side wall 111 are both provided with the protruding portion 2 . When the external load is accommodated in the installation groove 11 , the opposite sides of the external load are respectively abutted against the protrusions 2 on the first side wall 111 and the second side wall 112 , thereby ensuring that the external load is Both sides of the load are subjected to the same extrusion force, which prevents damage due to uneven force on both sides of the external load, and at the same time increases the stress area of the external load, which is beneficial to improve the reliability of the connection between the external load and the power supply device.
