A valve (10) for an electronic cigarette (2) comprising a valve having a first body (12), a second body (18) and a biasing member (34) configured to apply a biasing force (Fb) between the first body and the second body. The valve can be operated between an open position and a closed position in response to the relative angular position of the first body in relation to the second body.The valve further comprises an actuator (44), which is configured to create a force (Fa) counter-acting against the biasing force (Fb) from the biasing member, wherein the position of the valve is changed when the force from the actuator (Fa) exceeds the biasing force (Fb).本發明揭示一種用於一電子菸(2)之閥(10),其包括具有一第一主體(12)、一第二主體(18)及經組態以在該第一主體與該第二主體之間施加一偏置力(Fb)之一偏置部件(34)之一閥。該閥可回應於該第一主體相對於該第二主體之相對角位置而在一打開位置與一關閉位置之間操作。該閥進一步包括一致動器(44),該致動器(44)經組態以產生反作用於來自該偏置部件之該偏置力(Fb)之一力(Fa),其中當來自該致動器之該力(Fa)超過該偏置力(Fb)時,該閥之該位置改變。
