Embodiment Construction

[0054] As shown in the accompanying drawings, for illustrative purposes, the present invention relates to a lifelike artificial flower device that simulates gradual growth and flowering. Preferably, the artificial flower arrangement closely resembles long stem cut flowers and the spring and piston drive mechanism causes the flowers in the artificial flower arrangement to gradually open when placed in a liquid solution such as water. In some embodiments, the electronic device is activated, while in other embodiments, a gift platform carrying a gift or the like is raised. In particularly preferred embodiments, the actions of the artificial flower arrangement can be repeated.

[0055] now refer to figure 1 , shows a perspective view of an artificial flower device 100 embodying the present invention. Device 100 includes an elongated stem 102, typically an elongated tube. Although not shown, stem 102 preferably has the appearance of a flower stem, and may have attached artificia...

Abstract

A device simulating a blooming flower includes a piston slidably disposed within an elongated tube simulating a flower stem. A chamber within the stem is configured to hold a dissolvable solid material. The piston is biased upwardly, but held in place by the dissolvable solid material placed in the chamber above the piston. A simulated flower is attached to the end of the stem or piston and has a plurality of simulated petals configured to open as the stem is placed in a liquid, the solid material dissolves, and the piston moves upwardly within the stem.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to an artificial flower. More specifically, the present invention relates to a device that simulates a blooming flower, which upon exposure to liquid activates an internal mechanism to open its simulated flower. Background technique [0002] Artificial flowers have been commonly used for interior decoration. General artificial flowers, such as dehydrated flowers made of real flowers and other artificial flowers made of plastic materials or ribbons, are generally fixed in style, which can bring beauty, but not vitality. Therefore, such artificial flowers do not have a vivid feeling and thus do not bring pleasure to their viewers. [0003] However, natural flowers have a short lifespan. Also, some flowers, such as roses, take several days for their flowers to fully bloom and open. So, despite bringing vitality and natural beauty, natural flowers also have their shortcomings. [0004] It is well known in the ar...
