Benefits of technology

In order to achieve object, a candle stand of the present invention includes a liquid container with dynamic ornaments therein, a base disposed under the liquid container, a driving member having a motor, and a candlelight optical sensor arranged on a center of the bottom surface of the liquid container. A slot for receiving a candle or a candle-like light source or other light emitting part is arranged at on a top of the liquid container. When the candle is lit, part of candle light is emitted into the liquid container and reaching the candlelight optical sensor by the light guiding effect of the liquid container. Then the candlelight optical sensor is triggered to activate the motor so as to make the driving member drive the dynamic ornaments moving dynamically. When the candle light is over, the motor stops working.
Moreover, the candle stand further includes an external light sensor ar

Embodiment Construction

Refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a candle stand 1 of the present invention includes a liquid container 10, a base 20, a driving member 30 and at least one candlelight optical sensor 40.

The appearance and shape of the liquid container 10 are not restricted. In this embodiment, the liquid container 10 is a transparent ball container with light guiding effect such as a closed glass ball. An inner space of the liquid container 10 is filled with static objects 70 and dynamic ornament such as artificial flaks, dynamic windmills, rotary ornaments etc. (not shown in figure) and aqueous solution 11. The liquid container 10 is closed by a water plug 12. A slot 13 with an opening facing upward is disposed on a top of the liquid container 10. The shape of the slot 13 is not limited and the slot 13 should be integrated with and formed together with the liquid container 10 integratedly. As shown in figure, a round slot 13 with a certain depth is used to receive a candle 50, a common candle cup, or oth...

Abstract

A candle stand that displays dynamically by a lit candle is revealed. The candle stand includes a liquid container with a slot for receiving a candle arranged at on a top thereof, a base disposed under the liquid container, a driving member having a motor and a circuit board, and a candlelight optical sensor arranged on the bottom of the liquid container. When the candle is lit, candlelight triggers the optical sensor that drives the motor working by the circuit board. Thus ornaments move dynamically. When the candle light is over, the motor stops operating.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONThe present invention relates to a candle stand, especially to a candle stand in which an optical sensor is triggered to turn on a motor for driving ornaments in a liquid container to move dynamically when a candle mounted in a slot on top of a liquid container is lit.There are various designs of a small candle stand as indoor ornaments. Refer to U.S. Pat. No. 6,305,108 “Structural improvement of a water ball”, a top center of the glass ball is disposed with a candle stand for receiving a short candle. After a candle mounted in the candle stand being lit up, the flame thereof and the water ball will provide a decorative atmosphere. Moreover, the stop center of the glass ball has a recess hole for receiving the candle stand. The claims of the prior art do not includes the structured revealed in FIG. 6. However, the movement of dynamic ornaments in the water ball such as artificial flakes, dynamic windmills, rotary ornaments etc. is not related to whether th...
