Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a simulated flame device, and in particular to a magnetic levitation simulated flame device and a simulated flame lamp having the magnetic levitation simulated flame device. Background Art

[0002] In today's society, in order to create an atmosphere in certain occasions and for safety considerations, people usually use simulated flame lamps to imitate the effect of flame combustion to enhance the surrounding environmental atmosphere. In existing simulated flame lamps, generally a flame sheet is hung on a lamp head, and then a light-emitting body projects light onto the flat flame sheet, and then a driving device drives the flame sheet to swing, so as to achieve the effect of imitating the burning of a candle. However, the existing flame sheet is hung on the lamp head by a wire. Although the flame sheet can swing freely, when simulating the flame combustion, the flame can only produce a swinging effect with a very small swinging angle. Therefore, the simulation effect of existing simulated flame lamps is relatively rigid and not very realistic, and the simulation effect is not ideal. Moreover, when the existing flame sheet is hung on the lamp head by a wire, there is a frictional resistance with the wire. Each time the driving device drives the flame sheet, under the action of the frictional resistance, the flame sheet can only swing one or two times, and then the driving device needs to be powered on again for driving. Frequent driving will cause the driving device to consume a large amount of electric energy, resulting in a short battery life of the simulated flame lamp and being not environmentally friendly. Summary of the Invention

[0003] An object of the present invention is to provide a magnetic levitation simulated flame device with a large swinging angle, natural and realistic swinging, and power saving.

[0004] Another object of the present invention is to provide a simulated flame lamp with a large swinging angle, natural and realistic swinging, and power saving.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the magnetic levitation simulated flame device provided by the present invention includes a base body, a flame component, a positioning bracket, a first magnet and a second magnet; the positioning bracket is fixed in the base body; the first magnet is arranged on the flame component, and the flame component is arranged on the positioning bracket so that the flame component is exposed on the base body; the second magnet is fixed at the lower end of the positioning bracket, and the first magnet and the second magnet are arranged up and down and the polarities of the opposite poles are the same, so that the flame component floats relative to the positioning bracket under the repulsive force of the two magnets.

[0006] Compared with the prior art, in the present invention, a first magnet is provided on the flame component, and the flame component is arranged above the positioning bracket. Also, a second magnet is fixed at the lower end of the positioning bracket, such that the polarities of the opposite poles of the second magnet and the first magnet are the same. Thus, the repulsive force generated by the two magnets can be used to lift the flame component, causing the flame component to levitate. Since the flame component is in a levitated state and the positioning bracket only serves as a limiting center, it can swing in all directions with a large swing angle. Moreover, when in the levitated state, the flame component is not blocked by other forces, so it swings more naturally, realistically, and has a better simulation effect. Additionally, when the flame component is in the levitated state, it is not subject to any resistance. Therefore, after each time the flame component is driven to swing, the flame component can swing more persistently by using the inertial force, effectively reducing the number of times of powered driving, saving electric energy, prolonging the battery life performance, and being environmentally friendly.

[0022] In order to describe in detail the technical content, structural features, and achieved effects of the present invention, the following is a detailed description in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown, the simulation flame lamp 100 of the present invention includes a simulation housing 1, and a power supply 2, a control circuit board 3, a driving device 4, a light-emitting body 5, and a magnetic levitation simulation flame device 6 respectively installed in the simulation housing 1. The control circuit board 3 is electrically connected to the power supply 2 through a switch 7. The light-emitting body 5 is electrically connected to the control circuit board 3 and irradiates light to the flame component 62 of the levitation simulation flame device 6. The driving device 4 is electrically connected to the control circuit board 3 and drives the flame component 62 of the levitation simulation flame device 6 to swing. In this embodiment, the simulation housing 1 is a candle housing, so that the simulation flame lamp 100 can more realistically imitate the effect of a candle lamp.

[0024] Please refer to again Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the maglev simulation flame device 6 includes a base body 61, a flame component 62, a positioning bracket 63, a first magnet 64 and a second magnet 65; the base body 61 is divided into left and right parts, and the left and right parts form an integral whole through combination; the positioning bracket 63 is fixed inside the base body 61, and the positioning bracket 63 has a vertically arranged support column 631, a positioning column 632 and a horizontally arranged T-shaped connecting frame 633; the positioning column 632 is arranged at the upper end of the support column 631, and one end of the connecting frame 633 is connected to the support column 631, and the other end is connected to the inner side of the base body 61. The first magnet 64 is arranged on the flame component 62, a positioning hole 641 is provided in the middle of the first magnet 64, and a positioning hole (not shown in the figure) facing the positioning hole 641 of the first magnet 64 is also provided on the flame component 62. The positioning column 632 is inserted into the positioning hole 641 of the first magnet 64 and the positioning hole of the flame component 62 with a gap to position the flame component 62, so that the flame sheet 621 of the flame component 62 is exposed on the base body 61 and extends out of the upper end of the simulation housing 1; the second magnet 65 is fixed in the opening 631a at the bottom surface of the support column 631, and the polarities of the two poles of the second magnet 65 opposite to the first magnet 64 are the same, so that the flame component 62 floats relative to the positioning bracket 63 under the repulsive force of the two magnets. The matching manner between the flame component and the positioning bracket of the present invention can also be other manners. For example, the flame component can also be provided with a positioning column, and the positioning bracket can also be provided with a positioning hole, so that the positioning column is sleeved in the positioning hole with a gap to position the flame component, and then the first magnet is fixed at the lower end of the positioning column. The first magnet is located in the positioning hole and repels the second magnet at the bottom of the positioning hole, and the flame component can also be made to float relative to the positioning bracket.

[0025] Another example Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a long hole 62a is provided at the root of the flame sheet 621 of the flame component 62, so that the positioning column 632 extends into the long hole 62a and is exposed through the long hole 62a after passing through the positioning hole 641. The positioning column 632 can be seen when observing the flame sheet 621 from the front; therefore, if the positioning column 632 is painted black, a wick of the flame can be formed. By providing the long hole 62a, the positioning column 632 can be seen from the outside, and the positioning column 632 forms a wick of the flame, so that the simulation effect is better and more realistic.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 6, the flame component 62 includes a flame sheet 621 and a swing part 622. The flame sheet 621 extends downward to form two connecting feet 621a. The swing part 622 is provided with a connecting hole 622a, and the connecting feet 621a are inserted into the connecting hole 622a so that the flame sheet 621 is connected to the swing part 622. A long groove 62b is formed between the two connecting feet 621a. An installation hole 62c for accommodating the first magnet 64 is provided at one end of the long groove 62b close to the long hole 62a. The support column 631 is arranged in the long groove 62b to ensure that the flame component 62 can be suspended relative to the support column 631.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 , the driving device 4 includes a third magnet 41 and a coil 42. The third magnet 41 is fixed to the lower end of the flame component 62. Specifically, a fixing hole 62d is provided on the lower bottom surface of the flame component 62. In this embodiment, the fixing hole 62d is arranged on the bottom surface of the swing part 622, and the third magnet 41 is accommodated in the fixing hole 62d. The coil 42 is located below the flame component 62 and generates an electromagnetic field under the control of the control circuit board 3, so that the third magnet 41 drives the flame component 62 to swing under the action of the electromagnetic field. Specifically, the control circuit board 3 controls the on-off of the coil 42. When the coil 42 is energized, the coil 42 generates an electric field, thereby pushing the third magnet 41 to move. The third magnet 41 drives the flame component 62 to swing. At this time, the coil 42 is powered off, and the flame component 62 continues to swing under the action of inertia; after swinging for a period of time, the coil 42 is energized again, and the coil 42 generates an electric field again, thereby pushing the third magnet 41 to move again, and then realizing the continuous swinging of the flame component 62.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, in the present invention, a first magnet 64 is provided on the flame component 62, and a positioning post 632 is provided on the positioning bracket 63. By passing the positioning post 632 through the first magnet 64 and the flame component 62, the flame component 62 is mounted on the positioning bracket 63. Also, a second magnet 65 is fixed at the lower end of the positioning bracket 63, so that the polarities of the opposite poles of the second magnet 65 and the first magnet 64 are the same. Thus, the repulsive force generated by the two magnets can be used to lift the flame component 62, making the flame component 62 suspended. Since the flame component 62 is in a suspended state and the positioning post 632 only serves as a limiting center, it can swing in all directions with a large swing angle. And when in the suspended state, the flame component 62 is not blocked by other forces, so it swings more naturally, realistically, and has a better simulation effect. In addition, the flame component 62 is not subject to any resistance when in the suspended state. Therefore, after each time the flame component 62 is driven to swing, the flame component 62 can swing more persistently by using the inertial force, effectively reducing the number of times the driving device 4 is powered on, saving electric energy, prolonging the battery life performance, and being environmentally friendly.
