Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of aromatherapy diffuser accessories, specifically relating to a manual rotary incense ash collector and a backflow incense diffuser. Background Technology

[0002] Backflow incense, also known as downflow incense, gets its name from the fact that the smoke it produces during combustion flows from a high point to a low point like water due to its high tar content. Currently, most backflow incense diffusers on the market have an open structure, exposing the linear or spherical incense sticks to external factors such as wind. During use, burning backflow incense produces smoke and ash. This ash easily enters the diffuser's interior environment due to wind and gravity, leading to a deterioration in the air quality. For example, if there are figurines or other display items inside the diffuser, this can negatively impact the appearance of those items. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a manually operated rotary incense ash collector and a backflow incense diffuser. This manually operated rotary incense ash collector is suitable for use on the upper part of a backflow incense diffuser, especially when installed on the upper part of a diffuser with display items. It allows fallen ash to be collected promptly in a relatively enclosed space without affecting the backflow of smoke, facilitating the cleaning of burning ash, ensuring a clean and hygienic internal environment of the diffuser, and avoiding any negative impact on the appearance of the displayed items. This solves the problems existing in the prior art.

[0004] This invention provides one of the following technical solutions:

[0005] A manually operated rotary incense ash collector includes:

[0006] The outer shell structure is a hollow outer frame with an upper toothed rack.

[0007] A manually rotating structure is nested inside a hollow outer frame. A lower rack is provided at the top of the manually rotating structure, which meshes with an upper rack. A hopper for collecting ash is provided inside the manually rotating structure. A spring is provided between the bottom of the rotating structure and the bottom of the hollow outer frame. An upper guide hole is provided on the bottom wall of the hollow outer frame outside the spring.

[0008] The smoke and ash collection structure is detachably assembled and connected to the hollow outer frame. A groove is provided at the top inside the smoke and ash collection structure for collecting smoke and ash. A lower guide hole corresponding to the upper guide hole is provided on the smoke and ash collection structure outside the groove.

[0009] Furthermore, a thread is provided at the top of the outer shell structure for connection with the backflow aromatherapy diffuser.

[0010] Furthermore, the hollow outer frame includes an upper support member and a lower support member that are arranged vertically through each other, and a vertical support member is provided between the upper support member and the lower support member; an upper rack is provided at the bottom end of the upper support member, the vertical support member is provided outside the upper rack, the vertical support members are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the upper support member, a spring member is provided at the top of the lower support member, and an upper guide hole is provided on the lower support member outside the spring member;

[0011] The manual rotating structure is located between the upper support and the lower support. The bottom end of the manual rotating structure abuts against the spring. A lower rack is provided at the top of the manual rotating structure. The lower rack meshes with the upper rack under the action of the spring.

[0012] The smoke and ash collection structure is detachably connected to the lower support member.

[0013] Furthermore, the smoke guiding and ash collecting structure is snapped together with the lower support member.

[0014] Furthermore, both the upper support and the lower support are annular seats, and the vertical support includes a plurality of connecting plates spaced apart circumferentially along the annular seat; the upper guide hole is provided on the lower support near the inner side of the hollow outer frame.

[0015] Furthermore, the top end of the connecting plate is fixed to the bottom end of the upper support member; the bottom end of the connecting plate is fixed to or detachably assembled and fixed to the lower support member.

[0016] Furthermore, the upper guide hole includes a notch on the top surface of the lower support member, the notch extending through the upper and lower parts of the lower support member.

[0017] Furthermore, both the upper and lower guide holes include multiple holes spaced apart.

[0018] Furthermore, the connecting plate consists of four spaced-apart arc-shaped panels. The arc-shaped panels are matched with the outer wall of the manually rotating structure.

[0019] Furthermore, the manual rotating structure includes an annular shell, with the lower rack located at the top of the annular shell; the hopper is disposed inside the annular shell, and the hopper is a bucket-shaped inner cylinder.

[0020] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the bottom opening of the funnel-shaped inner cylinder is not greater than the inner diameter of the lower support member.

[0021] Furthermore, the spring is a compression spring, and an annular groove is provided at the top of the lower support member. The compression spring is located in the annular groove, and in its natural state, the top of the compression spring is higher than the top surface of the lower support member.

[0022] Furthermore, a recessed platform is provided on the top outer wall of the smoke guiding and ash collecting structure, and a locking protrusion is provided in the recessed platform. A locking interface is provided at the bottom of the lower support member in conjunction with the locking protrusion. The outer shell structure is detachably snapped together with the smoke guiding and ash collecting structure through the locking protrusion and the locking interface.

[0023] Furthermore, the protrusion is an inverted L-shaped protrusion, the bottom end of which is fixed to the bottom wall of the recess. The inverted L-shaped protrusion has a certain elastic range of movement within the recess along the horizontal depth direction of the recess. The card interface is a card interface that is adapted to engage with the upper part of the inverted L-shaped protrusion.

[0024] Furthermore, the locking interface includes an inverted L-shaped opening located on the inner side of the bottom of the lower support member; the inverted L-shaped locking protrusion is made of a material with a certain degree of elasticity. This ensures that, initially, when it enters the inverted L-shaped opening at the bottom of the lower support member, it is confined to approaching the inner wall of the recessed platform. As it continues to extend upwards into the inverted L-shaped opening until it aligns with the horizontal opening of the inverted L-shaped opening, the inverted L-shaped locking protrusion returns to its original vertical position and engages with the locking interface. When disassembly is required, the inverted L-shaped locking protrusion is pushed inwards at the recessed platform position, and then the smoke guiding and ash collecting structure is separated from the bottom end of the lower support member.

[0025] Furthermore, the upper rack and the lower rack are both triangular racks.

[0026] Furthermore, the triangular rack is a right-angled triangular rack.

[0027] Furthermore, the triangular rack is an isosceles right-angled triangular rack.

[0028] The present invention provides the following second technical solution:

[0029] A backflow incense burner includes a base, a hollow transparent section, and a top cover. Display items are placed within the hollow transparent section, and a manually operated rotary incense ash collector as described in any one of claims 1-7 is placed between the hollow transparent section and the top cover.

[0030] Furthermore, the manually operated rotary incense ash collector is detachably assembled with the upper part of the hollow transparent section; the manually operated rotary incense ash collector is screwed or closed to the top cover.

[0031] Furthermore, the manually operated rotary incense ash collector is fixed to the top of the hollow transparent section by screwing, snapping, or plugging.

[0032] Furthermore, a lower protrusion is provided at the bottom of the smoke guiding and ash collecting structure, and a concave top groove is provided at the top of the hollow transparent section to cooperate with and insert into the lower protrusion. The manual rotary incense ash collector is fixed to the hollow transparent section by the lower protrusion and the concave top groove.

[0033] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0034] 1. The manual rotary ash collector of this invention, as a component of a backflow incense burner, allows the burning of backflow incense to be in a semi-enclosed state when placed, increasing wind resistance and ensuring a relatively stable internal environment when used with the incense burner. This manual rotary ash collector is compatible with various forms of backflow incense, facilitating the use of two common types: linear and spherical backflow incense. For example, spherical backflow incense can be placed in the funnel-shaped inner cylinder of the manual rotary structure, while linear backflow incense can be clamped inside the top cover of the incense burner. This manual rotary ash collector can also collect burning ash while ensuring the smooth passage of smoke generated by incense combustion.

[0035] 2. The upper and lower racks of the manual rotary ash collector of this invention adopt a right-angled triangular design, forcing the manual rotary structure to move in one direction. The slope of the racks causes displacement and sliding, and under the action of the compression spring, the lower rack of the manual rotary structure meshes with the next upper rack for the next displacement and sliding. In this way, the manual rotary structure can move up and down and rotate, and the resulting vibration gathers the ash on the inner cylinder of the hopper and collects it into the lower smoke-guiding and ash-collecting structure. By using a snap-fit ​​and snap-fit ​​interface for detachable assembly of the smoke-guiding and ash-collecting structure and the outer shell structure, separation and installation are convenient, and cleaning after disassembly is easy, making it practical and flexible.

[0036] 3. When using the manual rotary incense ash collector of the present invention, it can be installed on the upper part of the backflow incense burner, especially when it is installed on the upper part of the display items of the incense burner with display items. It can collect the fallen incense ash in a relatively enclosed space in a timely manner without affecting the backflow of smoke, thus ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the internal environment of the incense burner and avoiding affecting the appearance of the display items.

[0052] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited to these embodiments.

[0053] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.

[0054] Example 1

[0055] See Figure 1-12 The structure of the manually operated rotary incense ash collector of the present invention is shown. Specifically, the manually operated rotary incense ash collector includes an assembled outer shell structure 1, a manually rotating structure 2, and a smoke guiding and ash collecting structure 3.

[0056] The aforementioned outer shell structure 1 includes an upper ring 101 and a lower ring 102 that are arranged vertically. A vertical connecting plate 103 is provided between the upper and lower rings. The vertical connecting plate is an arc-shaped vertical connecting plate. An upper rack 104 is provided on the inner side of the bottom end of the upper ring. The vertical connecting plate is located on the outer side of the upper rack. Multiple vertical connecting plates are spaced apart along the circumference of the upper ring. An annular groove 105 is provided on the top of the lower ring. A spring 106 is provided in the annular groove. An upper flue 107 is provided on the lower ring outside the spring. In its natural state, the top of the spring is higher than the top surface of the lower ring 102. The upper flue is located on the lower ring 102 near the hollow space inside the outer shell structure. The upper flue includes a notch on the top surface of the lower ring, which extends vertically through the lower ring to form the upper flue.

[0057] The top end of the aforementioned vertical connecting plate 103 is fixed to the bottom end of the upper ring sleeve 101, and the bottom end of the vertical connecting plate 103 and the lower ring sleeve 102 are detachably assembled and fixed using existing plug-in, snap-fit, or other methods.

[0058] The aforementioned manual rotating structure 2 is located between the upper ring 101 and the lower ring 102. The bottom end of the manual rotating structure abuts against the spring 106. A lower rack 201 is provided at the top of the manual rotating structure, and the lower rack meshes with the upper rack 104 under the action of the spring. Both the upper and lower racks are right-angled triangular racks. This rack shape forces the rotating structure to move in one direction, and displacement occurs due to the rack's inclination. The manual rotating structure includes an annular shell, with the lower rack 201 located at the top of the annular shell. A funnel-shaped inner cylinder 202 is provided inside the annular shell, and the outer diameter of the bottom opening of the funnel-shaped inner cylinder is not greater than the inner diameter of the lower ring 102.

[0059] The aforementioned smoke guiding and ash collecting structure 3 is detachably snapped together with the lower ring 102 of the outer shell structure 1. A groove 301 is provided in the middle of the smoke guiding and ash collecting structure for collecting smoke ash. A lower flue 302 corresponding to the upper flue 107 is provided on the outside of the groove. Both the upper and lower flues include multiple flues arranged at intervals.

[0060] A recessed platform 303 is provided on the top outer wall of the smoke guiding and ash collecting structure, and a locking protrusion 304 is provided in the recessed platform. A locking interface 108 is provided at the bottom of the lower ring sleeve 102 in conjunction with the locking protrusion 304. The outer shell structure is detachably snapped together with the smoke guiding and ash collecting structure through the locking protrusion and the locking interface.

[0061] The aforementioned protrusion 304 is an inverted L-shaped elastic protrusion. The bottom end of the inverted L-shaped elastic protrusion is fixed to the bottom wall of the recess. The inverted L-shaped elastic protrusion has a certain elastic movement range in the recess along the horizontal depth direction of the recess. The card interface is a card interface that is adapted to and engages with the upper part of the inverted L-shaped elastic protrusion.

[0062] The card interface 108 includes an inverted L-shaped opening at the bottom of the lower ring sleeve 102. Thus, when the inverted L-shaped elastic protrusion is initially pushed inward and smoothly enters the inverted L-shaped opening at the bottom of the lower ring sleeve 102, it is initially confined to one side wall of the recess 303. As it continues to extend upward into the inverted L-shaped opening, the top of the inverted L-shaped elastic protrusion enters the upper opening of the inverted L-shaped opening and returns to its original shape, achieving engagement with the card interface. When disassembly is required, the inverted L-shaped elastic protrusion is pushed inward again at the recess position, and then the smoke guiding and ash collecting structure is separated from the card interface 108 at the bottom of the lower ring sleeve 102.

[0063] In use, the spherical backflow incense stick 8 is placed in the funnel-shaped inner cylinder 202 of the manually rotating structure 2. The manually rotating structure 2 is mounted on the inner side of the outer shell structure 1 via upper and lower racks. Then, the lower ring sleeve 102 is connected and fixed to the vertical connecting plate 103. At this time, the bottom end of the rotating structure abuts against the spring 106 at the top of the lower ring sleeve, achieving good meshing of the upper and lower racks. The ash collection and smoke guiding structure 3 is then assembled to the inverted L-shaped opening at the bottom of the lower ring sleeve 102 via an inverted L-shaped elastic latch, achieving the connection and assembly of the smoke guiding structure 3 with the outer shell structure 1. At this time, the upper flue 107 and the lower flue 302 correspond. When the backflow incense stick burns, the smoke flows downwards into the groove 301 and overflows into the upper flue outside the groove, continuing downwards into the lower flue. The groove facilitates the collection of ash during combustion. To prevent ash accumulation on the inner funnel-shaped cylinder 202, the rotating structure 2 can be manually rotated circumferentially. Specifically, the rotating structure 2 is pressed down appropriately to compress the spring 106, allowing the lower and upper racks to slide at an incline. During rotation, the racks continuously mesh and slide again, achieving the up-and-down movement of the rotating structure. The resulting vibrations gather the ash on the inner funnel-shaped cylinder and facilitate its fall into the lower groove 301 for collection. This process does not affect the smoke flow, eliminating the possibility of ash smoke continuing to flow downwards into the interior space of the incense burner, especially the display space, resulting in a cleaner process. Furthermore, a lid for the incense burner is installed above the outer shell structure 1 during use, creating a near-enclosed environment for the backflow incense and increasing the wind resistance of the burning material.

[0064] Example 2

[0065] like Figure 13The illustration shows a structure in which the manual rotary incense ash collector 7 of Embodiment 1 is assembled with a backflow incense diffuser. The backflow incense diffuser includes a base 4, a hollow transparent glass section 5, and a top cover 6. Display items are placed inside the hollow transparent glass section. The base is a patterned hollow base. The manual rotary incense ash collector 7 of Embodiment 1 is placed between the hollow transparent glass section 5 and the top cover 6.

[0066] The specific installation involves installing a plug at the bottom of the manual rotary incense ash collector, which connects (sealed) to the insertion hole on the top surface of the hollow transparent glass section 5. This allows the smoke flowing down from the bottom of the manual rotary incense ash collector to smoothly enter the central transparent glass section and then flow down to the base and overflow. The top cover is either fitted onto the top of the manual rotary incense ash collector or screwed in.

[0067] The above description is merely an embodiment of this application, and the scope of protection of this application is not limited to these specific embodiments, but is determined by the claims of this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the technical concept and principles of this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
