Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lamps, and in particular to a breathing lamp. Background Art

[0002] As living standards improve, night lights are becoming increasingly popular. Currently, silicone night lights on the market are generally used for lighting purposes, often placed in a static display mode at home, with relatively simple functions. To increase the fun factor, some existing technologies have also introduced interesting designs, such as smart lighting designs that can make night lights emit different colors, or vibrate and change color by tapping the silicone shell, or cause it to deform by tapping. Overall, existing night light products still lack interactivity and playability.

[0003] In view of this, it is urgent to improve the existing silica gel night light. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Based on the above, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a breathing lamp with the characteristics of simple structure, easy installation and strong interest. The pull rod of this device is driven by the driving mechanism to cause the shell to deform, forming a dynamic breathing effect, and the pull rod and the shell can be automatically reset.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A breathing lamp includes a shell, a base and a light-emitting component. The shell is connected to the base, and the light-emitting component is installed on the base. The shell is made of a flexible material. A driving mechanism and a transmission mechanism are also installed on the base. A pull rod is connected between the transmission mechanism and the shell. The driving mechanism drives the pull rod to move in the vertical direction through the transmission mechanism.

[0006] Preferably, the driving mechanism is a motor, and the transmission mechanism includes a first pulley, a second pulley and a belt, the first pulley is connected to the output shaft of the motor, and the belt is sleeved on the first pulley and the second pulley.

[0007] Preferably, a first locking member is provided on the housing, a second locking member is provided at a position of the second pulley deviating from the axis, and both ends of the pull rod are connected to the first locking member and the second locking member respectively.

[0008] Preferably, a lampshade is further mounted on the base, and a first opening is provided on the lampshade, and the pull rod passes through the first opening and is connected to the housing.

[0009] Preferably, the lampshade is made of transparent frosted material or translucent frosted material.

[0010] Preferably, a plurality of inverted "L"-shaped hooks are respectively provided on both sides of the base, a plurality of first bayonet holes are provided on the lampshade, and each of the inverted "L"-shaped hooks is respectively connected to the first bayonet hole.

[0011] Preferably, an annular groove is provided at the bottom of the shell, and a plurality of second bayonet holes are provided on one side wall of the annular groove. The base and the lampshade are embedded in the annular groove after being assembled, and the hook portion of the inverted "L"-shaped hook passes through the first bayonet hole and is embedded in the second bayonet hole.

[0012] Preferably, the housing includes a first region portion connected to the base, and a second region portion not connected to the base, and a thickness of the second region is less than or equal to a thickness of the first region.

[0013] Preferably, the housing is provided with ventilation holes.

[0014] Preferably, the pull rod is a spring pull rod.

[0015] Preferably, a column is further provided on the base, and the light-emitting element is mounted on the column.

[0016] Preferably, the light-emitting element is an LED light board, and there are two LED light boards, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the base.

[0017] Preferably, the base is also provided with a power supply, a power switch and a sensor; when the power switch is turned off, if the sensor senses that the pull rod is in a non-preset position, the sensor will send an electrical signal to enable the drive mechanism to drive the pull rod to the preset position through the transmission mechanism.

[0018] Preferably, the sensor is a through-beam photoelectric switch, and a positioning member is further provided on the first pulley or the second pulley; when the power switch is turned off, if the electrical signal emitted by the through-beam photoelectric switch cannot act on the positioning member, the driving mechanism works and drives the first pulley and / or the second pulley to rotate, so that the position of the positioning member changes until the electrical signal emitted by the through-beam photoelectric switch can act on the positioning member.

[0019] Preferably, a speaker is also installed on the base, and the power supply is electrically connected to the light-emitting element, the speaker and the sensor respectively.

[0020] Preferably, the power source is a cylindrical battery, which is installed obliquely on the base.

[0021] Preferably, the housing and the first locking member are integrally formed.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This technical solution includes a shell, a base and a light-emitting component. A pull rod is connected between the transmission mechanism and the shell. Since the shell is made of flexible material (such as silicone, rubber, etc.), the pull rod of this device causes the shell to deform under the drive mechanism, forming a dynamic breathing effect.

[0023] The base of this technical solution is provided with a plurality of inverted "L"-shaped hooks on both sides, the lampshade is provided with a plurality of first latches, the bottom of the housing is provided with an annular groove, and a plurality of second latches are provided on one side wall of the annular groove. After the base and the lampshade are assembled, they are embedded in the annular groove, and the hook portion of the inverted "L"-shaped hook passes through the first latch and then embeds into the second latch. This makes the device easy to install. The base only needs to be provided with an inverted "L"-shaped hook to connect to both the lampshade and the housing. Furthermore, this assembly method allows the base to be installed horizontally, so when using the product protected by this technical solution, the base can be used to achieve horizontal placement.

[0024] This technical solution, by providing a through-beam photoelectric switch and a positioning member, can achieve automatic resetting of the pull rod and the housing after the power switch is turned off; specifically, the positioning member is provided on the first pulley or the second pulley, and when the power switch is turned off, if the electrical signal emitted by the through-beam photoelectric switch cannot act on the positioning member, the driving mechanism works and drives the first pulley and / or the second pulley to rotate, so that the position of the positioning member changes until the electrical signal emitted by the through-beam photoelectric switch can act on the positioning member; therefore, when the device is not working, the shape of the housing is reset to improve the aesthetics and decorativeness of the breathing lamp in a static state.

[0025] The housing of this technical solution is provided with air holes to achieve air pressure balance inside and outside the housing. Under the action of the up and down movement of the pull rod, the base is prevented from falling off due to the internal pressure when the housing rises and falls, and the housing is prevented from automatically recovering due to pressure imbalance.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] To make the technical problems solved, the technical solutions adopted, and the technical effects achieved by the present invention more clearly understood, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is apparent that the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "connected," "connected," and "fixed" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they may refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integration; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and internal communication between two components or interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention in specific circumstances.

[0031] In the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include the first feature being in direct contact with the second feature, or may include the first feature being in contact with the second feature through another feature between them instead of being in direct contact. Moreover, a first feature being "above," "above," and "above" a second feature may include the first feature being directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below," "below," and "below" a second feature may include the first feature being directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0032] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and other orientations or positional relationships are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are intended solely for ease of description and simplified operation. They do not indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used solely for descriptive purposes and have no special meanings.

[0033] A preferred embodiment of the present application provides a breathing light comprising a housing, a base, and a light-emitting element. The housing is connected to the base, and the light-emitting element is mounted on the base. The housing is made of a flexible material, such as silicone or rubber. The base is also mounted with a drive mechanism and a transmission mechanism, which acts on the housing to deform it. Specifically, the force of the transmission mechanism is transmitted to the housing, causing the housing to deform. In conjunction with the light-emitting element, a dynamic breathing effect is created.

[0034] As another preferred embodiment of the present application, refer to Figure 1-4The present application provides a breathing lamp, comprising a shell 1, a base 2 and a light-emitting component 3. The shell 1 is connected to the base 2, and the light-emitting component 3 is installed on the base 2. The shell 1 is made of a flexible material, such as silicone, rubber and other materials; a driving mechanism 4 and a transmission mechanism 5 are also installed on the base 2. In order to make it more convenient for the transmission mechanism 5 to act on the shell, a pull rod 6 is connected between the transmission mechanism 5 and the shell 1; the driving mechanism 4 drives the pull rod 6 through the transmission mechanism 5 to cause the shell 1 to deform. For example, the deformation can be that the shell 1 is displaced in the vertical direction.

[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, the pull rod 6 of the device is displaced in the vertical direction under the drive of the driving mechanism 4, so that the shell 1 will also rise and fall back and forth, thereby deforming and forming a dynamic breathing effect.

[0036] Specifically, if Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the driving mechanism 4 is a motor. Alternatively, the driving mechanism 4 can also be other structures that generate rotational motion, such as a rotating cylinder, etc.; the transmission mechanism 5 includes a first pulley 51, a second pulley 52 and a belt 53, the first pulley 51 is connected to the output shaft of the motor, and the belt 53 is sleeved on the first pulley 51 and the second pulley 52.

[0037] Specifically, if Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, a first retaining member 11 is provided on the housing 1, a second retaining member 521 is provided at a position offset from the axis of the second pulley 52, and both ends of the pull rod 6 are connected to the first retaining member 11 and the second retaining member 521 respectively.

[0038] Specifically, if Figure 5 As shown, a lampshade 7 is further mounted on the base 2 . The lampshade 7 is provided with a first opening 71 . The pull rod 6 passes through the first opening 71 and is connected to the housing 1 .

[0039] Specifically, the lampshade 7 is made of a transparent frosted material or a translucent frosted material, so that the light generated by the light-emitting element 3 is softer, the light emitted by the light-emitting element 3 through the lampshade 7 does not hurt the eyes and the brightness is more uniform.

[0040] Specifically, if Figure 5-7 As shown, a plurality of inverted “L”-shaped hooks 21 are respectively provided on both sides of the base 2 , and a plurality of first bayonet holes 72 are provided on the lampshade 7 , and each of the inverted “L”-shaped hooks 21 is respectively engaged with the first bayonet holes 72 .

[0041] Specifically, if Figure 5As shown, the bottom of the housing 1 is provided with an annular groove 12, and a plurality of second bayonet holes 121 are provided on one side wall of the annular groove 12. After the base 2 and the lampshade 7 are assembled, they are embedded in the annular groove 12, and the hook portion 211 of the inverted "L"-shaped hook 21 passes through the first bayonet hole 72 and then embeds into the second bayonet hole 121. This makes the device easy to install. The base 2 only needs to be provided with the inverted "L"-shaped hook 21 to connect to the lampshade 7 and the housing 1 at the same time. Furthermore, the above assembly method allows the base 2 to be installed horizontally. When using the product protected by this technical solution, the base 2 can be used to achieve horizontal placement.

[0042] It should be noted that, in order to accommodate the base 2 , the bottom of the housing 1 is open, that is, the bottom of the housing includes a second opening 16 .

[0043] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, the housing 1 includes a first region 14 connected to the base 2 and a second region 15 not connected to the base 2. The thickness of the second region is less than or equal to that of the first region. In other words, the housing 1 of this device is thicker near the base 2, providing a more secure fit.

[0044] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, the housing 1 is provided with a vent 13. The purpose of the vent 13 is to achieve pressure balance inside and outside the housing 1. Under the action of the up and down movement of the pull rod 6, the connection between the flexible housing 1 and the pull rod 6 will also rise and fall, creating a dynamic breathing effect. Without the vent 13, when the housing 1 of this device rises and falls, the internal pressure can easily cause the base 2 to fall off, or air cannot enter the housing 1, resulting in pressure imbalance and the housing 1 being unable to automatically restore its shape by elasticity.

[0045] Specifically, if Figure 6 As shown, the pull rod 6 is a spring pull rod. Preferably, a snap ring 61 is provided at each end of the spring pull rod, and each snap ring 61 is respectively connected to the first retaining member 11 and the second retaining member 521. The advantage of using a spring pull rod as the pull rod of the present application is that the spring pull rod is a non-rigid component. When subjected to external pressure, the spring bends and can remove the external force. Therefore, in some cases, it can effectively prevent damage to the housing and other internal structures of the present application.

[0046] Specifically, if Figure 7 As shown, the base 2 is further provided with a plurality of columns 22, and the light-emitting element 3 is mounted on the columns 22. Furthermore, in order to prevent the device from sliding during use, the bottom surface of the base 2 of the present application is further provided with an anti-slip pad 23, and the anti-slip pad 23 is evenly distributed on the bottom surface of the base 2.

[0047] Specifically, the light-emitting element 3 is an LED light board. There are two LED light boards, which are arranged on both sides of the base 2 respectively, so as to achieve the purpose of evenly distributing the light source and saving the installation area of ​​the light board.

[0048] Furthermore, if Figure 6-10 As shown, the base 2 is also provided with a power supply 8, a power switch 81 and a sensor 9; when the power supply 8 switch is turned off, if the sensor 9 senses that the pull rod is in a non-preset position, the sensor 9 will send an electrical signal to enable the driving mechanism 4 to drive the pull rod 6 to the preset position through the transmission mechanism 5.

[0049] Specifically, if Figure 9-10 As shown, the sensor 9 is a through-beam photoelectric switch, and a positioning member 10 is further provided on the first pulley 51 or the second pulley 52. ​​Preferably, the positioning member 10 is installed on the second pulley 52. ​​When the power switch 81 is turned off, if the electrical signal emitted by the through-beam photoelectric switch cannot act on the positioning member 10, the driving mechanism 5 operates and drives the first pulley 51 and / or the second pulley 52 to rotate, so that the position of the positioning member 10 changes until the electrical signal emitted by the through-beam photoelectric switch can act on the positioning member 10. The purpose of this setting is to improve the aesthetics and decorativeness of the breathing lamp in a static state by resetting the shape of the housing 1 when the device is not working. The breathing lamp protected by this application can also be used as a household decorative piece. Therefore, having aesthetics and decorativeness is also one of the advantages of this device.

[0050] It should be noted that the through-beam photoelectric switch, consisting of a transmitter and a receiver, is directly derived from existing technology. Its operating principle is that light emitted by the transmitter directly enters the receiver. When the detected object passes between the transmitter and the receiver, blocking the light, the photoelectric switch generates a switch signal. The statement in this application that "the electrical signal emitted by the through-beam photoelectric switch can act on the positioning member" specifically means that the positioning member 10 is located between the through-beam photoelectric switch and can block the light passing between the transmitter and the receiver. At this time, the through-beam photoelectric switch is triggered to generate the relevant electrical signal, which is then transmitted to the drive mechanism.

[0051] Specifically, if Figure 6 As shown, a speaker 100 is also installed on the base 2, and the power supply 8 is electrically connected to the light-emitting element 3, the speaker 100 and the sensor 9. Different music can be played through the speaker 100 to increase the fun.

[0052] Specifically, if Figure 6As shown, the power source 8 is a cylindrical battery, which is installed obliquely on the base 2. The cylindrical battery and the side of the base form a certain angle in the horizontal direction, that is, the "inclination" is formed; this can save internal space, making the product structure more compact and smaller.

[0053] Specifically, the housing 1 and the first locking member 11 are integrally formed to improve the convenience of assembly.

[0054] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: Taking the shell 1 in the shape of a panda as an example, the shell is made of silicone and has a first retaining member 11 disposed therein, specifically, located on the panda's belly to increase the fun factor. Turning on the power switch 81 activates the device, and the motor 4 drives the first pulley 51 to rotate. The first pulley 51 transmits the rotational power to the second pulley 52 via the belt 53. The second pulley 52 is provided with a second retaining member 521 at an eccentric position (which may be at the edge of the wheel). As the second pulley 52 rotates, the pull rod 6 is displaced at least vertically. When the pull rod 6 moves downward, the interior of the shell 1 also moves downward due to the downward pulling force, thus producing a downward deformation. When the pull rod 6 moves upward, the interior of the shell 1 also moves upward due to the upward force or its own elasticity, thus producing an upward deformation. In this way, the shell 1 can rise and fall back and forth, and with the cooperation of the LED light of the light-emitting member 3, the device can create a dynamic breathing lighting effect.

[0055] When the device is not in use, the power switch 81 can be turned off. At this time, the through-beam photoelectric switch will perform the detection work. If the electrical signal emitted by the through-beam photoelectric switch cannot act on the positioning member 10, the motor 4 continues to work and drives the second pulley 52 to rotate, so that the position of the positioning member 10 changes until the electrical signal emitted by the through-beam photoelectric switch can act on the positioning member 10, thereby realizing the automatic reset of the pull rod member 6 and the housing 1.

[0056] Note that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and that various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and may include many other equivalent embodiments without departing from the concept of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
