Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of incense holder technology, and more particularly to an adjustable incense holder. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, incense burning, as a traditional cultural custom, a way to cultivate the mind and body, and an interior decoration method, has become increasingly popular. Incense sticks are typically made from raw incense materials and spices through simple processing such as washing, drying, and cutting. They are widely used in offices, hotels, clubs, and other settings, serving to regulate the atmosphere, purify the air, and cultivate well-being. However, traditional incense holder designs are often fixed and cannot accommodate incense sticks of different thicknesses, nor can they flexibly adjust the shape of the holder or the diameter of the incense stick's holes, causing inconvenience for users. Most existing incense holders have fixed hole diameters, typically 3mm, or sometimes multiple hole diameters to accommodate different thicknesses of incense sticks. However, the holes for inserting the incense are usually fixed in a base with multiple holes of different diameters. Since incense sticks are often not made to have a uniform outer diameter during manufacturing, this makes it difficult to insert the incense stick or prevents it from standing upright and stable after insertion. Since it is impossible to make the incense stick stand vertically and stably, the incense tray needs to be large enough to catch the incense ash; the depth of the incense insert hole is basically between 0.6-1.5cm, and the remaining incense roots cannot be quickly removed.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent document CN202421007837.4 discloses a stacked incense holder with adjustable shape and aperture, composed of multiple incense holder plates stacked and rotated sequentially. Each plate has an incense insertion hole in the center, and the plates are stacked and rotated around the hole. The plates are petal-shaped, measuring 7×6.8cm and 0.5mm thick, made of soft metal. They have slits and creases at a 90° angle, with one end of the slit and the other extending to the incense insertion hole, which has a diameter of 2.5mm. However, this patented product still has the problem of being difficult to adjust in actual use. Because the incense sticks are often thin and fragile, they are easily cut when adjusting the incense insertion hole, making it inconvenient to use. It also makes it difficult to quickly remove any remaining incense residue. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, in order to address the above-mentioned problems, the present invention proposes an adjustable incense holder with a reasonable structure that can quickly and adaptively adjust the insertion hole according to the thickness of the incense stick and clamp the incense stick, and can quickly remove the remaining incense root.

[0005] To solve this technical problem, the present invention adopts the following solution: an adjustable incense holder, comprising a base, a hollow rotating column, and a rotating cover, further comprising an aperture adjustment assembly and an ejection assembly. The hollow rotating column is rotatably mounted on the base, and a support seat is provided at the top of the hollow rotating column. The rotating cover, which can rotate around its own axis, is mounted on the support seat. The rotating cover has an insertion hole at its center. The support seat has a through hole at the corresponding position of the insertion hole. The aperture adjustment assembly is disposed between the support seat and the rotating cover to adjust the aperture of the insertion hole. The aperture adjustment assembly includes multiple adjustment blocks, each adjustment block having a guide protrusion at its bottom and a driving protrusion at its top. The support seat has an installation cavity for accommodating each adjustment block. The installation cavity of the support seat has multiple first guide grooves corresponding to the number of adjustment blocks. The rotating cover faces the support seat. The surface is provided with multiple driving grooves corresponding to the number of adjusting blocks. The adjusting blocks are spliced ​​together to form a central through hole with a variable diameter. The guide protrusions of each adjusting block are movably embedded in the first guide grooves. The driving protrusions of each adjusting block are movably embedded in the driving grooves. When the rotating cover rotates around its own axis, the cooperation between the driving grooves and the driving protrusions drives the multiple adjusting blocks to synchronously retract or open radially, thereby continuously changing the size of the central through hole and realizing adaptive adjustment of the central through hole. The ejection assembly is located in the hollow rotating column and has a top column that can extend or retract vertically or rise and fall vertically. The top column passes through the through hole of the support base. The ejection assembly can push the top column up to pass through and protrude from the insertion hole of the rotating cover, or the ejection assembly can pull the top column down to seal the top of the top column to the through hole of the support base.

[0006] Furthermore, the aperture adjustment assembly also includes a first magnet and a second magnet. The first magnet and the second magnet are respectively disposed between the rotating cover and the support base, and initially the ends of the first magnet and the second magnet face opposite magnetic properties. Initially, the rotating cover drives multiple adjustment blocks to retract synchronously in the radial direction.

[0007] Furthermore, the rotating cover is provided with a slide block, and the support base is provided with a sliding groove around its periphery. The rotating cover is rotatably connected by the slide block and the sliding groove of the support base.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a limiting ring, which is fitted onto the hollow rotating column. The support base is also provided with at least one limiting groove on its periphery. The limiting ring extends upward at each limiting groove and is provided with a matching limiting post. Each limiting post of the limiting ring is inserted into each limiting groove.

[0009] Furthermore, the ejection assembly includes a top column, a spring, and a movable seat. The top column is positioned above the movable seat, and the spring is sleeved on the top column with its two ends abutting against the movable seat and the support seat, respectively. The inner wall of the hollow rotating column is provided with a longitudinal groove, and the side wall of the movable seat is provided with a longitudinal slider that matches the longitudinal groove. The movable seat moves vertically up and down through the cooperation of the longitudinal slider and the longitudinal groove. At least two arc-shaped guide plates are evenly distributed on the base below the movable seat, and each arc-shaped guide plate is gradually raised from one side to the other. An arc-shaped sliding plate extends downward from the periphery of the movable seat and cooperates with each arc-shaped guide plate. The hollow rotating column rotates relative to the base, causing the arc-shaped sliding plate of the movable seat to rise along the arc-shaped guide plate, thereby compressing the spring and simultaneously causing the top column to rise and protrude from the insertion hole of the rotating cover. Then, the arc-shaped sliding plate falls onto the base, and the movable seat descends under the reset of the spring, causing the top column to return to its low position.

[0010] Furthermore, a third magnet is provided at the center of the upper surface of the base, and a fourth magnet is provided above the third magnet on the movable seat. The magnetic properties of the third magnet and the fourth magnet are opposite at their respective ends.

[0011] Furthermore, the drive groove of the rotating cover is arranged axially and in the same direction on the circumferential side of the insertion hole.

[0012] Furthermore, each adjustment block has a coaxial inclined edge, and the front ends of each adjustment block are spliced ​​together into a polygon that gradually shrinks during the retraction process.

[0013] By adopting the aforementioned technical solution, the beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By setting an aperture adjustment component between the rotating cover and the support base, when the rotating cover rotates around its own axis, the cooperation of each driving groove and each driving protrusion drives multiple adjustment blocks to synchronously close or open radially, thereby continuously changing the aperture size of the central through hole and achieving adaptive adjustment of the central through hole. This allows the rotating cover to be opened to insert the incense stick, and then rotated in the closing direction to fix the incense stick. It is suitable for inserting incense sticks of different sizes, and can quickly and adaptively adjust the insertion hole according to the thickness of the incense stick to clamp the incense stick. The simultaneous closing of multiple adjustment blocks will not break the incense stick, making it convenient and quick to use. By setting a push-out component inside the hollow rotating column, the push-out column passes through the through hole of the support base. The push-out component can push the push-out column upward to pass through and protrude from the insertion hole of the rotating cover, or the push-out component can pull the push-out column downward to seal the top of the push-out column to the through hole of the support base. When the incense stick burns out, the push-out column pushes it upward to quickly push out all the remaining incense stick roots, making cleaning easier and more convenient to use. The aperture adjustment component is also equipped with a first magnet and a second magnet. After the incense is inserted, the opposite poles of the first and second magnets attract each other, causing the rotating cover to automatically close. This achieves automatic adaptive clamping of the incense, eliminating the need for manual rotation and preventing the incense from being broken due to excessive force during manual clamping. The sliding grooves on the rotating cover and the support base ensure a more stable and smooth rotation of the overall structure. The limit ring further stabilizes the rotational structure between the rotating cover and the support base. The ejection component uses a top column, spring, moving base, and guide arc plate on the base to achieve a purely mechanical structure that drives the top column to move up and down. The structure is durable and easy to use. The third and fourth magnets on the base and the moving base help the moving base to reset, preventing the top column from failing to descend and reset due to insufficient spring compression. This reduces the need for excessive spring resistance, making it easy for users to rotate the ejection component. Attached Figure Description

[0017] refer to Figures 1-9The preferred adjustable incense holder of the present invention includes a base 1, a hollow rotating column 2 and a rotating cover 3, an aperture adjustment assembly, an ejection assembly, and a limiting ring 6. The hollow rotating column 2 is rotatably mounted on the base 1, and a support seat 21 is provided on the top of the hollow rotating column 2. The rotating cover 3 is rotatably mounted on the support seat 21 and is rotatable around its own axis. The rotating cover 3 has an insertion hole 31 at its center, and the support seat 21 has a through hole 211 at the corresponding position of the insertion hole 31. The aperture adjustment assembly is located between the support seat 21 and the rotating cover 3 to adjust the aperture of the insertion hole 31. The aperture adjustment assembly includes six adjustment blocks 41, a third adjustment block 42, and a fourth adjustment block 43. A magnet 42 and a second magnet 43 are provided. Each adjusting block 41 has a guide protrusion 411 at its bottom and a driving protrusion 412 at its top. The support base 21 has a mounting cavity to accommodate each adjusting block 41. The mounting cavity of the support base 21 has six first guide grooves 212 corresponding to the number of adjusting blocks 41. The rotating cover 3 has six driving inclined grooves 32 corresponding to the number of adjusting blocks 41 on its side facing the support base 21. The driving inclined grooves 32 of the rotating cover 3 are arranged axially and in the same direction on the circumferential side of the insertion hole 31. Each adjusting block 41 is spliced ​​together to form a central through hole with a variable diameter. Each adjustment block 41 has a coaxial inclined edge, and the front end of each adjustment block 41 gradually shrinks into a polygon during the retraction process. The guide protrusion 411 of each adjustment block 41 is movably embedded in the first guide groove 212, and the drive protrusion 412 of each adjustment block 41 is movably embedded in the drive inclined groove 32. The first magnet 42 and the second magnet 43 are respectively located between the rotating cover 3 and the support base 21, and initially, the ends of the first magnet 42 and the second magnet 43 facing each other have opposite magnetism. Initially, the rotating cover 3 drives multiple adjustment blocks 41 to retract synchronously in the radial direction. When the cover 3 rotates around its own axis, the cooperation of each driving groove 32 and each driving protrusion 412 drives multiple adjusting blocks 41 to synchronously retract or open radially, thereby continuously changing the size of the central through hole and realizing adaptive adjustment of the central through hole. The ejection assembly is located inside the hollow rotating column 2 and the ejection assembly is equipped with a top column 51 that can extend and retract or rise and fall. The top column 51 passes through the through hole 211 of the support base 21. The ejection assembly can push the top column 51 up to pass through and protrude from the insertion hole 31 of the rotating cover 3, or the ejection assembly can pull the top column 51 down so that the top of the top column 51 seals the through hole 211 of the support base 21.The ejection assembly includes a top column 51, a spring 52, and a movable seat 53. The top column 51 is positioned above the movable seat 53. The spring 52 is sleeved on the top column 51, with its two ends abutting against the movable seat 53 and the support seat 21, respectively. The inner wall of the hollow rotating column 2 is provided with a longitudinal groove. The side wall of the movable seat 53 is provided with a longitudinal slider 531 that matches the longitudinal groove. The movable seat 53 moves vertically up and down through the cooperation of the longitudinal slider 531 and the longitudinal groove. Two arc-shaped blocks are evenly distributed on the base 1 below the movable seat.

The movable seat 53 has an arc-shaped sliding plate 532 extending downward around its periphery to cooperate with each arc-shaped guide plate 11. The hollow rotating column 2 rotates relative to the base 1, causing the arc-shaped sliding plate 532 of the movable seat 53 to rise along the arc-shaped guide plate 11, thereby compressing the spring 52 and simultaneously causing the top column 51 to rise and protrude from the insertion hole 31 of the rotating cover 3. Then, the arc-shaped sliding plate 532 falls onto the base 1, and the movable seat 53 descends under the reset of the spring 52, causing the top column 51 to return to its low position. A third magnet 12 is provided at the center of the upper surface of the base 1, and a fourth magnet 533 is provided on the movable seat 53 above the third magnet 12. The third magnet 12 and the fourth magnet 533 have opposite magnetic properties at their opposite ends.

The limiting ring 6 is provided with a matching limiting post 61 extending upward at each limiting groove 214. Each limiting post 61 of the limiting ring 6 is inserted into each limiting groove 214.

[0019] In the above embodiments, the first and second magnets of the aperture adjustment component can be omitted. The first and second magnets are included to enable adaptive clamping and prevent excessive clamping force. The third and fourth magnets can also be omitted, but their inclusion allows for smoother resetting of the moving seat. The rotating cover, aperture adjustment component, and ejection component are all made of high-temperature resistant materials, such as high-temperature resistant plastics, stainless steel, alloys, or high-temperature resistant metals. The aperture adjustment component can have 4, 7, 9, 10, or more or fewer adjustment blocks, as long as they can be spliced ​​together to form a gradually scaling polygon for aperture adjustment. The arc-shaped guide plates on the base can also be spaced 3 or 4 blocks, as long as they allow the moving seat to gradually rise as it follows the hollow rotating column and eject the rotating cover's insertion hole from the top column, and then fall through the designated intervals after reaching the highest point. The base, hollow rotating column, and limiting ring can be made of plastic or metal.
