[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0030] Embodiment 1:

[0031] This embodiment provides an oil supply device 200, such as Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, it includes a base 210, an oil supply tank (not shown), an oil pipe 220, and a control system 230. The base 210 is provided with a plurality of platforms 211 arranged in a step-like manner, and each platform is provided with an oil tank 2111. The oil tank is provided with an opening (not shown) for inserting the bottom end of the wick. The oil pipe 220 connects the oil supply tank and the oil tank 2111. The control system 230 is used to control the oil supply tank to supply oil to the oil tank 2111,

[0032] In the above-mentioned oil supply device 200, the bottom end of the wick 120 is inserted into the oil tank 2111 through the opening, the two ends of the oil pipe 220 are connected to the oil supply pool and the oil tank 2111, and the control system 230 can control the oil supply pool to supply oil to the oil tank 2111. Therefore, when the oil is insufficient, continuous oil supply to multiple oil lamps 100 can be achieved by simply adding ghee to the oil supply pool, which is conducive to reducing the tediousness of adding oil for the staff and reducing the risk of fire caused by improper oil adding operation.

[0033] It should be noted that one oil supply device 200 can supply oil to multiple oil lamps 100 at the same time. The base 210 can be provided with multiple platforms 211, and one oil tank 2111 can supply oil to multiple oil lamps 100 at the same time. The number of platforms 211 and the number of oil lamps 100 are not limited here and can be designed according to actual conditions. Specifically, in this embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, the base 210 includes three platforms 211 , each of which is provided with an oil tank 2111 . One oil tank 2111 can supply oil to three oil lamps 100 at the same time, that is, one base 210 can supply oil to nine oil lamps 100 at the same time.

[0034] It should also be noted that the ghee in the present application is liquid ghee, which can flow freely in the oil supply pool, the oil pipe 220, and the oil tank 2111, and can be adsorbed by the wick 120 and transported to the combustion part. In addition, the liquid level in the oil tank 2111 is controlled within a preset range to prevent the ghee in the oil tank from overflowing.

[0035] In one embodiment, a liquid level sensor (not shown) and a communication module (not shown) are provided in the oil tank 2111. The liquid level sensor is connected to the control system 230 through the communication module. The control system 230 controls the flow rate of shortening in the oil pipe 220 according to the signal of the communication module.

[0036] It should be noted that the liquid level sensor can detect the position of the liquid butter in the oil tank 2111. When the position of the liquid butter in the oil tank 2111 drops below the preset liquid level, the liquid level sensor sends an oil supply instruction to the control system 230. After receiving the oil supply instruction, the control system 230 extracts butter in the oil supply pool through the oil pipe 220 connected to the oil supply chamber 114 to increase the oil supply rate.

[0037] Furthermore, the control system 230 includes a one-way stop valve (not shown) and an oil pump (not shown). The one-way stop valve is arranged in the oil pipe 220. The oil pump is used to inject the ghee in the oil supply pool into the oil tank 2111 through the oil pipe 220. When the ghee in the oil supply pool is injected into the oil supply chamber 114 through the oil pipe 220, the one-way stop valve opens to ensure that the ghee can pass smoothly. The one-way flow effect of the one-way stop valve ensures that the ghee will not flow back after the oil supply to the oil supply chamber 114 is completed.

[0038] In one embodiment, the oil tank 2111 is connected to the oil supply pool to form an oil loop. When in use, the oil pump draws the ghee in the oil supply pool into the oil tank 2111 and flows in the oil tank 2111, wherein part of the ghee is adsorbed by the wick 120 to the combustion part for combustion, and the remaining ghee flows back to the oil supply pool through the loop. With such arrangement, when the oil pump works normally, it is possible to keep the oil tank 2111 always having flowing ghee, and it is also possible to prevent the static liquid ghee from solidifying and affecting the oil supply to the combustion part, which is conducive to improving the use stability and safety of the entire oil lamp system 10.

[0039] Embodiment 2:

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment also provides an oil lamp system 10, including an oil lamp 100 and the above-mentioned oil supply device 200. The oil lamp 100 includes a wick (not shown) and a lamp body 110. The top of the wick is provided with a burning part. The bottom of the lamp body 110 is provided with an oil supply cavity 114 connected to the oil groove 2111. The lower end of the wick 120 is inserted into the oil groove 2111 after being passed through the lamp body 110.

[0041] Furthermore, the lamp body 110 includes an upper cover 111, a middle support 112, and a lower cover 113. The burning part extends out of the upper cover 111. The middle support 112 is connected to the upper cover 111 and the lower cover 113, and can be held by the user for easy placement and transportation. The oil supply chamber 114 is arranged in the inner space of the lower cover 113. The wick 120 is sequentially inserted into the upper cover 111, the middle support 112, and the lower cover 113, and the bottom end of the wick 120 is inserted into the oil supply chamber 114 in the lower cover 113, and contacts with the ghee in the oil supply chamber 114.

[0042] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a wire groove 240 is provided on the platform 211. Multiple oil supply parts on the same platform 211 are connected to the wire groove 240. At this time, the oil pipe 220 is arranged in the wire groove 240, which can improve the stability of the oil pipe 220 and prevent the oil pipe 220 from shaking on the platform 211, which is conducive to improving the stability of oil supply to the oil lamp 100.

[0043] Further, in one embodiment, the wick 120 includes a combustion body (not shown) and an oil supply column (not shown). The top of the combustion body is provided with a combustion part. The oil supply column is provided at the periphery of the combustion body. The bottom end of the oil supply column is inserted into the oil supply cavity 114 and supplies oil to the combustion part.

[0044] Therefore, the ghee in the oil tank 2111 can be firstly adsorbed by the oil supply column, and then transported to the combustion body through the oil supply column, thereby providing ghee to the combustion part. It should be noted that the number of the oil supply column can be one or more. Specifically, in this embodiment, the number of the oil supply column is three.

[0045] In addition, since the combustion body needs to be made of a burn-resistant material, such as at least one of glass fiber and asbestos, to improve the durability of the wick 120, and burn-resistant materials such as glass fiber and asbestos do not have good oil absorption capabilities, it is necessary to install an oil supply column with stronger oil absorption capabilities near the combustion body to ensure that the wick 120 is both burn-resistant and has good oil absorption performance.

[0046] Embodiment 3:

[0047] The upper end in this embodiment refers to the end of the component facing upward in the vertical direction; the lower end refers to the end of the component facing downward in the vertical direction.

[0048] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the present application provides a wick 120, including a combustion body 121 and an oil supply column 122. The combustion body 121 is strip-shaped and placed vertically. An oil burning portion 1211 is arranged at the upper end of the combustion body 121. The oil supply column 122 is made of rush or other materials with strong oil absorption capacity (the criterion for judging its oil absorption capacity is: it can absorb ghee to a position above 50 mm in the vertical direction). The oil supply column 122 is arranged along the periphery of the combustion body 121. The lower end of the oil supply column 122 is inserted into ghee to absorb ghee, so as to transport the ghee to the combustion portion 1211 of the combustion body 121.

[0049] It can be seen that the above-mentioned wick 120 uses rush to make the oil supply column 122 to assist the combustion body 121 to absorb ghee, and can transport the ghee to the combustion part 1211 of the combustion body 121, so that the function of the wick 120 is divided into two parts: oil absorption and combustion. Since the oil absorption capacity of the oil supply column 122 is much greater than the oil absorption capacity of the combustion body 121. Therefore, the oil supply column 122 in the present application can supply oil to the combustion body 121 exceeding 50mm in the vertical direction, so that the total length of the wick 120 in the vertical direction can exceed 50mm, thereby removing the restrictions on the size and shape of the combustion lamp 1, which is conducive to improving the aesthetics and convenience of use of the combustion lamp 1.

[0050] It should be noted that the main function of the oil supply column 122 is to absorb the ghee from the lower end to the upper end, and the main function of the combustion body 121 is to burn. In addition, the combustion body 121 needs to have a certain oil absorption capacity, and can absorb the ghee transmitted by the oil supply column 122 to the combustion part 1211. In the present application, the combustion body 121 has an inner core and an outer core. The inner core is a strip structure made of glass fiber, and the outer core is a tubular structure made of asbestos, that is, the inner core is inserted in the hollow tube cavity of the outer core. Therefore, the combustion body 121 has strong combustibility, strong burning resistance, and has a certain oil absorption capacity. When the oil supply column 122 transports ghee to the bottom of the combustion part 1211, the combustion body 121 can absorb this part of ghee transported to the combustion part 1211 for the combustion of the combustion part 1211.

[0051] It can be understood that the oil supply column 122 can be closely attached to the combustion body 121, or a small gap can be left between the oil supply column 122 and the combustion body 121. When a small gap is left between the oil supply column 122 and the combustion body 121, it can still ensure that the oil adsorbed by the oil supply column 122 can be transported to the area where the combustion part 1211 of the combustion body 121 is located. Of course, the closer the oil supply column 122 is attached to the combustion body 121, the faster and more effectively the oil adsorbed by the oil supply column 122 can be transported to the combustion part 1211.

[0052] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the oil supply column 122 is in a strip structure, and a plurality of oil supply columns 122 are attached to the outer periphery of the combustion body 121 to supply oil to the combustion part 1211. At this time, the shortening absorbed by the oil supply column 122 can gradually move upward along the oil supply column 122.

[0053] In other embodiments, the oil supply column 122 is disposed around the outer circumference of the combustion body 121 to supply oil to the combustion part 1211. In this case, the oil supply column 122 is more closely connected to the combustion body 121, and the efficiency of conveying shortening to the combustion body 121 is higher and the effect is better.
