Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of stepping stones, in particular to a stepping stone that controls surrounding landscape lights through pressure induction. Background Technique

[0002] A stepping stone is a type of stepping stone set on water. It means that stones are arranged at a certain interval in shallow water, slightly exposed above the water surface, allowing people to step across. This kind of road surface has the characteristics of simplicity, low cost, flexible paving, strong adaptability, and full of interest. In Chinese classical gardens, scattered stacked stones are often dotted on narrow and shallow water surfaces, making it easy for people to step on. Beautifying the stepping stones into the shape of lotus leaves is called "lotus steps", such as there is such a facility beside the waterside pavilion in Reed Flute Cave in Guilin. In addition, the intermittent shape of the stepping stones contrasts with the smooth water surface like a mirror, bringing an unusual viewing perspective to tourists. The stepping stones laid on the lawn are called dry stepping stones, which mainly play a guiding and ornamental role.

[0003] With the development of technology, there have emerged stepping stones that can be linked with lights. This kind of stepping stone not only has a practical function, enabling pedestrians to cross the water area safely, but also is a landscape design element full of beauty and interest. Most of the existing stepping stones that can be linked with landscape lights are connected to the lights by landscape light connection wires. For the sake of beauty, the landscape light connection wires need to be hidden in the water. Both the stepping stones and the landscape lights need to be maintained regularly to ensure their normal operation and safety. Since most of the stepping stones are in the water, the maintenance is relatively difficult.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a stepping stone that controls surrounding landscape lights through pressure induction to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

Firstly, during maintenance, the stepping stone together with the landscape light connection wires in the water can be lifted to assist subsequent maintenance. At the same time, this stepping stone can be lifted to cope with different water levels, so that the stepping board on the stepping stone is always slightly higher than the water surface. When stepping on the stepping stone, a return spring is arranged at the self-locking telescopic rod. When stepping on it, a downward pressing process can be felt, thereby increasing the interest and making the stepping stone more practical and convenient to use, so as to solve the problems put forward in the above background technique.

[0021] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it may be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood through specific circumstances.

[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-4, A stepping stone that controls surrounding landscape lights through pressure sensing, including a stepping board 1. The stepping board 1 is for decoration and at the same time protects the gravity sensor 12 installed at the lower end. A battery pack 11 is installed at the lower end of the gravity sensor 12 for power supply. The gravity sensor 12 is a prior art, similar to an existing electronic scale. When standing on the upper end, it can detect someone stepping on it through body weight, which is a prior art. Specifically, an elastic sensitive element inside the gravity sensor 12 is made into a cantilever displacement device, which works together with a storage spring to complete the conversion from gravity change to electrical signal. When the gravity sensor 12 is pressed by gravity, the elastic sensitive element inside it will deform, and this deformation will generate a voltage change. Through the deformation amount caused by gravity and using relevant circuits, this deformation amount is converted into a voltage output. In the text, when the gravity sensor 12 senses a weight on the upper end, the gravity sensor 12 will quickly detect the weight. At this time, the change in weight will drive the built-in elastic sensitive element to deform, thus converting the pressing process into an electrical signal. This electrical signal will activate the sensor 10 installed at the lower end. The sensor 10 is also connected to the battery pack 11. The activated sensor 10 will send an instruction to the battery pack 11 to release electrical energy to the landscape lights. Specifically, a landscape light connection wire 3 is provided at one end of the battery pack 11. The landscape light connection wire 3 starts the remote-controlled landscape lights by the electrical energy of the battery pack 11. When the gravity sensor 12 does not sense the weight, the sensor 10 will no longer send an instruction, and the stepping stone here will be reset. And a wire is provided at one end of the battery pack 11 to continuously supply power to the battery pack 11; the power supply equipment of the site can be used, or existing energy storage equipment can be used to supply power to the battery pack 11. This can be achieved by using prior art here.

[0024] When stepping on it, the stepping board 1 is connected to the permeable board 4 through the equipment box 2 installed at the lower end. The permeable board 4 is in a hollow shape, which can prevent water from accumulating in the equipment box 2 when pressed down. At the same time, when pressed down, a telescopic cylinder 6 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the permeable board 4. After the telescopic cylinder 6 is subjected to pressure, the reset spring 9 inside it will be pressed down, driving the telescopic cylinder 6 to be pressed down, causing the stepping board 1 to fall, thus increasing the fun of stepping. When the telescopic cylinder 6 falls, a collar 7 is provided inside the telescopic cylinder 6, which slides on the outer wall of the connecting column 8 to assist and protect the telescopic cylinder 6 in falling. The reset spring 9 will then reset the telescopic cylinder 6 later. And a self-locking telescopic rod 5 is provided at the lower end of the connecting column 8. The self-locking telescopic rod 5 is a prior art. This kind of telescopic rod usually consists of a sleeve and a rod that can be telescoped relative to the sleeve. A tightening device is fixed at one end of the rod. This tightening device can make the rod telescoped relative to the sleeve at a certain specific phase, while at other phases, the rod cannot be telescoped relative to the sleeve, thus realizing the self-locking function, which can lock the entire stepping stone at an appropriate height according to the water level. At the same time, during maintenance, the stepping stone can be completely raised.

[0025] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: As shown in the figure, the pedal 1 is for decoration, and a gravity sensor 12 is provided at the lower end. When standing on the upper end, it can detect that someone is stepping on it through the body weight. The gravity sensor 12 will quickly detect the weight. At this time, the change in weight will drive the deformation of the built-in elastic sensitive element, thereby converting the pressing process into an electrical signal. This electrical signal will activate the sensor 10 installed at the lower end. The sensor 10 is also connected to the battery pack 11. The activated sensor 10 will send an instruction to the battery pack 11 to release electrical energy to the landscape lamp, so as to activate the remotely set landscape lamp through the landscape lamp connecting wire 3; when stepping on it, the pedal 1 is connected to the permeable plate 4 through the equipment box 2 provided at the lower end. A telescopic cylinder 6 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the permeable plate 4. After the telescopic cylinder 6 is subjected to pressure, the reset spring 9 inside will be pressed down, driving the telescopic cylinder 6 to be pressed down, causing the pedal 1 to drop, thereby increasing the fun of stepping on it. When the telescopic cylinder 6 drops, a collar 7 is provided inside the telescopic cylinder 6, which slides on the outer wall of the connecting column 8 to assist and protect the telescopic cylinder 6 in dropping. The reset spring 9 will reset the telescopic cylinder 6 later. A self-locking telescopic rod 5 is provided at the lower end of the connecting column 8. This kind of telescopic rod usually consists of a sleeve and a rod that can be telescoped relative to the sleeve, and can lock the entire stepping stone at an appropriate height according to the water level. At the same time, during maintenance, the stepping stone can be completely raised.
