Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of flashlights, in particular to a flashlight with switchable light direction. Background Art

[0002] A flashlight is a handheld electronic lighting tool. A typical flashlight has a battery-powered bulb and a focusing reflector, and a handle-type housing for hand-holding. Flashlights currently on the market usually only emit light at the end of the handle, or use a light stick to emit light from the side.

[0003] However, since the end lighting component and the side lighting component are prone to light confusion inside the handle when in use, light leakage occurs on the side when the end is illuminated, and light leakage occurs on the end when the side is illuminated. Therefore, it is difficult for flashlights currently on the market to have two lighting modes at the same time. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a flashlight with switchable lighting direction, which can switch to use lights in different directions and avoid light confusion between different light sources.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a flashlight with switchable light direction, comprising a handle, a first light-transmitting plate arranged at the end of the handle, and a second light-transmitting plate arranged on the side of the handle, a first light source corresponding to the first light-transmitting plate is arranged inside the handle, a reflector is arranged circumferentially between the first light source and the first light-transmitting plate, and a light-shielding cover is provided on the outer periphery of the reflector so that the light emitted from the first light source passes through the first light-transmitting plate along the guidance of the reflector; a circuit board corresponding to the second light-transmitting plate is arranged inside the handle, and a plurality of second light sources are sequentially arranged on the side of the circuit board close to the second light-transmitting plate so that the light emitted from the second light source passes through the second light-transmitting plate.

[0006] Furthermore, the reflector and the light shield are both arranged in a conical structure.

[0007] Furthermore, a protective cover is detachably connected to the end of the handle, and the protective cover is provided with an opening, and the opening matches the first light-transmitting plate, and the first light-transmitting plate is provided with an annular groove along the circumference so that the opening is buckled in the annular groove.

[0008] Furthermore, a plurality of positioning blocks are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction on the inner side of the protective cover, and the inner sides of the positioning blocks abut against the edges of the reflector and the light shield.

[0009] Furthermore, a reinforcing plate is connected between the side of the positioning block and the protective cover.

[0010] Furthermore, a slot is provided on one end of the handle close to the protective cover along the circumferential direction, and a plurality of clamping blocks are provided on one side of the protective cover close to the handle along the circumferential direction so that the clamping blocks can be clamped in the slot.

[0011] Furthermore, a through hole is formed at one end of the handle, and the reflector and the light shield are buckled in the through hole, and the light shield and the through hole are loosely matched.

[0012] Furthermore, a positioning protrusion is provided at one end of the handle close to the protective cover, and a positioning groove matching the positioning protrusion is provided on the protective cover, so that when the protective cover is connected to the end of the handle, the positioning protrusion is engaged in the positioning groove.

[0013] The beneficial effect of the present invention is that: through the first light source and the second light source, the flashlight of this scheme can be illuminated from the end of the handle and the side of the handle respectively, ensuring that the flashlight has multiple lighting modes, and when using the lighting from the end of the handle, the light is irradiated by the first light source. Due to the setting of the reflector and the light shield, the light emitted from the first light source is uniformly affected by the reflector after contacting the reflector, and irradiated outward from the first light-transmitting plate, and a small part of the light penetrating through the reflector will be blocked by the light shield to avoid the light from the first light source from escaping from the second light-transmitting plate; similarly, when using the second light source to illuminate from the side of the handle, the light from the second light source is blocked by the light shield so that the light can only be irradiated outward from the second light-transmitting plate to avoid the light from the second light source from escaping from the first light-transmitting plate, thereby ensuring that the light between different light sources will not be confused with each other.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

Therefore, the above terms cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0023] It is to be understood that the term "one" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element may be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the elements may be multiple, and the term "one" should not be understood as a limitation on the quantity.

[0024] like Figures 1-6 The utility model provides a flashlight with switchable light direction, including a handle 1, a first light-transmitting plate 2 arranged at the end of the handle 1, and a second light-transmitting plate 3 arranged on the side of the handle 1. A first light source 4 corresponding to the first light-transmitting plate 2 is arranged inside the handle 1, and a reflector 5 is arranged circumferentially between the first light source 4 and the first light-transmitting plate 2. A light-shielding cover 6 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the reflector 5, so that the light emitted from the first light source 4 passes through the first light-transmitting plate 2 along the guidance of the reflector 5; a circuit board 7 corresponding to the second light-transmitting plate 3 is arranged inside the handle 1, and a plurality of second light sources 8 are sequentially arranged on the side of the circuit board 7 close to the second light-transmitting plate 3, so that the light emitted from the second light source 8 passes through the second light-transmitting plate 3.

[0025] Through the first light source 4 and the second light source 8, the flashlight of this scheme can illuminate from the end of the handle 1 and the side of the handle 1 respectively, ensuring that the flashlight has multiple lighting modes. When using the lighting from the end of the handle 1, light is irradiated by the first light source 4. Due to the setting of the reflector 5 and the light shield 6, the light emitted from the first light source 4 is uniformly affected by the reflector 5 after contacting the reflector 5, and irradiated outward from the first light-transmitting plate 2, and a small part of the light penetrating through the reflector 5 will be blocked by the light shield 6 to avoid the light from the first light source 4 escaping from the second light-transmitting plate 3; similarly, when using the second light source 8 to illuminate from the side of the handle 1, the light from the second light source 8 can only be irradiated outward from the second light-transmitting plate 3 through the blocking of the light shield 6 to avoid the light from the second light source 8 escaping from the first light-transmitting plate 2, thereby ensuring that the light between different light sources will not be confused with each other.

[0026] The first light source 4 and the second light source 8 are both powered by batteries and switched by switches. The first light-transmitting plate 2 and the second light-transmitting plate 3 are made of glass.

[0027] In an embodiment of the present solution, the reflector 5 is white or silver to ensure the reflective effect of the reflector 5 , and the light shield 6 is dark to ensure that the light shield 6 is opaque.

[0028] Preferably, the reflector 5 and the light shield 6 are both arranged in a conical structure.

[0029] Specifically, the conical structure can effectively guide the light emitted from the first light source 4 to ensure that the light from the first light source 4 is concentrated and emitted from the first light-transmitting plate 2 , thereby improving the lighting effect of the first light source 4 .

[0030] Preferably, a protective cover 9 is detachably connected to the end of the handle 1, and the protective cover 9 has an opening 10, and the opening 10 matches the first light-transmitting plate 2, and the first light-transmitting plate 2 has an annular groove 11 along the circumference so that the opening 10 is buckled in the annular groove 11.

[0031] Specifically, the protective cover 9 is used to protect and limit the first light-transmitting plate 2 and other structures. After the protective cover 9 is installed to the end of the handle 1, the opening 10 is clamped with the annular groove 11, so that the first light-transmitting plate 2 is stably installed in the opening 10 of the protective cover 9, ensuring that the light from the first light source 4 can be accurately irradiated outward from the opening 10 position. At the same time, the reflector 5 and the light shield 6 are axially pressed by the protective cover 9 to ensure the stability of the axial position of the reflector 5 and the light shield 6.

[0032] Preferably, a plurality of positioning blocks 12 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction on the inner side of the protective cover 9 , and the inner sides of the positioning blocks 12 abut against the edges of the reflector 5 and the sunshade 6 .

[0033] Specifically, the outer periphery of the reflector 5 and the light shield 6 is limited synchronously by a plurality of positioning blocks 12, so that under the axial limiting action of the opening 10, the axial and radial directions of the reflector 5 and the light shield 6 are limited, so as to improve the lighting stability of the first light source 4.

[0034] Preferably, a reinforcing plate 13 is connected between the side of the positioning block 12 and the protective cover 9 so that the reinforcing plate 13 improves the structural strength of the positioning block 12 to ensure that the positioning block 12 can stably support and limit the reflector 5 and the sunshade 6.

[0035] Preferably, a slot 14 is circumferentially provided at one end of the handle 1 close to the protective cover 9 , and a plurality of clamping blocks 15 are circumferentially provided at one side of the protective cover 9 close to the handle 1 , so that the clamping blocks 15 are clamped in the slot 14 .

[0036] Specifically, when the protective cover 9 is connected to the end of the handle 1, the card block 15 is aligned with the card slot 14 and buckled, so that the protective cover 9 can be stably connected to the card slot 14 through the card block 15 to ensure the stability of the protective cover 9, and further ensure that the protective cover 9 can stably limit the first light-transmitting plate 2.

[0037] In one embodiment of this solution, the protective cover 9 is provided with four / eight clamping blocks 15 along the circumferential direction to improve the connection stability of the protective cover 9 .

[0038] Preferably, a through hole 16 is opened at one end of the handle 1 , and the reflector 5 and the light shield 6 are buckled in the through hole 16 , and the light shield 6 and the through hole 16 are clearance-fitted.

[0039] Specifically, when installing the reflector 5 and the sunshade 6, the reflector 5 and the sunshade 6 are initially positioned through the position of the through hole 16, and then when installing the protective cover 9, the reflector 5 and the sunshade 6 are secondarily positioned through the positioning block 12 to ensure that the installation positions of the two are accurate.

[0040] At the same time, due to the clearance fit between the light shield 6 and the through hole 16, there is a certain amount of adjustment space after the light shield 6 is initially positioned through the through hole 16, so that the light shield 6 can be positioned more accurately through the positioning block 12 later, and the connection between the through hole 16 and the light shield 6 can be avoided to be too tight, which may cause the outside of the light shield 6 to be affected by sliding.

[0041] Preferably, a positioning protrusion 17 is provided at one end of the handle 1 close to the protective cover 9, and a positioning groove 18 matching the positioning protrusion 17 is provided on the protective cover 9, so that when the protective cover 9 is connected to the end of the handle 1, the positioning protrusion 17 is engaged in the positioning groove 18.

[0042] Specifically, when installing the protective cover 9, the positioning protrusion 17 is aligned with the positioning groove 18 and buckled, so that the circumferential installation position of the protective cover 9 is accurate. At the same time, after the installation of the protective cover 9 is completed, the circumference of the protective cover 9 can be limited by the positioning protrusion 17 to prevent the protective cover 9 from rotating on its own and causing the first light-transmitting plate 2 to be unstable.

[0043] The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned optimal implementation mode. Anyone can derive other forms of products under the inspiration of the present invention. However, no matter what changes are made in the shape or structure, any technical solution that is the same or similar to that of the present application falls within the scope of protection of the present invention.
