Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of simulated candles, in particular to a music electronic candle. Background Art
[0002] At present, in some specific occasions, in order to reduce fire hazards, reduce carbon dioxide emissions, and facilitate use and safety, real candles are usually no longer used. Instead, electronic simulated candles that look like candles are used. Electronic simulated candles use LED lights as light sources inside. They not only have lighting functions, but can also be designed to have viewing and entertainment functions, such as electronic flash candles, music candles, and simulated kerosene lamps.
[0003] For example, the Chinese utility model patent with application number 201920297504.2 (authorization announcement number CN209262910U) once disclosed an "electronic candle", which includes a cylindrical simulated candle body, an inner cover with a hollow simulated flame, a control switch, a resistor, an LED flash and a battery. The LED flash is installed in the hollow of the simulated flame. Two connected battery barrels are fixed on the bottom plate of the cylindrical simulated candle body. The bottom of the battery barrel is fixed with a compression spring for connecting to the battery electrodes. The two compression springs are connected. It also includes a PCB. The control switch, resistor and LED flash are welded on the PCB. The bottom of the PCB is provided with contacts for connecting to the battery electrodes, which are located above the two battery barrels. The PCB is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cover.
[0004] However, the electronic candle in the above patent has a relatively simple function and does not have the function of making sounds. Although a Bluetooth speaker with a simulated candle effect has appeared on the market, you can refer to the Chinese utility model patent "A Bluetooth speaker with a simulated candle effect" with application number 202220984274.9 (authorization announcement number CN217240874U). However, the product involved in the patent is actually still a speaker, and its power amplifier speaker for making sounds is directly exposed on the side of the shell, which makes the whole product look less like a candle and cannot achieve the effect of truly simulating a real candle.
[0005] Therefore, how to provide an electronic candle that does not only have a sound-generating function but can also realistically simulate the effect of a real candle is a problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an electronic candle which has a sound-generating function and can realistically simulate the effect of a real candle in response to the above technical status quo.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: the musical electronic candle includes an outer shell, a base and a luminous simulated flame head, the outer shell is arranged on the base, the simulated flame head is exposed on the top of the outer shell, the base is provided with a circuit board, a battery for powering the simulated flame head and a master control switch for control, and the base is also provided with a Bluetooth speaker that can emit sound outward. The simulated flame head, battery, circuit board, Bluetooth speaker and master control switch together form a control circuit, and can control whether the Bluetooth speaker emits sound or not by connecting to an external device.
[0008] In order to optimize the installation structure of the Bluetooth speaker and the base, so that the Bluetooth speaker can be hidden while still being able to better emit sound to the outside, preferably, the sound-emitting part of the Bluetooth speaker is arranged downward, and a first through hole is vertically penetrated on the base for allowing the sound of the Bluetooth speaker to pass downward.
[0009] In order to better fix the Bluetooth speaker on the base, preferably, a mounting cavity for accommodating the Bluetooth speaker is formed on the base, and a buckle is extended on the cavity wall of the mounting cavity to limit the Bluetooth speaker from detaching outward.
[0010] In order to optimize the installation structure of the circuit board and the base, so that the installation layout of the circuit board can be more compact and reasonable, and the circuit board can be better built into the outer shell to shorten the length of the connecting line, preferably, the base is provided with an upward extending boss, the circuit board is vertically arranged on the boss, and the boss is also provided with a slot for keeping the circuit board in a vertical state.
[0011] In order to more stably fix the circuit board on the boss, preferably, the boss also has a support column extending upward to support the circuit board in a vertical state.
[0012] In order to save materials and better charge the electronic candle in an upright state, preferably, a groove is formed inside the boss and passes through the bottom surface of the base, and the circuit board is provided with a charging head extending downward for connecting to an external power supply, and the bottom wall of the groove is provided with a second through hole that passes through the boss for the charging head to pass through.
[0013] In order to optimize the installation structure of the battery and the base, make the battery installation layout more compact and reasonable, and enable the battery to be better built into the outer shell to shorten the length of the connecting line, preferably, the battery is vertically arranged on the base, and a baffle is also formed on the base to keep the battery in a vertical state.
[0014] In order to better hide the base in the outer shell, preferably, the outer shell is hollow and has an opening for the base to enter the interior from bottom to top, the outer peripheral surface of the base is provided with a flange protruding outward, and the bottom of the outer shell is formed with a step groove adapted to the flange, and when the base is installed to the set position, the flange is embedded in the step groove so that the base is hidden inside the outer shell.
[0015] In order to make the connection between the base and the outer shell more secure, preferably, the base extends upward with a retaining ring that can extend into the inner part of the outer shell, and the inner circumference of the outer shell is also formed with a mounting surface for adapting to the retaining ring.
[0016] In order to enable the Bluetooth speaker with the sound-emitting part facing downward to better emit sound to the outside, preferably, the bottom of the base is also provided with a plurality of protrusions protruding downward for supporting the base. When the protrusions are in a supporting state, the bottom surface of the base can be suspended to facilitate the Bluetooth speaker to emit sound outward.
[0017] Compared with the existing technology, the advantage of the present invention is that by arranging a Bluetooth speaker that can emit sound outward on the base, the electronic candle has both a lighting function and an external sound emitting function. Since the outer shell here is directly covered on the base, all components on the base including the Bluetooth speaker are hidden inside the outer shell. From the outside, only the outer shell and the simulated flame head for simulating a real candle can be seen, but the Bluetooth speaker for emitting sound outward cannot be seen. Therefore, it can truly simulate the realistic effect of a real candle, so that the entire electronic candle looks more like a real candle, thereby enhancing the user experience.

In order to facilitate operation, the gear for turning off the main power supply can be set in the middle position to conform to operating habits. Of course, we can also set more gears to meet the diverse needs of users. It should be noted here that the external device used to connect to the Bluetooth speaker 7 is not limited to a hardware device, but refers to all multimedia hardware or multimedia software that can provide sound sources. It can be played simply through the phone Bluetooth and does not require application software specifically for the Bluetooth speaker 7.
[0028] Among them, in order to optimize the installation structure of the Bluetooth speaker 7 and the base 2, the Bluetooth speaker 7 can be hidden while still being able to better sound outward, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the sound-emitting part of the Bluetooth speaker 7 is arranged downward, and a first through hole 2a is vertically penetrated on the base 2 for allowing the sound of the Bluetooth speaker 7 to pass downward. There are multiple first through holes 2a here, and the multiple first through holes 2a are arranged at intervals.
[0029] Secondly, in order to better fix the Bluetooth speaker 7 on the base 2, refer to Figures 5 to 7 As shown, in this embodiment, a mounting cavity 2 b for accommodating the Bluetooth speaker 7 is formed on the base 2 , and a buckle 2 c for limiting the Bluetooth speaker 7 from detaching outward extends from the cavity wall of the mounting cavity 2 b .
[0030] In addition, in order to optimize the installation structure of the circuit board 4 and the base 2, the installation layout of the circuit board 4 can be more compact and reasonable, and the circuit board 4 can be better built into the outer shell 1 to shorten the length of the connecting line, refer to Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the base 2 is provided with an upwardly extending boss 2d, on which the circuit board 4 is vertically mounted. The boss 2d is also provided with a retaining groove 2e for maintaining the circuit board 4 in an upright position. To more stably secure the circuit board 4 to the boss 2d, an upwardly extending support column 2f is also provided on the boss 2d to maintain the circuit board 4 in an upright position.
[0031] At the same time, in order to save materials and better charge the upright electronic candles, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, a groove 2g is formed inside the boss 2d and passes through the bottom surface of the base 2. A charging head 4a extending downward for connecting to an external power source is provided on the circuit board 4. A second through hole 2h is provided on the bottom wall of the groove 2g and passes through the boss 2d for the charging head 4a to pass through.
[0032] In addition, in order to optimize the installation structure between the battery 5 and the base 2, the installation layout of the battery 5 can be more compact and reasonable, and the battery 5 can be better built into the outer shell 1 to shorten the length of the connecting line, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the battery 5 is vertically arranged on the base 2. The base 2 is also formed with a baffle 5a for keeping the battery 5 in a vertical state. The battery 5 here is generally a rechargeable battery.
[0033] In this embodiment, in order to better hide the base 2 in the outer shell 1, refer to Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the outer shell 1 is hollow and has an opening 1a for the base 2 to enter the interior from the bottom up. The outer circumference of the base 2 is provided with a flange 21 protruding outward, and the bottom of the outer shell 1 is formed with a stepped groove 1b that adapts to the flange 21. When the base 2 is installed in the set position, the flange 21 is embedded in the stepped groove 1b, so that the base 2 is hidden inside the outer shell 1. In addition, to ensure a more secure connection between the base 2 and the outer shell 1, a retaining ring 22 is specially extended upward from the base 2 and can extend into the interior of the outer shell 1. The inner circumference of the outer shell 1 is also formed with a mounting surface 1c for adapting to the retaining ring 22.
[0034] In this embodiment, in order to make the Bluetooth speaker 7 with the sound-emitting portion facing downwards better to emit sound to the outside, and at the same time to make the base 2 better to support the electronic candle, Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the bottom of the base 2 is also provided with a plurality of protrusions 23 for supporting the base 2. When the protrusions 23 are in the supporting state, the bottom surface of the base 2 can be suspended to facilitate the Bluetooth speaker 7 to emit sound outward.
[0035] It is necessary to further explain here that in this embodiment, a Bluetooth speaker 7 that can emit sound outward is provided on the base 2, so that the electronic candle has both a lighting function and an external sound-emitting function.
