Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of optical physics, and in particular relates to a narrow space finding device capable of changing the line of sight based on the principle of light reflection. Background Art

[0002] In daily life and work, small objects often roll under furniture like sofas, cabinets, or beds. Retrieving these objects often requires crawling to the floor and shining a flashlight to locate them. Most flashlights have a single light source, a single angle of illumination, and a single function. Due to the small, low space, even lying on the floor can be difficult to locate. Furniture may even need to be moved to locate the object, which is physically demanding and inconvenient. While high-end equipment such as transillumination is available, these are expensive and unsuitable for general use. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems existing in the prior art, the utility model provides a small space finding device based on the principle of light reflection to change the line of sight, which is easy to carry, low in cost, easy to operate, and saves time and effort.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solution: a narrow space searching device that changes the line of sight based on the principle of light reflection, including a light source emitter, a spiral groove is provided on the outer surface of the light source emitter, the light source emitter is connected to a first metal shaped hose and a second metal shaped hose, the first metal shaped hose and the second metal shaped hose are wound side by side and closely together and hidden in the spiral groove, the outer end of the first metal shaped hose is hinged with a first reflector, the outer end of the second metal shaped hose is hinged with a second reflector, and the outer surface of the light source emitter is provided with a first groove for hiding the first reflector and a second groove for hiding the second reflector.

[0005] The light source emitter is a flashlight, the spiral groove is arranged on the surface of the cylindrical shell of the flashlight, the first groove and the second groove are arranged on the outer surface of the conical cover of the flashlight, the first groove is connected to the adjacent first groove through the first guide groove, and the second groove is connected to the adjacent second groove through the second guide groove.

[0006] The first reflector and / or the second reflector is a convex mirror.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, compared with the existing technology, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0008] (1) The first metal shaped hose and the second metal shaped hose serpentine tube are hidden in the spiral groove when not in use, and the first reflector and the second reflector are hidden in the first groove and the second groove respectively when not in use, so as not to occupy extra space. When in use, the metal shaped hose (serpentine tube) is used to facilitate the user to adjust any bend suitable for the outside of the narrow space, so that one reflector is used to reflect the light from the light source emitter into the narrow space, and the other reflector is used for the user to observe the conditions inside the narrow space.

[0009] (2) The reflector can be a convex mirror, which allows the reflector to reflect a larger area with a smaller area; the reflector is connected to the metal shaped hose with a hinge structure, which makes it easy to adjust the reflector to any angle; the hinge structure has a certain friction force, which ensures that the reflector maintains the adjusted angle without being affected by external forces, ensuring the stability of the reflected light.

[0010] To sum up, the utility model has a scientific principle, novel design, simple structure, easy use, and saves time and effort. By bending two metal shaping tubes and rotating two reflectors, the position of small objects dropped in a small space can be determined. When not in use, the two metal shaping tubes and rotating two reflectors are also convenient for storage and do not take up space. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0011] Figure 1 It is a structural diagram of the present utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0012] The following is a further detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0013] Figure 1 As shown, the utility model is a narrow space finding device that changes the line of sight based on the principle of light reflection, including a light source emitter 1, a spiral groove 2 is provided on the outer surface of the light source emitter 1, the light source emitter 1 is connected to a first metal shaped hose 3 and a second metal shaped hose 4, the first metal shaped hose 3 and the second metal shaped hose 4 are wound side by side and closely together and hidden in the spiral groove 2, the outer end of the first metal shaped hose 3 is hinged with a first reflector 5, the outer end of the second metal shaped hose 4 is hinged with a second reflector 6, and the outer surface of the light source emitter 1 is provided with a first groove 7 for hiding the first reflector 5 and a second groove 8 for hiding the second reflector 6.

[0014] The light source emitter 1 is a flashlight, the spiral groove 2 is arranged on the surface of the cylindrical shell 11 of the flashlight, the first groove 7 and the second groove 8 are arranged on the outer surface of the conical cover 12 of the flashlight, the first groove 7 is connected to the adjacent first groove 7 through the first guide groove 9, and the second groove 8 is connected to the adjacent second groove 8 through the second guide groove 10.

[0015] The first reflecting mirror 5 and / or the second reflecting mirror 6 are convex mirrors.

[0016] The specific use process of this utility model is as follows:

[0017] If the light source emitter 1 is used directly to see small objects dropped into a small space, the first reflector 5 and the second reflector 6 are not needed. If the light emitted by the light source emitter 1 cannot illuminate the small space, the first reflector 5 and the second reflector 6 are removed from the first groove 7 and the second groove 8 respectively, and the first metal shaped hose 3 and the second metal shaped hose 4 are pulled out from the spiral groove 2 at the same time. The bending shapes of the first metal shaped hose 3 and the second metal shaped hose 4 are adjusted respectively so that the first reflector 5 reflects the light emitted by the light source emitter 1 and the reflected light illuminates the small space. The operator adjusts the second reflector 6 and sees the situation of the light irradiating the inside of the small space through the second reflector 6. This makes it very convenient to see and locate the position of small objects in the small space.

[0018] It should be emphasized in the specification that the light source emitter 1 in the present invention is a flashlight, and only the spiral groove 2, the first groove 7, the second groove 8, the first guide groove 9 and the second guide groove 10 are provided on the flashlight shell. The other structures of the flashlight are all existing technologies, so the working principle and structure of the flashlight are not described in detail.

[0019] The above embodiments illustrate the basic principles and features of the present invention. However, the above merely illustrates preferred embodiments of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention to the embodiments described. Persons skilled in the art, inspired by this patent, may make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present invention and the scope of protection of the claims, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the patent and scope of protection of this utility model shall be subject to the appended claims.
