Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of luminous decorative products, in particular to a luminous electronic badge. Background Art
[0002] The light source of the luminous decorative parts used for products such as shoes, clothing, and bags is usually directly illuminated by lamp beads or has lighting effects such as frequency and color. The lighting effect of a few or multiple lamp beads is usually to illuminate the area within the range of the lamp bead radiation, and there is relatively no graphic outline lighting effect. It is mostly used in large, medium and small light boxes or small lamps. Some can illuminate along the outline of the graphic by arranging lamp bead strings to achieve lighting along the outline, but this method is almost impossible to apply to small luminous decorative parts, such as badge decorations used on some shoes, clothing, and bags. Due to the large size limitations, it is impossible to arrange multiple lamp beads to achieve the outline lighting effect, and the lighting effect of a single lamp bead is very simple and the decorative effect is poor.
[0003] In response to the above-mentioned contour lighting effect, some existing products use light-guiding optical fibers to create graphic contours or patterns, which have a contour lighting effect that is quite different from that illuminated by lamp beads. However, due to the characteristics of the light-guiding wiring requirements of light-guiding optical fibers, the optical fibers cannot be bent, extended, or cut at will. In addition, there are also problems such as the volume of some existing light source modules (circuit boards, light-guiding lamp bundle structures, control switches, etc.), which still cannot be applied to some small luminous decorative parts (such as badges). In view of this, the inventors of this case have made structural improvements to small luminous decorative parts with light-guiding optical fibers as light sources, which led to the creation of this case. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a light-guiding optical fiber electronic badge, the layout structure of which is conducive to the light guidance of small graphics, and the structural setting between it and the light source control module is more compact, which can reduce the installation and placement space, and can realize the setting and application of small electronic badges with light-guiding optical fiber as the light source.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: a light-guiding fiber optic electronic badge, comprising a badge body and a light source control module, wherein the badge body comprises a front panel and a back panel connected together and forming an installation space therebetween, a light-guiding fiber optic being connected to the outer side of the front panel, and a threading hole for an end section of the light-guiding fiber optic to pass through the installation space is formed on the front panel, and the light source control module is disposed in the installation space;
[0006] The light source control module includes a circuit board, a button battery, a light-emitting element and a control switch. The circuit board is divided into adjacent back connecting plate area and edge connecting plate area, and one side of the circuit board is an integrated layout surface and the other side is a back side. The integrated layout surface is provided with a circuit structure including a battery connection terminal, a control connection terminal and a light source connection terminal. The button battery is installed by a button battery clip, and the button battery clip is correspondingly installed on the back side of the back connecting plate area and its pins pass through the circuit board and are connected to the battery connection terminal. The edge connecting plate area has a protrusion protruding from the side line of the back connecting plate area, and the bare area corresponding to the side line of the back connecting plate area and the protrusion is the light guide beam area. The light source connection end is arranged on the edge of the protrusion facing the light guide beam area. The light-emitting element corresponds to the light guide beam area and its pin is connected to the light source connection end. The end section of the light guide optical fiber is pulled to the light guide beam area and the end is docked on the light-emitting element through a tightening sleeve. The pin of the control switch is connected to the control connection end.
[0007] The edge connection area also has a second protrusion protruding from the other side edge of the back connection area. The bare area corresponding to the other side edge of the back connection area and the second protrusion is the controller installation area. The control connection end is arranged on the edge of the second protrusion facing the controller installation area, and the control switch corresponds to the controller installation area.
[0008] The control switch is a spring vibration switch or a level sensing switch.
[0009] The edges of the front sheet and the back sheet are connected together as a connecting edge, and the threading holes are arranged on the inner side of the connecting edge.
[0010] A gasket is provided between the front sheet and the back sheet, and an embedding groove for corresponding embedding of the light source control module is opened on the gasket to form the installation space.
[0011] The circuit board is divided into a back connection section and an edge connection section with two adjacent side edges in a square shape, and the positive corners of the circuit board are chamfered or rounded.
[0012] The circuit structure is provided with a light emitting control unit and / or a wireless signal connection unit.
[0013] The edge connection section is composed of a plurality of adjacent sections, each of which forms a light guide beam section.
[0014] The back sheet is provided with an installation opening which can be opened to the installation space.

The light source control module of the above structure has a circuit board structure that can reduce the area of the back connection plate to close to the edge of the button battery outline, and reserve a position for connecting with the pin of the light-emitting component through the edge connection plate. This position can be reduced to the width required for connecting with the pin of the light-emitting component, and the light-guiding light bundle area formed corresponding to this position provides a space for the end section of the light-guiding optical fiber to be pulled in and connected to the light-emitting component through a tightening sleeve. This space can provide a straight docking space with a minimum length of about 1CM, which not only allows the docking structure to be set sideways to reduce the occupied space, and the overall area can be reduced to about 3*3CM, and the thickness is thin, but also ensures the stability of the docking and tightening connection, and also allows the end section of the light-guiding optical fiber to remain straight without excessive bending, avoiding easy damage and affecting the light transmission effect. It is particularly suitable for the light source control module setting application of small electronic badges, with a perfect structure, small installation space and thin thickness. In summary, the above-mentioned purpose of the utility model is achieved. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0028] In order to further explain the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be described in detail below through specific embodiments.
[0029] The present embodiment discloses a light-guiding fiber optic electronic badge that can be used as a chest badge or a decorative badge on clothing, shoes, bags, etc. It can also be used for some text or letter light signs, which can be combined to form words and sentences to show the meaning of the light sign. Whether in a well-lit environment or a dim environment, the lighting effect of the product of the utility model is different from that of other light box-type lights or illumination types. The specific details are as follows: Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 The structural setting and position connection relationship of a light-guiding fiber optic electronic badge of the present invention are described in detail. The badge mainly includes a badge body 1 and a light source control module 2.
[0030] As shown in the figure, the badge body 1 includes a front piece 11 and a back piece 12 which are connected together and form an installation space therebetween. The front piece 11 is the main surface reflecting the appearance of the badge. The surface can be flat as shown in the figure, or it can be a three-dimensional shaped surface with a three-dimensional pattern effect or other layered structure. The main difference between the present invention and other light box-type lighting or illuminating light effects is that the luminous light effect on the product of the present invention is displayed through a light-guiding optical fiber 3. As shown in the figure, the outer side surface of the front piece 11 is coiled and connected with a light-guiding optical fiber 3. Here, the light-guiding optical fiber 3 can be coiled by an embroidery machine according to the pattern set for the badge, the designed light effect, etc. and fixed by embroidery thread. The structure is stable and the production is more convenient and efficient. The embroidery thread can use transparent fish silk thread to avoid affecting the light guiding display of the light-guiding optical fiber 3. In addition, according to the light-guiding characteristics of the light-guiding optical fiber 3, it should be noted that when the light-guiding optical fiber 3 is coiled with bends and turns, the coiling length should be set to a length less than the length of the light-guiding optical fiber 3 attenuation. The rest of the light-guiding optical fiber 3 is divided into different light-guiding optical fibers 3 in this way to continue the coiling. In addition, it is advisable to cut it at the position with a smaller bending angle to avoid affecting the light transmission at the position with a smaller bending angle. Therefore, the light-guiding optical fiber 3 cannot usually be coiled for a long length with bends and turns to form a large-area light guide for application.
[0031] In existing luminous products using optical fiber, the ends of the optical fiber are extended from the edge of the product to guide light in a bundle. This structure makes the product feel cumbersome and makes it difficult to process the edge of the product. In order to avoid this problem, the badge product of the present invention further provides a threading hole 111 on the front sheet 11 for the end section 31 of the optical fiber 3 to penetrate into the installation space. The position of the threading hole 111 should be set in combination with the winding pattern so as not to affect the appearance effect. It can also be used as described above with different light guide fibers. 3 to continue the winding separation and continuation, at the breaking point where the bending turning angle is small and needs to be broken, etc., through this structural arrangement, the end section 31 of the light-guiding optical fiber 3 does not need to extend from the edge of the badge, but directly passes through the wire-threading hole 111 into the installation space, so that there is no limitation for the edge connection treatment (such as lock edge) of some of the edges of the front sheet 11 and the back sheet 12 that are connected together, because the wire-threading hole 111 is opened on the inner side of the connecting edge, and the light-guiding optical fiber 3 is not easily damaged by the edge connection treatment of the connecting edge.
[0032] The back sheet 12 primarily functions to protect the light source control module 2, enhance the product's appearance, and facilitate the use and wearing of the badge. To facilitate installation, setup, and subsequent maintenance or replacement of the light source control module 2, the back sheet 12 is provided with an opening 121 that opens to the installation space. This opening 121 preferably covers the light source control module 2, preventing it from leaking or falling out. As shown in the figure, a linear opening is shown. Furthermore, the aforementioned badge's use and wearing functionality can be achieved through a variety of structural arrangements, including some commonly used attachment mechanisms such as a pin, Velcro, magnetic, pin buckle, and / or adhesive.
[0033] The above content mainly describes the structural setting of the chapter body 1. Next, the light source control module 2 is described. As shown in the figure, when it is installed and used, it is set in the installation space between the front piece 11 and the back piece 12 of the chapter body 1. After the chapter body 1 is produced, it can be embedded in the installation setting from the installation port 121.
[0034] The structure of the light source control module 2 includes a circuit board 21 as a basic carrier, a button battery 22 for providing energy, a light-emitting component 23 as a light source, and a control switch 24 for controlling the lighting operation. In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose and effect of the utility model, the shape of the circuit board 21 and the circuit layout structure on the circuit board 21 are one of the important structures for achieving the purpose and effect. The improved structure of the utility model is as follows: the circuit board 21 is divided into adjacent back connecting piece areas 211 and edge connecting piece areas 212. As shown in the figure, the circuit board 21 is divided into two square-shaped side adjacent back connecting piece areas 211 and edge connecting piece areas 212. The positive corners of the circuit board 21 can be chamfered or rounded. In addition, one side of the circuit board 21 is an integrated layout surface 213 (one side of the printed circuit structure), and the other side is a back side 214. The integrated layout surface 213 is provided with a circuit structure including a battery connection terminal 215, a control connection terminal 216 and a light source connection terminal 217. For products designed to be controlled via Bluetooth connection or wireless remote control and to be designed to control more different lighting effects, the circuit structure may also include a light control unit and / or a wireless signal connection unit light, etc. The button battery 22 is installed and set through a button battery clip 218 (existing device). The button battery clip 218 is correspondingly installed on the back side 214 of the back connecting plate area 211 and its pins pass through the circuit board 21 and are connected to the battery connection terminal 216. Since the area required for the conventional setting of the circuit structure of the product of the present invention is not large, usually the part of the back connecting plate area 211 corresponding to the button battery 22 and the edge connecting plate area 212 are sufficient for layout. The part of the back connecting plate area 211 corresponding to the button battery 22 can be retracted close to the edge of the circuit structure layout, thereby greatly reducing the area of the circuit board.
[0035] In addition, the edge connecting section 212 of the present invention has a protrusion 2121 protruding from the side line of the back connecting section 211, and the bare area corresponding to the side line of the back connecting section 211 and the protrusion 2121 is the light guide beam section 219, and the light source connection end 217 is set on the edge of the protrusion 2121 facing the light guide beam section 219, and the light-emitting component 23 corresponds to the light guide beam section 219 and the pin is connected to the light source connection end 217. With this structural arrangement, the edge connecting section 212 reserves a position for connecting to the pin of the light-emitting component 23, and this position can be reduced to the width required for connecting to the pin of the light-emitting component 23, thereby reducing the area, and the light guide formed corresponding to this position The bundle area 219 provides a space for the end section 31 of the light-guiding optical fiber 3 to be pulled in and docked with the light-emitting component 23 through the tightening sleeve 4, that is, the end section 31 of the light-guiding light 3 passing through the wire threading hole 111 of the front surface 11 is pulled to the corresponding light-guiding light bundle area 219 and the end is docked on the light-emitting component 23 through the tightening sleeve 4. The tightening sleeve 4 is a conventional heat shrink sleeve. During operation, one end of the heat shrink sleeve is put on the light-emitting component 23, and the end face of the end section 31 of the light-guiding light 3 is smoothed and inserted from the other end of the heat shrink sleeve. Then, a hot air gun is used to blow hot air at the heat shrink sleeve, and the heat shrink sleeve immediately shrinks and tightens to complete the docking. When the light-emitting component 23 emits light, the light is transmitted from the flat end face of the end section 31.
[0036] The pins of the control switch 24 are connected to the control connection terminal 216. Depending on the selection of the control switch 24, it can be located in various locations, such as directly on the surface of the circuit board. Alternatively, as shown in the figure, the control switch 24 can be a spring vibration switch or a level sensing switch. The edge connection section 212 also has a second protrusion 2122 protruding from the other side of the back connection section 211. The bare area on the other side of the back connection section 211 corresponding to the second protrusion 2122 is the controller mounting area 210. The control connection terminal 216 is located on the edge of the second protrusion 2122 facing the controller mounting area 210. The control switch 24 corresponds to the controller mounting area 210. The effect of this structural arrangement is similar to that of the protrusion 2121, thereby further achieving the above-mentioned purpose and effect of the utility model. The details will not be repeated here. In addition, for badges with larger areas and larger installation space, the edge connection section 212 can be composed of multiple adjacent pieces, each of which can form a structure such as a light guide beam area 219.
[0037] In addition, according to the product design, in order to make the overall thickness of the badge product of the present invention uniform, the appearance full, and the product texture improved, a gasket 13 may be provided between the front piece 11 and the back piece 12 in this embodiment. The gasket 13 is provided with an embedding groove 131 for the light source control module 3 to be embedded correspondingly to form the installation space. The gasket 13 can be made of sponge sheet or foam sheet, and can be directly attached to the inner side of the front piece 11 or the back piece 12, or can be connected together with the connecting edge of the above-mentioned front piece 11 and the back piece 12. The gasket 13 can also play a role in protecting the light source control module 3.
[0038] The above embodiments and drawings do not limit the product form and style of the present invention. Any appropriate changes or modifications made by ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field should be deemed to be within the patent scope of the present invention.
