Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a flashlight, and more particularly to a flashlight with a radio. Background Art
[0002] Flashlights are often used in outdoor activities. As the functions of flashlights become more and more comprehensive, existing flashlights have radio functions.
[0003] In the prior art, a Chinese patent document with publication number CN2844648Y is titled "Hand-cranked generator mobile phone rechargeable flashlight with radio." Its description [0024-0025] states that "the switch module 72 can turn the radio on and off and adjust the volume. The tuning module 76 can select the radio wave frequency in sequence."
[0004] Conventional flashlights have four buttons for adjusting the volume and frequency. However, during the assembly process, the buttons are small and difficult for employees to pick up. Employees need to align the four buttons with the mounting holes of the flashlight housing one by one and insert them into the housing. If the housing swings accidentally during the installation process, the buttons can easily fall off the housing, making installation difficult. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a flashlight with a radio. The four buttons adopt an integral design and are large in size, which firstly achieves the purpose of being easy for employees to pick up. Secondly, a sleeve positioning design of four positioning rings and positioning columns is adopted. As long as the two positioning rings and the positioning columns are sleeved and the overall positioning is completed, even if the shell falls, the mutual pulling force of the two positioning columns can reduce the probability of the button falling off as a whole, making the button installation easier.
[0006] The above technical objectives of the present invention are achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A flashlight with a radio comprises a shell, which comprises an upper shell and a lower shell. A radio is installed in the shell, the upper shell is provided with four button openings in a rectangular shape, and a button assembly for receiving the button openings is provided inside the shell; the button assembly comprises two upper buttons for adjusting volume and two lower buttons for adjusting frequency, and the four buttons, the upper buttons and the lower buttons, are connected as a whole; an upper positioning ring is provided at the connection between the two upper button openings; a lower positioning ring is provided at the connection between the two lower button openings; a middle positioning ring is provided at the connection between two adjacent upper buttons and lower buttons; a positioning column for the upper positioning ring, the lower positioning ring and the middle positioning ring to be positioned is fixed inside the upper shell.
[0008] Preferably, an upper connecting curved block is provided between the upper positioning ring and the upper button, and there are two upper connecting curved blocks; a lower connecting curved block is provided between the lower positioning ring and the lower button, and there are two lower connecting curved blocks; both the upper connecting curved block and the lower connecting curved block are provided with curved surfaces, and there are four curved surfaces, which are arranged around, and the upper shell is provided with a central column that contacts the four curved surfaces.
[0009] Preferably, an upper connecting block is provided between the upper button and the upper positioning ring; and a lower connecting block is provided between the lower button and the lower positioning ring.
[0010] Preferably, the button assembly is a rubber piece.
[0011] Preferably, a meridian layer is provided in the button assembly.
[0012] Preferably, the shell is provided with a hand-cranked generator, which includes a handle located on the lower shell.
[0013] Preferably, the housing is provided with a lamp bead, and the lamp bead is provided with a focusing lens.
[0014] In summary, the present invention has at least one of the following beneficial effects:
[0015] (1) The design of the button assembly integrates the four buttons into one, which can be installed on the shell as a whole. The overall design increases the overall size of the button, making it easier for employees to pick it up. The positioning column is used to achieve quick positioning and installation. Secondly, the positioning design of the four positioning rings and positioning columns is used. As long as the two positioning rings and positioning columns are installed, the overall positioning is completed. Even if the shell falls, the mutual pulling force of the two positioning columns can reduce the probability of the button falling off, making the button installation easier.
[0016] (2) The nesting relationship between the four positioning columns and the button assembly makes the connection between the two more stable and firm.
[0017] (3) The four points on the outside of the button assembly are positioned by the positioning posts, while the center of the button assembly has no positioning, which will make the positioning of the button and the button opening relatively poor. In this design, a center post is designed in the center of the four buttons for positioning. The center of the button assembly collides with the positioning post, so that the outer edge and center of the button assembly are better positioned during the assembly process, and the assembly of the button assembly is more accurate and convenient.
[0018] (4) The meridian layer is a grid-shaped fiber layer used to increase the overall structural strength of the button assembly and extend its service life.
[0019] (5) The hand-cranked generator is a relatively common design, mainly for the convenience of users when there is a power shortage outdoors.
[0020] (6) The focusing function of the lens can gather the light source to increase the convergence or divergence of the light. The lens that gathers light can be a convex lens. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
