[0002] A Christmas tree is a type of decorative tree, typically used during specific holidays. A Christmas tree usually consists of a base and trunk, branches, and decorations. Branches are usually fixed to the trunk, and lights, pine needles, etc., are added to the branches to enhance the tree's visual appeal. For example, patent application number CN202311131506.1, entitled "An Intelligent Christmas Tree with Lights Controlled Based on Its Own Status," discloses an intelligent Christmas tree that can control the lighting of its lights based on its own status. It can control the lighting of the first string of lights based on the angle between the first branch and the first trunk, the second string of lights based on the angle between the second branch and the second trunk, and the third string of lights based on the angle between the third branch and the third trunk. This eliminates the need for manual control of the lights, demonstrating high intelligence and flexibility.
[0003] However, the aforementioned technical solution only allows the branches to be fixedly attached to the trunk, preventing them from swinging as needed and resulting in poor aesthetics. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a newer technical design that is simple in structure and allows the branches to swing, thereby solving the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0036] Furthermore, in this application, the technical features described in an open-ended manner include both closed technical solutions composed of the listed features and open technical solutions that include the listed features.
[0037] To further understand the utility model content, features, and effects of this application, the following embodiments are provided, and detailed descriptions are given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
[0038] like Figure 1-7As shown, a Christmas tree support with swinging branches includes a trunk 1, branch components 2, a transmission component 3, and a motor 4. The trunk 1 is a hollow structure, and the transmission component 3 is housed inside the trunk 1. The branch components 2 and trunk 1 are rotatably connected, and the branch components 2 and transmission component 3 are also connected. The branch components 2 swing up and down via the transmission component 3. The motor 4 is connected to the transmission component 3 and is located at the bottom of the trunk 1. The forward or reverse rotation of the motor drives the transmission component to rotate, thereby causing the branch components to swing up and down, effectively solving the problem of branches not being able to swing as needed, resulting in poor aesthetics. Of course, the above structure is not limited to this; other structures that achieve the same function can be used.
[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 7 The tree branch assembly 2 shown includes a tree branch portion 21, a connecting portion 22, and a gear portion 23. The connecting portion 22 is fixedly connected to the tree branch portion 21 or integrally formed. The gear portion 23 is fixedly connected to the tree branch portion 21 via the connecting portion 22. The tree branch portion 21 is connected to the trunk 1 via the connecting portion 22. The gear portion 23 is connected to the transmission assembly 3. In this embodiment, this configuration allows the tree branch assembly to rotate up and down within a certain angle, and the gear portion provides excellent self-locking performance. Of course, the above structure is not limited to this and can be other structures that enable up and down rotation.
[0040] Specifically, such as Figure 2-3 As shown, the transmission assembly 3 includes a transmission rod 31, a threaded sleeve 32, a transmission bearing 33, and a transmission sleeve 34. The threaded sleeve 32 is connected to the transmission rod 31, the transmission bearing 33 is fixedly connected to the threaded sleeve 32, the transmission sleeve 34 is fixedly connected to the transmission bearing 33, and the transmission rod 31 is fixedly connected to the motor 4. The transmission assembly 3 also includes a transmission connection part 35, which includes a helical protrusion 351 and a helical groove 352. The helical protrusion 351 and the helical groove 352 are matched. The helical protrusion 351 is disposed on the transmission rod 31 or the threaded sleeve 32, and the helical groove 352 is disposed on the transmission rod 31 or the threaded sleeve 32. In this embodiment, through this arrangement, the cooperation of the threaded protrusion and the threaded groove allows the threaded sleeve and the transmission sleeve to rise and fall when the transmission rod starts to rotate forward or reverse. Of course, the above structure is not limited to this and can be other structures that perform the function of rising or falling.
[0041] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the transmission sleeve 34 is provided with a spur tooth portion 341 that matches the gear portion 23. The transmission sleeve 34 is connected to the gear portion 23 through the meshing of the spur tooth portion 341. In this embodiment, with this arrangement, when the threaded sleeve and the transmission sleeve rise and fall, the branch portion will rotate up and down accordingly. Because of the meshing connection between the spur tooth portion and the gear portion, and its excellent self-locking performance, the branch portion can be fixed at a certain angle. Of course, the above structure is not limited to this; other structures that achieve the function of up and down rotation can also be used.
[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, a base assembly 5 for support is provided at the bottom of the branch 1, and the base assembly 5 is fixedly connected to the branch 1. In this embodiment, this arrangement allows the Christmas tree stand to be placed stably. Of course, the above structure is not limited to this and can be other structures that provide stable placement.
[0043] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the base assembly 5 includes a support portion 51 and a base bearing 52. The base bearing 52 is disposed within the support portion 51 and is fixedly connected to the transmission rod 31. The support portion 51 is fixedly connected to the branch 1. In this embodiment, this arrangement allows the Christmas tree support to be placed stably while enabling the transmission rod to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise within the branch. Of course, the above structure is not limited to this and can be other structures that perform the same function.
[0044] Specifically, the transmission rod 31 is provided with a tightening part 6, and the tightening parts 6 are fixedly connected. In this embodiment, with this setting, when the motor is unavailable, the motor can be removed and the transmission rod can be manually rotated through the tightening part to adjust the angle of the branch. Of course, the above structure is not limited to this and can be other structures that have the same function.
[0045] Working principle: When in use, the motor is connected to an external power source and begins to rotate forward or reverse, driving the transmission rod to rotate forward or reverse. The threaded sleeve on the transmission rod rises or falls due to the engagement of the threaded protrusions and grooves, which in turn drives the transmission sleeve to rise or fall. The tree branch is connected to the gear section and the spur teeth on the transmission sleeve through meshing, thereby enabling the tree branch to swing up and down, adding to the ornamental value of the Christmas tree stand. When the motor stops rotating, the tree branch will be fixed at a certain angle due to the self-locking property between the gear section and the spur teeth.
[0046] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0047] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
