Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of daily necessities, and in particular relates to a light-emitting umbrella. Background Technology

[0002] Umbrellas are a common household item, but current umbrellas have limited functionality, mostly serving only as rain protection or sunshade. In recent years, umbrellas with diverse functions have emerged in the market, including some illuminated umbrellas. However, these simply install LED lights to flash or serve as warnings, lacking dynamic effects and having poor overall aesthetics, failing to meet people's needs for a richer and more colorful life. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a luminous umbrella, comprising a handle, shaft, ribs, support, and canopy. The handle contains a power supply and a chip for controlling the LEDs. LEDs are spaced apart on the ribs.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, in conjunction with Figures 1-5 The present invention will be further described below. In this description, the contents mentioned in the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0019] This utility model mainly includes an umbrella handle 1, an umbrella pole 2, fan ribs 3, an umbrella support 4, and an umbrella canopy 5. These structures are the basic features of an umbrella. The distinguishing features from ordinary umbrellas are: the umbrella handle 1 is equipped with a power supply 6 and a control chip 7, and the fan ribs 3 are equipped with a light-emitting tube 8. Figure 1 3D rendering. The umbrella pole 2, fan ribs 3, and umbrella support 4 are made of carbon fiber, which has the advantages of being lightweight and having high bending strength. The light-emitting tubes 8 on several fan ribs 3 are arranged radially from the inside out. The light-emitting tubes 8 on one fan rib 3 form a radial line, and the corresponding light-emitting tubes 8 on all fan ribs 3 form a ring. The light-emitting tubes 8 on the fan ribs 3 form several rings, as shown in the image. Figure 2 Top view plan Figure 2 The dotted circular lines on the top indicate the circumferential direction. Several radial and several circumferential light-emitting tubes 8 form a circular array, which can be regarded as a screen. By controlling the lighting of different light-emitting tubes on the array, the set lighting effect can be obtained.

[0020] The LEDs 8 are grouped in sets of three, numbered ①, ②, and ③. Each LED 8 is controlled independently, and the lighting sequence is ①→②→③. The display effect is a movement from ① to ③. If multiple groups of LEDs 8 are arranged in the order of ①, ②, and ③, a flowing light effect from ① to ③ will be formed. To better illustrate the specific arrangement of the circular array, the LEDs 8 arranged in a ring along the fan ribs 3 are numbered ①, ②, and ③ in a cycle from the center of the umbrella outwards. The fan ribs 3 are arranged in a cycle of A, B, and C. The LEDs 8 are arranged in a ring along the fan ribs 3, with three rings forming a group. The number of rings is a multiple of three. The ring numbers of the LEDs 8 on the rings are ①, ②, ③, ①, ②, ③… ①, ②, ③. The LEDs 8 on one fan rib 3 form a column (radial), with three columns forming a group. The number of fan ribs 3 is a multiple of three. The LEDs 8 on the columns are numbered A, B, C, A, B, C… A, B, C. The ring-arranged LEDs 8 form a light-emitting matrix, see… Figure 2 . Figure 2 The number of fan ribs 3 and the number of rings of LEDs 8 are 15. The control chip 7 controls the LEDs 8 on the light-emitting matrix to create different lighting effects. The LEDs 8 on the rings light up one ring at a time in the order of ①, ②, ③, forming a ring-shaped flowing light effect from the center of the umbrella surface 5 outwards; the LEDs 8 on the columns light up one column at a time in the order of A, B, C, forming a rotating flowing light effect from A to C. If the control order is cyclical according to column A ① → column B ② → column C ③, a spiral rotating effect can be produced. The LEDs 8 use SMD 0603 dual-color LEDs. The red LED emits red light when powered, the green LED emits green light when powered, and the red and green LEDs emit yellow light when powered simultaneously.

[0021] A handle light 10 is provided on the lower side of the umbrella handle 1. When the umbrella is open, turning on the lower light can illuminate the road. A top light 11 is provided at the top of the umbrella pole 2. When not using the umbrella, turning on the top light can be used as a flashlight. Figure 3 .

[0022] Five buttons are located on the umbrella handle 1. Button 1 (12) is the power switch; pressing and holding for 2 seconds turns it on or off. Button 2 (13) is the program switch; pressing it sequentially changes the lighting effect. Button 3 (14) is the color switch; pressing it sequentially controls the color of the light-emitting tube 8. Button 4 (15) is the umbrella handle lighting switch, and button 5 (16) is the umbrella top lighting switch. See [link / details]. Figure 4 .

[0023] The luminous effect and color changes are controlled by the mode set by the control chip 7. The umbrella surface 5 is equipped with a matrix chip 9 that connects to the light-emitting diode matrix. The matrix chip 9 is connected to the light-emitting diodes 8 of each light-emitting matrix via an FPC cable 18. The FPC cable 18 is a flexible and foldable connecting cable, commonly known as a flexible circuit board. The matrix chip 9 is encapsulated in a waterproof sealant and installed on the inside of the umbrella surface 5. The matrix chip 9 is very small and is not affected when the umbrella is folded. The control chip 7 is located inside the umbrella handle 1 and is connected to the matrix chip 9 via a data cable. See [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 The data cable has four wires: positive power (VCC), ground (GND), positive data (D+), and negative data (D-).

[0024] The power supply 6 uses a 14500 lithium battery, with dimensions identical to a standard AA battery. A charging port 17 is located at the bottom of the umbrella handle 1 for charging the lithium battery. Figure 4 Large detail of the umbrella handle. All circuit boards and components are encapsulated with hot glue to prevent water seepage and damage. The upper part of the umbrella handle 1 houses the umbrella opening button 19, which is separated from the lower component compartment to prevent rainwater from flowing down the umbrella shaft 2 into the component compartment. See... Figure 4 The section cut does not reach the umbrella opening button 19; therefore, dashed lines are used to indicate their relative positions. All buttons and lights are waterproof and sealed to prevent rainwater from entering the interior of the umbrella handle 1.

[0025] The SMD 0603 dual-color LED is a surface-mount component with a very small size, measuring 1.6mm x 0.8mm and 0.8mm in thickness. The LED 8 is embedded in the top surface of the fan rib 3, with its top surface flush with the top surface of the fan rib 3. The FPC cable 18 connecting the LED 8 is also embedded within the fan rib 3 and its surface is encapsulated with sealant. See [link to documentation]. Figure 5 The light-emitting tube 8 is embedded in the fan rib 3, located below the umbrella surface 5. Figure 5The umbrella surface 5 is not shown. The light-emitting tube 8 emits light through the umbrella surface 5, making the light softer and less dazzling. If the umbrella surface 5 is made of dark fabric with low light transmittance, a light-colored fabric can be set at the position where the umbrella surface 5 is sewn to the fan rib 3. This can effectively transmit light. Moreover, the light-colored radial ribs at the position of the fan rib 3 on the umbrella surface 5 are like a shooting star streaking across a deep night sky, instantly making the whole design "come alive" and more aesthetically pleasing.

[0026] The specification and drawings of this application are merely one specific embodiment and are not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other modifications based on the teachings of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of this application, and all such modifications are within the scope of protection of this application.
