Detailed Implementation
[0023] The present invention will be further described below through specific embodiments.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the ceramic mug for holding photos according to this utility model includes a ceramic mug body 1, a transparent photo frame 2, a light-emitting component 3, and an annular bottom cover 4. The bottom of the outer circumference of the ceramic mug body 1 is provided with an annular bottom groove 11 penetrating its bottom end. On the outer circumference of the ceramic mug body 1, above the annular bottom groove 11, there is an arc-shaped mounting groove 12 communicating with the annular bottom groove 11. There are multiple arc-shaped mounting grooves 12, which are evenly spaced along the circumference of the ceramic mug body 1. The transparent photo frame 2 and the light-emitting component 3 are both adapted to the arc-shaped mounting grooves 12 and are sequentially and detachably snapped into and assembled in the arc-shaped mounting grooves 12 from top to bottom. The transparent photo frame 2 has an upward-opening placement cavity 21 for holding photos. The annular bottom cover 4 is detachably installed in the annular bottom groove 11 of the ceramic mug body 1 and is used to fix the light-emitting component 3 and the transparent photo frame 2.
[0025] The transparent frame 2 allows the ceramic mug to also function as a photo frame, further enhancing its practicality. The light-emitting component 3 allows light to be transmitted upwards from the bottom of the transparent frame 2, improving the overall aesthetic appeal. When using the ceramic mug, to replace or place a new photo, the annular bottom cover 4 can be removed from the bottom of the ceramic mug body 1. Then, the light-emitting component 3 and the transparent frame 2 can be removed sequentially from the arc-shaped mounting groove 12 of the ceramic mug body 1. At this point, a new photo can be placed in the placement cavity 21 of the transparent frame 2. After placing a photo inside, the transparent photo frame 2 and the light-emitting component 3 are then re-snap and assembled into the arc-shaped mounting groove 12 of the ceramic cup body 1. Finally, the annular bottom cover 4 is re-installed on the bottom of the ceramic cup body 1 to further secure the light-emitting component 3 and the transparent photo frame 2. As time goes by, people can easily change the photos placed inside the ceramic mug and gradually add new photos. This makes it more meaningful for commemorating each moment in the relationship between friends or lovers. Over time, it will not become monotonous and can better meet people's needs.
[0026] Preferably, the transparent photo frame 2 can be made of transparent acrylic material. The transparent photo frame 2 is arc-shaped. In addition, a notch 23 is provided at the top edge of the back of the transparent photo frame 2 to facilitate the removal and placement of the photo in the placement cavity 21 of the transparent photo frame 2.
[0027] Preferably, the number of the arc-shaped mounting slots 12 is 4-8, and correspondingly, the number of the transparent photo frame 2 and the light-emitting component 3 is also 4-8, which is convenient for placing 4-8 photos.
[0028] Accordingly, the light-emitting component 3 includes an arc-shaped light panel 31, a light strip 32, a power supply 33, a first power switch 34, and a second power switch 35. The light strip 32 is electrically connected to the power supply 33 through the first power switch 34 and the second power switch 35. The power supply 33 is located within the arc-shaped light panel 31. The upper surface of the arc-shaped light panel 31 has an arc-shaped light groove. The light strip 32 is adapted to and installed within the arc-shaped light groove. The first power switch 34 is located between the arc-shaped light panel 31 and the transparent photo frame 2. The second power switch 35 is located at the top of the transparent photo frame 2. Inside the placement cavity 21, when the arc-shaped light panel 31 and the transparent photo frame 2 are abutted and assembled in the arc-shaped mounting groove 12, the first power switch 34 can be powered. When the photo is placed in the placement cavity 21 of the transparent photo frame 2, the second power switch 35 can be powered. Preferably, the power source 33 is a button battery. As time goes by, when more and more photos are placed on the ceramic mug, the corresponding light strips 32 on the ceramic mug will gradually light up, thereby creating a certain degree of interaction between the ceramic mug and the user, and adding a certain degree of fun.
[0029] In addition, in other embodiments, the light-emitting component 3 further includes a control switch. The light strip 32 is electrically connected to the power supply 33 through the control switch, the first power-on switch 34 and the second power-on switch 35. The control switch is located on the arc-shaped light panel 31. When both the first power-on switch 34 and the second power-on switch 35 are in the power-on state, the light strip 32 can be controlled to turn on or off through the control switch.
[0030] The first power switch 34 includes a power connection post 341 and a power connection hole 342. The power connection posts 341 are fixedly provided on the left and right sides of the bottom surface of the transparent photo frame 2, and the power connection holes 342 are fixedly provided on the left and right sides of the top surface of the arc-shaped lamp panel 31. The two power connection posts 341 and the two power connection holes 342 are arranged one-to-one. The power connection posts 341 are detachably inserted into the power connection holes 342 and electrically connected to the power connection holes 342. Correspondingly, both power connection posts 341 are electrically connected to the second power switch 35 via wires. The connection is as follows: one of the power connection holes 342 is electrically connected directly to the power supply 33, and the other power connection hole 342 is electrically connected to the power supply 33 via a wire and the light strip 32. Both the power connection post 341 and the power connection hole 342 can be made of conductive metal. By adopting this quick-connect structure, the curved light panel 31 and the transparent frame 2 can be easily separated. When the curved light panel 31 and the transparent frame 2 are assembled, the first power switch 34 can be powered.
[0031] The second power switch 35 includes a flexible contact piece 351 and a fixed contact block 352. Both the flexible contact piece 351 and the fixed contact block 352 are fixedly disposed on the rear side of the placement cavity 21 of the transparent photo frame 2. One end of the flexible contact piece 351 is a fixed end, and the other end is a free end. The fixed end and the free end of the flexible contact piece 351 are arranged sequentially, one above the other. A contact contact 353 is fixedly disposed on the surface of the free end of the flexible contact piece 351. Correspondingly, two contact posts 341 are electrically connected to the flexible contact piece 351 and the fixed contact block 352 respectively via wires. When the photo is placed in the placement cavity 21, the free end of the flexible contact piece 351 can be pressed down, causing the contact contact 353 to elastically abut against the fixed contact block 352 to achieve an electrical connection. Accordingly, the flexible contact piece 351... Both the fixed grounding block 352 and the fixed grounding block 352 are made of conductive metal. By using the elastically deformable elastic grounding piece 351, when no photo is placed in the placement cavity 21 of the transparent photo frame 2, the elastic grounding piece 351 can remain disconnected from the fixed grounding block 352 due to its own elasticity, so that the second grounding switch 35 is in a non-energized state. Even if the first grounding switch 34 is in an energized state, the light strip 32 will not light up. However, when a photo is placed in the placement cavity 21 of the transparent photo frame 2, the photo can squeeze the elastic grounding piece 351, thereby causing the elastic grounding piece 351 to elastically deform and maintain elastic contact with the fixed grounding block 352, and thus achieve energization. Therefore, when the first grounding switch 34 is also in an energized state, the light strip 32 will light up.
[0032] Correspondingly, vertically arranged strip mounting blocks 5 are fixedly provided on the inner surfaces of both sides of the arc-shaped mounting groove 12. A strip slot 51 penetrating both ends is provided on one side surface of the strip mounting block 5. A first strip block 22 adapted to the strip slot 51 is fixedly provided on both sides of the transparent photo frame 2. The first strip block 22 can be detachably locked in the strip slot 51 of the corresponding side of the strip mounting block 5. A second strip block 311 adapted to the strip slot 51 is fixedly provided on both sides of the arc-shaped light panel 31. The second strip block 311 can be detachably locked in the strip slot 51 of the corresponding side of the strip mounting block 5. In this way, it is convenient to realize the locking of the transparent photo frame 2 and the arc-shaped light panel 31 in the arc-shaped mounting groove 12, so as to facilitate the quick assembly and disassembly of the transparent photo frame 2 and the arc-shaped light panel 31 and the ceramic cup body 1.
[0033] Correspondingly, a sealing gasket 6 is fixedly provided on the arc-shaped top surface of the arc-shaped mounting groove 12 for the ceramic cup body 1. Preferably, the sealing gasket 6 is made of rubber or silicone. When the transparent photo frame 2 is assembled in the arc-shaped mounting groove 12, the sealing gasket 6 can be squeezed to improve the sealing performance between the transparent photo frame 2 and the ceramic cup body 1. In this way, when cleaning the ceramic mug, water is less likely to seep into the placement cavity 21 of the transparent photo frame 2 from the gap between the transparent photo frame 2 and the ceramic cup body 1. In addition, a sealing strip is fixedly provided on the top surface of the arc-shaped light panel 31 at the four perimeter of the arc-shaped light groove. The sealing strip is made of... Made of rubber or silicone, the curved light panel 31 is assembled into the curved mounting groove 12, which compresses the sealing strip to further improve the sealing between the curved light panel 31 and the transparent photo frame 2. In addition, the ceramic cup body 1 is fixedly provided with an elastic pad 7 on the curved side of the curved mounting groove 12. Preferably, the elastic pad 7 is made of rubber or silicone. When the transparent photo frame 2 and the curved light panel 31 are assembled into the curved mounting groove 12, the elastic pad 7 can be compressed, thereby further ensuring the stability of the engagement between the transparent photo frame 2, the curved light panel 31 and the strip mounting block 5.
[0034] An internal threaded ring 81 is fixedly sleeved on the inner surface of the annular bottom cover 4, and an external threaded ring 82 is fixedly sleeved at the annular bottom groove 11 of the ceramic cup body 1. Both the internal threaded ring 81 and the external threaded ring 82 are metal rings to overcome the difficulty of machining threads on the ceramic cup body 1. The annular bottom cover 4 is threadedly connected to the external threaded ring 82 of the ceramic cup body 1 through the internal threaded ring 81. This allows for a detachable connection between the annular bottom cover 4 and the ceramic cup body 1 by rotating the annular bottom cover 4. When it is necessary to remove the transparent photo frame 2 and insert a photo, the annular bottom cover 4 can be unscrewed from the bottom of the ceramic cup body 1 to facilitate the removal or insertion of the transparent photo frame 2 and the light-emitting component 3 from the arc-shaped mounting groove 12.
[0035] A handle 9 is fixedly provided on the top of the outer peripheral surface of the ceramic cup body 1. The handle 9 is in the shape of an inverted L. The thickness of the handle 9 gradually increases from one end of the handle 9 to the other end connected to the ceramic cup body 1.
[0036] The above are only some specific embodiments of this utility model, but the design concept of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any non-substantial modifications made to this utility model using this concept shall be considered as an infringement of the protection scope of this utility model.
