This should be understood by those skilled in the art to which the embodiments of this utility model pertain.

[0048] Techniques, methods, and apparatus known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and apparatus should be considered part of the specification. In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0049] This invention provides a light-emitting module 100 suitable for badminton shuttlecocks. The light-emitting module 100 includes light-emitting LED beads 210 and a battery 220. The battery 220 includes a first electrode and a second electrode. The first electrode and the second electrode have opposite electrodes.

[0050] In this embodiment, in the battery 220 shown in Figure 1, the first electrode is the upward-facing negative electrode, while the second electrode is the downward-facing positive electrode. Figure 2 In the provided battery 220, the first electrode is the positive terminal facing left, and the second electrode is the negative terminal facing right. Note that this is not a limitation on the polarity of the first electrode, the polarity of the second electrode, or the orientation of each electrode in actual applications.

[0051] The lamp bead has a first electrode lead 230 and a second electrode lead 240.

[0052] The first electrode lead 230 is connected to the first electrode of the battery 220.

[0053] Preferably, the second electrode lead 240 has at least a partial wave structure, including a crest portion 241 and trough portions 242 located on both sides of the crest portion 241.

[0054] The crest portion 241 bends toward the direction of the second electrode of the battery 220 to form a raised contact point or a raised contact surface, and the trough portion 242 bends away from the second electrode of the battery 220 to form a V-shaped or U-shaped groove.

[0055] One end of the second electrode lead 240 is connected to the LED chip, such asFigure 1A As shown, the other end can be a free end, or it can be, as shown in the example. Figure 2 As shown, it is connected to the inner wall of the housing 200 of the light-emitting module 100.

[0056] Both the second electrode lead 240 and the first electrode lead 230 are made of soft metal, such as copper, and have controllable elastic deformation characteristics. They can deform in the direction of pressure under pressure and return to their initial shape before the pressure was applied when the pressure is removed.

[0057] Furthermore, an adjustment structure is provided between the second electrode lead 240 and the second electrode of the battery 220, through which the second electrode of the battery 220 is selectively connected.

[0058] The adjustment structure has a first position and a second position, which can cooperate with the second electrode lead 240 with a wavy structure.

[0059] like Figure 1A As shown, in the first position, the adjustment structure has the second electrode lead 240 in contact with the second electrode of the battery 220. The second electrode lead 240 is made of metal and has conductivity. When in contact with the second electrode, current is conducted, and the first electrode lead 230 of the first electrode of the battery 220, the battery 220, and the light-emitting lamp bead 210 are connected to form a closed circuit. The current path is: first electrode of battery 220 → first electrode lead 230 → lamp bead → second electrode lead 240 → second electrode of battery 220, and the lamp bead emits light.

[0060] like Figure 1B As shown, in the second position, the adjustment structure can increase the distance between the second electrode lead 240 and the battery 220, so that the second electrode lead 240 does not contact the second electrode of the battery 220, thereby disconnecting it from the second electrode.

[0061] As a typical implementation, the adjustment structure includes a first movable part 300 movably disposed within the light-emitting module 100.

[0062] The first movable part 300 is provided corresponding to the trough part 242 and can move back and forth relative to the trough part 242. That is, it can move inward into the trough part 242 and contact the trough part 242, or move outward away from the trough part 242 and separate from the trough part 242.

[0063] In a typical implementation, the first movable part 300 is thinner at the front and thicker at the back, including a thick body 320 at the rear end and a thin body 310 at the front end, wherein the minimum cross-sectional dimension of the thick body 320 is at least greater than the maximum cross-sectional dimension of the thin body 310.

[0064] In actual structural implementation, the transition between thick and thin sections of the first active part 300 can be achieved in two typical ways: such as Figure 3B As shown, the first type is a step-like abrupt change structure, where the structure suddenly changes from thin 310 to thick 320 at a specific position, forming a clear step-like transition; for example... Figure 3A As shown, the second type is a progressive gradient structure, that is, a continuous and smooth tapered transition is used from the thin body 310 to the thick body 320.

[0065] The dimensions of bold 320 and trough 242 are set to ensure sufficient jacking displacement while preventing excessive deformation that could damage the conductor.

[0066] The working process of the adjustment structure is as follows:

[0067] Assuming that, in the initial state, the protruding contact point or surface of the crest portion 241 on the second electrode lead 240 contacts the second electrode of the battery 220, at which point the circuit is turned on and the lamp bead emits light.

[0068] The adjustment structure begins to move, such as Figure 1A As shown, when in the first position, the first movable part 300 does not enter the trough part 242, the relative position between the second electrode lead 240 and the second electrode of the battery 220 does not change, and the protruding contact point or surface of the crest part 241 still contacts the second electrode of the battery 220.

[0069] As the adjustment structure continues to move, the thin body 310 begins to enter the trough 242. At this time, due to the small cross-sectional size of the thin body 310, it only provides slight support to the trough 242. The trough 242 may undergo a small displacement in the direction away from the second electrode of the battery 220, and the peaks located between the troughs 242 also undergo a small displacement. However, the displacement is insufficient to separate the protruding contact point or surface from the second electrode of the battery 220. Therefore, the circuit remains conductive, and the LED emits light.

[0070] like Figure 1B As shown, when the adjustment structure is in the second position, the first movable part 300 moves inward, the thin part 310 completely passes through the trough part 242, and the thick part 320 begins to extend into the trough part 242 of the wire. Due to the increased cross-sectional size of the thick part 320, it exerts a significant convex effect on the trough part 242, forcing the trough part 242 to displace significantly away from the second electrode of the battery 220. This displacement, through the linkage effect of the wire, causes the crest part 241 to displace sufficiently, ultimately resulting in the convex contact surface of the crest part 241 completely separating from the second electrode of the battery 220, the circuit being reliably disconnected, and the lamp bead going out.

[0071] In practical implementation, the two symmetrically distributed troughs 242 ensure that the lifting force is applied evenly, avoiding stress concentration on one side. Furthermore, corresponding to the two troughs, two first movable parts 300 are provided respectively. Compared with only one-sided first movable parts 300, two first movable parts 300 can ensure sufficient lifting force, and the displacement of the second electrode lead 240 is more stable, without tilting to one side.

[0072] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first movable part 300 has an inwardly recessed groove area 330 on the side facing the second electrode lead 240. The groove area 330 forms a partial receiving space that can accommodate at least a portion of the second electrode lead 240.

[0073] The groove area 330 can be set in the thin body 310 part, the thick body 320 part, or at the connection between the thin body 310 and the thick body 320.

[0074] For example, the cross-sectional shape can be arc-shaped or V-shaped, matching the surface shape of the second electrode lead 240.

[0075] When the first movable part 300 moves within the trough part 242, the trough part 242 first contacts the edge of the groove region 330, and then gradually slides into the groove region 330, which constrains the second electrode lead 240.

[0076] This constraint is dynamic and reversible. As the first movable part 300 continues to move, the second electrode lead 240 will detach from the groove area 330, and the constraint force will gradually disappear as the contact area decreases until the constraint is completely released.

[0077] This setting optimizes the feel of operation: it provides clear, tactile feedback, reduces the force required for operation, and achieves a smooth "click" feel.

[0078] As a typical implementation method, such as Figure 5 As shown, the movable component includes two first movable parts 300 arranged in parallel. The distance between the first movable parts 300 is consistent with the distance between the two troughs on the second electrode lead 240, so as to ensure that when moving, they can enter the corresponding troughs synchronously.

[0079] A second movable part 400 is provided between the first movable parts 300.

[0080] The second movable part 400 is provided with a switch part 500, which is exposed through an opening on the surface of the housing of the light-emitting module 100 and forms a sliding engagement with a guide groove provided on the surface of the housing of the light-emitting module 100.

[0081] When operated by the user, the switch 500 can move within the travel range limited by the card slot. When the switch 500 moves, it drives the second movable part 400 connected to it to move, which in turn drives the two first movable parts 300 to move synchronously.

[0082] The different positions of the switch part 500 within the slot correspond to different insertion depths of the first movable part 300: for example, when the switch part 500 slides to the outermost end of the slot, the first movable part 300 completely retracts from the trough 242, and the second electrode lead 240 remains in its natural state; when the switch part 500 approaches the middle position, the thin part 310 of the first movable part 300 extends into the trough 242. When the switch part 500 moves to the middle position, the thin part 310 of the first movable part 300 completely passes through the trough 242, while the thick part 320 begins to enter the trough 242; when the switch part 500 reaches the innermost end of the slot, the thick part 320 of the first movable part 300 completely extends into the trough 242.

[0083] There are multiple implementations of the overall structure of the adjustment mechanism. As some examples, please refer to Figures 1-4, for instance, as shown below. Figure 7 As shown, the two first movable parts 300 and the second movable part 400 together form an F-shaped structure, or, as... Figure 5 As shown, the second movable part 400 has a frame-shaped structure or a C-shaped structure. Or, as... Figure 6 As shown, the first movable part 300 and the second movable part 400 together form a frame structure.

[0084] In another implementation, such as Figure 8 As shown, an insulating gasket 340 is provided between the thick parts of a group of first movable parts arranged in parallel.

[0085] like Figure 9 As shown, the gasket moves in and out of the trough 242 as the first movable part moves. When the trough is raised relative to the second electrode of the battery, the gasket will intervene between the crest 241 and the second electrode, and ensure the electrical connection between the second electrode lead and the second battery is broken by its insulating properties.

[0086] like Figure 1A As shown in 1B, the battery 220 can be arranged radially or axially along the LED beads according to actual needs, to adapt to different spatial structure requirements.

[0087] The present invention also provides a luminescent badminton shuttlecock, comprising a sphere and blades connected to each other, wherein the sphere is provided with a groove; and a luminescent module 100 as described in any one of the above-described embodiments is disposed in the groove.
