[0002] With the increasing demand for outdoor leisure, the functional expansion of outdoor umbrellas has become a consumer hotspot. However, existing outdoor umbrellas and accessories have the following shortcomings: First, the independent and non-foldable nature of fans and lights increases the folded size. Traditional outdoor umbrellas only provide shade and rain protection, and the problem of stuffiness under the umbrella is prominent in summer. Some added fans are fixed and do not have a folding structure, which increases the size when stored and may even affect the operation of closing the umbrella. At the same time, there are few outdoor umbrellas with lighting functions, and additional lights are required for nighttime use, which is inconvenient.
[0003] Secondly, the fixed position and angle of the fan and light fixtures result in poor applicability. The fans and light fixtures of existing products are fixed in one position, and their effect is fixed in a specific area, which cannot be directed to wherever people are active. Utility Model Content

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0016] Example Please see Figures 1 to 7 The present invention provides a technical solution: an automatic folding fan light for outdoor umbrellas, comprising an annular housing 1, a clamping device 2 installed in the middle of the inner side of the annular housing 1, a battery 3 and a circuit board 4 installed inside the annular housing 1, a switch 5, an infrared receiver 6 and a connection port 7 installed on one side of the circuit board 4 extending through the outer ring surface of the annular housing 1, a transmission component 8 fixedly installed on the upper periphery of the annular housing 1, a swingable fan light component 9 installed above the transmission component 8, and an arc-shaped LED light 10 installed below the annular housing 1.
[0017] Specifically, the automatic folding fan light is equipped with an infrared remote control. The control signal of the remote control is received through the infrared receiver 6. There are four fan light components 9, which are evenly distributed around the annular housing 1. When the switch 5 is pressed to turn it on, the arc-shaped LED light 10 works synchronously. The working status of the arc-shaped LED light 10 and the fan light components 9 can be controlled by the remote control.
[0018] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The annular housing 1 includes a first semicircular ring 101 and a second semicircular ring 102. A connecting shaft 103 is installed at one end of the first semicircular ring 101 and the second semicircular ring 102. A spring buckle 104 is installed at the other end of the first semicircular ring 101. A snap block 105 is provided at the other end of the second semicircular ring 102.
[0019] Specifically, the connecting shaft 103 passes through the shaft holes at the corresponding ends of the first semicircular ring 101 and the second semicircular ring 102, allowing them to rotate relative to each other around the connecting shaft 103, thus realizing the opening and closing of the annular housing 1. When open, a radial opening is formed, which holds the umbrella handle, placing the umbrella handle between the two clamping devices 2. When closed, the clamping devices 2 can clamp the umbrella handle, and the opening ends of both can be locked by the engagement of the spring buckle 104 and the locking block 105. The spring buckle 104 includes a buckle body and a spring. The outer end of the buckle body extends out of the outer ring surface of the first semicircular ring 101. When the annular housing 1 is closed, the buckle body automatically engages with the slot of the locking block 105 under the drive of the spring force to complete the locking and fixing of the opening end. When unlocking is required, the exposed buckle body is pressed to overcome the spring force and move inward, causing the buckle body to disengage from the locking block 105, thereby opening the annular housing 1.
[0020] Please see Figure 4 The clamping device 2 includes a compression spring 201, a slider 202 and a rubber pad 203. The slider 202 slides along the radial direction of the annular housing 1, and the elastic force of the compression spring 201 drives the slider 202 to move towards the center of the annular housing 1.
[0021] Specifically, the inner side of the rubber pad 203 is arc-shaped and elastic, which allows it to adapt to deformation and hold the outer surface of the umbrella handle under the elastic force of the compression spring 201. Because the rubber material of the rubber pad 203 has a high coefficient of friction with the umbrella handle, the friction force is large, which allows the annular shell 1 to hold the umbrella handle tightly and not fall off.
[0022] Please see Figure 5 The curved LED light 10, fan light assembly 9, transmission assembly 8 and battery 3 are all connected to the circuit board 4 via cables. The switch 5, infrared receiver 6 and connection port 7 are all directly mounted on the circuit board 4 via pins. The circuit board 4 is equipped with electrical components such as microcontroller and linear regulator.
[0023] Specifically, the circuit board 4 controls the operation of the arc-shaped LED light 10, the fan light assembly 9, and the transmission assembly 8 through a microcontroller. The microcontroller can be a 51 series microcontroller. The linear voltage regulator provides a stable voltage for each electrical component. The battery 3 powers the circuit board 4. The infrared receiver 6 is used to receive remote control signals. The connection port 7 is used to charge the battery 3 and directly power the circuit board 4.
[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 7 The transmission assembly 8 includes a transmission housing 801, an electric motor 802 is mounted below the transmission housing 801, a driving bevel gear 803 is mounted on the shaft of the electric motor 802, a rotatable connecting rod 804 is mounted above the transmission housing 801, and a driven bevel gear 805 that meshes with the driving bevel gear 803 is sleeved on the outer surface of the connecting rod 804. The fan light assembly 9 is connected to the connecting rod 804 and rotates synchronously.
[0025] Specifically, the transmission housing 801 is fixedly connected to the annular housing 1 by screws. The connecting rod 804 is a circular rod with flat surfaces on both sides. The mounting hole in the middle of the driven bevel gear 805 has the same cross-sectional size as the connecting rod 804, so that the driven bevel gear 805 can rotate synchronously with the connecting rod 804. The mounting hole connecting the fan light assembly 9 to the connecting rod 804 has the same cross-sectional size as the connecting rod 804, so that the fan light assembly 9 can rotate synchronously with the connecting rod 804. When the electric motor 802 drives the driven bevel gear 805 to rotate through the active bevel gear 803, the fan light assembly 9 also swings synchronously. At the same time, the fan light assembly 9 and the transmission assembly 8 are limited by their limiting structures, so that their swing angle can only be adjusted from vertical downward to outward to horizontal.
[0026] Please see Figure 7 The fan light assembly 9 includes a fan light base 901, a net cover 902 is fixedly installed on the top of the fan light base 901, a fan blade 903 is installed inside the net cover 902, a lower net cover 904 is installed below the net cover 902, and a ring-shaped LED light 905 is installed around the lower net cover 904.
[0027] Specifically, the net cover 902 is perpendicular to the fan light base 901. The fan light base 901 has a hollow structure. A channel communicating with the inner cavity of the fan light base 901 is provided on the top of the fan light base 901 for passing cables. The ring-shaped LED light 905 and the fan blade 903 do not share cables, and their control signals are independent of each other.
[0028] When in use, the fan light can be detached from the umbrella handle and carried separately. To detach, simply press the spring clip 104 to open the annular housing 1. After removal, it is easy to carry to a suitable place for charging. For installation, it can be fixed to any clampable umbrella handle. For example, if the inner diameter of the annular housing 1 is 104 mm, and the two clamping devices 2 can clamp cylinders as small as 50 mm, it can be installed on an umbrella handle with a diameter of 50-100 mm. The steps for installing it on the umbrella handle are as follows: First, press the spring clip 104 to open the annular housing 1. Then, clamp the umbrella handle from the radial opening, ensuring that the annular housing 1 is perpendicular to and nearly concentric with the umbrella handle. Further close the annular housing 1 and lock the free end of the annular housing 1 using the spring clip 104 and the locking block 105. At this point, the two clamping devices 2 hold the umbrella handle from both sides, fixing the annular housing 1 to the umbrella handle. During this process, its installation position and height can be determined according to the actual situation. After installation, press switch 5. The arc-shaped LED light 10 will light up, indicating normal operation. Further, according to needs, use the remote control to turn on the fan blades 903 and the ring LED light 905 of the fan light assembly 9. Then, according to needs, use the remote control to control the upward swing angle of the fan light assembly 9, so that the direction of the fan light assembly 9 can be changed as needed. During this process, all four fan light assemblies 9 swing simultaneously. The transmission component 8 has no self-locking structure and the weight of the fan light assembly 9 itself cannot drive the electric motor 802 in reverse. Therefore, after adjusting the angle, all electric motors 802 can be de-energized. At this time, the fan light assembly 9 can be bent up and down by external force. That is, the swing angle of each fan light assembly 9 can be adjusted individually by human intervention, so that each fan light assembly 9 can better act in different directions according to needs. When it is necessary to close the umbrella, the fan light can be directly removed or all the fan light assemblies 9 can be folded down so as not to hinder the closing of the umbrella.
[0029] In summary, the automatic folding fan light on this outdoor umbrella can be directly removed through the openable annular housing 1, or its size can be reduced by folding the fan light assembly 9 through the transmission component 8, thus avoiding it occupying the space when the umbrella is closed and preventing the umbrella from becoming larger after folding. The openable annular housing 1 allows it to be installed on different umbrella handles, and the installation height can be adjusted according to needs. After installation, the transmission component 8 can be controlled by the remote control to drive the fan light assembly 9 to swing, thereby adjusting the orientation of the fan light assembly 9 and achieving a more versatile effect.
[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
