[0002] Ceramic ornaments, as decorative items that combine artistry and practicality, have seen a continuous rise in popularity in home décor, the gift market, and cultural collections in recent years. Their material characteristics, craftsmanship classifications, design styles, and market trends collectively constitute the core value of this category.

[0003] However, existing ceramic ornaments often lack a retractable timekeeping mechanism, making them less practical.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a time-capable ceramic ornament to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the technical problem that existing time-keeping ceramic ornaments often lack a retractable timing structure and thus have poor practicality, this utility model provides a time-keeping ceramic ornament.

[0006] The time-keeping ceramic ornament provided by this utility model includes: a ceramic ornament body; a ceramic base fixedly installed at the bottom of the ceramic ornament body; a timer located inside the ceramic ornament body; a housing fixedly installed at the bottom of the timer; a lifting and telescopic mechanism installed on the inner wall of the bottom of the ceramic ornament body for controlling the lifting and retraction of the timer; and an adsorption and fixing mechanism installed on the ceramic base for adsorbing and installing the ceramic ornament body.

[0007] Preferably, the lifting and telescopic mechanism includes: a threaded sleeve fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bottom of the ceramic ornament body; a sliding sleeve slidably sleeved on the threaded sleeve and fixedly connected to the housing; a servo motor fixedly installed on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve; a rotating rod installed on the output shaft of the servo motor via a coupling and extending into the inside of the threaded sleeve; and a threaded block fixedly installed at one end of the rotating rod and threadedly connected to the inner wall of the threaded sleeve.

[0008] Preferably, a plurality of limiting blocks are fixedly installed on the threaded sleeve, and a plurality of limiting grooves are formed on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve, and the plurality of limiting blocks are slidably connected to the inner walls on both sides of the plurality of limiting grooves respectively.

[0009] Preferably, a speaker is provided on the inner wall of the housing, and multiple sound-transmitting holes are provided on the housing.

[0010] Preferably, a lithium battery is disposed on the inner wall of the housing, and a charging interface is disposed on one side of the housing.

[0011] Preferably, the adsorption and fixing mechanism includes: a vacuum suction cup fixedly installed on the inner wall of the ceramic base; a negative pressure pump installed on the inner wall of the ceramic ornament body; a negative pressure pipe installed at the air inlet of the negative pressure pump and connected to the vacuum suction cup; and a one-way valve installed on the negative pressure pipe.

[0012] Preferably, the vacuum suction cup is provided with a pressure relief pipe, and the pressure relief pipe is provided with a pressure relief valve.

[0013] Preferably, the timer is equipped with a controller, and the bottom of the ceramic base is equipped with anti-slip pads.

[0014] Compared with related technologies, the time-keeping ceramic ornament provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: This utility model provides a timer-enabled ceramic ornament. The timer allows users to easily keep track of time, thus giving the ceramic ornament a timing function. A lifting and retracting mechanism allows the timer to extend or retract. When in use, the timer can extend outside the ceramic ornament body; when not in use, it can be retracted inside, preventing it from affecting the overall aesthetics of the ornament. An adsorption and fixing mechanism allows the ceramic ornament to be adhered to a tabletop, preventing it from falling and breaking due to accidental collisions. A servo motor drives a rotating rod, which in turn rotates a threaded block on the inner wall of a threaded sleeve. This causes the rotating rod, servo motor, and sliding sleeve to move up and down. The sliding sleeve then moves the housing and timer up and down, thereby controlling the lifting and retraction of the timer. When in use... The timer extends outside the ceramic ornament body. When not in use, the timer can be stored inside the ceramic ornament body to avoid affecting its overall aesthetics. Multiple limiting blocks slide on the inner walls of multiple limiting grooves to guide and limit the raising and lowering of the sliding sleeve. A speaker can be used in conjunction with the timer. When the timer completes, the controller controls the speaker to emit sound, which is transmitted to the outside through multiple sound holes to remind the user. A negative pressure pump and negative pressure pipe can extract air from the one-way valve, allowing the vacuum suction cup to adhere and fix it to the table, preventing the ceramic ornament body from falling and breaking due to accidental collisions. A pressure relief pipe and pressure relief valve allow outside air to enter the vacuum suction cup, thereby releasing the vacuum suction cup from the table. The controller can operate and control the device. Attached Figure Description

[0018] Please refer to the following: Figure 1-3 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the time-keeping ceramic ornament provided by this utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 A three-dimensional assembly structure diagram of the timer and housing; Figure 3 for Figure 1 The enlarged schematic diagram of part A shown in the figure. The timerable ceramic ornament includes: a ceramic ornament body 1; a ceramic base 2 fixedly installed at the bottom of the ceramic ornament body 1; a timer 3 located inside the ceramic ornament body 1; a housing 4 fixedly installed at the bottom of the timer 3; a lifting and telescopic mechanism installed on the inner wall of the bottom of the ceramic ornament body 1 for controlling the raising and lowering of the timer 3; and an adsorption fixing mechanism installed on the ceramic base 2 for adsorbing and fixing the ceramic ornament body 1. The timer 3 allows the user to easily keep track of time, thus giving the ceramic ornament a timer function. The lifting and telescopic mechanism allows the timer 3 to be raised and lowered. When in use, the timer 3 can be extended to the outside of the ceramic ornament body 1, and when not in use, the timer 3 can be stored inside the ceramic ornament body 1 to avoid affecting the overall aesthetics of the ceramic ornament body 1. The adsorption fixing mechanism can adsorb and fix the ceramic ornament on the table to prevent the ceramic ornament body 1 from falling to the ground and breaking due to accidental collision.

[0019] The lifting and telescopic mechanism includes: a threaded sleeve 5 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bottom of the ceramic ornament body 1; a sliding sleeve 6 slidably sleeved on the threaded sleeve 5 and fixedly connected to the housing 4; a servo motor 7 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 6, the servo motor 7 being model A06B-2041-B605; a rotating rod 8 installed on the output shaft of the servo motor 7 via a coupling and extending into the interior of the threaded sleeve 5; and a threaded block 9 fixedly installed at one end of the rotating rod 8 and threadedly connected to the inner wall of the threaded sleeve 5. The rotating rod 8 is driven to rotate by the servo motor 7, and the threaded block 9 is driven to rotate threadedly on the inner wall of the threaded sleeve 5 by the rotating rod 8, which allows the rotating rod 8, the servo motor 7, and the sliding sleeve 6 to move up and down. The sliding sleeve 6 drives the housing 4 and the timer 3 to move up and down, thereby controlling the lifting and telescopic movement of the timer 3. When in use, the timer 3 can extend to the outside of the ceramic ornament body 1, and when not in use, the timer 3 can be stored inside the ceramic ornament body 1 to avoid the timer 3 affecting the overall aesthetics of the ceramic ornament body 1.

[0020] Multiple limiting blocks 10 are fixedly installed on the threaded sleeve 5, and multiple limiting grooves 11 are opened on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 6. The multiple limiting blocks 10 are slidably connected to the inner walls on both sides of the multiple limiting grooves 11 respectively. The sliding of the multiple limiting blocks 10 on the inner walls of the multiple limiting grooves 11 can guide and limit the lifting and lowering of the sliding sleeve 6.

[0021] A speaker 12 is provided on the inner wall of the housing 4. The housing 4 has multiple sound-transmitting holes 13. The speaker 12 can be used in conjunction with the timer 3. When the timer 3 finishes timing, the controller 22 controls the speaker 12 to emit sound, which is transmitted to the outside through the multiple sound-transmitting holes 13, thereby reminding the user.

[0022] A lithium battery 14 is provided on the inner wall of the housing 4, and a charging interface 15 is provided on one side of the housing 4. The device can be powered by the lithium battery 14, and an external charging cable can be connected through the charging interface 15 to charge the lithium battery 14.

[0023] The adsorption and fixing mechanism includes: a vacuum suction cup 16 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the ceramic base 2; a negative pressure pump 17, model HIBLOW HP-20, installed on the inner wall of the ceramic ornament body 1; a negative pressure pipe 18 installed at the air inlet of the negative pressure pump 17 and connected to the vacuum suction cup 16; and a one-way valve 19 installed on the negative pressure pipe 18. The air in the one-way valve 19 can be extracted by the negative pressure pump 17 and the negative pressure pipe 18, so that the vacuum suction cup 16 can be adsorbed and fixed on the table, preventing the ceramic ornament body 1 from falling to the ground and breaking due to accidental collision.

[0024] The vacuum suction cup 16 is provided with a pressure relief pipe 20 and a pressure relief valve 21. Through the pressure relief pipe 20 and the pressure relief valve 21, external air can enter the vacuum suction cup 16, thereby releasing the vacuum suction cup 16 from its adsorption and fixation state on the table.

[0025] The timer 3 is equipped with a controller 22, model ZG-ASLM, and the bottom of the ceramic base 2 is equipped with anti-slip pads 23. The device can be operated and controlled through the controller 22.

[0026] The working principle of the time-keeping ceramic ornament provided by this utility model is as follows: The servo motor 7 drives the rotating rod 8 to rotate, and the rotating rod 8 drives the threaded block 9 to rotate on the inner wall of the threaded sleeve 5. This allows the rotating rod 8, the servo motor 7, and the sliding sleeve 6 to move up and down. The sliding sleeve 6 drives the housing 4 and the timer 3 to move up and down, thereby controlling the lifting, lowering, extension, and retraction of the timer 3. When in use, the timer 3 can extend to the outside of the ceramic ornament body 1. When not in use, the timer 3 can be stored inside the ceramic ornament body 1 to avoid the timer 3 affecting the overall aesthetics of the ceramic ornament body 1. The air in the one-way valve 19 can be extracted by the negative pressure pump 17 and negative pressure pipe 18, so that the vacuum suction cup 16 can be attached to the table and fixed, preventing the ceramic ornament 1 from falling to the ground and breaking due to accidental collision. The external air can be introduced into the vacuum suction cup 16 through the pressure relief pipe 20 and pressure relief valve 21, thereby releasing the vacuum suction cup 16 from the attachment state to the table. The speaker 12 can be used in conjunction with the timer 3. When the timer 3 finishes counting, the controller 22 controls the speaker 12 to emit a sound, which is transmitted to the outside through multiple sound holes 13, thereby reminding the user. The ornament can be powered by the lithium battery 14, and an external charging cable can be connected through the charging interface 15 to charge the lithium battery 14.

[0027] Compared with related technologies, the time-keeping ceramic ornament provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: This invention provides a timer-enabled ceramic ornament. The timer 3 allows for convenient timekeeping, thus giving the ceramic ornament a timing function. A lifting and retracting mechanism allows the timer 3 to be raised and lowered. When in use, the timer 3 can extend outside the ceramic ornament body 1; when not in use, it can be retracted inside the ceramic ornament body 1, preventing it from affecting the overall aesthetics. An adsorption and fixing mechanism allows the ceramic ornament to be adhered to a tabletop, preventing it from falling and breaking due to accidental collisions. A servo motor 7 drives a rotating rod 8, which in turn drives a threaded block 9 to rotate on the inner wall of a threaded sleeve 5. This causes the rotating rod 8, servo motor 7, and sliding sleeve 6 to move up and down. The sliding sleeve 6 then moves the housing 4 and the timer 3 up and down, thus controlling the raising and lowering of the timer 3. When in use, the timer 3 can extend outside the ceramic ornament body 1. When not in use, the timer 3 can be stored inside the ceramic ornament body 1 to avoid affecting its overall aesthetics. Multiple limit blocks 10 slide on the inner walls of multiple limit grooves 11 to guide and limit the lifting and lowering of the sliding sleeve 6. The speaker 12 can be used in conjunction with the timer 3. When the timer 3 finishes timing, the controller 22 controls the speaker 12 to emit a sound, which is transmitted to the outside through multiple sound holes 13 to remind the user. The negative pressure pump 17 and negative pressure pipe 18 can extract the air from the one-way valve 19, so that the vacuum suction cup 16 can be attached to the table and fixed to the table, preventing the ceramic ornament body 1 from falling to the ground and breaking due to accidental collision. The pressure relief pipe 20 and pressure relief valve 21 can allow external air to enter the vacuum suction cup 16, thereby releasing the vacuum suction cup 16 from the table. The controller 22 can operate and control the device.
