Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of decorative products, and in particular to an artificial flower. Background Technology

[0002] In daily life, people like to decorate venues with flowers and other ornaments to enhance the atmosphere when holding events or gatherings. Some people like to keep flowers at home or in the office for a long time. However, fresh flowers have a short lifespan, are expensive, and need to be replaced after each event or gathering. Even if they are placed in a vase and kept in water, they will wither quickly. Therefore, artificial flowers have been introduced to the market, overcoming the problem of needing to be replaced frequently with fresh flowers.

[0003] However, during daily use or transportation, the flowers or petals of these artificial flowers may break or deform. Due to the integrated structure design of the artificial flowers, the disassembly process is complicated, making it inconvenient for ordinary users to maintain and replace them. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model aims to solve the technical problems in the prior art mentioned above, and proposes a simulated flower, which includes: a support member; a flower head, the flower head being connected to one end of the support member, the flower head including at least two connecting parts, the at least two connecting parts being components of the flower head, and each of the connecting parts being detachably connected; and a decorative piece, the decorative piece being disposed between the connecting parts and connected to the connecting parts.

[0005] Furthermore, the connecting portion has at least two hooks and at least two engaging portions opposite to the hooks, wherein the hooks of one connecting portion and the engaging portions of another connecting portion can cooperate to lock and separate.

[0006] Furthermore, the connecting part is configured as a hollow structure with a peripheral wall, the snap-fit ​​part is an opening formed on the peripheral wall, and the snap hook engages with the edge of the opening to achieve mutual locking.

[0007] Furthermore, a central axis is provided inside the flower head, and one end of the decorative piece is connected to the central axis. An accommodating space is formed inside the supporting member, and a driving module and a traction member are provided in the accommodating space. One end of the traction member is connected to the driving module, and the other end is connected to the central axis. The decorative piece, the connecting part, and the central axis are all rotatably connected. The driving module can drive the traction member to move along the radial direction of the supporting member. At this time, the traction member drives the central axis to move, thereby causing the decorative piece to swing.

[0008] Furthermore, the traction component is made of a rigid material.

[0009] Furthermore, the traction component is made of a flexible material, and an elastic element is also provided between the flower head and the support member. When the drive module applies a driving force to the traction component to move away from the flower head, the traction component drives the central axis component to move, thereby causing the decorative component to swing. At this time, the elastic potential energy of the elastic element increases. When the drive module removes the driving force on the traction component, the elastic element can convert the elastic potential energy into a force that moves the traction component and the central axis component toward the flower head. At this time, the decorative component returns to its position before swinging.

[0010] Furthermore, the drive module includes: a motor; a transmission component, one end of which is connected to the motor and the other end of which is connected to the traction component, the transmission component being used to transmit the force generated by the motor to the traction component.

[0011] Furthermore, the transmission component includes: a first transmission component having an external thread; and a second transmission component having an internal thread that engages with the external thread. The external thread meshes with the internal thread. The first transmission component is connected to the motor, and the second transmission component is connected to the traction component. The motor can drive the first transmission component to rotate, thereby causing the second transmission component to rotate and move in the radial direction, so as to drive the traction component to move in the radial direction.

[0012] Furthermore, the support member includes: a handle portion, wherein the drive module is disposed inside the handle portion; and a rod portion, wherein the traction member is disposed inside the rod portion and is capable of moving inside the rod portion.

[0013] The flower head of this invention is assembled with a detachable connecting part, which allows for quick disassembly and replacement of at least one connecting part and at least one decorative piece, reducing maintenance costs and shortening maintenance and disassembly time. By incorporating a drive module and a traction component, the decorative piece rotatably connected to the connecting part can be driven to swing.

[0024] The following discloses various implementations or embodiments of the described subject matter. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of elements and arrangements are described below. These are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. For example, a first feature subsequently described in the specification being formed above or on a second feature can include implementations where the first and second features are formed in a direct connection, or implementations where an additional feature is formed between the first and second features, thus the first and second features may not be directly connected. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples in these disclosures.

[0025] In the following description, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of this application. Therefore, the drawings and description are considered to be exemplary in nature and not restrictive.

[0026] refer to Figures 1 to 4 According to this embodiment, the simulated flower 100 includes: a support member 1; a flower head 2, which is connected to one end of the support member 1, the flower head 2 including at least two connecting parts 21, the at least two connecting parts 21 being components of the flower head 2, and each connecting part 21 being detachably connected to the others; and a decorative part 3, which is disposed between the connecting parts 21 and connected to the connecting parts 21. It is understood that multiple decorative parts 3 can be provided as needed. Since the connecting parts 21 are detachable, when some connecting parts 21 are deformed or damaged, the connecting parts 21 can be easily disassembled and replaced. Since each decorative part 3 is disposed between two connecting parts 21, disassembling the connecting parts 21 also allows for the maintenance and replacement of the decorative parts 3, enabling quick disassembly and replacement of at least one connecting part 21 and at least one decorative part 3, reducing maintenance costs and shortening maintenance and disassembly time. Preferably, the detachable structure is a quick-release structure, such as a snap-fit ​​structure, magnetic structure, interference fit structure, threaded structure, etc.

[0027] refer to Figure 3In some embodiments, the connecting portion 21 has at least two hooks 211 and at least two engaging portions 212 opposite to the hooks 211, wherein the hooks 211 of one connecting portion 21 and the engaging portions 212 of another connecting portion 21 can cooperate to lock and separate. Since each connecting portion 21 has hooks 211 and engaging portions 212, there is no specific order in which the connecting portions 21 are combined, and each connecting portion 21 can cooperate to lock and separate with another connecting portion 21. The hooks 211 have a simple structure, allowing for quick locking and disassembly, and are low in manufacturing cost.

[0028] refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the connecting portion 21 is configured as a hollow structure with a peripheral wall 213, and the latching portion 212 is an opening formed in the peripheral wall 213. The latch 211 engages with the edge of the opening to achieve mutual locking. When one of the connecting portions 21 is engaged with the other, the latch 211 of one of the connecting portions 21 first contacts the inner side of the peripheral wall 213 of the other connecting portion 21 and the latch 211 deforms inward. When the latch 211 moves to a position engaging with the edge of the opening, it returns to its original shape, at which point the two connecting portions 21 are locked. When it is necessary to unlock the two connecting portions 21, pressing the latch 211 causes it to deform inward, and simultaneously pulling one of the connecting portions 21 separates the two connecting portions 21.

[0029] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6In some embodiments, a central axis 7 is provided inside the flower head 2, and one end of the decorative piece 3 is connected to the central axis 7. It can be understood that the central axis 7 is located within a plurality of connecting parts 21. The interior of the support member 1 forms a receiving space 12, in which a drive module 4 and a traction member 5 are provided. One end of the traction member 5 is connected to the drive module 4, and the other end is connected to the central axis 7. The decorative piece 3 is rotatably connected to both the connecting parts 21 and the central axis 7. The drive module 4 can drive the traction member 5 to move along the radial direction of the support member 1. At this time, the traction member 5 drives the central axis 7 to move, thereby causing the decorative piece 3 to swing. The swing principle of the decorative piece 3 is the same as the lever principle. The fulcrum is the connection point between the decorative piece 3 and the connecting part 21, and the power arm is from the connection point between the decorative piece 3 and the connecting part 21 to the connection point between the decorative piece 3 and the central axis 7. In some embodiments, when the traction member 5 moves away from the flower head 2, the decorative member 3 swings inward; when the traction member 5 moves towards the flower head 2, the decorative member 3 swings outward. It is understood that the swinging direction of the decorative member 3 can also be reversed. In some embodiments, the traction member 5 is made of a rigid material, and the movement of the traction member 5 is entirely controlled by the drive module 4.

[0030] In some embodiments, the traction member 5 is made of a flexible material, and an elastic element 6 is also provided between the flower head 2 and the support member 1. When the drive module 4 applies a driving force to the traction member 5 in a direction away from the flower head 2, the traction member 5 drives the central axis member 7 to move, thereby causing the decorative member 3 to swing. At this time, the elastic potential energy of the elastic element 6 increases. When the drive module 4 removes the driving force on the traction member 5, the elastic element 6 can convert the elastic potential energy into a force that causes the traction member 5 and the central axis member 7 to move towards the flower head 2. At this time, the decorative member 3 returns to its position before swinging. In this embodiment, the drive module 4 only needs to apply a pulling force to the traction member 5 away from the flower head 2, without applying a force in the opposite direction. Only by removing the driving force on the traction member 5, the traction member 5 can return to its state before being pulled, and the decorative member 3 also resets at the same time.

[0031] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5In some embodiments, the drive module 4 includes: a motor 41; a transmission member 42, one end of which is connected to the motor 41 and the other end of which is connected to the traction member 5. The transmission member 42 is used to transmit the force generated by the motor 41 to the traction member 5. The transmission member 42 can convert the energy generated by the motor 41 into a radial force, thereby driving the traction member 5 to move radially. It is understood that the drive module 4 also includes a battery 44 for powering the motor 41; and a circuit board 43 for controlling the drive module 4.

[0032] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the transmission component 42 includes: a first transmission component 421 having an external thread 4211; and a second transmission component 422 having an internal thread 4221 that engages with the external thread 4211. The external thread 4211 and the internal thread 4221 mesh. The first transmission component 421 is connected to the motor 41, and the second transmission component 422 is connected to the traction component 5. The motor 41 can drive the first transmission component 421 to swing, thereby causing the second transmission component 422 to move radially while swinging, thus causing the traction component 5 to move radially. This threaded transmission method allows the traction component 5 to move linearly and can be fixed at any position, thereby making the swing of the decorative component 3 linearly controllable. Furthermore, the transmission component 42 has a simple structure and low manufacturing cost.

[0033] refer to Figures 1 to 5 In some embodiments, the support member 1 includes: a handle portion 13, the drive module 4 being disposed inside the handle portion 13; and a rod portion 14, the traction member 5 being disposed inside the rod portion 14, and the traction member 5 being able to move inside the rod portion 14. Users can grasp the handle portion 13 to operate the drive module 4 more conveniently. The rod portion 14 can also be designed with different lengths according to different usage scenarios, making the usage scenarios of the artificial flower 100 more diverse.

[0034] In some embodiments, the device includes: at least two rods 14; at least two traction members 5, the number of which is equal to the number of rods 14, with the ends of the at least two traction members 5 located away from the flower heads 2 simultaneously connected to the drive module 4; and at least two flower heads 2, the number of which is equal to the number of traction members 5 and each flower head 2 is connected to one of the traction members 5. According to the structure of this embodiment, multiple flowers can be arranged in a bouquet of artificial flowers 100, and different flowers can be arbitrarily combined. The traction members 5 can extend in different directions to simulate the shapes of various bouquets, making the artificial flowers 100 more popular.

[0035] The flower head 2 of this invention is assembled with a detachable connecting part 21, which allows for quick disassembly and replacement of at least one connecting part 21 and at least one decorative part 3, reducing maintenance costs and shortening maintenance and disassembly time. By setting a drive module 4 and a traction member 5, the decorative part 3, which is rotatably connected to the connecting part 21, can be driven to swing, increasing the usage options of the artificial flower 100. By setting multiple traction members 5 and cooperating with a specific drive module 4, it is also possible to achieve a combination of multiple flower heads 2 and multiple stems 14 in a single bouquet, further increasing the diversity of the artificial flower 100.
