Detailed Implementation

[0031] The following are specific embodiments of this application, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to further illustrate the technical solutions of this application. However, this application is not limited to these embodiments.

[0032] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This application provides an electronic candle lamp, including a candle lamp body 100 and a charging base 200.

[0033] The candle lamp body 100 includes a bottom cover 110 and a housing 120 with an opening. The bottom cover 110 covers the opening of the housing 120. The bottom cover 110 has a first charging connector 130 and a first magnetic component 140, with the first magnetic component 140 surrounding the first charging connector 130. The bottom cover 110 serves as the bottom sealing component of the candle lamp body 100, covering the opening of the housing 120, protecting the internal circuitry and components, and providing mounting positions for the first charging connector 130 and the first magnetic component 140. The housing 120 is the external structure of the candle lamp body 100, with its opening for mounting the bottom cover 110. The first charging connector 130 is a contact terminal for conducting electrical energy, which can be implemented using a metal spring or spring pin structure to achieve the conduction of the charging circuit. The first magnetic component 140 is a component capable of generating magnetic attraction, which can be implemented using a permanent magnet or an electromagnet.

[0034] The charging base 200 is provided with a second charging connector 210 and a second magnetic element 220. The second magnetic element 220 is arranged around the second charging connector 210. The second charging connector 210 is in contact with the first charging connector 130, and the second magnetic element 220 is attracted to the first magnetic element 140. The second charging connector 210 is mounted on the charging base 200 and corresponds to the first charging connector 130 of the candle lamp body 100. When the electronic candle lamp is placed on the charging base 200, the second charging connector 210 contacts the first charging connector 130, transferring electrical energy from an external power source to the electronic candle lamp to charge it. The second magnetic element 220 is arranged around the second charging connector 210 on the charging base 200 and is attracted to the first magnetic element 140 of the candle lamp body 100.

[0035] Specifically, when the candle lamp body 100 is placed on the charging base 200, the first magnetic component 140 and the second magnetic component 220 attract each other due to their opposite polarities. This magnetic attraction automatically aligns the first charging connector 130 and the second charging connector 210 and maintains close contact, while also forming a retaining force to resist external interference. If slight vibration or tilting occurs during charging, the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic component 140 and the second magnetic component 220 can promptly correct the positional shift and prevent the charging connectors from detaching.

[0036] This application utilizes the contact between the first charging connector 130 and the second charging connector 210, combined with the magnetic attraction of the first magnetic component 140 and the second magnetic component 220, to form a dual fixing mechanism. This ensures the reliability of power transmission between the candle lamp body 100 and the charging base 200, improves the safety of the electronic candle lamp, reduces damage to components due to charging abnormalities, and extends the lifespan of the electronic candle lamp. Simultaneously, the magnetic attraction structures of the first magnetic component 140 and the second magnetic component 220 respectively create stable holding forces around the first charging connector 130 and the second charging connector 210, preventing accidental disconnection due to external forces and effectively solving the problem of the electronic candle lamp easily tipping over during charging.

[0037] The bottom cover 110 and the housing 120 form a first receiving cavity 150. The bottom cover 110 has a first mounting hole that communicates with the first receiving cavity 150. A first charging connector 130 is inserted into the first mounting hole, and a first magnetic element 140 is disposed within the first receiving cavity 150. The first receiving cavity 150 is a closed space formed by the bottom cover 110 and the housing 120, which can be formed by a snap-fit ​​or threaded connection between the bottom cover 110 and the housing 120. The first mounting hole is a through-hole structure that penetrates the bottom cover 110, and can be a circular or square through-hole, used to fix the first charging connector 130 and partially expose it to contact the second charging connector 210 of the charging base 200.

[0038] Specifically, a first receiving cavity 150 is formed by connecting the bottom cover 110 to the housing 120. A first mounting hole penetrates the bottom cover 110 and communicates with the receiving cavity. After the charging connector is inserted into the mounting hole, one end is exposed for charging contact, and the other end is electrically connected to the circuit board 160 inside the receiving cavity. Magnetic components are fixed inside the receiving cavity and surround the charging connector. During charging, the second magnetic component 220 of the charging base 200 attracts the first magnetic component 140, causing the first charging connector 130 to make tight contact with the second charging connector 210. The first receiving cavity 150, by enclosing the first magnetic component 140 and at least part of the first charging connector 130, prevents external collisions from causing displacement or damage to the internal structure.

[0039] Further, the bottom cover 110 includes a first end face 111 and a second end face 112 disposed opposite to each other. A first mounting hole penetrates the first end face 111 and the second end face 112. The first end face 111 and the inner wall of the housing 120 form a first receiving cavity 150. A first mounting groove 111a is provided on the first end face 111, which surrounds the first mounting hole. The first magnetic element 140 is disposed in the first mounting groove 111a. The first end face 111 is the side plane of the bottom cover 110 facing the interior of the housing 120, used to cooperate with the inner wall of the housing 120 to form the first receiving cavity 150. The second end face 112 is the side plane of the bottom cover 110 facing the exterior, facilitating contact with the charging base 200. The first mounting groove 111a is a groove surrounding the first mounting hole, specifically a ring-shaped groove structure, used to limit the displacement of the first magnetic element 140.

[0040] Specifically, the bottom cover 110 forms a first receiving cavity 150 with the housing 120 through the first end face 111. The first mounting hole extends axially through the first end face 111 and the second end face 112. After the charging connector is inserted into the first mounting hole, one end extends to the outside, and the other end connects to the internal components. The first mounting groove 111a surrounds the first mounting hole in a ring structure. After the first magnetic element 140 is embedded in the first mounting groove 111a, it forms an axial attraction force with the second magnetic element 220 of the charging base 200. When the electronic candle lamp is placed on the charging base 200, the ring distribution of the first magnetic element 140 makes the attraction force evenly act around the first charging connector 130, avoiding charging interruption due to contact misalignment.

[0041] This application utilizes the engagement of a ring-shaped first magnetic element 140 with a first mounting groove 111a to provide radial constraint force to the first charging connector 130 when it contacts the second charging connector 210, thus preventing lateral displacement. Simultaneously, the first magnetic element 140, once embedded in the first mounting groove 111a, will not shift position due to vibration or tilting, ensuring the stability of the adsorption force.

[0042] The candle lamp body 100 also includes a circuit board 160 and a light-emitting component 170. The circuit board 160 is disposed within the first receiving cavity 150, and the light-emitting component 170 is disposed on the end of the housing 120 away from the bottom cover 110, and the light-emitting component 170 is connected to the circuit board 160. One end of the first charging connector 130 protrudes from the second end face 112, and the other end of the first charging connector 130 is connected to the circuit board 160. The circuit board 160 is an electronic substrate integrating control circuitry and a power supply module, and can be implemented using a printed circuit board. By fixing it within the first receiving cavity 150, damage to the circuitry caused by external impact is prevented. The light-emitting component 170 is a light source assembly for simulating a flame effect, and can be implemented using an LED array. One end of the first charging connector 130 protrudes from the second end face 112, and the charging interface portion is exposed on the surface of the bottom cover 110. This can be implemented using a copper spring contact, and the protruding structure ensures stable contact with the charging base 200 contacts. The other end of the first charging connector 130 is connected to the circuit board 160 so that external power can be directly transmitted to the circuit board 160 for power management.

[0043] Specifically, the circuit board 160 is installed in the first receiving cavity 150 formed by the bottom cover 110 and the housing 120, and is electrically connected to the light-emitting component 170 at the top through wires. When the charging base 200 is docked with the bottom cover 110, the protruding first charging connector 130 contacts the second charging connector 210 on the charging base 200, and the power is distributed by the circuit board 160 to drive the light-emitting component 170 to work.

[0044] refer to Figures 2-5 A control switch 180 is provided on the second end face 112, and the control switch 180 is connected to the circuit board 160. Specifically, the second end face 112 of the bottom cover 110 serves as the external contact surface, and the control switch 180 is fixed to the second end face 112 or embedded inside the bottom cover 110. When the user presses the control switch 180, a trigger signal is transmitted to the circuit board 160 through a wire, thereby controlling the on / off state or mode switching of the light-emitting component 170. By independently setting the control switch 180 on the second end face 112 of the bottom cover 110, separating it from the operating area of ​​the first charging connector 130, the probability of accidental touch is reduced, and the appearance remains simple.

[0045] In one embodiment, a connecting portion 190 protrudes from the first end face 111. The connecting portion 190 includes a plurality of first flanges 191 spaced apart axially in the first mounting hole. A plurality of second flanges 121 spaced apart axially in the first mounting hole are provided on the inner wall of the housing 120. At least one second flange 121 is engaged between two adjacent first flanges 191. Specifically, the bottom cover 110 and the housing 120 are fixed by the engaging structure of the first flanges 191 and the second flanges 121. When the housing 120 is fitted onto the bottom cover 110, the second flanges 121 on the inner wall of the housing 120 move axially to the gap between two adjacent first flanges 191, and are embedded in the gap through elastic deformation or interference fit, forming an axial limit. This structure prevents the bottom cover 110 and the housing 120 from separating axially when subjected to external force, and circumferential rotation is also restricted by the distribution of the multiple flanges.

[0046] The charging base 200 includes a first base 230 and a second base 240, which together form a second receiving cavity 250. The first base 230 has a second mounting hole that communicates with the second receiving cavity 250. A second charging connector 210 is inserted into the second mounting hole, and a second magnetic element 220 is disposed within the second receiving cavity 250. Specifically, the first base 230 and the second base 240 are connected by snaps or screws to form a closed second receiving cavity 250. The second charging connector 210 passes through the second mounting hole and is inserted into the second receiving cavity 250, with its contact end exposed on the surface of the first base 230. The second magnetic element 220 is fixed within the second receiving cavity 250 and surrounds the second charging connector 210 by adhesive bonding or embedding. When the electronic candle lamp is placed on the charging base 200, the second magnetic element 220 attracts the first magnetic element 140 at the bottom of the candle lamp, causing the second charging connector 210 to come into close contact with the first charging connector 130.

[0047] A second mounting groove 231 is provided on the side of the first base 230 away from the candle lamp body 100. The second mounting groove 231 surrounds the second mounting hole, and the second magnetic element 220 is disposed within the second mounting groove 231. Specifically, the second mounting groove 231 surrounds the second mounting hole, so that the second magnetic element 220 is precisely constrained in a predetermined position. When the electronic candle lamp is placed on the charging base 200, the second magnetic element 220 and the first magnetic element 140 on the bottom cover 110 generate a magnetic attraction force, ensuring that the second charging connector 210 and the first charging connector 130 maintain stable contact. The annularly distributed second mounting groove 231 ensures that the magnetic attraction force is evenly applied between the charging base 200 and the electronic candle lamp, avoiding displacement caused by uneven local force.

[0048] In one embodiment, multiple second charging connectors 210 are provided, and a charging port 241 is provided on the second base 240, which is connected to the multiple second charging connectors 210. Specifically, multiple independently conductive second charging connectors 210 are provided on the charging base 200, and these second charging connectors 210 are connected in parallel to the same charging port 241 through wires. After receiving external power input, the charging port 241 distributes electrical energy evenly to each second charging connector 210 through parallel lines, and finally transmits it to the charging circuit of multiple candle lamp bodies 100, realizing the charging of multiple candle lamp bodies 100.

[0049] The first base 230 has multiple indicator lights 232 on the side near the candle lamp body 100, each indicator light 232 corresponding to a number of second charging connectors 210. Specifically, when multiple second charging connectors 210 simultaneously charge different candle lamp bodies 100, each indicator light 232 displays independently according to the working status of its corresponding second charging connector 210. For example, when a second charging connector 210 is charging, the corresponding indicator light 232 displays red; when charging is complete, the indicator light 232 switches to green. This allows users to intuitively distinguish the real-time status of each second charging connector 210, avoiding misoperation due to confusion about charging status, thereby improving charging efficiency and equipment reliability.

[0050] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of this application are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.
