Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of artificial flower technology, and more specifically, to a flower head structure that can open and close. Background Technology

[0002] In fields such as decoration, display, toys, and robotics, biomimetic structures that simulate the opening and closing movements of real flowers have a wide range of applications. These structures can showcase the dynamic beauty of flowers opening and closing through mechanical motion, greatly enhancing visual appeal and interactivity. Currently, there are various existing technologies for realizing the opening and closing of flower heads, but they generally have some limitations. For example, some use motors to directly drive each petal, resulting in complex structures, cumbersome control, high costs, and a bulky overall structure; others utilize simple linkage mechanisms, but often struggle to achieve coordinated and smooth opening and closing movements of multiple petals, resulting in stiff motion trajectories and a lack of natural beauty; still others use flexible materials to achieve opening and closing through deformation, but their durability is poor and it is difficult to maintain a specific unfolded shape. In particular, for structures that require the synchronous and orderly opening and closing of multiple petals, existing solutions typically require an independent drive or transmission system for each layer or even each petal unit, which not only makes the internal structure overcrowded but also significantly increases the difficulty of manufacturing and assembly. Furthermore, how to efficiently transform a simple linear drive (such as push-pull or slide) into the rotational motion of multiple petals within a compact axial space, while ensuring that the petals are stably positioned in both open and closed states, is a pressing problem that needs to be solved in the existing technology. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0015] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0016] Example Please refer to Figures 1-5 This embodiment provides an openable and closable flower head structure, including a flower branch mechanism and a flower holder mechanism. The flower branch mechanism includes a column 1 and multiple layers of flower branch sections 3 arranged along the axis of the column 1. Each layer of flower branch section 3 includes multiple circumferentially arranged flower branch bodies 31, and each flower branch body 31 is rotatably connected to the column 1. The flower holder mechanism includes a sleeve 2 and multiple layers of travel grooves 4 opened along the axis of the sleeve 2. Each layer of travel grooves 4 includes multiple circumferentially opened grooves 41. The sleeve 2 is fitted onto the column 1 and can move freely along the axis of the column 1. Multiple flower branch bodies 31 correspond one-to-one with multiple grooves 41, and the groove wall of each groove 41 can abut against its corresponding flower branch body 31, driving the flower branch body 31 to rotate.

[0017] A corresponding flower branch 3 is rotated on the column 1 to simulate a multi-layered petal structure, while the flower branch body 31 of each layer of the flower branch 3 simulates each petal structure individually. By moving the sleeve 2, the groove 41 on the sleeve 2 can be moved. During the movement of the groove 41, the corresponding flower branch body 31 will rotate, thereby realizing the opening and closing of each layer of flower branch body 31. This flower head structure that can open and close can realize the orderly and coordinated opening and closing of multiple layers of petals through the moving sleeve 2 as a single driving source, and has the advantages of simple structure, compactness and reliable operation.

[0018] It should be noted that during the movement of the aforementioned groove 41 with the sleeve 2, the side wall or bottom wall of the groove 41 (hereinafter referred to as the contact wall) will contact the corresponding flower branch 31, thereby causing the corresponding flower branch 31 to rotate. In this process, the timing of the rotation of each layer of flower branch 31 depends on the distance between it and the contact wall of the groove 41 in the initial state (when none of the grooves 41 have caused the flower branch 31 to rotate). Users can freely adjust the relative opening position of the grooves 41 to control the distance between the corresponding contact wall and the flower branch 31, thereby controlling the timing of the rotation of the flower branch 31 in each layer of flower branch 3. In this embodiment, the distance between the contact wall and the flower branch 31 decreases layer by layer along the direction of the flower branch 31 located at the end of the column 1. Therefore, the flower branch 31 located at the end of the column 1, as the inner petals, will preferentially close, and then the subsequent flower branches 31 will close layer by layer, thus showing the state of the flower gradually closing from the inside out. Conversely, when the sleeve 2 moves in the opposite direction, the other side wall of the groove 41, which is away from the initial contact wall, will push the flower branch 31 in sequence, thereby realizing the process of the simulated flower blooming layer by layer from the outside to the inside.

[0019] Specifically, in this embodiment, the flower branch 31 is provided with petals (not shown in the figure). The petals serve as simulations of real petals, and as the corresponding flower branch 31 rotates, they can realistically reproduce the opening and closing process of the petals.

[0020] Please refer to Figures 1-5 Preferably, in this embodiment, the flower branch 31 is a rod structure, with one end of the rod structure rotatably connected to the column 1 along the radial direction. The other end of the rod structure extends outward and is fitted with petals. The rod structure can rotate around the connection point with the column 1, thereby causing the petals to open and close.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 Specifically, in this embodiment, a rotating mechanism is provided between each of the above-mentioned flower branch 31 and the column 1. The rotating mechanism includes a rotating shaft 5, and a mounting groove 6 is provided on the side wall of the column 1. The rotating shaft 5 is rotatably disposed in the mounting groove 6 along the tangential direction of the column 1. One end of the flower branch 31 is perpendicularly connected to the rotating shaft 5, and the flower branch 31 can rotate freely with the rotating shaft 5.

[0022] The aforementioned rotating mechanism allows the flower stem 31 to rotate flexibly around the rotating shaft 5, thus achieving the opening and closing effect of the petals. The mounting groove 6 provides the flower stem 31 with corresponding rotation space, preventing the flower stem 31 from being affected by the column 1 during rotation, and also preventing the sleeve 2 from being blocked by the rotating mechanism during movement, thus affecting the stroke of the sleeve 2. The aforementioned rotating mechanism has a simple structure and rotates smoothly. The aforementioned rotating shaft 5 is set in the mounting groove 6 along the tangent direction of the column 1, so that it can remain perpendicular to the flower stem 31, making the entire flower head structure more compact and beautiful. During rotation, the flower stem 31 rotates under external force, which drives the rotating shaft 5 to rotate. Because the mounting groove 6 provides sufficient space, the rotation angle range of the flower stem 31 is within the reserved space when simulating the normal opening and closing of petals. In this way, the flower stem 31 can rotate effectively.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 Furthermore, each of the above-mentioned flower branch bodies 31 is provided with a stroke expansion groove 7. When the flower branch body 31 rotates to abut against its corresponding groove body 41, the edges of the groove body 41 can extend into the stroke expansion groove 7. The above-mentioned stroke expansion groove 7 actually further expands the rotation stroke range of the flower branch body 31 to avoid the influence of the column body 1 on the stroke of the flower branch body 31.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 Preferably, the groove 41 located at the end of the column 1 is a through groove structure facing the end of the column 1. In the actual simulation of flower opening and closing, the innermost flower branch 31 has the largest rotation angle and the smallest angle with the axis of the column 1 when it is closed. Therefore, the groove 41 in this part adopts a through groove structure, which can effectively increase the rotation stroke of the corresponding flower branch 31 and facilitate the flower branch 31 to rotate to the predetermined closing position.

[0025] It should be further explained that, for ease of installation, the sleeve 2 may include two petals joined together. These two petals are actually formed by cutting the sleeve 2 along its axial direction, thus facilitating the passage of the flower branch 31 through the corresponding groove 41. Alternatively, it may consist of multiple rings joined together along its axial direction to form the sleeve 2. Each corresponding groove 41 is divided into two segments by two adjacent rings. When two adjacent rings are joined together, they form a complete groove 41 at the joint.

[0026] In use, to simulate flower closing, the sleeve 2 is moved along the axial direction by an external force, causing the corresponding sidewall of the groove to rotate the corresponding flower branch 31, causing the flower branch 31 to close layer by layer. Because the mounting groove 6 has sufficient reserved space, the angle range of the flower branch 31 during normal opening and closing rotation is within the reserved space, allowing for effective rotation. When it is necessary to simulate flower unfolding, the sleeve 2 is moved in the opposite direction, causing the corresponding sidewall of the other groove to rotate the corresponding flower branch 31, causing the flower branch 31 to unfold layer by layer.

[0027] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the above-mentioned flower branch mechanism can be made of elastic material, such as TPU, and the flower branch body 31 and the connecting column 1 can be flexibly connected. In this way, the flower branch body 31 can rotate without setting the rotating shaft 5 and the mounting groove 6. Since the flower branch body 31 is an elastic material, it becomes a complete unit with the flower holder mechanism. During installation, the flower branch body 31 can be directly inserted through the corresponding groove 41. This not only facilitates manufacturing and installation, but also helps to reduce the overall volume and reduce costs.

[0028] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
