AI Technical Summary
Existing chemical fluorescent sticks with irregular shapes are difficult to stably break the internal glass ampoule when activated, and are also prone to puncture and leakage of the outer shell.
An auxiliary starting device was designed, including an upper handle and a lower handle. Through the cooperation of the protrusion and the concave part, the lever action is provided by the fulcrum structure to avoid direct bending by hand and to break the ampoule bottle by rotation and compression.
It enables easy initiation of chemiluminescence reactions, avoids glass piercing the outer shell, provides labor-saving operation, and is suitable for various glow stick shapes.

[0001] An auxiliary starting device for a chemical glow stick. Background Technology
[0002] The most common type of chemiluminescent stick is the thin, stick-shaped variety, although some irregularly shaped products also exist. These are typically binary reaction devices with an internal glass ampoule; the chemiluminescent reaction is initiated by bending the outer shell to break the ampoule. However, some small, thin-shelled, irregularly shaped chemiluminescent products, such as luminescent fingernails, are very small and have thin shells. Using the conventional bending method to activate them is difficult to handle and apply force, and bending them could cause internal glass shards to puncture the outer shell, leading to leakage.
[0003] This invention designs a device to assist in activating a glow stick. It can easily break the internal glass ampoule to activate and emit light without directly bending the glow stick by hand, and at the same time, it will not allow the broken glass inside to pierce the outer shell. Summary of the Invention
[0004] A glow stick auxiliary starting device is characterized in that: the starting device includes an upper handle 1 and a lower handle 2, wherein the upper handle 1 has a protrusion 4 and the lower handle 2 has a recess 5, and the upper handle 1 and the lower handle 2 are connected by a fulcrum 3.
[0005] The aforementioned glow stick auxiliary starting device is characterized in that: the protrusion 4 on the upper handle 1 is opposite to the position of the recess 5 on the lower handle 2.
[0006] The aforementioned fluorescent stick auxiliary starting device is characterized in that: the fulcrum 3 is connected by a bushing on the upper handle 1 and a shaft on the lower handle 2.
[0007] The aforementioned glow stick-assisted starting device is characterized in that: a gap 7 is provided between the protrusion 4 and the recess 5.
[0008] The aforementioned glow stick auxiliary starting device is characterized in that: the height of the gap 7 between the protrusion 4 and the recess 5 is 2-3 times the wall thickness of the glow stick shell.
[0009] The aforementioned glow stick-assisted starting device is characterized in that: the gap 7 between the protrusion 4 and the recess 5 has a height of 1-3mm.
[0010] When using the above-mentioned glow stick-assisted starting device, first place the glow stick 6 in the recess 5 of the lower handle 2, rotate the upper handle 1 so that the protrusion 4 squeezes the outer shell of the glow stick 6, causing the glass ampoule inside to break and the chemiluminescence device to start emitting light.

[0015] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of another type of glow stick-assisted starting device. Implementation
[0016] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the glow stick auxiliary starting device. In the figure, 1 is the upper handle and 2 is the lower handle. The upper handle 1 has a protrusion 4 and the lower handle 2 has a recess 5. The fulcrum 3 is connected by a bushing on the upper handle 1 and a shaft on the lower handle 2. The upper handle 1 and the lower handle 2 rotate around the shaft through the fulcrum 3, so that the protrusion 4 on the upper handle 1 and the recess 5 on the lower handle 2 are aligned.
[0017] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a nail-shaped glow stick. Figure 2 The glow stick 6 contains a glass ampoule and liquid, which is a typical binary chemical glow stick structure. It is placed in the recess 5 of the lower handle 2 of the above-mentioned glow stick auxiliary starting device, and the upper handle 1 is rotated to make the protrusion 4 of the upper handle 1 squeeze the glow stick. Figure 3 This is a cross-sectional view (AA) of the glow stick-assisted starting device in operation. 6 represents the glow stick, and it can be seen that the nail-shaped glow stick 6 is deformed by the protrusion 4 of the upper handle 1, breaking the internal glass ampoule and thus initiating the chemiluminescent reaction. Unlike bending a glow stick by hand, the crushing method makes it less likely for broken glass to pierce the glow stick's outer shell. Simultaneously, the device's fulcrum structure provides a lever structure that saves effort, making starting the glow stick much easier and less strenuous than simply bending it by hand.
[0018] Figure 4 This diagram illustrates the gap structure between the protrusion and recess of the glow stick auxiliary activating device. As shown, when the protrusion 4 on the upper handle 1 and the recess 5 on the lower handle 2 are aligned, without a glow stick placed between them, the top of the protrusion 4 and the bottom of the recess 5 do not contact each other, leaving a gap 7. The purpose of this gap 7 is to provide sufficient space for the glow stick after it is compressed, preventing excessive pressure from breaking its outer shell. In practice, a gap 7 height of 2-3 times the wall thickness of the glow stick shell is sufficient to achieve good protection against glass puncture. Specifically for the glow stick product "Light-up Nail," a gap 7 height of 1-3 mm between the protrusion 4 and the recess 5 is recommended.
[0019] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of another type of glow stick auxiliary starting device. Unlike the recess 5 in the previous embodiment, the direction of the recess 5 is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the handle 2. Both ends of this recess 5 are open, and the glow stick 6 can be freely adjusted when placed in it. It can be used to start glow sticks of more shapes or lengths.
[0020] It should be noted that the fulcrum 3 or the upper and lower handles can be configured in various ways as described in the above embodiments. For example, the upper and lower handles can extend forward through the fulcrum to make the device resemble pliers, while the concave and convex portions are also moved to the front end. Besides the shaft and bushing configuration, the fulcrum 3 can also be configured as a bayonet with movable limits, among other methods. None of these solutions depart from the design principles of this utility model application. The above embodiments are merely illustrative and do not limit the scope of this invention. Similar solutions can achieve the purpose of easily activating the glow stick, and all are within the protection scope of this application.
