Description

Technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to an electronic, portable lighting and fog device, in particular for use at events, sporting events and similar occasions where optical and atmospheric effects are to be created. State of the art

[0002] Well-known pyrotechnic signaling devices, or flares, produce light and smoke effects through chemical reactions. However, these solutions are problematic from a safety and environmental perspective, as they generate high temperatures, can cause burns, and leave residues. While electronic alternatives exist, they are often either too weak or not mobile enough to achieve a similar effect to conventional flares. Object of the invention

[0003] The invention aims to provide a safe, reusable and environmentally friendly lighting and fog device that can be operated without an open flame and yet produces an intense visual effect. Solution to the task

[0004] This task is accomplished by an electronic, portable device that combines an LED light unit and a fog generation unit in a single housing. The device includes a fog outlet (1), an LED unit (2), a fog fluid reservoir (3), a rechargeable battery (4), a control button (5), and a charging port (6). Activating the control button allows the LED unit and the fog function to be operated simultaneously or separately. This enables the user to select between light only, fog only, or a combined light and fog effect. Brief description of the drawings Fig. Figure 1 shows a schematic representation of the electronic stadium lighting and fog system. Fig. Figure 2 shows a more realistic embodiment with a rounded housing and identical functional components. Example of implementation

[0005] In Fig. Figure 1 shows the basic arrangement of the components. The fog outlet (1) is located at the top of the housing. Below it is the LED unit (2), which emits the light outwards. Below the LED unit is the reservoir (3) for the fog fluid, which may be connected to a small electric heating element. Below that is the battery (4), which powers both the LED unit (2) and the fog generator. The control button (5) is located on the side of the housing and is used to activate the functions. The charging port (6), through which the battery can be recharged, is located on the bottom. Fig. Figure 2 shows an embodiment with a rounded design that allows for ergonomic handling. The functional elements correspond to those of the Fig. 1. Reference symbol list 1 fog outlet 2 LED units 3 Tanks for fog fluid 4 batteries 5 control knob 6 Charging ports (USB-C)

Claims

[1] Electronic portable effects device (“Electronic Stadium Bengal”) for producing combined light and fog effects, comprising a housing, a rechargeable battery, a color-changing LED light source and an integrated fog system with tank and outlet.
