FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the decorative article according to the third embodiment of the present invention taken along line AB in FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] Examples of the present invention will be described below.

[0010] Example 1 As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, an LED (light-emitting diode) element 2 and a battery 3 (lithium button battery) are placed in a battery box 18. The element 2 is provided with an anode lead terminal 10 and a cathode lead terminal 11. The anode 3a of the battery 3 contacts the bent portion 10a of the anode lead terminal 10, and the cathode lead terminal 11 contacts the cathode 3b of the battery. Both ends of a piano wire 5 serving as a spring are held in contact with the inner wall surface of the battery box 18, and its center is fixed to an insulating plate 4. The anode lead terminal 10 is fixed to one main surface of the insulating plate 4, and the other main surface of the insulating plate 4 is slidably held on the surface of the cathode 3b of the battery. A circular annular suspension part 14 is provided at the upper end of the insulating plate 4. A pressure contact body 17 to which the element 2 is pressed is provided within the battery box 18, and this pressure contact force presses and maintains contact between the cathode lead terminal 11 and the cathode 3b of the battery.

[0011] When hanging as shown in Figures 2 and 3, the battery 4 descends due to the gravity of the battery 3, and the bent portion 10a of the anode lead terminal 10 fixed to the insulating plate 4 comes into contact with the anode 3a of the battery, so that the anode lead terminal 10 and the anode 3a of the battery are in electrically conductive contact (ON), and the cathode lead terminal 11 and the cathode 3 of the battery are held slidably and in contact, and the LED element 2 lights up. The piano wire 5 is suspended from the insulating plate 4 and is pulled upward in a bow shape as shown by the solid line 5 in Figures 2 and 3. Next, when the battery is not suspended (when the accessories are removed and the battery is not in use, for example, when the battery is placed on a stand and resting under gravity), the spring attraction (restoring force) of the piano wire 5 acts in the opposite direction, moving it to the position shown by the dashed line 5b. This causes the insulating plate 4 to move in the opposite direction, causing the bent portion 10a of the anode lead terminal 10 fixed to it to separate from the anode 3a of the battery, resulting in a non-conductive state and an OFF state. The spring body of the piano wire 5 is designed to be lifted by the restoring force when in use and to return to its original position by the restoring force when not in use.

[0012] Also, as shown in FIG. 5, instead of the piano wire 5, it is possible to fix the end of another piano wire 6 to the inner wall surface of the battery box 18, provide a loop 13 for inserting the piano wire into the insulating plate 4, and pass the piano wire through this to perform the same function as the piano wire in FIGS. 2 and 3. FIG. 2 is a side cross-sectional view of A-B in FIG. 1, and the present invention insulates both terminals 10 and 11 of the light emitting element 2. The terminal anode 10 is attached to the board 4 so that the lower end of the anode 10 can flexibly contact the cathode 3a of the battery. A 0.1 mm piano wire 5a was attached to the tip of the anode. In the battery box having the light shielding portion 16 on the surface, the light from the light emitting element 2 is transmitted through the cut 8 of the light transmitting portion. This decorative element can be used to create the heart shape shown in Figure 1 or various initials in a soft, light-filled manner using pointillism. Figure 3 is an internal view seen in the direction of arrows A and B in Figure 1, showing the terminal anode 10 attached to the insulating board 4. The wire was fixed and the end of the terminal anode 10 was L-shaped to facilitate contact with the battery anode 3a during use.

[0013] Example 2 In Figure 6, a conductive plate 9 and a pressure contact portion 17 are provided in the battery box 18. When in use, the light-emitting element 2 terminal anode is fixed to the insulating plate. When in use, the terminal cathode 11 and the battery cathode 3b come into contact with each other by the pressure contact portion, and the battery is turned on. The piano wire 5 is the same as in Figure 5, and the lower piano wire insertion ring 13 is inserted into the insulating plate. and functions like the piano wires 6a and 6b, and does not need to be used at the same time as the piano wire 5.

[0014] Example 3 FIG. 7 shows a chip element 2a used instead of the light emitting element 2, in which the chip cathode 11a and the cathode of the battery The anode 2b of the chip is in constant contact with the anode terminal 10, which penetrates the insulating plate 4 and makes contact with the anode 2b of the chip. The embodiment of FIG. 7 can be made thin because it uses a chip-type element, and the chip mounted on the insulating plate 4 is light, making it easy to turn on and off. [Explanation of symbols]
