Description

A nail curing lamp Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of nail art equipment, specifically to a nail curing lamp. Background Technology

[0002] While nail polish curing lamps on the market can be made very small and flexible, they still rely on LED lamps or UV LEDs that emit ultraviolet light. Prolonged use of these lamps can damage the skin of both the operator and the client, causing skin darkening and increasing the risk of cancer. This is especially true for the fleshy part around the nail. To make them easier to manufacture and use, curing lamps are often designed with a circular irradiation area larger than the actual nail size to accommodate different finger widths. Even with more concentrated curing lamps, the lamp is simply moved and aligned on the finger without fixing it in place. Operators typically rely on their naked eye to ensure the UV light reaches the nail, sometimes directly irradiating the fleshy part around the nail. Over time, this can easily cause skin damage. However, nail art can be divided into two types: full-body wearable nail art and individual assembly nail art. Regardless of the type, it only requires curing with a curing lamp to cure the nail art within the nail area. Full-body wearable nail art can be relatively fixed by being attached to the nail, while individual assembly nail art usually has each decoration within the nail area. Therefore, after fixing the finger, the curing lamp setting only needs to be adapted to the shape and area of ​​the nail, and its illumination range can actually be slightly smaller than the area of ​​the nail. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a nail curing lamp. This invention utilizes visible light LED beads to convert ultraviolet light into a nail-specific curing lamp, relatively reducing the damage of ultraviolet rays to the skin. Simultaneously, the combination of the base and the outer shell fixes the finger position, maximizing the light's illumination on the nail and avoiding direct irradiation of the surrounding nail tissue, thus avoiding the side effects of nail curing lamps.

[0004] The present invention discloses a nail curing lamp, comprising a housing and a curing lamp disposed on the inner side of the top of the housing, and a base. A partition is provided below the curing lamp, with an opening in the center of the partition and a visible light LED bead positioned corresponding to the curing lamp. Several heat dissipation plates are respectively arranged around the visible light LED bead on the partition. A funnel-shaped light reflector is provided below the partition, extending downwards from the visible light LED bead and gradually increasing in width. The bottom shape of the light reflector is adapted to the shape of a nail. A movable plate that can slide up and down is provided on the outer side of the base, and a notch is formed between the base and the movable plate at a position corresponding to the plane of the light reflector. The movable plate slides upwards and engages with the housing, thereby allowing the housing and base to cooperate and clamp the finger. The base is recessed downwards to form an elastic layer adapted to the finger.

[0005] In one embodiment, the inner side of the movable plate is provided with a groove, and the groove is located on both sides of the notch, and the outer side of the outer shell is provided with a protrusion that matches the groove.

[0006] In one embodiment, the bottom of the light reflector is flush with the bottom surface of the housing, and the bottom edge of the housing extends downward to form an observation section, which is made of a transparent material and corresponds to the movable plate.

[0007] In one embodiment, the base has a protruding edge on the inner side corresponding to the observation part, and the protruding edge cooperates with the movable plate to form a positioning groove that is adapted to the observation part.

[0008] In one embodiment, an opening is formed on the top side of the active plate opposite to the notch and is adapted to the thickness of the nail.

[0009] In one embodiment, a power switch, a time setting button, and a control display panel are respectively provided on the top side of the housing, and the power switch, the time setting button, and the control display panel are all electrically connected to the power supply and the curing lamp, respectively.

[0010] In one embodiment, the visible light LED is a surface-mount LED or a COB packaged LED.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the technical solution of the present invention are:

[0012] This invention utilizes visible light LED beads to convert ultraviolet rays into a nail curing lamp, which relatively reduces the damage of ultraviolet rays to the skin. At the same time, the combination of the base and the outer shell can fix the position of the fingers. Due to the limitation of the light reflector, the light is relatively reduced and concentrated, allowing the nail to be aligned by touching the nail with the light reflector. This maximizes the light shining on the nail and avoids direct irradiation of the nail flesh near the nail, thereby avoiding the side effects of nail curing lamps. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0016] The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this patent. To better illustrate this embodiment, some components in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced, and do not represent the actual dimensions of the product. It is understandable to those skilled in the art that some well-known structures and their descriptions may be omitted in the drawings.

[0017] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances. The technical solution of this invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, a nail curing lamp of the present invention includes a housing 1 and a curing lamp 2 disposed on the inner side of the top of the housing 1, and a base 3. A partition 4 is provided below the curing lamp 2. The partition 4 has an opening in the middle and a visible light lamp bead 5 is provided. The position of the visible light lamp bead 5 corresponds to that of the curing lamp 2. A plurality of heat dissipation plates 6 are provided on the partition 4 around the visible light lamp bead 5. A funnel-shaped light reflector 7 is provided below the partition 4. The light reflector 7 extends downward from the visible light lamp bead 5 and its width gradually increases. The bottom shape of the light reflector 7 is adapted to the shape of the nail. A movable plate 8 that can slide up and down is provided on the outer side of the base 3. The base 3 and the movable plate 8 form a notch at the position corresponding to the plane of the light reflector 7. The movable plate 8 slides upward and fits into the housing 1, so that the housing 1 and the base 3 cooperate with each other and clamp the finger. The base 3 is recessed downward and forms an elastic layer 9 adapted to the finger. This invention utilizes visible light LED beads 5 to convert ultraviolet light into a nail curing lamp, which relatively reduces the damage of ultraviolet light to the skin. At the same time, the combination of the base 3 and the outer shell 1 can fix the position of the fingers. Due to the limitation of the light reflector 7, the light is relatively reduced and concentrated, allowing the nail to be aligned by touching the nail with the light reflector 7. This maximizes the light shining on the nail and avoids direct irradiation of the nail flesh near the nail, thereby avoiding the side effects of nail curing lamps.

[0019] During use, the operator places their finger on the base 3, then covers the nail with the outer shell 1, ensuring the edge of the outer shell 1 aligns with the base 3 and that the light reflector 7 frames the nail area to prevent the nail flesh from being irradiated. The sliding plate 8 then secures the outer shell 1, clamping the finger between the outer shell 1 and the base 3. The curing lamp 2 can then be activated, irradiating only the nail area. The heat sink 6 provides heat dissipation, extending the lifespan of the product. The curing lamp 2, having passed through visible light beads 5 before curing the nail art, primarily uses blue-violet light to irradiate the nail, resulting in lower UV content and significantly reducing damage to the fingers. Alternatively, only the outer shell 1 can be used for curing; similarly, the edge of the light reflector 7 on the nail surface can be used to ensure the curing lamp 2 irradiates only the nail area.

[0020] Furthermore, the movable plate 8 has a groove 10 on its inner side, and the groove 10 is located on both sides of the notch. The outer side of the outer shell 1 has a protrusion 11 that matches the groove 10. The movable plate 8 is used to further connect the base 3 and the outer shell 1 after the base 3 and the outer shell 1 are positioned with the finger, so that the two clamp the finger, which is not easy to shift and avoids the finger flesh from being exposed. Therefore, the movable plate 8 can slide up and down along the base 3 and fit around the edge of the outer shell 1. Through the cooperation of the groove 10 and the protrusion 11, its position is relatively fixed. The bottom of the light reflector 7 is flush with the bottom surface of the outer shell 1, facilitating the independent use of the outer shell 1. The area illuminated by the curing lamp 2 is defined by the fingernail touching the edge of the light reflector 7. The bottom edge of the outer shell 1 extends downwards to form an observation section 12, made of transparent material and corresponding to the movable plate 8. The observation section 12 essentially serves as the bottom edge of the outer shell 1, wrapping around the outside of the finger and extending downwards to contact and position itself with the base 3. The transparent observation section 12 allows the user to ensure that the light range limited by the light reflector 7 is within the fingernail's area. Simultaneously, when the outer shell 1 and base 3 are engaged, the movable plate 8 completely blocks the observation section 12, preventing light from the curing lamp 2 from spilling out. Furthermore, the base 3 has a raised edge corresponding to the inner side of the observation section 12, which, together with the movable plate 8, forms a positioning groove 13 that fits the observation section 12. The observation section 12 also provides positioning for the engagement of the outer shell 1 and base 3. Inserting the observation section 12 into the positioning groove 13 allows the outer shell 1 and base 3 to maintain their relative positions even before the movable plate 8 is fitted onto the outer shell 1.

[0021] In addition, an opening is formed on the top of the side opposite to the notch on the active plate 8 and is adapted to the thickness of the nail so that when the nail is long or a long manicure is worn, it can protrude from the opening. The curing lamp 2 mainly cures the part where the manicure and the nail are joined.

[0022] In one embodiment, a power switch, a time setting button, and a control display panel are respectively provided on the top side of the outer casing 1. The power switch, time setting button, and control display panel are all electrically connected to the power supply and the curing lamp 2, respectively. After ensuring that the device is worn stably and accurately, the user turns on the power switch and sets the time, mode, etc., to perform nail art curing. The visible light lamp bead 5 is a surface-mount LED or a COB packaged lamp bead, which can work with the curing lamp 2 to transmit blue-violet light to form a curing light specifically for nail art.
