[Embodiment of device]

 Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, the small blinking light emitting unit U includes a thin plate-shaped substrate 10 made of a transparent circular substrate having a thickness of about 1 mm and a diameter of about 26 mm. The base body 10 has a rigidity such that it is not easily bent by an external force, and the thickness of the base body 10 can obtain this rigidity, and the weight can be suppressed. For example, when the base body 10 is incorporated into a garment, the garment can be worn. It is set so that the person does not feel uncomfortable. A double-sided adhesive tape 11 for adhering the substrate to the back surface of the clothing is attached to the entire surface of the substrate 10.

Referring also to FIG. 2, one vertically elongated small light bulb 12 as a small light emitting member is installed at the center of the surface of the substrate 10. When the base 10 is bonded to the back surface of the object, the small light bulb 12 penetrates the object and is exposed on the surface of the object. By flashing the exposed small light bulb 12, it is possible to enhance the decorativeness of the object and the visibility at night.

Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, on the back surface of base body 10, a pair of conductor-made battery housing members 13 for housing small batteries (not shown) such as button batteries are provided. These battery housing members 13 allow the small batteries to be taken in and out through the movement of the small batteries along the back surface of the base body 10.

Electric power is supplied from the small battery housed in the battery housing member 13 toward the small light bulb 12. The power supply to the small light bulb 12 is controlled by a control IC 15 provided on the back surface of the base body 10 and a switching operation is input by the switch member 14. The control IC 15 is covered with a mountain rubber rubber 16 in order to prevent external contact. The function of the control IC 15 causes the small light bulb 12 to blink when it is turned on.

A metal thin film 17 for electrically connecting the small light bulb 12, the battery housing member 13, the control IC 15, and the switch member 14 is formed on the back surface of the base body 10, as is particularly clear from FIG. The metal thin film 17 is for a pair of positive terminals 17a that contacts the positive electrode of the small battery housed in the battery housing member 13 and for a pair of four negative electrodes connected to the negative electrode of the small battery through the battery housing member 13 in the same manner. And a terminal 17b. The metal thin film 17 connects the two small batteries to be mounted in series with each other. The metal thin film 17 further configures a circular first switch terminal 17c and a second switch terminal 17d surrounding the first switch terminal 17c. The positive electrode side connection terminal of the small battery array is connected to the positive electrode terminal of the small light bulb 12 and the control IC 15, while the negative electrode side connection terminal is connected to the control IC 15 and the first switch terminal 17c. The second switch terminal 17d is connected to the control IC 15, and the control IC 15 is further connected to the negative electrode terminal of the small bulb 12. As shown in FIG. 3, the positive and negative terminals of the small light bulb 12 are fixed to the metal thin film 17 by solders 18 and 19.

As is clear from FIG. 5, the battery housing member 13 is obtained by bending a conductive flat plate member. Based on the flat plate member, a flat plate portion 13a that faces the positive electrode terminal 17a and covers the small battery that is housed and sandwiches the small battery with the positive electrode terminal 17a, and extends from the left and right sides of the flat plate portion 13a. , A pair of leg portions 13b that are bent in a direction orthogonal to the flat plate portion 13a and support the flat plate portion 13a on the base body 10 are integrally formed. A fixing projection 13c that enters the fixing hole 20 (see FIG. 4) of the base body 10 is integrally formed at the tip of each leg 13b, and each fixing projection 13c enters the fixing hole 20 while The legs 13b are soldered to the negative electrode terminals 17b.

A restricting piece 13d for restricting entry of a small battery is integrally formed on the periphery of the flat plate portion 13a. When the restriction piece 13d is bent in a direction orthogonal to the flat plate portion 13a (see FIG. 2), it is possible to prevent excessive entry of the small battery, that is, passage of the small battery. A biasing piece 13e for biasing the small battery toward the positive electrode terminal 17a when the small battery is housed is cut out near the center of the flat plate portion 13a. When the biasing piece 13e is bent toward the small battery, the elasticity of the flat plate member exerts a pressing force against the small battery. The small battery is held at an appropriate position by the action of both 13d and 13e.

Referring to FIG. 6, the switch member 14 is formed by punching out a thin plate-shaped metal material. The switch member 14 includes a flat plate portion 14a facing the first switch terminal 17c, and three constant contacts 14b formed integrally with the flat plate portion 14a and constantly contacting the second switch terminal 17d. The pair of fixing legs 14c extending from the tips of the two constant contact points 14b penetrate the fixing holes 22 (see also FIG. 4) of the base 10 and are then bent and engaged with the base 10.

The flat plate portion 14a of the switch member 14 is curved in a direction away from the first switch terminal 17c. In order to form this curve, depressions 23 are formed at the three corners of the flat plate portion 14a. At the center of the flat plate portion 14a, a momentary contact 14d that is momentarily contacted with the first switch terminal 17c is formed by the depression deformation. Although the flat plate portion 14a is normally bent and the instantaneous contact 14d is separated from the first switch terminal 17c, when the flat plate portion 14a is deformed in the opposite direction by the pressing force from the outside, the instantaneous contact 14d becomes It contacts the first switch terminal 17c. Elasticity is accumulated by this deformation, and the flat plate portion 14a returns to the original curved state at the moment when the pressing force is released.

Next, the operation of the present invention will be described. First, the small battery is set in the battery housing member 13 while sliding the small battery along the back surface of the substrate 10. Since the battery housing member 13 is open toward the peripheral edge of the base body 10, a small battery can be smoothly set in the battery housing member 13. In this state, the small flashing light emitting unit U is adhered to the back surface of the object using the double-sided adhesive tape 11 on the front surface of the substrate 10. At this time, a light bulb hole for exposing the small light bulb 12 is provided in the object. The small blinking light emitting unit U can be attached to a hat 30 or a T-shirt 31 as shown in FIG. 7, or as shown in FIG. 8, a small flashing light emission can be made on a circular metal plate 32 having an engaging piece 32a. The unit U can be attached and used as the piercing 33, the earring 34, the brooch 35, and the neckless 36. Besides, it can be applied to a metal or plastic bag (not shown). Furthermore, a paper poster (not shown) as an advertising tool, a swing pop made of, for example, a PP (polypropylene) sheet (see FIG. 9 (a)), a banner made of cloth or a vinyl sheet (see FIG. 9 (b)). )), For example, attached to a continuous flag made of cloth or PP sheet (see FIG. 9 (c)) to help attract attention to these advertising tools. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 10, it can be attached to a fan and used. For example, as shown in FIG. 10 (a), it may be directly adhered to the paper flat surface of the fan, and as shown in FIG. 10 (b), a receiving recess is formed in a part of the resin fan fan. Alternatively, the small light bulb 12, the control IC 15, or the like may be dropped into the receiving recess to bond the periphery of the substrate 10.

When it is desired to blink the small light bulb 12, a pressing force is applied to the switch member 14. Then, the control IC 15 enters the operating state, and the small light bulb 12 starts blinking.

For example, consider a case where the switching operation of the control IC 15 is performed using the switching circuit shown in FIG. The switching signal SWITCH of the power supply voltage V0 is always output from this switching circuit. Now, when the momentary contact 14d momentarily establishes conduction with the first switch terminal 17c by the action of the pressing force, the voltage escapes to the ground through the switch member 14, and as shown in FIG. At the same time, the voltage v drops. This decrease of the voltage v is supplied to the toggle circuit shown in FIG. 12 as the switch signal SWITCH.

The toggle circuit is composed of a falling edge trigger type flip-flop FF, and inverts the Q output TO UT every time the switch signal SWITCH is input to the clock input CLK. As a result, when the switch signal SWITCH falls due to the first momentary conduction of the switch member 14, the control IC 15 is turned on, and when the switch signal SWITCH falls again due to the second momentary conduction that follows the first momentary conduction, the control IC 15 becomes Turned off.

In the control IC 15, the small light bulb 12 can be made to blink by the oscillation circuit shown in FIG. 13, for example. This oscillator circuit includes a Schmitt trigger type NAND element 37. In the NAND element 37, the above-mentioned Q output TOUT is input to one input, and the output of the NAND is input to the other input through a resistor. Both inputs generate an output that repeats inversion, and the output is supplied to the lighting control transistor 38 of the small light bulb 12. In this way, the small light bulb 12 is made to blink. Note that, as long as the same switching operation and blinking operation can be achieved and the IC chip can be configured as a small IC chip, other configurations can be used for these switching circuits and oscillation circuits. .

In the above embodiment, the case where the base 10 is directly adhered to the clothing through the double-sided adhesive tape was considered, but a vinyl containing member is sewn on the back surface of the clothing such as a hat or a T-shirt, and the containing member is The small blinking light emitting unit U may be housed in the. The storage member 40 is configured, for example, in a bag shape in which a front side vinyl material (see FIG. 14) and a back side vinyl material (see FIG. 15) are bonded together. The size of the housing member 40 is set so that the small flashing light emitting unit U is completely covered.

The housing member 40 is provided with a loading / unloading opening 41 for allowing the small flashing light emitting unit U to be loaded and unloaded, and a light emitting member hole 42 through which the small light bulb 12 is projected. Further, the storage member 40 is formed with a pocket hole 43 that allows access to the battery storage member 14 with the base body 10 stored therein. As is apparent from FIG. 15, the pocket hole 43 is formed by a notch extending in an arc shape and can open a substantially semicircular opening.
