Description

Electronic candles simulate candle flame structure

The invention relates to an electronic candle, in particular to an electronic candle which, after being lit, produces a visual sense of a candle core in a simulated candle flame, so that the electronic candle has a more realistic effect in use.

Candles produce lighting effects through the burning of candle wicks, but because they use open flames, they can ignite surrounding objects and cause accidents such as fires. Therefore, in recent years, electronic candles have been introduced, which simulate the state of candle burning through light projection. Electronic candles are reusable and do not produce smoke. Since they do not use open flames, they can avoid accidents such as fires.

As shown in the new patent No. M474857 "Electronic Candle", the known electronic candle has a hollow shell, a movable reflector set, a circuit board and an LED lamp. The hollow shell has an upper opening and a bottom surface opposite to the upper opening. The movable reflector set has a suspension rod and a reflector, wherein the two ends of the suspension rod are connected to the inner wall surface of the hollow shell. The reflector is suspended on the suspension rod and has a reflective end protruding from the upper opening and a magnetic induction end opposite to the reflective end. A coil is arranged on the circuit board, and the coil generates a temporally variable magnetic field. The LED lamp is electrically connected to the circuit board, and the light-emitting surface of the LED lamp faces the reflective end. When the electronic candle of the invention is in operation, the magnetic sensing end will be pushed by the time-varying magnetic field, causing the reflective sheet to sway to simulate the swaying effect of a candle flame.

However, the reflective sheet disclosed in the above-mentioned new patent No. M474957 is a pure white reflective sheet. Although it can reflect the LED light source to produce the effect of flame, when the candle is burning, the bottom of the flame is ignited upward from the periphery of the wick. The conventional electronic candle simply reflects the LED light source and cannot simulate the effect of the flame being ignited upward from the wick. Therefore, it is impossible to achieve the state of simulating the burning of a real candle, and it is obvious that there is a need for improvement.

In view of this, the inventor of the present invention has conducted research and innovation to reveal the simulated candle flame structure of the electronic candle shown in the present invention.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a simulated candle flame structure of an electronic candle, wherein the electronic candle comprises a candle body, a simulated candle flame board at the top of the candle body, and a light-emitting element is installed in the candle body, so that the light-emitting element projects light onto the simulated candle flame board and then reflects, so as to simulate the state of a burning candle; wherein a candle wick flame pattern is provided on the board surface of the simulated candle flame board, and the candle wick flame pattern is directly printed, painted on the simulated candle flame board or pasted on the simulated candle flame board.

The electronic candle simulated candle flame structure disclosed by the present invention has a flame gradient area around the simulated candle plate, and the flame gradient area gradually becomes lighter and brighter from the periphery to the center.

The simulated candle flame structure of the electronic candle disclosed in the present invention, wherein the flame gradient area and the candle core flame pattern are printed on a sticker and then pasted on the simulated candle flame board.

The simulated candle flame structure of the electronic candle disclosed in the present invention, wherein the flame gradient area and the candle core flame pattern are directly printed or painted on the simulated candle flame board.

The preferred embodiments disclosed in this invention can be clearly understood from the following description and drawings.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 , the present invention relates to a simulated candle flame structure of an electronic candle. The electronic candle comprises a candle body (10), a simulated candle flame plate (11) is disposed at the top of the candle body (10), and a light emitting element (12) is installed in the candle body (10). The light emitting element (12) projects light onto the simulated candle flame plate (11) and then reflects the light to simulate the state of a burning candle. The above structure is a known structure generally used in electronic candles (as shown in the new patent No. M474957 of our country), and is not the subject of the patent application of the present invention, so it will not be described in detail.

The simulated candle flame structure of the electronic candle disclosed in the present invention is characterized in that a candle wick flame pattern (20) is provided on the surface of the simulated candle flame plate (11). The candle wick flame pattern (20) can be directly printed or painted on the simulated candle flame plate (11) or printed on a sticker and then pasted on the simulated candle flame plate (11). The present invention is not limited to the method of attaching the candle wick flame pattern (20) to the simulated candle flame plate (11).

The electronic candle simulation candle structure disclosed in the present invention further comprises a flame gradient area (30) around the simulation candle plate (11), and the flame gradient area (30) gradually becomes lighter and brighter from the periphery of the simulation candle plate (11) toward the center. The flame gradient area (30) can be a gradient color from red to white or bright yellow toward the center, or a gradient color from orange to white or bright yellow toward the center, but the present invention is not limited to this.

The simulated candle structure of the electronic candle disclosed in the present invention, wherein the flame gradient area (30) and the candle wick flame pattern (20) can be printed on a sticker and then pasted on the simulated candle plate (11) as shown in FIG. 4; or, the flame gradient area (30) and the candle wick flame pattern (20) can be directly printed or painted on the simulated candle plate (11), and the present invention is not limited to this.

As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the simulated candle flame structure of the electronic candle disclosed by the present invention, wherein the candle core flame pattern (20) gradually becomes lighter and brighter in color from the bottom to the top. The candle core flame pattern (20) can be black or brown and gradually become white or bright yellow upwards to present the appearance of a real candle core burning.

The simulated candle flame structure of the electronic candle disclosed in the present invention, wherein the simulated candle flame plate (11) is a curved plate body, so that the light source can be focused toward the center; or the simulated candle flame plate (11) is a flat plate body, and the present invention is not limited to this.

As shown in Figures 2 and 3, when a light source is directed to the simulated candle flame board (11) disclosed in the present invention, the candle wick flame pattern (20) will be highlighted. In addition, the flame gradient area (30) outside the candle wick flame pattern (20) will also be darker at the periphery than at the center, thus creating an appearance similar to that of a real candle burning. Please refer to Attachment 1 for a reference diagram of the application status of currently known electronic candles. It is known that electronic candles use pure white as their simulated candle flame board, which can only display a flame without a "candle wick". Please refer to Attachment 2 for a reference diagram of the application status of the present invention. When the present invention projects a light source onto the simulated candle flame board, the light source will highlight the candle wick flame. The pattern (20) and the flame gradient area (30) outside the candle core flame pattern (20) will also make the periphery of the simulated candle flame plate darker than the center, thereby producing an appearance similar to that of a real candle burning, so that the electronic candle used in the present invention can better simulate the state of a real candle burning, thereby showing the novelty and superiority of the present invention.

The structure and shape disclosed in the present invention can be modified and applied without violating the spirit and scope of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned implementation methods.
