The specific embodiment
Next referring to accompanying drawing, its displaying has the solar powered flashlight 10 of preferred form of the present invention.Described flashlight 10 has shell 11, and described shell 11 has first 12 and is coupled to the second portion 13 of first 12 by double-strand chain 16 pivots.
Described first 12 has front side 17 and the rear side 18 relative with described front side 17.Described front side 17 comprises solar cell 19 and on/off button 20, and described button 20 is coupled to the circuit 21 that underlies that comprises on/off switch 22.
Described second portion 13 also has front side 25 and the rear side 26 relative with described front side 25.Described front side 25 comprises the light source that is two LED type lamp 27 forms.Described second portion 13 also contains rechargeable battery 28, and it is coupled to solar cell 19 by circuit 21.Described circuit 21 has conventional design, and control battery 28 recharge startup with lamp 27.
Second group of pillar 32 that described double-strand chain 16 comprises first group of pillar 31 extending from first 12, extend from second portion 13 and connector 33.Described connector 33 has and is configured to pivot and admits the first passage 34 of described first group of pillar 31 and be configured to the second channel 35 that pivot is admitted described second group of pillar 32.
In use, first 12 can be with respect to second portion 13 location, so that first front side 17 covers the second portion front side, as shown in Figure 3.Along with flashlight 10 has this configuration, solar cell 19 is by second portion 13 protections.
Second portion 13 can further move to vertical position with respect to first 12, as shown in Figure 4.Along with second portion is arranged in this position, flashlight can rest on the horizontal support structure, and simultaneously by lamp 27 illumination adjacent domains.
Second portion 13 can further move to horizontal level with respect to first 12, wherein said first and second parts both towards equidirectional, and rest on the horizontal support structure, as shown in Figure 5.Surround lighting is arrived with the solar cell maximum exposure in this position.
Second portion 13 can further move to upright position substantially with respect to first 12.Flashlight can rest on the stayed surface subsequently, wherein lamp towards the outside and solar cell towards the outside, as shown in Figure 6.This angle that has realized lamp presents.
At last, second portion 13 can further move to a position, and wherein solar cell 19 is towards the direction opposite with lamp 27, as shown in Figure 7.
Although showed described flashlight, should be appreciated that described hinge provides a large amount of centre positions between those positions of clearly showing with the configuration of firm statement.
In a preferred embodiment, finish these a plurality of location of described two parts 12 and 13 by the hinge with two different hinges, promptly first pillar 31 provides a hinge and second pillar 32 provides second hinge that is parallel to described first hinge substantially.It should be noted that term " substantially " means herein comprises two hinges of almost parallel each other, and and do not mean that and be limited to completely parallel those hinges of hinge because the manufacturing tolerance of plastic assembly etc. is not accurate always.
Therefore can see that a kind of solar powered flashlight is provided now, and it overcomes the problem that is associated with prior art.Although specificly describe the present invention in detail with reference to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, but should be appreciated that except those of clear and definite statement, under situation about not departing from, also can make multiple modification, interpolation and deletion the present invention as the spirit and scope of the invention of appended claims statement.
