Fig. 2 is the decomposition diagram of the driver element of Fig. 1 ornament;
Fig. 3 is the perspective view that the part of the driver element of Fig. 2 disconnects;
Fig. 4 is the perspective view of second embodiment of ornament according to the present invention; The figure shows its use on Christmas tree;
Fig. 5 is driver element of Fig. 4 ornament and the decomposition diagram that power provides the unit;
Fig. 6 is the driver element of Fig. 5 and the perspective view that power provides the unit.
At first referring to Fig. 1 to Fig. 3, shown here first ornament 10 concrete manifestations the present invention, this ornament 10 is to be made of 12 of the selene product that a driver element 11 and hang downwards from the driver element 11.
Driver element 11 comprises that the plastic casing 13 of box like of a bottom opening and one are used for the plastic bottom cover 14 of closure casing 13.An inverted pallet 15 is arranged on the inside of housing 13, wherein is fixed with a solar panel 16 in pallet 15 again.On a side of housing 13, the wall of housing 13 and pallet 15 has the hole 17 of a pair of adjusting to a line, and hole 17 just in time is positioned at the bottom of solar panel 16.Pallet 15 is closed by a following horizontal installing plate 18, at DC electric notor 19 of installing plate 18 upper supports, motor 19 is wired on the solar panel 16, and motor 19 has a driving shaft 20 and is passed down through 18, one pinions 21 of installing plate and is fixedly mounted on the motor drive shaft 20.
As shown in Figure 1, ornament 10 is will be used on the Christmas tree, and this Christmas tree is supporting lighting bulb 9 on a series of Christmas.Drive unit 11 is packaged into a similar gift box, hanging downwards on its branch by Christmas tree, and hook gear 23 down and supporting selene product 12.
17 li in the hole of adjacent lighting bulb 9 ' be inserted into adjusting to a line, and be packed near on the position of solar panel 16 by spring clip 25.
When Christmas tree lighting bulb 9 and particularly lighting bulb 9 ' connection, solar panel 16 produces also and provides electric power to motor 19, by pinion 21 and gear train 22 hook gear 23 is rotated successively, selene product 12 so and be rotated.
Now referring to Fig. 4 to Fig. 6, concrete manifestation second ornament 30 of the present invention is shown here, and this ornament 30 is that the power that the selene product 32 that hung downwards from the driver element 31 by a driver element 31 and one and usefulness are wired to driver element 31 provides unit 33 to be constituted.
Power provides unit 33 to have a flat rectangular plastic housing 42, and this housing 42 is made of the pedestal 42B of a similar pallet and a transparent cap 42A, and is fixed with a solar panel 43 within it.On the end of pedestal 42B, the anchor clamps 44 that to be provided with an integral body be U-shaped, when lid 42A put well, just in time on a horizontal plane on the lid 42A, the rear portion of pedestal 42B (bottom side) disposed the anchor clamps 45 of a spring biasing in the setting of these anchor clamps 44.
In use, as shown in Figure 4, driver element 31 is hanging downwards from the branch of Christmas tree, and this tree is decorated lighting bulb 29 on a series of Christmas, and selene product 32 are bearing on the hook gear 41.Power provides unit 33 to be sandwiched on the adjacent branch.
Near a bulb 29 ' be inserted into power to provide in the anchor clamps 44 of unit 33, as shown in Figure 6, these anchor clamps are lighting bulb 29 ' closely clamp on transparency cover 42A, so that make lighting bulb 29 ' can illuminate following solar panel 43.Solar panel 43 starts to produce electric power and to offer motor 36, and motor 36 drives again and rotates hook gear 41, and then selene product 32 are rotated.
Comprise lighting bulb 9 ' or 29 ' lighting bulb 9 or 29 flashes of light at work usually on Christmas.In order to ensure ornament 10 or 30 continuous operations, the output in solar panel 16 or 43 can be provided with a rechargeable power supply or element.Such power supply or element can be for example provide by a rechargeable battery or based on the circuit of electrolytic condenser, parallel cross-over connection solar panel 16 of described circuit or 43 output lead.Battery or will be recharged or recharge, and lighting bulb 9 ' or 29 ' connect and be used for the electric power of deposit is offered electric notor 19 or 36 simultaneously, lighting bulb 9 ' or 29 ' temporary close simultaneously by solar panel 16 or 43 based on the circuit of capacitor.
More described two ornaments 10 and 30 can know that motor/gear mechanism and solar panel are not that necessity is loaded in the same housing.Moreover associated lighting bulb maybe can place in the housing or can place outside the housing.
Can imagine,, may be used on driving sound generator so that be used on the Christmas tree or any other has the supporting structure of light source from the use thought of the electric power of facile close to sources gained by solar cell according to the present invention.
Use up near the electric light source of mediating from and draw electric power, this is unnecessary to carry out any electrical connection, otherwise it is the potential cause that causes some electrifications or electric leakage.
Sound generator can be in conjunction with a microprocessor that is composed of program, with fragment or the tune of performing music, and a piezoelectricity buzzer, this buzzer is connected to the output of microprocessor, so as under the control of microprocessor replay snatch of music or tune.This sound generator is known in existing music Congratulation card usually.The circuit of this sound generator is placed in the mode identical with the driver element of the embodiment that as above describes in detail or motion generator.
The present invention provides in the example mode, but the people who is familiar with this area can make various other modifications and/or variation to described embodiment, and does not break away from the scope of the present invention of claims defined.
