Abstract
The aroma lamp contains a base member 1 having a circuit member 11 and a plug 12. A fan module 2 is positioned facing upward on a top surface of the base member 1. A hollow support member 4 covers the top surface of the base member 1 and the fan module 2. The support member 4 has a vertical tube 41 with surrounding openings 42 which penetrates an aroma producing element 5 and a light generating element 3 is positioned at a top end of the vertical tube 41. A hollow lamp shade (6, figure 2) is detachably joined to the support member and houses the aroma producing element and the light generating element inside. When the plug is connected to an electrical socket, the fan module is turned on and drives air to flow upward against the aroma producing element. The aroma producing element vaporizes and the aroma is spread outside the lamp shade. Aroma producing element may contain ethereal oils. Light generating element may be a Light Emitting Diode, LED.
Description
TITLE: AROMA LAMP
(a) Technical Field of the Invention
The present invention generally relates to aroma or fragrance producing devices, and more particularly to an aroma lamp receiving its power by plugging into an electrical socket.
(b) Description of the Prior Art
There are various commercially available devices for removing unpleasant odors from the environment, from pets, from dirty clothes, etc. For example, there are incense burning devices, deodorant spraying devices, ethereal oil burning devices, to name just a few. Recently, the ethereal oil burning devices are especially popular as aroma therapy receives wide acceptance as an effective healing and relaxing means.
There are also products combining a night lamp and an ethereal oil burning device together. These products are usually plugged into a wall outlet and use a light bulb of small wattage for illumination. The heat produced by the light bulb is used in evaporating ethereal oil to produce pleasant fragrance.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
A novel aroma lamp is provided here which simultaneously provides illumination and aroma. The aroma lamp contains a base member having a circuit member and a plug. A fan module is positioned facing upward on a top surface of the base member. A hollow support member covers the top surface of the base member and the fan module. The support member has a vertical tube with surrounding openings which penetrates an aroma producing element and a light generating element is positioned at a top end of the vertical tube. A hollow lamp shade is detachably joined to the support member and houses the aroma producing element and the light generating element inside.
When the plug is connected to an electrical outlet, the fan module is turned on by the electricity drawn through the plug. The fan module drives air to flow upward against the aroma producing element. The aroma producing element vaporizes and the aroma is spread outside the lamp shade via a top opening of the lamp shade.
The foregoing objectives and summaiy provide only a brief introduction to the present invention. To fully appreciate these and other objects of the present invention as well as the invention itself, all of which will become apparent to those skilled in the art, the following detailed description of the invention and the claims should be read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Throughout the specification and drawings identical reference numerals refer to identical or similar parts.
Many other advantages and features of the present invention will become manifest to those versed in the art upon making reference to the detailed description and the accompanying sheets of drawings in which a prefeffed structural embodiment incorporating the principles of the present invention is sho by way of illustrative example.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FIG 1 is a perspective diagram showing the various components of an aroma lamp according to an embodiment of the present invention.
FIG 2 is a perspective diagram showing the aroma lamp of FIG I after its assembly and with a lamp shade installed.
FIG 3 is a sectional diagram showing the aroma lamp of FIG 1.
FIG 4 is a sectional diagram showing the aroma lamp of FIG 2.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The following descriptions are exemplary embodiments only, and are not intended to limit the scope, applicability or configuration of the invention in any way. Rather, the following description provides a convenient illustration for implementing exemplary embodiments of the invention. Various changes to the described embodiments may be made in the function and arrangement of the elements described without departing from the scope of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, an aroma lamp A according to an embodiment of the present invention mainly contains a base member 1 having a circuit member 11 and a plug 12. By plugging the plug 12 to an electrical socket such as a wall socket, the aroma lamp A draws electricity from the socket to power the circuit member 11 and other components.
A fan module 2 is positioned facing upward on a top surface of the base member 1 and is connected to the circuit member 11. When the fan module 2 is turned on, it will produce air flow along a vertical direction.
A light generating element 3 such as a light emitting diode is connected to the circuit member 11 and is positioned above the fan module 2.
The aroma lamp A further contains a hollow support member 4 which covers the top surface of the base member 1 and the fan module 2. The support member 4 has a vertical tube 41 allowing the light generating element 3 to thread through. Surrounding the vertical tube 41, the support member 4 has a number of openings 42 allowing air to flow through.
An aroma producing element 5 is supported by the support member 4 and is positioned right above the openings 42 with the vertical tube 41 penetrating through the aroma producing element 5.
A hollow lamp shade 6 is joined to the support member 4 and houses the aroma producing elementS and the light generating element 3 inside. There is an opening 61 on a top side of the lamp shade 6 to allow air flow.
As also shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, when the plug 12 is plugged to a wall socket, the fan module 2 is turned on by the electricity drawn through the plug 12. The fan module 2 drives air to flow upward against the aroma producing element 5 via the openings 42. The aroma producing element 5 vaporizes and the aroma is spread outside the lamp shade 6 via its top opening 61. The aroma producing elementS could be a sponge soaked with ethereal oil or a soap made of solidified ethereal oil. When the plug 12 is plugged into a wall socket, the light generating element 3, positioned generally in the center of the lamp shade 6, is also turned on to provide illumination.
Please note that the lamp shade 6 could have various visually appealing shapes. The lamp shade 6 is detachably joined to the support member 4 and could be removed easily so that the support member 4 and the base member 1 are used by themselves. The details to the circuit member 11 should be straightforward to people of related arts and are therefore omitted here.
As described above, the aroma device of the present invention simultaneously provides illumination and aroma. It uses a vaporizable aroma producing element as the source of aroma and uses a fan module to facilitate its vaporization and the delivery of aroma. The illumination is provided by a light emitting diode which consumes very little power and generate minimum amount of heat.
While certain novel features of this invention have been shown and described and are pointed out in the annexed claim, it is not intended to be limited to the details above, since it will be understood that various omissions, modifications, substitutions and changes in the forms and details of the device illustrated and in its operation can be made by those skilled in the art without departing in any way from the spirit of the present invention.
