Description

The present invention relates to an LED torch for twirling.

Torch twirling is a performance performed by turning a lit stick (fire torch), and is mainly performed as a school event in Aichi Prefecture.
As shown in FIG. 3A, the conventional fire torch 51 is manufactured by wrapping a towel 53 around the tip of a rod 52, impregnating the towel 53 with kerosene, and igniting the towel 53 for use ( Non-Patent Document 1).

However, since the conventional fire torch 51 uses fire, it requires complete management and guidance (to prevent the towel from coming off, squeeze kerosene, handle without touching the fire, clean up after the fire, etc.). It was. In addition, despite such management and guidance, an accident occurred in which a student was burned during the performance, so it was banned as a school event.

Therefore, recently, as shown in FIG. 3B, an increasing number of schools use a chemical light torch 61, which is produced by wrapping a towel 63 around the tip of a rod 62 and attaching a chemical light 64 to the towel 63. (Non-Patent Document 1). Chemical light 64 is a mixture of diphenyl oxalate and hydrogen peroxide to cause chemiluminescence, and has a low risk.

However, since the chemical light 64 is disposable, there are problems in terms of economy and environment.

Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to perform and observe with the same feeling as a conventional fire torch because the appearance of light is large, it is safe because it does not use fire, and it is economical and environmental because it is not disposable. However, it is to provide an advantageous LED torch for twiring.

The twiring LED torch of the present invention includes a rod, a cylinder provided at the tip of the rod, and a plurality of LEDs (light emitting diodes) arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder. It is characterized by.

The plurality of LEDs are mounted on the LED tape light, and an embodiment in which the LED tape light is spirally wound on the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder can be exemplified. It is easy to arrange the LED on the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder.

It is preferable to have a translucent outer cylinder that surrounds and protects the LED and the cylinder. This is because damage to the LED and the cylinder can be prevented.

It is preferable that the batteries that supply power to the LEDs are arranged interchangeably inside the cylinder.

It is possible to exemplify an embodiment including a receiving unit that receives a signal transmitted from the remote controller and a control unit that changes the way the LED emits light based on the signal received by the receiving unit. During the performance, the performer or a person other than the performer can remotely change the way the LED emits light.

According to the present invention, since the appearance of light is large, it is possible to perform and observe with the same feeling as a conventional fire torch, it is safe because it does not use fire, and it is economically and environmentally advantageous because it is not disposable. An LED torch for twirling can be provided.

FIG. 3A is a perspective view of a conventional fire torch, and FIG. 3B is a perspective view of a conventional chemical light torch.

[1] Rod The material of the rod is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include metal, resin, wood, and bamboo.

[2] LED
The means for arranging a plurality of LEDs on the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder is not limited to winding the LED tape light in a spiral shape, and the LEDs are mounted one by one, and the LEDs are linearly connected in a row. Means such as winding can be exemplified.
The number of LEDs is not particularly limited, but 10 to 100 can be exemplified. 30 to 60 batteries are preferable because they have a powerful appearance like a flame and the longevity of the battery due to the suppression of power consumption.

[3] Cylinder The material of the cylinder is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include resin, metal, wood, and paper.
The shape of the tubular body is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a cylindrical shape and a square tubular shape.
The mode in which the cylinder is provided at the tip of the rod is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a mode in which the cylinder is fixed to the tip of the rod, a mode in which the cylinder is placed in a container attached to the tip of the rod, and the like.
When the LED tape light is used, the cylinder may be a cylinder as a core for spirally winding the LED tape light, or a cylinder made by the tape itself of the LED tape light spirally wound without a core. It may be.

[4] Outer cylinder The translucency of the outer cylinder is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include transparent, translucent, colored transparent, frost, and transparent with a pattern.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. The structure, shape, material, number, etc. of each part of the embodiment are examples, and can be appropriately changed as long as they do not deviate from the gist of the invention.

The twiring LED torch 1 of the embodiment includes a rod body 2, a cylinder body 7 provided at the tip of the rod body 2, a plurality of LEDs 10 arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder body 7, the LED 10 and the cylinder body. A transparent outer cylinder 4 that surrounds and protects the LED 7, a receiving unit 14 that receives a signal transmitted from a remote control 15 away from the LED torch 1, and a method of emitting light of the LED 10 based on the signal received by the receiving unit 14. It is provided with a control unit 11 for changing.

The rod body 2 is made of a cylindrical rod made of an aluminum alloy, and a finger hook 3 protruding in the radial direction is projected from the base end portion thereof. You can hang your finger on this finger hook 3 to hold the torch and turn it. The length of the rod body 2 is 300 to 600 mm (preferably 400 to 520 mm).

The outer cylinder 4 is a container composed of a transparent outer cylinder main body 5 having a bottomed cylinder shape and an outer cylinder lid body 6 that is detachably screwed to the outer cylinder main body 5, and the outer cylinder lid body 6 is a rod body. It is fixed to the tip of 2.
