Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] (a) Industrial application field This invention relates to a rechargeable lamp using a secondary battery such as a nickel-cadmium secondary battery as a power source.

(b) Prior Art This type of rechargeable lamp incorporates a secondary battery into the lamp body, but since the secondary battery is quite heavy, it must be properly positioned and fixed within the lamp body.

Conventionally, a dedicated mounting member was used to secure the battery, but there was a concern that this would increase the number of parts used and the number of assembly steps.

(c) Purpose of the invention The rechargeable lamp of the present invention uses a rod rod to attach the light bulb socket to the lamp body, and the assembled battery is properly positioned and fixed on the bottom plate of the lamp body, reducing the number of parts used and making it easy to assemble. It is made easier.

(d) Structure of the invention The rechargeable lamp of the present invention includes a battery assembly in which at least three cylindrical secondary batteries are arranged side by side and integrated with a through hole formed in the axial direction, and the battery assembly is integrated with the through hole. It has a bottom plate to be placed in the vertical direction, a light bulb socket at the tip, a protruding edge in the middle part that comes into contact with the upper end of the body of the secondary battery, and the battery is inserted through the through hole of the battery pack. It is characterized by comprising a rod that presses the battery against the bottom plate with the projecting edge and is fitted and fixed to the bottom plate, and the rod is used to attach the light bulb socket and fix the assembled battery to the bottom plate. It is configured to be performed simultaneously.

(e) Embodiment 1 is a rechargeable candle light which is a rechargeable light device, and this candle light 1 can be used, for example, by placing it on individual tables in a restaurant etc. to liven up the atmosphere of a meal. It is used for lighting, and includes a cylindrical lamp body 2 with an upwardly protruding elongated neck portion 2a for illumination, and a translucent globe 3 that is placed over the lamp body 2 to cover the neck portion 2a.
It is made up of.

4 is a circular bottom plate of this lamp body 2;
, 5 is a switch operation hole, 6 is a charging terminal storage recess that projects upward, and 7 is a charging terminal storage recess that extends from the bottom plate 4 so as to form a switch storage section 8 above the switch operation hole 5. a battery mounting rib protruding until it is flush with the upper end surface 6a of the location 6;
Reference numeral 9 indicates a battery positioning rib that protrudes slightly above the battery mounting rib 7 and positions the stored battery placed on the battery mounting rib 7 in the lateral direction; a cylindrical rib protruding until it is flush with the upper end surface 6a of the storage recess 6;
Reference numeral 1 denotes a screw-locking cylindrical rib having a screw-locking hole 12.

Reference numeral 13 designates a slide switch for lighting a light bulb, which is housed in the switch housing 8 with the operating knob 13a protruding downward from the switch operating hole 5, and fixed by screws 14 on both edge pieces to the bottom plate 4. It's getting old.

15 is a charging female terminal, which is located in the charging terminal storage recess 6.
With the free end 15a inserted inside, the base end is attached to the bottom plate 4.
It is designed to be attached to the bottom plate 4 by fixing it to the terminal fixing rib 16 of the terminal.

17 is a single type cylindrical nickel-cadmium secondary battery; 18 is a tape 20 in which three secondary batteries 17 are arranged in parallel and a through hole 19 is formed in the axial direction;
The battery pack 18 is formed by winding and integrating the battery packs 18 with the terminal pieces 17a of the respective secondary batteries 17 directly attached and connected in series.

Reference numeral 21 denotes a resin rod rod which is attached to protrude upward from the central portion of the bottom plate 4 and constitutes the elongated neck portion 2a for illumination, and a light bulb socket 22 is attached to the tip 21a by adhesively fixing it.
A fitting convex portion 21c is provided to protrude downward from the lower end 21b, and a protruding edge 21d is provided around an intermediate portion spaced apart from the lower end 21b by a distance H' of the body height H of the secondary battery 17. The assembled battery 1
8 is placed on the battery mounting rib 7 of the bottom plate 4 and the upper end surface 6a of the charging terminal storage recess 6 so that the through hole 19 is in the vertical direction, and the rod 21 is penetrated into the through hole 19. By fitting the fitting projection 21c into the cylindrical rib 10, the projecting edge 21d
is in contact with the upper end 17b of the body of the secondary battery 17 constituting the assembled battery 18 to press and fix the secondary battery 17 to the bottom plate 4.

23 is an upper cover, which has a cylindrical body portion 24 with a downward opening.
and an elongated neck portion 2 that covers the upper portion of the rod rod 21.
5.

After assembling the slide switch 13, charging female terminal 15, assembled battery 18, and rod rod 21 on the bottom plate 4, the lead wires 26 are wired, and the upper cover 23 is placed on the top cover 23, and the mounting screws 27 are inserted into the screw retaining cylinder of the bottom plate 4. The lamp main body 2 is constructed by tightening the screw tightening rib 28 inside the cylindrical body 24 of the upper cover 23 via the rib 11, and after the light bulb 29 is attached to the light bulb socket 22, the glove 3 is placed on the upper cover 23. This completes candle light 1.

Further, reference numeral 30 denotes a charging stand for this candle light 1, which houses a charging circuit and is formed with a protrusion 31 projecting upward to fit into the charging terminal storage recess 6 of the bottom plate 4 of the candle light 1. Charging male terminals 32 are provided on both sides of the charging female terminal 31 and are electrically connected to the charging female terminal 15 .

(f) Effect of the invention As described above, according to the present invention, the assembled battery consisting of at least three cylindrical secondary batteries is prevented from moving in the lateral direction by the rod for attaching the light bulb socket to the bottom plate. The protruding edge of the rod allows the rod to be pressed toward the bottom plate at the same time as it is attached to the bottom plate, and to be attached to a predetermined attachment position.In other words, the attachment of the light bulb socket and the attachment of the assembled battery can be done with one rod. can be achieved at the same time with a rod of
This reduces manufacturing costs by reducing the number of parts used and the number of assembly steps. Furthermore, since the assembled battery is positioned and fixed with a rod, the fixed position will not shift even if the assembled battery is quite heavy, and therefore the battery will remain stable even if the lamp body is moved to various locations. There is no rattling inside the lamp body,
You can get something that is easy to use.
