The nail case 100 is formed of a PVC material to be waterproof and can accommodate the printed circuit board 200, the battery 400, the contact switch 500, and the control unit 600 by forming an internal space.

The printed circuit board 200 is fixed inside the nail case 100, and electronic circuits are disposed. At least one LED 300 may be arranged on the upper surface of the electronic circuit in various shapes. Also, the LED 300 may be used as a pie type having a diffusion plate for emitting light, a chip type like a chip, or a bright type having a large diffusing source. However, the LED 300 is not limited thereto and any configuration can be used .

The battery 400 is fixed inside the nail case 100 and is electrically connected to the LED 300 to supply power to the LED 300 through the printed circuit board 200 to emit the LED 300. [ have. The battery 400 can be used as a rechargeable rechargeable battery.

The contact switch 500 may be provided for allowing the user to emit the LED 300. [ The contact switch 500 includes an elastic portion 510 whose one end is fixed to the nail case 100 and is rotated by an external force at the center of one end fixed to the nail case 100 and an elastic portion 510 fastened and fixed to the other end of the elastic portion 510, And a proximity sensor 530 which is positioned to be spaced apart from the fixing piece 520 and is operated when the fixing piece 520 approaches a certain distance.

The resilient portion 510 may allow the user to have a non-rotating elastic force on the power of a hand that walks on foot or shakes in life, and may be rotated if the user gives a force above a certain level to shake the hand. The elastic part 510 may be formed as a coil spring or a rod having an elastic restoring force. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. If the elastic part 510 is rotated by an external force, Any configuration may be possible.

The fixing part 520 may be provided to operate the proximity sensor 530 by being fastened and fixed to the other end of the elastic part 510 and rotated by the elastic part 510, It is also possible to weigh the weight to make it possible.

The proximity sensor 530 is located apart from the fixing piece 520, and can be operated when the fixing piece 520 is proximate or touching a certain distance. That is, when the user shakes his or her hands at any time, the proximity sensor 530 may be operated at any time to continuously supply power to the LED 300. [

When the contact switch is turned on, the controller 600 can control the battery so that the power supplied from the battery 400 to the LED 300 is supplied for a predetermined time and is then interrupted. The control unit 600 may be an unstable multivibrator that repeatedly supplies and cuts off the power supplied from the battery 400 to the LED 300 for 3 to 5 seconds.

That is, when the proximity sensor 530 is operated, the controller 600 supplies the power supplied from the battery 400 to the LED 300 through the printed circuit board 200 and supplies power to the LED 300 It is possible to repeatedly supply and cut off the LED 300 to blink. In addition, it is possible to set the flicker to a long time or to blink at a short speed with a time difference between the supply and the interruption of the power to the LED 300.

3 and 4, the artificial nail 10 provided with the LED according to the present invention may include a button switch 210.

The button switch 210 may be provided to prevent the user from emitting the LED 300 during the daytime. The button switch 210 is installed on the upper surface of the printed circuit board 200 and manually turns on / off the power supplied from the battery 400 to the LED 300 under the control of the controller 600. [ )can do.

That is, even when the contact switch is turned on with the button switch 210 turned off, the power supplied from the battery 400 to the LED 300 can be cut off. On the other hand, if the button switch 210 is kept on, the LED 300 can continuously emit light under the control of the controller 600.

Referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, the artificial nail 10 having the LED according to the present invention may include a solar cell module 410.

The solar cell module 410 receives light emitted from the sun to generate electricity, and stores the generated electricity in the rechargeable battery.

That is, since the size of the battery 400 used in the artificial nail 10 is small and it is difficult to replace the battery 400, the self-power generation of the battery 400 is performed using the solar cell module 410 or the piezoelectric element (not shown) The power supplied to the power source 300 may be used semi-permanently. The constitution and principle of the solar cell module 410 or the piezoelectric element are well known to those skilled in the art, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted in the present invention.

Referring to FIGS. 7 and 8, the artificial nail 10 provided with the LED according to the present invention may include a speaker 700.

The speaker 700 is installed inside the nail case 100. When power supplied from the battery 400 is supplied to the LED 300 under the control of the controller 600, the controller 700 controls the melody Can be displayed.

That is, it is difficult to confirm whether the LED 300 emits light due to the ambient light when the LED 300 emits light in a bright or sunny day. Therefore, when the LED 300 emits light, Lt; / RTI >

Hereinafter, a method of operating the artificial nail with LED according to the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. 1 to 9. FIG.

First, the user attaches the artificial nail 10 equipped with an LED to his / her fingernail firmly using double-faced tape or nail glue. When the user shakes his / her hand in the state of being attached to the nail, the fixing piece 520 acts as a weight by the force of the user, and the elastic part 510 connected to the fixing piece 520 is rotated to the left and right by the elastic force .

Next, when the fixing piece 520 is rotated left and right by the elastic portion 510, the fixing piece 520 moves close to the proximity sensor 530 to operate the proximity sensor 530. [ When the proximity sensor 530 is operated, power is supplied from the battery 400 to the LED 300. At this time, the control unit 600 may control the battery to supply or cut off the power supplied to the LED 300. [ The power supplied to the LED 300 may be repeatedly supplied and interrupted to cause the LED 300 to blink for 3 to 5 seconds.

Then, when the user shakes hands continuously, the contact switch 500 is continuously operated so that the power supplied from the battery 400 to the LED 300 can be continuously supplied by the control of the controller 600 . Then, the LED 300 continuously supplied with power can repeatedly flicker continuously.

Then, when the user shakes the hand, the operation of the contact switch 500 is stopped, and the power supplied to the LED 300 is no longer supplied, so that the LED 300 can stop emitting light.

While the present invention has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be practical exemplary embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, It will be understood that the invention may be practiced. It is therefore to be understood that one embodiment described above is illustrative in all aspects and not restrictive.
