Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described an embodiment of the present invention; The following embodiments are provided to those skilled in the art to fully understand the present invention, and may be modified in various forms.

1 is a cross-sectional view of an artificial tree according to a first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 is an exploded cross-sectional view of an artificial tree according to a first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 is an artificial tree according to a first embodiment of the present invention A block diagram showing the structure of a tree.

1 to 3, the artificial tree 10 is an artificial pillar 110 having a fluid tube 111 formed therein, and a hollow coupled to the artificial pillar 110 and communicating with the fluid tube 111. It includes an expansion unit 120 is formed with a portion 121.

Artificial pillar 110 is a pillar of the artificial tree 10, and includes a fluid pipe 111 for expanding the expansion unit 120. The fluid pipe 111 is installed inside the artificial pillar 110 for aesthetics of the artificial tree 10, and the fluid pipe 111 is disposed in a region in contact with the expansion part 120.

In addition, the artificial column 110 is provided with a control unit 140 for controlling the flow rate of the fluid pipe 111. The controller 140 regulates the flow rate of the fluid in accordance with the value input by the input device 150. Specifically, when a predetermined value is input to the input device 150, the control unit 140 operates the fluid supply unit 160. When fluid is supplied to the fluid pipe 111 through the fluid supply unit 160, the controller 140 controls whether the valve 130 is opened or closed. Accordingly, the flow rate of the fluid flowing through the fluid pipe 111 can be adjusted. In this case, the input device 150 may be disposed outside the artificial tree 10 to be directly controlled, or may be disposed inside the artificial tree 10 to be controlled remotely.

Expansion unit 120 is a leaf of artificial tree 10, it is coupled to the artificial column (110). At this time, the hollow part 121 formed in the expansion part 120 is disposed to communicate with the fluid pipe 111 of the artificial column 110. In addition, the hollow part 121 is formed inside the expansion part 120 to accommodate the fluid. When the fluid is supplied to the hollow part 121, the expansion part 120 is expanded according to the hydraulic pressure of the fluid.

In addition, the expansion unit 120 may be formed of a flexible material having elasticity and elasticity to be expanded or contracted by the fluid. For example, the expansion unit 120 may be formed of a urethane-based rubber, and may be any one having a soft material. As such, the expansion part 120 is formed of a soft material and may shake when the wind blows.

In addition, the expansion unit 120 may be detachably coupled to the artificial column 110. For example, the expansion unit 120 may be fitted to the upper side of the artificial column 110 to be detachable to the artificial column (110). That is, the expansion unit 120 is detachably coupled from the artificial pillar 110 so that it can be replaced according to the user's request. Accordingly, the expansion unit 120 may be manufactured in various shapes. For example, the expansion unit 120 may be manufactured in various shapes such as leaves and petals, and may be changed in size and shape according to the flow rate of the fluid.

In detail, when the expansion part 120 is manufactured in the shape of a leaf, when the flow rate inside the expansion part 120 is low, the leaf shows a shape such as conifers, and when the flow rate is high, the size of the expansion part 120 is increased and the leaf This shows a broad hardwood shape.

In addition, when the expansion part 120 is manufactured in a petal shape, when the flow rate inside the expansion part 120 is lowered, the petals are represented by a bud shape, and when the flow rate is high, the petals are in full bloom.

As such, the expansion unit 120 may change its shape and size according to the flow rate of the fluid to provide the artificial tree 10 of various shapes. In addition, the expansion unit 120 is detachably coupled to the artificial pillar 110, it is possible to replace the expansion unit 120 of various shapes.

4 is a view showing the operating state of the artificial tree according to the first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view according to "A" of FIG.

In order to operate the artificial tree 10 according to FIGS. 4 and 5, first, a predetermined value is input through the input device 150. When a predetermined value is input to the input device 150, the controller 140 operates the fluid supply unit 160 to supply the fluid to the fluid pipe 111 and adjust the flow rate of the fluid through the valve 130. Here, fluid means gas or liquid.

Then, when the fluid flowing through the fluid pipe 111 is supplied to the hollow portion 121 of the expansion portion 120, the expansion portion 120 is expanded (d) to the outside. At this time, the degree of expansion of the expansion portion 120 is controlled according to the flow rate of the fluid supplied to the hollow portion 121.

As such, the expansion part 120 may change its shape and size according to the flow rate of the fluid supplied to the hollow part 121 to provide artificial leaves and petals of various shapes.

6 is a cross-sectional view of an artificial tree according to a second embodiment of the present invention, Figure 7 is an exploded cross-sectional view of the artificial tree according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

The artificial tree 20 according to FIGS. 6 and 7 is the same as the first embodiment of the present invention, but the artificial tree 210 between the artificial pillar 210 and the expansion unit 220 to implement various types of artificial tree 20. There is a difference in that the branch portion 230 is further provided.

Artificial branch 230 is a branch of the artificial tree 20, is provided between the artificial pillar 210 and the expansion 220. Specifically, the artificial branch 230 is coupled to the artificial pillar 210, the expansion portion 220 is coupled to the artificial branch 230 combined as described above. In addition, the artificial branch 230 is provided with an auxiliary fluid pipe 231 for supplying the fluid supplied through the fluid pipe 211 of the artificial pillar 210 to the expansion part 220. Accordingly, one end of the auxiliary fluid pipe 231 communicates with the fluid pipe 211 of the artificial pillar 210 and the other end communicates with the hollow part 211 of the expansion part 220.

As such, the artificial branch 230 may connect the artificial pillar 210 and the expansion 230 to implement the artificial tree 20 of various forms.

8 is a sectional view of an artificial tree according to a third embodiment of the present invention.

The artificial tree 30 according to FIG. 8 is the same as the first embodiment of the present invention in that the lighting unit 340 is provided inside the artificial pillar 310 to provide the artificial tree 30 of various colors. There is a difference.

The lighting unit 340 is provided to irradiate light, and includes a fixing unit 341 and a light source unit 342.

The fixing part 341 fixes the light source part 342 to the fluid tube 311, and is installed to be fixed to the fluid tube 311 so that the light source part 342 irradiates light toward the upper and side surfaces of the artificial tree 30. do.

The light source unit 342 emits light and may be provided on at least one of the artificial pillar 310, the artificial branch part (not shown), and the expansion part 320. In this embodiment, the light source unit 342 is installed outside the fluid tube 311 to emit light to the upper and side surfaces of the artificial tree (30). The light source unit 342 may include an LED, a fluorescent lamp, an incandescent lamp, a halogen lamp, or the like, as the light emitter for emitting light, but is not limited thereto.

In addition, one side of the artificial pillar 310 is provided with a power supply may supply power to the lighting unit 340.

As such, the lighting unit 340 is installed inside the artificial pillar 310 to produce the artificial tree 30 of various colors. Accordingly, even at night through the artificial tree 30 can produce a landscape lighting that is implemented in a variety of colors.
