Description

Electronic incense

The invention relates to an electronic incense, in particular to an electronic incense which uses an electronic component to emit light and is environmentally friendly and smokeless.

The general public will illuminate the incense sticks when they worship their ancestors or gods, thereby conveying the sacred respect for worship and the fear of chasing away, but the traditional incense sticks will produce smoke, air pollution, and burning. The dust and dust must also be collected and treated, otherwise it will be blown away and affect the air quality. In order to improve the above problems, there is currently an electronic incense design, which is similar to the shape of a traditional incense stick, and a light source capable of being powered by light is disposed inside the outer casing, and when the light source is illuminated, a similar traditional lighting column can be generated. Effect.

Although the electronic incense can solve the air pollution problem caused by the previous incense, the known electronic incense cannot simulate the state in which the incense stick will gradually become shorter and the red fire at the top of the incense column gradually declines when the traditional incense column burns. Therefore, the visual effect of burning incense produced by electronic incense is still not realistic enough and needs to be improved.

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide an electronic incense which is capable of dynamically simulating a combustion process of a conventional incense column and having a good combustion simulation effect.

Thus, the electronic incense of the present invention comprises a fragrant tube, a plurality of fine sands, a illuminating member, and an off-white decorative member.

The sump tube includes a transparent upper tube section and a lower tube section opaque and defining an accommodating space together with the upper tube section, the lower section being internally provided with a narrowing portion defining a narrow opening. The fine sand is accommodated in the accommodating space, and can flow downward from the upper pipe section through the narrow narrowing port. The illuminating member is configured to emit red light and is disposed in the accommodating space and above the fine sand, and the illuminating member can be descended when the fine sand flows downward. The decorative piece is located above the illuminating member and can descend with the illuminating member.

The effect of the invention is that the fine sand can flow downward through the narrow constriction, and the illuminating member and the decorative member can simulate the burning of the traditional incense column and become shorter, and the red fire and the white ash are lowered. Therefore, the invention can dynamically simulate the combustion process, has a good simulation effect, and can present a realistic visual effect of the fragrance.

Referring to Figures 1, 2, and 3, an embodiment of the electronic incense of the present invention comprises a fragrant column tube 1, a bottom cover 2, a plurality of fine sands 3, a illuminating member 4, a decorative member 5, and a top cover 6. An adjustment member 7, and an insertion member 8.

The incense pipe 1 is a hollow pipe body extending longitudinally upward and downward, and includes a transparent upper pipe section 11 and a lower pipe section 12 connected to the lower pipe section 11 and opaque. The scented tube 1 can be made of a transparent glass or plastic material, and a red pigment similar to the red bottom section of the real incense column is sprayed on the outer tube surface of the lower tube section to form the lower tube section 12 of the present invention. The upper pipe section 11 and the lower pipe section 12 together define an accommodating space 10, and the lower pipe section 12 is internally provided with a narrowing portion 13 and an inner pipe surface is formed with an internal thread. The narrowing portion 13 can be an element additionally attached to the inner tube surface of the lower tube section 12 as in this embodiment, but can also be integrally formed in the lower tube section 12 when implemented. The narrowing portion 13 is approximately annular and has a first ring slope 131 extending obliquely radially inwardly from top to bottom, and a portion below the first ring slope 131, and gradually radial from top to bottom. A second ring slope 132 that extends outwardly. The narrowing portion 13 defines a narrowing opening 133 at the interface of the first ring slope 131 and the second ring slope 132.

The bottom cover 2 is detachably mounted to the bottom of the lower pipe section 12, and the bottom cover 2 is screwed with the lower pipe section 12, and includes a cover surface 21 that contacts the lower pipe section 12 and is formed with an external thread. The external thread is for screwing with the internal thread of the lower pipe section 12.

The fine sands 3 are accommodated in the accommodating space 10 and can flow downward from the upper pipe section 11 through the narrow narrowing opening 133. The appearance color of these fine sands 3 is similar to that of a traditional incense stick.

The illuminating member 4 is configured to emit red light and is disposed in the accommodating space 10 and above the fine sands 3. The illuminating member 4 can be lowered as the fine sand 3 flows downward. The illuminating member 4 is actually disposed on a circuit board 41 and can be connected to a built-in battery or an external power source through the circuit board 41 to receive light from a battery or an external power source to emit light. Since the circuit design and the connection line are not the improvement points of the present invention, they will not be described.

The garnish 5 is located above the illuminating member 4 and can descend with the illuminating member 4. The decorative piece 5 is grayish white and is used to simulate the grayish white ash remaining on the top of the incense stick when the traditional incense column is burned.

The top cover 6 is detachably mounted on the top of the upper pipe section 11 of the incense pipe 1 for closing the top opening of the incense pipe 1. The top cover 6 is made of a transparent material and has elasticity to be partially plugged into the top of the accommodating space 10.

The adjusting member 7 extends upward from the bottom cover 2 into the accommodating space 10 and can be driven to move up and down. The adjusting member 7 of the present embodiment has an elongated needle shape and has an adjusting portion 71 adjacent to the narrow narrowing opening 133 and for adjusting the size of the lower opening of the narrowing opening 133.

The insertion member 8 extends downward from the bottom cover 2 and has an elongated needle shape. The insertion member 8 can be used to insert the present invention into the incense burner.

When the present invention is used, since the fine sands 3 exhibit a pale earthy yellow color, and because the upper tube section 11 of the incense stick tube 1 is transparent, the fine sands 3 can simulate the appearance of the khaki cylinders exhibiting the traditional incense sticks. The effect, and the illuminating member 4 emits red light, and the gray-white color of the decorative member 5 can simulate the red fire and white ash at the top of the burning column. The lower pipe section 12 is of opaque design, and the red color of the bottom section of the scented column is sprayed on the outer pipe surface, thereby cooperating with the fine sand 3 in the upper pipe section 11 to form an overall column shape and color similar to the traditional incense column. Moreover, the narrow portion 13 and the adjusting member 7 inside thereof can be blocked.

The bottom cover 2 and the adjusting member 7 extend into the lower pipe section. The bottom cover 2 and the adjusting member 7 extend into the lower pipe section. The depth in 12 can be adjusted whereby the narrowing 133 can be closed or opened and the speed of sand leakage can be controlled. When the height of the adjusting member 7 is high and the adjusting portion 71 is inserted into the narrow opening 133 (as shown in FIG. 2), the narrow opening 133 can be blocked, and the fine sand 3 does not flow downward. When the user adjusts the height position of the adjusting member 7 to lower it and does not block the narrowing opening 133 (as shown in FIG. 3), the narrowing portion 13 is similar to the design of the hourglass structure, so that the fine sand 3 can be passed through The narrow opening 133 flows downward, and as time passes, the amount of fine sand 3 that flows down and accumulates on the bottom cover 2 is more and more, and the height of the fine sand 3 in the upper pipe section 11 gradually decreases, and The illuminating member 4 and the garnish 5 are also lowered, which can simulate the state in which the fragrant column is ignited, the fragrant column is gradually shortened due to combustion, and the red blaze and the white ash at the top of the fragrant column are also lowered. After the fine sand 3 is completely deposited on the bottom cover 2, the electronic incense of the present invention can be inverted, so that the fine sand 3 flows back into the upper pipe section 11 through the narrow narrowing port 133, and then the invention is erected, that is, It can be simulated again.

It should be noted that the adjusting member 7 can be used to control the size of the opening below the narrowing opening 133 in addition to the narrowing and opening of the narrowing opening 133 to control the speed of sand leakage. For example, when the flow speed of the fine sand 3 is to be accelerated, the position of the adjusting member 7 can be moved downward by rotating the bottom cover 2, so that the space blocked by the adjusting portion 71 at the opening below the narrowing opening 133 can be reduced. Thereby, the speed of sand leakage is accelerated (for example, after the bottom cover 2 and the adjusting member 7 in FIG. 3 are further moved downward, the sand leakage can be accelerated). When the flow speed of the fine sand 3 is to be slowed down, the position of the adjusting member 7 can be adjusted to increase, so that the opening below the narrowing opening 133 becomes small, and the speed of sand leakage becomes slow.

In summary, the fine sand 3 can flow downward through the narrow narrowing port 133, and the light-emitting member 4 and the decorative member 5 are matched to simulate the burning of the traditional incense-column, and the red fire and white ashes are gradually shortened. The state of the decline, so the present invention is a dynamic simulation of the combustion process, the simulation effect is good, and the realistic visual effect of the fragrance can be presented.

However, the above is only the embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of the invention is not limited thereto, and all the equivalent equivalent changes and modifications according to the scope of the patent application and the patent specification of the present invention are still The scope of the invention is covered.
