BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

(1) FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the present invention;

(2) FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the present invention;

(3) FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the present invention;

(4) FIG. 4 is a schematic view of the present invention in a use stat; and

(5) FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

(6) Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, an illuminated bottle stopper 1 of the present invention, in a preferred embodiment, mainly includes a lighting 2, plug body 3 and a light transmission tube 4, where the lighting 2 includes a light transparent decoration 21 of a preset shape and base 22 in connection with the bottom of the decoration 21, where the decoration 21 is a shell with a downward opening 211. The present invention takes a Christmas tree as a shape example, but it is not used to limit its appearance structure; the decoration 21 may also be a solid light-transmissible body. The base 22 is configured with a groove 221 with a upward opening and a power supply room 222 in communication with the groove 221, and the groove 221 is accommodated with an optoelectronic unit 23 having at least one circuit board 231 and a light emitting element 232, where the light emitting element 232 is correspondingly configured below the decoration 21, and the power supply room 222 is adapted to accept a battery a and is in electric connection with the optoelectronic unit 23.

(7) Furthermore, the optoelectronic unit 23 further has a switch 233 mainly used to switch on and off the battery a, and the switch 233 is a manual switch, light switch, touch switch or rotary switch; the present invention is described with the manual switch.

(8) The plug body 3 is tapered from top to bottom and is assembled below the base 22, where the outer edge of the plug body 3 is annularly configured with a soft tough element 31, which may be made of rubber, silicone or cork, where the inside of the plug body 3 is longitudinally configured with a passage 32 in communication with the power supply room 222. In the embodiment, The outer edge of the power supply room 222 is configured with external threads s1, and the top of the plug body 3 is correspondingly configured with internal threads s2 in engagement with the external threads s1, but the present invention does not limit the assembly manner of the base 22 and plug body 3, and any manner allowing the plug body 3 to be detachably coupled to the bottom the base 22 is dropped in the scope of the present invention.

(9) In the embodiment, the light transmission tube 4 is a hollow tube, one end of the light transmission tube 4 is sealed, and another end thereof is open and in connection with the mouth of the passage 32 on the bottom of the plug body 3; the joint of the light transmission tube 4 and the plug body 3 is in a closed state, and a light source 5 is configured inside the light transmission tube 4 and in electric connection with the power supply rom 222, where the light source 5, in the embodiment, is in the form of a light string and includes an electric line 51 extended throughout the passage 32 of the plug body 3 to be in electric connection with the power supply room 222. Furthermore, a plurality of spaced light emitting elements 52 are configured on the electric line 51, where each light emitting element may be a LED or light bulb.

(10) Further referring to FIG. 4, when the present invention is inserted in a bottle 6, the soft tough element 31 configured on the outer edge of the plug body 3 is used to seal a bottle mouth 61 of the bottle 6, and the light transmission tube 4 is extended in the bottle 6, with the lighting 2 being formed into a decoration above the bottle mouth 61. When the switch 233 is switched on, light is emitted from the light emitting element 232 of the optoelectronic unit 23 to allow the entire lighting 2 to illuminate on the bottle mouth 61. In addition, the light source 5 inside the light transmission tube 4 is brightly lit in the bottle 6, and the light is refracted and reflected by the fluid inside the bottle 6, allowing the bottle 6 to have a dazzling visual effect. Whereby, the present invention further allows the bottle stopper 1 to become a lighting to increase the aesthetics and competitiveness of the product besides has the effect of sealing the bottle mouth 61.

(11) Finally, referring to FIG. 5, which shows a variant embodiment of the present invention, the present embodiment is almost similar to the above embodiment except the light transmission tube 4 is a solid tube in the present embodiment, where one end of the light transmission tube 4 is in connection with the mouth of the passage 32 on the bottom of the plug body 3, and the light source 5 is an LED or light bulb; the light source is configured inside the passage 32 and the light emitting side of the light source 5 is abutted against one end of the light transmission tube 4. Whereby, light emitted from the light source 5 is guided to the entire light transmission tube 4, allowing the bottle 6 to have a different visual effect.
