(16) Continuing to refer to
(17) It should be noted that the groove 120 extends circumferentially along the lamp body 100 in the form of a ring, and this circumferential direction is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the lamp body 100. In this case, the groove 120 can be a circumferentially continuous annular structure, or a circumferentially discontinuous and spaced annular structure, or a circumferentially continuous arc-shaped structure.
(18) It should also be noted that the number of grooves 120 may be multiple. The multiple grooves 120 are spaced apart along the longitudinal direction of the lamp body 100. The provision of multiple grooves 120 allows for a more secure engagement between the base assembly 300 and the lamp body 100, thereby preventing the base assembly 300 from detaching from the receiving cavity 110. It is understood that in other embodiments, the number of grooves 120 can also be singular. The number of grooves 120 can be set according to practical needs, and the present disclosure does not specifically limit the number of grooves 120. Furthermore, when the number of grooves 120 is multiple, for any two adjacent grooves 120 along the longitudinal direction of the lamp body 100, a radial dimension of the groove 120 closer to the wick 200 is smaller than a radial dimension of the groove 120 farther from the wick 200.
(19) Referring to
(20) Continuing to refer to
(21) In this embodiment, the base 310 is provided with a latching tab 311 and engages with the lamp body 100 by inserting the latching tab 311 into the groove 120, thereby longitudinally securing the base 310 to the lamp body 100. The latching tab 311 is circumferentially discontinuous along the lamp body 100, being divided into a plurality of circumferentially spaced, arc-shaped latching segments. The arc-shaped latching segments deform toward an inner side of the base 310 in response to radial pressure during engagement with the groove 120. By providing the latching tab 311 as circumferentially discontinuous, the space between the segments of the latching tab 311 provides room for movement for the elastic deformation of the latching tab 311, thereby increasing the elastic force of the deformation and facilitating easier engagement between the base 310 and the lamp body 100. It is understood that the latching tab 311 can also be circumferentially continuous, and any solution where the latching tab 311 can engage with the groove 120 should be protected. It is also understood that the latching tab 311 can extend circumferentially along the lamp body 100 in the form of a ring. In this case, the latching tab 311 can be a circumferentially continuous annular structure, or a circumferentially discontinuous and spaced annular structure, or a circumferentially continuous arc-shaped structure.
(22) It should be noted that in other embodiments, the placement of the groove 120 and the latching tab 311 can be reversed. In such a case, the groove 120 is provided on the base 310, and the latching tab 311 is provided on the wall of the receiving cavity 110. Therefore, the present disclosure does not limit the specific placement of the groove 120 and the latching tab 311.
(23) Specifically, when the base 310 carrying the power driver board 320 closes the receiving cavity 110, the base 310 carries the latching tab 311 to move along a wall of the tapered groove 130, guiding the base 310 to slide into the receiving cavity 110. The tapered groove 130 being circumferentially continuous allows the latching tab 311 to engage with the receiving cavity 110 from any orientation when aligning with the tapered groove 130.
(24) It should be noted that in other embodiments, the groove 120 and the latching tab 311 may be omitted. In this case, the connection method between the base 310 and the lamp body 100 may not be a latching connection. The connection can be achieved by other means, for example, the base 310 and the lamp body 100 can be fixed by a screw-threaded connection, or the base 310 can be press-fitted into the receiving cavity 110 to form an interference fit with the lamp body 100.
(25) Referring to
(26) Referring to
(27) It should be noted that for a corresponding pair of the latching tab 311 and the groove 120, at least one of their mutually contacting surfaces during engagement is a sloped surface or a curved surface. For example, as shown in
(28) The latching tab 311 is elastically deformable, such that when the base 310 closes the receiving cavity 110, the latching tab 311 can be compressed and deformed between the lamp body 100 and the base 310, allowing the base 310 to carry the latching tab 311 to move relative to the lamp body 100 and engage with the groove 120. By making the latching tab 311 elastically deformable, it can abut against the lamp body 100 and be compressed. When closing the base 310 onto the lamp body 100, the latching tab 311 easily engages with the groove 120. It is understood that in alternative embodiments where ease of engagement is not a primary design consideration, the latching tab 311 can also be configured to be non-elastically deformable, and any solution where the base 310 can close the receiving cavity 110 should be protected. It is also understood that in other embodiments, the latching tab 311 may not be elastically deformable.
(29) Referring to
(30) Referring to
(31) It should be noted that the latching hook 314 is elastically deformable, such that when detaching the power driver board 320 from the base 310, the latching hook 314 can elastically deform away from a side where the power driver board 320 is located, allowing the latching hook 314 to disengage from the power driver board 320, thereby enabling detachment. By making the latching hook 314 elastically deformable, it is more convenient for a user to replace the power driver board 320 or the base 310, thereby facilitating the detachment process. It is understood that if the convenience of detaching the power driver board 320 from the base 310 is not a consideration, the latching hook 314 can also be configured to be non-elastically deformable, and any solution where the power driver board 320 can be detached from the base 310 should be protected.
(32) Referring to
(33) Referring to
(34) It should be noted that the base 310 is capable of rotating synchronously with the latching tab 311, allowing the latching tab 311 to rotate relative to the lamp body 100 within the groove 120 along its circumferential direction. By rotating the base 310, the orientation of the first through-hole 312 can be changed, allowing the user to change the direction of the power cord according to practical usage needs, which is convenient and improves the user experience. It is understood that if changing the direction of the power cord is not a consideration, the latching tab 311 can also be configured to be non-rotatable relative to the lamp body 100 within the groove 120, and any solution where the power cord can be plugged into the charging port 321 should be protected.
(35) In summary, in the present disclosure, by providing a groove 120 on one of a wall of the receiving cavity 110 and the base 310, and a latching tab 311 on the other, the latching tab 311 engages with the groove 120, longitudinally securing the base 310 to the lamp body 100. The unintended detachment of the base 310 from the lamp body 100 is prevented, the connection is stable, and the operational lifespan of the candle lamp 10 is effectively extended.
(36) Referring to
(37) Referring to
(38) The number of latching slots 322 is at least two and corresponds one-to-one with the latching hooks 314. The two latching slots 322 are disposed on opposite ends of the power driver board 320, and the direction of opposition of the two latching slots 322 is perpendicular to both the longitudinal direction of the lamp body 100 and the thickness direction of the power driver board 320.
(39) Referring to
(40) Referring to
(41) Referring to
(42) It should be noted that in other embodiments, the control main body 410 may be omitted. In this case, retaining the switch 420 is sufficient to control the lighting or extinguishing of the wick 200, with the switch 420 being electrically connected to the power driver board 320.
(43) Specifically, the switch 420 passes through the second through-hole 313, such that a portion of the switch 420 structure is exposed outside the receiving cavity 110 for manual operation. During the process of fixing the power driver board 320 to the base 310, the switch 420 aligns with the second through-hole 313.
(44) Although the present disclosure has been described with reference to several typical embodiments, it should be understood that the terminology used is illustrative and exemplary rather than restrictive. Since the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms without departing from its spirit or essence, it should be understood that the above-described embodiments are not limited by any foregoing details but should be broadly interpreted within the spirit and scope defined by the appended claims. Therefore, all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the claims or equivalents thereof should be covered by the appended claims.
