The implementation principle of the ball lamp in the embodiment of the present application is: by installing the battery compartment 3 on the supporting part 10, it reduces changes to the spherical lampshade 1, thereby facilitating a production of the spherical lampshade 1. At the same time, when the ball lamp is placed in the horizontal position, the weight of the battery compartment 3 and the battery presses on the supporting part 10, thereby enhancing a stability of the ball lamp when placed in the horizontal position.


Embodiment 3

Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, a difference between Embodiment 3 and Embodiment 1 is that a plurality of first light-emitting elements 8 are distributed on an inner wall of the spherical lampshade 1.


Referring to FIGS. 9 and 10, a positive pin and a negative pin of the first light-emitting element 8 are fixedly connected to a first wire 17. Wire body of the first wire 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the spherical lampshade 1, and an end of the first wire 17, departing from the first light-emitting element 8, is electrically connected to the circuit board 6. The voltage regulation circuit on the circuit board 6 regulates the power output from the battery and supplies the power to the first light-emitting element 8.


The implementation principle of the ball lamp in the embodiment of the present application is as follows. The body of the first wire 17 is fixed to the inner wall of the spherical lampshade 1. When the ball lamp is shaken, the first light-emitting element 8 will be also shaken, thereby improving the decorative effect of the ball lamp. In addition, the first light-emitting element 8 is located on the spherical lampshade 1, which is beneficial for improving a brightness of the ball lamp when it emits light.


Embodiment 4

Referring to FIGS. 12 and 13, a difference between Embodiment 4 and Embodiment 3 is that the supporting part 10 is elastic, and the supporting part 10 is configured to be bent outward an outside of the spherical lampshade 1. When hanging the ball lamp, the supporting part 10 is bent towards the outside of the spherical lampshade 1, thereby improving the decorative effect of the ball lamp. When placing the ball lamp in the horizontal position, the supporting part 10 compresses against at the horizontal position and moves towards the interior of the spherical lampshade 1, making it convenient to place the ball lamp in the horizontal position.


Referring to FIGS. 14 and 15, on a side facing the inside of the spherical lampshade 1, the supporting part 10 is provided with a second light-emitting element 9 and a connecting base 18. The connecting base 18 is provided with a sliding hole 19 for the positive pin and negative pin of the second light-emitting element 9 to pass through, and both of the positive pin and the negative pin of the second light-emitting element 9 are inserted from an end of the sliding hole 19 away from the supporting part 10.


The positive pin and the negative pin of the second light-emitting element 9 are each provided with a second wire 20, an end of the second wire 20 is fixedly inserted into a side wall of the connecting base 18, and the other end of the second wire 20 is electrically connected to the circuit board 6. The sliding hole 19 is provided with a first conductive strip 21 therein, which is elastic. A side of the first conductive strip 21 is fixedly buried in an inner wall of the sliding hole 19 and fixedly connected to the second wire 20.


By sliding the positive pin and the negative pin of the second light-emitting element 9 in the sliding hole 19, one of the first conductive strips 21 is controlled to abut against or separate from the positive pin of the second light-emitting element 9, and the other of the first conductive strips 21 is controlled to abut against or separate from the negative pin of the second light-emitting element 9.


Referring to FIGS. 14 and 15, a fixing rod 22 is fixedly installed between the side wall of the connecting base 18 and the inner wall of the spherical lampshade 1, and the connecting base 18 is fixed inside the spherical lampshade 1 through the fixing rod 22. A first connecting rod 23 is fixedly installed in a middle of the supporting part 10, and an end of the first connecting rod 23, departing from the supporting part 10, is fixedly connected to the second connecting rod 24. The positive pin of the second light-emitting element 9 is fixedly connected to an insulation rod 25, an end of the insulation rod 25, departing from the second light-emitting element 9, is fixedly connected to the second connecting rod 24. The first connecting rod 23 and the second connecting rod 24 are conducive to connecting the insulation rod 25 with the middle of the supporting part 10. Due to a large deformation caused by compression in the middle of the supporting part 10, a distance required for the insulation rod 25 to move when the supporting part 10 is subjected to compression deformation is increased.


Referring to FIGS. 14 and 15, when the ball lamp is placed in the horizontal position, the supporting part 10 deforms towards the inside of the spherical lampshade 1, and the supporting part 10 pushes the first connecting rod 23 to move. The first connecting rod 23 pushes the second light-emitting element 9 to move through the second connecting rod 24 and the insulation rod 25, thereby separating the positive pin of the second light-emitting element 9 from the first conductive strip 21, and thereby stopping the voltage regulation circuit on the circuit board 6 from supplying power to the second light-emitting element 9. When placing the ball lamp in the horizontal position, light emission is not required at a position where the supporting part 10 is located. By deforming the supporting part 10 towards the inside of the spherical lampshade 1, a connection between the second light-emitting element 9 and the voltage regulation circuit on the circuit board 6 is disconnected, thereby achieving energy-saving effect.


When hanging the ball lamp, the supporting part 10 is bent towards the spherical lampshade 1, the supporting part 10 drives the positive pin of a light-emitting element to be inserted into the sliding hole 19 through the first connecting rod 23, the second connecting rod 24, and the insulation rod 25, so that the positive pin of the second light-emitting element 9 abuts against the first conductive strip 21, thereby facilitating the voltage regulation circuit on the circuit board 6 to supply power to the second light-emitting element 9.


When hanging the ball lamp, the supporting part 10 is deformed towards an outside of the spherical lampshade 1, thereby connecting the second light-emitting element 9 to the voltage regulation circuit on the circuit board 6. After connecting the voltage regulation circuit between the second light-emitting element 9 and the circuit board 6, the second light-emitting element 9 lights up, thereby improving the decorative effect of the ball lamp.


Referring to FIGS. 14 and 16, a lamp body of the second light-emitting element 9 is located between the supporting part 10 and the connecting base 18, thereby reducing occurrence of the light emitted by the second light-emitting element 9 being blocked by the connecting base 18. The positive pin and the negative pin of the second light-emitting element 9 are both inserted from the end of the sliding hole 19 away from the supporting part 10 in a bent manner.


In the embodiment of the present application, there is only one second light-emitting element 9. When the supporting part 10, due to no compression, is bent towards the outside of the spherical lampshade 1, the positive pin and the negative pin of the second light-emitting element 9 will abut against a side of the connecting base 18 departing from the supporting part 10, thereby reducing a protrusion of the supporting part 10 caused by the weight of the first connecting rod 23, the second connecting rod 24, and the second light-emitting element 9.


In another embodiment, there are two or more second light-emitting elements 9. When the supporting part 10, due to no compression, is bent towards the outside of the spherical lampshade 1, the positive pin and the negative pin on the second light-emitting element 9 facing the first connecting rod 23 abut against the side of the connecting base 18 away from the supporting part 10.


The connecting base 18, the first connecting rod 23, and the second connecting rod 24 are all made of transparent materials such as plastic and glass, thereby reducing a situation where the connecting base 18, the first connecting rod 23, and the second connecting rod 24 block the light.


The implementation principle of the ball lamp in Embodiment 4 is as follows. When the ball lamp is hung up, the supporting part 10 is not compressed, and the supporting part 10 is bent towards the outside of the spherical lampshade 1, the supporting part 10 is connected to the first connecting rod 23, the second connecting rod 24, and the insulation rod 25 to make the positive pin of the second light-emitting element 9 touch the first conductive strip 21. Then, the voltage regulation circuit on the circuit board 6 supplies the battery output voltage to the second light-emitting element 9, so that the second light-emitting element 9 lights up. By the lighting up the first light-emitting element 8 and the second light-emitting element 9 at the same time, the decorative effect of the ball lamp when being hung up is improved.


When placing the ball lamp in the horizontal position, the supporting part 10 is compressed and moves towards the inside of the spherical lampshade 1, so as to separate the positive pin of the second light-emitting element 9 from the first conductive strip 21 through the first connecting rod 23, the second connecting rod 24, and the insulation rod 25, thereby disconnecting the second light-emitting element 9 from the voltage regulation circuit on the circuit board 6 to turn off the second light-emitting element 9. When the ball lamp is placed in the horizontal position, the second light-emitting element 9 is turn off, thereby achieving energy-saving effect.


The above are the preferred embodiments of the present application, which are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape and principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
