The application claims priority to Chinese patent application No. 202321964598.7, filed on Jul. 25, 2023, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.


TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a Christmas tree ornament, more particularly to a Christmas tree with a rotatable decorative lamp.


BACKGROUND

At present, fiber-optic Christmas tree and lamp tree series products prevailing on the market are all manufactured in such a way that each branch on a tree body guides LED light emitting tubes and fibers from a top of the branch to a root of the tree body through an interior of the branch, then a power supply connector is lead out from inside the tree body to switch on all the LED light emitting tubes on the tree body, and next a light source arranged inside a base is employed to illuminate the fibers at the bottom of the tree body so that the fibers inside the tree body can light. All the manufacturing methods follow the same pattern, which, however, cannot achieve the rotation of a decorative lamp on the top of the Christmas tree.


The prior art, for example, a magnetically levitated Christmas tree disclosed in the application No. 2021231526964 specifically includes a Christmas tree, a base fixedly mounted at a bottom of the Christmas tree and a tray positioned below the base. The base includes a levitation magnet, a wireless powered receiving coil, a voltage stabilizing chip and a lighting strip. The wireless powered receiving coil, the voltage stabilizing chip and the lighting strip are connected in sequence. The lighting strip is wound on an exterior surface of the Christmas tree. The tray includes a housing and a wireless powered switch, a circuit input module, a voltage stabilizing circuit board, a ring magnet and a wireless powered transmitting coil that are all mounted inside the housing. The wireless powered switch, the circuit input module, the voltage stabilizing circuit board and the wireless powered transmitting coil are all electrically connected in sequence. The wireless powered transmitting coil is paired with the wireless powered receiving coil, for transmission of wireless electricity. The ring magnet and the levitation magnet form a magnetic repulsion match.


Although the above technical solution can achieve the rotation of the entire Christmas tree, whereby achieving the rotation of the decorative lamp of the Christmas tree from another perspective, the technical solution is merely applicable for small sized Christmas trees. Those Christmas trees with large volume and weight are difficult to rotate entirely, thus being unable to achieve the rotation of the decorative lamp.


SUMMARY

In view of the shortcomings of the existing technologies, the present disclosure aims to provide a Christmas tree with a rotatable decorative lamp.


In order to achieve the above aim, the present disclosure provides the following technical solution. A Christmas tree with a rotatable decorative lamp includes a tree body and a rotatable lighting unit positioned on an upper end of the tree body. The rotatable lighting unit includes a housing, a drive motor fixedly mounted inside the housing, a transmission gear component moveably mounted inside the housing and a rotatable lamp moveably mounted on the housing. The drive motor is provided thereon with a transmission shaft connected thereto in a transmission manner. The transmission shaft has an upper end fixedly connected to a lower gear. The lower gear is provided on one side with the transmission gear component connected thereto in a transmission manner. The lower gear has an upper end sleeved with a dedicated inner sheath. A cylindrical sleeve member runs through a middle part of the dedicated inner sheath. A shaft sleeve with a through hole is fixedly connected inside the cylindrical sleeve member. A first magnetic connector is mounted inside the through hole of the shaft sleeve through a bearing. The cylindrical sleeve member is further fixedly connected to an upper gear that has the same diameter as the cylindrical sleeve member and is connected to the transmission gear component in a transmission manner. The rotatable lamp includes a column body that can be fixed to the shaft sleeve through clamping. The column body has a bottom surface fixedly connected to a second magnetic connector and an upper end fixedly connected to a decorative lamp. The first magnetic connector and the second magnetic connector are magnetic male and female connectors mated with one another.


Further, in the present disclosure, the transmission gear component is composed of a first gear, a connecting shaft and a second gear. The first gear and the second gear are concentrically and fixedly connected to upper and lower ends of the connecting shaft. The first gear is engaged with the upper gear in a transmission manner; and the second gear is engaged with the lower gear in a transmission manner.


Further, in the present disclosure, the dedicated inner sheath is provided thereon with a support column that is integrally formed and coaxial with the connecting shaft. The support column has a bottom end fixedly connected to a support bearing that is sleeved on a top of the connecting shaft and positioned above the first gear.


Further, in the present disclosure, below the rotatable lighting unit are provided an optical charging panel and a storage power supply that are connected to one another. The storage power supply is electrically connected to the first magnetic connector and the drive motor.


Further, in the present disclosure, a connecting wire for connecting to the decorative lamp is provided inside the second magnetic connector.


Further, in the present disclosure, the decorative lamp is of a five-pointed star structure having an internal lighting source.


The present disclosure has the following beneficial effects.


The technical solution drives the rotation of the transmission gear component and the rotatable lamp through the drive motor, thereby causing the rotation of the decorative lamp, so that the decorative lamp on the upper end of the Christmas tree can be lighted and rotated without rotating the entire Christmas tree, enhancing the fun of the product.
