Therefore, the inflatable model is more likely to become the focus of the public in an activity occasion, and is taken as an important means for information and culture communication. There are a wide variety of inflatable model products in market today, including arches, columns, wedding celebration, cartoons, product models, amusement facilities and water children's parks, the inflatable model products, for a wide range of use. In addition to common advertising industries, the inflatable model is involved in amusement, sports competition, television entertainment, wedding celebration, exhibition promotion even military field. The inflatable model is also frequently used for various exhibitions, garden parties, dancing parties and various activity meeting places and is used for introducing cultural information to the outside and creating a cultural atmosphere of the meeting places, for example, a common inflatable doll placed in an activity space mainly comprises a hollow inflatable body and an air blower, the inflatable body is made of a flexible material, an air inlet of the inflatable body is connected to the air blower to blow the air into the inflatable body to inflate and swell the inflatable body.
However, the inflatable model in the prior art is simple in function, especially does not have the light-emitting characteristic and is inevitably poor in interestingness; moreover, as the activities held in various festivals are more and more diversified, many activities can be held in places with dim light, such as Halloween meeting places and Christmas meeting places, and the like. In the festival occasion, the inflatable model is required to have a luminous effect, and is also required to have various lighting effect combinations to enrich the exhibition effects, so that the inflatable model in the prior art is not suitable for such activity occasions and still required to be improved.
The present invention thus is provided with an inflatable model with lighting effects which not only can achieve the light-emitting effect of the inflatable model, but can achieve various lighting effect combinations on the inflatable model, thus enriching the exhibition effect of the inflatable model.
