Abstract
Methods, systems and devices associated with an electronic candle are described. One example, electronic candle device includes a housing with a through-hole at its top, a transfer device including a driver motor and one or more gears positioned inside the housing, and a light emitting component coupled to the transfer device such that the transfer device causes the light emitting component to move vertically up or down to protrude from the housing or to retract into the housing. The electronic candle also includes a movable lid positioned below the through-hole inside the housing and movable to remain in at least one of an open configuration or a closed configuration, and a controller configured to turn on or off the light emitting component.
Claims17
An electronic candle, comprising:
- a housing having a through-hole at its top;
- a transfer device including a driver motor and one or more gears positioned inside the housing;
- a light emitting component coupled to the transfer device such that the transfer device causes the light emitting component to move vertically up or down to protrude from the housing or to retract into the housing;
- a movable lid positioned inside the housing and movable to remain in at least one of an open configuration or a closed configuration, the movable lid comprising two sections, each section including a top portion and a bottom portion,
- the top portions configured to come together to substantially close the through-hole in the closed configuration and move away from one another to allow at least a section of the light emitting component protrude from the housing in the open configuration,
- each of the bottom portions extending downward away from the top of the housing and coupled to the light emitting component such that upon upward movement of the light emitting component the bottom portions move sideways to allow the light emitting component to move up within the housing;
- and
- a controller configured to turn on or off the light emitting component.
