Detailed ways

Figures 1 and 2 are pictures of two cordless telephones equipped with illuminated decorative elements on the telephone housing. The luminous decorative part of the machine base in the picture is in the shape of the outer contour of a vase, and is made of a plexiglass tube, and a light-emitting diode is arranged at each end of the bottom of the tube.

Fig. 3 is a drawing of Fig. 1, which is used to describe an embodiment of the utility model in detail.

Light-emitting diodes 306, 307 are provided at both ends of the bottom of the tube 301 of the vase-shaped light-emitting decoration component. Light is transmitted from the bottom ends 302, 303 of the vase-shaped tube 301 to the top ends 304, 305 of the tube 301 . Both the body and the surface of the tube 301 are transparent, and a part of the surface, such as the back or front of the tube 301, can be processed to become a translucent or rough surface, so that the transmitted light can reflect and scatter, so that people's Eyes can see.

A switch can be used simply to control the light emission of the tube 301, or the light can be directly connected to the power supply through the machine base.

The illuminated decorative element may also be used in conjunction with an incoming call signal for a telephone, a new caller identification signal, or an indicator that the telephone is busy. For example, in one embodiment of the present invention, when an incoming call rings the telephone, the lighted vase-shaped tube will flash rapidly. In another embodiment of the present invention, the lighted vase-shaped tube is caused to blink more slowly when a new caller identification signal is received. In yet another embodiment of the present invention, when the telephone is in use or the telephone line is busy, the lighted vase-shaped tube will continuously glow.

In yet another embodiment of the present invention, when used in conjunction with an incoming call signal, a new caller identification signal, or a busy indicator of a telephone set, the luminous decorative component can not only flash or continuously glow, but can also emit different colors. Obviously, for a better glowing decorative effect, the luminous decorative part is preferably also luminous when the phone is in a standby state, ie not in use. If the luminous decorative part is not illuminated when the phone is in the standby state, the user cannot see the luminous effect of the luminous decorative part when there is no incoming call or when the phone is not on the phone. This reduces the luminous effect and aesthetics of the luminous decorative part. Therefore, in order to enable the luminous decorative part to continuously perform the decorative function, the luminous decorative part should emit light for a long time, no matter whether the phone is in use or not. In this case, in order to distinguish various states, such as an incoming telephone signal, a new caller identification number, or an indicator that the telephone is busy, etc., the luminous decorative part can be made to emit monochromatic light of different colors, or Emit different mixed lights.

For example, in one embodiment of the present invention, when the phone is in a standby state and not in use, the light-emitting decoration component will continuously emit blue light. When an incoming call rings the phone, a red light source glows and flashes rapidly, causing the glowing vase-shaped tube to flash red rather than blue. When a new caller identification signal is received, a red light source glows and flashes more slowly, causing the glowing vase-shaped tube to slowly flash red instead of blue. When the phone is in use or the line is busy, the red light source is turned on and stays on, causing the glowing vase-shaped tube to emit a constant red light instead of blue light.

Mixing different colors of light can produce the effect of mixed light. For example, when the signal of an incoming telephone call, a new caller identification signal, or the phone is busy, if the blue light source is not turned off, the blue light will be in harmony with Red light from activated red light sources mixes to produce violet light. Depending on the state, you can get a purple light that flashes at different speeds or stays on continuously. Similarly, various light sources can be used, and various lights can be mixed to make the luminous decorative part exert a stronger decorative effect.

Fig. 4 shows the base of another cordless telephone, which is another embodiment of the present utility model. The tube of the luminous decorative part in the figure is in the shape of a semicircle.

Fig. 5 shows another embodiment of the present utility model, wherein, in addition to the tube of the ring-shaped light-emitting decorative part, a light-emitting object of another shape at the center of the ring is further combined, for example, it is made into a flower or Glowing tube in the shape of a butterfly.

FIG. 6 is an outline view of the luminous ring shown in FIG. 5 , the luminous object in the center of the ring, and the LED light source. The circular ring 601 and the luminous object 608 in the center of the circular ring share two LED light sources 602, 603 located at both ends of the bottom of the tube. Both the body and the surface of the tubes 606, 607 are highly transparent to minimize the loss of light transmission. On the other hand, certain positions on the surface of the luminous object 608 in the center of the ring are processed to be translucent or not smooth, and have appropriate angles to facilitate reflection and scattering of light. The surface of the luminous object can be made translucent or not smooth by grinding, engraving, painting, or other suitable methods.

According to this embodiment, multiple tubes can share the same light source so as to transmit light to other luminous objects. In this way, other luminous objects can be placed at suitable positions with different distances from the light source, as long as the light can be efficiently transmitted to the luminous object and can be seen by human eyeglasses. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, these illuminated decorative components may be used in conjunction with an incoming telephone signal, a new caller identification signal, or an indicator that the telephone is busy.

Furthermore, it is well known that light of any color can be produced by mixing appropriate amounts of red, blue and green light.

Fig. 7 shows a base of a cordless telephone, which is also an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, there are three light-emitting tubes on both sides of the landline, each of which emits light of a different color. A combination method is to use three light-emitting diodes of different colors to serve as light sources for the three light-emitting tubes respectively. However, according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 7, only two light-emitting diodes of different colors can produce a luminous decorative effect with 3 different colors, wherein, in this example, blue and red are used of light produces a third color, violet light.

In FIG. 8, three light-emitting tubes 801, 802 and 803 are arranged separately, but connected at their bottom ends. The tube is provided with blue and red light emitting diodes 804 and 805 respectively. The two LEDs are located at the bottom of the tubes. The blue light emitted by the blue LED 804 will be transmitted to the tubes 801 and 802 , and the red light emitted by the red LED 805 will be transmitted to the tubes 803 and 802 . Thus, tube 802 receives both blue and red light, the result of which is mixed to form violet light. The gap 806 at the bottom of the tube can help the light from the LED 804 to travel to the tube 801 , but prevent the light from the LED 804 from passing to the tube 803 . Of course, the principle is the same in the other direction. The gap 806 can help the light from the LED 805 to transmit to the tube 803 , but prevent the light from the LED 805 from being transmitted to the tube 801 .

Of course, in principle, a third colored LED can be used as the light source for the tube 802 in the middle. However, this increases the complexity and manufacturing cost of the device. Especially if a larger number of color tubes is required, for example, 5 or 7 color tubes, this approach will make the system or device very complicated. And, in fact, LEDs in certain colors, such as purple, are not currently available on the market.

It can be seen that the illuminated decorative part of the cordless telephone base shown in FIG. 7 has the shape of a crown. Crown shapes with illuminated decorative tubes or stripes are even more attractive. And adding a small spherical glow to the top of the tube to simulate a glowing pearl further adds to the appeal. Figure 9 shows such an example. In addition, other than small spherical glowing objects, other shapes, which are attractive and suitable for lighting, can be used for placement at the top of the tube.

Fig. 10 has shown another embodiment of the present utility model, and it is the handset of a cordless telephone, and there is the luminous tube of decorative semicircle shape at its top. This semi-circular lighted tube can also be used in conjunction with an incoming telephone signal, a new caller identification signal, or an indicator that the phone is busy.

The embodiments of the utility model have been described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that without departing from the essential features of the utility model, various modifications or improvements can be made, and these modifications or improvements all belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
