Abstract

An inflatable display with dynamic lighting effect has an inflatable body, an air pump inflating the inflatable body, and a lighting assembly mounted inside the inflatable body for providing dynamic lighting variations. The lighting assembly has a light housing, a power supply, a lighting module, and a refracting module mounted in the light housing. The lighting module and the refracting module rotate relative to each other. As light beams emitted from the lighting module pass through the refracting module, the light beams are mixed and refracted. With relative rotation of the lighting module and the refracting module, the light beams can project outwards to further penetrate through the inflatable body at different angles covering a large area to form the dynamic lighting variations and to exhibit the dynamic lighting effect.

Claims (17)

1. A light comprising:

a housing including a hollow interior and defining an open front portion and a rear portion opposite the open front portion;

a power supply mounted in the hollow interior of the housing;

a motor mounted in the housing, the motor electrically connected with the power supply and having a motor shaft extending in the direction of the open front portion of the housing;

a lighting module mounted in the housing between the motor and the open front portion of the housing, the lighting module including:

a circuit board electrically connected with the power supply, the circuit board defining a bore hole that extends around the motor shaft, and

multiple light emitting diode (LED) units electrically mounted on a side of the circuit board, the LED units facing toward the open front portion of the housing;

a refractive lens connected to the motor shaft, the refractive lens having multiple multi-angle refractive convex-lens bodies formed on a side of the refractive lens that faces away from the rear portion of the housing; and

a light shade mounted on the opening of the housing, the light shade having multiple multi-angle refractive convex-lens bodies formed on a side of the light shade facing the side of the refractive lens having the multiple multi-angle refractive lens bodies formed thereon;

wherein the driving shaft of the motor rotates the refractive lens with respect to the light shade and the lighting module.

2. The light of claim 1 , further comprising a power cord extending out of the housing.

3. The light as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the light shade is hemispherical.

4. The light as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

a condenser disposed around the driving shaft of the motor between the refractive lens and the lighting module, the condenser having a rear surface facing the lighting module, wherein multiple cone protrusions are separately formed on and protrude from the rear surface of the condenser;

wherein the multiple cone protrusions correspond in position to the LED units of the lighting module.

5. The light of claim 1 , further comprising a control unit adapted to control the LED units in a first mode where the LED units emit light continuously, and in a second mode where the LED units flicker.

6. The light of claim 1 , wherein the LED units emit light beams in different colors.
