ABSTRACT:

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a lantern, and in particular to a floatable, waterproof and telescopic lantern (FWCL).
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
There are a variety of lanterns such as waterproof lanterns, telescopic lanterns etc., but are short of floatable, waterproof and telescopic lanterns.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The objective of the present invention is to provide a structurally floatable, waterproof and telescopic lantern.
The present invention provides a lantern which includes a base, a telescopic shade, a top decorative cover, a handle and a connecting ring. A recess is formed on the lower part of the outside wall of the telescopic shade and a waterproof ring is inside the recess, which provides a waterproof structure. A vent hole is opened at the top so as to make the telescopic shade collapse freely, a guide through-hole is opened at the center of the upper cap of the base and the upper part of a socket support goes through that hole and can move up and down, a spring socket is formed on the lower part of the socket support and a spring is inside the socket, the elastic force of the spring can move the socket support up and down. A contact switch is disposed in the lantern circuit so that when the socket support moves up to make the bronze pieces on its both sides contact the bronze piece on the lower face of the upper cap of the base, the lantern circuit will turn-on and bulb will light-on; when the socket support is pressed down, the lantern will turn-off. The lantern can achieve the objective of the present invention.
