US Patent 9366402 Electronic lighting device and method for manufacturing same

An electronic lighting device may comprise an enclosure, a flame component, and an electrically powered driving mechanism. The flame component may be movably supported or suspended on the enclosure, and may comprise a first portion which is of a flame-like shape. The first portion may be exposed above the top of the enclosure. Light from a light-emitting element may intersect with the surface of the first portion so that the light projects onto the surface of the first portion. The electrically powered driving mechanism may be disposed adjacent the flame component and can apply a force on the flame component to actuate the flame component to sway or swing. By the present application, a visual experience of true fire can be achieved and an interestedness and appreciation can be improved.
