BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
   1. Field of the Invention 
   The present invention relates to decorative lighting equipment, and in particular, to a plurality of lighting elements such as miniature decorative lamps divided in several individual groups which are hung on a structural framework and configurated into special patterns of various artistic contours to exhibit a unique and dynamical sensitization lighting effect. 
   2. Description of the Prior Art 
   Glittering miniature lamps are favorite decorative articles in festival occasions and Christmas time, or for patio and garden lighting, and also applicable for advertisement. In bygone time, marvelous sensitization effect cannot be fully attained owing to limited capacity of unit controller and a power circuit that restricts amount of lamps allowable to be installed thereof. The conventional decorative lighting which is usually hanging a plurality of miniature lamps on trees or along extended ropes and glittering alternatively the adjacent lamps is too monotonous. Besides, the trees and ropes are difficult to be configurated into a desired contour, and for lighting a large area using a lot of lamps, a large controller and a big conductor size is required which calls for expensive installation cost. 
   SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
   For rectifying the aforesaid disadvantages inherent to the conventional technique for decorative lighting, an object of the present invention is to provide a decorative lighting equipment which can be configurated into specially unique patterns of various artistic contours by hanging plurality of miniature lamps or LEDs on a preformed structural framework so as to attain an unique and appealing lighting effect. 
   Another object of the present invention is to provide a decorative lighting equipment that a plurality of miniature lamps or LEDs is divided in several groups to glitter alternatively one after another or keep constantly turning on according to individual controls so as to reduce the capacity of the unit controller size and the conductor size as well.

   DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT 
   Referring to  FIG. 1 , the decorative lighting equipment of the present invention comprises a structural framework  1  and a string of lamps  2 , the framework  1  is configurated in a tree shape on which several conductors  11  are meandering along. The conductors  11  are connected to a power supply socket  13  via a functional gang controller  12 . A plurality of lighting elements (LEDs or miniature lamps)  21  is mutually connected in series or combined series and parallel maimer with the conductors  11  and respectively distributed in a relevant position. The lighting elements  21  are divided into lamp groups  22 ,  23  having different contours in the manner the group  22  is constantly turned on (like “◯” for a constantly lit lamp) while the other groups  23 ,  24  are alternatively glittering (like “{circle around (1)}{circle around (2)} . . . ” for a glittering lamp). All the lamp groups  22 ,  23 ,  24  are connected to the gang controller  12  and a pilot wire  20  is drawn out from the controller  12  for controlling operation of aforesaid lamp groups so as to achieve a dynamic sensitized decorative lighting effect. 
   Meanwhile, various embodiments developed from the foregoing basic aspect will be given below: 
   In the second embodiment shown in  FIG. 2 , two constantly turned on lamp groups  31 ,  32  are installed at two lower sides of the framework  1  with each occupying one side, while two alternatively glittering lamp groups  33 ,  34  are installed on upper portion of the framework  1  to form a round snowman figure. All lamp groups  31 ,  32 ,  33 ,  34  are connected to a gang controller  13 . 
   In the third embodiment shown in  FIG. 3 , constantly turned on lamp groups  41 ,  42 ,  43  are stacked up like ladder stages at the lower portion of the framework  1 , while two cordial shaped alternatively glittering lamp groups  44 ,  45  are occupying respectively the top and the middle portions thereof. 
   In the fourth embodiment shown in  FIG. 4 , a Δ shaped constantly, turned on lamp groups  51  and a Δ shaped glittering lamp groups  52  are disposed along the twigs of the tree-shaped framework  1  in the manner each group occupies outerside and innerside of right and left twigs alternatively so that the whole structure may look like a waving wand when the lamp groups are energized. 
   In the fifth embodiment shown in  FIG. 5 , a sting of constantly turned on lamp group  62  is allayed around the profile of the framework  1  in the manner encircling another sting of glittering lamp group  61 . 
   In the sixth embodiment shown in  FIG. 6 , several alternatively glittering lamp groups T 1 , T 2 , T 3  . . . are hung orderly on the framework  1  in a stepped arrangement so as to glitter in a staggering manner. 
   In the seventh embodiment shown in  FIG. 7 , several alternatively glittering lamp groups  81 ,  82 ,  83  . . . are hung along the twigs of the tree shaped framework  1  in a sloping manner. 
   In the eighth embodiment shown in  FIG. 8 , alternatively glittering lamp groups  91 ,  92  . . . are hung at random on the tree shaped framework  1 . 
   In the ninth embodiment shown in  FIG. 9 , the glittering lamp groups  2   a  are configurated in an umbrella shape. 
   In the tenth embodiment shown in  FIG. 10 , the glittering lamp groups  2   b  are configurated in a cross truss shape. 
   In the eleventh embodiment shown in  FIG. 11 , the glittering lamp groups  2   c  are configurated in a S shape. 
   As for connector means for individual lamp groups, a plug  3   a  is provided as shown in FIG.  12 . 
   The present invention may be embodied in many other forms without departing from the scope thereof which should be determined by the appended claims and the legal equivalents father than by the examples given.
