         TECHNOLOGY  
         [0002]    This invention is an illuminant design device, functional and ornamental, that can be either a design device or an object to display an exhibit.  
         DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART  
         [0003]    With the improvement of living standards, people have greater expectations for their personal artifacts nowadays. Daily goods like brush pots, name card boxes, jewelry boxes, or gift boxes are expected to be functional and beautiful. However, the surface of those goods, plated or polished, can only be visible in the light. Therefore, we have been always working on how to create an illuminant design device to enhance ornamental and practical functions. This invention, the solution to the problems, has been designed based on our valuable experiences in the aspects of research, development, and marketing.  
         SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION  
         [0004]    The primary objective of this invention is to create an illuminant design device to enhance the ornamental functions of our daily goods.  
           [0005]    The secondary objective of this invention is to create an illuminant design device to display the personal artifact to enhance their ornamental and practical functions. To achieve the above objectives, we have created an illuminant design device including a design device body, transparent or semi-transparent, a battery container at one side of the device, a battery plug under the battery container with positive and negative points, and a battery inside the battery plug. The battery should be connected to the lamp bulb. The device itself can be an ordinary brush pot, jewelry box, gift box, name card box and so on. The device itself should have the capacity for at least one exhibit such as a mineral, watch, jewelry, and gift, goods, glassware, picture, etc. . . . . The exhibit can be solid, liquid, or the mixture of solid and liquid. The exhibit may be audible and flavored. The exhibit can be sealed inside of the design device or be regarded as one unit with the design device. The exhibit can be capped or uncapped inside of the design device. The design device can be set on any kind of surface, suspended, or soaked in the liquid partly or completely.  
           [0006]    To further illustrate this invention and its functions, the detailed specifications and descriptions are as follows:

       DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS  
       [0024]    Referring to FIG. 1, the three-dimensional picture of this invention, and the FIG. 2, the perspective picture of this invention. As shown in the drawings, this design device has a brush pot  10 . The battery container  12  is under the brush pot  10 . The battery plug  14 , under the battery container  12 , has a cathode  16 , an anode  18 , and a battery  20  inside. The battery  20  is connected to the cathode  16  and the anode  18 . The lamp  22 , on the top of battery plug  14 , has at least one LED inside. The lamp  22  is connected to positive conducting wire  24  and negative conducting wire  26 . Since the positive conducting wire  24  and the negative conducting wire  26  is connected to the positive point  16  and the negative point  18  each, the lamp  22  is electrically connected to the battery  20 . The timing device  28 , inside of the battery plug  14 , is electrically connected to the lamp  22  as well. The battery container  12  has an electricity plug. Please refer to FIG. 3, one three-dimensional picture of the application of this invention. As shown in the drawing, the design device, holding the stationery  30 , can be a brush pot  10 . The lamp bulb  22  of the brush pot  10  is electronically connected to the battery  20  through the positive conducting wire  24  and the negative conducting wire  26 . The lamp  22  can emit the projected lights to the brush pot  10 , transparent or semi-transparent, and thus create an ornamental function. The brush pot can not only hold stationery  30  but also decorate the environment. When the lamp  22  emits light, the timing device  28  will time and the lamp  22  will emit another color of light after a certain period of time. The timing device can be directly packaged into the lamp  22 . The brush pot  10  can display at least one exhibit. The exhibit can be a watch or the mineral  32  such as natural gem, artificial gem, and semi-gem, crystal, amber, colored glaze, and transparent and semi-transparent mineral. The projected lights from the lamp  22  through the mineral  32  will be deflected and thus have more colorful and brilliant lights. This enhances the ornamental function of the brush pot  10 .  
         [0025]    Referring to FIG. 4, another three-dimensional picture of the application of this invention. Different from FIG. 3, the design device here is the paperweight  40 . The lamp  22 , above the battery container  12  (that is at the bottom of the paperweight  40 ) and on the upper side of the paperweight  40 , will emit lights to the paperweight  40  and the mineral  32  to enhance their ornamental functions. Several sets of battery containers  12  and lamps  12  can be put into the design device to improve the brightness. The battery container  12  can have an electric plug.  
         [0026]    To sum up, this Illuminant Design Device is designed to serve any personal artifact, it can be decorated by the projected lights from the lamp  22 , and can display other exhibits as well. The device can be united with other designs like a brush pot or name card box. Therefore, this invention is definitely profitable and state-of-the-art. It is in conformity with the regulations of the patent laws. Your prompt approval of the patent application will be highly appreciated.
