Abstract

An objective of the present invention is to provide a cork with a light which can preserve sufficient rigidity in the cork proper, and can be reused. This cork with a light comprises a hollow cylindrical part (12), a retaining part (13), a light source unit (14), and a connecting part (15). The hollow cylindrical part has an inner circumference radius (12a) which is larger by a prescribed gap than an outer circumference radius (11a) of a coin cell (11), and is electrically conductive. The retaining part has a thickness (13a) which is thinner than the gap, is mounted upon the outer circumference lateral face of the coin cell, and is electrically insulated. The light source unit has one electrical wire (14a) which is electrically connected to a lower electrode (11b) of the coin cell, and another electrical wire (14b) which is electrically connected to the inner circumference lateral face of the hollow cylindrical part. The connecting part has one conducting wire (15a) which is electrically connected to the inner circumference lateral face of the hollow cylindrical part, and another conducting wire (15b) which is electrically connected to an upper electrode (11c) of the coin cell.
