[0024] This utility model proposes an ice hockey.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-4 In one embodiment of the present invention, the ice puck includes a shell 100, a light-emitting device 200, a power supply 300, and a magnetic induction switch 400.

[0026] The housing 100 is at least partially transparent to light; a light-emitting device 200 is disposed inside the housing 100 and can emit light to the outside through the transparent portion of the housing 100; a power supply 300 is electrically connected to the light-emitting device 200; and a magnetic induction switch 400 is disposed inside the housing 100 and electrically connected to the power supply 300, used to control the conduction or cutoff of the circuit between the light-emitting device 200 and the power supply 300 according to changes in the external magnetic field.

[0027] In this embodiment, the shell 100 of the ice puck is made of a light-transmitting material, preferably a semi-transparent polyurethane material. This semi-transparent polyurethane material provides low-temperature resistance and can function normally even at -30°C. The surface of the ice puck is treated with a frosted finish, resulting in more uniform and aesthetically pleasing illumination. Furthermore, the UV-printed patterns on the surface are more attractive and durable. The combination of the light-transmitting shell 100 and the light-emitting device 200 allows the ice puck to be observed even in dark environments, enhancing the user experience in nighttime or low-light conditions. A power supply 300 is also installed inside the ice puck to power the light-emitting device 200. To prevent the ice puck from consuming power when not in use, a magnetic induction switch 400 is installed inside the shell 100 and electrically connected to the power supply 300. When an external magnetic object 600 is brought near the ice puck, the ice puck automatically controls its illumination state in response to changes in the external magnetic field, increasing interactivity and fun.

[0028] In one embodiment, the light-emitting device 200 includes a controller 210, a light-emitting element 220, a vibration sensor 230, and a circuit board 240. The light-emitting element 220 and the vibration sensor 230 are electrically connected to the controller 210. The vibration sensor 230 is used to detect vibration signals. The controller 210 is used to control the light-emitting element 220 to emit light or turn off according to the vibration signals.

[0029] In this embodiment, the controller 210, the light-emitting element 220, and the vibration sensor 230 are all integrated on the circuit board 240 and electrically connected. The vibration sensor 230 is responsible for detecting the movement state of the hockey puck. When the hockey puck is hit or moves, it transmits a signal to the controller 210. Based on the received vibration signal, the controller 210 controls the on / off state of the light-emitting element 220, thereby realizing the illumination or extinguishing of the light. Through the combination of the vibration sensor 230 and the controller 210, the hockey puck can automatically emit light during movement, significantly improving the visual performance and user experience of the game, making the game process more vivid and interesting.

[0030] Some hockey pucks use a disposable power supply design, which requires the entire puck to be replaced once the power is depleted. This not only increases the cost of use but also generates a lot of waste, which is not in line with the concept of environmental protection.

[0031] In one embodiment, the ice puck includes a charging copper post 250, which is electrically connected to the power supply 300 device for charging the power supply 300 device.

[0032] In this embodiment, when the puck's battery is low, simply connect an external charging device to the charging copper post, and current will flow smoothly into the power supply device through the copper post. After charging is complete, the puck can be used again. Using a copper post for charging is more durable than a regular charging port and also makes the puck fit more securely.

[0033] The durability of the charging copper pillars makes the overall structure of the hockey puck more robust, reducing malfunctions caused by damage to charging components and extending the puck's lifespan. At the same time, by repeatedly charging the puck, it can continue to function, avoiding the resource consumption and waste generated by frequent puck replacements, truly practicing the concept of environmental protection, and also reducing the cost of long-term use.

[0034] There are two charging copper pillars 250, which are electrically connected to the power supply 300 device to charge the power supply 300 device. This makes charging more convenient, stable and fast. The charging copper pillars 250 are seamlessly connected to the main body and do not require additional glue.

[0035] In one embodiment, the housing 100 is provided with a mounting groove 110, the light-emitting device 200 is disposed in the mounting groove 110, and an adhesive layer is provided between the light-emitting device 200 and the mounting groove 110, the adhesive layer being used for waterproofing and moisture-proofing.

[0036] In this embodiment, a mounting groove 110 is provided in the middle of the housing 100, and the light-emitting device 200 is fixed therein. To ensure that the light-emitting device 200 is stable and does not shake during ice hockey, an adhesive layer is provided between the light-emitting device 200 and the mounting groove 110. Liquid polyurethane adhesive is injected through a potting process to completely encapsulate the light-emitting device 200 and bond it to the main body of the housing 100, which significantly improves the impact resistance, moisture-proof sealing and installation stability of the device.

[0037] In one embodiment, the bottom surface of the housing 100 is provided with a first opening 120 and a charging positioning hole 130. The charging positioning hole 130 is used for positioning the charging device 700. The first opening 120 is connected to the mounting groove 110. One end of the charging copper pillar 250 is connected to the first opening 120 to form a charging interface 140. The other end of the charging copper pillar 250 is electrically connected to the circuit board 240.

[0038] In this embodiment, since there are two charging copper pillars 250, there are also two corresponding first openings 120. One end of the charging copper pillar 250 is connected to the circuit board 240, and the other end is aligned and connected to the first opening 120 to form a charging interface 140. The charging positioning hole 130 of the housing 100 is used for positioning the charging device 700. Through the structure of the first opening 120 and the charging positioning hole 130, the precise positioning and connection of the charging interface 140 is achieved. This design not only improves the stability and reliability of the charging interface 140, but also enhances the ease of use and safety of the hockey puck.

[0039] In one embodiment, the light-emitting device 200 has at least one light-emitting element 220 on the side facing the charging interface 140, and the light-emitting element 220 is distributed circumferentially along the circuit board 240.

[0040] In this embodiment, the light-emitting device 200 is provided with a light-emitting element 220, which can be a light strip, LED beads, light bulb, etc. Preferably, in this embodiment, LED beads are used as the light-emitting element 220. Several LED beads are distributed circumferentially along the circuit board 240. This is firstly to keep the weight of the hockey puck balanced around its perimeter, and secondly to make the light source of the light-emitting device 200 more uniform when projected onto the main body. LEDs consume less power, have a longer lifespan, and can reduce labor costs and replacement costs. LED beads do not contain harmful substances such as mercury, making them environmentally friendly. At the same time, the light-emitting device can emit light sources of different colors to increase children's interest in hockey.

[0041] In one embodiment, the housing 100 includes a counterweight cover 150, and a groove 160 is provided on the top surface of the housing 100. The groove 160 communicates with the mounting groove 110, and the counterweight cover 150 is detachably mounted on the groove 160.

[0042] In this embodiment, the main body of the housing 100 includes a counterweight cover 150, which is detachably disposed in the groove 160 on the top surface of the housing 100. The counterweight cover 150 has a certain weight, which can make the ice hockey puck balanced and less prone to tipping over. This not only improves the balance and stability of the ice hockey puck, but also facilitates the installation and removal of the light-emitting device 200.

[0043] In one embodiment, a fastener 170 is further included, which includes a screw 171 and a nut 172. The counterweight cover 150 is provided with a first mounting hole 151, and the bottom surface of the housing 100 is provided with a second mounting hole 152, which penetrates the top and bottom surfaces of the housing 100. The nut 172 is installed in the second mounting hole 152, and the screw 171 passes through the first mounting hole 151 and is inserted into the second mounting hole 152 to connect with the nut 172.

[0044] In this embodiment, the ice puck also employs a screw 171 and nut 172 structure to assist in fixing the light-emitting device 200. Specifically, the counterweight cover 150 is provided with a first mounting hole 151, and the bottom surface of the housing 100 is provided with a corresponding second mounting hole 152. During assembly, the screw 171 passes through the first mounting hole 151 and the second mounting hole 152 in sequence and is then locked with the nut 172, thereby firmly fixing the counterweight cover 150 to the housing 100. This not only simplifies the assembly process of the housing 100 and the counterweight cover 150, but also significantly improves the stability of the connection between the two.

[0045] In addition, see Figure 3 as well as Figure 8 The mounting slot 110 is provided with a third mounting post 180, while the circuit board 240 has at least one positioning slot 241. When the circuit board 240 is installed in the inner cavity of the housing 100, it is accurately positioned by the snap-fit ​​cooperation between the third mounting post 180 and the positioning slot 241, which further enhances the fixing effect of the light-emitting device 200.
