Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of toys, and particularly to automatic toys. Background Art

[0002] At present, the remote-controlled toys sold on the market are usually controlled by a remote control device such as a remote controller to control the movement of the toy. However, most of them can only control the toy to move forward and turn, and cannot achieve coherent fighting interaction with the toy through the remote controller. The toy has poor coordination, low simulation degree and low interest. Moreover, most of the existing automatic toys equipped with an ejection device only have a single ejection function and are not configured in combination with the overall structure of the toy. The toy structure is complex and lacks interest. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an automatic toy. By setting a control unit and a driving device, the control unit controls the driving motor to rotate forward / backward, drives the driving component to rotate, enables the clamping component to release the limitation on the buckling component, and the ejection part is elastically ejected outward under the action of the corresponding ejection device. The driving device and the ejection device are set in combination with the overall structure, simplifying the structure and avoiding the problems of poor coordination and interactivity of the toy, low simulation degree and low interest.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention is implemented by the following technical means:

[0005] An automatic toy, comprising a toy body in the shape of a simulated animal, a driving device and a control unit. The toy body includes a trunk and an ejection part detachably installed in the trunk through a first installation groove. The ejection part compresses a corresponding ejection device in the first installation groove through a buckling component. The driving device and the control unit are installed in the trunk. The driving device includes a driving motor, a driving component pivotally connected to the output shaft of the driving motor, and a clamping component arranged on the side of the driving motor corresponding to the ejection part. The end of the driving component extends to a first groove track on the side of the clamping component. One end of the clamping component extends into a first hole position on the side of the first installation groove to clamp the buckling component, and the other end is accommodated in a corresponding third installation groove in the middle of the trunk through a first spring. By controlling the driving motor to rotate forward / backward through the control unit, the driving component is driven to rotate by the driving motor, so that the clamping component is separated from the buckling component, and the ejection part is elastically ejected outward under the action of the ejection device.

[0006] By setting a toy body with the shape of a simulated animal, the overall appearance is made more beautiful and the ornamental value is increased; the ejection part is installed on the side of the trunk through the first installation groove, and an ejection device is configured between the fastening part of the ejection part and the first installation groove. The first hole position extending from the clamping component to the side of the first installation groove is used to fix and limit the ejection part, saving the use space, simplifying the structure, facilitating processing and assembly. The ejection part is limited by the cooperation of the clamping component and the fastening part, effectively avoiding that the ejection part cannot be tightly fixed on the side of the trunk when the driving component is not started, which is convenient for the accommodation of the toy body; it is controlled by the control unit, and then realizes continuous interaction with the automatic toy, increasing the interactivity and interest; the driving motor is controlled by the control unit to rotate forward / backward, and the driving component is driven by the driving motor to rotate, so that the driving component offsets in the first groove track on the side of the clamping component, and then drives the clamping component to move. After the driving component rotates to a certain angle, the clamping component disengages from the fastening part, so that the ejection part corresponding to the clamping component bounces out under the elastic force of the ejection device, avoiding the problem of poor toy coordination, simplifying the structure and facilitating installation; the clamping component is accommodated in the third installation groove through the first spring, and the clamping component is reset by the first spring.

[0007] Preferably, the ejection device includes a second spring and an installation table. A first receiving groove adapted to receive the second spring is opened on one side of the installation table, and a connecting rod body extends outward in cooperation with the first receiving groove in the middle. After the connecting rod body passes through the second hole position at the end of the first installation groove, a first limiting member is installed at the end; a second receiving groove adapted to the fastening part is opened on the side of the installation table opposite to the connecting rod body. A first receiving groove for accommodating the second spring is opened on the side of the installation table. After the connecting rod body passes through the second hole position at the end of the first installation groove, the second spring of the ejection device is limited by the first limiting member, simplifying the structure; the ejection part is installed on the side of the trunk by pressing the fastening part into the second receiving groove, which is convenient for assembly.

[0008] Preferably, the fastening member includes a first fastening component and a second fastening component connected as a whole. When the ejection part is assembled to the side of the trunk part, the second fastening component compresses the ejection device. The first fastening component is fixedly connected to the trunk part. The maximum diameter width of the first fastening component is smaller than the minimum diameter width of the second fastening component, so that a clamping position suitable for the end of the clamping component is formed between the second fastening component and the ejection part. The maximum diameter width of the second fastening component is smaller than the minimum diameter width of the first installation groove. Setting the maximum diameter width of the second fastening component to be smaller than the minimum diameter width of the first installation groove facilitates the installation of the ejection part into the first installation groove. The maximum diameter width of the first fastening component is smaller than the minimum diameter width of the second fastening component, so that a clamping position suitable for the end of the clamping component is formed between the second fastening component and the ejection part. The clamping component extends into the first hole position on the side of the first installation groove and abuts against or clamps the fastening member through the clamping position, fixing the ejection part in the first installation groove, preventing the ejection part from not being fixed in the first installation groove before the drive motor is started and affecting the use effect.

[0009] Preferably, the clamping component includes a first clamping member and a second clamping member. The first groove rail is in an inverted U shape and is arranged at the bottom of the first clamping member. At least one second groove rail is opened in the middle of the first clamping member. The second clamping member cooperates with the second groove rail to protrude outwards to form a connecting fastener, fixing the first clamping member to the inner side wall of the trunk part. The clamping component is set to be formed by the fastening of the first clamping member and the second clamping member. The first clamping member is fixed to the inner side wall of the trunk part through the connecting fastener of the second clamping member. Under the action of the drive motor, the first clamping member displaces relative to the second clamping member through the second groove rail, enabling the ejection part to break away from the restriction of the first clamping member and pop outwards under the elastic force of the ejection device, which is convenient for assembly. Through the setting of the first groove rail and the second groove rail, the maximum angle that the drive motor can rotate and the maximum displacement that the clamping component can offset driven by the drive motor are limited, simplifying the structure.

[0010] Preferably, the ejection part includes a left arm and a right arm symmetrically installed on both sides of the trunk part. Both ends of the drive component extend to the first groove rails of the clamping components corresponding to the left arm and the right arm respectively. The control unit controls the drive motor to rotate forward / backward, thereby driving the drive component to rotate, enabling the clamping component to break away from the fastening member. The ejection part pops outwards under the action of the ejection device. By rotating the drive motor forward or backward, the left arm and the right arm correspondingly installed at both ends of the drive component pop out successively after breaking away from the restraint of the corresponding clamping components, increasing the fun and interactivity, and avoiding the difficulty of accommodating after the left and right arms pop out simultaneously.

[0011] Preferably, the drive motor cooperates with the clamping component, and second limit members are arranged on both sides of the output shaft to limit the forward / backward rotation angle of the drive component to 0-30°. The clamping component is accommodated in the corresponding third installation groove in the trunk through the first spring. By arranging the second limit members on both sides of the output shaft of the drive motor, the forward and backward rotation angles of the drive motor are limited, the service life of the power supply component and the automatic toy is prolonged, and excessive rotation angles are avoided, which affects the use.

[0012] Preferably, the toy body further includes a tail detachably installed on the trunk. At least one connection position is arranged at the end of the tail. The end of the trunk is provided with a locking groove track to cooperate with the connection position to fix the tail. The tail houses a power supply component connected to the control unit. Accommodating the power supply component in the tail simplifies the structure. At least one connection position is arranged at the end of the tail. Specifically, a locking groove track can be arranged at the end of the trunk to cooperate with the connection position to fix the tail. The connection position of the tail is inserted into the end of the trunk. After extending into the locking groove track, the tail is fixed to the end of the trunk by rotating the tail, so that the two are detachably and fixedly connected. And through the alignment and locking of the locking groove position and the connection position, installation misalignment is avoided, which affects the use effect and the overall appearance of the automatic toy.

[0013] Preferably, it further includes an attached signal transmitter and a signal receiver installed on the toy body. The control unit obtains the shooting signal sent by the signal transmitter through the signal receiver. A remote control is provided in cooperation with the automatic toy to increase the user's sense of participation. A signal transmitter is arranged on the remote control. Specifically, the remote control can be set in the shape of a firearm. The shooting signal is sent through the remote control, and the control unit obtains the shooting signal through the signal receiver installed on the toy body to control the drive motor to start or stop rotating forward / backward, the atomizer to spray or stop spraying, and the lighting component to emit light or stop emitting light.

[0014] The present invention has at least the following advantages:

[0015] By setting a toy body in the shape of a simulated animal, the overall appearance is made more beautiful, the ornamental value is increased, and in combination with the toy shape and the overall structure of the toy, the toy functions are enriched and the interest is improved;

[0016] The ejection part is installed on the side of the trunk through the first installation groove. An ejection device is arranged between the fastening part of the ejection part and the first installation groove. The ejection part is fixed and limited through the first hole position extending from the clamping component to the side of the first installation groove, saving the use space, simplifying the structure, and facilitating processing, assembly and accommodation;

[0017] The driving motor is controlled by a control unit to rotate forward / backward, and the driving motor drives the driving component to rotate in different directions, causing the driving component to shift in position within the first groove track on the side of the clamping component, thereby driving the clamping component to move. After the driving component rotates to a certain angle, the clamping component disengages from the fastening part, and the ejection part corresponding to the clamping component bounces outward under the elastic force of the ejection device, avoiding the problem of poor toy coordination and simplifying the structure;

[0018] The clamping component is accommodated in the third installation groove via the first spring, enabling the clamping component to complete reset. Description of the Drawings

Detailed Embodiments

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Embodiment

[0026] As Figures 1-5 , an automatic toy includes a toy main body 100 in the shape of an animal such as a simulated dinosaur, a driving device, and a control unit.

[0027] The toy main body 100 includes a trunk 101 and an ejection part 102 detachably installed on the side of the trunk 101 through a first installation groove 1021. The ejection part 102 refers to a body component of a certain simulated animal shape that is ejected from the toy main body 100 under the action of an ejection device 300. The ejection part 102 is provided with a fastening member 103 in cooperation with the first installation groove 1021. An ejection device is arranged in the first installation groove. After the ejection part 102 is ejected from the toy main body 100, the ejection part is reinstalled on the side of the trunk 101 of the toy main body 100 by pressing the fastening member 103 into the first installation groove, and the corresponding ejection device in the first installation groove is compressed by the fastening member. Here, the inside of the trunk 101 can be set as a central cavity, and installation slots can be set corresponding to each component. Specifically, the driving device can be installed in the corresponding slot inside the trunk 101, and the control unit (not shown in the figure) is installed on top of the driving device or at any position in the toy main body suitable for actual production use through the corresponding slot.

[0028] The driving device includes a driving motor 202, a driving component 203 pivotally connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 202, and a clamping component 204 disposed on the side of the driving motor 202 corresponding to the ejection part 102. The end of the driving component 203 extends outward to a first groove track 2041 on the side of the clamping component 204. To effectively and stably accommodate the ejection part 102 and prevent the ejection part 102 from shifting in position, which may affect the effect of ejecting from the toy main body 100, one end of the clamping component 204 extends into a first hole 1022 on the side of the first installation groove 1021 to clamp and limit the fastening part pressed into the first installation groove, thereby fixing the ejection part 102 to the side of the trunk part 101; the other end of the clamping component 204 is accommodated in a corresponding third installation groove (not shown in the figure) in the middle of the trunk part 101 via a first spring 205. After the driving motor 202 stops rotating, the clamping component 204 is reset by the first spring 205 so that the automatic toy can repeatedly eject and reinstall the ejection part 102; by controlling the driving motor 202 to rotate forward / backward by the control unit, the driving motor 202 drives the driving component 203 to rotate. The driving component 203 shifts in position to a certain extent within the first groove track 2041, driving the clamping component 204 to displace via the first groove track, causing the clamping component 204 to disengage from the fastening part 103. The ejection part 102 released from the restraint of the clamping component 204 is elastically ejected outward under the action of the ejection device 300. By controlling the driving motor 202 to stop rotating by the control unit, after the ejection is completed, the clamping component 204 is reset under the action of the first spring 205. The ejection part 102 ejected outside the toy main body is reinstalled on the side of the trunk part 101 by aligning the fastening part 103 with the first installation groove 1021 to achieve repeated ejection.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, to simplify the structure and facilitate assembly, the ejection device 300 includes a second spring 301 and a mounting table 302. On one side of the mounting table 302 facing the inner cavity of the trunk portion 101, a limiting lip protruding outward or a plurality of spaced-apart limiting bumps are provided on the outer edge of the side surface to form a first receiving groove 303 suitable for the second spring 301. On the side surface of the mounting table 302 corresponding to the first receiving groove 303, a connecting rod body 304 extends outward in cooperation with the first receiving groove 303. After the connecting rod body 304 passes through the second hole 1023 at the end of the first mounting groove 1021, a first limiting member (not shown in the figure) is installed at the end of the connecting rod body to limit the ejection device 300. Specifically, the limiting member can be set as a screw fixedly installed at the end of the connecting rod body 304, or a retaining piece or a retaining block of any other shape. Here, the outer diameter of the limiting member is larger than the maximum outer diameter of the second hole 1023. A second receiving groove (not shown in the figure) suitable for the fastening member 103 is formed on the side of the mounting table 302 opposite to the connecting rod body 304, so that when the ejection part is installed on the side of the trunk portion, the fastening member just presses on the second receiving groove. Of course, the maximum diameter width of the first receiving groove 303 here is not less than the outer diameter of the second spring 301, and the inner diameter of the second spring 301 is not less than the diameter width of the second hole 1023, so that the inner side wall of the end of the first mounting groove 1021 always abuts against the second spring 301 to limit the second spring 301 within the mounting table 302. The diameter width of the second hole 1023 is not less than the maximum diameter width of the connecting rod body 304. Here, the second hole 1023 can be set in any shape such as a circular hole shape or a square hole shape in cooperation with the connecting rod body, and the diameter of the second hole is at least 0.1 mm larger than the outer diameter of the connecting rod body 304, so that the connecting rod body 304 limited at the end can freely expand and contract within the second hole 1023 at the end. The mounting table is set according to the shape and size of the first mounting groove. The maximum outer diameter of the mounting table 302 is at least 0.1 mm smaller than the minimum inner diameter of the first mounting groove 1021. Of course, without limiting the present invention, the mounting table can be set as a sheet, the outer diameter of the mounting table is larger than the outer diameter of the second spring, and the second spring can be directly limited within the first mounting groove through the mounting table, the connecting rod body and the limiting member. Of course, to align the ejection device with the first mounting groove, avoid position deviation and facilitate assembly, alignment components such as limiting blocks can be provided on the mounting table of the ejection device, and corresponding clamping positions (not shown in the figure) can be provided within the first mounting groove. It should be noted that according to different actual needs, the second spring and the connecting rod body can be replaced with other ejection devices suitable for actual applications.

[0030] Preferably, the clamping component 204 is formed by snapping together a first clamping piece 2043 and a second clamping piece 2044. The second clamping piece is close to the output shaft of the driving motor. The end of the first clamping piece extends into a first hole position on the side of the first installation groove. Specifically, the first groove track 2041 is set to any shape suitable for the driving component 203 to extend into, which is dug at the bottom of the first clamping piece 2043. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, to save material usage and facilitate the assembly of the driving component 203, an opening is formed at the bottom of the first clamping piece 2043 as the first groove track, and the first groove track 2041 is set to an inverted U shape. The maximum diameter width of the part of the driving component extending into the first groove track is not greater than the length of the first groove track. At least one second groove track 2042 is formed in the middle of the first clamping piece. The second clamping piece 2044 cooperates with the second groove track 2042 to protrude outward to form a connecting fastener 2045, so that the connecting fastener 2045 is buckled in the second groove track 2042, and the first clamping piece 2043 and the second clamping piece 2044 are fixed to the inner side wall of the trunk part 101 through fixing parts such as screws passing through the middle hole position of the connecting fastener 2045. To not affect the movement of the first clamping piece 2043, the thickness of the connecting fastener 2045 is greater than the thickness of the first clamping piece 2043. For a firm connection and to prevent the first clamping piece from shifting, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, there are two second groove tracks 2042, and two corresponding connecting fasteners 2045 are provided. The setting positions of adjacent second groove tracks 2042 are adapted to the rotation track of the driving component 203, and the rotation angle range of the driving component 203 is limited by the minimum length of any second groove track 2042, and the maximum displacement that the clamping component 204 can shift under the drive of the driving motor 202 is also limited, simplifying the structure. When the driving motor 202 is started, the driving component 203 rotates to the side of the first groove track 2041, driving the first clamping piece 2043 to move. The first clamping piece 2043 displaces relative to the second clamping piece 2044, causing the ejection part 102 to be released from the restriction. The ejection part pops out outward under the elastic force of the ejection device 300. After the ejection part pops out, under the action of the first spring 205, the driving component is pushed through the clamping component, causing the driving component to complete the reset.

[0031] It should be noted that after the first clamping piece 2043 is reset under the action of the first spring 205, the end part extends into the first installation groove 1021 through the first hole position 1022 on the side of the first installation groove 1021. When the ejected ejection part 102 is reassembled to the side of the trunk part 101, the fastening part 103 abuts against the end of the first clamping piece 2043, and the compressed first spring 205 of the first clamping piece 2043 limits the side of the fastening part 103, fixing the fastening part 103 in the first installation groove 1021.

[0032] Of course, without limiting the automatic toy shown in the present invention, the positions of the first clamping member and the second clamping member can be interchanged; or the first groove rail can be arranged at the bottom of the second clamping member, the first clamping member is provided with the second groove rail, the first clamping member is fixed on the inner side wall of the trunk, and the end of the second clamping member is clamped with the fastening member, and the position of the second clamping member is offset by driving the assembly.

[0033] Preferably, the driving motor 202 cooperates with the clamping assembly 204, and second limiting members 2021 are arranged on both sides of the output shaft to limit the forward or reverse rotation angle of the driving assembly 203 to 0-30°. Of course, without limiting the automatic toy shown in the present invention, such as Figures 3-4 , the present invention can be implemented by any of the following implementation methods:

[0034] 1. The rotation angle of the driving assembly 203 is limited by the clamping assembly 204. Through the limitation of the clamping assembly 204, after the driving assembly 203 rotates to the side of the second groove rail 2042 of the clamping assembly 204 and abuts against the connecting fastener, the driving motor can no longer drive the clamping assembly 204 to displace. Here, the rotation time or rotation angle of the driving motor is preset in the control unit. Even if the clamping assembly 204 cannot be driven to displace any more, the driving motor will still rotate until it rotates to the preset rotation time or rotation angle and then stops rotating.

[0035] 2. The control unit controls the rotation angle of the driving motor. To extend the service life of the power supply assembly and the automatic toy and avoid excessive rotation angle affecting the use, in cooperation with the clamping assembly 204, the rotation angle of the driving assembly 203 is preset in the control unit. Specifically, it can be set that the driving assembly 203 stops rotating when the side of the second groove rail 2042 does not abut against the connecting fastener; or the driving assembly 203 stops rotating when the side of the second groove rail 2042 just abuts against the connecting fastener. The driving assembly 203 drives the first clamping member 2043 of the clamping assembly 204 to displace, and a certain degree of limitation is imposed on the first clamping member 2043 after stopping rotating.

[0036] 3. The rotation angle of the driving assembly 203 is limited by the second limiting member 2021. Here, the rotation time or rotation angle of the driving motor is preset in the control unit. Even if the driving assembly cannot be driven to rotate any more, the driving motor will still rotate until it rotates to the preset rotation time or rotation angle and then stops rotating. Preferably, it can be set that the driving assembly stops rotating when it abuts against or does not abut against the second limiting member. Here, the second groove rail 2042 does not abut against or just abuts against the connecting fastener. The driving assembly 203 drives the first clamping member 2043 of the clamping assembly 204 to displace, and a certain degree of limitation is imposed on the first clamping member 2043 after stopping rotating.

[0037] Preferably, the fastening member 103 includes a first fastening component 1031 and a second fastening component 1032 which are integrally connected. The first fastening component 1031 is fixedly connected to the trunk 101. When the ejection part 102 is assembled to the side of the trunk 101, the second fastening component 1032 compresses the ejection device 300. The maximum diameter width of the first fastening component 1031 is smaller than the minimum diameter width of the second fastening component 1032. A clamping position 1033 suitable for clamping the end of the clamping component 204 is formed between the second fastening component 1032 and the ejection part. The clamping component is clamped in the clamping position 1033, and the fastening member is limited and fixed through the first spring and the inner side wall of the first installation groove 1021, so as to fix the ejection part 102 in the first installation groove 1021. To facilitate the installation of the ejection part 102 into the first installation groove 1021, the maximum diameter width of the second fastening component is set to be smaller than the minimum diameter width of the first installation groove 1021. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in order to stably install the ejection part on the side of the trunk, an extension part 1034 extends outward from the end of the second fastening component to be fastened to a corresponding second accommodation groove on the side of the ejection device. The outer diameter of the extension part 1034 is not larger than the inner diameter of the second accommodation groove. Of course, here the second fastening component can also be directly pressed into the second accommodation groove, and the outer diameter of the second fastening component is not larger than the inner diameter of the second accommodation groove.

[0038] Preferably, the ejection parts 102 are symmetrically installed on the left arm 1041 and the right arm 1042 on both sides of the trunk 101. Both ends of the driving component 203 respectively extend to the first groove rails of the clamping components corresponding to the left arm 1041 and the right arm 1042. The control unit controls the driving motor 202 to rotate forward or backward, thereby driving the driving component 203 to rotate, so that the clamping component 204 is separated from the fastening member 103. After the left arm 1041 and the right arm 1042 correspondingly installed on both sides of the driving component 203 are released from the restraint of the corresponding clamping components 204, they are respectively ejected under the action of the corresponding ejection devices. It should be noted that if the first springs corresponding to the left arm 1041 and the right arm 1042 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the driving motor 202 with the symmetry plane of the left arm and the right arm as the symmetry plane, when the driving motor 202 rotates, it will drive any one of the clamping components 204 corresponding to the left arm 1041 or the right arm 1042 to shift in position, so that the left arm 1041 or the right arm 1042 is ejected. If the first springs 205 corresponding to the left arm 1041 and the right arm 1042 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the driving motor 202 with the rotation axis of the driving motor 202 as the center, when the driving motor 202 rotates, it will simultaneously drive the clamping components 204 corresponding to the left arm 1041 and the right arm 1042 to shift in position, so that the left arm 1041 and the right arm 1042 are ejected simultaneously.

[0039] Specifically, corresponding to the settings of the left arm and the right arm, any of the following implementation manners can be adopted:

[0040] 1. When the driving motor 202 rotates forward, the driving motor 202 drives the driving assembly 203 to rotate, so that the left-arm clamping assembly disengages from the left-arm fastening part, and the left arm springs outwards under the action of the left-arm ejection device; when the driving motor 202 rotates reversely, the driving motor 202 drives the driving assembly 203 to rotate, so that the right-arm clamping assembly disengages from the right-arm fastening part, and the right arm springs outwards under the action of the right-arm ejection device. Here, according to actual different needs, the left arm can be ejected first, or the right arm can be ejected first.

[0041] 2.

[0052] Obtain the shooting signal sent by the infrared transmitter through the infrared receiver;

[0053] Count the number of hits of the current shooting signal;

[0054] Judge whether the current number of hits reaches the preset scene mode value;

[0055] If the number of hits is 1 or 2, start the first scene mode, control the atomizer to spray, control the lighting component to emit bright light, and control the sound effect component to emit the first scene sound effect;

[0056] If the number of hits is 3 or 4, start the second scene mode, control the atomizer to spray, control the lighting component to emit bright light, and control the sound effect component to emit the second scene sound effect;

[0057] If the number of hits is 5, start the third scene mode, control the sprayer to spray, control the lighting component to emit light, control the sound effect component to emit the third scene sound effect, and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the left arm;

[0058] If the number of hits is 6, start the fourth scene mode, control the sprayer to spray, control the lighting component to emit light, control the sound effect component to emit the fourth scene sound effect, and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the right arm.

[0059] Of course, on the basis of the above implementation methods, according to different actual usage requirements, the following implementation schemes can be adopted for replacement:

[0060] 1. If the number of hits is 5, start the third scene mode, control the sprayer to spray, control the lighting component to emit light, control the sound effect component to emit the third scene sound effect, and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the right arm;

[0061] If the number of hits is 6, start the fourth scene mode, control the sprayer to spray, control the lighting component to emit light, control the sound effect component to emit the fourth scene sound effect, and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the left arm.

[0062] 2. If the number of hits is 5, start the third scene mode, control the sprayer to spray, control the lighting component to emit light, control the sound effect component to emit the third scene sound effect, and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the left arm;

[0063] If the number of hits is 6, start the fourth scene mode, control the sprayer to spray, control the lighting component to emit light, control the sound effect component to emit the fourth scene sound effect, and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the right arm.

[0064] 3. If the number of hits is 5, start the third scene mode, control the sprayer to spray, control the lighting component to emit light, control the sound effect component to emit the third scene sound effect, and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the right arm;

[0065] If the number of hits is 6, start the fourth scene mode, control the sprayer to spray, control the lighting component to emit light, control the sound effect component to emit the fourth scene sound effect, and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the left arm.

[0066] 4.

[0068] It should be noted that according to different actual usage requirements, switches or buttons corresponding to activating the demonstration mode, activating the scenario mode, and stopping can be set on the torso 101, and the demonstration mode and scenario mode are preset in the control unit. Among them, when the demonstration mode is activated, the automatic toy can walk automatically and complete additional functions such as automatic spraying, lighting, and sound production that are suitable for actual needs. Of course, without limiting the present invention, switches corresponding to any additional functions such as spraying, lighting, and sound production can also be set to further control spraying, lighting, sound production, etc.

[0069] Without limiting the automatic toy shown in the present invention, according to different actual needs, the preset scenario mode values can be appropriately changed or combined. The first scenario sound effect and the second scenario sound effect are correspondingly set to dinosaur calls, and the third scenario sound effect and the fourth scenario sound effect are correspondingly set to battle sound effects; or the first scenario sound effect and the second scenario sound effect are set to battle sound effects, and the third scenario sound effect and the fourth scenario sound effect are set to battle dinosaur calls; of course, the first scenario sound effect, the second scenario sound effect, the third scenario sound effect, and the fourth scenario sound effect can also be set to other sound effects that are the same or different.

[0070] It should be noted that when the number of hits is greater than 6 (in alternative solutions 4 and 5, when the number of hits is greater than 5), the drive motor can be controlled to stop rotating; or, other instructions can be controlled to be executed. For example, an imbalance device is set on the legs of the automatic toy, and when the number of hits reaches the preset scenario mode value, the imbalance device is activated to cause the automatic toy to fall, etc.

[0071] Of course, when no other functional components are added, or when the functional components are controlled by a separate switch, etc., the following implementation methods can be adopted.

[0072] Implementation method two:

[0073] Adopt a remote control method. The control unit presets the scenario mode. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a method applied to the automatic toy is further included. The control unit is used to implement the following methods:

[0074] Obtain the shooting signal sent by the infrared transmitter through the infrared receiver;

[0075] Count the number of hits of the current shooting signal;

[0076] Judge whether the current number of hits reaches the preset scenario mode value;

[0077] If the number of hits is 1, start the first scenario mode and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the left arm.

[0078] If the number of hits is 2, start the second scenario mode and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the right arm.

[0079] Of course, on the basis of the above implementation method, according to different actual usage requirements, the following implementation schemes can be adopted for replacement:

[0080] 1. If the number of hits is 1, start the first scenario mode and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the right arm.

[0081] If the number of hits is 2, start the second scenario mode and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the left arm.

[0082] 2. If the number of hits is 1, start the first scenario mode and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the left arm.

[0083] If the number of hits is 2, start the second scenario mode and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the right arm.

[0084] 3. If the number of hits is 1, start the first scenario mode and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the right arm.

[0085] If the number of hits is 2, start the second scenario mode and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the left arm.

[0086] 4. If the number of hits is 1, start the first scenario mode and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the left arm and the right arm.

[0087] 5. If the number of hits is 1, start the first scenario mode and control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the left arm and the right arm.

[0088] Without limiting the automatic toy shown in the present invention, according to different actual needs, the preset scenario mode values can be appropriately changed or combined. It should be noted that when the number of hits is greater than 2 (when the number of hits in replacement schemes 4 and 5 is greater than 1, or greater than the preset scenario mode value), the rotation of the motor drive can be controlled to stop; or, other instructions can be controlled to be executed. For example, an imbalance device is provided on the legs of the automatic toy, and when the number of hits reaches the preset scenario mode value, the imbalance device is started to cause the automatic toy to fall, etc.

[0089] The third implementation method:

[0090] In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, a switch is arranged on any part of the toy body in an automatic control manner, and the switch is electrically connected to the control unit.

[0091] After closing the switch, the control unit controls the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the left arm, and controls the drive motor 202 to stop rotating according to a preset rotation angle. After the left arm is ejected, under the elastic force of the corresponding first spring, the drive assembly 203 and the corresponding clamping assembly are reset. The control unit controls the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the right arm, and controls the drive motor 202 to stop rotating according to a preset rotation angle. After the right arm is ejected, the control unit controls the drive motor 202 to stop rotating, and under the elastic force of the corresponding first spring, the drive assembly 203 and the corresponding clamping assembly are reset.

[0092] Of course, on the basis of the above implementation methods, according to different actual usage requirements, the following replacement schemes can be adopted for replacement and combination to form new implementation schemes:

[0093] Replacement scheme: Replace the implementation scheme according to the different installation positions and ejection sequences of the left arm and the right arm. Specifically, it includes:

[0094] First: Control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the right arm; then control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the left arm.

[0095] Second: Control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the left arm; then control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the right arm.

[0096] Third: Control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the right arm; then control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the left arm.

[0097] Fourth: Control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the forward direction to eject the left arm and the right arm.

[0098] Fifth: Control the drive motor 202 to rotate in the reverse direction to eject the left arm and the right arm.

[0099] Of course, the different installation positions and ejection sequences of the left arm and the right arm have been described in the above embodiments, and will not be elaborated here.

[0100] It should be noted that the third of the above implementation methods is a preferred implementation and replacement scheme for realizing the ejection function of the present invention in an automatic control manner. For the automatic toy of the present invention, after configuring other functional component assemblies such as a light-emitting component, a spray device, a sound effect component, and an imbalance device, it can also be realized in an automatic control or remote control manner.

[0101] As described above, it is only the preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
