Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of game equipment, in particular to a ball shooting mechanism and a ball game equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the prior art, there are various children's amusement equipment, and children are trained by using balls, which can exercise the ability of children to coordinate hands and eyes when aiming.

[0003] For example, a bowling shooting game machine is disclosed in Chinese Patent Application No. CN202122548516.8, which includes a base, at least one target device, a shooting device for shooting balls, a target recovery device for returning the target device to the initial position, a ball recovery device for collecting the shot balls, and a control device. The target recovery device is arranged at one end of the base, and the target device is rotatably arranged on the target recovery device. The shooting device is fixedly arranged at the other end of the base. The input end of the ball recovery device is arranged at one end of the base, and the ball recovery device extends along one side of the base to the other end of the base. The target recovery device and the ball recovery device are electrically connected to the control device. The device disclosed in the application can help children understand the rules of the bowling game and also exercise their hand-eye coordination ability through the shooting game.

[0004] However, in the application, the shooting principle of the ball requires children to manually pull the handle to drive the transmission rod in front of it to retract backward. When the child releases the handle, the transmission rod and the handle will return to the initial position under the action of the spring, and then the ball in the shooting base will be shot out to achieve the purpose of hitting the target. This shooting method requires children to overcome the resistance of the spring during the pulling process, which requires a high elastic coefficient of the spring. Since children's arm strength is relatively weak, if the spring force is reduced, the shooting force of the ball will be small, which will affect the shooting accuracy of the ball. If the spring elasticity is too large, it will be difficult for children to pull the handle to shoot the ball. SUMMARY

[0034] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] like Figures 1-11 The illustrated pinball firing mechanism 1 includes: a base 11, a rotating disk assembly 12 for holding the pinball, a handle assembly 13 for controlling the rotation of the rotating disk assembly 12, a firing plate 14 for striking the pinball, an elastic component 15, a first drive assembly 16 for overcoming the elastic force of the elastic component 15 to rotate the firing plate 14, and a control button 17; the rotating disk assembly 12 is rotatably connected to the base 11, and the handle assembly 13 is rotatably connected to the base 11; the rotating disk assembly 12 is also drively connected to the handle assembly 13; the firing plate 14 is rotatably connected to the rotating disk assembly 12, and the firing... A transmission assembly 18 is provided below the plate 14; one end of the elastic component 15 is fixedly connected to the transmission assembly 18; the other end of the elastic component 15 is fixedly connected to the rotating disk assembly 12; the first drive assembly 16 is fixedly connected to the rotating disk assembly 12; a cam 161 that can abut against the transmission assembly 18 is fixedly provided on the drive end of the first drive assembly 16, and when the cam 161 abuts against the transmission assembly 18, the elastic component 15 is in a stretched state; the control button 17 is fixedly provided on the base 11, and the control button 17 is electrically connected to the first drive assembly 16.

[0037] Specifically, in order to make the user no longer need to use their own arm strength to overcome the spring force in the process of firing the ball, the first drive assembly 16 capable of driving the firing plate 14 to rotate is arranged on the base 11, and the first drive assembly 16 adopts a drive motor in the application, which can be a stepper motor or a servo motor, or other principles of motor capable of controlling the rotation of the cam 161. In the rotating process, the cam 161 on the drive shaft can drive the cam 161 to rotate, and the cam 161 will abut with the transmission assembly 18 in the rotating process, and with the rotation of the cam 161, the distance between the edge of the cam 161 and the drive shaft center will be farther and farther away, so that the transmission assembly 18 will be pushed outward, and the transmission assembly 18 will be driven by the cam 161 to overcome the elastic force of the elastic assembly 15 and rotate outward, and in the application, the elastic assembly 15 is a tension spring, and after the transmission assembly 18 rotates outward, it will drive the upper firing plate 14 to rotate backward, when the user presses the control button 17, the first drive device drives the cam 161 to continue transmission, and the edge of the cam 161 passes the transmission assembly 18, that is, the cam 161 no longer abuts with the transmission assembly 18, so that the transmission assembly 18 will be driven by the elastic assembly 15 to transmit forward quickly, and then the ball on the rotating disc assembly 12 will be fired. In the application, the first drive assembly 16 overcomes the elastic force of the elastic assembly 15 to pull the firing plate 14 backward, and the operator only needs to control the direction and press the button, so as to complete the firing of the ball. Compared with the ball firing device in the prior art, the ball firing mechanism 1 of the application does not depend on the strength of the user to control the effect of the ball firing, and can have a higher application range.

[0038] Further, as Figure 2 、 Figure 4As shown, the rotating disc assembly 12 comprises a disc 121, a first bearing 122, a fixed plate 123 and a positioning box 124; the transmission assembly 18 comprises a first transmission rod 181, a transmission plate 182, a second transmission rod 183, a second bearing 184 and a third bearing 185 which can abut against the cam 161; the inner ring of the first bearing 122 is fixedly connected with the base 11, the outer ring of the first bearing 122 is fixedly connected with the disc 121, and the outer ring of the first bearing 122 is further fixedly connected with the fixed plate 123; the edge of the fixed plate 123 is provided with external teeth 125; the external teeth 125 are in transmission connection with the handle assembly 13; the positioning box 124 is fixedly connected with the lower surface of the fixed plate 123, and the body of the first driving assembly 16 is fixedly connected with the positioning box 124; the top end of the first transmission rod 181 is fixedly connected with the firing plate 14, the inner ring of the second bearing 184 is fixedly connected with the first transmission rod 181, and the outer ring of the second bearing 184 is fixedly connected with the fixed plate 123; the bottom end of the first transmission rod 181 is fixedly connected with one end of the transmission plate 182, and the top end of the second transmission rod 183 is fixedly connected with the other end of the transmission plate 182; the inner ring of the third bearing 185 is fixedly connected with the second transmission rod 183; one end of the elastic assembly 15 is fixedly connected with the other end of the transmission plate 182, and the other end of the elastic assembly 15 is fixedly connected with the side wall of the positioning box 124; in the case that the cam 161 abuts against the outer ring of the third bearing 185, the elastic assembly 15 is in a stretched state.

When the cam 161 pushes the second transmission rod 183 to move, the first transmission rod 181 and the striking plate 14 above can be driven to rotate. When the cam 161 rotates through a predetermined angle, the edge of the cam 161 no longer abuts against the second transmission rod 183, and the other end of the transmission plate 182 will rotate in the opposite direction under the pull of the spring, so that the striking plate 14 will rebound quickly, and the ball at the center of the disc 121 will be hit.
