Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of children's toy technology, and in particular to a launcher and a launching toy. Background Technology

[0002] Some launching toys include a launcher and an object to be launched. The object to be launched is placed in a specific shape on the launcher. The object to be launched and the corresponding structure on the launcher cooperate. The launcher can drive the object to be launched to fold, flip or change shape through the corresponding structure, and then launch the object to be launched after folding, flipping or changing shape.

[0003] For example, an object to be launched has a first form and a second form. The object in the first form can be placed in the launcher, thus cooperating with the corresponding structure of the launcher. The launcher, through this corresponding structure, causes the object to be launched to switch to the second form, and then launches the object in the second form. However, the object in the second form cannot be placed in the launcher. This is because the space occupied by the object changes after switching from the first form to the second form. If the object in the second form is placed in the launcher, it will interfere with the aforementioned corresponding structure on the launcher and cannot be properly placed. Summary of the Invention

[0088] The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of this application will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation

[0089] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0090] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of this application are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0091] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "connection," "fixed," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "fixed" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can mean a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can mean a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can mean the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0092] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" in this application is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but only on the basis of being achievable by those skilled in the art. If the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, such a combination of technical solutions should be considered non-existent and not within the scope of protection claimed in this application.

[0093] The first aspect of this application discloses a transmitter 300, combined with... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the transmitter 300 includes a main body 1000, a first launching mechanism 2000, a release mechanism 4000, and a telescopic mechanism 5000. The main body 1000 is adapted to house a first object to be launched 100, which can be folded, flipped, or have its form switched. The first launching mechanism 2000 is disposed on the main body 1000 and is adapted to exert force on the first object to be launched 100 to launch it away from the main body 1000. The release mechanism 4000 is disposed on... In the main body 1000, the release mechanism 4000 is adapted to drive the first launching mechanism 2000 to generate force on the first object to be launched 100. The telescopic mechanism 5000 is provided in the main body 1000. The telescopic mechanism 5000 has an extended state and a retracted state. When the telescopic mechanism 5000 switches from the retracted state to the extended state, it is adapted to cooperate with the first object to be launched 100 to drive the first object to be launched 100 to fold, flip or change its form. When the telescopic mechanism 5000 switches from the extended state to the retracted state, it is adapted to separate from the first object to be launched 100.

[0094] By setting a telescopic mechanism 5000 on the transmitter 300, the telescopic mechanism 5000 can switch between an extended state and a retracted state. When the telescopic mechanism 5000 is switched to the extended state, it can cause the first object to be launched 100 to fold, flip or change its shape. When the telescopic mechanism 5000 is switched to the retracted state, it can separate from the first object to be launched 100. Therefore, no matter what form the first object to be launched 100 is in, as long as the telescopic mechanism 5000 is switched to the retracted state, the first object to be launched 100 will not interfere with the telescopic mechanism 5000 and affect normal placement when it is placed on the main body 1000.

[0095] Specifically, the first launchable object 100 is the component to be launched by the launcher 300. The first launchable object 100 can be folded, flipped, or its form can be switched (the following explanation uses the example of the first launchable object 100's ability to switch forms). Switching forms means changing its shape through the movement of its own structure. In this article, the first launchable object 100 is used as a transforming vehicle as an example. The first launchable object 100 can be switched to a vehicle form or a robot form. Through the solution of this embodiment, the first launchable object 100 can be placed on the main body 1000 in either vehicle form or robot form, making it more convenient to play with. It can be understood that the first launchable object 100 is composed of multiple movably connected components. By controlling the movement of one component (defined as the control component), the other components can be linked together to switch the form of the first launchable object 100.

[0096] The main body 1000 is the basis for the installation of various components. The main body 1000 forms the general shape of the launcher 300. For example, the main body 1000 can form the shape of a pistol, which is convenient for the user to hold. Of course, the main body 1000 can also be in other shapes, which are not limited in this embodiment.

[0097] To ensure that the first launchable object 100 can be placed on the main body 1000 regardless of its current form, this embodiment employs a telescopic mechanism 5000. The telescopic mechanism 5000 is a structure used to switch the form of the first launchable object 100. The telescopic mechanism 5000 has an extended state and a retracted state. When switched to the extended state, the telescopic mechanism 5000 engages with the first launchable object 100 and drives it to switch forms. When switched to the retracted state, the telescopic mechanism 5000 disengages from the first launchable object 100. It can be understood that the engagement of the telescopic mechanism 5000 with the first launchable object 100 in the extended state means that the telescopic mechanism 5000 can exert a force on the first launchable object 100, thereby driving it to switch forms.

[0098] Taking the first launchable object 100, which can switch between vehicle and robot modes, as an example: when the telescopic mechanism 5000 is in the retracted state, the first launchable object 100 in robot mode can be placed on the main body 1000. At this time, the telescopic mechanism 5000 and the first launchable object 100 in robot mode are separated. The telescopic mechanism 5000 is switched from the retracted state to the extended state. During the process of switching the telescopic mechanism 5000 to the extended state, the telescopic mechanism 5000 and the first launchable object 100 cooperate to drive the first launchable object 100 in robot mode to switch to vehicle mode. Then, the telescopic mechanism 5000 is switched from the extended state to the retracted state, so that the telescopic mechanism 5000 and the first launchable object 100 are separated. In this way, the first launchable object 100 can be switched from robot mode to vehicle mode. When the first launchable object 100 is switched to vehicle mode, the telescopic mechanism 5000 is switched to the retracted state and separated from the first launchable object 100. In other words, when the telescopic mechanism 5000 is in the retracted state, the first launchable object 100 in vehicle mode can be placed on the main body 1000 without interfering with the telescopic mechanism 5000.

[0099] After the first launchable object 100 is placed in the main body 1000, it needs to be launched by the cooperation of the first launching mechanism 2000 and the releasing mechanism 4000. The first launching mechanism 2000 is a mechanism that can generate force on the first launchable object 100. It can be understood that the so-called "generating force" means that the first launching mechanism 2000 can apply force to the first launchable object 100, and this force is sufficient to make the first launchable object 100 detach from the main body 1000 and be launched.

[0100] The first launching mechanism 2000 generates force on the first object to be launched 100 through a release mechanism 4000. The release mechanism 4000 is used to control whether the first launching mechanism 2000 generates force on the first object to be launched 100. That is, the release mechanism 4000 can trigger the first launching mechanism 2000, thereby causing the first launching mechanism 2000 to generate force on the first object to be launched 100. The release mechanism 4000 can be controlled by the user. When it is necessary to launch the first object to be launched 100, the user operates the release mechanism 4000 to drive (trigger) the first launching mechanism 2000, thereby causing the first launching mechanism 2000 to generate force on the first object to be launched 100 and launching the first object to be launched 100.

[0101] The usage of the launcher 300 is explained using the example of the first launchable object 100 being able to switch between vehicle and robot modes:

[0102] If the first launchable object 100 is in robot form, place the robot-shaped launchable object 100 onto the main body 1000 (at this time, the telescopic mechanism 5000 is in the retracted state). Switch the telescopic mechanism 5000 from the retracted state to the extended state. During the process of switching the telescopic mechanism 5000 to the extended state, the telescopic mechanism 5000 and the robot-shaped launchable object 100 cooperate and drive the robot-shaped launchable object 100 to switch to vehicle form. Then switch the telescopic mechanism 5000 back to the retracted state, so that the telescopic mechanism 5000 and the vehicle-shaped launchable object 100 are separated. Control release mechanism 4000 drives the first launch mechanism 2000, so that the first launch mechanism 2000 exerts force on the vehicle-shaped launchable object 100, thereby launching the vehicle-shaped launchable object 100.

[0103] If the first launchable 100 is in vehicle mode, place the vehicle-shaped launchable 100 onto the main body 1000 (at this time, the telescopic mechanism 5000 is in a retracted state). Since the telescopic mechanism 5000 is in a retracted state, the vehicle-shaped launchable 100 can be placed onto the main body 1000 without interference from the telescopic mechanism 5000. Since the first launchable 100 is already in vehicle mode, there is no need to control the telescopic mechanism 5000 to drive the first launchable 100 to switch modes. In this way, the release mechanism 4000 can be controlled to drive the first launch mechanism 2000, so that the first launch mechanism 2000 exerts force on the vehicle-shaped launchable 100, thereby launching the vehicle-shaped launchable 100.

[0104] In some embodiments of this application, the telescopic mechanism 5000 is adapted to switch from a retracted state to an extended state under human control, and is also adapted to switch from an extended state to a retracted state when human control is lost. To facilitate the placement of the first launchable object 100 in the form of a vehicle or a robot onto the main body 1000, the initial state of the telescopic mechanism 5000 is designed to be in a retracted state. That is, the telescopic mechanism 5000 is designed to switch from a retracted state to an extended state only under human control, and from an extended state to a retracted state when human control is lost. This allows the telescopic mechanism 5000 to be in a retracted state after each launch of the first launchable object 100, facilitating the placement of the next launchable object 100.

[0105] For example, when the telescopic mechanism 5000 is not controlled by the user, it is in a retracted state, which is the initial state of the telescopic mechanism 5000. When the user places the first launchable object 100 in robot form onto the main body 1000, the user controls the telescopic mechanism 5000 to switch to an extended state, thereby changing the first launchable object 100 in robot form to a vehicle form. After the first launchable object 100 is changed to vehicle form, the user can cancel the control of the telescopic mechanism 5000, and the telescopic mechanism 5000 will switch from an extended state to a retracted state, thus facilitating the placement of the first launchable object 100 next time.

[0106] It is understandable that when the telescopic mechanism 5000 loses human control, it switches from the extended state to the retracted state. That is, the telescopic mechanism 5000 is subjected to a force that makes it tend to switch from the extended state to the retracted state. When it is under human control, the human-applied force temporarily overcomes this tendency. However, when human control is lost, this tendency causes the telescopic mechanism 5000 to switch to the retracted state.

[0107] Combination Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the telescopic mechanism 5000 includes a handle 5100, a rotating wheel 5200, a connecting member 5300, and a first elastic member (not shown in the figure). The handle 5100 is configured to be movable and is adapted to drive the rotating wheel 5200 to rotate. The rotating wheel 5200 has a first stop portion 5210, a second stop portion 5220, and a guide slope 5230. The guide slope 5230 is disposed between the first stop portion 5210 and the second stop portion 5220. The connecting member 5300 passes through the rotating wheel 5200 and has a limiting post 5310. The limiting post 5310 is disposed between the first stop portion 5210 and the second stop portion 5220. The first elastic member is adapted to generate a force on the connecting member 5300 (indicated by F in the figure) so that the limiting post 5310 abuts against the guide slope 5230.

[0108] The handle 5100 can be gripped by the user. The user applies force to the handle 5100, which can drive the handle 5100 to move. The movement of the handle 5100 can drive the rotating wheel 5200 to rotate. Through the action of the rotating wheel 5200, the connecting member 5300 and the first elastic member, the rotating wheel 5200 can retract and extend when it rotates. The retraction of the connecting member 5300 puts the telescopic mechanism 5000 in the retracted state, and the extension of the connecting member 5300 puts the telescopic mechanism 5000 in the extended state.

[0109] Specifically, the process of the telescopic mechanism 5000 switching from the retracted state to the extended state is as follows: the control handle 5100 drives the rotating wheel 5200 to rotate in the first direction. Because the limiting post 5310 of the connecting member 5300 abuts against the guide slope 5230 of the rotating wheel 5200 under the action of the first elastic element, when the rotating wheel 5200 rotates in the first direction, the guide slope 5230 rotates accordingly. Thus, the guide slope 5230 avoids the limiting post 5310. At the same time, the connecting member 5300, under the action of the first elastic element, ensures that the limiting post 5310 always abuts against the guide slope 5230 of the rotating wheel 5200. In other words, the guide slope 5230 avoids the limiting post 5310. During the avoidance process, the connector 5300 gradually extends, allowing it to engage with the first launch object 100, for example, by connecting together. As the rotating wheel 5200 continues to rotate, the first stop 5210 of the rotating wheel 5200 abuts against the limiting post 5310, thereby causing the connector 5300 to rotate in the first direction. Since the connector 5300 has already engaged with the first launch object 100 (robot form), the rotation of the connector 5300 in the first direction can cause the first launch object 100 to change (causing the control components of the first launch object 100 to move), thereby causing the first launch object 100 to switch forms (to vehicle form).

[0110] The process of the telescopic mechanism 5000 switching from the extended state to the retracted state is as follows: The control handle 5100 drives the rotating wheel 5200 to rotate in the second direction, which is opposite to the first direction. Because the limiting post 5310 of the connecting member 5300 abuts against the guide slope 5230 of the rotating wheel 5200 under the action of the first elastic element, when the rotating wheel 5200 rotates in the second direction, the guide slope 5230 rotates accordingly. Thus, the guide slope 5230 forms a pressure against the limiting post 5310. Since the limiting post 5310 of the connecting member 5300 always abuts against the guide slope 5230 under the action of the first elastic element, that is, during the rotation of the rotating wheel 5200 in the second direction, the guide slope 5230 continuously abuts against the limiting post 5310. 10 forms a top abutment, thereby causing the connector 5300 to gradually retract (the first elastic element stores force during this process). The retraction of the connector 5300 allows it to separate from the first object to be launched 100. As the rotating wheel 5200 continues to rotate, the second stop 5220 of the rotating wheel 5200 abuts against the limiting post 5310, thereby driving the connector 5300 to rotate in the second direction to reset. Since the connector 5300 has already separated from the first object to be launched 100, the rotation of the connector 5300 in the second direction will not affect the first object to be launched 100. In other words, when the telescopic mechanism 5000 is in the retracted state, the first object to be launched 100 will not interfere with the connector 5300 regardless of how it is placed on the main body 1000.

[0111] Continue to combine Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the handle 5100 is configured to be rotatable. The handle 5100 has a first gear 5110, and the rotating wheel 5200 has a second gear 5240. The first gear 5110 and the second gear 5240 are connected in a transmission manner. The rotatable configuration of the handle 5100 makes it more convenient for the user to operate. The transmission between the handle 5100 and the rotating wheel 5200 is achieved through the transmission connection of the first gear 5110 and the second gear 5240. The transmission connection of the first gear 5110 and the second gear 5240 can be directly meshed for direct transmission connection, or it can be indirectly transmitted through more gears (such as intermediate gear 5500). The handle 5100 can reciprocate, thereby enabling the rotating wheel 5200 to rotate in a first direction and a second direction through the cooperation of the first gear 5110 and the second gear 5240. It is understandable that the first gear 5110 and the second gear 5240 can be complete circular gears or part of a circular gear (as can the third gear 2510, the fourth gear 4310 and the fifth gear 4320 mentioned below), depending on the stroke of the handle 5100 and the wheel 5200.

[0112] Combination Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the telescopic mechanism 5000 further includes a second elastic element 5420, which is adapted to exert force on the handle 5100 to put the telescopic mechanism 5000 in a retracted state. As can be seen above, the movement of the handle 5100 drives the connecting member 5300 to extend and retract, thus achieving the switching between the extended and retracted states of the telescopic mechanism 5000. In this embodiment, by providing the second elastic element 5420, which exerts force on the handle 5100, the handle 5100 is moved to a corresponding position without human control, thereby putting the telescopic mechanism 5000 in a retracted state. In other words, when the telescopic mechanism 5000 is in the extended state and the retracted state, the handle 5100 corresponds to different positions. By setting the second elastic element 5420, under the premise of non-human control of the handle 5100, the handle 5100 can move to the position when the telescopic mechanism 5000 is in the retracted state under the action of the second elastic element 5420. In this way, the telescopic mechanism 5000 can switch from the extended state to the retracted state when it loses human control.

[0113] For example, when the first launchable object 100 in robot form is placed on the main body 1000, the handle 5100 is manually moved to switch the telescopic mechanism 5000 from a retracted state to an extended state, causing the first launchable object 100 to switch to a vehicle form. While the handle 5100 is manually moved to switch the telescopic mechanism 5000 to the extended state, the second elastic element 5420 gradually accumulates force. After the first launchable object 100 switches to the vehicle form, the manual control of the handle 5100 is released, and the second elastic element 5420 releases its elastic potential energy, causing the handle 5100 to automatically reset, causing the telescopic mechanism 5000 to switch to the retracted state, facilitating the placement of the first launchable object 100 next time. The second elastic element 5420 can take many forms; taking a rotatable handle 5100 as an example, the second elastic element 5420 is a torsion spring, installed at the rotating part of the handle 5100.

[0114] Combination Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 19As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the first launching mechanism 2000 includes a positioning member 2100, a first locking member 2200, and a third elastic member 2300. When the first object to be launched 100 is placed on the main body 1000, the first object to be launched 100 is adapted to abut against the positioning member 2100 and drive the positioning member 2100 to slide. The first locking member 2200 is adapted to lock the positioning member 2100 when the first object to be launched 100 drives the positioning member 2100 to slide to a preset position. The third elastic member 2300 is adapted to generate force on the positioning member 2100 when the first object to be launched 100 drives the positioning member 2100 to slide. Through the cooperation of the positioning member 2100, the first locking member 2200, and the third elastic member 2300, force can be generated on the first object to be launched 100 to launch it.

[0115] Specifically, there are multiple ways to place the first launch object 100 onto the main body 1000. For example, the first launch object 100 can be placed onto the main body 1000 by sliding relative to it. Referring to the orientation shown in the attached diagram, the user slides the first launch object 100 onto the main body 1000 from front to back. When the first launch object 100 is placed onto the main body 1000 and slides, the first launch object 100 and the positioning member 2100 abut together. The object to be launched 100 causes the positioning member 2100 to slide backward. During the backward sliding process, the third elastic member 2300 gradually accumulates force, generating a reaction force (forward) on the positioning member 2100. When the positioning member 2100 slides to the preset position, it is locked by the first locking member 2200. Due to the locking by the first locking member 2200, even if the user releases the first object to be launched 100, the third elastic member 2300 will not release its elastic potential energy. It can be understood that the force generated by the third elastic member 2300 on the target can be direct or indirect. That is to say, the force generated by the third elastic member 2300 on the positioning member 2100 can be applied directly to the positioning member 2100 or indirectly. The same applies to the other elastic members in this article, which will not be repeated here.

[0116] To launch the first launchable object 100, the release mechanism 4000 and the first locking member 2200 need to work together. The release mechanism 4000 can move the first locking member 2200 to unlock the positioning member 2100. That is, the user controls the release mechanism 4000 to move the first locking member 2200, and the first locking member 2200 moves to unlock the positioning member 2100. When the positioning member 2100 is unlocked, the third elastic member 2300 releases elastic potential energy, causing the positioning member 2100 to slide forward and reset to support the first launchable object 100. In this way, the positioning member 2100 exerts a force on the first launchable object 100, causing the first launchable object 100 to be launched and detached from the main body 1000.

[0117] Combination Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the first launching mechanism 2000 further includes a sliding plate 2400 and a claw 2500. The sliding plate 2400 is configured to be slidably disposed, and the claw 2500 is movably disposed on the sliding plate 2400 to have an exposed state and a hidden state. When the claw 2500 is switched to the exposed state, the claw 2500 is in the launching path of the first object to be launched 100 to stop the first object to be launched 100. When the claw 2500 is switched to the hidden state, the claw 2500 leaves the launching path of the first object to be launched 100 to avoid the first object to be launched 100. When the first object to be launched 100 drives the positioning member 2100 to slide, the sliding plate 2400 is adapted to slide with the positioning member 2100 to move the claw 2500 to the exposed state. When the first locking member 2200 unlocks the positioning member 2100, the sliding plate 2400 is adapted to be reset under the action of the third elastic member 2300 to move the claw 2500 to the hidden state. The stability of the first object to be launched 100 placed on the main body 1000 can be improved by setting up the sliding plate 2400 and the claw 2500.

[0118] Specifically, when the first object to be launched 100 is placed on the main body 1000, it mainly comes into contact with the first launching mechanism 2000. The stability of the first object to be launched 100 is not good. Therefore, in this embodiment, the sliding plate 2400 and the claw 2500 are set to limit the first object to be launched 100, thereby improving the stability of the first object to be launched 100 when it is placed on the main body 1000.

[0119] For example, when the first object to be launched 100 is placed on the main body 1000, the first object to be launched 100 slides from front to back relative to the main body 1000. The first object to be launched 100 drives the positioning member 2100 to slide from front to back, so that the sliding plate 2400 slides from front to back as well. The sliding of the sliding plate 2400 causes the claw 2500 to switch to the exposed state. When the claw 2500 is in the exposed state, it is located on the launch path of the first object to be launched 100. In this way, the claw 2500 and the positioning member 2100 jointly clamp the first object to be launched 100 and restrict the first object to be launched 100, thereby improving the placement stability of the first object to be launched 100. When the first locking member 2200 unlocks the positioning member 2100, the sliding plate 2400 slides forward and resets under the action of the third elastic member 2300, causing the claw 2500 to switch from the exposed state to the hidden state. The claw 2500 leaves the launch path of the first launch object 100. At the same time, the positioning member 2100 slides forward and resets under the action of the third elastic member 2300 to support the first launch object 100. The first launch object 100 will not be blocked by the claw 2500 and can be launched.

[0120] Combination Figure 5 , Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the claw 2500 and the sliding plate 2400 are rotatably connected. The claw 2500 has a third gear 2510, and the main body 1000 has a first rack 1100. The third gear 2510 and the first rack 1100 mesh. With this arrangement, it is convenient to switch between the exposed state and the hidden state of the claw 2500.

[0121] Specifically, when the first object to be launched 100 is placed on the main body 1000, the first object to be launched 100 slides relative to the main body 1000 from front to back. The first object to be launched 100 drives the positioning member 2100 to slide from front to back, so that the sliding plate 2400 slides from front to back as well. During the process of the sliding plate 2400 sliding backward, it drives the claw 2500 to move. During the movement of the claw 2500, through the meshing of the third gear 2510 and the first rack 1100 (the first rack 1100 is stationary), the claw 2500 is caused to rotate to switch from a hidden state to a visible state. In this way, the claw 2500, together with the positioning member 2100, can limit the first object to be launched 100 and improve the placement stability of the first object to be launched 100.

[0122] When the first locking member 2200 unlocks the positioning member 2100, the sliding plate 2400 slides forward and resets under the action of the third elastic member 2300. During the forward sliding of the sliding plate 2400, it drives the claw 2500 to move. During the movement of the claw 2500, through the meshing of the third gear 2510 and the first rack 1100 (the first rack 1100 does not move), the claw 2500 is caused to rotate to switch from the exposed state to the hidden state, so that the claw 2500 leaves the launch path of the first object to be launched 100.

[0123] Combination Figure 14 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the first launching mechanism 2000 further includes a pushing member 2600, and the pushing member 2600 and the positioning member 2100 are arranged alternately. When the first object to be launched 100 drives the positioning member 2100 to slide, the positioning member 2100 moves towards the pushing member 2600 to drive the pushing member 2600 to slide, so that the pushing member 2600 drives the sliding plate 2400 to slide. When the first locking member 2200 unlocks the positioning member 2100, the pushing member 2600 is adapted to be reset under the action of the third elastic member 2300 to drive the positioning member 2100 to be reset, so that the positioning member 2100 supports the first object to be launched 100. By setting the pushing member 2600, the sliding stroke of the sliding plate 2400 is less than the placement stroke of the first object to be launched 100, which makes it easier to place the first object to be launched 100.

[0124] Specifically, taking the example of the first object to be launched 100 sliding from front to back when it is placed on the main body 1000. When the first object to be launched 100 is placed on the main body 1000, the first object to be launched 100 slides from front to back, and the first object to be launched 100 drives the positioning member 2100 to slide. Since the positioning member 2100 and the pushing member 2600 are arranged alternately, the first object to be launched 100 needs to drive the positioning member 2100 to slide a certain distance before it can drive the pushing member 2600 to slide. Then, the pushing member 2600 drives the sliding plate 2400 to slide. Before the positioning member 2100 drives the pushing member 2600 to slide, the sliding plate 2400 does not move. This makes the first object to be launched 100 have a longer sliding stroke (placement stroke) while the sliding plate 2400 has a smaller sliding stroke.

[0125] When the first locking member 2200 unlocks the positioning member 2100, the third elastic member 2300 releases elastic potential energy, and the pushing member 2600 slides forward and resets under the action of the third elastic member 2300. The pushing member 2600 drives the positioning member 2100 to slide forward and reset to support the first object to be launched 100.

[0126] It is understandable that when the first launchable object 100 is launched, both the pusher 2600 and the sliding plate 2400 slide forward and reset under the action of the third elastic member 2300. This can be achieved by the third elastic member 2300 acting on the sliding plate 2400, causing the sliding plate 2400 to slide forward and reset, which in turn causes the sliding plate 2400 to drive the pusher 2600 to slide forward and reset, and subsequently causes the pusher 2600 to drive the positioning member 2100 to slide forward and reset. Alternatively, the third elastic member 2300 can act on the pusher 2600, causing the pusher 2600 to slide forward and reset, and the pusher 2600 then drives both the sliding plate 2400 and the positioning member 2100 to slide forward and reset. Furthermore, third elastic members 2300 can be provided for the sliding plate 2400 and the positioning member 2100 respectively, so that the sliding plate 2400 and the positioning member 2100 slide forward and reset under the action of their respective third elastic members 2300.

[0127] Combination Figure 11 , Figure 15 , Figure 16 , Figure 17 and Figure 18 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the first launching mechanism 2000 further includes a limiting member 2700, and the sliding plate 2400 is provided with a clearance hole 2410. The limiting member 2700 passes through the clearance hole 2410 and is rotatably connected to the sliding plate 2400. The two ends of the limiting member 2700 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the sliding plate 2400. One end of the limiting member 2700 is defined as the first end 2710, and the other end is defined as the second end 2720. When the first object to be launched 100 detaches from the main body 1000, The first end 2710 is located on the placement path of the first object to be launched 100, and the second end 2720 is adapted to stop the positioning member 2100 to limit the sliding of the positioning member 2100. When the first object to be launched 100 is placed on the main body 1000, the first object to be launched 100 is adapted to abut against the first end 2710 to make the limiting member 2700 rotate, so that the second end 2720 releases the stop of the positioning member 2100. With this setting, unsuitable objects to be launched are avoided from being placed on the launcher 300, ensuring the user experience.

[0128] Specifically, by setting the limiting member 2700, the transmitter 300 can only be fitted with a suitable first object to be launched 100, thus preventing unsuitable objects from being placed on the main body 1000 of the transmitter 300. In other words, the first object to be launched 100 has a structure that interacts with the limiting member 2700. When the first object to be launched 100 is placed on the main body 1000, the first object to be launched 100 can cause the limiting member 2700 to rotate and avoid the positioning member 2100, so that the placement of the first object to be launched 100 can drive the positioning member 2100 to slide. If an unsuitable object to be launched is placed on the main body 1000, since the limiting member 2700 cannot rotate to avoid the positioning member 2100, the aforementioned unsuitable object to be launched cannot drive the positioning member 2100 to slide, that is, it cannot be properly placed on the main body 1000.

[0129] Combination Figure 4 , Figure 20 , Figure 21 and Figure 22 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the main body 1000 is also adapted to place the second object to be launched 200, and the launcher 300 further includes a second launching mechanism 3000. The second launching mechanism 3000 is disposed on the main body 1000 and is adapted to generate force on the second object to be launched 200 so that the second object to be launched 200 is launched away from the main body 1000. The release mechanism 4000 is adapted to drive the second launching mechanism 3000 to generate force on the second object to be launched 200, and the release mechanism 4000 can selectively drive the first launching mechanism 2000 or the second launching mechanism 3000.

[0130] The release mechanism 4000 can selectively drive either the first launching mechanism 2000 or the second launching mechanism 3000. That is, when it is necessary to launch the first launchable object 100, the release mechanism 4000 can drive the first launching mechanism 2000 to launch the first launchable object 100. When it is necessary to launch the second launchable object 200, the release mechanism 4000 can drive the second launching mechanism 3000 to launch the second launchable object 200. In this way, the user can choose to launch the first launchable object 100 and the second launchable object 200 according to the actual situation, thus improving the user experience.

[0131] The second launcher 200 can be the same as or different from the first launcher 100. The shape of the second launcher 200 can be switched or not. This article uses a flat chip as an example to illustrate the concept. The second launching mechanism 3000 is a mechanism that generates force on the second launcher 200. The so-called "generating force" means that the second launching mechanism 3000 can apply force to the second launcher 200, and this force is sufficient to make the second launcher 200 detach from the main body 1000 and be launched. The first launcher 100 and the second launcher 200 can be placed together on the main body 1000. This means that when the first launcher 100 is placed on the main body 1000, the second launcher 200 can also be placed on the main body 1000, and vice versa. By selectively driving the first launching mechanism 2000 or the second launching mechanism 3000 through the release mechanism 4000, the first launcher 100 or the second launcher 200 can be selectively launched, thereby enhancing the user experience.

[0132] Combination Figure 20 , Figure 21 and Figure 22 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the second launching mechanism 3000 includes a retaining buckle 3100 and a first push rod 3200. The retaining buckle 3100 is adapted to elastically deform and is C-shaped to have a receiving cavity 3110 and an opening 3120 communicating with the receiving cavity 3110. The second object to be launched 200 is adapted to be placed in the receiving cavity 3110. The width of the second object to be launched 200 is greater than the width of the opening 3120. The release mechanism 4000 is adapted to drive the first push rod 3200 to push against the second object to be launched, so that the second object to be launched 200 passes through the opening 3120. The second object to be launched 200 is adapted to be squeezed by the retaining buckle 3100 when passing through the opening 3120 to launch it away from the main body 1000.

[0133] Specifically, the retainer 3100 can achieve elastic deformation. For example, the retainer 3100 is an injection molded part with a certain degree of flexibility. The second object to be launched 200 is placed in the receiving cavity 3110, and the opening 3120 is open to the front. The second object to be launched 200 can be launched from the receiving cavity 3110 through the opening 3120.

[0134] Since the width of the second launch object 200 is greater than the width of the opening 3120 (which is the distance between the two ends of the retaining buckle 3100), when the second launch object 200 is placed in the receiving cavity 3110, it will not leave the receiving cavity 3110 along the direction of the opening 3120 without external force. When it is necessary to launch the second launch object 200, the release mechanism 4000 drives the first push rod 3200 to move towards the second launch object 200, so that the first push rod 3200 pushes against the second launch object 200. 00, the first push rod 3200 supports the second object to be launched 200, causing the second object to be launched 200 to move away from the receiving cavity 3110 towards the opening 3120. During the process of the second object to be launched 200 passing through the opening 3120, since the second object to be launched 200 is wider, the second object to be launched 200 causes the retaining buckle 3100 to undergo elastic deformation. When the second object to be launched 200 passes through the opening 3120, the retaining buckle 3100 returns to its original position, thereby applying force to the second object to be launched 200 and causing the second object to be launched 200 to be launched.

[0135] In some embodiments of this application, the second launcher 200 includes multiple second launchers 200 stacked in the vertical direction, with the lowest second launcher 200 placed in the receiving cavity 3110. The first push rod 3200 is adapted to support the lowest second launcher 200. When multiple second launchers 200 are included, continuous launch of multiple second launchers 200 can be achieved, enhancing the user experience.

[0136] Specifically, the base is provided with a receiving cavity 1200, which is located above and connected to the receiving cavity 3110. Multiple second objects to be launched 200 are placed in the receiving cavity 1200, and the lowest second object to be launched 200 falls into the receiving cavity 3110. The release mechanism 4000 drives the first push rod 3200 to support the second launch object 200 located at the bottom, causing the second launch object 200 located at the bottom to be launched out, and resets the first push rod 3200 (i.e. the first push rod 3200 leaves the receiving cavity 3110). Under the action of gravity, the remaining second launch objects 200 move from the receiving cavity 1200 toward the receiving cavity 3110. The bottommost of the remaining second launch objects 200 will enter the receiving cavity 3110. The release mechanism 4000 continues to control the first push rod 3200 to continue to support the second launch object 200 located at the bottom to launch the second launch object 200. This process is repeated to achieve the launch of multiple second launch objects 200. For example, when there are multiple second launch objects 200, multiple second launch objects 200 can be placed into the receiving cavity 1200 at one time and stacked in the receiving cavity 1200. The receiving cavity 1200 can accommodate multiple second launch objects 200. The second launch object 200 located at the bottom will fall into the receiving cavity 3110. After the second launch object 200 located at the bottom is launched by the first push rod 3200, the remaining second launch objects 200 continue to move down under the action of gravity. In this way, it is not necessary to put the second launch object 200 again after launching one second launch object 200 before continuing to launch.

[0137] Combination Figure 10 as well as Figures 23 to 26 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the release mechanism 4000 includes a switching part 4100, which is movable to a first position and a second position. When the switching part 4100 is movable to the first position, the release mechanism 4000 is adapted to drive the first launching mechanism 2000 to generate force on the first object to be launched 100, so that the first object to be launched 100 is launched and detached from the main body 1000. When the switching part 4100 is movable to the second position, the release mechanism 4000 is adapted to drive the second launching mechanism 3000 to generate force on the second object to be launched 200, so that the second object to be launched 200 is launched and detached from the main body 1000. By switching the switching part 4100, the release mechanism 4000 can selectively drive the first launching mechanism 2000 or the second launching mechanism 3000.

[0138] Specifically, the switching unit 4100 is movably configured to switch to a first position and a second position. The switching unit 4100 has multiple modes of operation, which are not limited in this embodiment. When the switching unit 4100 is in different positions, the release mechanism 4000 can drive the first launching mechanism 2000 or the second launching mechanism 3000.

[0139] When the switching unit 4100 is moved to the first position, the release mechanism 4000 can cooperate with the first launching mechanism 2000. By controlling the release mechanism 4000, the first launching mechanism 2000 can generate force on the first object to be launched 100, thereby launching the first object to be launched 100. When the switching unit 4100 is moved to the second position, the release mechanism 4000 can cooperate with the second launching mechanism 3000. By controlling the release mechanism 4000, the second launching mechanism 3000 can generate force on the second object to be launched 200, thereby launching the second object to be launched 200.

[0140] Understandably, the switching unit 4100 enables the release mechanism 4000 to selectively drive the first launching mechanism 2000 or the second launching mechanism 3000. When the switching unit 4100 is in the first position, the release mechanism 4000 will not drive the second launching mechanism 3000 to exert force on the second object to be launched 200. When the switching unit 4100 is in the second position, the release mechanism 4000 will not drive the first launching mechanism 2000 to exert force on the first object to be launched 100.

[0141] Combination Figures 23 to 26As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the release mechanism 4000 further includes a trigger 4200, a gear section 4300, a third rack 4400, and a transmission rod 4500. The trigger 4200 has a second rack 4210, the gear section 4300 has a fourth gear 4310 and a fifth gear 4320, the fourth gear 4310 meshes with the second rack 4210, the third rack 4400 is disposed on the first push rod 3200 of the second launching mechanism 3000, the fifth gear 4320 meshes with the third rack 4400, and the gear section 4300 is rotatably disposed on the transmission rod 4500. When the switching section 4100 is moved to the first position, the switching section 4100 restricts the movement of the third rack 4400. When the trigger 4200 is moved, it is adapted to drive the gear part 4300 to rotate and move, thereby driving the transmission rod 4500 to move, so that the transmission rod 4500 drives the first locking member 2200 of the first launching mechanism 2000 to move and unlock; when the switching part 4100 is moved to the second position, the switching part 4100 restricts the movement of the transmission rod 4500, and the trigger 4200 is adapted to drive the gear part 4300 to rotate, thereby driving the third rack 4400 to move, so that the first push rod 3200 of the second launching mechanism 3000 supports the second object to be launched 200. Through the cooperation of the above structures, the release mechanism 4000 can selectively drive the first launching mechanism 2000 or the second launching mechanism 3000.

[0142] Specifically, when the switching unit 4100 is in the first position, the switching unit 4100 restricts the movement of the third rack 4400. This restriction means that the switching unit 4100 and the third rack 4400 interact, preventing the third rack 4400 from moving. When the trigger 4200 is pulled, for example, from front to back, the trigger 4200 moves backward. Since the second rack 4210 of the trigger 4200 meshes with the fourth gear 4310 of the gear unit 4300, and the fifth gear 4310 of the gear unit 4300 also engages... 320 meshes with the third rack 4400, while the third rack 4400 is restricted from moving by the switching part 4100. Thus, the trigger 4200 can drive the gear part 4300 to move backward and rotate synchronously. Since the gear part 4300 is rotatably mounted on the transmission rod 4500, when the gear part 4300 moves backward, it can drive the transmission rod 4500 to move. The movement of the transmission rod 4500 can drive the first locking member 2200 to move, thereby unlocking the positioning member 2100 and launching the first object to be launched 100. The transmission rod 4500 can drive the first locking member 2200 to move directly or indirectly. For example, the release mechanism 4000 also includes a push rod 4600. The transmission rod 4500 drives the push rod 4600 to move (move backward), thereby driving the first locking member 2200 to unlock (the push rod 4600 pushes open the first locking member 2200, and the positioning member 2100 can be reset under the action of the third elastic member 2300).

[0143] When the switching unit 4100 is moved to the second position, the switching unit 4100 restricts the movement of the transmission rod 4500. That is, the switching unit 4100 and the transmission rod 4500 interact, thereby preventing the transmission rod 4500 from moving. When the trigger 4200 is pulled, for example, pulled from front to back, the trigger 4200 moves backward. Since the second rack 4210 of the trigger 4200 meshes with the fourth gear 4310 of the gear unit 4300, the fifth gear 4320 of the gear unit 4300 meshes with the third gear. The rack 4400 is engaged, and the third rack 4400 is disposed on the first push rod 3200. The gear part 4300 is rotatably disposed on the transmission rod 4500. At this time, the transmission rod 4500 is restricted by the switching part 4100 and cannot move. Thus, the trigger 4200 can drive the gear part 4300 to rotate. The rotation of the gear part 4300 can drive the third rack 4400 to move. The third rack 4400 drives the first push rod 3200 to support the second object to be launched 200, thereby launching the second object to be launched 200.

[0144] Combination Figure 26As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the switching part 4100 is configured to be rotatably configured, and the switching part 4100 has a locking protrusion 4110; in a first position, the locking protrusion 4110 locks the third rack 4400; in a second position, the locking protrusion 4110 locks the transmission rod 4500.

[0145] In this embodiment, the switching part 4100 is rotatably configured, allowing the user to easily operate the switching part 4100 to rotate, thus switching the switching part 4100 between the first and second positions quickly and conveniently. The limiting engagement between the switching part 4100, the third rack 4400, and the transmission rod 4500 is achieved through a locking protrusion 4110. Correspondingly, the third rack 4400 and the transmission rod 4500 are provided with recesses or other structures that engage with the locking protrusion 4110. When the switching part 4100 switches to the first position, the locking protrusion 4110 on the switching part 4100 engages with the recess on the third rack 4400, thereby restricting the movement of the third rack 4400 and thus restricting the movement of the second launching mechanism 3000. When the release mechanism 4000 is in the second position, the first locking member 2200 can only be unlocked by the transmission rod 4500. When the switching part 4100 is switched to the second position, the locking protrusion 4110 on the switching part 4100 is engaged with the recess 4510 on the transmission rod 4500, thus restricting the movement of the transmission rod 4500 and thus restricting the movement of the first launching mechanism 2000. The release mechanism 4000 can only move the first push rod 3200 to support the second launch object 200 by the third rack 4400.

[0146] Combination Figure 10 and Figure 27 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the release mechanism 4000 further includes a constraint member 4700. When the switching part 4100 is in the first position and the second position, it is constrained by the constraint member 4700. In order to prevent the switching part 4100 from accidentally switching between the first position and the second position, in this embodiment, the current position of the release mechanism 4000 is constrained by the constraint member 4700 to prevent the switching part 4100 from leaving the current position without human control.

[0147] When the switching unit 4100 moves to the first position, the constraint member 4700 applies a constraint to the switching unit 4100, making the switching unit 4100 more stable in the current position and preventing it from arbitrarily leaving the first position; when the switching unit 4100 moves to the second position, the constraint member 4700 applies a constraint to the switching unit 4100, making the switching unit 4100 more stable in the current position and preventing it from arbitrarily leaving the second position. It can be understood that when the switching unit 4100 switches between the first and second positions, the action applied manually to the switching unit 4100 can overcome the constraint applied by the constraint member 4700.

[0148] For example, the constraint member 4700 abuts against the outer periphery of the switching part 4100 to generate constraint; or the constraint of the switching part 4100 can be achieved by an elastic component, which abuts against or engages with the switching part 4100 to generate constraint on the switching part 4100. Of course, other types of structures are also possible, as long as they can generate constraint on the switching part 4100 and overcome the constraint when the switching part 4100 is manually controlled to move.

[0149] Combination Figure 26 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the release mechanism 4000 further includes a fourth elastic element 4800, which acts on the trigger 4200 to reset the trigger 4200. By providing the fourth elastic element 4800, the automatic reset of the trigger 4200 can be achieved.

[0150] For example, taking the release mechanism 4000 driving the first launching mechanism 2000 to generate force on the first target 100 as an example, the user controls the trigger 4200 to move backward, the fourth elastic element 4800 stores force, and at the same time, the trigger 4200 drives the gear part 4300 to rotate and move backward, thereby driving the transmission rod 4500 to move backward, so that the transmission rod 4500 drives the first locking member 2200 to move and unlock the positioning member 2100. In this way, the positioning member 2100 slides forward and resets to support the first target 100, launching the first target 100. After the first target 100 is launched, the user releases the trigger 4200, the trigger 4200 moves forward under the action of the fourth elastic element 4800, and at the same time, the trigger 4200 drives the gear part 4300 to rotate in the opposite direction and move forward, thereby driving the transmission rod 4500 to move forward, so that the transmission rod 4500 releases its action on the first locking member 2200.

[0151] Taking the release mechanism 4000 driving the second launching mechanism 3000 to generate force on the second target 200 as an example, the user controls the trigger 4200 to move backward, the fourth elastic element 4800 stores force, and at the same time, the trigger 4200 drives the gear part 4300 to rotate, the gear part 4300 drives the third rack 4400 to move forward, thereby driving the first push rod 3200 to push the second target 200 forward, thus launching the second target 200. After the launch of the second target 200 is completed, the user releases the trigger 4200, the trigger 4200 moves forward under the action of the fourth elastic element 4800, at the same time, the trigger 4200 drives the gear part 4300 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the third rack 4400 to move backward, causing the first push rod 3200 to move backward and leave the receiving cavity 3110 of the retaining buckle 3100.

[0152] Combination Figure 28 and Figure 29As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the transmitter 300 also includes a rear support 6100, which is detachably connected to the rear side of the main body 1000. This allows the rear support 6100 to be assembled and disassembled according to actual needs, such as by placing the rear support 6100 against the shoulder, thereby improving the ease of use of the transmitter 300.

[0153] Continue to combine Figure 28 and Figure 29 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the transmitter 300 further includes a front support 6200, which is detachably connected to the front side of the main body 1000. This allows the front support 6200 to be assembled and disassembled according to actual needs. For example, the front support 6200 can be abutted against the support surface, improving the ease of use of the transmitter 300.

[0154] Continue to combine Figure 28 and Figure 29 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the transmitter 300 also includes a light emitter 6300, which is detachably mounted on the front side of the main body 1000. For example, the light emitter 6300 can emit infrared rays. When the user uses the transmitter 300, the light emitter 6300 is turned on, and the light emitted by the light emitter 6300 can assist aiming and enhance the user experience.

[0155] Continue to combine Figure 28 and Figure 29 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the transmitter 300 further includes a storage box 6400, which is adapted to accommodate a second object to be launched 200. The storage box 6400 can be selectively installed on the main body 1000 or the rear support 6100. Multiple second objects to be launched 200 can be accommodated through the storage box 6400, thus allowing the storage box 6400 to be installed on the main body 1000 or the rear support 6100 as needed for convenient use. It is understood that when the storage box 6400 is installed on the main body 1000, the opening 6410 on the storage box 6400 is aligned with the receiving cavity 3110 of the retaining buckle 3100 of the second launching mechanism 3000. For example, the storage box 6400 is installed on the receiving cavity 1200 on the main body 1000, so that the second object to be launched 200 in the storage box 6400 can fall into the receiving cavity 3110 of the retaining buckle 3100 under the action of gravity.

[0156] The second aspect of this application discloses a launching toy 10, combined with... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 22As shown, the launching toy 10 includes a first launchable object 100 and / or a second launchable object 200, and a launcher 300 as described above. The launcher 300 can selectively launch the first launchable object 100 or the second launchable object 200. The launcher 300 includes a main body 1000, a first launching mechanism 2000, a release mechanism 4000, and a telescopic mechanism 5000. The main body 1000 is adapted to house the first launchable object 100, which can be folded, flipped, or have its form changed. The first launching mechanism 2000 is disposed on the main body 1000 and is adapted to generate force on the first launchable object 100. The first launcher 100 is launched and detached from the main body 1000. The release mechanism 4000 is located on the main body 1000. The release mechanism 4000 is adapted to drive the first launcher 2000 to generate force on the first launcher 100. The telescopic mechanism 5000 is located on the main body 1000. The telescopic mechanism 5000 has an extended state and a retracted state. When the telescopic mechanism 5000 switches from the retracted state to the extended state, it is adapted to cooperate with the first launcher 100 to drive the first launcher 100 to fold, flip or change its shape. When the telescopic mechanism 5000 switches from the extended state to the retracted state, it is adapted to separate from the first launcher 100.

[0157] By providing a telescopic mechanism 5000 on the launcher 300, the telescopic mechanism 5000 can switch between an extended state and a retracted state. When the telescopic mechanism 5000 is in the extended state, it can cause the first object to be launched 100 to fold, flip, or change its shape. When the telescopic mechanism 5000 is in the retracted state, it can separate from the first object to be launched 100. Therefore, regardless of the shape of the first object to be launched 100, as long as the telescopic mechanism 5000 is switched to the retracted state, the first object to be launched 100 will not interfere with the telescopic mechanism 5000 and affect normal placement when placed on the main body 1000. It is understood that the launching toy 10 includes the launcher 300 of the above embodiment. The launcher 300 of this embodiment adopts the technical solution of the above embodiment, and therefore has at least the beneficial effects brought by the technical solution of the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

[0158] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and does not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the concept of this application and the contents of the specification and drawings of this application, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this application.
