Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of packaging boxes, and more particularly to a press-type wine game turntable and a packaging box with the wine game turntable. Background Technology

[0002] Drinking games are a part of Chinese drinking culture, and playing drinking games is a unique way for Chinese people to enhance the enjoyment of drinking. Currently, there are many small gadgets related to drinking games on the market. For example, patent document CN2790541Y discloses an entertainment device that uses a motor to drive a pointer, selecting the drinking game based on the pointer's position. However, since the motor requires a battery, its application is limited and it cannot be used anytime, anywhere. Another patent document, CN2744383Y, discloses a drinking game turntable that can be manually rotated by a pointer. This requires a relatively large and heavy pointer that can rotate due to inertia. Miniaturizing it would be inconvenient to manually rotate the pointer due to its large size and weight, making it unsuitable for use on wine bottle packaging. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings of existing drinking game entertainment devices, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an easy-to-operate push-button drinking game turntable and a packaging box with the drinking game turntable.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is:

[0005] A push-button drinking game turntable includes a base, a panel with drinking games mounted on the base, and a pointer rotatable about the panel's axis. A pivot is located in the center of the base, and an inertia disc, a steering wheel, and a steering column are rotatably mounted on the pivot from bottom to top. The steering wheel and steering column can also slide up and down along the pivot. A helical groove is provided on the support plate at the top of the steering wheel, and the steering column passes through the steering wheel. The sidewall of the steering column has helical teeth that mesh with the helical groove. A first spring is provided between the steering wheel and the base. A second spring is provided between the steering wheel and the base. The bottom of the steering wheel is provided with a driving tooth, and the top of the inertia disk is provided with a driven tooth that can mesh with the driving tooth. In its natural state, the steering wheel and the inertia disk are disengaged under the action of the first spring. Pressing down on the steering column can make the driving tooth mesh with the driven tooth. After releasing the steering column, the steering wheel and the steering column return to their original position under the action of the first spring and the second spring. The steering wheel disengages from the inertia disk. The panel is coaxially mounted on the base, and the pointer is fixed on the inertia disk and located above the panel.

[0006] Furthermore, a bottom cover is fixedly installed on the shaft above the inertia disk. The bottom cover is located inside the bottom of the steering wheel. The inner wall of the lower end of the steering wheel is provided with limiting teeth that can contact the periphery of the bottom cover. The first spring abuts between the support plate and the bottom cover. When the first spring is in its natural state, the bottom cover contacts the limiting teeth, and the driving teeth disengage from the driven teeth.

[0007] Furthermore, a retaining ring is provided above the part of the rotating shaft used to install the inertia disk, and the bottom cover is sleeved on the rotating shaft and engaged with the retaining ring by a buckle.

[0008] Furthermore, the steering column is sleeved on the pivot shaft, and a limiting step is provided on the inner wall of the lower end of the steering column. A limiting shoulder is provided on the top of the pivot shaft. The second spring abuts between the top of the steering column and the bottom cover. When the second spring is in its natural state, the limiting step contacts the limiting shoulder.

[0009] Furthermore, the top of the rotating shaft has an opening extending along the axis of the rotating shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, the steering column is also provided with a pressure cap, which covers the steering wheel. When the second spring is in its natural state, the lower end of the pressure cap does not exceed the upper end of the steering wheel.

[0011] Furthermore, the inertial disk is rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft via bearings.

[0012] Furthermore, the panel is fixed to the base with screws, and the pointer is fixed to the inertia disk with screws.

[0013] Furthermore, the side wall of the steering column is provided with three helical teeth, and the support plate of the steering wheel is provided with three helical grooves.

[0014] A packaging box with a drinking game turntable includes a box body and a top cover, as well as a cushioning element located inside the box body, and also includes the aforementioned press-type drinking game turntable, the base of which is fixed to the top inside of the top cover.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: through the combination of the steering column, steering wheel, and inertia disk, pressing the steering column can drive the steering wheel to contact the inertia disk, and rotate it under the combination of the helical teeth and helical grooves. After releasing the steering column, the steering column and steering wheel return to their original position under the action of the spring, and the inertia disk can continue to rotate under its own inertia, thereby achieving irregular stopping of the pointer. The entire device is mechanically driven, compact in structure, easy to operate, and can be used anytime and anywhere. It will not increase the weight of the packaging box when used on it, and can also increase the fun of the drinking process. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] It should be noted that if this invention uses directional terms such as up, down, left, right, front, and back, these are for describing the relative positions of components and are not specific references to the absolute positions of related components or the relationships between them. They are only used to explain the relative positional relationships and movements of components in a specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly. If this invention uses terms related to quantity such as "many," "multiple," or "several," these specifically refer to two or more.

[0024] like Figure 1As shown, the push-button drinking game turntable of the present invention includes a base 1, a panel 2 with drinking games mounted on the base 1, and a pointer 31 rotatable about the axis of the panel 2. A rotating shaft 11 is provided in the middle of the base 1. An inertia disc 3, a steering wheel 4, and a steering column 5 are rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft 11 from bottom to top. The steering wheel 4 and the steering column 5 can also slide up and down along the rotating shaft 11. A spiral groove 42 is provided on the support plate 41 at the top of the steering wheel 4. The steering column 5 is inserted into the steering wheel 4, and spiral teeth 51 that mesh with the spiral groove 42 are provided on the side wall of the steering column 5. A first spring 43 is provided between the steering wheel 4 and the base 1, and between the steering column 5 and the base 1... A second spring 52 is provided. The bottom of the steering wheel 4 is provided with a driving tooth 44, and the top of the inertia disk 3 is provided with a driven tooth 32 that can mesh with the driving tooth 44. The first spring 43 and the second spring 52 are both compression springs. In the natural state, the steering wheel 4 is disengaged from the inertia disk 3 under the action of the first spring 43. Pressing down on the steering column 5 can make the driving tooth 44 mesh with the driven tooth 32. After releasing the steering column 5, the steering wheel 4 and the steering column 5 return to their original position upward under the action of the first spring 43 and the second spring 52. The steering wheel 4 is disengaged from the inertia disk 3. The panel 2 is coaxially mounted on the base 1, and the pointer 31 is fixed on the inertia disk 3 and located above the panel 2.

[0025] The process of using this invention is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, in its natural state, the first spring 43 lifts the steering wheel 4 upwards, disengaging the driving tooth 44 on the steering wheel 4 from the driven tooth 32 on the inertia disk 3. The second spring 52 lifts the steering column 5 upwards, causing the lower end of the steering column 5 to extend into the helical groove 42. When the steering column 5 is pressed downwards, under the interaction of the helical tooth 51 and the helical groove 42, the steering wheel 4 will first overcome the pressure of the first spring 43 and move downwards a certain distance until the lower end of the steering wheel 4 contacts the top of the inertia disk 3, where the driving tooth 44 meshes with the driven tooth 32. Further pressing down on the steering column 5 causes the steering wheel 4 and the inertia disk 3 to rotate under the interaction of the helical tooth 51 and the helical groove 42, until the steering column 5 is pressed down to its limit position where its top contacts the top of the steering wheel 4. Figure 3 As shown, the steering column 5 is then immediately released, and the steering wheel 4 and steering column 5 are reset upwards under the action of the first spring 43 and the second spring 52 respectively. The driving gear 44 disengages from the driven gear 32, and the inertia disk 3 will continue to rotate for a period of time under the action of inertia before stopping. The players play the game according to the drinking game on the panel 2 that the pointer 31 points to when it stops.

[0026] When installing the deflector wheel 4, its position can be directly limited by the first spring 43, i.e., the deflector wheel 4 is connected to the base 1 by the first spring 43. This connection method has poor structural stability, especially during reset, which can easily cause the deflector wheel 4 to jump. A preferred solution is to fix a bottom cover 45 on the shaft 11 above the inertia disk 3. The bottom cover 45 is located inside the bottom of the deflector wheel 4. The inner wall of the lower end of the deflector wheel 4 has limiting teeth 46 that can contact the periphery of the bottom cover 45. The first spring 43 abuts against the support plate 41 and the bottom cover 45. When the first spring 43 is in its natural state, the bottom cover 45 contacts the limiting teeth 46, and the driving tooth 44 disengages from the driven tooth 32. Through the abutment of the first spring 43 and the contact limiting teeth 46 between the bottom cover 45 and the bottom cover 45, the stability of the deflector wheel 4 during reset can be ensured, preventing jumping that could affect the rotation of the inertia disk 3.

[0027] The bottom cover 45 can be fixed to the rotating shaft 11 with screws. For easy disassembly and assembly, a retaining ring 12 can be provided above the part of the rotating shaft 11 where the inertia disk 3 is installed. The bottom cover 45 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 11 and is engaged with the retaining ring 12 by a buckle 47. This engaging method can also limit the installation position of the inertia disk 3.

[0028] Similarly, the position of the steering column 5 can be directly limited by the second spring 52, that is, the steering column 5 is connected and mounted on the base 1 by the second spring 52. To improve the stability of the structure, the preferred solution is that the steering column 5 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 11, a limiting step 53 is provided on the inner wall of the lower end of the steering column 5, a limiting shoulder 13 is provided on the top of the rotating shaft 11, and the second spring 52 abuts against the top of the steering column 5 and the bottom cover 45. Figure 2 As shown, when the second spring 52 is in its natural state, the limiting step 53 contacts the limiting shoulder 13. To facilitate the insertion of the rotating shaft 11 into the deflector column 5, an opening 14 extending along the axis of the rotating shaft 11 is provided at the top of the rotating shaft 11, and the top of the rotating shaft 11 can be set to a conical shape, so that the rotating shaft 11 can be smoothly inserted into the rotating shaft 11 by compressing the opening 14.

[0029] In order to further improve the overall structure of the press-type wine dice turntable, the present invention also provides the following preferred solutions.

[0030] To prevent other debris from entering the deflector wheel 4 and affecting the fit between the helical teeth 51 and the helical groove 42, a pressure cover 6 is provided on the deflector column 5. The pressure cover 6 covers the deflector wheel 4. When the second spring 52 is in its natural state, the lower end of the pressure cover 6 does not exceed the upper end of the deflector wheel 4.

[0031] To reduce rotational friction between the inertia disk 3 and the rotating shaft 11, the inertia disk 3 can be rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft 11 via a bearing 33.

[0032] To facilitate the installation of the panel 2 and the pointer 31, the panel 2 is fixed to the base 1 by screws 34, and the pointer 31 is fixed to the inertia disk 3 by screws 34.

[0033] In order to improve the smoothness of the transmission between the helical teeth 51 and the helical grooves 42, three helical teeth 51 are provided on the side wall of the steering column 5, and three helical grooves 42 are provided on the support plate 41 of the steering wheel 4.

[0034] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the present invention also provides a packaging box with a drinking game turntable, including a box body 7 and a top cover 8, and a buffer 9 located inside the box body 7, and also includes the aforementioned press-type drinking game turntable, the base 1 of which is fixed to the top inner side of the top cover 8. Figure 5 As shown, the buffer 9 has multiple slots for holding wine bottles. When using the drinking game turntable, simply remove the top cover 8 and rotate it 180°. By combining the drinking game turntable with the wine bottle packaging box, or by placing the drinking game turntable on the bottle cap, the drinking game can be played directly when opening the package and drinking, eliminating the need to carry additional drinking game tools and increasing the fun of the drinking process.
