Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of spinning top toys, in particular to a spinning top toy. Background Art

[0002] The gyroscope is one of the earliest entertainment tools among the Chinese people and is a toy that is very familiar to young people. Its shape is round in the upper part and pointed at the bottom. The way to play is to make it generate initial velocity by force, and then make it rotate upright, that is, it can maintain a stable self-rotation state after being subjected to force. The gyroscope rotates by relying on the initial velocity and rotational kinetic energy given, usually with the help of an accelerator to give the gyroscope an initial velocity. Existing accelerators usually use a rack acceleration method, specifically through the rack passing through the drive gear, and then pulling the rack to drive the drive gear to rotate, and then drive the gyroscope to accelerate the rotation through the drive gear, and then eject the gyroscope after the rotation energy is stored. However, this type of accelerator that drives the gyroscope to rotate by the rack, due to the travel limit of the rack, the initial velocity obtained by the gyroscope is small, and the rotation time of the ejected gyroscope is short, resulting in its low interest and entertainment.
