Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The invention relates to the field of toys, in particular to a pet toy. [Background technology]

[0002] Cat toys are a type of interactive toys designed for cats to satisfy their exploration and hunting instincts. These toys usually come in a variety of shapes, colors, and materials to attract cats' attention. Common cat toys include feather sticks, laser pointers, small toys that move automatically, toys with sound effects, and turntable toys.

By simulating the movement of prey, these toys can stimulate cats' curiosity and hunting instincts, help them stay active, and reduce boredom and anxiety.

[0003] Among them, the turntable toy attracts pets by fixing one end and rotating the other end around the fixed end. However, in the existing automatically rotating turntable cat toys, the power component and the movable component are usually arranged at the fixed end and the movable end respectively. The movable component on the movable end requires kinetic energy transmitted by the power component to realize rotation, which makes the kinetic energy on the movable end unstable, and the movable end is prone to problems such as jamming, jumping and stagnation. [Summary of the invention]

[0010] Preferably, two ends of the first adapter are respectively engaged with the connecting member and the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft drives the connecting member to rotate synchronously through the first adapter.

[0011] Preferably, the connecting member is configured as a flexible member.

[0013] Preferably, a shell cover is provided on the base, the shell cover is detachably connected to the base, and the flexible covering member is clamped between the shell cover and the base.

[0014] Preferably, the rotating assembly further comprises a movable member, which is detachably connected to the housing, and the movable member is at least partially exposed outside the shielding area of ​​the flexible covering member.

[0015] Preferably, the rotating assembly further comprises an anti-skid shell, and the anti-skid shell is sleeved on the outer shell.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the pet toy of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0017] 1. The pet toy provided by the present invention comprises a base, a connecting assembly and a rotating assembly. The rotating assembly and the base are connected by the connecting assembly so that when the rotating assembly rotates, the rotating assembly rotates around the base at the same time, thereby limiting the rotating rotating assembly to a certain area, thereby enhancing the attractiveness of the pet toy to the pet, and making it more convenient for the user to use the pet toy and play with the pet;

[0018] Furthermore, a transmission module is provided in the rotating component, and the transmission module drives the rotating component to rotate. By providing the transmission module in the rotating component to reduce the transmission distance, the transmission efficiency of the pet toy is higher. At the same time, the rotating component is directly driven to rotate by the transmission module in the rotating component, which can make the rotation of the rotating component more stable and smooth, and avoid problems such as jamming and stagnation of the rotating component.

[0019] 2. The transmission module of the pet toy provided by the present invention includes a gear set, a bracket and a driving member. The transmission module is arranged in the accommodating cavity of the shell, so that the structure of the rotating component is more compact and the volume is smaller. At the same time, the transmission module transmits the kinetic energy of the driving member to the shell through the gear set and the bracket. The gear transmission makes the rotation of the shell more stable and transmits a larger torque to the shell, so that when the friction force of the rotating component is too large or encounters an obstacle during the rotation process, the rotating component can be kept rotating.

[0020] 3. The rotating assembly provided by the present invention also includes a control module and a power module, and the control module and the power module are placed in the accommodating cavity. The control module and the power module can provide power for the driving member and control the output kinetic energy of the driving member, so that the rotating assembly can rotate in different forms, so that the pet toy has more different functional modes, thereby enhancing the diversity and fun of the pet toy.

[0021] 4. The connecting assembly provided by the present invention includes a bearing and a connecting piece, and the two ends of the connecting piece are respectively connected to the bearing and the rotating assembly. The base and the rotating assembly are connected by arranging the bearing sleeve on the base, so that when the rotating assembly rotates around the base, the rotation of the rotating assembly is smoother, and the noise that may be generated by the rotation is reduced.

[0022] 5. The two ends of the first adapter of the connecting component provided by the present invention are respectively connected to the connecting component and the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft drives the connecting component to rotate synchronously through the first adapter, so that when the rotating component rotates, the connecting component and the rotating component rotate synchronously, thereby avoiding knotting and entanglement of the connecting component during the rotation of the rotating component.

[0023] 6. The connecting piece provided by the present invention is configured as a flexible piece. When the pet toy is placed on the ground for use, friction will be generated between the rotating component and the ground while the rotating component rotates. The friction will cause the rotating component to roll on the ground. The connecting piece is connected to the rotating component to limit the rolling area of ​​the rotating component, so that the rotating component rotates around the base at the other end of the connecting piece. When the connecting piece is configured as a flexible piece, the flexible piece can be bent so that the rotating component can move toward the base during the rolling process, thereby making the movement trajectory of the rotating component more varied, further enhancing the attractiveness of the pet toy to the pet.

[0024] 7. The pet toy provided by the present invention also includes a flexible covering member, which covers at least a portion of the rotating component. The rotating component moves under the cover of the flexible covering member, which can hide the rotating component and enhance the attractiveness of the pet toy to the pet.

[0025] 8. The base provided by the present invention is provided with a shell cover, which is detachably connected to the base, and the flexible covering member is clamped between the shell cover and the base. By detachably connecting the flexible covering member and the base, users can load and unload or replace different flexible covering members according to their needs, thereby improving the applicability of pet toys.

[0026] 9. The rotating assembly provided by the present invention also includes a movable part, on which feathers are provided. The movable part rotates synchronously with the rotating assembly when the rotating assembly rotates. At the same time, the feathers on the movable part can be exposed relative to the flexible covering part. The rotating and sometimes hidden feathers can further enhance the attractiveness of the pet toy to the pet.

[0027] 10. The rotating assembly provided by the present invention also includes an anti-slip shell, which is mounted on the outer shell. The anti-slip shell increases the friction between the rotating assembly and the ground, so that the rotating assembly can stably rotate around the base under the action of friction during self-rotation, thereby improving the functional stability of the pet toy.

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0048] In existing automatically rotating turntable cat toys, the power component and the movable component are usually arranged at a fixed end and a movable end respectively. The movable component at the movable end requires kinetic energy transmitted by the power component to realize rotation, which makes the kinetic energy at the movable end unstable and the movable end is prone to problems such as jamming, jumping and stagnation.

[0049] To solve the problem of unstable operation of cat toys, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first embodiment of the present invention provides a pet toy 1, which includes a base 11, a connecting component 21 and a rotating component 31, wherein one end of the connecting component 21 is rotatably connected to the base 11, and the other end of the connecting component 21 is connected to the rotating component 31;

[0050] The rotating assembly 31 includes a housing 311 and a transmission module 312 . The transmission module 312 is connected to the housing 311 and drives the housing 311 to rotate.

[0051] The pet toy 1 provided in this embodiment is usually placed on the ground for use. When the rotating component 31 rotates, it contacts the ground and generates a friction force that interacts with each other. The friction force causes the rotating component 31 to roll on the ground. The rotating component 31 and the base 11 are connected by the connecting component 21. When the rotating component 31 rotates, the rotating component 31 rotates around the base 11 at the same time under the action of the friction force, thereby limiting the moving rotating component 31 within a certain area, thereby enhancing the attractiveness of the pet toy 1 to the pet, and making it more convenient for the user to use the pet toy 1 and play with the pet.

[0052] Furthermore, a transmission module 312 is also provided in the rotating component 31, and the transmission module 312 drives the rotating component 31 to rotate. By providing the transmission module 312 in the rotating component 31 to reduce the transmission distance, the transmission efficiency of the pet toy 1 is higher. At the same time, the rotating component 31 is directly driven to rotate by the transmission module 312 in the rotating component 31, which can make the rotation of the rotating component 31 more stable and smooth, and avoid problems such as jamming and stagnation of the rotating component 31.

[0053] For details, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The transmission module 312 includes a gear set 3122, a bracket 3121 and a driving member 3123. The housing 311 is provided with a receiving chamber 3111. The transmission module 312 is placed in the receiving chamber 3111, and the bracket 3121 is fixedly connected to the housing 311.

[0054] The bracket 3121 is provided with a rotating shaft 31211 , the gear set 3122 and the driving member 3123 are arranged on the bracket 3121 , and the driving member 3123 is transmission-connected to the gear set 3122 , and the gear set 3122 is transmission-connected to the rotating shaft 31211 .

[0055] The transmission module 312 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 3111 of the shell 311, so that the structure of the rotating component 31 is more compact and the volume is smaller. At the same time, the transmission module 312 transmits the kinetic energy of the driving member 3123 to the shell 311 through the gear group 3122 and the bracket 3121. The gear transmission makes the rotation of the shell 311 more stable and transmits a larger torque to the shell 311. Therefore, when the friction force of the rotating component 31 is too large or encounters an obstacle during the rotation process, the rotating component 31 can keep rotating.

[0056] Specifically, see Figure 3 The rotating assembly 31 further includes a control module 3124 and a power module 3125 . The control module 3124 , the power module 3125 and the driving member 3123 are electrically connected to each other, and the control module 3124 and the power module 3125 are placed in the accommodating cavity 3111 .

[0057] The control module 3124 and the power module 3125 can provide power to the driving member 3123 and control the kinetic energy output by the driving member 3123, so that the rotating component 31 can rotate in different forms, allowing the pet toy 1 to have more different functional modes, thereby enhancing the diversity and fun of the pet toy 1.

[0058] Specifically, the shape of the bracket 3121 matches the cross-sectional shape of the accommodating cavity 3111, and the bracket 3121 is snap-fitted and fixed in the middle area of ​​the accommodating cavity 3111; the bracket 3121 is an extension portion on one side away from the connecting component 21, and the control module 3124 is fixed on the extension portion, and the power module 3125 and the driving member 3123 are fixed on the bracket 3121 and are located between the bracket 3121 and the control module 3124; the gear set 3122 is fixed on the bracket 3121 and is located on a side of the bracket 3121 close to the connecting component 21, and the output shaft of the driving member 3123 passes through the bracket 3121 and meshes with the gear set 3122, and the gear set 3122 meshes with the rotating shaft 31211 on the bracket 3121; through this arrangement, the components in the outer shell 311 are arranged more compactly and reasonably, and the volume of the outer shell 311 is reduced.

[0059] Optionally, the control module 3124 and the power module 3125 are arranged in the base 11 and electrically connected to each other, and the control module 3124 and the power module 3125 are electrically connected to the transmission module 312 in the rotating component 31 through a wire passing through the connecting component 21, thereby reducing the components in the rotating component 31 to reduce the weight of the rotating component 31, avoiding excessive kinetic energy generated by the moving rotating component 31, and causing harm to the user or pet due to collision, while increasing the weight of the base 11, so that the base 11 can be stabilized in the placement area, avoiding the base 11 from being driven by the moving rotating component 31 to be offset or tipped over.

[0060] Specifically, the rotating component 31 also includes a sound and light module, which is arranged in the accommodating cavity 3111, and the sound and light module is electrically connected to the control module 3124 and the power supply module 3125 respectively. A transparent area is set on the outer shell 311 corresponding to the sound and light module. Through the sound and light module, the rotating component 31 can also emit sound and light while moving, thereby further enhancing the attractiveness of the pet toy 1 to the pet.

[0061] For details, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 The connecting component 21 includes a bearing 212, a connecting member 211, a first adapter 213 and a second adapter 214. The bearing 212 is sleeved on the base 11, and the inner ring and the outer ring of the bearing 212 are respectively connected to the base 11 and the second connecting member 214; the two ends of the connecting member 211 are respectively connected to the first adapter 213 and the second adapter 214, and the end of the first adapter 213 away from the connecting member 211 is connected to the rotating component 31.

[0062] The base 11 and the rotating assembly 31 are connected by the bearing 212 , so that when the rotating assembly 31 rotates around the base 11 , the rotating assembly 31 rotates more smoothly and the noise that may be generated by the rotation is reduced.

[0063] Specifically, the main body of the second adapter 214 is a circular ring structure, and a connecting portion is extended on the outer circumference of the circular ring. The circular ring is sleeved on the outer ring of the bearing 212. The second adapter 214 is connected to the connecting member 211 through the connecting portion. The connecting portion makes the connection area between the connecting member 211 and the bearing 212 away from the base 11, thereby avoiding interference between the connecting member 211 and the base 11 during the rotation process relative to the base 11, making its movement process smoother.

[0064] Specifically, see Figure 1, the connecting member 211 is configured as a flexible member. As the rotating assembly 31 rotates, friction is generated between the rotating assembly 31 and the ground, and the friction causes the rotating assembly 31 to roll on the ground. The connecting member 211 is connected to the rotating assembly 31 to limit the rolling area of ​​the rotating assembly 31, so that the rotating assembly 31 rotates around the base 11 at the other end of the connecting member 211. When the connecting member 211 is configured as a flexible member, the flexible member can be bent, so that the rotating assembly 31 can move toward the base 11 during the rolling process, thereby making the movement trajectory of the rotating assembly 31 more varied, further enhancing the attractiveness of the pet toy 1 to the pet.

[0065] Optionally, the connecting member 211 is configured as a rigid member. By configuring the connecting member 211 as a rigid member, the rotating assembly 31 can rotate around the base 11 along a stable trajectory. Different motion trajectories can be set by using rigid members of different shapes and structures.

[0066] Specifically, when the connecting member 211 is configured as a flexible member, the connecting assembly 21 further includes a first adapter 213, the two ends of which are respectively engaged with the connecting member 211 and the rotating shaft 31211, and the rotating shaft 31211 drives the connecting member 211 to rotate synchronously through the first adapter 213. The first adapter 213 enables the connecting member 211 and the rotating assembly 31 to rotate synchronously when the rotating assembly 31 rotates, thereby preventing the connecting member 211 from being knotted or entangled during the rotation of the rotating assembly 31.

[0067] For further information, see Figure 2 A connecting hole 3112 is provided on the outer shell 311, and the connecting hole 3112 connects the outside and the accommodating chamber 3111. The first adapter 213 passes through the connecting hole 3112 and enters the accommodating chamber 3111 to be engaged with the connecting shaft. There is a gap between the first adapter 213 and the outer shell 311, thereby avoiding friction between the outer shell 311 and the first adapter 213 when rotating.

[0068] Optionally, the first adapter 213 and the shell 311 are rotatably connected, and the shell 311 can rotate relative to the first adapter 213, so that when the shell 311 of the rotating component 31 rotates, the shell 311 rotates relative to the connecting component 21, and the connecting component 21 will not rotate synchronously with it due to the connection shell 311, but is only driven by the rotating component 31 to rotate around the base 11.

[0069] Specifically, see Figure 1 The rotating assembly 31 further includes a movable member 314, which is detachably connected to the housing 311. The movable member 314 rotates synchronously with the rotating assembly 31 when the rotating assembly 31 rotates, further enhancing the attraction of the pet toy 1 to the pet.

[0070] Optionally, the movable part 314 may be provided with feathers, cloth strips, ropes or other items of interest to the pet, thereby increasing the attractiveness of the movable part 314 to the pet.

[0071] Specifically, see Figure 2 The rotating assembly 31 further includes an anti-skid shell 313, which is sleeved on the outer shell 311. The anti-skid shell 313 increases the friction between the rotating assembly 31 and the ground, so that the rotating assembly 31 can stably rotate around the base 11 under the action of friction during self-rotation, thereby improving the functional stability of the pet toy 1.

[0072] The pet toy 1 provided in this embodiment connects the base 11 and the rotating component 31 through the connecting component 21, so that the rotating component 31 rotates around the base 11 while rotating on itself, and the rotating component 31 is restricted to a certain range of movement, which is convenient for users to use; at the same time, a flexible member is provided on the connecting component 21, and the rotating component 31 can move toward the direction close to the base 11 during the rotation process through the flexible member, so that the movement trajectory of the rotating component 31 is more varied, thereby enhancing the pet attraction of the pet toy 1 to the pet; further, a transmission module 312 is provided in the rotating component 31, and the rotating component 31 is driven to rotate by the transmission module 312, thereby reducing the transmission distance to improve the transmission efficiency, and at the same time making the rotation of the rotating component 31 more stable.

[0073] To solve the above technical problems, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The second embodiment of the present invention also provides another pet toy 2. The difference between the pet toy 2 in the second embodiment and the pet toy 1 in the first embodiment is that the pet toy 2 also includes a flexible covering member 41, which is detachably connected to the base 11 and covers at least part of the rotating component 31.

[0074] The rotating component 31 moves under the cover of the flexible cover member 41 , which can hide the rotating component 31 and enhance the attractiveness of the pet toy 2 to the pet.

[0075] Specifically, when the movable member 314 on the rotating assembly 31 moves to the edge of the flexible covering member 41 , the movable member 314 will be at least partially located outside the shielding area of ​​the flexible covering member 41 , so that the movable member 314 can further enhance the attractiveness of the pet toy 2 to the pet.

[0076] Specifically, the base 11 is provided with a shell cover 111, which is detachably connected to the base 11, and the flexible cover 41 is clamped between the shell cover 111 and the base 11. By detachably connecting the flexible cover 41 and the base 11, the user can assemble and disassemble or replace different flexible cover 41 according to needs, thereby improving the applicability of the pet toy 2.

[0077] For further information, see Figure 7 The base 11 includes a main body 112, on which a connecting end 1122 and a placing end 1121 are provided opposite to each other, and a bearing 212 is sleeved on the connecting end 1122. The shell cover 111 is connected to the main body 112 through the connecting end 1122, and the bearing 212 is located between the shell cover 111 and the main body 112. The cross-sectional diameters of the shell cover 111 and the main body 112 are larger than the connecting end 1122. The bearing 212 connected to the connecting end 1122 is axially limited by the shell cover 111 and the main body 112 to prevent the bearing 212 from falling out of the base 11 during rotation; at the same time, the placing end 1121 is set as a plane, which is convenient for placing the base 11 on the ground through the placing end 1121.

[0078] Optionally, a transparent area or observation hole is provided on the flexible covering member 41. When the rotating component 31 rotates under the flexible covering member 41, the rotating component 31 can be seen through the transparent area or observation hole, so that the rotating component 31 appears and disappears under the flexible covering member 41, which increases the fun of the pet toy 2 and enhances its attractiveness to pets.

[0079] Compared with the prior art, the pet toy of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0080] 1. The pet toy provided by the present invention comprises a base, a connecting assembly and a rotating assembly. The rotating assembly and the base are connected by the connecting assembly so that when the rotating assembly rotates, the rotating assembly rotates around the base at the same time, thereby limiting the rotating rotating assembly to a certain area, thereby enhancing the attractiveness of the pet toy to the pet, and making it more convenient for the user to use the pet toy and play with the pet;

[0081] Furthermore, a transmission module is provided in the rotating component, and the transmission module drives the rotating component to rotate. By providing the transmission module in the rotating component to reduce the transmission distance, the transmission efficiency of the pet toy is higher. At the same time, the rotating component is directly driven to rotate by the transmission module in the rotating component, which can make the rotation of the rotating component more stable and smooth, and avoid problems such as jamming and stagnation of the rotating component.

[0082] 2. The transmission module of the pet toy provided by the present invention includes a gear set, a bracket and a driving member. The transmission module is arranged in the accommodating cavity of the shell, so that the structure of the rotating component is more compact and the volume is smaller. At the same time, the transmission module transmits the kinetic energy of the driving member to the shell through the gear set and the bracket. The gear transmission makes the rotation of the shell more stable and transmits a larger torque to the shell, so that when the friction force of the rotating component is too large or encounters an obstacle during the rotation process, the rotating component can be kept rotating.

[0083] 3. The rotating assembly provided by the present invention also includes a control module and a power module, and the control module and the power module are placed in the accommodating cavity. The control module and the power module can provide power for the driving member and control the output kinetic energy of the driving member, so that the rotating assembly can rotate in different forms, so that the pet toy has more different functional modes, thereby enhancing the diversity and fun of the pet toy.

[0084] 4. The connecting assembly provided by the present invention includes a bearing and a connecting piece, and the two ends of the connecting piece are respectively connected to the bearing and the rotating assembly. The base and the rotating assembly are connected by arranging the bearing sleeve on the base, so that when the rotating assembly rotates around the base, the rotation of the rotating assembly is smoother, and the noise that may be generated by the rotation is reduced.

[0085] 5. The two ends of the first adapter of the connecting component provided by the present invention are respectively connected to the connecting component and the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft drives the connecting component to rotate synchronously through the first adapter, so that when the rotating component rotates, the connecting component and the rotating component rotate synchronously, thereby avoiding knotting and entanglement of the connecting component during the rotation of the rotating component.

[0086] 6. The connecting piece provided by the present invention is configured as a flexible piece. When the pet toy is placed on the ground for use, friction will be generated between the rotating component and the ground while the rotating component rotates. The friction will cause the rotating component to roll on the ground. The connecting piece is connected to the rotating component to limit the rolling area of ​​the rotating component, so that the rotating component rotates around the base at the other end of the connecting piece. When the connecting piece is configured as a flexible piece, the flexible piece can be bent so that the rotating component can move toward the base during the rolling process, thereby making the movement trajectory of the rotating component more varied, further enhancing the attractiveness of the pet toy to the pet.

[0087] 7. The pet toy provided by the present invention also includes a flexible covering member, which covers at least a portion of the rotating component. The rotating component moves under the cover of the flexible covering member, which can hide the rotating component and enhance the attractiveness of the pet toy to the pet.

[0088] 8. The base provided by the present invention is provided with a shell cover, which is detachably connected to the base, and the flexible covering member is clamped between the shell cover and the base. By detachably connecting the flexible covering member and the base, users can load and unload or replace different flexible covering members according to their needs, thereby improving the applicability of pet toys.

[0089] 9. The rotating assembly provided by the present invention also includes a movable part, on which feathers are provided. The movable part rotates synchronously with the rotating assembly when the rotating assembly rotates. At the same time, the feathers on the movable part can be exposed relative to the flexible covering part. The rotating and sometimes hidden feathers can further enhance the attractiveness of the pet toy to the pet.

[0090] 10. The rotating assembly provided by the present invention also includes an anti-slip shell, which is mounted on the outer shell. The anti-slip shell increases the friction between the rotating assembly and the ground, so that the rotating assembly can stably rotate around the base under the action of friction during self-rotation, thereby improving the functional stability of the pet toy.

Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principle and implementation mode of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method of the present invention and its core idea.
