A lifting reciprocating device is provided inside the main body, and a lifting block with synchronous lifting movement is fixed at the lifting end of the lifting reciprocating device. The bottom of the lifting block is fixed on the lifting block, and a rolling ball track is provided on the outside of the main body.

[0038] In order to better achieve the purpose of the present invention, the present invention also provides a method for using a multifunctional educational toy, comprising the following steps:
[0039] Step 1: By controlling the motor (221) to operate, the motor (221) drives the gear 1 (222) to rotate, and the gear 1 (222) engages with the arc-shaped rack (223) to force the movement, so that the slider 1 (212) fixed to the motor (221) slides on the arc-shaped guide rail (211);
[0040] Step 2: The movement of the slider 1 (212) drives the installation frame 1 (215) to move. The installation frame 1 (215) slides with the installation frame 2 (216) through the slide bar (217). The installation frame 2 (216) slides on the straight guide rail (213) through the slider 2 (214). The heights of the two sets of rolling ball release assemblies (24) on the installation frame 1 (215) and the installation frame 2 (216) are adjusted synchronously.
[0041] Step 3: When the second mounting frame (216) slides along the slide bar (217), the guide slide bar (237) of the second mounting frame (216) moves horizontally, and the guide slide bar (237) drives the first connecting rod (236) to slide within the slide groove (234) through the limiting slider (235);
[0042] Step 4: When the distance between the two sets of ball release assemblies (24) and the upper end surface of the bottom plate (11) is determined, the push-pull electromagnet (231) is started, and the push-pull electromagnet (231) drives the adjustment rod (232) to rise, and the adjustment rod (232) drives the balance block (233), the limit slider (235), and the second connecting rod (238) to rise synchronously, and the limit slider (235) drives the first connecting rod (236) to rise, and makes the first connecting rod (236) slide with the second mounting frame (216) through the guide slide bar (237);
[0043] Step 5: The connecting rod 1 (236) and the connecting rod 2 (238) are lifted to respectively drive the two T-shaped push plates (241) fixed thereto to lift, and the symmetrical inclined surfaces of the T-shaped push plates (241) slide in contact with the symmetrical trapezoidal blocks fixed on the two ball release plates (242), and the two trapezoidal blocks drive the two ball release plates (242) to move away from each other, and the ball release plates (242) slide in a limited position with the mounting frame 2 (216) or the slide bar (217) through the polygonal slide bar (243) and compress the spring (244);
[0044] Step 6: When the distance between the arc grooves symmetrically arranged on the two ball release plates (242) is greater than the diameter of the ball (5) placed thereon, the ball (5) slides down from the arc grooves of the ball release plates (242), and then the push-pull electromagnet (231) resets to drive the T-shaped push plate (241) to reset, and the spring (244) drives the ball release plates (242) and the polygonal slide bar (243) to reset;
[0045] Step 7: The two rolling balls (5) are released synchronously and roll along the arc-shaped slide rail (12) and the inclined slide rail (13) to the left side of the two J-shaped slide rails (142);
[0046] Step eight, recovering the kinetic energy of the rolling ball (5) through the kinetic energy recovery end of the kinetic energy recovery transmission assembly (4) located above the left side of the J-shaped slide rail (142);
[0047] Step nine, the rolling ball (5) collides with the baffle (45), and the baffle (45) and the mounting rod (43) cooperate to abut against each other and limit, and the baffle (45) drives the outer ring of the one-way bearing (44) to rotate at a fixed angle under the action of the impact force, and the outer ring of the one-way bearing (44) drives its inner ring to engage and force the movement, and the inner ring of the one-way bearing (44) drives the rotating shaft (42) to rotate at a fixed angle, and the rotating shaft (42) drives the gear 2 (314) to rotate at a fixed angle through the synchronous wheel assembly (47). Gear 2 (314) drives the annular tooth groove (313) to engage and force movement, and the turntable (312) rotates a fixed angle under the action of the annular tooth groove (313), and lifts the ball (5) in the collecting groove (315) thereon by a fixed angle. At the same time, the outer ring of the one-way bearing (44) pulls the tension spring (46) to extend, and when the tension spring (46) is reset, the tension spring (46) drives the outer ring of the one-way bearing (44) to reset. At this time, the outer ring of the one-way bearing (44) and its inner ring do not interact with each other;
[0048] Step 10: The ball (5) in the collecting trough (315) at the same height as the through hole (317) rolls down from the collecting trough (315) under the action of the inner wall slope of the collecting trough (315) and passes through the through hole (317), and then rolls into the feeding guide rail (323) along the feeding guide rail (324). At the same time, the turntable (312) rotates to drive the reciprocating threaded rod (321) to rotate, and the reciprocating threaded rod (321) drives the thread of the threaded sleeve (322) to force reciprocating motion, and the threaded sleeve (322) drives the feeding guide rail (323) to rotate. ) and the second feeding guide rail (324) reciprocate and limit slide, the feeding port (325) provided on the first feeding guide rail (323) reciprocates at the upper entrance of the arc-shaped slide rail (12) and the inclined slide rail (13), the rolling ball (5) rolls into the arc-shaped slide rail (12) or the inclined slide rail (13) from the feeding port (325), and the feeding baffle (326) blocks the feeding port (325) during the movement of the first feeding guide rail (323), thereby preventing the rolling ball (5) from sliding off from the middle of the arc-shaped slide rail (12) and the inclined slide rail (13);
[0049] Step 11: The ball (5) rolls down along the upper entrance of the arc-shaped slide rail (12) and the inclined slide rail (13) and falls into the arc-shaped grooves symmetrically opened on the two ball release plates (242). The ball (5) is blocked by the limit slider (235) to prevent it from rolling down;
[0050] Step 12: Return to step 1.
[0051] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The height of the sliding assembly, the synchronous drive assembly, and the ball release assembly are adjusted by the height adjustment assembly, so that the balls on the two sets of ball release assemblies are located at the same height on the curved slide rail and the inclined slide rail and the height is adjusted synchronously. The synchronous drive assembly drives the balls on the two sets of ball release assemblies to be released simultaneously, thereby achieving the simultaneous release of the two balls at the same height on the curved slide rail and the inclined slide rail;
[0052] 2. When the ball slides down the curved and inclined rails, based on the "principle of the fastest curve," the time it takes for the ball to slide from the curved rail to the end point is less than the time it takes on the inclined rail. Furthermore, based on the "law of conservation of energy," the kinetic energy of the ball at the lower ends of the curved and inclined rails is the same. The kinetic energy recovery transmission component detects the ball's falling time and kinetic energy, verifying the "principle of the fastest curve" and the "law of conservation of energy," thereby achieving a teaching purpose.
[0053] 3. At the same time, under the impact of the rolling ball, the kinetic energy recovery transmission assembly converts the kinetic energy of the rolling ball into power to drive the rolling ball collection and loading assembly to operate. The rolling ball that moves along the guide assembly to the loading position of the rolling ball collection and loading assembly is transported to the upper end position of the arc slide rail and the inclined slide rail through the rolling ball collection and loading assembly, thereby realizing the rolling cycle of the rolling ball.

[0070] Example 1: In some embodiments, please refer to the accompanying drawings of the specification. Figures 1-9 A multifunctional educational toy includes a ball rolling toy body 1 and a plurality of balls 5. The ball rolling toy body 1 includes a base plate 11, an arcuate slide rail 12, an inclined slide rail 13 and a guide assembly 14.

The guide assembly 14 is mounted on the upper end surface of the base plate 11, and the guide assembly 14 is provided with two inlet ends and one outlet end. The lower ends of the arcuate slide rail 12 and the inclined slide rail 13 are respectively connected to the two inlet ends of the guide assembly 14 for use;
[0071] The arc-shaped slide rail 12 and the inclined slide rail 13 are equipped with a ball height synchronization adjustment and release assembly 2 for lifting and releasing the ball 5;
[0072] The ball height synchronous adjustment and release assembly 2 includes a sliding assembly 21, a height adjustment assembly 22, a synchronous drive assembly 23 and a ball release assembly 24. The sliding assembly 21 is mounted on the arc-shaped slide rail 12 and the inclined slide rail 13. The height adjustment assembly 22 is mounted on the arc-shaped slide rail 12. The height adjustment assembly 22 is connected to the sliding assembly 21. The synchronous drive assembly 23 is mounted on the height adjustment assembly 22. There are two groups of ball release assemblies 24. The two groups of ball release assemblies 24 are at the same distance from the upper end surface of the base plate 11. The ball release assembly 24 is connected to the height adjustment assembly 22 and the synchronous drive assembly 23.
[0073] The upper end surface of the base plate 11 is installed with a rolling ball collection and loading assembly 3 and a kinetic energy recovery transmission assembly 4. The rolling ball collection and loading assembly 3 is connected to the kinetic energy recovery transmission assembly 4 for transmission.

The synchronous drive assembly 23 drives the balls 5 on the two sets of ball release assemblies 24 to be released simultaneously, thereby achieving the simultaneous release of the two balls 5 at the same height on the curved slide rail 12 and the inclined slide rail 13;
[0076] Second, when the ball 5 slides down the curved rail 12 and the inclined rail 13, based on the "principle of the fastest curve," the time it takes for the ball 5 to slide from the curved rail 12 to the end point is less than the time it takes on the inclined rail 13.

The kinetic energy recovery transmission assembly 4 detects the falling time and kinetic energy of the ball 5, verifying the "principle of the fastest curve" and the "law of conservation of energy," thereby achieving a teaching purpose.
[0077] 3. At the same time, under the impact of the ball 5, the kinetic energy recovery transmission component 4 converts the kinetic energy of the ball 5 into power to drive the ball collecting and loading component 3 to operate, and the ball 5 that moves along the guide component 14 to the loading position of the ball collecting and loading component 3 is transported to the upper end position of the arc slide rail 12 and the inclined slide rail 13 through the ball collecting and loading component 3, thereby realizing the rolling circulation of the ball 5.

[0106] When the present invention is used, the height of the balls 5 on the two sets of ball release assemblies 24 is synchronously raised by the synchronous movement of the mounting frame 1 215 and the mounting frame 216;
[0107] The push-pull electromagnet 231 is used as a single power to drive the balls 5 on the two sets of ball release assemblies 24 to be released synchronously;
[0108] Thus, the two rolling balls 5 are released synchronously at any height position on the arc-shaped slide rail 12 and the inclined slide rail 13;
[0109] When the present invention is used, the time for the two balls 5 to roll down from the arc-shaped slide rail 12 and the inclined slide rail 13 is different. The time for the balls 5 to roll down from the arc-shaped slide rail 12 is shorter than that from the inclined slide rail 13. Therefore, the two baffles 45 collide with the balls 5 one after another.

[0111] Embodiment 3: In some embodiments, as Figures 1-11 As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the present invention also discloses a method for using a multifunctional educational toy, comprising the following steps:
[0112] Step 1: By controlling the motor 221 to operate, the motor 221 drives the gear 1 222 to rotate, and the gear 1 222 engages with the arc-shaped rack 223 to force movement, so that the slider 1 212 fixed to the motor 221 slides on the arc-shaped guide rail 211;
[0113] Step 2: The movement of slider 1 212 drives the movement of mounting frame 1 215 . Mounting frame 1 215 slides with mounting frame 2 216 via slide bar 217 . Mounting frame 216 slides on straight guide rail 213 via slider 214 . The heights of the two sets of rolling ball release assemblies 24 on mounting frame 1 215 and mounting frame 2 216 are adjusted synchronously.
[0114] Step 3: As the second mounting frame 216 slides along the slide bar 217 , the guide slide bar 237 of the second mounting frame 216 moves horizontally. The guide slide bar 237 drives the first connecting rod 236 to slide within the slide groove 234 through the limit slider 235 .
[0115] Step 4: When the distance between the two sets of ball release assemblies 24 and the upper end surface of the base plate 11 is determined, the push-pull electromagnet 231 is activated, and the push-pull electromagnet 231 drives the adjustment rod 232 to rise. The adjustment rod 232 drives the balancing block 233, the limit slider 235, and the second connecting rod 238 to rise synchronously. The limit slider 235 drives the first connecting rod 236 to rise, and the first connecting rod 236 slides with the second mounting frame 216 through the guide slide 237;
[0116] Step 5: Connecting rod 1 236 and connecting rod 238 are lifted to respectively drive the two T-shaped push plates 241 fixed thereto to lift. The symmetrical inclined surfaces of the T-shaped push plates 241 slide in contact with the symmetrical trapezoidal blocks fixed to the two ball release plates 242. The two trapezoidal blocks drive the two ball release plates 242 to move away from each other. The ball release plates 242 slide in a limited position with the second mounting frame 216 or the slide bar 217 via the polygonal slide bar 243 and compress the spring 244.
[0117] Step 6: When the distance between the symmetrically arranged arcuate grooves on the two ball release plates 242 is larger than the diameter of the ball 5 placed thereon, the ball 5 slides down from the arcuate grooves of the ball release plates 242. Subsequently, the push-pull electromagnet 231 resets, driving the T-shaped push plate 241 to reset. The spring 244 then drives the ball release plates 242 and the polygonal slide bar 243 to reset.
[0118] Step 7: The two rolling balls 5 are released simultaneously and roll along the arc-shaped slide rail 12 and the inclined slide rail 13 to the left side of the two J-shaped slide rails 142 respectively;
[0119] Step eight, recovering the kinetic energy of the ball 5 through the kinetic energy recovery end of the kinetic energy recovery transmission assembly 4 located above the left side of the J-shaped slide rail 142;
[0120] In step nine, the ball 5 collides with the baffle 45, and the baffle 45 cooperates with the mounting rod 43 to interfere with the limit position. Under the action of the impact force, the baffle 45 drives the outer ring of the one-way bearing 44 to rotate a fixed angle, and the outer ring of the one-way bearing 44 drives its inner ring to engage and force the movement. The inner ring of the one-way bearing 44 drives the rotating shaft 42 to rotate a fixed angle, and the rotating shaft 42 drives the gear 2 314 to rotate a fixed angle through the synchronous wheel assembly 47. The gear 2 314 drives the annular tooth groove 313 to engage and force the movement. The turntable 312 rotates a fixed angle under the action of the annular tooth groove 313, and lifts the ball 5 in the collecting groove 315 thereon by a fixed angle. The baffle 45 Each collision causes the outer ring of the one-way bearing 44 to rotate by a fixed angle, and the inner ring of the one-way bearing 44 to rotate by a fixed angle. The rotating shaft 42 drives the annular tooth groove 313 to rotate by a fixed angle through the synchronous wheel assembly 47. In the present invention, the fixed angle is the angle between two adjacent collection grooves 315 on the rotating disk 312. Therefore, each collision of the rolling ball 5 with the baffle 45 causes the small ball in the collection groove 315 to rise one grid. At the same time, the outer ring of the one-way bearing 44 pulls the tension spring 46 to extend, and when the tension spring 46 resets, the tension spring 46 drives the outer ring of the one-way bearing 44 to reset. At this time, the outer ring of the one-way bearing 44 and its inner ring do not interact with each other.
[0121] Step 10: The ball 5 in the collecting groove 315 at the same height as the through hole 1 317 rolls down from the collecting groove 315 under the action of the inner wall slope of the collecting groove 315 and passes through the through hole 1 317, and then rolls into the feeding guide rail 1 323 along the feeding guide rail 2 324. At the same time, the turntable 312 rotates to drive the reciprocating threaded rod 321 to rotate, and the reciprocating threaded rod 321 drives the thread of the threaded sleeve 322 to force the reciprocating motion, and the threaded sleeve 322 drives the feeding guide rail 1 323 to rotate. 23 and the second loading guide rail 324 reciprocate and limit slide, and the loading port 325 opened on the first loading guide rail 323 reciprocates at the upper entrance of the arc-shaped slide rail 12 and the inclined slide rail 13, and the ball 5 rolls into the arc-shaped slide rail 12 or the inclined slide rail 13 from the loading port 325. During the movement of the first loading guide rail 323, the loading port 325 is blocked by the loading baffle 326, thereby preventing the ball 5 from sliding between the arc-shaped slide rail 12 and the inclined slide rail 13;
[0122] In step 11, the ball 5 rolls down along the upper entrances of the arc-shaped slide rail 12 and the inclined slide rail 13 and falls into the arc-shaped grooves symmetrically formed on the two ball release plates 242. The limiting slider 235 blocks the ball 5 from rolling down.
[0123] Step 12: Return to step 1.
