[0035] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. Now, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, a preferred embodiment of the present utility model is described in detail.
[0036] The utility model embodiment provides a toy water ball 1000, such as Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, the toy water ball 1000 includes a shell 100, a cover 200 and a connecting column 300. The shell 100 is made of a flexible material. The shell 100 defines a water storage chamber 110 and an opening 120 connecting the water storage chamber 110 with the external space of the shell 100. The cover 200 is made of a flexible material. The cover 200 is installed at the opening 120, and the outer contour of the cover 200 is larger than the outer contour of the opening 120 so that the cover 200 can seal the water storage chamber 110. One end of the connecting column 300 is installed on the cavity wall of the water storage chamber 110 away from the opening 120, and the other end is connected to the cover 200.
[0037] Specifically, since the shell 100 and the cover 200 are both made of flexible materials, the user can apply force to the toy water ball 1000 to make the toy water ball 1000 produce elastic deformation. At this time, a gap for water circulation will be generated between the shell 100 and the cover 200. Because the gap is connected to the opening 120, the water storage chamber 110 is broken, so water can be filled into the water storage chamber 110 at this time. After filling with water, you only need to stop applying force to the toy water ball 1000, and the toy water ball 1000 will restore its deformation. Since the outer contour of the cover 200 is larger than the contour of the opening 120, the cover 200 can re-seal the water storage chamber 110 to prevent water in the water storage chamber 110 from leaking. When the user throws the toy water ball 1000 and it hits the player, the toy water ball 1000 will be impacted by external force and produce elastic deformation. At this time, a gap for water circulation will be generated between the shell 100 and the cover 200. Because the gap is connected to the opening 120, the water storage chamber 110 is unsealed. Therefore, the water in the water storage chamber 110 will overflow from the water storage chamber 110 under the action of external force, causing the player who is hit by the toy water ball 1000 to be wetted by water.
[0038] Of course, it is understandable that throwing the toy water ball at the player is only a reference way to play the water ball game. In addition to throwing it at the player, the toy water ball 1000 can also be simply thrown at the bottom, wall or other places, and this embodiment is not limited here.
[0039] By implementing this embodiment, a connecting column 300 is provided in the toy water ball 1000, one end of the connecting column 300 is installed on the cavity wall of the water storage cavity 110 away from the opening 120, and the other end is connected to the cover 200, so that the connecting column 300 can connect the shell 100 and the cover 200 to prevent the two from being separated. The setting of the connecting column 300 makes the cover 200 and the shell 100 in this embodiment have good connection stability, so before the toy water ball 1000 hits the player, the water in the water storage cavity 110 will not overflow, and the user experience is better.
[0040] refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 In a specific embodiment, the cover body 200 is sleeved on a side of the shell 100 facing away from the water storage chamber 110 .
[0041] Specifically, although the housing 100 is disposed on the side of the opening 120 close to the water storage chamber 110 and can seal the water storage chamber 110, this technical solution is not easy to assemble, and the cover 200 will occupy part of the space of the water storage chamber 110, resulting in a reduced capacity of the toy water ball 1000. Therefore, in this embodiment, the cover 200 is sleeved on the side of the housing 100 facing away from the water storage chamber 110, which not only makes the cover 200 easy to assemble, but also does not occupy the space of the water storage chamber 110, and the capacity of the toy water ball 1000 is larger.
[0042] refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 In a specific embodiment, the housing 100 includes a hemispherical portion 130 and an annular portion 140. The hemispherical portion 130 defines a groove 131. One end of the connecting column 300 is connected to the bottom of the groove 131. The annular portion 140 is arranged around the notch of the groove 131 to define a water storage chamber 110 together with the hemispherical portion 130. The annular portion 140 is in a direction away from the bottom of the groove 131 ( Figure 3 The opening 120 has a narrowing trend in the X direction, and the opening 120 is formed on the side of the ring portion 140 away from the bottom of the groove 131.
[0043] Specifically, the cover 200 in this embodiment is sleeved on the outer side of the ring portion 140, and the area of the outer side covered by the cover 200 is greater than half of the area of the outer side. In this way, the contact area between the cover 200 and the outer side is relatively large, which can improve the sealing effect of the toy water ball 1000, and further prevent the water in the water storage chamber 110 from overflowing before the toy water ball 1000 hits the player, so that the user experience is excellent.
[0044] refer to Figure 4 In one embodiment, an annular reinforcing rib 150 is provided on the wall of the water storage chamber 110 and is arranged around the connecting column 300 . The annular reinforcing rib 150 is located between the opening 120 and one end of the connecting column 300 .
[0045] Specifically, since the annular reinforcement rib 150 is located between the opening 120 and one end of the connecting column 300, when the user holds the toy water ball 1000, the user will hold the position where the annular reinforcement rib 150 is located. The annular reinforcement rib 150 will increase the hardness of the position where it is located, thereby increasing the user's grip.
[0046] In order to further enhance the user's grip when holding the toy water ball 1000, the annular reinforcing ribs 150 may be provided with a plurality of annular reinforcing ribs 150 extending in the direction of the connecting column 300 ( Figure 3 Specifically, the annular reinforcing ribs 150 may be provided with two, three or more annular reinforcing ribs 150 according to the requirements, which is not limited in this embodiment.
[0047] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 In a specific embodiment, in the extension direction of the connecting column 300, the annular reinforcing rib 150 is disposed adjacent to the cover body 200, so that the user may have a better grip when holding the cover.
[0048] refer to Figure 3-Figure 9 In one embodiment, a first socket 310 and a second socket 320 are respectively provided at both ends of the connecting column 300, the cover body 200 is provided with a first plug block 210 used in conjunction with the first socket 310, and a second plug block 160 used in conjunction with the second socket 320 is provided on the cavity wall of the water storage cavity 110.
[0049] This embodiment shows a specific structure for connecting the connecting column 300 with the shell 100 and the cover body 200, wherein the first plug block 210 is used in conjunction with the first socket 310 to connect the connecting column 300 with the cover body 200, and the second plug block 160 is used in conjunction with the second socket 320 to connect the connecting column 300 with the shell 100. The first plug block 210 and the second plug block 160 both provide a clear installation position for the connecting column 300, so by implementing this embodiment, the connecting column 300 will not be installed crookedly.
[0050] In another embodiment, the connecting column 300 may be connected to the cover 200 and the housing 100 by glue.
[0051] In another embodiment, the connecting column 300 and the cover body 200 and the shell 100 can also be connected to the cover body 200 and the shell 100 through a snap-fit structure. For example, one of the male buckle and the female buckle is provided on the circumferential surface of both ends of the connecting column 300, and the other of the male buckle and the female buckle is provided on the cavity wall of the water storage cavity 110 away from the opening 120 and on the shell 100.
[0052] refer to Figure 5-Figure 9 In one embodiment, the outer contours of the first plug block 210 and the second plug block 160 are different from the circle, the shape of the first socket 310 is adapted to the outer contour of the first plug block 210, and the shape of the second socket 320 is adapted to the outer contour of the second plug block 160.
[0053] Specifically, since the outer contour of the first plug block 210 is different from a circle and the shape of the first socket 310 is adapted to the outer contour of the first plug block 210, after the first plug block 210 is inserted into the first socket 310, the connecting column 300 will abut against the first plug block 210 in its circumferential direction, thereby limiting the rotation of the connecting column 300 relative to the cover body 200, thereby improving the connection stability between the connecting column 300 and the cover body 200. Similarly, since the outer contour of the second plug block 160 is different from a circle and the shape of the second socket 320 is adapted to the outer contour of the second plug block 160, after the second plug block 160 is inserted into the second socket 320, the connecting column 300 will abut against the second plug block 160 in its circumferential direction, thereby limiting the rotation of the connecting column 300 relative to the housing 100, thereby improving the connection stability between the connecting column 300 and the housing 100.
[0054] refer to Figure 7-Figure 9 In one embodiment, a first receiving groove 220 is provided on the cover body 200 and is arranged around the first plug block 210, a second receiving groove 170 is provided on the wall of the water storage chamber 110 and is arranged around the second plug block 160, and both ends of the connecting column 300 are respectively accommodated in the first receiving groove 220 and the second receiving groove 170.
[0055] Specifically, the existence of the first receiving groove 220 increases the length of the first plug block 210, so that the connection area between the first plug block 210 and the connecting column 300 is larger, and the connection stability between the cover body 200 and the connecting column 300 is increased. Similarly, the existence of the second receiving groove 170 increases the length of the second plug block 160, so that the connection area between the second plug block 160 and the connecting column 300 is larger, and the connection stability between the cover body 200 and the connecting column 300 is increased.
[0056] In one embodiment, the toy water ball 1000 further includes an adhesive layer (not shown in the figure), which is disposed between the first plug block 210 and the first socket 310 , and between the second plug block 160 and the second socket 320 .
[0057] Specifically, the adhesive layer can increase the connection stability between the connecting column 300 and the cover body 200 and the shell 100, thereby extending the service life of the toy water ball 1000 and preventing the toy water ball 1000 from failing due to the disconnection between the connecting column 300 and the cover body 200 and / or the shell 100.
[0058] refer to Figure 2 In one embodiment, a decorative element 230 is provided on the outer surface of the toy water ball 1000 .
[0059] Specifically, the decorative element 230 can improve the aesthetics of the toy water ball 1000 and enhance the visual experience of the user.
[0060] refer to Figure 2In a specific embodiment, the decorative element 230 is made of a flexible material.
[0061] Specifically, the decorative element 230 is made of a flexible material to prevent the toy water ball 1000 from causing damage to the player when it hits the player. The decorative element 230 can be disposed on the housing 100 or on the cover 200, which is not limited in this embodiment.
[0062] refer to Figure 2 In a specific embodiment, the decorative element 230 is integrally formed with the housing 100 or the cover 200 .
[0063] Specifically, the integral molding of the decorative part 230 and the shell 100 or the cover 200 can effectively reduce the number of parts of the toy water ball 1000, and the decorative part 230 does not need to be assembled separately with the shell 100 or the cover 200, and the mold opening cost and assembly cost are reduced. Therefore, the implementation of this embodiment can reduce the production cost of the toy water ball 1000.
