[0029] Example 2

[0030] This embodiment is developed on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment. Figure 7 As shown, specifically, the transmission mechanism 4 includes a first gear 401, a second gear 402, a third gear 403, a fourth gear 404, a first connecting shaft 405, a second connecting shaft 406, a third connecting shaft 407 and a fourth connecting shaft 408. The first gear 401 is meshed with the second gear 402 and the third gear 403, and the fourth gear 404 is meshed with the second gear 402. One end of the first connecting shaft 405 passes through the mounting plate 10 to connect to the output end of the driving mechanism 3, and the other end is connected to the first transmission shaft 5. The first gear 401 is arranged on the first connecting shaft 405, and the second gear 402, the third gear 403 and the fourth gear 404 are respectively arranged on the second connecting shaft 406, the third connecting shaft 407 and the fourth connecting shaft 408, and the second connecting shaft 406, the third connecting shaft 407 and the fourth connecting shaft 408 are all arranged on the mounting plate 10. The third connecting shaft 407 and the fourth connecting shaft 408 are connected to one end of the first fin connecting rod 601 of the fin mechanism 6.

[0031] It should be noted that after starting the driving mechanism 3, the driving mechanism 3 rotates to drive the first connecting shaft 405 to rotate, thereby driving the first gear 401 set on the first connecting shaft 405 to rotate, and the first gear 401 engages with the fourth gear 404, thereby driving the left fin of the mechanical whale to swing, and the first gear 401 engages with the second gear 402, and the second gear 402 engages with the third gear 403, thereby driving the right fin to swing.

[0032] Furthermore, if Figure 3-7As shown, the fin mechanism 6 also includes a second fin link 602, a third fin link 603 and a fourth fin link 604, the other end of the first fin link 601 is connected to one end of the second fin link 602, the other end of the second fin link 602 is connected to one end of the third fin link 603, and connecting plates 605 are also horizontally arranged on both sides of the mounting plate 10, and the other end of the third fin link 603 is rotatably arranged on the connecting plate 605 and connected to one end of the fourth fin link 604. It should be noted that the fin mechanism 6 swings by rotating the third connecting shaft 407 and the fourth connecting shaft 408, respectively driving the first fin link 601 to rotate around the connecting shaft, and the endpoints connected to the third fin link 603 and the fourth fin link 604 are set on the connecting plate 605 and do not move, so that the first fin link 601 and the second fin link 602 and the third fin link 603 form a crank-connecting rod mechanism, and the second fin link 602 and the third fin link 603 make a swinging motion, thereby driving the fourth fin link 604 to make a swinging motion, thereby realizing the swinging process of the fin.

It should be noted that in order to increase the observation effect, the skeleton structure can use transparent acrylic as the outer packaging material. At the same time, in order to increase the mechanical effect, at least two pairs of decorative sprockets 12 can be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the skeleton structure 2. The number of pairs of decorative sprockets 12 can be increased according to actual needs. The rotation of the decorative sprocket 12 is achieved by rotating the first transmission shaft 5 through the commutator 11 to drive the sprocket 14 to rotate.

Chains are arranged between the decorative sprockets 12, thereby driving all the decorative sprockets 12 on one side to rotate. A second transmission shaft 13 is arranged between one pair of the decorative sprockets 12.
