[0039] The present application provides an educational toy 100 and a busy board 200, which are described in detail below. It should be noted that the description order of the following embodiments does not limit the preferred order of the embodiments of the present application. In the following embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own emphasis. For parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, please refer to the relevant description of other embodiments.
[0040] The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below. Figure 1 As shown, according to the educational toy 100 in the embodiment of the utility model, it includes a shell 110 and a disc 120, a lever 130, a speaker 140 and a control component 150 arranged on the shell 110. The lever 130 is rotatable and has a first position and a second position. The lever 130 is opposite to the disc 120 in a predetermined direction in the first position, and the lever 130 is misaligned with the disc 120 in the predetermined direction in the second position. The control component 150 transmits signals with the speaker 140, and controls the speaker 140 to play background music when the lever 130 is in the first position.
[0041] Specifically, see Figure 1The shell 110 is the external structure and supporting part of the entire educational toy 100. The shell 110 is provided with a disc 120 and a lever 130. The shell 110 is provided with a speaker 140 and a control component 150. The disc 120 can rotate and emit a disc 120 sound effect. The lever 130 is higher than the height of the disc 120 in the height direction of the educational toy 100. The lever 130 can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. According to the position of the lever 130, it may include a first position and a second position. The first position is on and the second position is off. The control component 150 may include a circuit or chip for processing audio data and performing corresponding operations. The speaker 140 transmits signals with the control component 150, and the speaker 140 can convert the signal transmitted by the control component 150 into sound. When the lever 130 is in the first position, the lever 130 and the disc 120 are opposite in a predetermined direction, which may be the height direction of the educational toy 100. At this time, the lever 130 may be located above the disc 120, and the lever 130 triggers the control component 150. After receiving the signal, the control component 150 controls the speaker 140 to play the background music. When the lever 130 is in the second position, the lever 130 and the disc 120 are misaligned in the predetermined direction, the lever 130 does not trigger the control component 150 to transmit the signal to the speaker 140, and the speaker 140 stops playing the background music. The background music may be one or more complete pieces of music played in a loop, and the multiple pieces may be two, three, four, five, etc. There may be a short pause between each piece of music, such as a pause of 0.5 seconds, 1 second, 1.5 seconds, 2 seconds, etc., and it is also possible to play the music in a loop without setting a pause. In addition, a startup sound effect can be set. When the lever 130 is rotated to the first position, the speaker plays the startup sound effect, and then the background music starts to play in a loop after the startup sound effect is played. The startup sound effect can be set to a short music sound effect or a startup reminder voice. A short pause can also be set between the startup sound effect and the background music.
[0042] According to the educational toy 100 in the embodiment of the utility model, by setting the lever 130 and the disc 120, which are different from common piano keys or buttons, the fun and unique appearance of the educational toy 100 can be increased to arouse the interest of children; by rotating the lever 130 and the disc 120, a novel music interaction method can be provided to exercise children's thinking logic and fine hand movements.
[0043] In some embodiments, the disc 120 is rotatably connected to the housing 110, and the control assembly 150 includes a first switch 151, which is opposite to the disc 120 and controls the speaker 140 to play sound effects when the disc 120 rotates to a first predetermined position. Figure 1 and Figure 2, the disc 120 is connected to the surface of the housing 110 and can rotate, and a first predetermined position is set according to the rotation position of the disc 120. A first switch 151 is provided opposite to the disc 120, and the first switch 151 controls the sound effect playing of the educational toy 100 by the relative position with the disc 120. The first switch 151 can preferably be a leaf switch, which can be opened and closed when a slight pressure is applied from the outside, and is accurate and sensitive. Of course, the first switch 151 can also be other types of switches. When the disc 120 rotates to the first predetermined position, the first switch 151 can be triggered to transmit a signal to make the speaker 140 emit a disc sound effect. By making the disc 120 rotatable, children can manually operate the rotating disc 120, which is more interesting and challenging than simple buttons or piano keys. When the disc 120 rotates to the first predetermined position, the first switch 151 is triggered to play the disc sound effect. This intuitive and unique interactivity can better stimulate children's interest, and can also exercise their hand-eye coordination and operation skills. By setting the first predetermined position, it means that the disc 120 needs to be rotated to a specific position to trigger the disc sound effect. Children need to find a way to rotate the disc 120 to the first predetermined position through observation and experimentation, which can develop their thinking logic and problem-solving ability.
[0044] In combination with the above-mentioned embodiment, when the lever 130 is in the first position, the educational toy 100 is in the on state, the speaker 140 plays the background music, and the disc 120 is rotated to the first predetermined position. At this time, the speaker 140 plays the disc sound effect in a superimposed manner, that is, at this time, the speaker 140 plays the background music and the disc sound effect at the same time. The disc sound effect can be a shorter sound effect, such as 1 second, 1.5 seconds, 2 seconds, etc. The disc sound effect can also be set to one or more sound effects. For example, three disc sound effects can be set according to different scales, and the playing time of each sound effect can be the same or different. When the lever 130 is in the second position, the educational toy 100 is in the off state, and the speaker 140 stops playing the background music. Even if the disc 120 is rotated to the first predetermined position, the speaker 140 will not emit music and sound effects.
[0045] In some embodiments, the surface of the disc 120 is provided with textures. Figure 1 The surface texture can be achieved by etching the surface of the rubber part of the disc 120. The disc 120 with the texture on the surface can provide additional tactile feedback, and can also increase the beauty and attractiveness of the disc 120, making it more ornamental and interesting, and stimulating children's interest and desire to explore.
[0046] In some embodiments, the educational toy 100 further includes a first turntable 160, which is connected to the disc 120 and rotates with the disc 120, and the first switch 151 is arranged opposite to the first turntable 160, and the first turntable 160 has a triggering portion 161 for triggering the first switch 151. For details, please refer to Figure 2 The first turntable 160 can be stacked below the disc 120. The first turntable 160 is connected to the disc 120 and can rotate with the disc 120. The first switch 151 is arranged opposite to the first turntable 160. The first turntable 160 is provided with a triggering portion 161, which is used to interact with the first switch 151 to trigger the first switch 151. When the first turntable 160 rotates to the first predetermined position, the triggering portion 161 on the first turntable 160 contacts or abuts against the first switch 151, triggering the first switch 151 to transmit a signal so that the speaker 140 emits a sound effect.
[0047] In some embodiments, the triggering part 161 is disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the first rotating disk 160, and the probe 152 of the first switch 151 is radially opposite to the first rotating disk 160. Figure 2 The first switch 151 has a probe 152, which is radially opposite to the first rotating disk 160. The probe 152 of the first switch 151 can be directed toward the center of the first rotating disk 160 and extend along the radial direction. The relative arrangement along the radial direction can provide a relatively stable and reliable trigger mechanism. The triggering portion 161 can be set on the outer circumference of the first rotating disk 160. The triggering portion 161 on the outer circumference can more easily contact the probe 152, thereby triggering the first switch 151 when the first rotating disk 160 rotates.
[0048] In some embodiments, the first turntable 160 includes an annular rib 153, the triggering part 161 is arranged on the inner circumference or outer circumference of the annular rib 153, and the probe 152 of the first switch 151 is opposite to the first turntable 160 along the radial direction of the first turntable 160. Specifically, the annular rib 153 can form an annular structure inside or outside the first turntable 160, which helps to enhance the structural strength of the first turntable 160 to ensure its stability during rotation. The probe 152 of the first switch 151 is opposite to the first turntable 160 along the radial direction of the first turntable 160, and the probe 152 of the first switch 151 can extend along the radial direction toward the center of the first turntable 160. The relative arrangement along the radial direction can provide a relatively stable and reliable triggering mechanism. The triggering part 161 can be arranged on the inner circumference or outer circumference of the annular rib 153, so that it is easier to contact the probe 152 during the rotation of the first turntable 160, thereby triggering the first switch 151.
[0049] Of course, the probe 152 of the first switch 151 may also be arranged to be opposite to the first turntable 160 along the axial direction of the first turntable 160. In some embodiments, considering the possible axial deviation or incomplete balance when the turntable rotates, it may cause the first turntable 160 to fail to successfully trigger the probe 152 of the first switch 151 when it rotates to the first predetermined position. Setting the probe 152 at a position opposite to the axial direction can reduce the error caused by rotation and mechanical factors, and ensure that the first switch 151 can be accurately triggered when the turntable rotates.
[0050] In some embodiments, the triggering portion 161 includes one or a plurality of triggering portions 161 arranged at intervals along the circumference of the first rotating disk 160. Figure 3 The trigger part 161 may be one or multiple, such as two, three, five, seven, eight, etc., distributed along the circumferential interval of the first turntable 160. The circumferential distances between the multiple trigger parts 161 along the first turntable 160 may be equal or unequal. By arranging multiple trigger parts 161 at circumferential intervals on the first turntable 160, it is possible to trigger the turntable at different positions, thereby realizing multiple functions or operation modes, enhancing the flexibility of the system, and improving the reliability of the system. If one trigger part 161 fails or is damaged, the other trigger parts 161 can still work normally, thereby maintaining the operational stability of the system and reducing the risks caused by single point failures. When the disc 120 rotates one circle, the first turntable 160 also rotates one circle, and the trigger part 161 on the first turntable 160 triggers the speaker to play the disc sound effect once or multiple times. It can be understood that when one trigger part 161 is set on the first turntable 160, the disc 120 rotates one circle to emit a disc sound effect once, and when multiple trigger parts 161 are set on the first turntable 160, the disc 120 rotates one circle to trigger the first switch 151 multiple times, and the disc sound effect can be emitted multiple times.
[0051] In some embodiments, the triggering portion 161 includes a protrusion 162 disposed on the peripheral wall of the first rotating disk 160, and the gap between the probe 152 of the first switch 151 and the peripheral wall is smaller than the height of the protrusion 162 relative to the peripheral wall. Figure 3 A protrusion 162 is provided on the peripheral wall of the first turntable 160, and the protrusion 162 may be one or more. The gap between the probe 152 of the first switch 151 and the peripheral wall is smaller than the height of the protrusion 162 relative to the peripheral wall. During the rotation of the first turntable 160, the protrusion 162 on the first turntable 160 will contact or abut the probe 152 of the first switch 151, thereby accurately triggering the first switch 151 to make the speaker 140 emit a sound effect, realizing real-time feedback and interaction, and improving the user experience.
[0052] In some other embodiments, the triggering part 161 may also include a depression provided on the peripheral wall of the first rotating disk 160, and the probe 152 of the first switch 151 abuts against the peripheral wall and extends into the depression when it is opposite to the triggering part 161. Specifically, a depression is provided on the peripheral wall of the first rotating disk 160, and the depression may be one or more, and the probe 152 of the first switch 151 abuts against the peripheral wall of the first rotating disk 160. During the rotation of the first rotating disk 160, when the probe 152 of the first switch 151 is opposite to the depression of the first rotating disk 160, the probe 152 extends into the depression and accurately triggers the first switch 151 to make the speaker 140 emit a sound effect. Whenever the probe 152 is opposite to the depression, the disc sound effect will be triggered, providing real-time operation feedback for the user, enhancing the user experience, and making the operation more vivid and interesting. In addition, since the probe 152 is triggered only when it is opposite to the depression, this design effectively prevents the occurrence of false triggering. The sound effect is triggered only when the probe 152 is inserted into the recess, thereby avoiding false triggering that may be caused by other factors.
[0053] In some embodiments, abutment members 154 may also be provided at the radial position of the first rotating disk 160 opposite to the first switch 151. The abutment members 154 and the first switch 151 are respectively provided on both sides of the radial position of the first rotating disk 160. In combination with the above-mentioned embodiments, when the triggering portion 161 of the first rotating disk 160 is opposite to the probe 152 of the first switch 151, the first rotating disk 160 may produce a certain offset under the abutment of the probe 152. The abutment members 154 may provide a force in the opposite direction to offset the offset, ensuring that the first rotating disk 160 remains stable when it is opposite to the first switch 151, so that the triggering portion 161 can accurately trigger the probe 152 of the first switch 151. The provision of the abutment members 154 can enhance the stability of the system, ensure that the first rotating disk 160 has sufficient support during the rotation process, avoid possible swaying or looseness, and thus improve the stability of the system.
[0054] In some embodiments, the control assembly 150 further includes a second switch 155, and the educational toy 100 further includes a second turntable 170, which is connected to the lever 130 and rotates with the lever 130, and the second turntable 170 is opposite to the second switch 155, and triggers the second switch 155 when the lever 130 is in the first position. Figure 2The lever 130 on the surface of the shell 110 is connected to the second turntable 170. The second turntable 170 is arranged in the shell 110 of the educational toy 100. The second turntable 170 can rotate with the lever 130. When the lever 130 rotates in a clockwise direction or a counterclockwise direction, the second turntable 170 also rotates in a clockwise direction or a counterclockwise direction. The second switch 155 is also arranged in the shell 110 of the educational toy 100, and the second switch 155 is opposite to the second turntable 170. The second turntable 170 can trigger the second switch 155 during the rotation process, and the lever 130 is in the first position at this time. The second switch 155 is preferably a touch switch, so that when the lever 130 rotates to the first position, the second switch 155 can be triggered more sensitively. Of course, the second switch 155 can also be other types of switches.
[0055] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the outer circumference of the second turntable 170 is provided with a first protrusion 171 and a second protrusion 172, the first protrusion 171 and the second protrusion 172 are arranged along the circumference of the second turntable 170, and there is a certain distance between the first protrusion 171 and the second protrusion 172, the second switch 155 is radially opposite to the second turntable 170, the second switch 155 is located between the first protrusion 171 and the second protrusion 172 of the second turntable 170, and the second switch 155 is provided with a button 156, and the button 156 of the second switch 155 faces the first protrusion 171. In combination with the above-mentioned embodiment, when the lever 130 rotates clockwise to the first position, the second turntable 170 rotates clockwise to trigger the second switch 155, at which time the first protrusion 171 on the second turntable 170 abuts against the button 156 of the second switch 155, the second switch 155 is triggered, and the speaker 140 emits background music. When the music needs to be turned off, the lever 130 is pushed counterclockwise to return to its original position. At this time, the second turntable 170 rotates counterclockwise with the lever 130, and the first protrusion 171 moves away from the button 156 of the second switch 155. At the same time, as the lever 130 continues to rotate, the second protrusion 172 on the second turntable 170 gradually abuts against the boss on which the second switch 155 is installed, so that the second turntable 170 and the lever 130 stop rotating. The second protrusion 172 can cooperate with the boss of the second switch 155 during the return process of the lever 130 to prevent the lever 130 from rotating excessively.
[0056] In some embodiments, the educational toy 100 further includes a stopper 173, a first positioning groove 174 and / or a second positioning groove 175 are provided on the second rotating disk 170, the first positioning groove 174 and the second positioning groove 175 are arranged along the circumference of the second rotating disk 170, and the stopper 173 can be disengaged and extended into the first positioning groove 174 when the lever 130 is in the first position, and the stopper 173 can be disengaged and extended into the second positioning groove 175 when the lever 130 is in the second position. For details, please refer to Figure 4The housing 110 of the educational toy 100 is provided with a stop member 173, and the stop member 173 is opposite to the second rotating disk 170. The second rotating disk 170 may be provided with one positioning groove or two positioning grooves. Figure 4 The first positioning slot 174 and the second positioning slot 175 are shown. When only one positioning slot is provided on the second turntable 170, for example, only the first positioning slot 174 is provided, when the second turntable 170 rotates to the first position, the stop member 173 can be disengaged and extend into the first positioning slot 174, at which time the second turntable 170 triggers the second switch 155, and the speaker 140 emits background music. Similarly, when only the second positioning slot 175 is provided on the second turntable 170, when the second turntable 170 rotates to the second position, the stop member 173 can be disengaged and extend into the second positioning slot 175, at which time the second turntable 170 is away from the second switch 155, and the speaker 140 stops playing background music. When the second rotating disk 170 is provided with the first positioning groove 174 and the second positioning groove 175, when the second rotating disk 170 rotates to the first position, the stopper 173 can be disengaged and extend into the first positioning groove 174, at which time the second rotating disk 170 triggers the second switch 155, and the speaker 140 emits background music; when the second rotating disk 170 rotates to the second position, the stopper 173 can be disengaged and extend into the second positioning groove 175, at which time the second rotating disk 170 is away from the second switch 155, and the speaker 140 stops playing the background music. By setting the first positioning groove 174 and the second positioning groove 175, precise control of the educational toy 100 can be achieved.
[0057] In some embodiments, the educational toy 100 further includes a knob 180, which is disposed on the housing 110 and is rotatable.

Figure 1The surface of the shell 110 of the educational toy 100 is also provided with a knob 180, which can be turned by the user. When the user turns the knob 180, the knob 180 rotates and when it rotates to the second predetermined position, the speaker 140 can be controlled to switch the background music. When switching the background music, a song-switching transition music can be set to indicate that the next music is about to be switched. The song-switching transition music can be a short music or sound effect or prompt voice. Of course, when the lever 130 is in the second position, the educational toy 100 is in the off state, and turning the knob 180 at this time will not produce any sound effect. The rotation of the knob 180 provides an intuitive operation method for the user, allowing them to participate in the function control of the toy. This interactivity can increase the user's interest and participation in the educational toy 100. Through the rotation of the knob 180, the user needs to perform hand operation, which helps to exercise children's operation ability and hand-eye coordination ability, and can also provide a sensory satisfaction. The rotation of the knob 180 and the switching of the background music of the speaker 140 establish a relationship connection, so that the function of the educational toy 100 is enriched and expanded, and the logical thinking ability of the child can also be exercised.
[0058] Of course, in some embodiments, the knob 180 can also be configured to switch background music when rotated to any angle, and simultaneously emit song transition music. Such a configuration is more friendly to children who are younger, have less strength, or have limited operating abilities.
[0059] In some embodiments, the control assembly 150 further includes a third switch 157, and the educational toy 100 further includes a third turntable 190, which is connected to the knob 180 and rotates with the knob 180.
