[0023] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the following is a detailed description of the stamp for exploring animal footprints and the puzzle picture book set of the present invention in combination with the embodiments and drawings.

[0024] <Example>

[0025] The present embodiment provides a puzzle picture book set, which includes a plurality of stamps for simulating footprints of various animals and a matching picture book puzzle book.

[0026] Figure 1 It is a stereoscopic image of the seal used for exploring animal footprints in this embodiment.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, a stamp 10 for exploring animal footprints (hereinafter referred to as stamp 10) is used to simulate the footprints of an animal. For example, the stamp 10 can be pressed on soft materials such as sand and soil to generate corresponding simulated animal footprints thereon.

[0028] The stamp 10 includes a cushion 11 , a fixing component 12 and a foot model 13 .

[0029] The soft pad 11 is an oval plate, and is used to contact the user's hand or foot, so that the user can apply force to the stamp 10. A plurality of mounting holes are provided on the edge of the soft pad 11, and are used to install the fixing assembly 12. In this embodiment, the soft pad 11 is a colored silicone soft pad, which can be in a variety of colors, has bright colors, good elasticity, is safe to use, and can directly contact the palms or soles of children.

[0030] The fixing assembly 12 is used to fix the seal 10 on the user's hand or foot, so that the user can move the seal 10 and apply force to the seal 10. The fixing assembly 12 includes two straps 121 and a plurality of buckles 122. The two ends of each strap 121 are fixed to one side of the cushion 11 by the buckles 122, and the length of the strap 121 can be adjusted by the buckles 122. The two straps 121 are arranged on the same side of the cushion 11. One of the straps 121 is located in the middle of the length direction of the cushion 11, and the length direction of the strap 121 is roughly the same as the width direction of the cushion 11; the other strap 121 is slightly inclined relative to the width direction of the cushion 11, one end of which is located on one side of the width direction of the cushion 11 and close to the middle of the length direction of the cushion 11, and the other end is located on one side of the width direction of the cushion 11 and close to one end of the length direction of the cushion 11. In this embodiment, the strap 121 is made of canvas or PET, and the buckle 122 is a metal buckle. In an alternative solution, a plurality of straps 121 with various appearances may be provided, and the user may freely combine and use them.

[0031] The foot model 13 is used to generate simulated animal footprints, and includes a pad 131 , a plurality of arc-surface protrusions 132 , a plurality of cone-shaped protrusions 133 , and a plurality of connecting buckles 134 .

[0032] The pad 131 is in the shape of an oval plate, and its length and width are respectively smaller than the length and width of the cushion 11, or its length is respectively equal to the length and width of the cushion 11. The pad 131 is used to fix the sole model. The pad 131 is overlapped on the other side of the cushion 11 (i.e., the side without the strap 121), and is detachably mounted on the cushion 11 through a plurality of connecting buckles 134. In this embodiment, the pad 131 is a PVC plate, and the connecting buckle is a PVC connecting buckle.

[0033] A plurality of arc-surface protrusions 132 are respectively arranged on the pad 131, wherein the protrusion height of the middle part relative to the pad 131 is the highest, and the surface thereof is an arc-shaped surface, which is used to simulate the flesh pad of an animal. One of the arc-surface protrusions 132 is relatively large in size, and is arranged on the half of the length direction of the pad 131, and has three depressions on its edge, which is used to simulate the palm flesh pad of an animal. The remaining arc-surface protrusions 132 are relatively small in size, and are arranged on one side of the arc-surface protrusion 132 serving as the palm flesh pad, and are used to simulate the multiple toe flesh pads of an animal. In this embodiment, there are five arc-surface protrusions 132 in total.

[0034] A plurality of conical columnar protrusions 133 are respectively arranged on one side of each arc surface protrusion 132 serving as a toe pad, and close to one side edge in the length direction of the pad 131, for simulating an animal's paw. The diameter of one end of the conical columnar protrusion 133 arranged on the pad 131 is larger than the diameter of its outer end, and the diameter from the one end to the outer end changes approximately uniformly, and the outer end of the conical columnar protrusion 133 has a rounded corner.

[0035] The plurality of arc-surface protrusions 132 and the plurality of cone-shaped protrusions 133 constitute a plantar model of an animal. In this embodiment, the plantar model is made according to the corresponding plantar shape of a real animal, and the arc-surface protrusions 132 and the cone-shaped protrusions 133 are PVC parts formed on the pad 131 by a glue dripping process.

[0036] In this embodiment, the puzzle picture book set includes nine different stamps 10, corresponding to nine animals, namely, a red fox, a wolf, a medium-sized dog, a badger, a brown bear, a moose, a hare, a red squirrel and a ferret.

[0037] Among the nine types of seals 10, the lengths of the sole models are: red fox 7 cm, wolf 12 cm, medium-sized dog 12 cm, badger 8 cm, brown bear 20 cm, moose 20 cm, hare 6 cm, red squirrel 6 cm, and ferret 5 cm.

[0038] It can be seen that the lengths of the plantar models of the nine animals are different. Considering the cost and assembly issues of the production mold, in the seal 10 of this embodiment, the plantar model is formed on a pad 131 of a uniform size, and the pad 131 can be freely detachably installed on the silicone cushion 11.

[0039] Among them, brown bears and moose are large animals, and the length of their sole models is 20 cm. The corresponding seal 10 uses a large pad 131, and the size of the large pad 131 is 11 cm×20 cm×0.5 cm (width×length×thickness).

[0040] The remaining seven animals are relatively small and medium-sized animals, and the length of their sole models is 5 cm to 12 cm. The stamp 10 uses a small pad 131, and the size of the small pad 131 is 8 cm×12 cm×0.5 cm.

[0041] The length and width of the silicone soft pad 11 are slightly larger than the length and width of the corresponding pad 131, respectively, and the thickness of the silicone soft pad 11 is larger than the thickness of the corresponding pad 131. In this embodiment, the size of the silicone soft pad 11 corresponding to the large pad 131 is 12 cm × 21 cm × 2 cm, and the size of the silicone soft pad 11 corresponding to the small pad 131 is 9 cm × 13 cm × 2 cm.

[0042] The palm length of primary school children is about 12 cm to 13 cm. The above-mentioned padding and soft cushion sizes can enable the children to better grip and exert force. When exerting force, the palm or sole of the foot contacts the soft cushion instead of directly contacting the hard foot model.

[0043] The picture book puzzle book used in conjunction with the above-mentioned various stamps 10 contains puzzles in four chapters with corresponding answers. The puzzles in the four chapters are: morphological observation puzzles, reasoning puzzles, observation and reasoning puzzles, and grouping comparison and exploration puzzles.

[0044] The relevant pages of the observation morphology puzzles show individual animal footprints. Children can use common sense and the use of a variety of seals 10 to conduct independent research to find the animal that the footprints correspond to.

[0045] The pages of the reasoning puzzles show a series of footprints of two animals, as well as the footprints of a single animal in its living environment. Children need to infer what happened based on the pictures and whether there is a hunting relationship between the two animals, so as to understand the eating habits and habits of animals. In the process, you can also use the seal 10 to identify the animal corresponding to the footprint.

[0046] The relevant pages of the observation and reasoning puzzles show animal footprints in special states. Children need to combine Stamp 10 to freely explore the differences in animal footprints under different force conditions and infer the state of the animal based on this.

[0047] The relevant pages of the group comparison and exploration puzzles classify nine animals into three groups of footprints and two independent groups of footprints, targeting several knowledge levels. The specific groups are as follows:

[0048] Canidae group: red fox, grey wolf, medium-sized dog - revealing subtle differences between the paws of different canid species.

[0049] Tree climbing group: red squirrels, ferrets - there is a predator-prey relationship, and the claws have similar functions.

[0050] Five-toed group: badgers, brown bears - although they both have five toes and look similar, the length of their claws shows their different living habits and preferences.

[0051] Hare: implies the behavioral patterns of animals, such as how the force exerted when running is shown in the footprints.

[0052] Moose: A herbivore with large footprints (20 cm), corresponding to the bear (omnivore).

[0053] As mentioned above, through the above puzzle picture book set, children can learn and explore on their own. The role and effect of the embodiment

[0054] According to the seal and puzzle picture book set for exploring animal footprints provided in this embodiment, the seal includes a soft cushion, a fixing component and a foot model, which can be fixed on the user's hand or foot through the fixing component. The soft cushion protects the user and is more convenient for the user to apply force to form footprints on the soft material. The foot model can well simulate the sole of the animal's foot, thereby printing simulated animal footprints that are very close to real animal footprints, allowing users, especially children, to independently explore and learn about animal footprints, experience the formation process of different footprints and animal behaviors, and is highly targeted, practical and interesting. In addition, since the foot model can be detachably mounted on the soft cushion, for the simulation of different animal footprints, it is only necessary to replace different foot models, and the soft cushion and fixing component can use unified standard parts, thereby reducing the difficulty and cost of production, which is more conducive to the promotion of this product.

[0055] In the embodiment, the puzzle picture book set includes a total of nine kinds of animal footprint stamps, of which two large animal stamps use large cushions, and the remaining seven small and medium-sized animals use small cushions. Both cushions are oval plates, and the straps and the like are standard parts. Therefore, the multiple stamps in a set can utilize two simple cushions and multiple standard parts, which reduces costs and increases production and processing efficiency.

[0056] Furthermore, the soft cushion is a silicone cushion, which has good elasticity and is safe to use. It can directly contact the palms or soles of children so that children can apply force without causing injuries or allergies. The liner and the sole model are made of epoxy PVC material, which is harder and restores real animal footprints one to one. It can leave clear simulated footprints that are very close to real animal footprints on soft materials such as sand and soil, and has a long service life and is not prone to wear during long-term use.

[0057] Furthermore, the cushion is a colorful silicone cushion with bright colors. Different stamps can use cushions of different colors. The strap is made of canvas or PET and has a variety of appearances. The strap is detachably installed on the cushion and can be freely assembled and disassembled, which can further arouse children's interest.

[0058] Furthermore, the footprint stamps of various animals are used in conjunction with the corresponding picture book puzzle books. The picture books contain various puzzles, ranging from simple observation of form and recognition of animals to reasoning, role-playing, and truly understanding the behavioral logic of animals, etc., encouraging children to explore independently rather than just passively accepting knowledge.

[0059] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the specific implementation of the utility model, and the utility model is not limited to the description scope of the above embodiments. The technicians in this industry should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and the description are only to illustrate the principle of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model will have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected. The scope of protection of the utility model is defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.

[0060] For example, in the above embodiment, the puzzle picture book set includes nine stamps of nine animals. In an alternative solution, it may include only some of the stamps, or stamps of more animals. The corresponding animal species can be included in the picture book, and the corresponding technical effects can also be achieved.

[0061] In the above embodiment, a silicone cushion with straps is used in the seal, which can be worn on the hands or feet of the user. In an alternative solution, other wearable standard parts can also be used in the seal, such as gloves, shoe covers, etc. The above foot model part can be detachably installed on the gloves and shoe covers, which can also achieve the corresponding technical effect.

[0062] In the above embodiment, the picture book puzzle book is used in conjunction with the seal. In an alternative solution, other forms of information carriers may be used in conjunction with the seal, such as postcards and notebooks printed with corresponding information.
