If there is a description of "first" or "second", it is only used for the purpose of distinguishing the technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.
[0026] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a steam train model according to an embodiment of the utility model comprises a boiler module 100, a wheel module 200 and a drive module 300, wherein the wheel module 200 is composed of a plurality of connecting rod wheel sets and a front steering wheel.
[0028] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, it can be understood that the boiler module 100 includes an outer shell 110 and a simulated steam component 120. The outer shell 110 is composed of a cylindrical shell 115 with openings at both ends and a detachable cover 116 that closes the openings at both ends. The simulated steam component 120 is installed in the outer shell 110. Specifically, the simulated steam component 120 includes a steam generating component 121 and a microphone 122. The steam generating component 121 can be set as a steam generator or evaporator suitable for a train model. A positioning step 111 is provided in the outer shell 110. The positioning step 111 divides the interior of the outer shell 110 into a first chamber 112 and a second chamber 113 along the horizontal direction (i.e., the length direction of the outer shell 110). The steam generating component 121 and the first chamber 112 are plugged in and matched, and the microphone 122 is installed in the second chamber 113.
[0029] By providing a positioning step 111, the positioning step 111 divides the interior of the shell 110 into a first chamber 112 and a second chamber 113, which can facilitate the positioning and installation of the steam generating component 121 and the first chamber 112, allowing the user to quickly assemble the boiler module 100, effectively improving the assembly convenience of the boiler module 100.
[0030] Furthermore, the steam generating part 121 is a pulse steam generator. The pulse steam generator can heat water intermittently as needed, so as to control the generation of steam more accurately and quickly. The steam generating part 121 is set as a pulse steam generator. On the one hand, compared with the traditional steam generator, the pulse steam generator has a faster start-up time and higher energy utilization, can reach the required working state in a short time, optimize the simulation effect, save energy, and start quickly. On the other hand, the pulse steam generator can be adjusted according to actual needs, adjust the amount and pressure of steam generated, adapt to the multi-operating condition simulation of the subsequent train model, and have greater realism.
[0031] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, it can be understood that the two sides of the microphone 122 are symmetrically provided with plug blocks 1221, and the second chamber 113 is provided with two opposite slots 1102, and the plug blocks 1221 and the slots 1102 correspond to each other one by one and are plugged together.
[0032] Since the structure of the microphone 122 itself is not suitable for pressure, the microphone 122 is usually not suitable for the plug-in installation structure similar to the steam generating part 121. By providing the plug block 1221 and the slot 1102, the installation structure of the microphone 122 is simplified, the assembly efficiency of the microphone 122 is improved, and the normal sound of the microphone 122 is ensured without interference, the structural rationality of the boiler module 100 is improved, and after the train model is assembled, the second chamber 113 can form an echo chamber to optimize the sound effect of the microphone 122.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, it can be understood that the wheel module 200 is provided with a first control board 210 and a bottom cover 240, the bottom cover 240 is located below the first control board 210, the outer shell 110 is provided with a stud 117, and the outer shell 110 is detachably mounted on the wheel module 200 through the stud 117 and the bottom cover 240, the wheel module 200 is provided with a plurality of support frames 230 matching the outer shape of the outer shell 110, the plurality of support frames 230 are spaced apart along the length direction of the outer shell 110 and are respectively abutted against the outer shell 110, and the microphone 122 emitted by the simulated steam component 120 is electrically connected to the first control board 210.
[0034] By setting up multiple support frames 230, the multiple support frames 230 support the shell 115 from multiple points along the length direction of the shell 110, which can evenly disperse the stress of the boiler module 100 and improve the installation stability of the boiler module 100. In addition, the bracket sets the shell 110 above the connecting rod wheel group, which can increase the distinction between the boiler module 100 and the wheel module 200. It is different from the design of the general train model shell 110 covering the wheel module 200, which makes it convenient for users to observe the details of the boiler module 100 and the wheel module 200, improves the user's playing experience, and is beneficial to the subsequent sounding of the microphone 122.
[0035] The driving module 300 has the appearance of a cargo box pulled by the boiler module 100 (front of the vehicle). The driving module 300 is provided with a motor and a traction wheel connected to the motor. The motor is arranged in the driving module 300. The driving module 300 is connected to one end of the outer shell 110 and the motor is electrically connected to the first control board 210.
[0036] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, it can be understood that, the first control board 210 is provided with a decoder 211, the first control board 210 and the decoder 211 are vertically cross-connected, the lower end of the shell 110 is provided with an opening for the decoder 211 to pass through (after the train model is assembled, the connecting plate closes the opening), the steam generating part 121, the microphone 122 and the decoder 211 are arranged in sequence along the horizontal direction and are all located in the shell 110, the steam generating part 121 is connected to an outlet 1211 passing through the shell 110, the shell 110 is provided with a sound outlet 1101, and the sound outlet 1101 is located below the microphone 122.
[0037] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, it can be understood that the microphone 122 and the first control board 210 are electrically connected. Specifically, the first control board 210 is provided with a first contact 212, and the side of the microphone 122 facing the decoder 211 is provided with two extended circuit boards 1222 and two extension frames for fixing the extended circuit boards 1222. The two extended circuit boards 1222 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the decoder 211, and the extended circuit board 1222 is provided with a first contact 1223 abutting against the first contact 212.
[0038] When assembling the train model, the user directly inserts the boiler module 100 onto the wheel module 200. At this time, the decoder 211 is inserted between the two extended circuit boards 1222 of the second chamber 113 from the lower end opening of the housing 110, and the first contact 212 abuts against the first contact 1223, thereby realizing the connection between the microphone 122 and the first control board 210. By providing an extension frame, the connection steps of the boiler module 100 and the wheel module 200 are followed, and the microphone 122 and the first control board 210 are automatically connected, simplifying the wiring structure, further improving the assembly efficiency of the train model, and avoiding interference between the microphone 122 and the decoder 211, thereby improving the structural rationality of the train model.
[0039] It should be noted that the wheel module 200 is further provided with a second control panel 220, which is located below the first control panel 210, and is electrically connected to the decoder 211, the headlights at the end of the wheel module 200, and the sidelights at both sides of the wheel module 200. The second control panel 220 can control the on / off display of the headlights and sidelights according to the signal of the decoder 211.
[0040] By setting up the second control panel 220 to control most of the light groups of the train model, the modularity of the train model can be further improved, making it easier for users to compile light control programs and reducing the difficulty of controlling the train model.
[0041] Reference Figure 2 As shown, it can be understood that the steam generating element 121 and the microphone 122 are electrically connected. Specifically, a contact plate 1224 is connected to the side of the microphone 122 facing the steam generating element 121, the contact plate 1224 is provided with a second contact point, and the steam generating element 121 is provided with a second contact 1212, and the second contact 1212 is in abutment with the second contact point.
[0042] When assembling the boiler module 100, the user sequentially inserts the pulse steam generator into the first chamber 112 and the microphone 122 into the second chamber 113, at which time the second contact point and the second contact 1212 abut against each other. By setting the second contact point and the second contact 1212, the microphone 122 and the pulse steam generator are automatically connected in accordance with the installation steps of the boiler module 100, the wiring structure is simplified, and the assembly efficiency of the train model is further improved.
[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it can be understood that the shell 110 is connected to the frame 130, the frame 130 is located between the shell 110 and the driving module 300, and a cab 131 is formed between the frame 130, one end of the shell 110 facing the driving module 300 and the wheel module 200, a lens is provided at one end of the shell 110 facing the driving module 300, the first control panel 210 is provided with a first lamp bead, and the lens is located between the first lamp bead and the cab 131.
[0044] By setting the first lamp bead and the lens, when the first control board 210 controls the microphone 122 to make a sound and the motor to work, the first lamp bead can emit light synchronously and illuminate the cab 131 through the lens, ensuring that the cab 131 can display different brightness and colors according to the sound of the microphone 122 and the working conditions of the motor. For example, when the motor accelerates and the sound of the microphone 122 is loud and rapid, the first lamp bead illuminates the cab 131 in red. For another example, when the motor decelerates and the sound of the microphone is low and slow, the first lamp bead illuminates the cab 131 in yellow, etc., effectively improving the realism of the train model.
[0045] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, it can be understood that a lamp board 123 is connected to the side of the steam generating part 121 facing away from the microphone 122, the lamp board 123 is provided with a second lamp bead, and a light guide 114 is provided at one end of the housing 110 facing away from the driving module 300, and the second lamp bead is arranged toward the light guide 114, and the light guide 114 is a light guide column made of light guide materials such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA, acrylic), polycarbonate (PC) or glass.
[0046] By setting a second lamp bead and a light guide 114, the microphone 122 controls the pulse steam generator to emit steam. At the same time, the pulse steam generator controls the second lamp bead to emit light according to the steam generation. The light of the second lamp bead simulates the headlights of the train through the light guide 114, so that the headlights of the train model can be simulated according to the operating conditions, thereby further improving the realism of the train model.
[0047] It is understandable that by setting the decoder 211, the user can burn a variety of complex sound and light control data, part of which is used to control the microphone 122 to make a sound, and the other part is used to control the light group connected to the second control board 220 to emit light. When the motor of the steam train model is started, stopped or running, the decoder 211 controls the microphone 122 to make a corresponding simulated sound according to the actual situation of the motor, and when the microphone 122 makes a sound, the microphone 122 controls the operation of the pulse steam generator according to the sound.
[0048] Specifically, for example: when the motor starts, the microphone 122 emits a train running sound from small to large, and the microphone 122 controls the pulse steam generator to start and generate steam; when the motor stops, the microphone 122 emits a train running sound from large to small, and the microphone 122 controls the pulse steam generator to shut down so that the generated steam gradually dissipates; when the motor speed remains unchanged (when running stably), the microphone 122 emits a stable and continuous train running sound, and the microphone 122 controls the pulse steam generator to continuously generate steam; when the motor accelerates, the microphone 122 emits a loud and rapid train acceleration sound, and the microphone 122 controls the pulse steam generator to quickly generate steam from light to thick; when the motor decelerates, the microphone 122 emits a low and slow train deceleration sound, and the microphone 122 controls the pulse steam generator to generate steam from thick to light. And when the motor is running, the first lamp bead and the second lamp bead of the train model also illuminate and change color synchronously.
[0049] The various components of the train model are linked in an orderly manner and cooperate with each other for simulation, which effectively improves the realism and playability of the train model. In addition, the steam generating part 121, the microphone 122 and the decoder 211 are installed in the shell 110 of the boiler module 100, and the driving module 300 is independently arranged outside the shell 110, which can effectively improve the modularity of the train model. The user can quickly debug the decoder 211 and the microphone 122 by disassembling the shell 110, thereby improving the scalability of the train model.
[0050] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
