Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of educational toys, in particular to a magnetic four - order mirror cube. Background Art
[0002] The four - order mirror cube belongs to an irregular cube and is a variant of the three - order cube, including a central axis, central blocks, edge blocks and corner blocks. At present, the four - order mirror cubes on the market are mainly mechanical. On the one hand, the surfaces of the corner blocks and edge blocks of the existing four - order mirror cubes are smooth, and the added lubricating oil is easy to flow away and cannot remain on the surfaces of the corner blocks and edge blocks, resulting in the cube being prone to dryness, affecting the feel and speed. Moreover, after adding the lubricating oil, the two contact surfaces will attract each other tightly, which will also increase the resistance, just like two glass plates will stick together when water gets in between them. On the other hand, mechanical cubes have problems such as poor positioning effect, low rotation efficiency and not - light rotation, which are time - consuming and laborious.
[0003] Therefore, it is urgent to improve the existing four - order mirror cubes to meet higher market demands. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a magnetic four - order mirror cube, which has the characteristics of simple structure, low friction and light rotation. It can achieve quick return through the mutual repulsion and attraction of magnetic forces, making the cube labor - saving during the restoration process and shortening the restoration time. It is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0005] A magnetic four - order mirror cube includes 8 corner blocks, 24 edge blocks, central blocks and an axis assembly; the corner blocks and the edge blocks are adjacent to each other, and multiple groups of adjacent edge blocks are included on the same surface; a first anti - sticking groove is arranged on the outer wall of each corner block, and a second anti - sticking groove is arranged on the outer wall of each edge block; a plurality of first magnet blocks are arranged on the inner wall of each corner block, and a plurality of second magnet blocks are arranged on the inner wall of each edge block; the first magnet blocks of the corner blocks and the second magnet blocks of the edge blocks at corresponding positions are set to attract each other with opposite poles; the second magnet blocks of one of the edge blocks at corresponding positions and the second magnet blocks of another adjacent edge block are set to attract each other with opposite poles.
[0006] The axis assembly includes a central axis and a plurality of magnetic core magnets; it also includes a plurality of hidden
[0007] supporting edges installed on the periphery of the axis assembly.
[0008] Preferably, a first clamping foot is arranged on each corner block, and a first foot magnet is arranged on the first clamping foot.
[0009] Preferably, in the non-rotating state, the core magnet and the first foot magnet are in corresponding positions, and the core magnet and the first foot magnet are arranged so that opposite poles attract each other.
[0010] Preferably, each of the hidden ridges is provided with a third magnet block.
[0011] Preferably, in the non-rotating state, the core magnet and the third magnet block are in non-corresponding positions; in the state where the Rubik's Cube is rotated by 45 degrees, the core magnet and some of the third magnet blocks are in corresponding positions, and the core magnet and the third magnet block are arranged so that like poles repel each other.
[0012] Preferably, the number of the hidden ridges is 12.
[0013] Preferably, the number of the first magnet blocks is 3, and the number of the second magnet blocks is 3.
[0014] The present utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:
[0015] (1) In this technical solution, anti-sticking grooves are provided on the outer walls of the corner blocks and edge blocks, and the first anti-sticking groove and the second anti-sticking groove are in a turtle-back pattern, which can better store the Rubik's Cube lubricating oil in the anti-sticking grooves, prevent adhesion between the components of the Rubik's Cube, reduce the resistance of rotational friction to the lowest level, and enable the Rubik's Cube to quickly enter the best state.
[0016] (2) In this technical solution, a first magnet block is provided on the inner wall of the corner block, and a second magnet block is provided on the inner wall of the edge block; the first magnet block and the second magnet block are arranged so that opposite poles attract each other. In this way, when the Rubik's Cube rotates, the magnet blocks can help the Rubik's Cube return to its position and can quickly return to its position under the action of the suction force between them, so as to reduce the time for restoring the Rubik's Cube. Moreover, the second magnet blocks of two adjacent edge blocks are also arranged so that opposite poles attract each other. When two adjacent edge blocks rotate to be nearly aligned, under the action of the opposite-pole attraction of the two second magnet blocks, they will automatically adsorb to align the two edge blocks.
[0017] (3) In this technical solution, a third magnet block is provided on the hidden ridge. In the state where the Rubik's Cube is rotated by 45 degrees, the core magnet and some of the third magnet blocks are in corresponding positions, and the core magnet and the third magnet block are arranged so that like poles repel each other. In this way, the repulsive force and inertia generated will push the rotating layer of the Rubik's Cube forward by more than 10 degrees. At this time, with a little more force, it can reach the position where the first foot magnet of the corner block and the core magnet attract each other. At this time, the rotating layer of the Rubik's Cube can be pulled by the suction force to achieve a faster return to its position. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0036] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "installed", "provided with", "sheathed / connected", "connected", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connected" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0037] This embodiment specifically discloses a magnetic four - order mirror cube, as Figure 1-4 shown, which includes 8 corner blocks 1, 24 edge blocks 2, center blocks 3 and an axis assembly 4; the corner blocks 1 and the edge blocks 2 are arranged adjacent to each other, and multiple groups of adjacent edge blocks 2 are included on the same surface; a first anti - sticking groove 11 is arranged on the outer wall of each corner block 1; a second anti - sticking groove 21 is arranged on the outer wall of each edge block 2; specifically, the first anti - sticking groove 11 and the second anti - sticking groove 21 are in a turtle - back pattern, which can better store the cube lubricant in the anti - sticking grooves, prevent adhesion between the components of the cube, reduce the resistance of rotational friction to the lowest level, and enable the cube to quickly enter the best state.
[0038] As Figure 3-6 shown, multiple first magnet blocks 12 are arranged on the inner wall of each corner block 1, and multiple second magnet blocks 22 are arranged on the inner wall of each edge block 2; the first magnet blocks 12 of the corner blocks 1 and the second magnet blocks 22 of the edge blocks 2 at corresponding positions are set to attract each other with opposite poles, that is, the first magnet blocks 12 at corresponding positions are at the N - pole, while the second magnet blocks 22 are at the S - pole, or vice versa; with such a setting, when the cube rotates, the magnet blocks can help the cube return to its position and can quickly return to its position under the action of the mutual suction force, so as to reduce the time for restoring the cube.
[0039] Preferably, the number of the first magnet blocks 12 is 3, and the number of the second magnet blocks 22 is 3.
[0040] Further, the second magnet blocks 22 of one of the edge blocks 2 at corresponding positions and the second magnet blocks 22 of another adjacent edge block 2 are arranged to attract each other with opposite poles; that is, the second magnet block 22 of one of the edge blocks 2 is at the N pole, while the second magnet block 22 of another adjacent edge block 2 is at the S pole, or vice versa; with such an arrangement, when the Rubik's Cube rotates, when two adjacent edge blocks 2 rotate close to alignment, under the action of the attraction between the opposite poles of the two second magnet blocks 22, they will automatically be attracted to align the two edge blocks 2, so as to help the Rubik's Cube quickly return to its original position and reduce the time for restoring the Rubik's Cube.
[0041] Specifically, as Figure 9 shown, the axis assembly 4 includes a central axis 41 and a plurality of core magnets 42; as Figure 10 shown, it further includes a plurality of hidden ribs 5 installed on the periphery of the axis assembly 4, and the number of the hidden ribs 5 is 12.
[0042] Specifically, as Figure 5 shown, each corner block 1 is provided with a first leg 13, and a first leg magnet 14 is arranged on the first leg 13.
[0043] As Figure 7-8 shown, in the non-rotating state, the core magnet 42 and the first leg magnet 14 are in corresponding positions, and the core magnet 42 and the first leg magnet 14 are arranged to attract each other with opposite poles. That is, the core magnet 42 in the corresponding position is at the N pole, while the first leg magnet 14 is at the S pole, or vice versa. With such an arrangement, when the Rubik's Cube has not rotated in place, the Rubik's Cube can easily return to its original position due to the magnetic attraction.
[0044] Specifically, as Figure 7-10 shown, each hidden rib 5 is provided with a third magnet block 51. In the non-rotating state, the core magnet 42 and the third magnet block 51 are not in corresponding positions; in the state where the Rubik's Cube rotates 45 degrees, the core magnet 42 and some of the third magnet blocks 51 are in corresponding positions, and the core magnet 42 and the third magnet block 51 are arranged to repel each other with the same poles. That is, the opposite ends of the core magnet 42 and the third magnet block 51 are both at the N pole, or both at the S pole.
[0045] With such an arrangement, the repulsive force and inertia generated will push the rotating layer of the Rubik's Cube to rotate forward by more than 10 degrees. At this time, with a little more force, it can reach the position where the first leg magnet 14 of the corner block 1 and the core magnet 42 attract each other. At this time, the rotating layer of the Rubik's Cube can be pulled by the suction force to achieve a faster return to its original position.
[0046] Through the suction force of the corner blocks 1 and the repulsive force of the hidden ribs 5 (i.e., corner suction and rib repulsion) in this application, repeated assistance is realized, making the Rubik's Cube labor-saving during the restoration process and shortening the restoration time.
[0047] Alternatively, in other embodiments, it can also be arranged that the core magnet 42 of the axis is arranged to repel the first foot magnet 14 of the corner block 1 with the same pole, and the core magnet 42 of the axis is arranged to attract the third magnet block 51 of the hidden rib 5 with the opposite pole, so as to achieve rib attracting and corner repelling.
[0048] The above is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present utility model; however, the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, according to the technical solution of the present utility model and its improved concept, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and all should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
