Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of entertainment toys, and particularly relates to a water ball toy.
Background Art
[0002] Toys are indispensable playmates in children's growth. On the basis of improving children's cognitive abilities, game toys cultivate children's hands-on and brain-using abilities, develop their thinking, exercise operation skills and hand-eye coordination abilities. Currently, there is a game of throwing water balls, where balloons filled with water are thrown at players. The players being hit will get wet because the balloons burst, and the players will also try their best to avoid the flying water balls to achieve the purpose of entertainment. Existing toy water balls are divided into the following two types. The first type is disposable balloons, which cannot be used continuously after bursting. The second type is magnetic water balls. Through the suction of magnets, two petal bodies are combined. After the water ball is thrown and hits an object or a person, it overcomes the suction of the magnet and breaks open, so that the internal water diverges around to achieve the entertainment purpose. And a magnetic water ball, such as the invention patent with the publication number CN117504321A, discloses a toy water ball. The magnetic parts installed on the petal bodies attract each other so that the annular edge parts of the petal bodies are closely attached to form a water-blocking layer to seal the water-carrying cavity. Its material cost and assembly cost are high, and the magnet is easy to injure people, there are potential safety hazards.

Specific Embodiments
[0030] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.
[0031] When ordinal numbers such as "first" and "second" are mentioned in the embodiments of the present utility model, unless they actually express an order according to the context, they should be understood as only for distinction.
[0032] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it 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 components. 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 situations.
[0033] Specific embodiments are as follows Figures 1-3The water ball toy shown comprises: an elastic lower ball 1, which is provided with an upper opening 11, and a covering groove 2 is provided along the edge of the upper opening 11; an elastic upper ball 3, which is provided with a lower opening 31, and the edge of the lower opening 31 can be clamped in the covering groove 2; a ball connecting structure 4, which is provided between the elastic lower ball 1 and the elastic upper ball 3, when the edge of the lower opening 31 is clamped in the covering groove 2, a water storage cavity 5 is formed between the elastic upper ball 3 and the elastic lower ball 1, and the ball connecting structure 4 is used to fix the elastic upper ball 3 and the elastic lower ball 1. When assembled and used, the elastic upper ball and the elastic lower ball are covered to form a water storage cavity, and the elastic upper ball and the elastic lower ball can be opened to inject water into the water storage cavity, the edge of the lower opening of the elastic upper ball is clamped in the covering groove to form a seal, and the elastic upper ball and the elastic lower ball are fixedly connected by the ball connecting structure, without the need to use magnets for fixing, the production cost and assembly cost are low, and the use is safer. When the water ball is thrown out and collides, the edge of the lower opening 31 separates from the covering groove 2 to disperse the water to the surroundings, and the ball connection structure prevents the elastic lower ball 1 from separating from the elastic upper ball 3, making it more convenient to recycle and reinstall.
[0034] Specifically, the ball connection structure 4 includes: an annular protrusion 41, which is arranged on the elastic lower ball 1 and forms the covering groove 2 together with the elastic lower ball 1; a connecting hole 42, which radially penetrates the annular protrusion 41; a connecting rod 43, which is arranged on the inner wall of the elastic upper ball 3 and corresponds to and matches the connecting hole 42; when the edge of the lower opening 31 is stuck in the covering groove 2, the connecting rod 43 passes through the connecting hole 42 and extends into the water storage chamber 5. When the water ball is thrown out and a collision occurs, the edge of the lower opening 31 is separated from the covering groove 2 to disperse the water to the surroundings, and the elastic upper ball 3 is restricted from being separated from the elastic lower ball 1 by the connection of the connecting rod 43 and the connecting hole 42, so that it is more convenient to recycle and reinstall. At the same time, the connecting rod 43 can be pulled out of the connecting hole 42, so that the elastic lower ball 1 and the elastic upper ball 3 can be completely separated, and the edge cleans the inner wall of the elastic lower ball 1 and the elastic upper ball 3.
[0035] In addition, the spherical connection structure 4 also includes: a first limiting protrusion 44, which is radially extended inward along the annular protrusion 41; a second limiting protrusion 45, which is arranged on the side of the connecting rod 43. When the connecting rod 43 passes through the connecting hole 42 and extends into the water storage chamber 5, the second limiting protrusion 45 is located in the water storage chamber 5 and cooperates with the first limiting protrusion 44 to limit the movement of the connecting rod 43 in the direction of withdrawing from the connecting hole 42.
[0036] Furthermore, the radial dimension of the second limiting protrusion 45 gradually decreases from the outer wall to the inner wall of the elastic upper sphere 3 , so that the connecting rod 43 and the second limiting protrusion 45 can pass through the connecting hole 42 and be inserted into the water storage chamber 5 .
[0037] More specifically, the distance between the second limiting convex ring 45 and the elastic upper sphere 3 is less than the distance from the end of the first limiting convex ring 44 close to the second limiting convex ring 45 to the covering groove 2. So that the edge of the lower opening 31 of the elastic upper sphere 3 is in close contact with the groove wall of the covering groove 2 to achieve sealing.
[0038] Furthermore, the annular protrusion 41 is made of an elastic material, and the radial dimension of the connecting hole 42 is smaller than the radial dimension of the annular protrusion 41. When the connecting rod 43 passes through the connecting hole 42, the connecting hole 42 undergoes elastic deformation and clamps the connecting rod 43. Sealing and fixing are achieved through elastic deformation.
[0039] Still further, there are at least two sphere connection structures 4, and at least two sphere connection structures 4 are arranged equidistantly along the circumferential direction of the elastic lower sphere 1. So that the elastic lower sphere does not separate from the elastic upper sphere after the water ball toy is thrown and collides.
[0040] Specifically, the elastic lower sphere 1 and the annular protrusion 41 are of an integrally formed structure, reducing the production cost.
[0041] In addition, the elastic upper sphere 3 and the connecting rod 43 are of an integrally formed structure, reducing the production cost.
[0042] More specifically, the elastic lower sphere 1, the elastic upper sphere 3, and the annular protrusion 41 are made of silica gel material. They are safe and non-toxic and will not cause any harm to human health, and have a good touch, giving people a soft and comfortable feeling, and are safer to use.
[0043] As described above is an implementation manner provided in combination with specific content, and it is not considered that the specific implementation of the present utility model is only limited to these descriptions. At the same time, due to different industry names, it is not limited to the above names, nor to English names. Any structure similar or identical to the method and structure of the present utility model, or any technical deduction or replacement made under the premise of the concept of the present utility model, should be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model.
