Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of auxiliary appliances for toys, and particularly relates to an induction chess piece for games with random color change. Background Art

[0002] Chess pieces are important auxiliary appliances in games, such as games like Flight Chess and Monopoly. Conventional chess pieces do not change according to the path taken during the game. Therefore, in the prior art, an induction chess piece for games is provided, which is triggered to light up or make a sound by setting a triggering structure on the chessboard. However, the lit color remains unchanged, which is not conducive to further enhancing the fun of the game. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide an induction chess piece for games that emits random colors when lit, thereby being conducive to further enhancing the fun of the game.

[0004] To solve the above technical problem, the utility model proposes an induction chess piece for games, which includes a housing. A battery, a magnetic control switch, and a lighting module are arranged in the housing. The battery, the magnetic control switch, and the lighting module are electrically connected in sequence. The magnetic control switch is used to cooperate with a magnet on the chessboard to trigger. The lighting module includes a circuit board and a multi-color LED chip arranged on the circuit board. A single-chip microcomputer is arranged on the circuit board. One pin of the single-chip microcomputer is connected to one color of the LED chip. When the magnet on the chessboard is triggered, the single-chip microcomputer is powered on to generate a random signal to light up at least one color of the LED chip.

[0005] In some embodiments, the housing includes a base and a cover shell, and the base and the cover shell are detachably connected.

[0006] In some embodiments, the battery, the magnetic control switch, and the lighting module are all arranged on the base.

[0007] In some embodiments, a protective housing is arranged on the circuit board. One side of the protective housing located at the cover shell is set as a light-transmitting part, and the light emitted by each LED chip enters the cover shell through the light-transmitting part.

[0008] In some embodiments, the inner side of the cover shell is provided with patterns, and the part enclosed by each pattern is a thin-wall light-transmitting part.

[0009] In some embodiments, the LED chip includes three colors of RGB.

[0010] In some embodiments, a fourth color is further included.

[0011] In some embodiments, the fourth color is obtained by mixing the three colors of RGB.

[0012] After adopting the above structure, compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages: The magnetic control switch is used to cooperate with the magnet on the chessboard to trigger the battery to supply power. After the power is supplied, the single-chip microcomputer is powered on to generate a random signal to light up these LED chips. The random signal can randomly conduct the pins connecting the LED chips through the built-in random function circuit of the single-chip microcomputer, thereby emitting random colors.

[0013] Taking advantage of the feature of random colors is conducive to further enhancing the fun of the game. For example, in a board game, when the colors are the same, they are teammates. In the next round, when the colors change, the teammate relationship also changes, thus increasing the fun. Another example is that in a board game, when a single chess piece triggers a random color, according to the definitions of different colors, different types of options can be triggered, such as options with different directions like traps, luck, etc., so that the game player can obtain the defined rights and interests. Another example is that in a board game, when multiple chess pieces trigger the same or different colors simultaneously, the definitions in this case can be triggered, such as different linkage options like teammate relationship, cooperation, assistance, restraint, etc. In short, the solution of the present disclosure can effectively increase the fun and game strategies.

Detailed Description of the Embodiment

[0020] The following description is used to disclose the present utility model so that those skilled in the art can implement the present utility model. The embodiments described below are only examples, and those skilled in the art can think of other obvious variations. The basic principles defined in the following description of the present utility model can be applied to other implementation schemes, variant schemes, improvement schemes, equivalent schemes, and other technical schemes that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Those skilled in the art should understand that in the disclosure of the present utility model, the orientation or positional relationship indicated by terms such as "longitudinal", "transverse", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limiting the present utility model.

[0022] Refer to Figures 1-5 As shown, the present disclosure discloses an inductive chess piece for games, including a housing. Inside the housing, there are a battery 3, a magnetic control switch 4, and a lighting module 5. The battery 3, the magnetic control switch 4, and the lighting module 5 are electrically connected in sequence. The magnetic control switch 4 is used to cooperate with a magnet on the chessboard to trigger. The lighting module 5 includes a circuit board 6 and a multi-color LED chip 7 provided on the circuit board 6. There is a single-chip microcomputer on the circuit board 6. One pin of the single-chip microcomputer is connected to one color of the LED chip. When the magnet on the chessboard is triggered, the single-chip microcomputer is powered on to generate a random signal to light at least one color of the LED chip.

[0023] The magnetic control switch 4 is, for example, a reed switch.

[0024] The model of the single-chip microcomputer is, for example, GPC74. As Figure 5 shown, when the magnetic control switch 4 is closed, the single-chip microcomputer is powered on and supplied power by the VDD terminal. The single-chip microcomputer has a high-level input signal through the pin IOH3. After internal operation of the single-chip microcomputer, at least one color of the LED chip is randomly turned on, thus realizing random lighting.

[0025] In this example, although an RGB three-color LED chip is exemplified, in order to achieve richer colors, other color LED chips can be considered for the LED chip, rather than just the RGB three colors.

[0026] Of course, it is also possible to mix colors by lighting different primary colors of the LED chip.

[0027] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 、 4As shown, the housing includes a base 1 and a cover 2, and the base 1 and the cover 2 are detachably connected. Although the cover 2 shown in the drawings is egg-shaped, it is not limited to the egg shape, and the specific shape of the cover 2 can adopt different outer shapes according to the needs of game settings, such as humanoid, plant, insect, and so on.

[0028] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 , 2 shown, the battery 3, the magnetic control switch 4, and the light-emitting module 5 are all arranged on the base 1.

[0029] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 shown, a protective housing 8 is covered on the circuit board 6, and one side of the protective housing 8 located on the side of the cover 2 is set as a light-transmitting part 9, and the light emitted by each LED chip is incident into the cover 2 through the light-transmitting part 9. In this way, it plays a protective role and is more durable.

[0030] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, the inner side of the cover 2 is provided with patterns 10, and the parts enclosed between the patterns 10 are thin-walled light-transmitting parts 11. In this way, the cover 2 has better light-transmitting performance, making it brighter, and at the same time, the cover 2 has better structural strength and is more durable.

[0031] The above are only examples of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made according to the structure, features, and principles described in the scope of the patent application of the present invention are included in the scope of the patent application of the present invention.
