Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present invention based on specific circumstances.
[0049] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figures 1-15 , provides a rotating globe, including a support member 100, a sphere 200, a traction member 420 and a driving mechanism 400.
[0050] Among them, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The sphere 200 is rotatably mounted on the support member 100 . The support member 100 may be a base or a bracket, and is mainly used to support the sphere 200 . The structure and shape of the sphere 200 are not limited herein.
[0051] Among them, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 There is friction between the traction member 420 and the ball 200, and the friction enables the ball 200 to rotate along with the traction member 420.
[0052] Among them, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The driving mechanism 400 is connected to the traction member 420 for driving the traction member 420 to rotate. During manual operation, the ball 200 overcomes the friction force under the action of external force and can rotate or stop rotating relative to the support member 100.
[0053] Compared with the prior art, the one or more technical solutions in the rotating globe provided by the embodiment of the present invention have at least one of the following technical effects:
[0054] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 There is friction between the sphere 200 and the traction member 420. During operation, the driving mechanism 400 drives the traction member 420 to rotate. The traction member 420 drives the sphere 200 to rotate with it through the above friction, so that the sphere 200 rotates automatically, improving the viewing experience of the globe.
[0055] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 During manual operation, the user can push the sphere 200 to rotate forward or reverse relative to the support member 100, and can also apply force on the sphere 200 to stop rotating, so that the user can observe the world map on the sphere 200 in detail.
[0056] Also, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 When the sphere 200 stops rotating, the traction member 420 can overcome the friction force and rotate idly relative to the sphere 200. There is no need to shut down the driving mechanism 400, and the driving mechanism 400 will not be damaged, and the operation is convenient.
[0057] It is understandable that during manual operation, the driving mechanism 400 is in a working state or a stopped working state.
[0058] In another embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 12-14 The traction member 420 is a traction shaft that is rotatably mounted on the support member 100. The ball 200 is rotatably connected to the traction shaft. Friction is generated between the ball 200 and the traction shaft. The driving mechanism 400 is mounted on the support member 100 and fixedly connected to one end of the traction shaft to drive the traction member 420 to rotate. Specifically, during operation, the driving mechanism 400 drives the traction member 420 to rotate. The traction member 420 drives the ball 200 to rotate along with it through the friction, causing the ball 200 to rotate automatically.
[0059] Further, refer to Figure 13 and Figure 14The support member 100 is provided with at least one first bearing 110. A protruding ring 421 is protrudingly provided on the central peripheral wall of the traction shaft. The traction shaft is rotatably connected to the first bearing 110, and the lower end of the protruding ring 421 abuts against the upper end of the first bearing 110, so that the traction shaft is rotatably provided on the support member 100. In a specific embodiment, the top of the support member 100 is provided with a through hole communicating with the interior thereof. The first bearing 110 can be installed in the top through hole of the support member 100 by means of snap connection, bonding, or screw connection. The driving mechanism 400 is provided inside the support member 100. The lower end of the traction shaft passes through the bearing hole of the first bearing 110 and extends into the interior of the support member 100 to be fixedly connected to the output end of the driving mechanism 400.
[0060] Further, refer to Figure 13 and Figure 14 The bottom of the sphere 200 is penetrated by a mounting hole 211 connected to its interior, and at least one second bearing 220 is provided in the mounting hole 211. The second bearing 220 is rotatably connected to the traction shaft, and the lower end of the second bearing 220 abuts against the upper end of the convex ring 421. The gravity of the sphere 200 acts on the first bearing 110 through the traction shaft, and the gravity of the sphere 200 is borne by the first bearing 110 on the support member 100. This gravity will not act on the driving mechanism 400, thereby preventing the driving mechanism 400 from being squeezed by a large gravity, so that the driving mechanism 400 can smoothly drive the traction shaft to rotate.
[0061] Among them, reference Figure 13 and Figure 14 The above-mentioned friction force exists between the mounting hole 211 and the second bearing 220, or the above-mentioned friction force exists between the second bearing 220 and the traction member 420, so that the traction shaft can drive the ball 200 to rotate with it through the friction force when rotating.
[0062] In another embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9The drive mechanism 400 includes a drive unit 410. The drive unit 410 is provided with an output shaft 411. The drive unit 410 is located within the sphere 200. One end of the output shaft 411 is movable through the sphere 200 and is fixedly connected to the support member 100. A traction member 420 is provided on the drive unit 410 and is coaxially arranged with the output shaft 411. When the drive unit 410 rotates relative to the output shaft 411, the traction member 420 is driven to rotate along with it. The output shaft 411 can be fixedly connected to the support member 100 by means of a snap connection, adhesive bonding, or screw connection. During operation, the output shaft 411 rotates. Since the output shaft 411 is fixedly connected to the support member 100, the drive unit 410 rotates relative to the output shaft 411. When the drive unit 410 rotates relative to the output shaft 411, the traction member 420 is driven to rotate along with it. The traction member 420 drives the sphere 200 to rotate along with it through the friction force mentioned above, causing the sphere 200 to rotate automatically. The structure is simple.
[0063] The traction member 420 and the driving unit 410 may be an integrated structure or a combined structure.
[0064] Further, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 One of the sphere 200 and the traction member 420 is provided with a plurality of tooth protrusions 430, while the other is provided with a plurality of tooth grooves 230. The plurality of tooth protrusions 430 engage with the tooth grooves 230, creating friction between the two. External force pushes the sphere 200, overcoming the friction, and causes each tooth protrusion 430 to sequentially move along the plurality of tooth grooves 230. The drive unit 410 rotates the traction member 420. The friction generated by the teeth protrusions 430 and the tooth grooves 230 drives the sphere 200 to rotate along with it, resulting in automatic rotation of the sphere 200. External force pushes the sphere 200 to overcome the friction force, so that each tooth protrusion 430 moves along the multiple tooth grooves 230 in sequence. That is, the user pushes the sphere 200 by hand to overcome the engaging friction force between the tooth protrusion 430 and the tooth groove 230, so that each tooth protrusion 430 moves along the multiple tooth grooves 230 in sequence, thereby pushing the sphere 200 to rotate forward or reverse relative to the support member 100. The user can also apply force on the sphere 200 by hand to overcome the engaging friction force between the tooth protrusion 430 and the tooth groove 230, so that the sphere 200 stops rotating, making it convenient for the user to observe the world map on the sphere 200 in detail.
[0065] In another embodiment, referring to Figure 9 and Figure 11The bottom of the sphere 200 is provided with an annular seat 210, and the annular seat 210 has a mounting hole 211. The support member 100 is provided with a mounting shaft 120, and the mounting hole 211 is rotatably connected to the mounting shaft 120, so that the sphere 200 can be stably rotated on the support member 100. Preferably, the mounting hole 211 is rotatably connected to the mounting shaft 120 through at least one linear bearing 130, so that the sphere 200 can be smoothly rotated on the support member 100.
[0066] Further, refer to Figure 9 and Figure 11 The output shaft 411 extends into the mounting hole 211 and is fixedly connected to the mounting shaft 120. One end of the traction member 420 extends into the mounting hole 211. The tooth protrusion 430 and the tooth groove 230 are respectively arranged on the hole wall of the mounting hole 211 and the peripheral wall of the traction member 420, that is, multiple tooth protrusions 430 are arranged around 421 on the hole wall of the mounting hole 211, and multiple tooth grooves 230 are arranged around the peripheral wall of the traction member 420, so that the multiple tooth protrusions 430 are respectively engaged with the tooth grooves 230 to create friction between the two.
[0067] In another embodiment, referring to Figure 9 and Figure 11 A plurality of tooth grooves 230 are arranged on the top of the annular seat 210, the traction member 420 is arranged at the bottom of the driving unit 410, and a plurality of tooth protrusions 430 and a ring 421 are arranged at the bottom of the traction member 420, so that the plurality of tooth protrusions 430 are respectively engaged with the tooth grooves 230 to create friction between the two.
[0068] It can be understood that the height of the tooth protrusion 430 and the depth of the tooth groove 230 are both very small. The tooth protrusion 430 and the tooth groove 230 are mainly used to create friction between the ball 200 and the traction member 420 to avoid the situation where the tooth protrusion 430 and the tooth groove 230 are stuck and the ball 200 cannot be pushed to rotate.
[0069] Among them, reference Figure 2 and Figure 6 When the driving unit 410 is located inside the sphere 200, the driving unit 410 can be located on the upper side or the lower side inside the sphere 200. When the driving unit 410 is provided on the support member 100, the driving unit 410 can be located on the upper side or the lower side outside the sphere 200, which is not limited here.
[0070] In another embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 11 、 Figure 12 and Figure 15The sphere 200 is transparent. When the drive mechanism 400 is disposed on the support member 100, a platform 320 or an ornament 300 is provided at one end of the traction shaft located within the sphere 200. Any ornament 300 can be mounted on the platform 320. The platform 320 and the ornament 300 can be secured to the upper end of the traction shaft by means of snap-fitting, bonding, or screwing. Specifically, the drive mechanism 400 drives the traction shaft to rotate, thereby driving the platform 320 or the ornament 300 to automatically rotate. This allows the ornament 300 to automatically rotate and present itself more comprehensively to the user. This facilitates the user's viewing of the ornament 300 through the transparent sphere 200, thereby enhancing the viewing experience of the globe.
[0071] Alternatively, in other embodiments, reference Figure 2 and Figure 7 When the drive unit 410 is located within the sphere 200, a platform 320 or an ornament 300 is provided on the drive unit 410. Any ornament 300 can be mounted on the platform 320. The platform 320 and the ornament 300 can be fixed to the upper end of the drive unit 410 by means of snapping, bonding, or screwing. Specifically, when the drive unit 410 rotates relative to the output shaft 411, the rotation of the drive unit 410 drives the platform 320 or the ornament 300 to automatically rotate, causing the ornament 300 to automatically rotate and present a more comprehensive view to the user. This facilitates the user's viewing of the ornament 300 through the transparent sphere 200, thereby enhancing the viewing experience of the globe.
[0072] In another embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 15 The surface of the sphere 200 is printed with a world map (not shown). The sphere 200 comprises an upper hemispherical shell 201 and a lower hemispherical shell 202. The opening perimeter of the lower hemispherical shell 202 is provided with an annular groove 203. The opening perimeter of the upper hemispherical shell 201 is removably engaged with the annular groove 203, so that the upper hemispherical shell 201 and the lower hemispherical shell 202 form the sphere 200. The user can install or remove the ornament 300 by removing the upper hemispherical shell 201, making it convenient for the user to install or remove the ornament 300. The material of the sphere 200 can be glass, acrylic, PC plastic, etc.
[0073] In another embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figures 1-15 , the driving mechanism 400 is a music box, a movement or a motor.
[0074] For example, the driving mechanism 400 is a music box. When the music box is mounted on the support 100, the output shaft 411 of the music box is fixedly connected to the lower end of the traction shaft. The music box is provided with a knob. The user twists the knob by hand to tighten the spring of the music box. Then, when the spring force gradually loosens, it generates power to drive the traction shaft to rotate. The traction member 420 drives the sphere 200 to rotate along with it through the above-mentioned friction force, causing the sphere 200 to rotate automatically. At the same time, the music box emits musical sounds, increasing the function of the globe. When the music box is inside the sphere 200, the lower end of the music box's output shaft 411 moves through the sphere 200 and is fixedly connected to the support member 100. The user can remove the upper hemispherical shell 201 and manually rotate the music box to tighten the music box's spring. Then, the upper hemispherical shell 201 is returned to the lower hemispherical shell 202. As the spring's elastic force gradually loosens, it generates power to drive the music box to rotate relative to the output shaft 411. The music box then drives the traction shaft to rotate. The traction member 420, through the aforementioned friction force, drives the sphere 200 to rotate along with it, causing the sphere 200 to rotate automatically. At the same time, the music box produces musical sounds, adding to the functionality of the globe. The music box is a mature existing technology.
[0075] For example, the drive mechanism 400 is a movement. When the movement is mounted on the support member 100, the movement's output shaft 411 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the traction shaft. The movement drives the traction shaft to rotate, and the traction member 420, through the friction force mentioned above, drives the sphere 200 to rotate along with it, causing the sphere 200 to rotate automatically. When the movement is located within the sphere 200, the lower end of the movement's output shaft 411 moves through the sphere 200 and is fixedly connected to the support member 100. When the movement rotates relative to the output shaft 411, the drive unit 410 rotates relative to the output shaft 411, driving the traction member 420 to rotate along with it. The traction member 420, through the friction force mentioned above, drives the sphere 200 to rotate along with it, causing the sphere 200 to rotate automatically. The movement can be an electronic movement or a mechanical movement, preferably an electronic movement. Both electronic and mechanical movements are mature existing technologies and are widely used in electronic watches, electronic clocks, mechanical watches, mechanical clocks, and the like.
[0076] For example, when the drive mechanism 400 is a motor, when the motor is mounted on the support member 100, the motor's output shaft 411 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the traction shaft. When the motor drives the traction shaft to rotate, the traction member 420, through the friction force mentioned above, drives the sphere 200 to rotate along with it, causing the sphere 200 to rotate automatically. When the motor is located within the sphere 200, the lower end of the motor's output shaft 411 moves through the sphere 200 and is fixedly connected to the support member 100. When the motor rotates relative to the output shaft 411, the drive unit 410 rotates relative to the output shaft 411, driving the traction member 420 to rotate along with it. The traction member 420, through the friction force mentioned above, drives the sphere 200 to rotate along with it, causing the sphere 200 to rotate automatically. The motor may be a reduction motor.
[0077] The rest of this embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment. The features not explained in this embodiment are all based on the explanations of the first embodiment and will not be described in detail here.
[0078] The above description further details the present invention in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, and should not be construed as limiting the specific implementation of the present invention to these descriptions. A person skilled in the art of the present invention will appreciate that its architecture is flexible and adaptable, allowing for the development of a series of products without departing from the present invention's concept. Simple deductions or substitutions should be considered within the scope of patent protection for the present invention as defined by the submitted claims.
