Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of toy launchers, in particular to a launcher for an inertia vehicle toy. Background Art

[0002] Flying cart toys rely on the inertia of a flywheel to propel the wheels, requiring no batteries or other power sources. Due to their ease of use and low cost, they are popular with children and parents. However, most current flying carts are manually accelerated, which often hinders young children from gaining sufficient strength to achieve a high initial speed. This results in the cart being unable to travel long distances, making it less fun and less user-friendly, making it unsuitable for young children. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a launcher for flying cart toys that allows even young children to operate the cart for long distances. Utility Model Content

[0010] As a preferred solution, a first blocking block is protruding from the cavity wall, and an opening is formed between the first blocking block and the supporting plate. When the supporting plate is in the first position, the opening is used to restrict the inertia vehicle from passing through.

[0011] As a preferred solution, a second blocking block is provided on the cavity wall at the same side as the first blocking block. The second blocking block, the first blocking block and the supporting plate can together form a fixed cavity for limiting the movement of the inertia vehicle.

[0012] As a preferred solution, the trigger member is movably connected to the cavity through a compression spring and is at least partially exposed on the shell.

A slot is recessed on the outer side wall of one of the wings, and one of the elastic rods of the first torsion spring can be clamped and fixed in the slot, and the other elastic rod of the first torsion spring is in contact with the cavity wall of the cavity.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment, the acceleration gear set includes a sector-shaped tooth integrally formed on the handle, a first gear and a second gear connected for one-way rotation, and a third gear coaxially fixed with the power wheel, wherein the sector-shaped tooth is engaged with the first gear, the second gear is engaged with the third gear, and the third gear and the rotating shaft of the power wheel are movably connected in the cavity.

When playing, the inertia car is filled into the cavity. At this time, the trigger member can drive the carrier plate to the second position, so that the inertia car can enter the carrier plate and rotate with it to the first position. Then, by pressing the handle, the acceleration gear set is accelerated to drive the power wheel to rotate. Since the power wheel is in friction contact with the drive wheel of the inertia car, it can drive the drive wheel to rotate, thereby providing a larger initial speed for the inertia car. Finally, the trigger member drives the carrier plate to rotate again to the second position, so that the inertia car can drive out at a higher speed, achieving a relatively long distance travel. In summary, the launcher can easily and conveniently accelerate the inertia car through the acceleration component, so that the inertia car can travel a long distance, and the swing component can facilitate the fixing and release of the inertia car. It is easy to operate, and even young children can easily operate it, and the game experience is better. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Thus, a feature designated "first," "second," etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0030] In this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," "connect," "fixed," etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connection, detachable connection, or integral connection; mechanical connection or electrical connection; direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and internal communication between two components.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 This embodiment provides a launcher for an inertia vehicle toy, comprising a housing 100, a swing assembly 200, and an acceleration assembly 300. The swing assembly 200 is used to secure and release an inertia vehicle 400, and the acceleration assembly 300 is used to accelerate the inertia vehicle 400 to provide a relatively high rotation speed. This allows even young children to easily operate the launcher, allowing children of all ages to have a good gaming experience.

[0033] The housing 100 is composed of a first housing 101 and a second housing 102 that are joined together and fixed together. In this embodiment, the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are fixed together by inserting them into each other. A cavity 103 is defined between the first housing 101 and the second housing 102. An inlet and outlet 104 is defined on one side of the cavity 103. The inertia vehicle 400 can enter and exit the cavity 103 through the inlet and outlet 104. In other embodiments of the present invention, the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 can also be fixed together using other methods, such as screws, magnetic components, snaps, glue, welding, etc.

[0034] It will be appreciated that the housing 100 is provided with a sliding plate 110 at the entrance 104. In this embodiment, the sliding plate 110 extends downwardly and obliquely from the interior of the cavity 103 toward the exterior. The sliding plate 110 can engage with an external track, allowing the inertia vehicle 400 to enter the external track along the guidance of the sliding plate 110. Of course, the sliding plate 110 can also contact other surfaces (such as the ground), allowing the inertia vehicle 400 to slide along other surfaces along the guidance of the sliding plate 110. Furthermore, a step 111 is provided at one end of the sliding plate 110 corresponding to the supporting plate of the rocking assembly 200. The step 111 can receive the end of the supporting plate, allowing the supporting plate to relatively smoothly connect with the sliding plate 110, thereby improving the flatness of the sliding path of the inertia vehicle 400. In other embodiments of the present invention, the sliding plate 110 can be adjusted to a horizontally extending flat plate structure according to design requirements. Furthermore, the end of the sliding plate 110 can also be provided without the step 111.

[0035] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the cavity 103 wall is recessed with a retaining groove 120 adjacent to the step 111. This retaining groove 120 accommodates a retaining block connected to the support plate, providing a buffering effect and preventing the connection between the support plate and the step 111 from being damaged by excessive impact. The cavity 103 wall is also convexly provided with a first blocking block 130 and a second blocking block 140 spaced apart from the first blocking block 130. An opening 131 is formed between the first blocking block 130 and the support plate. The opening 131 can be adjusted as the support plate rotates, thereby restricting or releasing the inertia vehicle 400 from the support plate, allowing it to remain stationary on or off the support plate. The second blocking block 140, the first blocking block 130, and the support plate together form a fixed cavity 141 for restricting the forward and backward movement of the inertia vehicle 400. Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the cavity wall 103 may not have the limiting groove 120, and the corresponding limiting block may not be provided on the supporting plate. The cavity wall 103 may also not have the second blocking block 140, and the supporting plate must at least maintain the tendency for the inertia vehicle 400 to slide toward the first blocking block 130.

[0036] It should be noted that the cavity wall of the cavity 103 is relatively provided with two sliding grooves 150 at the position corresponding to the power wheel of the acceleration component 300. The rotating shaft of the power wheel is slidably connected in the sliding groove 150, so that the power wheel can slide back and forth along the sliding groove 150 under force to change its relative position in the cavity 103.

[0037] In this embodiment, the rocking assembly 200 includes a supporting plate 210, a trigger member 220, and a toggle member 230. The supporting plate 210 is rotatably connected to the cavity 103 via a first torsion spring 240. The trigger member 220 is movably connected to the cavity 103 via a compression spring and is at least partially exposed above the housing 100. The toggle member 230 is rotatably connected to the cavity 103. The first torsion spring 240 is used to drive the supporting plate 210 to rotate to a first position, and the trigger member 220 is used to flexibly drive the supporting plate 210 to rotate to a second position. Specifically, the two ends of the toggle member 230 respectively contact the supporting plate 210 and the trigger member 220. When the trigger member 220 moves, it can push the toggle member 230 to rotate, thereby driving the supporting plate 210 to rotate. In other embodiments of the present invention, the rocking assembly 200 may only include a supporting plate 210 and a trigger member 220. In this case, the trigger member 220 is rotatably connected to the cavity 103 and is at least partially exposed on the shell 100. One end of the trigger member 220 is in conflict with one end of the supporting plate 210. When the trigger member 220 rotates, it can push the supporting plate 210 to rotate.

[0038] As will be understood, the support plate 210 is provided with wings 211 on either side, between which the inertia vehicle 400 can be placed. A recessed slot 212 is formed on the outer wall of one of the wings 211. The recess 212 retains one of the elastic rods of the first torsion spring 240, while the other elastic rod of the first torsion spring 240 engages the wall of the cavity 103. Therefore, when the support plate 210 rotates from the first position to the second position, the two elastic rods of the first torsion spring 240 deform, allowing the first torsion spring 240 to store energy and, when the trigger member 220 is free of force, drive the support plate 210 to automatically rotate back to the first position. In the first position, the opening width of the opening 131 is much smaller than the width of the inertia vehicle 400. In this manner, the opening 131 serves to restrict the passage of the inertia vehicle 400, allowing the support plate 210 to confine the inertia vehicle 400 within the fixed cavity 141. Conversely, if the child presses the trigger member 220, the toggle member 230 rotates and pushes the supporting plate 210 to the second position. In the second position, the opening 131 is wide enough to allow the inertia vehicle 400 to pass through. At this time, the protruding plate 213 of the supporting plate 210 abuts against the step 111, and the stop block 214 is received in the stop groove 120, so that the supporting plate 210 can be stably connected to the sliding plate 110, allowing the inertia vehicle 400 to move outward.

[0039] It should be noted that a through hole 215 is further provided in the supporting plate 210 at a position corresponding to the driving wheel of the inertia vehicle 400 . The acceleration assembly 300 can contact the driving wheel through the through hole 215 to provide an initial rotation speed to the driving wheel.

[0040] The acceleration assembly 300 includes a handle 310 rotatably connected to the housing 100, a power wheel 320 in frictional contact with the drive wheel through the through hole 215, and an acceleration gear set 330 that is transmission-connected between the handle 310 and the power wheel 320. The handle 310 is provided with a pressing arm 311 and a limiting arc groove 312. The pressing arm 311 is rotatably extended out of the housing 100 for a child to press to start the acceleration assembly 300. The limiting arc groove 312 is slidably sleeved on the connecting column of the cavity 103, which serves to limit the rotation range of the handle 310 and increase the connection stability of the handle 310 in the cavity 103. The handle 310 is also rotationally connected to the cavity 103 by a second torsion spring 340. The second torsion spring 340 is used to drive the handle 310 to automatically rotate and reset, thereby improving the user experience.

[0041] It is understandable that the power wheel 320 can be in direct contact with the drive wheel of the inertia vehicle 400 and slip is not likely to occur between the two. The acceleration gear set 330 includes a sector tooth 331 integrally formed on the handle 310, a first gear 332 and a second gear 333 connected in one-way rotation, and a third gear 334 fixed coaxially with the power wheel 320. Among them, the sector tooth 331 is engaged with the first gear 332, the second gear 333 is engaged with the third gear 334, the first gear 332 is provided with at least one pawl, and the second gear 333 is provided with a ratchet ring 3331. The first gear 332 and the second gear 333 are connected in one-way rotation by the connection between the pawl 3321 and the ratchet ring 3331. The above arrangement ensures that the power wheel 320 will not rotate back and forth during the reciprocating rotation of the handle 310, thereby ensuring a good acceleration effect. Furthermore, the third gear 334 and the rotating shaft of the power wheel 320 are movably connected to the chute 150. This arrangement ensures that when the inertial vehicle 400 is pushed into the carrier plate 210, the moving power wheel 320 can be moved under force without generating resistance to the inertial vehicle 400's entry, thereby improving the user experience. At the same time, when the second gear 333 rotates, it can still push the third gear 334 and the power wheel 320 to rotate and move until they come into frictional contact with the drive wheel 430 of the inertial vehicle 400, ensuring the normal acceleration function.

[0042] In this embodiment, the inertial vehicle 400 is a motorcycle-shaped inertial vehicle, comprising a vehicle body 410, front wheels 420 and drive wheels 430 rotatably connected to the front and rear sides of the vehicle body 410, and a gearbox 440 mounted within the vehicle body 410. The gearbox 440 includes a first transmission gear 441, a second transmission gear 442, and a third transmission gear 443, which are sequentially meshed and connected to form an acceleration gear set. The first transmission gear 441 is coaxially fixed to the drive wheel 430, and the third transmission gear 443 is coaxially fixed to a flywheel (not shown). When the drive wheel 430 rotates under the power wheel 320, the transmission gears accelerate the flywheel to rotate and store energy. This allows the flywheel to release energy as a power source to continue moving the inertial vehicle 400 after the inertial vehicle 400 is released. In other embodiments of the present invention, the inertial vehicle 400 may adopt other vehicle models.

[0043] For clarity, certain features of the present invention described in the context of separate embodiments may be combined in a single embodiment. Furthermore, various features of the present invention described in the context of a single embodiment may also be used individually or in any suitable subcombination.
