[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of toy technology, specifically relating to a curved rod structure and a foot pedal piano fitness frame. Background Technology

[0002] A foot-operated piano gym is a creative children's toy that combines music and movement, designed to promote a baby's physical and intellectual development through this combination. It typically consists of a small piano keyboard and a pedal; babies activate the keyboard by stepping on the pedal, thus sparking their interest and love of music.

[0003] In the existing technology, the main way to play with the foot-operated piano baby gym is still in the foot-operated piano part. Since small babies cannot sit up yet and need to play while lying down, the curved bar structure that is within the baby's line of sight has a relatively simple function and is difficult to realize multi-functional play. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a curved rod structure. Through the design of the light-emitting component, a light control component is used to independently control the opening and closing of the light-emitting component, enabling the curved rod structure to have a light-emitting function. This effectively increases the functionality of the foot-operated piano exercise frame, realizing the functional diversity of the curved rod structure. Furthermore, by independently controlling the light-emitting component with the light control component, separating it from the circuitry of the foot-operated piano part, the flexibility of the toy's playability is effectively improved.

[0005] The technical effects to be achieved by this utility model are realized through the following aspects:

[0006] Firstly, this utility model provides a bent rod structure, including...

[0007] Light-emitting components are used to provide a light source;

[0008] A flexible tube assembly is fitted onto the light-emitting component, and the light emitted by the light-emitting component passes through the flexible tube assembly;

[0009] A fixing component is connected to both ends of the hose assembly to allow the hose assembly to be in a bent state; and

[0010] A light control component is electrically connected to the light-emitting component to control the light-emitting component to turn on or off.

[0039] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of this utility model.

[0040] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0041] Example 1:

[0042] Please see the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 2 The bent rod structure of this utility model includes a light-emitting component 11, a flexible tube assembly 12, a fixing component 13, and a light-controlling component 14. The light-emitting component 11 is used to provide a light source; the flexible tube assembly 12 is sleeved on the light-emitting component 11, and the light emitted by the light-emitting component 11 passes through the flexible tube assembly 12; the fixing component 13 is connected to both ends of the flexible tube assembly 12 so that the flexible tube assembly 12 is in a bent state; the light-controlling component 14 is electrically connected to the light-emitting component 11 to control the opening or closing of the light-emitting component.

[0043] Specifically, the light-emitting component 11 can be designed in various light-emitting modes, such as flashing mode and constant light mode.

[0044] In this embodiment, the curved rod structure 1 operates as follows: when the curved rod structure 1 needs to light up, the light-emitting component 11 is activated via the light control component 14, causing the light-emitting component 11 to emit light through the flexible tube component 12, thereby achieving the lighting function. Furthermore, the shape of the flexible tube component 12 is adjusted into a semi-circle by the fixing component 13, providing a flat space for the baby to lie down and facilitating the baby's viewing of the light show.

[0045] The above methods can effectively increase the playability of the bending rod structure 1, avoid the limitation of single function, improve the functional diversity of the bending rod structure 1, and independently control the light-emitting component 11 through the light control component 14, which is separate from the circuit of the foot piano part, thereby improving the flexibility of the toy's playability.

[0046] In addition, the overall structural design of the bent rod structure 1 is simple and ingenious, which facilitates mass production. Furthermore, the internal structure of the light-emitting component 11 is correspondingly improved within the flexible tube component 12, which does not take up space and does not require changes to customer usage habits.

[0047] Example 2:

[0048] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, please refer to... Figures 3-4 The light control component 14 in this embodiment includes a housing 141, a power supply 142, and a switch 143. The power supply 142 is disposed inside the housing 141 and is electrically connected to the light-emitting component 11. The switch 143 is connected in series between the light-emitting component 11 and the power supply 142. In this way, the switch 143 controls the circuit's shutdown. For multi-mode light emission, presets can be made between the light string 111 and the switch 143, and the switching of the light emission mode is achieved by repeatedly switching the switch 143. The overall operation is simple. Furthermore, the housing 141 ensures the operational stability of the power supply 142 and the switch 143.

[0049] The housing 141 includes a first housing 1411 and a second housing 1412 connected to each other. The first housing 1411 has an operation hole 1413 corresponding to the switch 143, and the second housing 1412 has a chamber 1414 corresponding to the power supply 142. Specifically, the operation hole 1413 is used to house the switch 143, facilitating user operation. The chamber 1414 is used to house the power supply 142, facilitating future replacement of the power supply 142, and ensuring the stability of the power supply 142's placement, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection between the power supply 142 and the light-emitting component 11. In this way, both the switch 143 and the power supply 142 have corresponding stable positions, facilitating subsequent maintenance and replacement, making operation quick and stable, and maintenance convenient and simple.

[0050] In some embodiments, see Figures 5-6 The light-emitting component 11 includes a string of lights 111 and a fixed light part 112. The fixed light part 112 is fitted onto the string of lights 111 so that the string of lights 111 follows the shape of the fixed light part 112. Through this arrangement, the string of lights 111 is shaped according to the shape of the fixed light part 112, preventing the string of lights 111 from falling off, which would cause changes in the light-emitting position and affect the aesthetics. This effectively ensures the connection stability of the string of lights 111 and guarantees the aesthetics of the light emission.

[0051] In some embodiments, the lamp holder 112 is a transparent tube 121-shaped lamp holder 112. In this way, the light string 111 can directly pass through the tubular lamp holder 112, thereby achieving stable shaping of the light string 111. This shaping method is simple, quick to assemble, and provides higher stability for the light string 111 compared to other adhesive fixing methods. Furthermore, by making the lamp holder 112 transparent, the light transmittance of the light-emitting component 11 can be improved, ensuring good light emission performance.

[0052] In some embodiments, the light string 111 is an LED light string 111. Preferably, the light string 111 is a seven-color LED light string 111. This configuration allows the light string 111 to randomly change the color of the light, improving the aesthetics of the emitted light.

[0053] In some embodiments, see Figures 7-8 The flexible tube assembly 12 includes a transparent tube 121 and a cotton tube 122. The transparent tube 121 is fitted onto the light-emitting component 11, and the cotton tube 122 is fitted onto the transparent tube 121. Specifically, the transparent tube 121 can be a PP transparent tube, and the cotton tube 122 can be a pearl cotton tube. This design allows the transparent tube 121 to protect the light-emitting component 11 and facilitates assembly with the fixing component 13, thus ensuring the flexible tube assembly 12 is semi-circular. Additionally, the cotton tube 122 provides cushioning protection for the infant, preventing bumps and knocks. Furthermore, the cotton tube 122 can absorb some of the light emitted by the light-emitting component 11, making the light softer.

[0054] In some embodiments, see Figure 9 The fixing component 13 includes a first fixing part 131 and a second fixing part 132. The first fixing part 131 is connected to one end of the flexible tube assembly 12, and the second fixing part 132 is connected between the flexible tube assembly 12 and the light control component 14. By adjusting the distance between the first fixing part 131 and the second fixing part 132, the flexible tube assembly 12 is made to be in a semi-circular state under force, providing the baby with a large visual space and a good experience.

[0055] In some embodiments, see Figure 10 The first fixing part 131 and the second fixing part 132 are each provided with a first fixing cavity 1311 and a second fixing cavity 1312. The first fixing cavity 1311 is located inside the first fixing part 131 or the second fixing part 132 to embed and fix the light-emitting component 11; the second fixing cavity 1312 is located outside the first fixing part 131 or the second fixing part 132 to embed and fix the flexible tube assembly 12. With this arrangement, both ends of the light-emitting component 11 are respectively embedded in the first fixing cavity 1311, and both ends of the flexible tube assembly 12 are respectively embedded in the second fixing cavity 1312, thereby ensuring that both the light-emitting component 11 and the flexible tube assembly 12 are in a semi-circular state, ensuring the balanced arrangement of the light-emitting component 11 inside the flexible tube assembly 12, and improving the stability of the light-emitting component 11 and the flexible tube assembly 12.

[0056] Example 3:

[0057] This embodiment is based on the above embodiment; please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 11 A foot pedal piano exercise frame is provided, including a frame 2, a piano structure 3, and a bent rod structure 1 as described above. The frame 2 is provided with a first end 21 and a second end 22 opposite to each other; the piano structure 3 is movably connected to the first end 21; and the bent rod structure 1 is fixedly inserted into the second end 22.

[0058] The foot-operated piano fitness rack in this embodiment uses a curved rod structure 1 to achieve independent light-emitting function, allowing for flexible viewing of light shows as needed, effectively increasing the functionality of the foot-operated piano fitness rack, realizing multiple ways to play, and meeting diverse customer needs.

[0059] The foot-operated piano play frame with illumination function has a simple overall structure, which facilitates mass production. Furthermore, due to the internal design of the curved rod structure 1, the external structure of the foot-operated piano play frame remains largely unchanged. Therefore, the space occupied by the foot-operated piano play frame in this embodiment is similar to that of conventional models, avoiding reduced space utilization and ensuring the comfort of the infant during play.
