AI Technical Summary
Small gliding toys are prone to slipping or flipping after being released, and cannot effectively simulate the process of a vehicle moving.
A counterweight ball bearing is installed on the chassis of the gliding toy. It is limited by a receiving groove and exposed at the bottom through a through hole, so that it contacts the ground. The counterweight ball bearing has a density greater than that of the chassis, which provides forward thrust and lowers the center of gravity to improve stability.
It enhances the stability and sliding distance of the sliding toys, reduces the risk of tipping over, and ensures that the toys can slide further.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toy technology, and in particular to a sliding toy. Background Technology
[0002] Sliding toys often have multiple rotating axles mounted on a chassis, with wheels attached to both ends of each axle. This allows users to experience the rolling motion of the wheels in a specific direction after the toy is released from their hands. For smaller, lightweight sliding toys, due to their lighter overall weight, the wheels are prone to slipping on the ground after release, and the toy may even flip over, failing to simulate the motion of a vehicle. Utility Model Content

The sliding toy also includes a counterweight ball and a receiving groove. The receiving groove is located on the upper side of the chassis and faces downwards, used to accommodate and limit the counterweight ball. The chassis has a through hole located below the receiving groove, used to expose the lower end of the counterweight ball.
[0006] The through hole is sized such that the counterweight ball can contact the ground but cannot completely pass through it; the density of the counterweight ball is greater than the density of the chassis.
[0007] Preferably, the number of the counterweight balls is one or more, and the through holes corresponding to all the counterweight balls are symmetrical about the longitudinal centerline of the chassis.
[0008] Preferably, the counterweight ball is made of metal.
[0009] Preferably, the counterweight ball is made of glass.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sliding toy to improve sliding stability and extend sliding distance.
[0028] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0029] Reference Figures 1-6 This embodiment provides a sliding toy, including a chassis 1 and a top cover 7. Multiple wheels 2 are rotatably mounted on the chassis 1. The sliding toy also includes counterweight balls 4 and a receiving groove 3. The receiving groove 3 is located on the upper side of the chassis 1 and faces downwards, used to receive and limit the counterweight balls 4. The chassis 1 has a through hole 5 located below the receiving groove 3, used to expose the lower end of the counterweight balls 4.
[0030] The through-hole 5 is sized such that the counterweight ball 4 can contact the ground but cannot completely pass through it. The density of the counterweight ball 4 is greater than that of the chassis 1.
[0031] The working principle of the sliding toy in this embodiment is as follows:
[0032] When a regular gliding toy (without the counterweight ball 4) and the counterweight ball 4 are launched at the same speed, the regular gliding toy stops first. This is because the acceleration exerted by friction on the counterweight ball 4 is relatively small. Therefore, in this embodiment, when the gliding toy moves, the counterweight ball 4 exerts a forward thrust on the chassis 1, enabling the gliding toy to slide a greater distance.
[0033] In addition, the counterweight ball 4 can lower the center of gravity of the sliding toy and play a role in suppressing the chassis 1, making the sliding toy less likely to flip over.
[0034] The wheels 2 mainly serve to support the chassis 1 and guide the sliding direction of the toy.
[0035] The receiving groove 3 includes a groove wall and a groove bottom, with the groove bottom located above the counterweight ball 4.
[0036] The tank wall and the tank bottom can be connected. For example, the lower end of the tank wall is connected to the chassis 1, and the upper end of the tank wall is connected to the tank bottom. Another example, refer to... Figure 4The upper end of the groove wall is connected to the top cover 7, and the bottom of the groove is part of the top cover 7.
[0037] The tank walls and bottom can also be separated from each other, for example, see reference. Figure 1 , Figure 5 The lower end of the trough wall is connected to the chassis 1, and the bottom of the trough is part of the upper cover 7.
[0038] The tank walls and bottom can be formed by surfaces, or by structures such as mesh or rods. (See reference) Figure 4 , Figure 5 The tank wall can be a continuous ring; refer to Figure 6 The tank walls can also be discontinuous and annular.
[0039] When the tank wall is enclosed by surfaces, the shape of the tank wall can be a cylindrical surface or a spherical surface; the shape of the tank wall can also be a plane, such as a square tank enclosed by four vertical planes. Figures 4-6 The groove wall shown is cylindrical in shape.
[0040] As a possible example, in this embodiment, the number of counterweight balls 4 is one or more, and the through holes 5 corresponding to all the counterweight balls 4 are symmetrical about the longitudinal centerline of the chassis 1. In this way, the total thrust of the counterweight balls 4 on the chassis 1 acts on the longitudinal centerline of the chassis 1, causing the sliding toy to travel in a straight line.
[0041] Depending on the specific needs, those skilled in the art can flexibly choose the material of the counterweight ball 4. For example, the counterweight ball 4 can be made of metal or glass.
[0042] As a possible example, in this embodiment, the length of the sliding toy is no greater than 8cm and the width is no greater than 4cm. Further, the length of the sliding toy is preferably no greater than 6cm, and the width of the sliding toy is preferably no greater than 3cm.
[0043] For example, wheel 2 includes two front wheels and two rear wheels. The two front wheels and two rear wheels are arranged in a rectangular pattern. There is one counterweight ball 4, and the through hole 5 corresponding to the counterweight ball 4 is located at the geometric center of the four wheels 2.
[0044] Compared to a setup with six or eight wheels, reducing the number of wheels lowers frictional resistance, allowing the gliding toy to travel a greater distance.
[0045] For example, two front wheels are respectively mounted on both ends of the front axle, and the front axle is rotatably connected to the chassis 1. Two rear wheels are respectively mounted on both ends of the rear axle, and the rear axle is rotatably connected to the chassis 1. Compared to the mounting method where each wheel 2 has a separate axle, the mounting method where both wheels 2 are mounted on the same axle is simpler to assemble.
[0046] As a possible example, in this embodiment, reference is made to... Figure 3 The sliding toy can be a tracked vehicle model whose upper cover 7 includes a body 8 and tracks 9 integrally formed with the body 8; see reference. Figure 2 The gliding toy can also be an armored vehicle model whose top cover 7 includes a body 8 and tires 10 integrally formed with the body 8. However, the actual implementation is not limited to this. For example, the gliding toy can also be an animal model or a human figure model.
[0047] As a possible example, in this embodiment, two screw positioning holes 6 are provided on the longitudinal centerline of the chassis 1, and the through holes 5 corresponding to the counterweight ball 4 are located at the center of the two screw positioning holes 6. After the screws pass through the screw positioning holes 6, they are threadedly connected to the upper cover 7, realizing a detachable fixed connection between the chassis 1 and the upper cover 7.
[0048] This utility model uses specific examples to illustrate its principles and implementation methods. The above description of the embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the idea of this utility model. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
