[0047] The utility model will be further explained and described through specific embodiments, and it should be understood that the purpose of the following embodiments is to make the technical scheme of the utility model more clear and easy to understand, and does not limit the protection scope of claims.

[0048] The utility model will be further described through specific embodiments.

[0049] EMBODIMENT

[0050] The embodiment provides a profiled electric toy, like Figure 1 、 5As shown in Figure 8, the device includes a body part 10, a head 20, a tail part 30, and a limb part 40. A power device 50 is installed inside the body part 10. The power device 50 and the limb part 40 are connected by a transmission mechanism 60. The power device 50 provides power, which is transmitted to the limb part 40 through the transmission mechanism 60 to drive the limb part 40 to move.

[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, the transmission mechanism 60 includes a first bevel gear 61 and a second bevel gear 62. The first bevel gear 61 is connected to the power device 50, and the first bevel gear 61 and the power device 50 can move synchronously. The power device 50 drives the first bevel gear 61 to rotate. The second bevel gear 62 is connected to the limb part 40, and the second bevel gear 62 is used to drive the limb part 40 to move. The second bevel gear 62 and the first bevel gear 61 are partially meshed at a certain angle.

[0052] It should be noted that the partial meshing here can also be understood as incomplete meshing, that is, only some of the teeth of the first bevel gear 61 and the second bevel gear 62 are engaged with each other. This allows the second bevel gear 62 to rotate at a certain tilt angle, thereby causing the limb part 40 connected to the second bevel gear 62 to move in a non-straight-line manner, that is, tilted to the torso part 10 rather than perpendicular to the torso part 10, and to perform the action.

[0053] In the prior art, the movements of the limbs 40 are all straight and linear, meaning that the axis around which the limbs 40 rotate is perpendicular to the body 10. The resulting movements are stiff and unnatural, and the rigidity of the mechanical components is clearly visible. In this application, because the second bevel gear 62 is inclined to the first bevel gear 61 and the two are not fully meshed, the non-straight and linear movements of the limbs 40 are achieved with the simplest possible structure without adding any additional transmission components. This can also be understood as a tilting and swaying movement, resulting in movements that are more realistic, natural, and consistent with the body posture of a real animal.

[0054] In this application, the toy is an overall cat-shaped object, with a head 20 that is a cat's head, a tail 30 that is a cat's tail, an oval-shaped body 10, and short limbs 40, which are provided with cat paws and cat palms; the toy can perform actions and postures including sitting, climbing, running, jumping, standing, and standing upside down.

[0055] Specifically, the relative angle between the second bevel gear 62 and the first bevel gear 61 ranges from 5 to 60 degrees. The specific angle can be set according to the shape of the animal being imitated. For example, felines have small movements and appear cute, so the angle can be set in a smaller range, such as 5-15 degrees; while apes have larger movements and more expansive motions, so the angle can be set in a larger range, such as 15-30 degrees; in some cases, the angle may exceed 30 degrees. The actual angle needs to be determined based on the movement posture of the animal being imitated. Generally speaking, 5-60 degrees covers the design requirements of most animals being imitated.

[0056] Specifically, the power unit 50 includes a gearbox 51, a motor, and a gear set 52. The gearbox 51 is fixedly installed inside the body part 10, the motor is installed inside the gearbox 51, and the transmission mechanism 60 is transmissionably connected to the motor through the gear set 52.

[0057] Specifically, the limb 40 includes a forelimb 41 and a hindlimb 42, both of which are connected to the power device 50 via a transmission mechanism 60. The motor includes a first motor 53 and a second motor 54 corresponding to the forelimb 41 and the hindlimb 42, respectively.

[0058] Specifically, the body part 10 has a battery compartment 511 inside.

[0059] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the second bevel gear 62 is provided with a bushing 621, the bushing 621 is provided with a key 43 hole, and the root of the limb part 40 is provided with a key 43 corresponding to the key 43 hole. The key 43 is engaged with the key 43 hole to realize that the second bevel gear 62 drives the limb part 40 to move synchronously and perform actions.

[0060] Specifically, a neck 70 is provided between the head 20 and the body 10.

[0061] Specifically, the side of the body part 10 is an arc-shaped surface.

[0062] Specifically, the body portion 10 is configured as a shell.

[0063] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the limb part 40 is connected to the second bevel gear 62 through the connecting part 11. The connecting part 11 includes a rotating wall 111 and a connecting through hole 112 disposed in the rotating wall 111. The key 43 of the limb part 40 passes through the connecting through hole 112 and is connected to the bushing 621 of the second bevel gear 62. The root of the limb part 40 rotates and swings along the rotating wall 111.

[0064] Specifically, the rotating wall 111 is provided with a limiting protrusion 113, the limb part 40 is provided with a semi-annular limiting groove 44 corresponding to the limiting protrusion 113, the limiting protrusion 113 and the limiting groove 44 are embeddedly connected, and the limiting protrusion 113 can slide along an arc line in the limiting groove 44.

[0065] It is worth noting that although only the limb part 40 makes the action in the embodiment, similar structures can also be used for other movable parts. For example, the head part 20 can be connected with the power device 50 through the transmission mechanism 60 to realize lateral inclination swing of the head part 20, that is, to make a non-straight motion similar to the limb part 40; for another example, the tail part 30 can be connected with the power device 50 through the transmission mechanism 60 to make a similar swing action; even, all the movable parts, such as the head part 20, the tail part 30 and the limb part 40, are connected with the power device 50 through the transmission mechanism 60, which is not an obstacle in specific implementation. The structure is suitable for limb transmission of any animal toy, and any transmission structure and principle consistent with the application belongs to the protection range of the patent.

[0066] The utility model is described through the embodiment, but does not constitute the limitation to the utility model, and other changes of the disclosed embodiment are easy to think of for the professional in the field according to the description of the utility model, and such changes should belong to the range defined in the utility model claim.
