[0022] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and marked in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely represents selected embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] The adjustable-light toy hippo disclosed in this utility model is mainly used in toy hippo scenarios.

[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 4 An adjustable-light toy hippo includes: a first shell 1 and a second shell 2, a tail 3 threadedly connected between one side of the first shell 1 and the second shell 2, two threaded frames 4 fixedly connected to the bottom of the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 respectively, support legs 5 threadedly connected inside the two threaded frames 4, a base 6 fixedly connected to the bottom of the support legs 5, and a connecting component provided between the interior of the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 for fixing the first shell 1 and the second shell 2.

[0025] The connecting component includes a first mounting block 7, which is fixedly connected to the inside of the first housing 1 at equal intervals. A mounting hole 8 is provided on one side of the first mounting block 7.

[0026] The connecting assembly also includes a second mounting block 9, which is fixedly connected to the inside of the second housing 2 at equal intervals. A connecting rod 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the second mounting block 9. One end of the connecting rod 10 extends into the inside of the mounting hole 8 and is fixedly connected to a round block 11. The outer side of the round block 11 abuts against one side of the first mounting block 7.

[0027] A cross groove 12 is formed on the surface of the circular block 11.

[0028] In the above technical solution, while traditional toys using bolts for assembly offer stability and detachability in some aspects, they also have drawbacks: small parts such as bolts and nuts can pose a choking hazard to children, especially young children, as loose or fallen parts may lead to accidental swallowing. Furthermore, toys using bolt connections may not be as aesthetically pleasing as one-piece molded toys, and the bolts may affect the overall appearance. To address these issues, the specific operation is as follows: By setting up a connecting component, the first outer shell 1 is aligned with the second outer shell 2, and the round block 11 corresponds to the mounting hole 8. Then, by pressing the first... The outer shell 1 and the second outer shell 2 utilize the cross groove 12 to deform the round block 11 under force, allowing it to pass through the mounting hole 8. When the round block 11 has completely passed through, it is no longer under force and returns to its original shape, being confined to the other side of the first mounting block 7. This completes the installation of the first outer shell 1 and the second outer shell 2 from the inside. Then, the tail 3 and the support leg 5 are tightened. The installation is done using a snap-fit ​​connection component, which is simple to operate. Assembly can be completed by simply pressing or inserting. Users do not need tools, which is extremely convenient for children and parents. It avoids the use of small screws or nuts and reduces the risk of children accidentally swallowing or choking on them, making it particularly suitable for toddler toys.

[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 4 In a preferred embodiment, both the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are fixedly connected to a lighting lamp 13; a battery frame 14 is fixedly connected inside the second housing 2, and a sealing plate 15 is provided inside the battery frame 14; a switch button 16 is provided on the outer shell of the second housing 2, and the lighting lamp 13 and the battery frame 14 are electrically connected to the switch button 16; the lighting lamp 13 uses an RGB LED, which can achieve multiple color changes. By electrically connecting the lighting lamp 13 and the battery frame 14 to the switch button 16, the current of the LED can be quickly switched using the switch button 16 control circuit, thereby adjusting its emission color.

[0030] Working principle: In use, by setting the connecting components, the first outer shell 1 and the second outer shell 2 are aligned, and the round block 11 corresponds to the mounting hole 8. By pressing the first outer shell 1 and the second outer shell 2, the round block 11 is deformed by the cross groove 12, so that it can pass through the mounting hole 8. When the round block 11 has completely passed through, it is no longer under pressure and returns to its original shape, being restricted to the other side of the first mounting block 7. Thus, the first outer shell 1 and the second outer shell 2 are installed from the inside. Then, the tail 3 and the support leg 5 are tightened. When it is necessary to disassemble and inspect the internal wiring, the tail 3 can be unscrewed, and then the first outer shell 1 and the second outer shell 2 can be pried open through the hole in the tail 3. All contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.
