Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toy technology, and more particularly to an action device and a multifunctional toy. Background Technology

[0002] In the existing technology, electric toys are diverse, mainly using sound, light, and electricity to produce various dynamic effects. Chinese document CN206138735U describes a toy duck. When played with, a drive device correspondingly drives a self-rotating lifting output shaft to perform rotation and lifting movements. An eccentric output shaft drives the crossbeam to move laterally back and forth, and with the cooperation of the feet, it presents a lateral walking and rocking motion. Simultaneously, the self-rotating lifting output shaft moves downwards to achieve overall upward movement, and the rotation of the self-rotating lifting output shaft achieves overall rotation. However, the toy duck cannot remain in only a walking or rotating state; that is, the player cannot independently choose the toy's action state, resulting in poor playability and practicality. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an action device and a multifunctional toy to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that, in the existing structure, players cannot independently choose the action state presented by the toy.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an actuation device, including a motor and a gear set, a support chassis exposed at the bottom of the toy, and a drive wheel and a switch at least partially exposed at the bottom of the toy.

[0006] The switch is movably mounted on the bottom of the toy and includes a toggle block and a push plate. The push plate has a guide slope on the side opposite to the connecting shaft and / or at the end of the connecting shaft in the direction of movement. The movement of the toggle block can drive the push plate to a first position away from the connecting shaft or a second position covering the connecting shaft. When the push plate is in the first position, the support base is lifted off the ground by the action of the elastic element. When the push plate is in the second position, the support base moves to support the ground under the push of the push plate and maintains engagement with the gear set through the connecting shaft.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the actuating block is movably exposed at the bottom of the toy through a switch hole. At least one side wall of the switch hole is provided with two slots spaced apart. The actuating block is provided with a locking point that is detachably fixed to the slot. When the locking point is fixed in the slot, the push plate is positioned in a first position or a second position.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the toy also includes a follower wheel exposed at the bottom of the toy. The follower wheel includes a support arm rotatably connected to the bottom of the toy and a wheel body rotatably connected to the support arm. The wheel body and the drive wheel are located on the same horizontal plane.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the end of the support arm is provided with a positioning strip, and there is an movable space between the positioning strip and the end of the support arm. The end of the support arm is detachably inserted into the connecting groove at the bottom of the toy. The inner wall of the connecting groove is provided with an arc-shaped toothed groove surface, and the outside of the positioning strip is provided with a positioning point that can be detachably fixed to any toothed groove of the arc-shaped toothed groove surface.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the toy also includes a mounting box fixed to the bottom of the toy. The mounting box is used to mount the motor, the gear set, and the connecting shaft. The mounting box is provided with a through hole and a connecting post.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the switch is a seven-shaped plate, with the toggle block provided at the end of one plate of the switch, and the push plate formed by the other plate of the switch. The push plate has a connection hole corresponding to the connecting post, and the connection hole is movably sleeved on the connecting post.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, a gear portion is formed on the connecting shaft to mesh with the gear set, and the elastic element is sleeved on the connecting shaft. The elastic element is supported and connected between the gear portion and the mounting box. The elastic element is used to support the end of the connecting shaft to protrude through the through hole when the push plate is in the first position.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the gear set includes a first gear set fixed to the output shaft of the motor, a second gear set fixed to the shaft of the drive wheel, and a third gear set meshing with or being meshable with the connecting shaft, wherein the second gear set and the third gear set are respectively meshed with the first gear set.

[0014] This utility model provides a multifunctional toy, including a shell, a drive device installed within the shell, and an actuation device as described above. The drive device includes a mounting frame, a launch shaft, a propulsion wheel, a propulsion plate, a drive assembly, and a control switch. The mounting frame has interconnected storage cavities and launch cavities that are respectively connected to the outside of the shell. The launch shaft is rotatably connected to the launch cavity.

The propulsion plate can reciprocate on the mounting frame under the action of the propulsion wheel and a spring. The control switch is electrically connected to the drive assembly and is abuttingly connected to the propulsion plate of the actuation device, used to start or stop the drive assembly when the propulsion plate moves.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment, the system also includes a gaming component, which includes a connector, an adapter pluggable to the connector, and a fitting pluggable to the connector and the adapter. The housing has a clearance groove at the cavity opening corresponding to the storage cavity and / or the firing cavity, and the connector is detachably fixed to the housing through the clearance groove.

[0016] Therefore, based on the technical means of this utility model, the effects that this utility model can achieve are briefly described as follows: The action device provided by this utility model connects the drive wheel and the supporting chassis to the motor through a gear set. It also allows the switch to be moved and mounted on the toy's base plate. The push plate of the switch has a guide slope on the side opposite to the connecting shaft and / or at the end of the connecting shaft in the direction of movement. Thus, as the push plate moves with the toggle block, it can move between a first position away from the connecting shaft and a second position covering the connecting shaft under the guidance of the guide slope. When the push plate is in the first position, the supporting chassis is lifted off the ground by the elastic element, and the drive wheel rotates while supporting the ground, exhibiting a moving state. When the push plate is in the second position, the supporting chassis moves and supports the ground under the push of the push plate, and the gear set meshes with the connecting shaft and rotates, exhibiting a rotating state. In summary, the action device provided by this utility model can keep the toy in a single moving or rotating state by moving the switch, giving the player a high degree of autonomy. Furthermore, the aforementioned motion device can be used in conjunction with other devices such as the drive mechanism and game components of the multifunctional toy to create various ways to play, thereby increasing the toy's playability, practicality, and versatility.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 to 10 This embodiment provides a multifunctional toy, including a housing 100, a drive device 200 and an action device 300 installed in the housing 100, and a game component 400 detachably connected to the housing 100.

[0035] The housing 100 includes a first housing 110 and a second housing 120 that are detachably connected, and a third housing 130 that is detachably connected to the bottom of the first housing 110 and the second housing 120. It is understood that a driving device 200 is fixedly installed between the first housing 110 and the second housing 120, and both housings have clearance grooves 101 at the opening positions of the storage cavity and / or emission cavity of the driving device 200. The clearance grooves 101 are L-shaped grooves with one end open to the outside, used for fixedly connecting the game component 400. An actuating device 300 is fixedly installed inside the third housing 130. In this embodiment, the third housing 130 is provided with a switch hole 131, a connecting groove 132, and a decorative compartment 133. The switch hole 131 is used to move the toggle block of the actuating device 300 and expose it on the housing 100. The connecting groove 132 is used to rotate the follower wheel of the actuating device 300 and expose it on the housing 100. The decorative compartment 133 is detachably connected to both sides of the third housing 130 and serves to decorate the appearance.

[0036] It should be noted that at least one side wall of the switch hole 131 is provided with two slots 1311, which are arc-shaped grooves for positioning and connecting the toggle block. The inner wall of the connecting groove 132 is provided with an arc-shaped toothed surface 1321 for positioning and connecting the follower wheel. The interior of the decorative compartment 133 is provided with a storage cavity 1331 for fixing and installing the power supply device, which can improve the rationality of the space distribution within the third housing 130. In other embodiments of this utility model, the third housing 130 may omit the connecting groove 132 and / or the decorative compartment 133 according to the structural adjustment of the actuating device 300. The switch hole 131 may not be provided with slots 1311, and similarly, the inner wall of the connecting groove 132 may not be provided with arc-shaped toothed surface 1321. The power supply device may not be provided inside the decorative compartment 133, and the power supply device may be directly installed inside the third housing 130.

[0037] The drive unit 200 is used to continuously launch flying saucer toys. The drive unit 200 includes a mounting frame 210, a launch shaft 220, a propulsion wheel 230, a propulsion plate 240, a drive assembly 250, and a control switch 260.

[0038] The mounting bracket 210 includes a detachably connected upper housing 211 and a lower housing 212. The upper housing 211 has a storage cavity 2111 and a launching cavity 2112 that are interconnected and respectively connected to the outside of the housing 100. It is understood that the storage cavity 2111 and the launching cavity 2112 are connected through a through hole 2113, which allows the flying saucer toy to pass through, enabling the flying saucer toy to move from the storage cavity 2111 to the launching cavity 2112 under force. The upper housing 211 also has a first mounting cavity 2114, which communicates with the launching cavity 2112 and is used to connect the launching cavity 2112 to the launching shaft 220.

[0039] A cavity is provided between the lower housing 220 and the upper housing 210, the cavity being used to movably mount the propulsion wheel 230 and the propulsion plate 240. A second mounting cavity 2121 is provided inside the lower housing 220, the second mounting cavity 2121 communicating with the cavity, for connecting the drive assembly 250.

[0040] The launch shaft 220 includes a shaft 221 and a first transmission gear set 222 connected by transmission. The shaft 221 is rotatably connected within the launch cavity 2112. The distance between the top of the shaft 221 and the plane containing the bottom wall of the storage cavity 2111 is greater than or equal to zero, ensuring that the shaft 221 cannot interfere with the movement of the flying saucer toy as it moves into the launch cavity 2112, allowing the flying saucer to slide smoothly into the launch cavity 2112. The first transmission gear set 222 is rotatably mounted in the first mounting cavity 2114. In this embodiment, the first transmission gear set 222 consists of two meshing gears. These two gears, together with the shaft 221, form an acceleration gear set, which is used to accelerate the rotation of the shaft 221 under the control of the propulsion plate 240, increasing the probability of successfully launching the flying saucer.

[0041] It should be noted that both the shaft 221 and the flying saucer toy adopt structures disclosed in the prior art, and their driving principles have been disclosed in the prior art, so they will not be described in detail here. In other embodiments of this utility model, the launching shaft 220 may only include the shaft 221. In this case, the end of the shaft 221 is provided with a gear part, which is directly meshed with the propulsion plate 240. Correspondingly, the first transmission gear set 222 may be provided with one or more gears.

[0042] The propulsion wheel 230 is driven and connected to the drive assembly 250 and rotates under its control. The propulsion wheel 230 is provided with an eccentric block 231, which is detachably abutted against the propulsion plate 240. It is used to push the propulsion plate 240 from the initial position to the propulsion position during the continuous rotation of the propulsion wheel 230.

[0043] A spring (such as a tension spring) connects the propulsion plate 240 and the mounting frame 210. Under the action of the propulsion wheel 230 and the spring, the propulsion plate 240 can reciprocate on the mounting frame 210 to continuously propel the flying saucer toy into the launch chamber 2112 and then launch it. Specifically, a follower block 241 is provided on the side wall of the propulsion plate 240 relative to the propulsion wheel 230. The follower block 241 is detachably connected to the eccentric block 231. When the propulsion wheel 230 rotates until the eccentric block 231 abuts against the follower block 241, the propulsion plate 240 can be pushed by the eccentric block 231 from the initial position to the propulsion position. When the propulsion wheel 230 rotates until the eccentric block 231 separates from the follower block 241, the propulsion plate 240 can be pushed by the spring from the propulsion position back to the initial position.

[0044] The propulsion plate 240 is movably connected to the interior of the storage cavity 2111 via the push arm 242 and is driven by the launch shaft 220 via the rack plate 243. It is understood that the end of the push arm 242 is rotatably connected to the push block 2421 via a torsion spring. The push block 2421 moves with the push arm 242, pushing the flying saucer toy in the storage cavity 2111 towards the launch cavity 2112. Simultaneously, since the push block 2421 rotates on the push arm 242 via the torsion spring, during the movement of the push arm 242 towards the initial position, the push block 2421 can come into contact with another flying saucer toy at the bottom of the storage cavity 2111 and rotate, allowing the push arm 242 to move normally towards the initial position. The rack plate 243 meshes with the first transmission gear set 222, thereby driving the shaft 221 to rotate at high speed via the first transmission gear set 222.

[0045] The drive assembly 250 includes a starter motor 251 and a second transmission gear set 252, which is used to drive the starter motor 251 and the drive wheel 230. When the starter motor 251 starts, it can drive the drive wheel 230 to rotate continuously through the second transmission gear set 252.

[0046] Control switch 260 is electrically connected to starter motor 251. Control switch 260 is fixed to the mounting box of actuator 300 and is in contact with the push plate of actuator 300, used to start or stop starter motor 251 when the push plate moves. It is understood that control switch 260 can switch different game functions in conjunction with actuator 300 when switching state modes.

[0047] It should be noted that, during gameplay, the drive device 200 provided in this embodiment first activates the starter motor 251 via the control switch 260, which drives the propulsion wheel 230 to rotate continuously via the second transmission gear set 252. During this process, the eccentric block 231 rotates to contact and push the follower block 241, allowing the propulsion plate 240 to move from its initial position to the propulsion position. At this time, the push arm 242 moves from one side of the storage cavity 2111 to the through hole 2113, enabling the push block 2421 to push the flying saucer toy on the bottom wall of the storage cavity 2111 towards the launch cavity 2112. When the propulsion plate 240 is in the propulsion position, the flying saucer toy falls into the launch cavity 2112 and connects to the shaft 221. As the eccentric block 231 continues to rotate, it separates from the follower block 241. The propulsion plate 240 is then pushed by the spring to move towards the initial position. At this time, the rack plate 243 drives the drive shaft 221 to rotate at high speed via the first transmission gear set 222, outputting torque to the flying saucer toy, causing it to rotate and fly away from the launch chamber 2112. During the continuous rotation of the propulsion wheel 230, the propulsion plate 240 can continuously move between the initial position and the propulsion position, thus cyclically performing the steps of pushing the flying saucer to move and driving its rotation, achieving automatic and continuous launch of the flying saucer toy. It can be understood that during the operation of the drive device 200, the number of flying saucer toys launched and the game time can be increased by continuously adding flying saucer toys into the storage chamber 2111.

[0048] In this embodiment, the actuating device 300 includes a mounting box 310, a motor 320 and a gear set 330 mounted in the mounting box 310, and a support chassis 340, a drive wheel 350, a follower wheel 360, and a switch 370 exposed at the bottom of the housing 100. In other embodiments of this utility model, the actuating device 300 may not have a mounting box 310 and / or a follower wheel 360. If the mounting box 310 is not provided, the motor 320 and the gear set 330 are directly mounted in the third housing 130. If the follower wheel 360 is not provided, the third housing 130 may not have a corresponding connecting groove 132.

[0049] The mounting box 310 is fixed inside the third housing 130. The mounting box 310 has a through hole 311, a connecting post 312, and a mounting groove 313. A connecting shaft supporting the base 340 moves through the through hole 311, allowing the connecting shaft to protrude outside the mounting box 310. The connecting post 312 is used to move the push plate of the switch 370, and the mounting groove 313 is used to fix the control switch 260.

[0050] The gear set 330 includes a first gear set 331 fixed to the output shaft of the motor 320, a second gear set 332 fixed to the rotating shaft of the drive wheel 350, and a third gear set 333 meshing with (or capable of meshing with) the support chassis 340. The second gear set 332 and the third gear set 333 are respectively meshed with the first gear set 331. When the motor 320 is started, the first gear set 331 can drive the second gear set 332 and the third gear set 333 to rotate simultaneously, thereby driving the drive wheel 350 and the support chassis 340 to rotate.

[0051] It is understood that in this embodiment, the first gear set 331 includes three gears meshing sequentially, the second gear set 332 includes two gears meshing sequentially, and the third gear set 333 includes three gears meshing sequentially. A reduction gear system is formed between the first gear set 331 and the second gear set 332, and also between the first gear set 331 and the third gear set 333, used to reduce the torque of the motor 320 and transmit it to the drive wheel 350 and the support chassis 340, thereby improving operational stability. In other embodiments of this invention, the first gear set 331, the second gear set 332, and the third gear set 333 can be configured with different numbers of meshing gears depending on the output torque of the motor 320.

[0052] A connecting shaft 341 is fixed on the supporting chassis 340. A gear portion 342 is formed on the connecting shaft 341 that meshes with the third gear set 333. An elastic element (such as a compression spring) is sleeved on the connecting shaft 341, supporting the gear portion 342 and the mounting box 310. In this embodiment, a first guide slope 343 is inclined at the end of the connecting shaft 341. The first guide slope 343 protrudes from the mounting box 310 through a through hole 311, and is used to contact the switch 370 when it moves, so that the switch 370 can push the connecting shaft 341 to move and compress the elastic element through the guidance of the first guide slope 343. It is understood that the elastic element is used to support the end of the connecting shaft 341 protruding from the through hole 311 when the connecting shaft 341 is separated from the switch 370. In other embodiments of this utility model, the end of the connecting shaft 341 may not be provided with the first guide slope 343. In this case, the switching switch 370 needs to be provided with a guide slope on the side opposite to the connecting shaft 341 in the moving direction, so as to guide and push the connecting shaft 341 to move.

[0053] At least a portion of the drive wheel 350 is exposed on the third housing 130. The drive wheel 350 consists of two wheel bodies fixed on a pivot and is driven to rotate by the second gear set 332. It is understood that when the drive wheel 350 touches the ground, the toy can move by rotating the drive wheel 350.

[0054] The follower wheel 350 includes a support arm 361 rotatably connected to the connecting groove 132 and a wheel body 362 rotatably connected to the support arm 361. The end of the support arm 361 is provided with a positioning strip 3611, and there is a movable space between the positioning strip 3611 and the end of the support arm 361. The outer side of the positioning strip 3611 is provided with a positioning point 3612 that is detachably fixed to any tooth of the arc-shaped toothed surface 1321. It can be understood that the end of the support arm 361 is detachably inserted into the connecting groove 132, at which time the positioning point 3612 is fixed to one of the toothed grooves of the arc-shaped toothed surface 1321. The wheel body 362 and the drive wheel 350 are located on the same horizontal plane. The player can change the connection position of the positioning point 3612 within the arc-shaped toothed surface 1321 by rotating the support arm 361, thereby changing the direction of the wheel body 362. When wheel 362 and drive wheel 350 are in the same direction, the rotation of drive wheel 350 can achieve straight-line movement; when wheel 362 and drive wheel 350 are not in the same direction, the rotation of drive wheel 350 can achieve turning and circling movement.

[0055] The switch 370 is movably mounted on the third housing 130 and includes a toggle block 371 and a push plate 372. In this embodiment, the switch 370 is a U-shaped plate, with the toggle block 371 at one end of one plate and the push plate 372 formed by the other plate. In other embodiments of this invention, the switch 370 can be adjusted to other shapes according to design requirements.

[0056] The toggle block 371 is movably connected within the switch hole 131 and exposed in the housing 100 through the switch hole 131. The toggle block 371 is provided with a locking point 3711 that is detachably fixed to the locking slot 1311. When the locking point 3711 is fixed within the locking slot 1311, the push plate 372 is positioned in either the first or the second position. Specifically, when the player drives the switch 370 to move via the toggle block 371, the push plate 372 can be moved to either the first position away from the connecting shaft 341 or the second position covering the connecting shaft 341.

[0057] The push plate 372 has a connecting hole 3721 corresponding to the connecting post 312. The connecting hole 3721 is movably sleeved on the connecting post 312, allowing the push plate 372 to move relatively stably and connect to the outside of the mounting box 310. In this embodiment, the push plate 372 has a second guide slope 3722 inclined on the side opposite to the connecting shaft 341 in the moving direction. The second guide slope 3722 has the same inclination direction as the first guide slope 343, which is used to further improve the feasibility and convenience of movement between the push plate 372 and the connecting shaft 341. The push plate 372 has a switch groove 3723 corresponding to the mounting groove 313. The switch groove 3723 covers the control switch 260 and is used to push the control end of the control switch 260 to move during the reciprocating movement of the push plate 372, so as to control the start or stop of the starter motor 251. In other embodiments of this utility model, if the connecting shaft 341 has a first guide slope 343, the push plate 372 may not have a second guide slope 3722.

[0058] It should be noted that the action device 300 can keep the toy in a moving or rotating state. Specifically, when the push plate 372 is moved to the first position by the toggle block 371, the connecting shaft 341 separates from the push plate 372, allowing the support base 340 to lift off the ground under the action of the elastic element. At this time, the drive wheel 350 and the follower wheel 360 touch the ground and move. At the same time, the control switch 260 controls the starter motor 251 to work, so that the toy exhibits a straight-line movement or a circular movement. Players can put multiple flying saucer toys into the storage cavity 2111 to play a flying saucer launching game through the drive device 200. When the push plate 372 is moved to the second position by the toggle block 371, the connecting shaft 341 is pushed downward by the push plate 372 to compress the elastic element, so that the support base 340 can maintain engagement with the third gear group 333 through the connecting shaft 341 while moving downward to support the ground. At this time, the drive wheel 350 and the follower wheel 360 are off the ground, and the control switch 260 controls the start motor 251 to be turned off, so that the toy presents a spinning motion in place. Players can connect the game component 400 to the shell 100 to play ring toss games or obstacle jumping games.

[0059] Understandably, the game component 400 includes a connector 410, an adapter 420 that can be plugged into the connector 410, and a fitting 430 that can be plugged into both the connector 410 and the adapter 420. The connector 410 is detachably fixed to the housing 100 via a recessed groove 101, and the connector 410 has multiple first insertion slots 411 for plugging into the adapter 420 or the fitting 430. The adapter 420 has two second insertion slots 421 on opposite sides for plugging into the fitting 430, allowing the fitting 430 to be laterally connected to the connector 410 via the adapter 420.

[0060] It should be noted that when playing the ring toss game, multiple pipe fittings 430 can be inserted into the multiple first insertion slots of the connector 410. Players can throw the rings at the rotating pipe fittings 430 to play the ring toss game. When playing the obstacle jump game, an adapter 420 can be inserted into the connector 410, and then pipe fittings 430 can be inserted into the adapter 420. Players can jump over the rotating pipe fittings 430 to play the obstacle jump game.

[0061] For clarity, certain features described in individual embodiments of the present invention may be used in combination in a single embodiment. Furthermore, various features of the present invention described in individual embodiments may also be used individually or in any suitable form in sub-combinations.
