Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of grab toys, in particular to a lateral driving mechanism of a grab toy machine, a displacement transmission device of the grab toy machine and the grab toy machine. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the modern entertainment industry, grab toy machines, especially doll machines, as a kind of popular amusement equipment, have penetrated into people's daily life. This kind of equipment usually drives the grabber (also commonly known as the crown block) to move in the front-back and left-right directions through a lateral driving mechanism, until it is accurately positioned above the target object, and then performs a lowering operation to attempt to grab the target object.
[0003] The core working mechanism of the grab toy machine lies in its accurate positioning ability and stable grabbing performance. In order to achieve this goal, the translational motion of the grabber is crucial. The lateral driving mechanism of the grab toy machine is often driven by a motor, which is equipped with a precise micro switch. As a key sensor component, the micro switch is responsible for detecting the real-time position of the grabber, and when the grabber reaches the preset end position or stops moving due to any obstruction, it sends a signal to the control system, thereby controlling the motor to stop running in time.
[0004] However, in actual use, the micro switch may fail for various reasons. For example, long-term operation and wear and tear can cause the sensitivity of the micro switch to decrease, or even completely fail. As a result, when the grabber moves laterally to the end position or stops moving due to obstruction, if the micro switch fails to send a stop signal in time, the motor will continue to run. In this case, the internal transmission gears of the lateral driving mechanism will bear excessive load and unnecessary wear and tear. Long-term operation in this abnormal state, the transmission gears are likely to be damaged, such as tooth surface wear, breakage, etc. At the same time, due to the continuous operation of the motor and the abnormal state of the transmission system, abnormal noise may also be produced, affecting the normal operation of the doll machine and the user experience.

[0048] The utility model provides a kind of transverse drive mechanism of grab machine, for driving grab toy machine, such as the lateral movement of the clamping mechanism of grab doll machine.
[0049] In the embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The transverse drive mechanism 200 of the grab machine includes a motor 210, a transmission wheel set 220, and a clutch wheel set 230. The clutch wheel set 230 includes a walking gear 231, a first transmission gear 234, and a friction connecting piece 237 arranged coaxially.
[0050] The walking gear 231 has a first end face 232 adjacent to the first transmission gear 234, and the first transmission gear 234 has a second end face 235 adjacent to the walking gear 231. One of the first end face 232 and the second end face 235 is provided with a receiving groove 233, and the other is provided with an embedded protrusion 236 embedded in the receiving groove 233.
[0051] The friction connecting piece 237 includes an axial segment 2371 extending along the axial direction of the first transmission gear 234. The axial segment 2371 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the embedded protrusion 236 and clamped between the outer peripheral wall of the embedded protrusion 236 and the peripheral side wall of the receiving groove 233, so as to frictionally connect the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 in a clutching manner.
[0052] The motor 210 is drivingly connected to the first transmission gear 234 through the transmission wheel set 220 and drives the walking gear 231 to rotate synchronously through the axial segment 2371. When the walking gear 231 stops rotating, the first transmission gear 234 is driven to rotate relative to the walking gear 231.
[0053] In the present embodiment, the transverse drive mechanism 200 is used to drive the clamping mechanism 300 to move reciprocally in the transverse direction. The transmission wheel set 220 can be a gear train structure composed of multiple gears or a gear train structure composed of a worm and a gear, as long as it can achieve the driving connection between the motor 210 and the first transmission gear 234. The specific structure of the transmission wheel set 220 is not limited herein.
[0054] The specific size parameters of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 can be designed according to actual requirements, and are not specifically limited here. The walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 are coaxially arranged, so as to ensure the concentricity of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234. A central shaft 238 can be provided through the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234, and the central shaft 238 is fixedly connected with the walking gear 231, and the first transmission gear 234 is rotatably sleeved outside the central shaft 238, so as to realize the linkage of the first transmission gear 234 with the walking gear 231 through the axial section 2371, or to enable the first transmission gear 234 to rotate relative to the walking gear 231. Of course, the central shafts of the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231 can also be provided with a fixed shaft respectively, so that the first transmission gear can rotate relative to the fixed shaft provided therewith, so as to realize the friction clutching with the walking gear 231.
[0055] One of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 is provided with a containing groove 233, and the other is provided with an embedding protrusion 236 embedded in the containing groove 233, so the size of the containing groove 233 and the embedding protrusion 236 should be designed according to the size of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234. In order to increase the friction contact area, the cross-sectional size of the embedding protrusion 236 should be increased as much as possible, and preferably, the containing groove 233 is arranged on the walking gear 231, and the embedding protrusion 236 is arranged on the first transmission gear 234. Since the motor 210 needs to be decelerated, the size of the walking gear 231 is usually larger than that of the first transmission gear 234, so arranging the containing groove 233 on the walking gear 231 is more conducive to increasing the cross-sectional size of the containing groove 233 and the embedding protrusion 236, thereby increasing the friction contact area among the containing groove 233, the embedding protrusion 236 and the axial section 2371.
[0056] It should be noted that the first transmission gear 234 in the clutch wheel set 230 of the transverse driving mechanism 200 and the walking gear 231 are frictionally connected through the axial section 2371 of the friction connecting piece 237, which means that the first transmission gear 234, the walking gear 231 and the friction connecting piece 237 constitute a clutch-like structure as a whole. In this way, the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231 can directly realize the function of the friction clutch through friction, without the need to additionally set up a gear train to realize the friction clutch linkage of the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231, thereby simplifying the number of transmission gears of the transverse driving mechanism 200, making the structure of the entire transverse driving mechanism 200 more compact and occupying a smaller volume. In practice, the walking gear 231 is engaged with the rack rail 110 on the object grabbing toy machine. The friction connecting piece 237 can be made of elastic materials such as rubber and silica gel, or composite fiber materials, paper-based materials, etc., as long as it can realize the friction clutch of the first transmission gear and the walking gear 231, and the material of the friction connecting piece 237 is not specifically limited here.
[0057] Therefore, in normal operation (when the walking gear 231 is not subjected to external resistance), the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231 are fixed by the embedded protrusion 236, the accommodating groove 233 and the axial segment 2371 to realize synchronous transmission of torque. At this time, the motor 210 drives the transmission wheel set 220 to rotate the first transmission gear 234, and the walking gear 231 is synchronously rotated to realize the reciprocating movement of the walking gear 231 on the rack rail 110, and finally drive the clamping mechanism 300 to reciprocate in the extension direction of the rack rail 110. When the walking gear 231 is subjected to external resistance, for example, the walking gear 231 moves to the end of the rack rail 110, or is stuck and stops rotating, and the motor 210 continues to operate due to the malfunction of the micro switch, so that the transmission force between the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 is overloaded, which is greater than the friction force between the walking gear 231, the first transmission gear 234 and the friction connecting piece 237. At this time, the first transmission gear 234 will slip relative to the axial segment 2371, and the first transmission gear 234 will rotate relative to the walking gear 231, so that the transmission of force between the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231 is interrupted. At this time, the motor 210 only drives the transmission wheel set 220 to drive the first transmission gear 234 to idle, so that the motor 210 can avoid continuous operation to cause transmission wear or abnormal sound between the walking gear 231 and the rack rail 110, the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231, and the first transmission gear 234 and the transmission wheel set 220. After the external resistance disappears, the motor 210 operates, and the direction of the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231 is combined by the axial segment 2371 of the friction connecting piece 237 to realize the linkage between the motor 210, the transmission wheel set 220, the first transmission gear 234, the walking gear 231 and the rack rail 110.
[0058] The displacement transmission device 10 of the object grabbing machine, by making the transverse driving mechanism 200 include the clutch wheel set 230, in normal operation (the walking gear 231 is not subjected to external resistance), the first transmission gear 234 of the clutch wheel set 230 and the walking gear 231 are frictionally engaged and fixed through the axial section 2371 of the friction connecting piece 237, synchronous transmission of torque can be realized, then the motor 210 drives the transmission wheel set 220 to drive the first transmission gear 234 to rotate, the linkage walking gear 231 rotates synchronously, so that the walking gear 231 realizes reciprocating movement on the rack rail 110, to drive the clamping mechanism 300 to move transversely and reciprocally. When the walking gear 231 is subjected to external resistance, for example, the walking gear 231 moves to the end of the rack rail 110, or is stuck and stops rotating, and the motor 210 continues to operate due to the micro switch failure, then the first transmission gear 234 can rotate relative to the walking gear 231, so that the transmission of force between the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231 is interrupted, at this time the motor 210 only drives the transmission wheel set 220 to drive the first transmission gear 234 to idle, in this way, it can avoid the continuous operation of the motor 210 to cause transmission wear or abnormal sound between the walking gear 231 and the rack rail 110, the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231, and the first transmission gear 234 and the transmission wheel set 220.
[0059] In addition, by making the friction connecting piece 237 include the axial section 2371 extending along the axial direction of the first transmission gear 234, the end faces of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 are provided with the accommodation groove 233 and the embedding protrusion 236 embedded with each other, and the axial section 2371 is clamped between the circumferential side wall of the accommodation groove 233 and the outer circumferential wall of the embedding protrusion 236. The frictional contact area of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 in the circumferential direction is effectively increased, so that the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 will not be loosened or excessively displaced in the axial direction, compared with the clutching mode of clamping friction plates between the end faces of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234, so that the axial section 2371 is fully utilized to realize the automatic clutching of the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231, without the need for additional spring to press the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231, therefore, only the walking gear 231, the first transmission gear 234 and the axial section 2371 can realize the automatic clutching of the transverse driving mechanism 200, greatly reducing the number of parts, making the structure of the transverse driving mechanism 200 more simple and compact, occupying small space, and being more conducive to realizing the miniaturization of the equipment.
[0060] In an embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the clutch wheel set 230 further comprises a central shaft 238, the central shaft 238 is provided through and fixedly connected with the walking gear 231, and the first transmission gear 234 is rotatably sleeved on the periphery of the central shaft 238, so that the first transmission gear 234 can rotate around the central shaft 238 relative to the walking gear 231 when the walking gear 231 stops rotating.
[0061] In the embodiment, by providing the central shaft 238 through the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234, the coaxial degree of the first transmission gear 234 relative to the walking gear 231 can be ensured when the first transmission gear 234 rotates, and the gear jamming caused by the misalignment of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 relying on the cooperation of the embedding protrusion 236 and the accommodating groove 233 can be avoided. Specifically, the two ends of the central shaft 238 respectively extend out of the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231 and are rotatably connected with the mounting shell 240. In this way, when the walking gear 231 is not subjected to external resistance, the walking gear 231, the first transmission gear 234 and the axial section 2371 are tightly combined by frictional force, and when the transmission wheel set 220 drives the first transmission gear 234 to rotate, the walking gear 231 can be driven to rotate synchronously. When the walking gear 231 is subjected to external resistance, the motor 210 drives the transmission wheel set 220 to drive the first transmission gear 234 to idle relative to the walking gear 231 around the central shaft 238, so as to avoid damaging the walking gear 231 and causing abnormal noise.
[0062] In an embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The frictional connecting piece 237 further comprises a radial section 2372 connected with the axial section 2371 and extending in the radial direction of the axial section 2371, the radial section 2372 is clamped between the first end face 232 and the second end face 235, and covers the slot opening of the accommodating groove 233.
[0063] In the embodiment, by providing that the frictional connecting piece 237 further comprises the radial section 2372, and covering the slot opening of the accommodating groove 233 by the radial section 2372, the lubricating oil on the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231 can be prevented from entering the accommodating groove 233, and the frictional combination between the axial section 2371 and the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231 can be affected. In addition, the radial section 2372 clamped between the end faces of the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231 can also increase the frictional area between the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231, so as to further improve the frictional combination tightness of the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231.
[0064] In an embodiment, the frictional connecting piece 237 is made of an elastic material. Specifically, the frictional connecting piece 237 can be made of an elastic material such as rubber, silica gel, etc. By making the frictional connecting piece 237 of an elastic material, the precision requirement for the axial section 2371 of the frictional connecting piece 237 is lower than that of a rigid material. Since the lateral walking speed of the object grabbing machine is relatively slow, the frictional connecting piece 237 made of an elastic material can provide sufficient frictional binding force for the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231, so that the first transmission gear 234 can drive the walking gear 231 to rotate through the axial section 2371. When the walking gear 231 is stopped by external resistance, the frictional connecting piece 237 made of an elastic material is also more convenient to realize the idling of the first transmission gear 234 relative to the walking gear 231.
[0065] In an embodiment, referring again to Figures 1 to 4 , the transmission wheel set 220 includes a first worm 221 in transmission connection with the motor 210, and the first worm 221 is in meshing connection with the first transmission gear 234 to transmission connect the motor 210 and the first transmission gear 234.
[0066] In the embodiment, the motor 210 is in transmission connection with the first worm 221, so that the output shaft of the motor 210 is directly fixedly connected with the first worm 221, and the first worm 221 is directly driven to rotate by the motor 210; or the output shaft of the motor 210 is connected with the first worm 221 through a transmission gear set to realize functions such as driving steering and speed reduction, and the transmission connection mode of the motor 210 and the first worm 221 is not limited herein. By setting the first worm 221 in meshing connection with the first transmission gear 234, compared with the transmission connection with the first transmission gear 234 through a gear train, the number of parts can be reduced, the structure of the lateral driving mechanism 200 is more simple and compact, the occupied space is small, and it is more conducive to realizing the miniaturization of the equipment.
[0067] Further, as shown in Figures 1 to 3 , the transmission wheel set 220 further includes a second worm 222 and a second transmission gear 223, the second worm 222 is coaxially fixedly connected with the output shaft of the motor 210 and extends along the axial direction of the walking gear 231; the second transmission gear 223 is coaxially fixedly connected with the first worm 221, and the second worm 222 is in meshing connection with the second transmission gear 223 to drive the second worm 222 to drive the second transmission gear 223 to drive the first worm 221 to rotate.
[0068] In the embodiment, the second worm 222 is coaxially fixedly connected with the output shaft of the motor 210, the second transmission gear 223 is coaxially fixedly connected with the first worm 221, in this way, the second worm 222 and the first transmission gear 234 are arranged side by side in the longitudinal direction and are located on the same side of the second transmission gear 223 and the first worm 221, so that the second worm 222, the second transmission gear 223, the first worm 221 and the first transmission gear 234 are arranged in a rectangular shape as a whole, so that the overall structure is extremely compact, the most simplified transmission member is adopted to realize the transmission connection between the motor 210 and the first transmission gear 234, the cost is reduced, and the occupied space is minimized, which is beneficial to realize the miniaturization of the entire transverse driving mechanism 200.
[0069] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the transverse driving mechanism 200 of the object grabbing machine further comprises a mounting shell 240, the mounting shell 240 has limiting walls 241 opposite in the axial direction of the walking gear 231, the clutch wheel set 230 is mounted in the mounting shell 240 and located between the two limiting walls 241, and the sum of the distances between the two end faces of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 which are arranged opposite to each other and the limiting walls 241 adjacent thereto is less than the extension length of the axial section 2371 in the axial direction.
[0070] In the embodiment, the mounting shell 240 is used for mounting the clutch wheel set 230. Of course, the transmission gears, the motor 210 and other structures can be integrally mounted in the mounting shell 240 to facilitate the modular assembly of the transverse driving mechanism 200. The sum of the distances between the two end faces of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 which are arranged opposite to each other and the limiting walls 241 adjacent thereto is less than the extension length of the axial section 2371 in the axial direction, in this way, the axial displacement of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 can be limited by the two limiting walls 241 on the mounting shell 240, and the first transmission gear 234 is prevented from moving axially relative to the walking gear 231 to be disengaged from the axial section 2371 and causing the friction linkage to fail. Generally, the distances between the two end faces of the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 which are arranged opposite to each other and the limiting walls 241 adjacent thereto are set to be small, for example, less than 0.5 mm.
[0071] The utility model further provides a displacement transmission device 10 of object grabbing machine, like Figures 5 to 11As shown, the displacement transmission device 10 of the grabber includes a mounting frame 100 and a lateral driving mechanism 200 of the grabber, the specific structure of which is referred to the above-mentioned embodiments, the mounting frame 100 is provided with a laterally extending rack track 110, the walking gear 231 of the lateral driving mechanism 200 is engaged with the rack track 110, so as to drive the first transmission gear 234 to reciprocatingly move the walking gear 231 along the rack track 110 through the motor 210 of the lateral driving mechanism 200 driving the transmission wheel set 220; since the displacement transmission device 10 of the grabber adopts all the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be repeated here.
[0072] In the present embodiment, the displacement transmission device 10 of the grabber is used in a grabber toy machine, such as a grabber doll machine. The mounting frame 100 is usually mounted on the top of the box body of the grabber toy machine, and the mounting frame 100 is used to provide installation and support for the lateral driving mechanism 200, the clamping mechanism 300 and the like. The specific structure of the mounting frame 100 can be selected and designed according to actual needs, which is not limited here. The rack track 110 on the mounting frame 100 can be provided as one or multiple. Taking the position of the displacement transmission device 10 of the grabber when it is installed in the grabber toy machine for use as a reference, the rack track 110 extends laterally, which can specifically extend in the front-rear direction, or extend in the left-right direction, or extend obliquely at an angle to the front-rear and left-right directions, which can be designed according to actual needs, and the specific lateral extension direction of the rack track 110 is not limited here.
[0073] The walking gear 231 of the lateral driving mechanism 200 is engaged with the rack rail 110. In normal operation (when the walking gear 231 is not subjected to external resistance), the motor 210 of the lateral driving mechanism 200 drives the transmission wheel set 220 to rotate the first transmission gear 234, and the walking gear 231 is synchronously rotated to realize the reciprocating movement of the walking gear 231 on the rack rail 110. When the walking gear 231 is subjected to external resistance, for example, the walking gear 231 moves to the end of the rack rail 110 or is stuck and stops rotating, and the motor 210 continues to operate due to the failure of the micro switch, the transmission force between the walking gear 231 and the first transmission gear 234 is overloaded, which is greater than the friction force between the walking gear 231, the first transmission gear 234 and the friction connecting piece 237. At this time, the first transmission gear 234 will slip relative to the axial section 2371, and the first transmission gear 234 will rotate relative to the walking gear 231, so that the transmission of force between the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231 is interrupted. At this time, the motor 210 only drives the transmission wheel set 220 to drive the first transmission gear 234 to idle. In this way, the continuous operation of the motor 210 can be avoided, and the transmission wear or abnormal sound between the walking gear 231 and the rack rail 110, the first transmission gear 234 and the walking gear 231, and the first transmission gear 234 and the transmission wheel set 220 can be avoided.
[0074] In an embodiment, referring to Figures 5 to 10 , the mounting frame 100 includes a fixed frame 120 and a moving frame 130, the moving frame 130 is movably installed on the fixed frame 120 along a first direction; the rack rail 110 includes a first rack 111 extending along the first direction and a second rack 112 extending along a second direction; the first rack 111 is arranged on the fixed frame 120, and the second rack 112 is arranged on the moving frame 130, and the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction;

The walking gear 231 of one group of the lateral driving mechanism 200 is engaged with the first rack 111, and the walking gear 231 of the other group of the lateral driving mechanism 200 is engaged with the second rack 112, so that the group of the lateral driving mechanism 200 can drive the clamping mechanism 300 to reciprocate along the second direction relative to the moving frame 130.

It can be understood that the clamping mechanism 300 is installed on the moving frame 130, and the clamping mechanism 300 can move along the first direction relative to the fixing frame 120, and the clamping mechanism 300 itself can move along the second direction in the moving frame 130, thereby realizing the accurate movement of the clamping mechanism 300 in the front-back direction and the left-right direction.
[0077] The number of the first rack 111 and the second rack 112 can be one or two. When the first rack 111 and the second rack 112 are two, the two first racks 111 are arranged opposite to each other on the fixing frame 120, and the two second racks 112 are arranged opposite to each other on the moving frame 130. The transverse driving mechanism 200 engaged with the first rack 111 and the second rack 112 has the clutch wheel set 230, so that when the clamping mechanism 300 moves in the front-back direction and the left-right direction, the force transmission can be automatically interrupted, thereby avoiding the gear damage and abnormal sound during the movement of the clamping mechanism 300 in the front-back direction and the left-right direction.
[0078] In an embodiment, as shown in Figures 5 to 8 , the fixing frame 120 includes a slide rail 121 opposite to and extending in the same direction as the first rack 111.

In this way, one side of the moving frame 130 is engaged with the first rack 111 through the walking gear 231, and the other side is slidably connected with the fixing frame 120. Compared with the way that the two sides of the moving frame 130 are engaged with the first rack 111 through the walking gear 231, the cost can be reduced, and the equipment failure rate can be reduced. The specific structure of the slide rail 121 of the fixing frame 120 can be many, and the sliding fitting mode of the moving frame 130 and the slide rail 121 can also be many, as long as the sliding fitting of the two can be realized, and the specific structure is not limited here.

And the movable seat 310 can also drive the clamping mechanism 300 to move along the second direction in the moving frame 130, thereby realizing the accurate reciprocating movement of the clamping mechanism 300 forward and backward, left and right. The movable seat 310 and the moving frame 130 can be connected by sliding rails 121, sliding grooves and the like, or only the sliding rails 121 can be arranged in the moving frame 130, so that the bottom surface of the entire movable seat 310 can slide relative to the sliding rails 121 to realize the sliding connection of the movable seat 310 and the moving frame 130.
