Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a magic cube technical field, concretely is a kind of intelligent ball core and the pyramid magic cube using it. BACKGROUND
[0002] Pyramid magic cube is a tetrahedron heterotypic magic cube. It was invented by German scientist Professor Miffet in 1970. Pyramid magic cube has four outer corner blocks, four inner corner blocks and six edge blocks, and its color arrangement can be changed by rotation. The axis rotating block can rotate without changing the state, the six edge blocks can also rotate freely, and the four top blocks can rotate independently of other blocks. When the four top blocks rotate with the axis rotating block, a disordered state with only the color of the edge block changing is formed.
[0003] At present, the functions of conventional pyramid magic cubes are relatively single, and they cannot communicate with external electronic devices, lacking interest. In order to improve the interest of magic cube operation, some electronic magic cubes appear on the market, that is, sensors and other electronic components are arranged on the magic cube to detect the face rotation information of the magic cube. For example, Chinese patent CN215572668U discloses a "non-contact encoder orientation sensing intelligent magic cube ball shaft and magic cube", which includes an upper shell and a lower shell fitted at the bottom of the upper shell, six rotating shafts installed on the upper shell and the lower shell, and radial magnets installed at the bottom of the rotating shafts. An intelligent control assembly is installed between the upper shell and the lower shell, which includes a main control module and a battery module. The main control module includes an integrated FPC flexible board folded into a hexahedron, and an orientation sensing encoder chip is installed at the center of each face of the FPC flexible board. A main control SOC and a gyroscope chip are also installed on the FPC flexible board. Axle center positioning magnets are installed on the eight end corners of the hexahedral FPC flexible board. The ball shaft is installed with an integrated FPC flexible board folded into a hexahedron, uses a non-contact encoder chip, cooperates with axle center magnetic positioning, and is more accurate in positioning, greatly increases the controllability and adjustability of the intelligent magic cube, avoids mechanical contact type life decline, and effectively prolongs the service life to tens of millions of times. However, the integrated FPC flexible board folded into a hexahedron in the above structure has complex production process, high cost, less available space for axle center, and complex design and installation, which is easy to lose step and cannot meet the double sensor function required by the structure of pyramid magic cube, so it needs to be improved.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a smart ball core includes a housing 1, inside which a core frame 2 is provided, the core frame 2 having multiple mounting surfaces 21;
[0041] Sensing module 3, each of the mounting surfaces 21 is provided with a sensing module 3;
[0042] A power module 4 is mounted on the shaft core frame 2, and each of the sensing modules 3 is electrically connected to the power module 4;
[0043] A plurality of rotating shafts 5 are spaced apart on the housing 1. Each rotating shaft 5 corresponds one-to-one with a sensing module 3. One end of each rotating shaft 5 is connected to the corresponding sensing module 3, and the other end of the rotating shaft 5 extends out of the housing 1.
[0044] The sensing module 3 includes a brush disk 31 mounted on the shaft core frame 2. The brush disk 31 is provided with a brush plate 32 and two Hall sensors 33. The brush plate 32 and the Hall sensors 33 are electrically connected to the brush disk 31, and the end of the rotating shaft 5 is connected to the brush plate 32.
[0045] In this solution, the intelligent ball core includes a housing 1, a sensing module 3, a power module 4, and a rotating shaft 5. The rotating shaft 5 can rotate under the action of external force, and the power module 4 is used to supply power to the sensing module 3.
[0046] Because the internal installation space of the Pyramid Cube is small, when the Pyramid Cube is twisted, the outer corner piece 7 can drive the pivot 5 to rotate freely (this is the first set of rotating parts). In addition, the outer corner piece 7 and the inner corner piece 8 and edge piece 9 on the pivot 5 can also rotate at the same time (this is the second set of rotating parts). That is, at this time, the above two sets of parts are rotating on the pivot 5. Due to the small size, it is not possible to use the brush 32 to obtain the position information of the above two sets of parts at the same time; it is also not possible to set two sets of induction magnets 81 and Hall sensor 33 at the same time to obtain the position information of these two sets of rotatable parts, because there will be mutual interference.
[0047] Therefore, the sensing module 3 inside the intelligent ball core of this solution adopts a structure of rotating shaft 5 + metal brush 32 + brush disk 3131 (signal input / output board). Two additional Hall sensors 33 are added on this basis. The dual-sensor structure is achieved by using Hall positioning combined with brush 32 sensing. Each mounting surface 21 is equipped with the aforementioned dual sensors. When the rotating shaft 5 rotates synchronously with the outer corner block 7, it can drive the brush 32 to rotate synchronously, and the brush disk 31, acting as a signal input / output board, can acquire the rotation information of the outer corner block 7. When the inner corner block 8 and the edge block 9 rotate (the outer corner block 7 rotates simultaneously, and its position information is acquired as described above), the two Hall sensors... Hall sensors 33 can sense the sensing magnets 81 on different inner corner pieces 8. When the inner corner piece 8 / edge piece 9 rotates one face, the rotation angle is 120°. At this time, the sensing magnet 81 on the inner corner piece 8 corresponds to two Hall sensors 33. When rotating again, the inner corner piece 8 rotates 120 degrees. At this time, the sensing magnet 81 on the inner corner piece 8 corresponds to two other Hall sensors 33. Thus, the Hall sensors 33 can be used to obtain the specific position of the inner corner piece 8 / edge piece 9. The obtained position information of the outer corner piece 7 and inner corner piece 8 is relatively accurate, preventing missed moves. At the same time, it makes full use of the internal space of the pyramid cube and reduces the installation volume of the pyramid cube.
[0048] In addition, this solution introduces a core frame 2 inside the housing 1. The sensing module 3 and the power module 4 are installed at specific positions on the core frame, which facilitates the assembly of each module, saves the installation space of each module, improves the installation accuracy of each module inside the intelligent ball core, and enhances the structural stability. At the same time, the core frame 2 is different from the traditional solid structure. Its interior is hollow, which reduces the internal weight of the ball core.
[0049] In summary, this solution integrates the structural design and assembly of the electronic hardware of the smart ball core through the above structure, making the surface displacement sensing more accurate, reducing the step loss rate, simplifying the internal components of the ball core, and making its overall operation smoother and more reliable.
[0050] Furthermore, the mounting surface 21 is provided with a plurality of limiting posts 211, and the brush plate 31 is provided with a plurality of limiting grooves 311, with the limiting posts 211 inserted into the corresponding limiting grooves 311;
[0051] The mounting surface 21 is provided with a plurality of limiting blocks 212, and one side of the brush disk 31 abuts against the limiting block 212.
[0052] In this design, the brush disc 31 is stably mounted on the shaft core frame 2 through the cooperation of the limiting posts 211 and the limiting grooves 311. During actual installation, two, three, or more limiting posts 211 can be installed on each mounting surface 21 of the shaft core frame. Correspondingly, two, three, or more limiting grooves 311 are also provided on the brush disc 31. Each limiting post 211 is inserted into its corresponding limiting groove 311. The cooperation of multiple limiting posts 211 secures the brush disc 31, preventing it from easily shifting on the shaft core frame 2. The limiting grooves 311 can be located inside or on the side of each brush disc 31.
[0053] To further ensure the stability of the brush plate 31, a limiting block 212 can be added to the mounting surface 21. The limiting block 212 abuts against the side wall of the brush plate 31, so that the brush plate 31 is firmly clamped on the shaft frame and is not easy to move when subjected to external impact.
[0054] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the power module 4 includes a power supply 41, a conductive plate 42, and a bracket 43. The shaft core frame 2 has a connecting post 22 inside, and the connecting post 22 has a connecting hole 221 inside. The bottom end of the bracket 43 has an elongated positioning part 431, which is inserted into the connecting hole 221. The power supply 41 is mounted on the bracket 43, and the conductive plate 42 is mounted on the power supply 41. One end of the conductive plate 42 is electrically connected to the power supply 41, and the other end of the conductive plate 42 is electrically connected to one of the brush disks 31.
[0055] The power module 4 also includes an elastic conductive element 44. The bracket 43 has a receiving groove 432. The elastic conductive element 44 is disposed in the receiving groove 432. One end of the elastic conductive element 44 is electrically connected to the power supply 41, and the other end of the elastic conductive element 44 is electrically connected to another brush disk 31.
[0056] In this embodiment, the power supply 41 is fixed inside the shaft frame by the bracket 43. The positioning part 431 of the bracket 43 is locked in the connecting hole 221 of the connecting column 22 of the shaft frame to prevent the bracket 43 and the power supply 41 from shaking. In addition, multiple support columns are provided inside the shaft frame, and the support columns abut against the lower end of the bracket 43 to further improve the installation stability of the bracket 43.
[0057] In the first group of sensing modules 3, the brush disk 31 is electrically connected to the power supply 41 through the conductive sheet 42; the brush disk 31 of the second group of sensing modules 3 is electrically connected to the power supply 41 through the elastic conductive element 44; and the brush disks 31 of the other sensing modules 3 are electrically connected to the brush disks 31 of the first group of sensing modules 3 through the flexible circuit board 6.
[0058] Furthermore, such as Figure 8As shown, the conductive sheet 42 includes an integrally formed substrate 421, a first contact pin 422 and a second contact pin 423. The first contact pin 422 and the second contact pin 423 are spaced apart in the middle of the substrate 421. Both the first contact pin 422 and the second contact pin 423 are electrically connected to the power supply 41.
[0059] In this embodiment, the substrate 421 is provided with a first contact pin 422 and a second contact pin 423. The formed double contact conductive sheet 42 can improve the lifespan of the smart ball core and, on this basis, improve the power supply stability of the smart ball core, making the smart ball core more reliable.
[0060] Furthermore, the elastic conductive element 44 is a tower-shaped spring with a diameter gradually increasing from top to bottom. The tower-shaped spring has a lead 441, the end of which is electrically connected to the brush disk 31. Compared to traditional helical springs, the tower-shaped spring occupies less space after compression and is less prone to poor contact due to vibration. In this design, the tower-shaped spring is made of conductive metal and is electrically connected to the brush disk 31 of the second set of sensing modules 3 via the lead 441.
[0061] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, the brush plate 32 includes a base plate 321 and a first contact strip 322, a second contact strip 323 and a third contact strip 324 fixed on the base plate 321 and spaced apart. The base plate 321 is detachably connected to the rotating shaft 5. The first contact strip 322, the second contact strip 323 and the third contact strip 324 all extend obliquely to one side of the base plate 321 and are connected to the brush disk 31.
[0062] Thus, the first contact strip 322, the second contact strip 323, and the third contact strip 324 set on the base plate 321 form a special brush plate 32. The end of each contact strip makes point contact with the brush disk 31, that is, a three-contact design is adopted to sense the three directions of the pyramid cube's rotation (that is, the first set of rotating parts of the pyramid cube can be sensed when it rotates to any of the three faces). This reduces the probability of the function failing due to the failure of a certain contact point, improves the stability of the displacement sensing signal transmission, effectively reduces the step loss rate, and makes the smart ball core more reliable. In addition, the outer contour of the entire base plate 321 is approximately elliptical, and there are arc rotation guides on both sides of the base plate 321, which makes it less prone to errors, jamming, and poor contact.
[0063] Furthermore, the brush plate 31 is a rigid-flex PCB. In this embodiment, the circuit board uses a rigid-flex PCB, which reduces the risk of product defects caused by soldering errors and improves the overall stability of the smart ball core.
[0064] Furthermore, a bushing 11 is provided on the housing 1, and the bushing 11 is fitted onto the outer wall of the rotating shaft 5. By directly designing the bushing 11 structure onto the housing 1 of the smart ball core, the strength during rotation is increased, the shaking of the rotating shaft 5 is reduced, and the stability of the displacement sensing signal is further ensured.
[0065] Furthermore, the power source 41 is a battery.
[0066] In particular, such as Figures 9 to 11 As shown, this utility model also proposes a pyramid cube using the intelligent ball core described in any of the above claims. The pyramid cube further includes an outer corner piece 7, an inner corner piece 8, and an edge piece 9. The outer corner piece 7 is connected to the top of the rotating shaft 5. The inner corner piece 8 is fitted onto the rotating shaft 5. The edge piece 9 is engaged between two adjacent inner corner pieces 8. The inner corner pieces 8 and the edge piece 9 are rotatably disposed on the outside of the housing 1. An induction magnet 81 is provided on the inner corner piece 8. The orthographic projection of the inner corner piece 8 is triangular. The induction magnet 81 is located on the line connecting any vertex of the inner corner piece 8 to its center, such that:
[0067] When the outer corner block 7 is rotated, the rotating shaft 5 and the brush 32 rotate synchronously, and the brush 32 is used to obtain the rotation position of the outer corner block 7; when the inner corner block 8 is rotated, the edge block 9 rotates synchronously with it, and the Hall sensor 33 obtains the rotation position of the inner corner block 8 by sensing the sensing magnet 81.
[0068] The pyramid cube includes any of the aforementioned smart cores, and therefore has the same beneficial effects as the aforementioned smart cores, which will not be elaborated on here.
[0069] In practical use, rotating the outer corner piece 7 of the pyramid cube can drive the rotating shaft 5 to rotate, thereby causing the brush 32 to rotate and generate a displacement sensing signal, which is received by the brush disk 31. The two sensing magnets 81 and the two Hall sensors 33 on the smart ball core can cooperate to identify three different angles. Rotating the inner corner piece 8 of the pyramid cube can drive the positioning sensing magnet 81 of the inner corner piece 8 to rotate, so that the Hall sensor 33 can obtain the rotation signal and generate a signal change. The two sets of brushes 32 and Hall sensors 33 control the sensing signals of two different rotating parts respectively, without affecting each other.
[0070] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
