[0002] In the fields of entertainment and research, eye-hand-speed ball-grabbing machines or stick-grabbing machines are used to train and test users' hand-eye coordination, reaction, and other abilities. These devices mainly release control sticks or small balls, requiring users to complete grabbing or striking actions within a certain period of time to achieve the purpose of training and testing.

[0003] While ball-grabbing or stick-grabbing machines on the market are low in cost, they also have some problems. For example, the target objects, such as small balls or sticks, need to be manually picked up and put back on the machine after they fall, which makes them inconvenient to use. For instance, it is difficult for some elderly people and children to pick up and retrieve them. There is also the problem of them being easily lost if not retrieved in time. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a ball-hitting machine to solve the problem that when the target object falls into the current ball-catching or stick-catching machine, it needs to be manually picked up and reinstalled on the machine, which leads to inconvenience in recycling and loss of the target object due to untimely recycling.

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a ball-hitting machine, including a main unit housing, with a plurality of ball-hitting main units disposed within the inner cavity of the main unit housing. Each ball-hitting main unit includes a DC rotary motor assembly, which is fixedly connected to the main shaft of the ball-hitting machine. The main shaft is also fixedly connected to a ball release assembly, which is connected to a ball portion that is always connected to the ball release assembly. The DC rotary motor assembly is used to restore the ball release assembly from a released state to a ready-to-release state.

[0006] The ball release assembly is fixedly connected to a spring assembly, which is used to drive the ball release assembly to rotate.

[0007] Furthermore, the DC rotary motor assembly includes a DC motor, and a gear assembly is fixedly connected to the motor shaft of the DC motor. The gear assembly includes a first gear section and a second gear section, which are meshed together. The side of the first gear section away from the second gear section is fixedly connected to the motor shaft of the DC rotary motor assembly.

[0008] The main shaft of the ball-hitting machine is fixedly connected to the side of the second gear section away from the first gear section.

[0009] The ball release assembly has a push spring on one side near the DC rotary motor assembly, and the other side of the push spring abuts against the main housing. The ball machine spindle is not connected to the main housing. The push spring is used to push the ball release assembly away from the assembly of the first gear and the DC motor.

[0010] The end of the ball-hitting machine spindle furthest from the second gear unit abuts against the thrust assembly.

[0011] Furthermore, the thrust assembly includes a thrust spring, one end of which abuts against the main shaft of the ball striking machine; the other end of the thrust spring abuts against the thrust push rod, and the other end of the thrust push rod is connected to the thrust motor.

[0012] Furthermore, the thrust spring is housed in the limiting assembly, which is a hollow structure used to limit the thrust spring.

[0013] Furthermore, the gear assembly is a ratchet structure.

[0014] Furthermore, the ball release assembly includes a rotating disk, which is fixedly connected to the main shaft of the ball-hitting machine.

[0015] Furthermore, the spring assembly is a spiral spring structure, with the center of the spring assembly fixedly connected to the main shaft of the ball-hitting machine, and the outermost end of the spring assembly fixedly connected to the main body housing.

[0016] Furthermore, the rotating disk is connected to the ball part via a swing rod, and the axis of the swing rod is parallel to the plane where the rotating disk is located.

[0017] Furthermore, the rotating disk is connected to the ball part via a ball connecting line, which is connected to the side of the rotating disk. The side of the rotating disk is also provided with a cable receiving groove for storing the ball connecting line.

[0018] Furthermore, an interactive component is provided on the main unit casing, and a support component is also connected to the main unit casing. A base component is also connected to the end of the support component away from the main unit casing. A controller is also provided inside the main unit casing, which is used to control the ball machine and process data.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this ball-hitting machine are as follows: A ball release assembly is designed on the main shaft of the machine, and a ball is always connected to this assembly. Simultaneously, a gear assembly is installed on the main shaft, connected to a DC rotary motor. The rotation of the DC rotary motor allows the ball release assembly to return to the ready-to-release state after entering the release state.

[0020] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the ball-striking machine.

[0021] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a ball-hitting machine. Detailed Implementation

[0022] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this utility model, the following description is in conjunction with the appendix. Figures 1 to 2 The present invention provides a more detailed description of a ball-hitting machine.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown in the figure, a ball-hitting machine according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a main body housing 100, and a plurality of ball-hitting main bodies are disposed in the inner cavity of the main body housing 100, arranged side by side within the main body housing 100. Each ball-hitting main body includes a DC rotary motor assembly, which is fixedly connected to the main shaft 230 of the ball-hitting machine. The main shaft 230 is also fixedly connected to a ball release assembly, which is connected to a ball part 241, which is always connected to the ball release assembly. The DC rotary motor assembly is used to restore the ball release assembly from a released state to a ready-to-release state. A spring assembly 242 is fixedly connected to the ball release assembly, which is used to drive the ball release assembly to rotate.

[0024] Since the DC motor assembly is fixedly connected to the main shaft 230 of the ball striking machine, the main shaft 230 of the ball striking machine will rotate when the ball is struck. If the motor in the DC motor assembly is directly connected to the main shaft 230 of the ball striking machine, it will cause damage to the motor, thereby reducing the service life of the motor.

[0025] To address this issue, the DC rotary motor assembly includes a DC motor 210. A gear assembly 220 is fixedly connected to the motor shaft of the DC motor 210. The gear assembly 220 includes a first gear section 221 and a second gear section 222. The first gear section 221 and the second gear section 222 are meshed together. The side of the first gear section 221 away from the second gear section 222 is fixedly connected to the motor shaft of the DC rotary motor assembly. The side of the second gear section 222 away from the first gear section 221 is fixedly connected to the main shaft 230 of the ball-hitting machine. The DC motor 210 is fixedly connected to the main housing 100.

[0026] In this invention, a push spring 250 abuts against the side of the ball release assembly near the DC rotary motor assembly, and the other side of the push spring 250 abuts against the main housing 100. The ball-hitting machine main shaft 230 is not connected to the main housing 100. The push spring 250 is used to push the ball release assembly away from the assembly of the first gear 221 and the DC motor 210. The end of the ball-hitting machine main shaft 230 away from the second gear 222 abuts against the thrust assembly 260. The thrust assembly 260 includes a thrust spring 261, one end of which abuts against the ball-hitting machine main shaft 230; the other end of the thrust spring 261 abuts against a thrust rod 262, and the other end of the thrust rod 262 is connected to the thrust motor. The ball release assembly includes a rotating disk 243, which is fixedly connected to the ball-hitting machine main shaft 230.

[0027] In use, when the ball release assembly is in the ready-to-release state, the push rod 262 pushes the push spring 261, which abuts against the main shaft 230 of the ball-hitting machine, and is in a compressed state. The pressure of the push spring 261 on the main shaft 230 of the ball-hitting machine causes the push spring 250 to also be in a compressed state. Therefore, the first gear 221 and the second gear 222 in the gear assembly 220 are in a meshing state. As the DC motor 210 rotates, the rotation of the gear assembly 220 drives the rotation of the main shaft 230 of the ball-hitting machine, thereby causing the rotating disk 243 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the spring assembly 242 is in a tightened state. When the DC motor 210 stops rotating, the spring assembly 242, the push spring 250, and the push spring 261 are all in a tightened state.

[0028] After the release signal is issued, the ball release assembly enters the release state. First, the push rod 262 moves away from the main shaft 230 of the ball-hitting machine, causing the pressure of the push spring 261 to gradually decrease. During this process, the main shaft 230 of the ball-hitting machine gradually moves away from the DC motor 210 due to the reduced pressure of the push spring 261 and the push of the push spring 250. Since the second gear 222 is fixedly connected to the main shaft 230 of the ball-hitting machine, the second gear 222 separates from the first gear 221. When the second gear 222 is completely separated from the first gear 221, the second gear 222 is no longer restricted by the combination of the first gear 221 and the DC motor 210, and the spring assembly 242 acts on the rotating disk 243, causing the rotating disk 243 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating disk 243 drives the main shaft 230 of the ball-hitting machine and the second gear 222 to rotate. The rotating disk 243 releases the ball part 241, causing the ball part 241 to move for the user to strike.

[0029] After the rotating disk 243 releases the ball section 241, it is necessary to return the rotating disk 243 and the ball section 241 to the ready-to-release state. At this time, the push rod 262 needs to move towards the main shaft 230 of the striking machine and compress the push spring section 261, thereby pushing the main shaft 230 of the striking machine and the second gear section 222 towards the first gear section 221. Subsequently, the push spring 250 will also be in a compressed state. After the second gear section 222 and the first gear section 221 are fully engaged, the DC motor 210 rotates, driving the main shaft 230 of the striking machine to rotate, thereby compressing the spring assembly 242.

[0030] Understandably, the thrust spring portion 261 is housed within the limiting assembly 270, which is a hollow structure used to limit the thrust spring portion 261. In this design, the portions of the thrust spring portion 261, the ball-hitting machine spindle 230, and the thrust push rod 262 closest to the thrust spring portion 261 are all located within the limiting assembly 270. This ensures that during use, the ends of the ball-hitting machine spindle 230 and the thrust push rod 262 that are close to each other are always collinear with the thrust spring portion 261, preventing misalignment that could lead to malfunctions.

[0031] In some embodiments, in order to further reduce the impact of the rotation of the ball machine spindle 230 on the DC motor 210, the gear assembly 220 uses a ratchet structure, so that the ball machine spindle 230 will only drive the first gear 221 to rotate when it rotates in one direction, thereby further reducing the impact of the rotation of the ball machine spindle 230 on the DC motor 210.

[0032] In some embodiments, the spring assembly 242 is a spiral spring structure, which allows the spring assembly 242 to tighten and store force during rotation. The center of the spring assembly 242 is fixedly connected to the main shaft 230 of the ball striking machine, and the end of the spring assembly 242 near the edge of the rotating disk 243 is fixedly connected to the main housing 100.

[0033] It should be noted that the rotating disk 243 is connected to the ball section 241 via a swing rod 244, and the axis of the swing rod 244 is parallel to the plane of the rotating disk 243. In this case, after the rotating disk 243 releases the ball section 241, the ball section 241 rotates around the main shaft 230 of the ball striking machine. A slot is provided on the main housing 100 for the movement of the swing rod 244.

[0034] In some embodiments, the rotating disk 243 is connected to the ball part 241 via a ball connecting line. The ball connecting line is connected to the side of the rotating disk 243, and the side of the rotating disk 243 is also provided with a cable receiving groove for storing the ball connecting line. In this method, after the rotating disk 243 releases the ball part 241, the ball will fall down under the action of gravity. When the DC motor 210 subsequently drives the rotating disk 243 back to the ready-to-release state, the ball connecting part 241 will gradually approach the rotating disk 243 as the ball connecting line winds around the cable receiving groove, thus returning to the ready-to-release state.

[0035] Whether the ball section 241 is connected to the rotating disk 243 via a rigid swing rod 244 or a flexible ball connecting line, it can ensure that after use, the ball section 241 returns to the ready-to-release state without requiring manual retrieval by the user, so that it can be used for the next exercise and test.

[0036] In this invention, the outer shells of several small ball parts 241 can be of different colors.

[0037] Understandably, the main unit casing 100 is equipped with an interactive component 110, and the main unit casing 100 is also connected to a support component 300. A base component 400 is connected to the end of the support component 300 furthest from the main unit casing 100. A controller is also installed inside the main unit casing 100, which controls the ball-hitting machine and processes data. The interactive component can display the color of the ball to be hit or a prompt. Specifically, after the interactive component displays the Chinese character corresponding to the color, all balls are released, and the player quickly hits the ball of the corresponding color. Alternatively, if the color of the text displayed by the interactive component does not match the text itself, all balls are released, and the player needs to hit the corresponding ball as quickly as possible based on the color of the text displayed by the interactive component. The controller, on the other hand, needs to process the information to be displayed and the information obtained by detecting the user's usage.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
