[0023] Please refer to the following at the same time Figure 1-5This embodiment provides a multifunctional driving device for a levitation ball toy, including a housing 1 and a blowing device installed inside the housing 1. The blowing device includes a motor 2 and fan blades 3 and a drive gear set 4 respectively fixed to the two output shafts of the motor 2. When in use, if the motor 2 is started, it will simultaneously drive the fan blades 3 and the drive gear set 4 to rotate. The fan blades 3 blow air to levitate the ball, and the drive gear set 4 cooperates with other structural components of the toy (such as swinging components, moving components, rotating components, etc.) to achieve corresponding functional actions, making the driving device more versatile and improving the toy's playability and fun.

[0024] It is understood that the housing 1 has a first cavity 10 and a second cavity 20. In this embodiment, the second cavity 20 includes a first chamber 201 and a second chamber 202 that are arranged in an overlapping manner. The first cavity 10 is connected to a fan blade 3 and is connected to the outside through an air inlet 101 and an air outlet 102. The first chamber 201 is equipped with a motor 2 and part of the drive gear set 4, and the second chamber 202 is equipped with another part of the drive gear set 4.

[0025] It should be noted that the housing 1 has a heat dissipation hole 2011 on the outer wall corresponding to the first chamber 201. The heat dissipation hole 2011 is positioned directly opposite the motor 2, and the wiring terminals of the motor 2 are exposed on the housing 1 through the heat dissipation hole 2011, which facilitates heat dissipation of the motor 2 and external wiring. The housing 1 has a through hole 2021 on the outer wall corresponding to the second chamber 202, and a mounting platform 2022 extends outward from the outer wall of the housing 1 corresponding to the second chamber 202. The mounting platform 2022 communicates with the second chamber 202 through the through hole 2021, and a fixed shaft 2023 is vertically arranged on the mounting platform 2022. The first drive gear of the drive gear set 4 is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 2023, so that the first drive gear can be rotatably mounted outside the second chamber 20 and can mesh with other gears of the drive gear set 4 through the through hole 2021. At least one mounting hole 2024 is provided at the edge of the mounting platform 2022. The mounting hole 2024 is detachably fixed to the outer housing by a threaded component (such as a screw). In order to improve the connection strength between the drive device and the outer housing, the mounting hole 2024 is also provided on the other side of the housing 1 opposite to the mounting platform 2022.

[0026] In other embodiments, the second cavity 20 may consist of only a single chamber, in which the motor 2 and the drive gear set 4 are both connected to the chamber and connected to the outside through the heat dissipation hole 2011 and the through hole 2021, respectively. The mounting platform 2022 may not have mounting holes 2024, and multiple mounting holes 2024 may be distributed on the outer peripheral wall of the housing 1.

[0027] In this embodiment, the housing 1 includes a first housing 11, a second housing 12, and a third housing 13. The second housing 12 and the third housing 13 are fixed to opposite sides of the first housing 11. A first cavity 10 and a first chamber 201 are formed between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, and a second chamber 202 is formed between the first housing 11 and the third housing 13. It can be understood that the first housing 11 has multiple connecting holes 111 distributed along its edge, the second housing 12 has multiple fixing holes 121 corresponding to the multiple connecting holes 111, and the third housing 13 has multiple fixing posts 131 extending out from the multiple connecting holes 111. Each fixing post 131 is inserted into a corresponding connecting hole 111 and fixedly connected to a fixing hole 121 by a threaded component (screw, etc.). This arrangement simplifies the fixing structure of the housing 1, making the structure of the housing 1 more reasonable and compact.

[0028] In other embodiments, the housing 1 may adopt different structures depending on the location and shape distribution of each chamber. For example, the housing 1 may only include a first housing and a second housing that are fixedly connected.

[0029] It can be understood that motor 2 is a dual-shaft motor structure. One of the output shafts of motor 2 extends into the first cavity 10 to be fixed with the fan blade 3, and the other output shaft of motor 2 extends into the first chamber 201 to be fixed with the drive gear set 4.

[0030] The drive gear assembly 4 is driven to rotate by another output shaft of the motor 2. The drive gear assembly 4 includes a first drive gear 41, a second drive gear 42, a first transmission chain 43, and a second transmission chain 44. The first drive gear 41 is rotatably connected to the fixed shaft 2023 and meshes with the second transmission chain 44 through a through hole 2021. The second drive gear 42 is rotatably connected inside the second chamber 202, and its rotating shaft 421 rotatably extends outside the second chamber 202. In this embodiment, the first drive gear 41 is provided with an eccentric block 411, which can cooperate with other structural components of the toy, such as swinging or moving parts, to drive these components to perform corresponding functional actions when the first drive gear 41 rotates. The rotating shaft 421 of the second drive gear 42 can cooperate with another structural component of the toy, such as a rotating part (e.g., a wheel), to drive this other structural component to perform corresponding functional actions when the second drive gear 42 rotates.

[0031] In other embodiments, the eccentric block 411 may not be provided on the first drive gear 41. In this case, the first drive gear 41 can be directly connected to other structural parts of the toy through its shaft or indirectly connected to other structural parts of the toy.

[0032] The first transmission chain 43 is rotatably mounted within the first chamber 201. One end of the first transmission chain 43 is fixed to the output shaft of the motor 2, and the other end is fixed to one end of the second transmission chain 44. The first transmission chain 43 is used to transmit the torque of the motor 2 to the second transmission chain 44. In this embodiment, the first transmission chain 43 includes a first gear 431 and a second gear 432 that are meshed together. The first gear 431 is fixed to the output shaft of the motor 1, and the second gear 432 is coaxially fixed with the gear of the second transmission chain 44.

[0033] In other embodiments, the number of gears in the first transmission chain 43 may be set to one or more, etc.

[0034] The second transmission chain 44 is rotatably mounted within the second chamber 202, and its other end is meshed with the first drive gear 41 and the second drive gear 42, respectively. The second transmission chain 44 is used to transmit the torque of the motor 2 to the first drive gear 41 and the second drive gear 42. In this embodiment, the second transmission chain 44 includes a third gear 441, a fourth gear 442, and a fifth gear 443 that are meshed with each other in sequence. The third gear 441 is coaxially fixed with the second gear 442, and the fifth gear 443 is positioned opposite the through hole 2021 and meshes with the first drive gear 41 and the second drive gear 42, respectively. It can be understood that the fifth gear 443 is a double gear, wherein the larger gear of the fifth gear 443 meshes with the second drive gear 42, and the smaller gear of the fifth gear 443 meshes with the first drive gear 41, so that the first drive gear 41 and the second drive gear 42 are driven to rotate at different speeds.

[0035] In other embodiments, the number of gears in the second transmission chain 44 may be set to one, two, or more than four, and the gears in the second transmission chain 44 that mesh with the first drive gear 41 and the second drive gear 42 may be set as single gears.

[0036] 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.
