[0034] The first aspect of this application discloses a sensory toy 1000, combined with... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the sensor toy 1000 includes a main body 1100 and a closed loop 1200. The closed loop 1200 is disposed in the main body 1100 and includes an electrical appliance 1210. The closed loop 1200 is adapted to generate an induced current when the magnetic flux passing through it changes. When the closed loop 1200 generates an induced current, the induced current flows through the electrical appliance 1210, and the electrical appliance 1210 exhibits a corresponding change when energized. In this way, the changes of the sensor toy 1000 can be realized without contact, providing a fun way to play and helping to stimulate children's curiosity and desire to explore, thus achieving edutainment.

[0035] The main body 1100 can have various structural forms, including a human-shaped doll structure, an animal-shaped doll structure, or an engineering vehicle structure. Of course, the main body 1100 can also be other types of structures for play, which will not be elaborated here. A closed loop 1200 is provided on the main body 1100. The closed loop 1200 is a closed circuit including an electrical appliance 1210. When the magnetic flux through the closed loop 1200 changes, an induced current is generated in the closed loop 1200. This induced current flows through the electrical appliance 1210, causing a corresponding change in the appliance 1210.

[0036] Appliance 1210 is a component that consumes electricity and converts electrical energy into other forms of energy. Appliance 1210 can be of various types. For example, appliance 1210 can be an LED light; when an induced current is generated in the closed circuit 1200, the induced current flows through the LED light, causing it to emit light. Another example is a speaker; when an induced current is generated in the closed circuit 1200, the induced current flows through the speaker, causing it to emit sound. Yet another example is a motor; when an induced current is generated in the closed circuit 1200, the induced current flows through the speaker, causing the motor to rotate, thus driving the movement of its connected components.

[0037] The induced current generated in closed loop 1200 is based on the principle of electromagnetic induction, including but not limited to the following situations:

[0038] A portion of the closed loop 1200 moves relative to the magnetic field, causing a change in the magnetic flux through the closed loop 1200, thus inducing a current in the closed loop 1200. For example, controlling the sensor toy 1000 to move within the magnetic field range continuously changes the magnetic flux through the closed loop 1200, causing an induced current to be generated in the closed loop 1200. Alternatively, controlling the sensor toy 1000 to gradually move closer to the magnetic field causes the induced current to gradually increase, while controlling the sensor toy 1000 to gradually move away from the magnetic field causes the induced current to gradually decrease.

[0039] The closed loop 1200 is stationary relative to the magnetic field, while the magnetic field itself is changing (its strength and direction change). This causes a change in the magnetic flux passing through the closed loop 1200, thus inducing a current in the closed loop 1200. For example, if the sensor toy 1000 is placed stationary within the range of the magnetic field, the changing magnetic field will cause a change in the magnetic flux passing through the closed loop 1200, thereby also inducing a current in the closed loop 1200.

[0040] Since the induced current in the closed loop 1200 is generated by the change in magnetic flux passing through the closed loop 1200, the corresponding change can occur even when the sensor toy 1000 is not in contact. This helps to stimulate children's curiosity and desire to explore. Parents can explain the underlying principles to their children, thus achieving edutainment.

[0041] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the closed loop 1200 further includes a first coil 1220 connected in series with the appliance 1210. The first coil 1220 can be formed by winding multiple turns according to actual needs. By setting the first coil 1220, it is more helpful to form a sufficient induced current to flow through the appliance 1210. In other words, under the premise of forming the same induced current, the structure of the first coil 1220 is more conducive to saving space.

[0042] Combination Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the sensor toy 1000 further includes a support base 1300, a first coil 1220 wound around the support base 1300, and an electrical appliance 1210 disposed on the support base 1300. The support base 1300 provides support for the first coil 1220 and the electrical appliance 1210. The first coil 1220 is wound around the support base 1300 to maintain its shape and structure. The electrical appliance 1210 is disposed on the support base 1300 and thus fixed thereto. For example, the electrical appliance 1210 can be fixed by bonding it to the support base 1300, which facilitates the connection between the electrical appliance 1210 and the first coil 1220 to form a closed loop 1200. Through the provision of the support base 1300, the support base 1300, the first coil 1220, and the electrical appliance 1210 constitute a modular component, which is convenient for flexible installation.

[0043] Combination Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the main body 1100 includes a movable member 1110, and the closed loop 1200 is disposed on the movable member 1110, such as the electrical appliance 1210 and the first coil 1220 disposed on the movable member 1110. Taking the sensor toy 1000 placed in a changing magnetic field as an example, even if the position of the sensor toy 1000 does not change, the magnetic flux passing through the closed loop 1200 can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the movable member 1110.

[0044] For example, the sensory toy 1000 shown in the attached diagram is a doll-like shape. The main body 1100 includes a torso 1101, limbs 1102, and a head 1103. The limbs 1102 and head 1103 can be considered as movable parts 1110. A module consisting of an electrical appliance 1210, a first coil 1220, and a support base 1300 is set in the head 1103. When the doll-like sensory toy 1000 is placed in a changing magnetic field, adjusting the position of the head 1103 helps to maximize the magnetic flux passing through the closed loop 1200, thereby generating a larger induced current. This causes the electrical appliance 1210 to produce a more noticeable change, allowing parents to further explain the various reasons to children, making it more conducive to learning through play. In addition, the movable parts 1110 allow the sensory toy 1000 to have various arrangement options, providing more play fun. The electrical appliance 1210 moves to different positions following the movement of the movable parts 1110. For example, if the electrical appliance 1210 is an LED light, it can emit light from multiple angles.

[0045] The second aspect of this application discloses a toy component, combined with Figures 1 to 6As shown, in some embodiments, the toy assembly includes a magnetic toy 2000 and the aforementioned sensory toy 1000. The magnetic toy 2000 is used to generate a magnetic field. The sensory toy 1000 includes a main body 1100 and a closed loop 1200. The closed loop 1200 is disposed in the main body 1100 and includes an electrical appliance 1210. The closed loop 1200 is adapted to generate an induced current when the magnetic flux passing through it changes. When the closed loop 1200 generates an induced current, the induced current flows through the electrical appliance 1210, and the electrical appliance 1210 exhibits a corresponding change when energized. In this way, the changes of the sensory toy 1000 can be realized without contact, providing a fun way to play and helping to stimulate children's curiosity and desire to explore, thus achieving edutainment.

[0046] The biomagnetic toy 2000 in this application generates a magnetic field, controlling the induction toy 1000 to move within the magnetic field range, and the closed loop 1200 continuously generates an induced current. The induced current flows through the electrical appliance 1210, causing the electrical appliance 1210 to exhibit a corresponding change. Alternatively, controlling the induction toy 1000 to gradually approach the biomagnetic toy 2000, the magnetic flux through the closed loop 1200 gradually increases, resulting in a gradually increasing induced current; controlling the induction toy 1000 to gradually move away from the biomagnetic toy 2000, the magnetic field through the closed loop 1200 gradually decreases, resulting in a gradually decreasing induced current.

[0047] Optionally, in some embodiments, the magnetic toy 2000 is adapted to generate a changing magnetic field. A changing magnetic field means that the strength and / or direction of the magnetic field can change. Thus, when the induction toy 1000 is placed within the range of the magnetic field, even if the induction toy 1000 remains stationary, the changing magnetic field causes a change in the magnetic flux through the closed loop 1200, thereby forming an induction circuit in the closed loop 1200. For example, if the magnetic toy 2000 and the induction toy 1000 are separate components, and the electrical appliance 1210 is an LED light, when the induction toy 1000 is placed next to the magnetic toy 2000, the changing magnetic field causes a change in the magnetic flux through the closed loop 1200, generating an induced current in the closed loop 1200, energizing the LED light. When the induction toy 1000 is moved away from the magnetic toy 2000, the closed loop 1200 is outside the changing magnetic field, and no induced current can be generated in the closed loop 1200, causing the LED light to turn off.

[0048] Combination Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, the magnetic toy 2000 includes a second coil 2200, which is adapted to generate a changing magnetic field when energized. The second coil 2200 can be formed by winding multiple turns as needed. By including the second coil 2200, it is easier to generate a sufficiently strong magnetic field; in other words, under the premise of generating the same magnetic field strength, the structure of the second coil 2200 is more conducive to saving space. It is understood that the changing magnetic field generated by energizing the second coil 2200 can be referenced from induction cooker technology, which will not be elaborated upon here.

[0049] Optionally, in some embodiments, the power source for the second coil 2200 is provided by a battery; that is, the magnetic toy 2000 also includes a battery that provides power for the changing magnetic field generated by the second coil 2200. This makes the entire magnetic toy 2000 easy to move and place in a suitable location, increasing the flexibility of play. For example... Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the biomagnetic toy 2000 includes a housing 2100, a second coil 2200, and a battery. The second coil 2200 is installed inside the housing 2100, and the battery is installed in the housing 2100 for power supply.

[0050] Optionally, in some embodiments, the power source for the second coil 2200 is an external power supply. That is, the magnetic toy 2000 also includes a power cord that connects to external power to provide power for the changing magnetic field generated by the second coil 2200. For example, the power cord may have a plug that plugs into a household outlet, thus receiving municipal power. This power cord arrangement eliminates the need for frequent battery replacements.

[0051] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the projected area of ​​the first coil 1220 along its central axis needs to be smaller than the projected area of ​​the second coil 2200 along its central axis. This allows the varying magnetic field generated by the second coil 2200 to cover a wider area, enabling the closed loop 1200 to generate induced current when the sensor toy 1000 is placed in multiple positions, greatly expanding the range of play. In particular, when the sensor toy 1000 has a movable part 1110, it can maximize the generation of induced current in different postures of the closed loop 1200 of the sensor toy 1000.

[0052] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, when the magnetic toy 2000 and the induction toy 1000 are placed on the same support surface, the highest point of the first coil 1220 is lower than the highest point of the second coil 2200, and the lowest point of the first coil 1220 is higher than the lowest point of the second coil 2200.

[0053] The magnetic toy 2000 and the sensor toy 1000 are separate components. The sensor toy 1000 can be placed in multiple positions relative to the magnetic toy 2000, thus being within the changing magnetic field generated by the second coil 2200. The sensor toy 1000 has an optimal position relative to the magnetic toy 2000 to generate an induced current. To increase the upper limit of the generated induced current, in this embodiment, the highest point of the first coil 1220 is lower than the highest point of the second coil 2200, and the lowest point of the first coil 1220 is higher than the lowest point of the second coil 2200. When the sensor toy 1000 is in the optimal position, the first coil 1220 is relatively closer to the central axis of the second coil 2200, resulting in a stronger magnetic field. This leads to a greater change in magnetic flux passing through the first coil 1220, thereby contributing to the generation of a larger induced current.

[0054] For example Figure 7 The toy assembly shown has a magnetic toy 2000 and a sensor toy 1000 placed on the same horizontal plane. The central axis of the first coil 1220 is horizontally set, and the central axis of the second coil 2200 is horizontally set. When the sensor toy 1000 is in the optimal position, the central axes of the first coil 1220 and the second coil 2200 are aligned in the same direction. When projected along the extension direction of the central axis of the first coil 1220, at least a portion of the projection of the first coil 1220 and the projection of the second coil 2200 coincide. When projected along the extension direction of the central axis of the second coil 2200, at least a portion of the projection of the second coil 2200 coincides with the projection of the first coil 1220.

[0055] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and does not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the concept of this application and the contents of the specification and drawings of this application, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this application.
