Detailed Implementation
[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. Here, the illustrative embodiments and their descriptions are used to explain this application, but are not intended to limit it.
[0031] Example 1
[0032] refer to Figures 1 to 5 ,like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, this embodiment provides a detachable battery box. The battery box 10 includes an outer box body formed by two half-box covers 11 that can be separated by a snap-fit structure. The outer box body is made of high-strength, impact-resistant plastic material to ensure that it is not easily damaged when subjected to external impact. The outer box body has an inner cavity for installing a battery 16. The size of the inner cavity matches the size of the battery 16 to ensure that the battery 16 is installed firmly and not easily shaken. The inner cavity is also provided with an electrical output head 17 that is electrically connected to the battery 16. The electrical output head 17 is made of high-quality conductive material to ensure the stability and efficiency of current transmission. The half-box covers 11 are provided with elastic locking arms 14 to make the outer box body detachable. The elastic locking arms 14 have a certain bending ability. The battery box 10 can be plugged and unplugged into the corresponding mounting cavity. The elastic locking arms 14 cooperate with the locking slots located in the mounting cavity to lock the position of the outer box body, making it difficult for the battery box 10 to separate from the mounting cavity and ensuring the stability of the battery box 10 position. Because the battery box 10 is a detachable integral structure, the battery 16 is limited by the outer box, which prevents poor contact of the battery 16 due to vibration and also prevents the battery 16 from accidentally falling off during use, making the toy work more stably.
[0033] In this application, the engaging structure includes retaining rings 12 and retaining teeth 13 respectively disposed on the two half-covers 11. The retaining rings 12 are tangentially arranged and extend outward, while the retaining teeth 13 are disposed at the corresponding positions on the other half-cover 11. When engaged, the retaining rings 12 are located outside the retaining teeth 13. A stable engaging connection is formed by the tight engagement of the retaining rings 12 and the retaining teeth 13. This engaging structure not only provides a stable connection but also facilitates easy assembly and disassembly, allowing for quick assembly and disassembly of the battery box 10 without the need for additional tools.
[0034] In this embodiment, there are three locking structures. Two locking structures are located at the connecting seams on both sides of the battery box 10, and the other locking structure is located on the end face of the outer box with the power output head 17. The power output head 17 is located between the two half-covers 11. This structure makes it easy to install and remove the power output head 17 while ensuring stable installation, preventing poor contact due to shaking.
[0035] In this application, the elastic locking arm 14 is located within the corresponding through hole of the half-cover 11. The outer surface of the elastic locking arm 14 is flush with and concave relative to the outer surface of the half-cover 11. The locking protrusion 141 of the elastic locking arm 14, which mates with the locking groove, is hemispherical. The size of the locking protrusion 141 matches the size of the locking groove in the battery box mounting cavity 21. The locking protrusion 141 protrudes above the outer surface of the half-cover 11, ensuring locking force and making the battery box 10 difficult to separate. This locking method is both stable and convenient, allowing for quick fixing and disassembly of the battery box without the need for additional tools.
[0036] The 141 can also adopt an isosceles trapezoidal structure.
[0037] To facilitate the disassembly of the battery box 10, one structural design is as follows: the length of the battery box 10 is greater than the depth of the mounting cavity. After the battery box 10 is installed, a small section will protrude, making it easy to disassemble and reassemble by hand. However, this design is not aesthetically pleasing, and the protruding part of the battery box 10 is easily damaged by impacts, which can affect its service life.
[0038] Preferably, in this application, a notch 15 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the outer box, and the toy has an operating notch corresponding to the position of the notch 15, so that the battery box 10 is concealed and not easily damaged by vibration or collision. The size and shape of the notch 15 are reasonably designed, making it easy for the user to insert their finger and apply pulling force to pull the battery box 10 out of the mounting cavity. The notch 15 improves the ease of disassembly of the battery box and further enhances the user experience.
[0039] To ensure the correct installation orientation of the battery box 10 on the first attempt, a foolproof installation feature is incorporated. The radial cross-section of the outer box is a long strip with a rounded top and a rounded bottom, and the arc portion of the outer box is coaxially aligned with the battery 16. Compared to a symmetrical square structure, this design provides foolproof assembly, is compact, requires little installation space, and is easy to hold.
[0040] The half-lid 11 has a recessed groove 111 on the plane away from the arc portion. The retaining ring 12 or retaining tooth 13 is installed in the corresponding recessed groove 111 to avoid the engaging structure affecting the flatness of the plane. The engaging structure located at the arc portion of the battery box 10 is long and convex. The engaging structure and the toy are resisted by the engaging structure to prevent the battery box 10 from being over-pressed and causing tearing to the toy.
[0041] Example 2
[0042] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 The toy gun shown has a battery box as described in Embodiment 1. The gun body 20 has a battery box mounting cavity 21 for inserting and installing the battery box 10. The size and shape of the battery box mounting cavity 21 match the battery box 10 to ensure that the battery box 10 can be stably installed on the gun body 20. The battery box mounting cavity 21 has an electrical connector 24 that can be detachably connected to the electrical output head 17. The electrical connector 24 is electrically connected to a controller installed in the gun body 20 to realize the function of the battery powering the various parts of the toy gun.
[0043] The opening of the battery compartment mounting cavity 21 has a clearance notch 22 that allows the slot 15 to be externally positioned. The size and shape of the clearance notch 22 match the slot 15, ensuring that the user can easily pull the battery compartment 10, which is hidden inside the battery compartment mounting cavity 21, out of the battery compartment mounting cavity 21 through the slot 15. The clearance notch 22 improves the ease of disassembly and removal of the battery compartment 10, further enhancing the user experience.
[0044] The toy gun also includes a control switch 23 and a wrench 25 mounted on the gun body 20. Pulling the wrench 25 will trigger the control switch 23. The control switch 23 is electrically connected to the controller. Pulling the wrench 25 will activate the lights, player, and smoke generator, making the operation of the toy gun more convenient and intuitive.
[0045] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to the embodiments of this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
