[0026] Please refer to the following at the same time Figure 1-6 This embodiment provides a two-sided transforming toy, including a base plate 1 and multiple side plates 2 pivotally connected to the outer periphery of the base plate 1. The multiple side plates 2 can rotate relative to one side of the base plate 1 and are closedly connected to the base plate 1 to form a receiving cavity 100. In this embodiment, both the base plate 1 and the side plates 2 are square plates, and the closed connection of the base plate 1 and the side plates 2 can form a cube. In other embodiments, the base plate 1 can be a circular plate, a pentagonal plate, or other shapes, and the side plates 2 can also be curved plates, rectangular plates, or other shapes. The closed connection of the base plate 1 and the side plates 2 can form a sphere, a spherical crown, a cylinder, a polygonal prism, a polygonal pyramid, or other shapes.
[0027] It is understood that both the substrate 1 and the side plates 2 include a first surface 201 and a second surface 202 disposed opposite to each other. A first body 31 is fixedly connected to the first surface of the substrate 1, and a second body 32 is fixedly connected to its second surface. Each side plate 2 has a first pattern drawn on its first surface and a second pattern drawn on its second surface. In this embodiment, the first body 31 and the second body 32 have the same shape and are mirror images of each other relative to the substrate 1. The first pattern and the second pattern are different from each other. It should be noted that when the multiple side plates 2 and the first surface of the substrate 1 are closedly connected, the first body 31 is housed within the receiving cavity 100, and the second body 32 and the second surfaces (and second patterns) of the multiple side plates 2 constitute a first configuration. When the multiple side plates 2 and the second surface of the substrate 1 are closedly connected, the second body 32 is housed within the receiving cavity 100, and the first body 31 and the first surfaces (and first patterns) of the multiple side plates 2 constitute a second configuration. Therefore, the two-faced transforming toy provided in this embodiment achieves its shape transformation by flipping the side plates 2 on the base plate 1. The transformation operation is simple, and the transformation structure is simple and compact, which can effectively reduce production costs. In other embodiments, the shapes of the first body 31 and the second body 32 can adopt different structural settings. For example, the first body 31 can be humanoid, and the second body 32 can be animaloid, etc., to increase the difference between the two transformation forms of the toy and increase the toy's fun and visual appeal. The first pattern and the second pattern on some side plates 2 can be set identically to form complete pattern information with the patterns on other side plates 2.
[0028] Specifically, a snap-fit mounting base 11 is provided on the first surface and the second surface of the substrate 1, and snap-fit feet are provided at the ends of the first body 31 and the second body 32, which can be snapped onto the corresponding snap-fit mounting base 11.
[0029] In this embodiment, each snap-fit mounting base 11 is provided with a first snap-fit hole 111 and a second snap-fit hole 112 spaced apart. A snap-fit crossbar 113 is horizontally provided on the inner sidewall of the snap-fit mounting base 11 at a position adjacent to the first snap-fit hole 111, and a snap-fit step 114 is horizontally provided on the inner sidewall of the snap-fit mounting base 11 at a position adjacent to the second snap-fit hole 112. It can be understood that the snap-fit step 114 of one snap-fit mounting base 11 corresponds to the first snap-fit hole 111 of the other snap-fit mounting base 11. This arrangement allows the two opposing snap-fit connecting bases 11 to cooperate to form a snap-fit limiting structure, increasing the strength of the snap-fit feet fixed to the snap-fit mounting base 11, thereby making it less likely for the first body 31 and the second body 32 to detach from the substrate 1. Specifically, the latching and limiting structure includes a first limiting gap formed by opposing latching crossbars 113 and latching steps 114, allowing the latching foot to pass through. It also includes a second limiting gap formed by opposing latching steps 114 and the inner sidewall of the latching mounting base 11, allowing the latching foot to pass through. The first and second limiting gaps restrict the left and right swinging of the latching foot, thereby preventing it from being dislodged from the substrate 1 under force. In other embodiments, each latching mounting base 11 may have only one latching hole.
[0030] In this embodiment, the latching feet on the first body 31 and the second body 32 each include a first latching foot 331 and a second latching foot 332 spaced apart. The first latching foot 331 can pass through the first latching hole 111 (specifically the first limiting gap) and be fastened to the latching crossbar 113. The second latching foot 332 can pass through the second latching hole 112 (specifically the second limiting gap) and be fastened to the latching step 114. In other embodiments, if the latching mounting base 11 has only one latching hole, the number of latching feet on the first body 31 and the second body 32 can be adjusted to one.
[0031] It is understood that a magnetic block 4 is provided at least one edge of each side plate 2, and multiple side plates 2 are detachably and closedly connected by the magnetic blocks 4 to form a receiving cavity 100 with the substrate 1. In this embodiment, the multiple side plates 2 include a first side plate 21 and multiple second side plates 22. Since the substrate 1 is a square plate, there are three second side plates 22. The three second side plates 22 and the first plate of the first side plate 21 are pivotally connected to the four sides of the substrate 1, respectively. In other embodiments, if the three-dimensional shape formed by the substrate 1 and the side plates 2 is a cone or other topless structure, the multiple side plates 2 can be set to the same structure.
[0032] The first side plate 21 includes a first plate 211 and a second plate 212 pivotally connected to each other. The first plate 211 is pivotally connected to the outer periphery of the substrate 1. The second plate 212 is provided with a plurality of magnetic blocks 4 and is detachably and closedly connected to the three second side plates 22 through the magnetic blocks 4. In this embodiment, a magnetic block 4 is embedded on the side of each second side plate 22 opposite to its rotation axis, and a magnetic block 4 is embedded on each side of the second plate 212 corresponding to the three second side plates 22. If the second side plate 22 and the first plate 211 rotate toward the same side of the substrate 1, the second plate 212 can move with the rotation of the first plate 211 to a position opposite to the substrate 1 and perpendicular to the second side plate 22 and the first plate 211. At this time, the magnetic block 4 in the second plate 212 and the magnetic block in the second side plate 22 can generate a magnetic attraction force, so that the second plate 212 can attract and fix the second side plate 22, thereby enabling the multiple side plates 2 to be closed and connected to form a closed structure with the substrate 1. In other embodiments, magnetic blocks 4 can also be provided on other sides of the second side plate 22 and the first plate 211 to further increase the firmness of the magnetic connection between the multiple side plates 2.
[0033] In this embodiment, a carrying block 2121 is fixedly provided on the first surface and the second surface of the second plate 212, respectively. The player can pull the second plate 212 to rotate it until it is separated from the second side plate 22 by using the carrying block 2121, thereby allowing the multiple side plates 2 to be unfolded for shape transformation. In other embodiments, the second plate 212 may not be provided with a carrying block 2121.
[0034] In this embodiment, a first ornament 213 and a second ornament 214 are detachably fixed to the first and second surfaces of the second plate 212, respectively. The first ornament 213 and the second ornament 214 have different shapes. The first ornament 213 and the second ornament 214 are detachably connected to the second plate 212 through a plug-in structure. The first ornament 213 can be exposed on the second plate 212 when the toy is in the second form, and the second ornament 214 can be exposed on the second plate 212 when the toy is in the first form. The first ornament 213 and the second ornament 214 can be used to increase the distinguishing features between the first and second forms and improve the recognizability between the two forms. In other embodiments, the first ornament 213 and the second ornament 214 may not be provided on the second plate 212. The second plate 212 may only have a first pattern and a second pattern that are different from each other. The first ornament 213 and the second ornament 214 can be fixed to the second plate 212 through other detachable structures, such as a snap-fit structure or a magnetic structure.
[0035] The gameplay of the two-faced transforming toy provided in this embodiment is as follows: The first plate 211 and the second side plate 22 are rotated on the base plate 1, causing them to rotate towards the direction of the first surface of the base plate 1. Then, magnetic attraction is achieved through the magnetic block 4 between the second plate 212 and the second side plate 22, closing the base plate 1 and the side plate 2 to form a receiving cavity 100, which houses the first body 31. At this time, the second body 32 is exposed on the base plate 1, and the second body 32 and the second pattern on the second surface of the side plate 2 constitute the first form. The second plate 212 is rotated by the handle 2121 until it separates from the second side plate 22, causing the side plate 2 to be in an unfolded state. Then, the first plate 211 and the second side plate 22 are rotated towards the direction of the second surface of the base plate 1. The second plate 212 and the second side plate 22 are again magnetically attracted through the magnetic block 4, closing the base plate 1 and the side plate 2 again to form the receiving cavity 100, which houses the second body 32. At this time, the first body 31 is exposed on the substrate 1, and the first body 31 and the first pattern on the first surface of the side plate 2 constitute the second form.
[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.
