Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toy technology, and more particularly to a suction cup toy. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, a common type of toy on the market that allows for elastic stretching and playing is a spiral made of elastic material, which can be used to play by stretching its two ends. Existing Chinese patent CN203425522U provides a rainbow ring with a cartoon character, which allows the plastic rainbow ring to be quickly inserted into a connecting slot via an insert, achieving the connection between the plastic rainbow ring and the end cap. However, in actual use, the connecting slot does not securely connect the rainbow ring. During vigorous elastic vibration or under external pulling force, it easily separates from the end cap. Furthermore, the existing rainbow ring offers limited gameplay and fails to provide a novel gaming experience, resulting in weak consumer appeal and difficulty in widespread application.

Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this specification of the present invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the present invention.

[0023] Please refer to the following at the same time Figure 1-5 This embodiment provides a suction cup toy, including an elastic body 1 and a first end cap 2 and a second end cap 3 respectively connected to both ends of the elastic body 1. The elastic body 1 is a spiral structure made of an elastic and bendable elastic material (such as elastic plastic), and the elastic body 1 can be stretched under force and can elastically return to its original shape when no force is applied.

[0024] The first end cap 2 includes a first inner cap 21 and a first outer cap 22, with the first inner cap 21 fixedly connected to the inner side of the first outer cap 22. The second end cap 3 includes a second inner cap 31 and a second outer cap 32, with the second inner cap 31 fixedly connected to the inner side of the second outer cap 32. In this embodiment, to reduce production and design costs, the first inner cap 21 and the second inner cap 31 use the same structural design. In other embodiments, the first inner cap 21 and the second inner cap 31 may use different structural designs, for example, the first inner cap 21 may have a through hole while the second inner cap 31 may not have a through hole.

[0025] Multiple locking frames 101 are spaced apart on the inner surfaces of the first end cap 2 and the second end cap 3 (i.e., on the first inner cover 21 and the second inner cover 31). Each locking frame 101 has a channel 1011 on both sides through which the end of the elastic body 1 can pass. The channels 1011 of the multiple locking frames 101 are connected to form an annular channel 100, in which the elastic body 1 can be inserted and fixed. When it is necessary to connect the elastic body 1 to the first end cap 2 and the second end cap 3, the end of the elastic body 1 is inserted into any channel 1011 of the first end cap 2 and the second end cap 3. Then, the elastic body 1 and the first end cap 2, the elastic body 1 and the second end cap 3 are rotated relative to each other, so that the end of the elastic body 1 is inserted and fixed in the annular channel 100. When it is necessary to separate the elastic body 1 from the first end cap 2 and the second end cap 3, the rotation is reversed to separate the end of the elastic body 1 from the annular channel 100. It is understandable that the structure of the ring channel has the advantages of simple, quick and effortless installation, and can firmly connect the elastic body 1, the first end cap 2 and the second end cap 3, which can reduce the possibility of separation due to external forces (such as tension and centrifugal force), and is highly practical.

[0026] In this embodiment, the bottom of the locking frame 101 in the first inner cover 21 and the second inner cover 31 is provided with a positioning hole 1012. The positioning hole 1012 can cooperate with the positioning blocks in the first outer cover 22 and the second outer cover 32, so that the first inner cover 21 (second inner cover 31) can be quickly placed in the correct position of the first outer cover 22 (second outer cover 32), so as to facilitate the quick installation of the first inner cover 21, the first outer cover 22, the second inner cover 31, and the second outer cover 32. Specifically, the inner sidewalls of the first outer cover 22 and the second outer cover 32 are provided with positioning blocks 201 corresponding to the locking frame 101. The positioning blocks 201 have positioning steps 2011 formed on them, and the positioning steps 2011 abut against the outer wall of the positioning hole 1012. In other embodiments, the bottom of the locking frame 101 may not have a positioning hole 1012, and the positioning blocks 201 may not be provided in the first outer cover 22 and the second outer cover 32.

[0027] In this embodiment, the first inner cover 21 is also provided with a through hole 102, which corresponds one-to-one with the mounting hole on the first outer cover 22. The through hole 102 is used for the end of the suction cup 4 to pass through, so that a larger suction cup 4 can be installed on the mounting hole. The first inner cover 21 and the second inner cover 31 are also provided with countersunk holes 103, and a threaded component (not shown) is connected in the countersunk hole 103. The first inner cover 21 and the second inner cover 31 can be fixed to the first outer cover 22 and the second outer cover 32 respectively through the threaded component. Specifically, the inner sidewall of the first outer cover 22 and the second outer cover 32 is provided with a fixing post 202 corresponding to the countersunk hole 103, and the threaded component is fixedly connected to the fixing post 202. In other embodiments, the first inner cover 21 may not be provided with a through hole 102. In this case, the end of the suction cup 4 must be completely installed in the mounting hole. The countersunk hole 103 can be replaced by other structures such as insertion hole, insertion post, snap groove, snap foot, etc., and then the first outer cover 22 and the second outer cover 32 are respectively provided with corresponding structures that can be fixedly connected to it.

[0028] At least one mounting hole 221 is provided on the outer side of the first end cap 2 (i.e., the first outer cap 22). The mounting holes 221 correspond one-to-one with the through holes 102, and a suction cup 4 is tightly and fixedly connected to each mounting hole 221. It can be understood that since the suction cup 4 is made of rubber material, the connecting end of each suction cup 4 can be tightly and fixed in the mounting hole 221 after being inserted into it. The adsorption surface of each suction cup 4 faces away from the elastic body 1. The suction cup 4 is used to adsorb external objects (such as game cards), so that the elastic body can adsorb external objects through the suction cup 4 during elastic vibration. This can be combined with the external objects to expand more gameplay, increase the appeal to consumers, and facilitate widespread application.

[0029] In this embodiment, a mounting base 321 is provided on the outer surface of the second outer cover 32. The mounting base 321 is a boss protruding from the first outer cover 32. At least one side of the mounting base 321 is provided with an elastic snap plate 3211, and the mounting base 321 is detachably connected to the decorative piece 5 through the elastic snap plate 3211. To increase the stability of the decorative piece 5 connected to the mounting base 321, one of the elastic snap plates 3211 of the mounting base 321 extends towards the top of the mounting base 321 and has a limiting hole 3212, which is used to insert and connect the decorative piece 5. To further increase the stability of the decorative piece 5 connected to the second outer cover 32, a fixing groove 322 is also provided on the outer surface of the second outer cover 32, which is used to insert and connect the decorative piece 5. In other embodiments, the mounting base 321 can be configured as a groove recessed into the first outer cover 32, in which case at least one side of the groove is also provided with an elastic snap plate 3211. The elastic buckle plate 3211 may not have a limiting hole 3212. Alternatively, the second outer cover 32 may not have a fixing groove 322. In this case, the decorative part 5 may not have a corresponding structure.

[0030] Decorative part 5 features a cartoon doll-like decorative appearance, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the suction cup toy. It also includes a connecting portion 51 that matches the shape of the mounting base 321; in this embodiment, the connecting portion 51 is a groove structure. The connecting portion 51 has a latching foot 511 corresponding to the elastic latching plate 3211, which can be fastened to the elastic latching plate 3211. Simultaneously, a protrusion 512 is provided in the connecting portion 51 corresponding to the limiting hole 3212, which can be inserted into the limiting hole 3212. A fixing foot 52 is provided on the decorative part 5 corresponding to the fixing groove 322, which can be fitted into the fixing groove 322. In other embodiments, if the mounting base 321 is a groove recessed into the first outer cover 32, the connecting portion 51 is adjusted to a corresponding protrusion structure.

[0031] If it is necessary to install the decorative piece 5 on the second outer cover 32, connect the connecting part 51 to the mounting base 321, so that the snap-fit ​​foot 511 is fastened to the elastic snap-fit ​​plate 3211 (at this time, the protrusion 512 moves and inserts into the limiting hole 3212), and at the same time, make the fixing foot 52 fit into the fixing groove 322. If it is necessary to remove and replace different decorative pieces 51, pull the decorative piece 51 off the second outer cover 32, so that the snap-fit ​​foot 511 is separated from the elastic snap-fit ​​plate 3211 (at this time, the protrusion 512 moves to separate from the limiting hole 3212), and at the same time, make the fixing foot 52 separate from the fixing groove 322.

[0032] 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.
