[0032] Example 1

[0033] Please see Figure 1-3 By replacing the original hard wood or hard plastic with the spherical soft sleeve 2 and the buffer zone 3 set between the spherical soft sleeve 2 and the sound generator 1, the impact force when the sand hammer head collides with the user's body is reduced, thereby reducing the pain or injury that may be caused to the user.

[0034] The sand hammer of this application includes a sound generator 1, which is used to produce sound. Specifically, when the sound generator 1 is shaken, the particles inside the sound generator 1 collide with the inner wall of the shell of the sound generator 1 to produce a rustling sound; and a spherical soft sleeve 2 fixedly covered on the outside of the sound generator 1, with a buffer zone 3 between the spherical soft sleeve 2 and the sound generator 1. By using the spherical soft sleeve 2 as the exposed sand hammer head, if the sand hammer collides with the user during use, the spherical soft sleeve 2 can reduce the injury to the user, and the buffer zone 3 between the spherical soft sleeve 2 and the sound generator 1 can further buffer and reduce the impact force, which is especially suitable for use by infants and young children; and a grip part 4, the first end of the grip part 4 is connected to the sound generator 1 and / or the spherical soft sleeve 2, and the second end of the grip part 4 extends out of the spherical soft sleeve 2 to facilitate the user's grip and use.

[0035] In one alternative embodiment, the sound generator 1 is a rattle, that is, the sound is produced by shaking the rattle so that the particles or other objects inside the rattle collide with the inner wall of the rattle. Optionally, the sound generator 1 can also be other devices that can produce sound, such as making sound by grasping the sound generator 1.

[0036] In one optional embodiment, the spherical soft sleeve 2 is a silicone sleeve. The silicone sleeve is soft, highly malleable, has a low cost, and is easy to manufacture. In addition, the silicone sleeve has wide applicability, is non-toxic and harmless, and is suitable for daily use.

[0037] In one alternative embodiment, the spherical sleeve 2 can be molded from flexible rubber or plastic.

[0038] In one optional embodiment, the buffer zone 3 is a cavity. The cavity, acting as a buffer zone 3, can cooperate with the spherical soft sleeve 2, providing sufficient deformation space for the spherical soft sleeve 2 when it collides. Furthermore, the cavity structure is simple, which is beneficial for the sound generator 1 to be installed inside the spherical soft sleeve 2. Optionally, there can be one or more cavities.

[0039] In one alternative implementation, the buffer zone 3 is an elastic deformation zone, which may be filled with an elastic material such as silicone or rubber.

[0040] In one alternative implementation, the buffer zone 3 can be a combination of a cavity and an elastic deformation zone.

[0041] In one alternative implementation, the buffer 3 may be one or more cavities and / or elastic buffers that are integrated into the spherical sleeve 2.

[0042] In one optional embodiment, the grip 4 is a neck-shaped sleeve, and the spherical soft sleeve 2 is the head of the maracas. The outer curve of the neck-shaped sleeve connects to the outer curve of the open end of the spherical soft sleeve 2, making the overall shape of the maracas stepless. The diameter of the neck-shaped sleeve is smaller than the diameter of the spherical soft sleeve 2, making it easy to grip. Optionally, the neck-shaped sleeve can be made of one or more materials such as wood, rubber, plastic, or metal.

[0043] In one alternative embodiment, the connection between the spherical soft sleeve 2 and the sound generator 1 has an open end, the open end of the spherical soft sleeve 2 has an inner abutting surface 21, and the sand hammer also includes a reverse pull member 5, the reverse pull member 5 has a first limiting surface 51 that abuts against the inner abutting surface 21; the reverse pull member 5 extends outward to the outside of the spherical soft sleeve 2 to form a connecting section 52 that connects to the gripping part 4.

[0044] In this embodiment, the pull member 5 abuts against the inner contact surface 21 of the spherical soft sleeve 2 through the first limiting surface 51, and extends out a connecting section 52 to connect with the gripping part 4, so that the spherical soft sleeve 2 is fixed by the connection between the pull member 5 and the gripping part 4; further, the inner contact surface 21 has at least one first buckle groove 211, and the first limiting surface 51 has a first protrusion 511 that engages with the first buckle groove 211: preferably, the first buckle groove 211 is an annular buckle groove, and the first protrusion 511 is an annular protrusion; by engaging the first buckle groove 211 and the first protrusion 511, the contact area and friction between the two are increased to ensure that the spherical soft sleeve 2 is fully fixed and prevented from falling out: the number of first buckle grooves 211 can be 2, 3, 4, 5 or more, and is not limited thereto: the number of first protrusions 511 is set according to the number of first buckle grooves 211.

[0045] In one optional embodiment, the sound generator 1 includes a housing and a plurality of impactors disposed within the housing; the impactors emit a rustling sound when they impact the inner wall of the housing; the housing is fixedly connected to the inner end of the anti-pull member 5, and the spherical soft sleeve 2 is fixedly covered on the outer side of the housing, thereby ensuring that there is a buffer zone 3 of a fixed size between the spherical soft sleeve 2 and the sound generator 1.

[0046] In one alternative embodiment, the open end of the spherical soft sleeve 2 also has an outer abutting surface 22, and the gripping part 4 has a second limiting surface 41 that abuts against the outer abutting surface 22.

[0047] In this embodiment, the spherical soft sleeve 2 is clamped from the outside by the second limiting surface 41 on the gripping part 4, and the spherical soft sleeve 2 is clamped from the inside by the first limiting surface 51 of the anti-pull member 5, thereby fully fixing the spherical soft sleeve 2.

[0048] Furthermore, a threaded hole 53 is provided at the outer end of the connecting section 52, and a screw 42 is inserted on the gripping part 4 at the position corresponding to the threaded hole 53 to be threadedly connected to the threaded hole 53; specifically, when the screw 42 is screwed into the threaded hole 53, the puller 5 and the gripping part 4 will move closer to each other to clamp the spherical soft sleeve 2.

[0049] Furthermore, the outer contact surface 22 has at least one second snap groove 221, and the second limiting surface 41 has a second protrusion 411 that engages with the second snap groove 221. The engagement between the second snap groove 221 and the second protrusion 411 increases the contact area and friction between them, further strengthening the fixing effect on the spherical soft sleeve 2 and preventing it from coming off. The number of second snap grooves 221 can be 2, 3, 4, 5 or more, and is not limited thereto. The number of second protrusions 411 is set in accordance with the number of second snap grooves 221. Preferably, the second snap groove 221 is an annular groove, and the second protrusion 411 is an annular protrusion.

[0050] In one alternative embodiment, the connecting segment 52 is connected to the gripping portion 4 by a guide structure 7, the guide direction of which extends along the axial direction of the connecting segment 52.

[0051] In this embodiment, the guide structure 7 guides the pull member 5 and the gripping part 4 to move closer together, preventing the movement direction from deviating during the process of them moving closer together; at the same time, the guide structure 7 limits the maximum movement distance of the two.

[0052] Optionally, the guide structure 7 includes mutually cooperating guide grooves 71 and guide bars 72, the guide bars 72 being able to move in a guided manner within the corresponding guide grooves 71. The outer wall of the connecting segment 52 has one or more guide grooves 71 and / or guide bars 72, and whether the inner wall of the gripping part 4 has guide grooves 71 or guide bars 72 and the corresponding number are set according to the characteristics of the connecting segment 52.

[0053] In one alternative embodiment, four guide bars 72 extending along the axial direction of the connecting section 52 are arranged circumferentially on the outer wall of the connecting section 52, and four guide grooves 71 are provided circumferentially on the inner wall of the gripping part 4 to cooperate with the guide bars 72.

[0054] Example 2

[0055] The double-headed rattle includes an internally threaded tube 6 and two sand hammers. The outer walls of the outer ends of the grips 4 of the two sand hammers are threaded. The internally threaded tube 6 is connected to the two threaded parts to fix the two sand hammers together. Specifically, the internally threaded tube 6 is first threaded to the outer end of the grip 4 of one sand hammer, and then the grip 4 of the other sand hammer is threaded to the internally threaded tube 6 to form a double-headed rattle. The two grips 4 are connected to a suitable length for easy gripping. Preferably, the outer surface of the internally threaded tube 6 and the outer surface of the grip 4 are connected to form an arc-shaped curved surface to reduce or avoid the formation of stepped surfaces, making the overall shell of the double-headed rattle smooth.
