Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of children's toy technology, and more specifically, relates to a children's balance toy. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional balances typically employ precision mechanical structures or electronic sensors to ensure weighing accuracy and stability, which makes them expensive to manufacture and their operation overly complex for children. These balances often lack fun and interactivity, failing to stimulate children's interest and desire to explore, and cannot satisfy their hands-on and experiential needs as toys. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this application is to provide a children's balance toy to solve the technical problem of the lack of a balance toy suitable for children's hands-on and experiential needs in the prior art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows:
[0005] A children's balance scale toy is provided, comprising:
[0006] Support,
[0007] A support arm is hinged to the support base. Both ends of the support arm are provided with mounting slots. The two mounting slots are respectively arranged on both sides of the hinge position of the support arm, and the distance from the two mounting slots to the hinge position of the support arm is the same. The support arm is also provided with strip-shaped holes extending along its length direction. There are at least two strip-shaped holes, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the hinge position of the support arm.
[0008] The limiting member is slidably connected to the strip hole and can stop at a preset position; when the support arm is tilted to one side to a certain angle, the limiting member abuts against the support.
[0009] The suspended basket can be mounted on the mounting slot of the outrigger.
[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution:
[0011] Optionally, the suspended platform includes a cargo-carrying platform, which includes a cargo basket, uprights, and crossbeams. The uprights are located on both sides of the cargo basket, and the two ends of the crossbeams are respectively connected to the two uprights. The crossbeams are hung on the mounting slots of the support arm.
[0012] Optionally, the suspended basket further includes a weighted suspended basket, which includes a tray and a lifting rod. One end of the lifting rod has a ball head, and the other end of the lifting rod is connected to the tray. The ball head of the lifting rod is hung on the mounting groove of the support arm.
[0013] Optionally, the support arm is provided with a through slot extending from the end to the mounting groove, so that the lifting rod of the weight basket can pass through the support arm.
[0014] Optionally, the diameter of the ball head is greater than the width of the through groove.
[0015] Optionally, the children's balance toy also includes weight blocks, which can be mounted on the cargo basket or the weight basket. The weight blocks have notches extending from the center to the edge so that the weight blocks can be threaded onto the lifting rod.
[0016] Optionally, the limiting member includes a rubber plug head and a connecting rod, the connecting rod passing through the strip hole, the rubber plug head being disposed at both ends of the connecting rod, and the width of the rubber plug head being greater than the width of the strip hole.
[0017] Optionally, the children's balance toy also includes a pivot shaft that extends through the support arm along its thickness direction, and both ends of the pivot shaft are rotatably connected to the support.
[0018] The beneficial effects of the children's balance toy provided in this application are as follows:
[0019] The children's balance toy provided in this application includes a support, an arm, a limiting member, and a hanging basket. The support is placed on the working surface to provide a stable support structure. The arm is hinged to the support, allowing it to swing freely around the hinge point, thereby dynamically adjusting the balance. Both ends of the arm have mounting slots, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the hinge position and equidistant from the hinge point, ensuring the balance accurately reflects the difference in load on both sides when balanced. The arm also has at least two strip-shaped holes extending along its length, located on both sides of the hinge position, to provide a sliding path for the limiting member. The limiting member is slidably connected to the strip-shaped holes and can stop at a preset position, thereby limiting the swing angle of the arm. When the arm tilts to one side to a preset angle, the limiting member contacts the support and provides a bracing effect, effectively preventing the arm from tilting further and avoiding a gap between the arm and the support due to excessive tilt angle, thus reducing safety hazards for children. The basket can be hung on the mounting slot of the support arm, making it easy for children to place items to be weighed or counterweights for balance experiments. This balance toy simplifies the overall structure while ensuring functionality, reducing manufacturing costs and making it more suitable as an educational toy for children.

[0041] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0042] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this application provides a children's balance toy, including a support 1, a support arm 2, a limiting member 3, and a hanging basket. The support 1 is placed on a working surface to provide a stable support structure. The support arm 2 is hinged to the support 1, allowing it to swing freely around the hinge point, thereby dynamically adjusting the balance. Both ends of the support arm 2 are provided with mounting slots 21, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the hinge position and equidistant from the hinge point, ensuring that the balance accurately reflects the difference in load on both sides when in a balanced state. The support arm 2 also has at least two strip-shaped holes 22 extending along its length, located on both sides of the hinge position, to provide a sliding path for the limiting member 3. The limiting member 3 is slidably connected to the strip-shaped holes 22 and can stop at a preset position, thereby limiting the swing angle of the support arm 2. When the support arm 2 tilts to one side to a preset angle, the limiting member 3 contacts the support 1 and forms a supporting effect, effectively preventing the support arm 2 from tilting further and avoiding the formation of a gap between the support arm 2 and the support 1 due to excessive tilting angle, thus reducing safety hazards for children during operation. The basket can be hung on the hanging slot 21 of the support arm 2, making it convenient for children to place items to be weighed or counterweights for balance experiments. This balance toy simplifies the overall structure while ensuring functionality, reducing manufacturing costs and making it more suitable for use as an educational toy for children.
[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in a specific embodiment of this application, the hanging basket can be a cargo hanging basket 4. The cargo hanging basket 4 includes a cargo basket 41, uprights 42, and a crossbeam 43. The uprights 42 are vertically arranged on both sides of the cargo basket 41, forming a support structure; the crossbeam 43 is horizontally arranged, with its two ends fixedly connected to the upper parts of the uprights 42 on both sides, forming a stable suspension frame. The middle area of the crossbeam 43 cooperates with the hanging slot 21 of the support arm 2, enabling reliable hanging of the cargo hanging basket 4 on the support arm 2. This structure allows the cargo hanging basket 4 to maintain a stable suspension state when carrying items, while also facilitating children's loading and unloading operations. The connection method between the uprights 42 and the crossbeam 43 ensures the overall structural strength of the cargo hanging basket 4, enabling it to withstand a certain weight of items without easily deforming. The opening design of the cargo basket 41 facilitates observation of the internal items, helping children intuitively understand the principle of balance during play.
[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in a specific embodiment of this application, the hanging basket can further be a weight hanging basket 5, which includes a tray 51 and a lifting rod 52. One end of the lifting rod 52 is provided with a ball head 53, and the other end of the lifting rod 52 is vertically connected to the center of the tray 51. The cooperation between the ball head 53 and the mounting groove 21 ensures the flexible swing of the weight hanging basket 5 and prevents it from accidentally falling off during the swing. The tray 51 adopts a planar structure, which is convenient for placing standard weights or small counterweights. By increasing or decreasing the number of weights on the tray 51, the basic principle of mass balance can be observed and learned intuitively.
[0045] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in a specific embodiment of this application, the support arm 2 is provided with a through groove 23 extending from the end to the hanging groove 21, so that the lifting rod 52 of the weight basket 5 can pass smoothly through the internal space of the support arm 2, effectively avoiding mechanical interference that may occur between the support arm 2 and the lifting rod 52 during the swinging process, and ensuring that the weight basket 5 can swing freely without being restricted by the structure of the support arm 2.
[0046] In one specific embodiment of this application, the diameter of the ball head 53 is larger than the width of the through groove 23, so that the ball head 53 can be securely mounted in the mounting groove 21 of the support arm 2. This ensures that the weight basket 5 will not accidentally fall off the support arm 2 during normal use, while also preserving the necessary degree of freedom of movement, allowing the weight basket 5 to naturally adjust its posture as the support arm 2 swings.
[0047] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown in one specific embodiment of this application, the children's balance toy also includes a weight block 6. The weight block 6 can be selectively loaded into the carrying basket 41 of the carrying basket 4 or onto the tray 51 of the weight basket 5. The weight block 6 has a notch extending to the edge at its center, the width of which is adapted to the diameter of the hanging rod 52, so that the weight block 6 can be directly inserted into the hanging rod 52 of the weight basket 5 through the notch, thereby realizing the quick loading and unloading of the weight block 6, which makes it convenient for children to flexibly adjust the counterweight when conducting balance experiments.
[0048] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, in a specific embodiment of this application, the limiting member 3 includes a rubber plug head 31 and a connecting rod 32. The connecting rod 32 is disposed through the slot 22 of the support arm 2 and can slide freely along the length of the slot 22. The rubber plug head 31 is fixedly connected to both ends of the connecting rod 32, and its outer diameter is larger than the width of the slot 22, thereby forming a reliable limiting structure. The limiting member 3 can remain stable during sliding and prevent accidental dislodgement from the slot 22. The rubber plug head 31 is made of elastic material. When the support arm 2 is tilted to a preset angle, the rubber plug head 31 contacts the support 1 to generate a buffering effect, which can effectively limit the swing amplitude of the support arm 2 and reduce the noise generated by mechanical collision.
[0049] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in one specific embodiment of this application, the children's balance toy also includes a rotating shaft 7. The rotating shaft 7 is disposed through the thickness direction of the support arm 2, and its axis is perpendicular to the swing plane of the support arm 2. The two ends of the rotating shaft 7 are rotatably connected to the corresponding mounting parts of the support 1 through shaft hole fitting, forming the rotation center of the support arm 2. The support 1 is provided with shaft holes that fit with the two ends of the rotating shaft 7.
[0050] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
