Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet toy ball technology, and in particular to an intelligent electric pet toy ball. Background Technology

[0002] The Smart Electric Pet Toy Ball is an innovative pet product that integrates electric drive, intelligent sensing, and fun interaction. Its built-in electric drive device allows the toy ball to move autonomously, continuously stimulating the pet's chasing instinct. Equipped with intelligent sensing technology and AI algorithms, it can accurately identify the pet's touching, approaching, and other behaviors, and provide real-time dynamic feedback such as acceleration, turning, and pausing, allowing the pet to achieve a dual experience of exercise and intellectual stimulation in a fun chase.

[0003] Large pet dogs often habitually hold toy balls in their mouths when chasing them. When a dog does not respond to its owner's command, it may continue to hold onto the toy ball tightly and refuse to let go, making it difficult for the owner to retrieve it safely. Forcibly taking the ball away can not only damage the dog's oral mucosa, teeth, or gums, but also cause stress reactions due to tension and fear, resulting in barking, biting, and other aggressive behaviors, thus increasing the risk of injury to both the owner and the pet. Such scenarios not only reduce the fun of interaction but may also have a potential impact on the close relationship between the owner and the pet. Therefore, a smart electric pet toy ball is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0031] Example 1

[0032] Reference Figures 1-4 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides an intelligent electric pet toy ball. When a pet dog keeps holding the toy ball tightly, an airflow is sprayed towards its mouth to stimulate the pet dog to instinctively let go through non-contact stimulation. It includes: a toy ball shell 100, an intelligent drive module 200 and an air jet module 300.

[0033] The surface of the toy ball shell 100 has multiple air vents.

[0034] The intelligent drive module 200 disposed inside the toy ball shell 100 includes a gate-shaped bracket 201 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the toy ball shell 100, a battery 202 fixedly connected to the top of the gate-shaped bracket 201, a control chip 203 fixedly connected to the top of the battery 202, and the intelligent drive module 200 also includes a drive unit 204 for driving the toy ball shell 100 to move.

[0035] The jet module 300 disposed inside the toy ball shell 100 includes a miniature air pump 301 fixedly connected inside the toy ball shell 100, and the jet module 300 also includes an air supply section 302 for multi-directional air intake of the miniature air pump 301.

[0036] The battery 202 supplies power to the intelligent drive module 200 and the jet module 300. The control chip 203, as the core controller, controls the operation of the drive unit 204 and the jet module 300. When a pet approaches or touches the toy ball shell 100, the control chip 203 drives the drive unit 204 to start, causing the toy ball shell 100 to generate dynamic feedback such as acceleration and turning, simulating random movement trajectory, stimulating the pet's interest in chasing, and realizing intelligent interaction. When the pet dog holds the toy ball shell 100 tightly and refuses to let go, the control chip 203 identifies the state through a sensor or through remote control operation by the user, thereby activating the jet module 300. The micro air pump 301 draws in air from multiple directions through the air supply unit 302, and then the air is released into the toy ball shell 100 and sprayed directionally into the pet dog's mouth through the air outlet on the surface of the toy ball shell 100. The airflow stimulates the sensitive area of ​​the pet dog's mouth, prompting it to instinctively let go, avoiding injury to the pet caused by brute force to snatch the ball.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] Reference Figure 1 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the previous embodiment, the surface of the toy ball shell 100 is fixedly connected with a plurality of silicone petals 101 arranged in a ring array. The silicone petals 101 and the air vents on the surface of the toy ball shell 100 are staggered.

[0039] The silicone flaps 101 on the surface of the toy ball shell 100 can cushion the impact of pets chewing with elastic material, protect the internal components of the toy ball shell 100, and reduce the direct collision between the pet dog's mouth and the hard ball shell, thus reducing the risk of tooth and gum damage.

[0040] In addition, a U-shaped silicone ring 102 is fixedly connected to the surface of the toy ball shell 100. The U-shaped silicone ring 102 has a certain degree of flexibility, which can avoid damage to teeth and gums. A traction rope 103 is fixedly connected to the surface of the U-shaped silicone ring 102.

[0041] The leash 103 can be actively used to guide pets in chasing training. It enhances interactivity by lifting or swinging. When the toy ball is taken to a hidden place, it can be quickly located and easily retrieved. When the pet holds the ball tightly and refuses to let go, it can be used in conjunction with the airflow stimulation of the jet module 300, while applying a gentle pull through the leash 103 to help safely retrieve the toy ball.

[0042] Example 3

[0043] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 This is the third embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the previous embodiment, the control chip 203 integrates, but is not limited to, a motion sensor, a wireless communication module, and an intelligent voice module. The control chip 203 operates based on sensor data to control the drive unit 204 and the jet module 300.

[0044] The control chip 203 can use AI algorithms and motion sensors to capture real-time behavioral data such as pets approaching, touching, and biting the toy ball shell 100. The wireless communication module supports connection with mobile phones or remote controls. Users can set the movement mode of the toy ball shell 100 and adjust parameters such as the jet intensity. The intelligent voice module can play sounds that attract pets, such as birdsong and bell sounds, to enhance the pet's interactive interest. Since the control chip 203 is a commonly used device and belongs to existing mature technology, its specific circuit structure will not be described in detail here.

[0045] In addition, the drive unit 204 includes two drive motors 204a fixedly installed on the top of the portal bracket 201, and the output ends of the two drive motors 204a are fixedly connected to an eccentric disk 204b.

[0046] Two drive motors 204a are symmetrically distributed. When the control chip 203 issues a motion command, the drive motors 204a start to run, driving the eccentric disk 204b fixedly connected to it to rotate at high speed. During the rotation, the eccentric disk 204b generates periodic centrifugal force. This centrifugal force acts on the toy ball shell 100, causing it to vibrate and roll. The two drive motors 204a can independently control their speed and direction. By adjusting the difference in operation between the two motors through the control chip 203, the toy ball can achieve diverse motion trajectories such as forward, backward, left turn, right turn, and spin.

[0047] Example 4

[0048] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 This is the fourth embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the previous embodiment, the air supply unit 302 includes a connecting pipe 302a that is fixedly connected to the air inlet of the micro air pump 301. The end of the connecting pipe 302a is fixedly connected to a square pipe 302b. The wall of the square pipe 302b is fixedly connected to multiple air inlet pipes 302c. The end of each air inlet pipe 302c penetrates the toy ball shell 100.

[0049] The end of the air intake pipe 302c can be filled with a filter material such as a sponge to intercept liquids such as pet saliva from entering the pipe. After air is drawn into the square pipe 302b through the air intake pipe 302c, it enters the micro air pump 301 through the connecting pipe 302a. The compressed air is released from the nozzle into the inside of the toy ball shell 100, and then sprayed out in a direction through multiple air outlets on the surface of the toy ball shell 100 to stimulate the sensitive areas of the pet dog's mouth and cause it to instinctively release its mouth.

[0050] Each air intake pipe 302c is equidistantly distributed on the square pipe 302b, and the end of each air intake pipe 302c is spherically cut and fits the outer wall of the toy shell 100.

[0051] The end of the air intake pipe 302c adopts a spherical cut design, making it flush with the outer surface of the spherical shell, avoiding the protruding structure from affecting the smooth rolling of the sphere. Multiple air intake pipes 302c are distributed in different directions, which can effectively prevent the pet's oral mucosa from blocking a single air intake channel and ensure the continuity of air intake.

[0052] In addition, the outlet of the micro air pump 301 is fixedly connected to an air supply pipe 303, and the end of the air supply pipe 303 is fixedly connected to a hollow ball 304, and the surface of the hollow ball 304 is provided with multiple through holes.

[0053] The air pump 301 delivers air to the hollow sphere 304 through the air supply pipe 303. The air inside the hollow sphere 304 is ejected through its own through hole. The hollow sphere 304 is close to the middle of the toy shell 100. The hollow sphere 304 can distribute the air more evenly to each air outlet of the toy shell 100, ensuring that the intensity of the ejected airflow is as consistent as possible, and avoiding the impact caused by excessive local air pressure.

[0054] During use, when a pet approaches or touches the toy ball shell 100, the control chip 203 drives the two symmetrically distributed drive motors 204a of the drive unit 204 to operate, which in turn drives the eccentric disk 204b to generate centrifugal force, causing the ball shell to accelerate, turn, and move, simulating random trajectories to stimulate the pet's interest in chasing. The silicone flap 101 can protect the internal components of the toy ball shell 100 and reduce the direct collision between the pet dog's mouth and the hard ball shell, reducing the risk of tooth and gum damage. The leash 103 can be used to actively guide the pet in chasing training, and the interaction can be enhanced by lifting or swinging.

[0055] When the pet holds the ball tightly and refuses to let go, the control chip 203 activates the jet module 300. The micro air pump 301 draws in air through the multiple air intake pipes 302c of the air supply unit 302. After being compressed by the micro air pump 301, the air is delivered to the hollow ball 304 through the air delivery pipe 303. Then, the air inside the hollow ball 304 is released into the toy ball shell 100. Finally, the air inside the toy ball shell 100 is sprayed directionally from the air outlet of the ball shell to the pet's mouth to stimulate the sensitive area and make the pet let go.

[0056] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
