Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toy track technology, and in particular to a modular track for children's amusement. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing variety of entertainment activities, people's demands for games and toys are also rising. Creative design, as an important way to improve the scientific literacy and technological innovation capabilities of teenagers, has received increasing attention. Among them, creative robots have attracted particular attention due to their strong appeal, rich knowledge content, and ability to cultivate hands-on skills, innovation, systems thinking, and teamwork. As an essential component of autonomous vehicles, the autonomous vehicle track can be said to set the corresponding rules for the programming of autonomous vehicles. The complexity of the autonomous vehicle track has a significant impact on the programming requirements of teenagers.
[0003] A search of existing Chinese patent technology reveals a device called "An Unmanned Vehicle Track" (publication number CN210992977U). This device features multiple different track areas that are not repetitive, effectively allowing teenagers to practice and develop innovative thinking while programming unmanned vehicles. Furthermore, the device's multiple different areas make it highly valuable for teaching in unmanned vehicle creative design competitions. However, in actual use, this device can only present a planar state, and the track cannot control the slope in three-dimensional space, resulting in a relatively limited track function. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to address the issue that the track can only present a planar state during use, cannot control the slope in three-dimensional space, and has relatively limited functionality. A modular track for children's play is provided, comprising: a base with a groove at its upper end; a spatial splicing mechanism, including a control component installed at the upper end of the base, the surface of which extends into the interior of the groove; wherein the spatial splicing mechanism includes a control component installed at the upper end of the base, the surface of which extends into the interior of the groove, and a splicing component at the upper end of the control component, the surface of which extends to the outer side of the base.
[0005] In one embodiment, the control component includes two sliding seats slidably connected to the upper end of the base. A slider is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sliding seat. A second support frame is fixedly connected to both ends of one side of the sliding seat, and a first support frame is fixedly connected to the end of the other side of the sliding seat.
[0006] In one embodiment, the splicing assembly includes two rotating shafts respectively rotatably connected between two second support frames and a first support frame. A rotating sleeve is rotatably connected to the surface of the rotating shaft, and a central frame is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating sleeve. Both ends of the rotating sleeve are provided with connecting collars rotatably connected to the surface of the rotating shaft.
[0007] In one embodiment, an inner sleeve is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slider, and a threaded shaft is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the inner sleeve.
[0008] In one embodiment, the inner wall of the inner sleeve on the other side is threaded to the surface of the threaded shaft, and the inner sleeve on the other side is located below the first support frame.
[0009] In one embodiment, an extension plate is fixedly connected between adjacent connecting collars, and two side baffles are fixedly connected to the upper end of the extension plate.
[0010] In one embodiment, the extension plate has an arc-shaped groove on its surface near the rotating sleeve, and the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove is slidably connected to the surface of the rotating sleeve.
[0011] Beneficial effects
[0012] The aforementioned modular track for children's amusement uses a threaded shaft that rotates inside the base. The second support frame does not shift, causing the lower end of the first support frame to be fitted inside the threaded shaft, which in turn drives the slider to slide on the inner wall of the groove. This allows the first support frame to move closer to or further away from the second support frame, thus enabling the track's tilt angle to be adjusted relatively flexibly according to usage requirements, allowing the modular track to meet various competition needs.
[0013] The device, through its splicing components, allows the surface of the central frame to align with the surface of the rotating sleeve and the arc groove, forming a continuous track path by matching the arc of the arc groove and the upper end of the extension plate. This avoids any impact on the track vehicles after the splicing is completed. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The following is combined Figures 1-4 This invention describes a modular track for children's playground.
[0027] In one embodiment, a modular race track for children's play includes: a base 1, with a groove 2 formed at the upper end of the base 1; and a spatial splicing mechanism 3, which includes a control component 31 installed at the upper end of the base 1, the surface of which extends into the interior of the groove 2; wherein the spatial splicing mechanism 3 includes a control component 31 installed at the upper end of the base 1, the surface of which extends into the interior of the groove 2, and a splicing component 32 provided at the upper end of the control component 31, the surface of which extends into the outer side of the base 1.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the control component 31 includes two sliding seats 311 slidably connected to the upper end of the base 1. A slider 314 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the sliding seat 311. A second support frame 313 is fixedly connected to both ends of one side of the sliding seat 311, and a first support frame 312 is fixedly connected to the end of the other side of the sliding seat 311. An inner sleeve 315 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slider 314. A threaded shaft 316 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one side of the inner sleeve 315, and the inner wall of the other side of the inner sleeve 315 is threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded shaft 316. The other side of the inner sleeve 315 is located below the first support frame 312.
[0029] In this embodiment, when the device is in use, it can rotate inside the base 1 via a threaded shaft 316. The threaded shaft 316 passes through the slide groove 2 and extends to the outside of the base 1. Since the slider 314 at the lower end of the second support frame 313 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 2, the second support frame 313 will not be displaced when the threaded shaft 316 rotates. As a result, the inner sleeve 315 at the lower end of the first support frame 312 drives the slider 314 to slide on the inner wall of the slide groove 2 under the action of the threaded shaft 316. At this time, the first support frame 312 moves closer to or further away from the second support frame 313, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the track.
[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the splicing assembly 32 includes two rotating shafts 321 that are rotatably connected between the two second support frames 313 and the first support frame 312 respectively. A rotating sleeve 322 is rotatably connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 321. A central frame 323 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating sleeve 322. Both ends of the rotating sleeve 322 are provided with connecting collars 324 that are rotatably connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 321. An extension plate 325 is fixedly connected between adjacent connecting collars 324. Two side baffles 327 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the extension plate 325. An arc-shaped groove 326 is opened on the surface of the extension plate 325 near the rotating sleeve 322. The inner wall of the arc-shaped groove 326 is slidably connected to the surface of the rotating sleeve 322.
[0031] In this embodiment, the two rotating shafts 321 move along with the first support frame 312 and the second support frame 313, causing the middle frame 323 to tilt. At this time, since the central axis of the rotating shaft 321 is the center of rotation, the rotating sleeve 322 cooperates with the arc groove 326, so that the surface of the middle frame 323 and the surface of the rotating sleeve 322 cooperate with the curvature of the arc groove 326 and the upper end of the extension plate 325 to form a continuous track path, avoiding the impact on the track vehicles after splicing and ensuring the track adjustment effect.
[0032] Working principle: The threaded shaft 316 rotates inside the base 1, passing through the slide groove 2 and extending to the outside of the base 1. Since the slider 314 at the lower end of the second support frame 313 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 2, the second support frame 313 will not be displaced when the threaded shaft 316 rotates. The inner sleeve 315 at the lower end of the first support frame 312 drives the slider 314 to slide on the inner wall of the slide groove 2 under the action of the threaded shaft 316. The tilt angle of the track is adjusted according to the competition requirements. The two rotating shafts 321 move with the first support frame 312 and the second support frame 313. The middle frame 323 begins to tilt. The central axis of the rotating shaft 321 is the center of rotation. The rotating sleeve 322 cooperates with the arc groove 326 so that the surface of the middle frame 323 and the surface of the rotating sleeve 322 cooperate with the curvature of the arc groove 326 and the upper end of the extension plate 325 to form a continuous track path, avoiding the impact on the track vehicles after splicing.
[0033] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0034] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the appended claims.
