Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following drawings denote similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it need not be further discussed in subsequent drawings.

[0048] wooden body

[0049] The wooden main body 1 is made of imported Nordic beech wood with a density of 0.68 g / cm³ and a moisture content controlled at 8%-10% to ensure structural stability. The back panel 100 and the horizontal bottom panel 101 are 15 mm thick, the side panels and the middle partition 104 are 12 mm thick, and the horizontal partition 105 is 10 mm thick. The wooden main body 1 is composed of the back panel 100, the horizontal bottom panel 101, the side panels (left side panel 102 and right side panel 103), the middle partition 104, and the horizontal partition 105. These components are interconnected and work together to form a stable and functionally defined spatial structure.

[0050] The back panel 100 is arranged perpendicular to the horizontal base panel 101. The two are tightly connected by mortise and tenon joints or environmentally friendly glue, forming a stable support structure for the entire wooden main body 1.

[0051] The left side panel 102 and the right side panel 103 are respectively installed on both sides of the back panel 100, perpendicularly connected to the back panel 100, forming a U-shaped basic frame. The side panels not only enhance the stability of the main structure, but also provide lateral support for the subsequent installation of the intermediate partition 104 and the horizontal partition 105. In this frame, the side panels serve to define the boundaries, clarifying the horizontal range of the functional areas.

[0052] A central partition 104 is positioned between the left side panel 102 and the right side panel 103, while a horizontal partition 105 is positioned inside the right side panel 103 and above the central partition 104, with the two being perpendicular to each other. The central partition 104 horizontally divides the space between the left and right side panels 103, while the horizontal partition 105 further divides the space vertically. The central partition 104 and the horizontal partition 105, together with the back panel 100, side panels, and horizontal bottom panel 101, separate four functional areas: a first storage area 2, a second storage area 3, a production area 4, and a receiving area 5. This structural design fully utilizes three-dimensional space, ensuring that each functional area is both independent and spatially interconnected, providing a reasonable operational layout for the ice cream cone simulation production process.

[0053] Functional area

[0054] The first storage area 2 and the second storage area 3 are the initial storage spaces for the simulated ice cream cone parts. Their positions and structural designs facilitate children's handling of the simulated ice cream cone skins 6 and scoops 7. The first storage area 2 is used to store the simulated ice cream cone skins 6. It is designed as an open, shallow groove structure, and the horizontal base plate 101 has spherical protrusions to accommodate the placement of the simulated ice cream cone skins 6. This design allows the simulated ice cream cone skins 6 to be clearly visible to children, who can easily pick them up or put them back, meeting the needs of children for convenient operation. The second storage area 3 is used to store the simulated ice cream cone scoops 7. To facilitate the placement of the simulated ice cream cone scoops 7, the second storage area 3 has arc-shaped grooves on the surface of the horizontal partition 105 to accommodate the placement of the simulated ice cream cone scoops 7.

[0055] Production area 4 is the key area for the entire toy to realize the function of producing and releasing the simulated ice cream cone ball 7. It is mainly composed of box 40, push block 42 and elastic element 45. The precise cooperation between the components realizes the controllable release of the ice cream cone ball.

[0056] The housing 40 is located in the production area 4 and is hollow inside, providing space for the movement of the pusher block 42. The housing 40 has a first hole 41 that runs vertically through it; this first hole 41 serves as a channel for simulating the entry and fall of the ice cream cone 7. The diameter of the first hole 41 is precisely designed to be slightly larger than the diameter of the simulated ice cream cone 7, ensuring that the ice cream cone can pass smoothly while preventing it from wobbling inside the hole, thus ensuring stability during the fall.

[0057] A push block 42 is movably arranged inside the housing 40, and a second hole 43 is arranged vertically through the push block 42. A button 44 is connected to the front of the push block 42, and an elastic element 45 is installed on the rear. A mounting hole for the elastic element 45 is opened on the rear surface of the push block 42. One end of the elastic element 45 is arranged in the mounting hole and connected to the inner wall of the mounting hole, while the other end extends horizontally and connects to or abuts against the inner wall of the housing 40. The button 44 protrudes from the front surface of the housing 40 for easy pressing by a child. When a child presses the button 44, the push block 42 moves backward within the housing 40. Before the pusher block 42 moves, the second hole 43 and the first hole 41 are interleaved, preventing the ice cream cone from falling inside the housing 40. As the pusher block 42 moves, the second hole 43 gradually aligns with the first hole 41. When they are fully aligned, the ice cream cone, due to gravity, falls through the channel formed by the first hole 41 and the second hole 43, completing one ice cream cone throwing operation. The elastic element 45 (such as a spring) plays a crucial role in this process. When the child releases the button 44, the elastic element 45 generates an elastic restoring force, pushing the pusher block 42 forward, causing the second hole 43 to interleave with the first hole 41 again, returning to the initial state and preparing for the next ice cream cone throwing. This design simulates the action of adding ice cream scoops during the real ice cream cone making process. Children control the ice cream cone's fall by pressing the button 44, enhancing the game's interactivity and fun, while also exercising children's fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.

[0058] The main structure of the receiving area 5 is the insert plate 50, which is horizontally inserted between the left side plate 102 and the middle partition plate 104. The insert plate 50 has a support slot 51. The support slot 51 provides a placement position for the simulated ice cream cone skin 6, and its width and depth are precisely designed according to the size of the simulated ice cream cone skin 6. When a child takes the simulated ice cream cone skin 6 from the first storage area 2, they can place it on the support slot 51. At this time, the ice cream cone skin is at a suitable height and position, perfectly catching the simulated ice cream ball 7 falling from the production area 4. The insert plate 50 adopts a detachable design, which has several advantages. On the one hand, it facilitates cleaning of the insert plate 50 during toy use, maintaining the toy's hygiene; on the other hand, when the insert plate 50 is damaged, it can be easily replaced, extending the toy's lifespan. Through the design of the catching area 5, children can intuitively see the ice cream ball being accurately placed on the ice cream cone skin, simulating the scene of a real ice cream cone being made, further enhancing the realism and sense of accomplishment of the game. Furthermore, by placing the simulated ice cream cone skin 6 and catching the simulated ice cream ball 7, they can develop their spatial judgment ability.

[0059] Simulated ice cream cone

[0060] The simulated ice cream cone skin 6 has a conical main body 60, which highly replicates the appearance of a real ice cream cone skin. A hemispherical groove 61 is formed on the surface of the larger diameter end of the skin, the size of which closely matches the size of the simulated ice cream cone ball 7. When the simulated ice cream cone ball 7 falls from the production area 4 onto the ice cream cone skin in the receiving area 5, it fits perfectly into the hemispherical groove 61. Because the groove and the ice cream cone ball are appropriately sized, the ball can be placed stably on the skin and will not easily roll off. This design not only enhances the realism of the simulated ice cream cone, giving children a more realistic experience during operation, but also cultivates children's cognitive ability regarding the matching of object shapes and sizes to a certain extent. As children place the ice cream cone ball into the groove of the skin, they need to observe and judge the fit between the ball and the groove, which helps to develop their observation and spatial awareness.

[0061] The simulated ice cream cone ball 7 is composed of two hemispheres joined together and secured with environmentally friendly glue. This joining structure features a unique design consideration. The joining surfaces of the two hemispheres are respectively equipped with joining protrusions 72 and joining grooves 73. The interplay of these protrusions and grooves increases the contact area between the two hemispheres, providing a larger bonding surface for the environmentally friendly glue and thus improving the strength of the joint. In actual use, even if children grasp or roll the ice cream cone ball during operation, the joined hemispheres are not easily separated, ensuring the integrity of the ice cream cone ball throughout the simulation process.

[0062] Magnet 8 consists of several neodymium iron boron strong magnets evenly distributed at the bottom of the hemispherical groove 61. Corresponding slots can be opened at the bottom of the hemispherical groove 61 for installing magnet 8. After magnet 8 is installed, a wooden cover can be covered at the opening of the slot and fixed with environmentally friendly glue. The magnetic field strength is ≥300mT. The surface of the hollow steel ball 9 is nickel-plated (plating thickness 3μm), and the attraction force with magnet 8 is ≥0.5N, ensuring that the displacement deviation of the ice cream cone ball after placement is ≤2mm. The magnetic attraction system formed by magnet 8 and hollow steel ball 9 makes the simulated ice cream cone ball 7 and simulated ice cream cone skin 6 stably combined.

[0063] The embodiments of this application have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these forms are within the protection scope of this application.
