[0017] Appendix Figure 4 For the appendix Figure 3 A magnified view of part A in the middle. Detailed Implementation

[0018] Example 1, referring to Figure 1-3 A biomimetic squid toy includes a main body 1 and multiple rotating tentacles 2 disposed at one end of the head of the main body 1. The rotating tentacles 2 are spiral-shaped and rotatably connected to the main body 1. A rotation drive mechanism 3 is disposed inside the main body 1 and is drivenly connected to the rotating tentacles 2.

[0019] In this embodiment, the rotation drive mechanism 3 is used to drive the rotating tentacles 2 to rotate. Since the rotating tentacles 2 are spiral-shaped, when they rotate, they present a twisting effect, thereby effectively improving the realism of the simulated squid toy. To more closely resemble the shape of a squid in nature, there are eight rotating tentacles 2, evenly distributed at one end of the head of the main body 1. The rotation drive mechanism 3 is an electric rotation drive mechanism, including a drive motor 31 and a transmission gear set 32. The drive motor 31 is connected to the multiple rotating tentacles 2 via the transmission gear set 32. The last output gear of the transmission gear set 32 ​​is located at the center of the inner side of one end of the head of the main body 1. Each of the multiple rotating tentacles 2 has a gear at its inner end of the main body 1, and these gears mesh with the last output gear of the transmission gear set 32, allowing the rotation drive mechanism 3 to simultaneously drive the multiple rotating tentacles 2 to rotate. In addition, a clutch gear 33 is provided in the transmission gear set 32. The clutch gear 33 includes an upper gear 331 and a lower gear 332. The upper gear 331 and the lower gear 332 are concentrically arranged. The upper gear 331 has a locking groove 333 on its side, and the lower gear 332 has an elastic locking part 334 on its side that engages with the locking groove 333. When the torque on the clutch gear 33 exceeds its upper limit, the elastic locking part 334 of the lower gear 332 will rotate relative to the upper gear 331 in the locking groove 333. Thus, when the rotating contact 2 encounters greater resistance, the upper gear 331 and the lower gear 332 of the clutch gear 33 can rotate relative to each other, thereby avoiding damage to the drive motor 31 and the transmission gear set 32. When the torque on the clutch gear 33 is within its tolerance range, the upper gear 331 and the lower gear 332 remain relatively stationary and perform normal transmission. Meanwhile, to enhance the playability of the simulated squid toy, several lighting components 4 are installed at one end of the head of the main body 1. A speaker component 5 is also installed inside the main body 1. A control circuit board is also installed inside the main body 1 (the control circuit board is located below the translation drive block in the attached drawing, and is therefore not shown in the drawing; this is just one possible arrangement of the control circuit board, and its position can be adjusted according to requirements without any particular limitation). The control circuit board is electrically connected to the lighting components 4, the speaker component 5, and the drive motor 31. The control circuit board can not only control the rotating tentacle 2 by controlling the drive motor 31, but also control the lighting components 4 to emit light and the speaker component 5 to emit sound, thereby improving the playability of the simulated squid toy. The lighting components 4 can be LED lights, and an opening is provided at one end of the head of the main body 1 to allow the light emitted by the LED lights to pass through.

[0020] In a further embodiment, a movable roller 6 is provided below the main body 1, and the rotation drive mechanism 3 inside the main body 1 is simultaneously driven and connected to the movable roller 6. By using one gear in the transmission gear set 32 ​​of the rotation drive mechanism 3 to mesh with the gear provided on the rotating shaft 51 of the movable roller 6, the rotation drive mechanism 3 can drive the movable roller 6 to rotate while driving the rotating tentacle 2 to rotate, thereby driving the main body 1 to move.

[0021] In addition, a translation drive block 7 is slidably arranged inside the main body 1, and an eccentric drive wheel 62 is provided on the rotating shaft 61 of the moving roller 6. A drive groove 70 is provided on the translation drive block 7 to cooperate with and connect with the eccentric drive wheel 62. When the moving roller 6 rotates, the eccentric drive wheel 62 swings back and forth, thereby driving the translation drive block 7 to move back and forth through the drive groove 70.

[0022] To further enhance the realism of the squid toy, the main body 1 has arms 8 on both sides, which are rotatably connected to the main body 1. A first drive groove 71 on the translation drive block 7 is connected to the arms 8, driving the arms 8 to swing back and forth when the translation drive block 7 moves back and forth. The first drive groove 71 is parallel to the horizontal plane, allowing the arms 8 to swing back and forth. Additionally, a fin-like part 9 can be located at the rear end of the main body 1, rotatably connected to the main body 1. A second drive groove 72 on the translation drive block 7 is connected to the fin-like part 9, driving the fin-like part 9 to swing up and down when the translation drive block 7 moves back and forth. The second drive groove 72 is parallel to the vertical plane and inclined in the front-back direction, allowing the fin-like part 9 to swing up and down when the translation drive block 7 moves back and forth. This further enhances the playability and realism of the squid toy.

[0023] Of course, the above are only preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of application of this utility model. Therefore, any equivalent changes made to the principle of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
