Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toy technology, and in particular to a magnetic building block that can be freely assembled into fidget spinners and Rubik's Cubes. Background Technology
[0002] As a typical representative of the educational toy field, traditional interlocking building blocks consist of multiple building block units with protrusions and concave parts that can be freely interlocked and separated. Assembly is achieved through the precise interlocking of the protrusions and concave parts. These toys are very effective in cultivating users' creative thinking, but due to the limitations of the mechanical interlocking structure, the assembled results are mostly static shapes such as buildings, animals and plants, with relatively fixed functions and forms. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a magnetic building block that can be freely assembled into fidget spinners and Rubik's Cubes.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A magnetic building block that can be freely assembled into fidget spinners and Rubik's Cubes. The building block includes a first box with a magnet fixed inside and end caps fixed on the top and bottom sides of the first box. A rotating component includes a second box with a bearing inside and fixed plates fixed at the top and bottom ends of the second box. An upper rotating part is provided on the top of the upper fixed plate, and the upper rotating part includes an upper end cap. A rotating shaft is provided below the upper end cap, and the rotating shaft passes through the inner ring of the fixed plate and the bearing and is fixed to the lower rotating part. The lower rotating part is located below the lower fixed plate. There are gaps between the upper and lower rotating parts and their corresponding fixed plates.
[0005] In this utility model, the second box body includes a box body, a bearing mounting position is provided in the center of the box body, and ball bearings are rotatably provided at the four corners of the upper and lower bottom surfaces of the box body.
[0006] In this utility model, the fixing plate includes a plate body, and ball grooves are provided at the four corners of the upper or lower bottom surface of the plate body. A clamping ring passes through the plate body, and the ball grooves are in contact with the outer circular cross-section of the bearing.
[0007] In this invention, the magnet and the ball are attracted by magnetic force.
[0008] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: The magnetic building blocks of this application, through the combination design of magnetic assembly and rotating components, not only effectively solve the problems of difficult disassembly and easy wear of interlocking parts in traditional interlocking building blocks, but also break through the limitations of static assembly: the magnetic adsorption connection method greatly improves the flexibility of assembly and disassembly and reduces structural damage; while the introduction of rotating components gives the toy the possibility of dynamic play, allowing users to achieve the integration of static shape and dynamic function in free combination, further expanding the boundaries of creative expression and significantly enhancing the flexibility and creativity of the toy.

[0011] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0012] Reference Figure 1-8A magnetic building block that can be freely assembled into fidget spinners and Rubik's Cubes. The building block 1 includes a first box 101, with a magnet 102 fixed inside the first box 101 and end caps 103 fixed on the upper and lower sides of the first box 101. The rotating component 2 includes a second box 201, with a bearing 202 installed inside the second box 201 and fixing plates 203 fixed at the upper and lower ends of the second box 201. An upper rotating part 204 is provided on the top of the upper fixing plate 203. The upper rotating part 204 includes an upper end cap 204a. A rotating shaft 204b is provided below the upper end cap 204a. The rotating shaft 204b passes through the inner ring of the fixing plate 203 and the bearing 202 and is fixed to the lower rotating part 205. The lower rotating part 205 is located below the lower fixing plate 203. There are gaps between the upper rotating part 204 and the lower rotating part 205 and the corresponding fixing plates 203.
[0013] In this embodiment, the first box 101 serves as the main body, with built-in magnets 102 connecting the modules magnetically to enhance assembly flexibility. End caps 103 protect the internal structure and ensure connection stability. The rotating component 2 is centered on the second box 201, with embedded bearings 202 supporting low-friction rotation. A fixing plate 203 stabilizes the structure and positions the rotating component. The upper rotating part 204 is linked to the lower rotating part 205 via the upper end cap 204a and the rotating shaft 204b, passing through the fixing plate 203 and the inner ring of the bearing 202 to form a stable rotating shaft. The gap design reduces friction and improves rotation smoothness. This structural combination allows the building blocks 1 to be flexibly assembled into dynamic or static shapes such as fidget spinners or Rubik's Cubes, balancing durability and creative expression.
[0014] In this utility model, the second box body 201 includes a box body 201a, a bearing mounting position 201b is provided at the center of the box body 201a, and ball bearings 201c are rotatably provided at the four corners of the upper and lower bottom surfaces of the box body 201a.
[0015] In this embodiment, the second box 201 includes a box body 201a, a bearing mounting position 201b is provided at the center of the box body 201a, and ball bearings 201c are rotatably provided at the four corners of the upper and lower bottom surfaces of the box body 201a.
[0016] In this utility model, the fixing plate 203 includes a plate body 203a, and ball grooves 203c are provided at the four corners of the upper or lower bottom surface of the plate body 203a. A clamping ring 203b passes through the plate body 203a, and the ball grooves 203c are in contact with the outer circular cross-section of the bearing 202.
[0017] In this embodiment, the fixing plate 203, with the plate body 203a as its core, supports the overall structure of the rotating component 2. The ball bearing grooves 203c at the four corners of its upper or lower surface engage with the balls 201c, reducing friction during assembly or sliding and improving the smoothness of dynamic combinations such as a Rubik's Cube. The clamping ring 203b on the plate body 203a penetrates and tightly engages with the outer circular cross-section of the bearing 202, ensuring the bearing 202 is securely positioned and enhancing rotational stability and durability. This design optimizes the function of the fixing plate 203 in the rotating component 2, supporting dynamic gameplay and improving the smoothness and accuracy of the assembly experience.
[0018] In this invention, the magnet 102 and the ball 201c are attracted by magnetic force.
[0019] In this embodiment, the magnet 102 and the ball bearing 201c are magnetically attracted to form a tight connection, enhancing the stability of the connection between the building block 1 and the rotating component 2, and ensuring the stability of the assembled structure in dynamic rotation or complex combinations such as fidget spinners or Rubik's Cubes. This magnetic design not only facilitates quick alignment and assembly between modules, but also reduces wear and tear from traditional mechanical fittings, improving the flexibility and durability of the assembly, while supporting the realization of dynamic functions, enriching the creative ways to play with the toy and the user experience.
[0020] In use, users can freely assemble magnetic building blocks 1 to form shapes such as fidget spinners and Rubik's Cubes. Magnets 102 generate magnetic attraction, firmly connecting the first box 101 to the second box 201 or other modules. End caps 103 protect the structure and assist in alignment. The rotating component 2 works based on the low-friction rotation of bearing 202. The fixing plate 203 fixes the outer ring of bearing 202 through clamping rings 203b. The rotating shaft 204b connects the upper rotating part 204 and the lower rotating part 205, achieving smooth rotation. The ball bearings 201c and ball bearing grooves 203c cooperate to reduce assembly friction and improve sliding smoothness. The gap design ensures rotational flexibility. Users can easily switch between static shapes and dynamic functions by combining magnetic attraction and rotating component 2, creating diverse ways to play.
[0021] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
