Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toy technology, and more particularly to a spark sword toy. Background Technology

[0002] Among the many cold weapons in Chinese history, knives and swords have always been popular. In modern society, traditional swords have gradually evolved into anime and toy swords. Currently, most sword toys on the market have a light-up function, and some even have scabbards to protect the sword from damage, such as the portable intelligent light-up sword prop disclosed in Chinese utility model patent CN223127238U. Most existing sword toys are still traditional toys; after the sword is drawn from its scabbard, a circuit switch controls a light-emitting element to illuminate the sword for play, resulting in a lack of fun and novelty. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a spark sword toy that, based on traditional sword playing, generates sparks when the blade is inserted into and / or withdrawn from the sheath, increasing the fun and novelty of the game.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a spark sword toy, including a blade and a scabbard. The blade is pluggably connected to the scabbard. It also includes a spark assembly mounted on the scabbard. The spark assembly includes a contact wheel, a friction wheel, a gear set connecting the contact wheel and the friction wheel, and a flint corresponding to the friction wheel. The contact wheel has an anti-slip portion exposed on the movement path of the blade, which can contact the blade. The friction wheel has a friction portion that contacts the flint. When the blade moves within the scabbard, the contact wheel rotates under the push of the blade and drives the friction wheel to rotate via the gear set, causing the friction portion to rub against the flint to generate sparks.

[0005] As a preferred embodiment, the anti-slip part has high friction and is detachably fixed to the wheel surface of the contact wheel, or the anti-slip part is integrally formed on the wheel surface of the contact wheel.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment, the friction part is one or more of the following: a rough friction surface, a friction plate, and sandpaper.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the contact wheel includes a first rotating wheel and a first gear. The first rotating wheel includes a detachably connected ring body and a housing. The inner ring of the ring body is provided with a connecting hole, and the outer ring is provided with the anti-slip part. There are two housings, which pass through the connecting hole and are fixed on both sides of the ring body. A first slot is formed between the two housings. The first gear has a first insert that is adapted to the shape of the first slot. The first insert can be inserted and circumferentially fixed in the first slot.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the ring body is made of silicone or rubber material, and the outer surface of the ring body is provided with a plurality of spaced ridges to form the anti-slip part. The inner ring of the ring body is provided with four connecting holes along the circumference, and each connecting hole is a through hole structure.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the outer shell is made of a rigid material and has a groove, two insertion holes, and two insertion blocks. The groove is located at the axis of the outer shell and its outer wall protrudes to one side. The two insertion holes and the two insertion blocks are distributed at intervals on the outside of the groove. One of the insertion blocks of the outer shell can be inserted through the connecting hole and fixed into the insertion hole of the other outer shell. At this time, the grooves of the two outer shells are inserted into the ring body and connected to form the first slot.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the friction wheel includes a second rotating wheel and a second gear. The second rotating wheel is provided with a second slot and the friction part is provided on the side of the second rotating wheel facing the flint. The second gear has a second insert that is adapted to the shape of the second slot. The second insert can be inserted and circumferentially fixed in the second slot.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the sheath is provided with a receiving cavity for accommodating the blade and a mounting cavity for mounting the spark assembly. The mounting cavity has a first opening and a second opening on its wall. The first opening corresponds to the contact wheel and connects the mounting cavity and the receiving cavity, while the second opening corresponds to the friction wheel and connects the mounting cavity and the outside.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the flint is fixedly connected to the scabbard via a fixing tube assembly. The fixing tube assembly includes a fixing tube and a fixing cap. The fixing tube is fixed to the scabbard in a direction perpendicular to the friction part. The fixing tube is a through structure and the flint is connected inside it. The fixing cap is pluggably connected to the fixing tube and is placed outside the scabbard. A spring is connected between the bottom wall of the fixing cap and the flint. The spring is used to push the flint to move and contact the friction part.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the spark assembly further includes a mounting box for mounting the contact wheel, the friction wheel, the gear set, and the flint. The mounting box is repositionably and oscillatingly connected to the mounting cavity via an elastic element. The mounting box has a first window and a second window. The first window is configured to correspond to the first opening so that the anti-slip part can be exposed on the movement path of the blade. The second window is configured to correspond to the second opening so that the sparks generated by the friction between the friction part and the flint can be splashed to the outside.

[0014] Therefore, based on the technical means of this utility model, the effects that this utility model can achieve are briefly described as follows: The spark sword toy provided by this utility model, by setting a spark component on the scabbard, allows the blade to contact and connect with the anti-slip part of the contact wheel when the blade is inserted into and / or withdrawn from the scabbard. Thus, when the blade moves, it can push the contact wheel to rotate, and the contact wheel, through a gear set, drives the friction wheel to rotate, so that the friction part can rub against the flint to generate sparks. In summary, the spark sword toy provided by this utility model can generate sparks when the blade is inserted into and / or withdrawn from the scabbard, and the dazzling sparks can be viewed without the need for an additional trigger switch structure, making it easy to operate; moreover, the anti-slip part of the contact wheel can also confine the blade inside the scabbard, preventing the blade from falling out of the scabbard, eliminating the need for an additional blade confinement and ejection structure, making the overall structure of the toy sword simple and compact, which can greatly increase the practicality of the sword toy as well as its fun and visual appeal during use.

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 This embodiment provides a spark sword toy, including a blade 100 and a sheath 200, and also includes a spark assembly 300 mounted on the sheath 200. The blade 100 includes a connected blade body 110 and a handle 120. The blade 100 contains a light-emitting circuit that enables the blade body 110 to emit light. The connection composition of the light-emitting circuit and its arrangement on the blade 100 are disclosed in the prior art and will not be described in detail here. The blade body 110 is pluggable into the sheath 200, which protects the blade body 110 from wear and scratches, and also enhances the aesthetics and visual appeal of the blade body 110. In other embodiments of this invention, depending on design requirements, the blade body 100 may also include other special effects devices such as a spray device. Similarly, the blade body 100 may not contain a light-emitting circuit or other such devices.

[0030] In this embodiment, the sheath 200 is provided with a receiving cavity 210 for accommodating the blade 110 and a mounting cavity 220 for mounting the spark assembly 300. This arrangement facilitates the spark assembly 300's ability to swing and reposition itself within the sheath 200. The mounting cavity 220 has a first opening 221 and a second opening 222 on its wall. The first opening 221 corresponds to the contact wheel of the spark assembly 300 and connects the mounting cavity 210 and the receiving cavity 220. The second opening 222 corresponds to the friction wheel of the spark assembly 300 and connects the mounting cavity 220 to the outside. A positioning seat 223 is also provided on the inner wall of the mounting cavity 220 for contacting the elastic element connecting the spark assembly 300. It is understood that a positioning block 230 protrudes from the outer wall of the sheath 200. The positioning block 230 is a through structure used to position the fixing tube for mounting the spark assembly 300, ensuring the fixing tube is securely fixed to the sheath 200. In other embodiments of this utility model, the sheath 200 may have only one inner cavity, which can accommodate the blade 110 and install the spark assembly 300. In this case, the spark assembly 300 can be installed in the inner cavity in a fixed and immovable manner, and the positioning seat 223 may not be provided in the inner cavity. At the same time, according to design requirements, the positioning block 230 can be replaced by a through hole or groove structure extending inward along the outer wall of the sheath 200.

[0031] In this embodiment, the spark assembly 300 includes a mounting box 310 and a contact wheel 320, a friction wheel 330, a gear set 340, and a flint 350, which are respectively fixedly installed in the mounting box 310. The mounting box 310 is composed of two shells that are fixed by a snap-fit ​​structure, an insertion structure, a threaded fixing structure, etc. One end of the mounting box 310 is adapted to be snapped into the mounting cavity 220, and the outer wall of the other end of the mounting box 310 extends towards the positioning seat 223 and is provided with a connecting arm 311. An elastic member 370 is sleeved on the connecting arm 311, and the end of the elastic member 370 abuts against the bottom wall of the positioning seat 223, so as to allow the mounting box 310 to be repositioned and oscillatingly connected to the mounting cavity 220. Compared to the connection method of fixing the mounting box 310 to the scabbard 200, the resettable swing mounting box 310 can adjust the swing angle in real time according to the wear of the contact wheel 320, so that the contact wheel 320 can always maintain contact with the blade 110 and cooperate with the cavity wall of the receiving cavity 210 to clamp and fix the blade 110 in the scabbard 100. At the same time, the design of the resettable swing mounting box 310 can also help reduce the wear damage caused by direct contact between the contact wheel 320 and the blade 110 during the insertion of the blade 110 into the scabbard 200, and improve the service life of the contact wheel 320 and the toy sword as a whole. It should be noted that the mounting box 310 is also provided with a first window 312 and a second window 313. The first window 312 is provided corresponding to the first opening 221 so that the anti-slip part of the contact wheel 320 can be exposed on the movement path of the blade 110. The second window 313 is provided corresponding to the second opening 222 so that the sparks generated by the friction between the friction part of the friction wheel 330 and the flint 350 can be splashed to the outside. In other embodiments of this utility model, the spark assembly 300 may not have a mounting box 310, and the components of the spark assembly 300 can be directly mounted on the sheath 200.

[0032] In this embodiment, the contact wheel 320 includes a first rotating wheel 321 and a first gear 322. The first rotating wheel 321 has an anti-slip portion 3210 exposed on the movement path of the blade 110, which can contact and connect with the blade 110. The first gear 322 is used to drive the contact wheel 320 into a gear set 340. The first rotating wheel 321 and the first gear 322 are detachably connected to facilitate production assembly, reduce production costs, and facilitate changing the transmission ratio between the contact wheel 320 and the gear set 340. It should be noted that the anti-slip portion 3210 has high friction. "High friction" refers to the value or range of friction that, after contacting the blade 110, allows the blade 110 to move and drive the contact wheel to rotate. The anti-slip part 3210 can be detachably fixed to the surface of the contact wheel 320, or the anti-slip part 3210 can be integrally formed on the surface of the contact wheel 320. The materials used to make the anti-slip part 3210 include, but are not limited to, rubber, silicone, and adhesive tape. In other embodiments of this utility model, the contact wheel 320 can be a non-detachable fixed structure, in which case the contact wheel 320 still has the anti-slip part 3210 and the gear part that meshes with the gear set 340.

[0033] In this embodiment, the first rotating wheel 321 includes a detachably connected ring 3211 and a housing 3212. This arrangement facilitates production assembly, reduces production costs, and also helps in the convenient replacement of severely worn rings 3211, improving usability. The ring 3211 is made of silicone (or rubber) material. Multiple spaced ridges are provided on the outer surface of the ring 3211 to form anti-slip portions 3210. The inner ring of the ring 3211 has four circumferentially arranged connecting holes 3213. Each connecting hole 3213 is a through-hole structure, meaning that the inner ring of the ring 3211 has a connecting hole 3213, and its outer ring has an anti-slip portion 3210. Two housings 3212 are provided, each passing through a connecting hole 3213 and fixed to both sides of the ring 3211, protecting the ring 3211 from damage. A first slot 3214 is constructed between the two outer shells 3212. Specifically, the outer shell 3212 is made of a rigid material (such as plastic, metal, wood, etc.). The outer shell 3212 has a raised groove 3215, two insertion holes 3216, and two insertion blocks 3217. The raised groove 3215 is located at the axis of the outer shell 3212, and its outer wall protrudes to one side. The two insertion holes 3216 and two insertion blocks 3217 are spaced apart on the outside of the raised groove 3215. The insertion block of one outer shell 3212 can pass through the connecting hole 3213 and be inserted into the insertion hole of the other outer shell 3212, allowing the two outer shells 3212 to be inserted and fixed on the outside of the ring body 3211. At this time, the raised grooves of the two outer shells 3212 are inserted into the ring body 3211, and the two are connected to form the first slot 3214. In other embodiments of this utility model, the first rotating wheel 321 can be an integral structure.

[0034] The first gear 322 has a first insert 3221 that is adapted to the shape of the first slot 3214, and the first insert 3221 can be inserted into and circumferentially fixed in the first slot 3214.

[0035] In this embodiment, the friction wheel 330 includes a second rotating wheel 331 and a second gear 332. The second rotating wheel 331 has a friction portion 3310 that contacts and connects with the flint 350, and the second gear 332 is used to mesh the friction wheel 330 with the gear set 340. The second rotating wheel 331 and the second gear 332 are detachably connected to facilitate production assembly, reduce production costs, and allow for convenient changes to the transmission ratio between the friction wheel 330 and the gear set 340. It should be noted that the friction portion 3310 can be one or more of a rough friction surface, a friction plate, or sandpaper. In other embodiments of this invention, the friction wheel 330 may be a non-detachable fixed structure, in which case the friction wheel 330 still has the friction portion 3310 and the gear portion meshing with the gear set 340.

[0036] The second rotating wheel 331 is provided with a second slot 3311 and a friction part 3310 is provided on the side of the second rotating wheel 331 facing the flint 350. The second gear 332 has a second insert 3321 that is adapted to the shape of the second slot 3311, and the second insert 3321 can be inserted and circumferentially fixed in the second slot 331.

[0037] In this embodiment, the gear set 340 consists of multiple gears meshing sequentially. The gear set 340 drives the contact wheel 320 and the friction wheel 330, and the transmission ratio among the three is less than one, enabling the contact wheel 320 to drive the friction wheel 330 to rotate faster via the gear set 340. To prolong the rotation time of the friction wheel 330 and continuously generate sparks, in other embodiments of this invention, a flywheel may be coaxially fixed on the second rotating wheel 331. To generate sparks during the insertion or withdrawal of the blade 110 from the sheath 200, in other embodiments of this invention, the gear set 340 may include a gear capable of moving under force. This gear only moves under force to mesh with other gears when the blade 110 is inserted or withdrawn from the sheath 200, thereby driving the friction wheel 330 to rotate and generate sparks through friction with the flint 350.

[0038] The flint 350 is fixedly connected to the sheath 200 via a fixing tube assembly 360. In this embodiment, the fixing tube assembly 360 includes a fixing tube 361 and a fixing cap 362. The fixing tube 361 is fixed to the sheath 200 in a direction perpendicular to the friction part 3310. Specifically, the fixing tube 361 is inserted and fixed to the positioning block 230 and the mounting box 310. The fixing tube 361 is a through structure and the flint 350 is connected inside it. The fixing cap 362 is pluggably connected to the fixing tube 361 (and the positioning block 230) and is externally positioned on the sheath 200. A spring (not shown) is connected between the bottom wall of the fixing cap 362 and the flint 350. The spring is used to push the flint 350 to move and contact the friction part 3310. This arrangement facilitates quick replacement of the flint 350, as the flint 350 can move in and out of the fixing tube 361 by pulling out the fixing cap 362. In other embodiments of this utility model, the fixing tube assembly 360 may include only the fixing tube 361. The fixing tube 361 is movably inserted into the sheath 200 (and the mounting box 310) and is at least partially exposed on the sheath 200. The flint 350 is fixedly installed inside the fixing tube 361. By adjusting the moving position of the fixing tube 361 on the sheath 200, the flint 350 can always contact the friction part 3310.

[0039] In summary, the spark sword toy provided in this embodiment can generate sparks during the insertion and withdrawal of the blade 110 from the sheath 200. When the blade 110 moves inside the sheath 200, the contact wheel 320 can rotate under the push of the blade 110 and drive the friction wheel 330 to rotate faster through the gear set 340, so that the friction part 3310 rubs against the flint 350 to generate sparks.

[0040] For clarity, certain features described in individual embodiments of the present invention may be used in combination in a single embodiment. Furthermore, various features of the present invention described in individual embodiments may also be used individually or in any suitable form in sub-combinations.
