Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of amusement equipment technology, and in particular to a game motorcycle. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of amusement equipment technology, a game motorcycle is an immersive device that simulates the swinging motion of a motorcycle. Game motorcycles in the industry generally adopt a direct-drive rotating shaft technology to achieve the swinging motion of the motorcycle body. The typical structure of this solution is as follows: The game motorcycle includes a motorcycle body and a motion platform. The motorcycle body is set above the motion platform and is rotatably connected to the motion platform through a rotating shaft. This rotating shaft is the fulcrum for the motorcycle body to swing. Then, the drive motor is directly connected to the rotating shaft. The torque output by the drive motor directly drives the rotating shaft to rotate, thereby driving the motorcycle body to swing around the rotating shaft.

[0003] However, in the aforementioned solution, the rotating shaft needs to directly bear the overall weight of the motorcycle body and the inertial torque generated during the swing. In order to drive the rotating shaft to overcome this load and achieve swing, a high-torque drive motor needs to be configured and a transmission mechanism needs to be set up to increase the torque, which makes the overall size of the equipment larger and the manufacturing cost higher. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a gaming motorcycle to solve the technical problems of large equipment size and high manufacturing cost of gaming motorcycles.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a game motorcycle, including a base, a motorcycle body, a swing driver, a front connecting part, and a rear connecting assembly. The motorcycle body is positioned forward above the base. The front connecting part and the rear connecting assembly are located between the base and the motorcycle body. The base and the motorcycle body are rotatably connected via the front connecting part, which is located in front of the rear connecting assembly. The rear connecting assembly includes a swing wheel and an abutment part. One of the swing wheel and the abutment part is located at the top of the base, and the other is located at the bottom of the motorcycle body. The swing wheel and the abutment part abut against each other. A first included angle α is formed between the axis of the swing wheel and the radial direction of the front connecting part toward the swing wheel, where the first included angle α < 90°. The swing driver is connected to the swing wheel and is used to drive the swing wheel to rotate, causing the swing wheel and the abutment part to rub against each other, thereby causing the motorcycle body to swing around the front connecting part.

[0006] Optionally, the abutment portion is located on the top surface of the base, the swing wheel is located on the bottom of the motorcycle body, and the swing driver is mounted on the motorcycle body.

[0007] Optionally, the abutting portion includes at least an abutting plane disposed around the front connecting portion and symmetrically arranged on both sides in the left-right direction.

[0008] Optionally, the axis of the swing wheel is oriented toward the front connecting portion.

[0009] Optionally, it also includes a drive shaft. The swing wheel includes a hub and a rubber coating. The rubber coating is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the hub. The two ends of the drive shaft are respectively connected to the swing driver and the hub. The rubber coating is connected to the abutment portion.

[0010] Optionally, the swing wheel and the abutting part abut against each other, causing the swing wheel and / or the abutting part to undergo elastic deformation.

[0011] Optionally, a detection component is also included, which is disposed on the base and connected to the front connecting part, and the detection component is used to detect the rotation angle of the front connecting part.

[0012] Optionally, the front connecting part includes a base and a rotating shaft. The base is mounted on the top surface of the base, and the rotating shaft is vertically arranged and rotatably connected to the base. The detection assembly includes a swinging component, a detection wheel, and an angle sensor. The swinging component is sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft and fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. The outer side of the swinging component is provided with a plurality of first teeth in sequence. The detection wheel is rotatably disposed on the base, and the outer side of the detection wheel is provided with a plurality of second teeth in sequence. The first teeth are engaged with the second teeth. The angle sensor is connected to the detection wheel and is used to detect the rotation angle of the detection wheel.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the game motorcycle implemented in this utility model are as follows: In this invention, the motorcycle body is positioned above a base. The front part of the motorcycle body is rotatably connected to the base via a front connecting part, and the rear part of the motorcycle body is connected to the base via a rear connecting assembly. The swing actuator outputs torque to overcome the friction between the swing wheel and the abutment, causing the laterally positioned swing wheel to rotate and roll on the abutment, thereby causing the motorcycle body to swing around its axis of rotation. This is equivalent to applying a lateral thrust to the part of the motorcycle body away from the front connecting part. Therefore, when the player manipulates the motorcycle body to swing left or right, the swing actuator can drive the rear connecting part to rotate around the front connecting part, causing the rear end of the motorcycle body to rotate around the front end, thus achieving the swing function. Compared to existing technologies that require overcoming the overall weight of the motorcycle body and the swing inertial torque, the swing actuator only needs to overcome the friction between the swing wheel and the abutment to achieve the tail-swing function. In summary, this invention allows for the use of a swing actuator with a smaller torque specification and smaller size, and eliminates the need for an additional transmission mechanism, resulting in a smaller device size and lower manufacturing cost.

[0020] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit its scope.

[0021] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "circumferential", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0022] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model discloses a toy motorcycle, including a base 1, a motorcycle body 2, a swing drive 3, a front connecting part 6, and a rear connecting assembly 5. The motorcycle body 2 is positioned forward above the base 1. The front connecting part 6 and the rear connecting assembly 5 are located between the base 1 and the motorcycle body 2. The base 1 and the motorcycle body 2 are rotatably connected via the front connecting part 6, which is located in front of the rear connecting assembly 5. The rear connecting assembly 5 includes a swing wheel 51 and an abutment part 52. One of the components 52 is located at the top of the base 1 and the other is located at the bottom of the motorcycle body 2. The swing wheel 51 and the abutment part 52 abut against each other. The axis of the swing wheel 51 and the radial direction of the front connecting part 6 toward the swing wheel 51 have a first included angle α, which is less than 90°. The swing driver 3 is connected to the swing wheel 51 and is used to drive the swing wheel 51 to rotate so that the swing wheel 51 and the abutment part 52 rub against each other, thereby causing the motorcycle body 2 to swing around the front connecting part 6.

[0024] In the above technical solution, the motorcycle body 2 is positioned above the base 1. The front part of the motorcycle body 2 is rotatably connected to the base 1 via the front connecting part 6, and the rear part of the motorcycle body 2 is connected to the base 1 via the rear connecting assembly 5. The swing driver 3 outputs torque to overcome the friction between the swing wheel 51 and the abutment part 52, causing the laterally positioned swing wheel 51 to rotate and roll on the abutment part 52. This causes the motorcycle body 2 to swing around the rotation axis 62, which is equivalent to applying a lateral thrust to the part of the motorcycle body 2 away from the front connecting part 6. Therefore, when the player manipulates the motorcycle body 2 to swing left or right, the swing driver 3 can drive the rear connecting part to rotate around the front connecting part 6, thereby causing the rear end of the motorcycle body 2 to rotate around the front end, achieving the swing function. Compared with existing technologies that require overcoming the overall weight of the motorcycle body 2 and the swing inertial torque, the swing driver 3 only needs to overcome the friction between the swing wheel 51 and the abutment part 52 to achieve the tail-swing function. In summary, the present invention's game motorcycle can use a swing drive 3 with a smaller torque specification and smaller size, and does not require the design of an additional transmission mechanism, making the present invention's game motorcycle smaller in size and lower in manufacturing cost.

[0025] The first included angle a < 90° ensures that the swing wheel 51 can apply a circumferential force to the front connecting part 6 when it rotates. Otherwise, the swing wheel 51 can only apply a force that moves closer to or away from the front connecting part 6 when it rotates, and cannot make the motorcycle body 2 swing.

[0026] Among them, the swing driver 3 can be a rotary motor.

[0027] Furthermore, the abutment part 52 is provided on the top surface of the base 1, the swing wheel 51 is provided on the bottom of the motorcycle body 2, and the swing driver 3 is installed on the motorcycle body 2.

[0028] The length of the abutment portion 52 in the left-right direction determines the range of swing of the motorcycle body 2. Therefore, the abutment portion 52 is generally made relatively wide. The abutment portion 52 is set on the base 1, which can effectively utilize the width of the base 1 and does not require increasing the width of the motorcycle body 2, thus avoiding collisions with personnel and equipment when the motorcycle body 2 swings.

[0029] Furthermore, the abutting portion 52 includes at least an abutting plane that is disposed around the front connecting portion 6 and is symmetrical on both sides in the left-right direction.

[0030] The swing wheel 51 moves around the front connecting part 6 by abutting the abutting plane. The abutting plane can be an arc-shaped plane arranged around the front connecting part 6. In order to ensure that the swing amplitude of the motorcycle body 2 is the same on both sides in the left and right directions, the abutting plane can be symmetrically arranged in the left and right directions.

[0031] Furthermore, the axis of the swing wheel 51 is oriented toward the front connecting part 6 so that the force generated by the rotation of the swing wheel 51 can be used as much as possible to push the motorcycle body 2 to swing, thereby improving the efficiency of the swing drive 3.

[0032] The axis of the swing wheel 51 is set toward the front connecting part 6 at a first included angle α of 0 to 20°, preferably α of 0°.

[0033] Furthermore, it also includes a drive shaft. The swing wheel 51 includes a hub and a rubber coating. The rubber coating is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the hub. The two ends of the drive shaft are respectively connected to the swing driver 3 and the hub. The rubber coating is connected to the abutment part 52.

[0034] The swing wheel 51 consists of a rigid hub and a flexible rubber coating, so that the hub can be rigidly connected to the swing driver 3, thereby ensuring connection strength and working efficiency. If the swing wheel 51 is entirely made of rubber, it will be prone to damage and have a very slow response time.

[0035] In some embodiments, the rubber coating can be fixedly connected to the wheel hub by cladding. In other embodiments, the outer side wall of the wheel hub can also be provided with a protrusion. When the rubber coating is fitted on the outer side of the wheel hub, it abuts against the protrusion so that the wheel hub and the rubber coating can rotate together. This can be a structure similar to that of providing external and internal teeth.

[0036] Alternatively, the drive shaft can be a motor shaft, or the drive shaft can be connected to the motor shaft of the oscillating drive 3 via a coupling.

[0037] Furthermore, the swing wheel 51 and the abutting part 52 abut against each other, causing the swing wheel 51 and / or the abutting part 52 to undergo elastic deformation.

[0038] Specifically, by setting the distance between the axis of the swing wheel 51 and the abutment part 52 to be less than the radius of the swing wheel 51, a larger abutment force is generated between the swing wheel 51 and the abutment part 52, thereby causing one or both of the swing wheel 51 and the abutment part 52 to undergo elastic deformation, thereby increasing the friction force that can be generated between them, and thus reducing the risk of the motorcycle body 2 slipping during normal operation.

[0039] Furthermore, it also includes a detection component 4, which is disposed on the base 1 and connected to the front connecting part 6. The detection component 4 is used to detect the rotation angle of the front connecting part 6. In this way, the detection component 4 detects the rotation angle of the front connecting part 6 to detect the posture of the motorcycle body 2.

[0040] Furthermore, the front connecting part 6 includes a base 61 and a rotating shaft 62. The base 61 is mounted on the top surface of the base 1, and the rotating shaft 62 is vertically arranged and rotatably connected to the base 61. The detection assembly 4 includes a swing member 41, a detection wheel 42, and an angle sensor. The swing member 41 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating shaft 62 and fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 62. The outer side of the swing member 41 is provided with a plurality of first teeth 411 in sequence. The detection wheel 42 is rotatably disposed on the base 1, and the outer side of the detection wheel 42 is provided with a plurality of second teeth 421 in sequence. The first teeth 411 are engaged with the second teeth 421. The angle sensor is connected to the detection wheel 42 and is used to detect the rotation angle of the detection wheel 42.

[0041] The motorcycle body 2 drives the front connecting part 6 to rotate around its axis. The front connecting part 6 drives the swing member 41 to rotate. The swing member 41 drives the detection wheel 42 to rotate through the first tooth 411 and the second tooth 421. After the angle sensor detects the rotation angle of the detection wheel 42, the rotation angle of the motorcycle body 2 can be calculated.

[0042] Furthermore, the detection component 4 can be located on the upper part, bottom part, or inside the base 1.

[0043] Furthermore, fixed setting and fixed connection refer to the fixed relative positional relationship of two components, including but not limited to fixing by connectors, fixing by welding, fixing by adhesive, fixing by integral molding, and fixing by snap-fit ​​connection.

[0044] Furthermore, rotatable connection and rotatable setting refer to the ability of two connected components to rotate, including but not limited to connections via bearings or clearance fits.

[0045] Furthermore, the connectors include, but are not limited to, fasteners, straps, ropes, pneumatic connectors, hydraulic connectors, flanges, Velcro, and buttons.

[0046] In summary, this utility model embodiment provides a gaming motorcycle, the technical effects of which are as follows: In this invention, the motorcycle body 2 is positioned above the base 1. The front part of the motorcycle body 2 is rotatably connected to the base 1 via a front connecting part 6, and the rear part of the motorcycle body 2 is connected to the base 1 via a rear connecting assembly 5. The swing driver 3 outputs torque to overcome the friction between the swing wheel 51 and the abutment part 52, causing the laterally positioned swing wheel 51 to rotate and roll on the abutment part 52. This causes the motorcycle body 2 to swing around the rotation axis 62, effectively applying a lateral thrust to the part of the motorcycle body 2 away from the front connecting part 6. Therefore, when the player manipulates the motorcycle body 2 to swing left or right, the swing driver 3 can drive the rear connecting part to rotate around the front connecting part 6, thereby causing the rear end of the motorcycle body 2 to rotate around the front end, achieving the swing function. Compared to existing technologies that require overcoming the overall weight of the motorcycle body 2 and the swing inertial torque, the swing driver 3 only needs to overcome the friction between the swing wheel 51 and the abutment part 52 to achieve the tail-swing function. In summary, the present invention's game motorcycle can use a swing drive 3 with a smaller torque specification and smaller size, and does not require the design of an additional transmission mechanism, making the present invention's game motorcycle smaller in size and lower in manufacturing cost.

[0047] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
