[0027] The toy of this utility model is a funny toy or an entertainment toy, and users can be consumers of all ages from 0 to 20. The manufacturing process in the toy design complies with the GB6675-2014 national standard for toy safety, thereby ensuring the safety of the toy when playing with it.
[0028] The design features and working process of this utility model are as follows: This utility model is a humorous plush toy designed by the designer based on popcorn, a common snack in life. It is equipped with an action mechanism, powered by three alkaline zinc-manganese primary batteries (LR6), and controlled by a microphone to record audio and a small speaker to play sound. At the same time, it drives the motor to make the main rod twist and turn, which drives the upper blade to stir the popcorn (foam particles) to make a popping action.
[0029] Insert three mercury-free alkaline zinc-manganese batteries (LR6) into the battery compartment of the toy base and toss the battery switch to the ON position. When the consumer speaks or sings into the "popcorn cup," the "popcorn cup" will immediately respond and mimic the speech, while simultaneously, a rotating blade inside the transparent cover at the top of the cup will rapidly spin and stir the popcorn (35 round foam particles representing popcorn) inside, making a comical popping motion. The popping motion will stop when the "popcorn cup" finishes mimicking the speech. If the consumer speaks or sings into the "toy popcorn cup" again, the toy will restart a cycle.
[0030] The manufacturing process of this utility model is as follows: 1. The main body of the toy is made of polyester short plush. The fabric is printed with patterns, then cut and sewn into a "toy cup cover" (fabric cover).
[0031] 2. Do not install the rotating blade on the middle rotating rod of the "plastic mechanism" yet. First, insert the mechanism into the toy's leather case. The thin rotating rod extends out from the top of the "toy cup leather case". Then, attach the rotating blade to the rod, hand-sew it in place, and apply glue to strengthen the grip, or directly screw it in and fix it with threads.
[0032] 3. Stuff the toy cup cover with brand new polyester staple fiber PP cotton, and use a cable tie to fasten the cover to the bottom cable tie groove of the plastic mechanism by passing the cable tie through the cable tie hole at the bottom edge of the cup cover.
[0033] 4. The "toy cup cover" (fabric cover) has an upper gathering ring at the top and a retaining ring around the edge of the cover. The upper gathering ring is inserted into the retaining ring and sewn together with straps or ties. After securing, the notch of the upper gathering ring is sewn shut to form a single piece, preventing the edge of the cover from cutting your hands. Before sewing, put 35 pieces (the exact number and size can be adjusted according to the actual situation) of popcorn (white foam particles) into the semi-circular transparent cover.
[0034] 5. Install the battery into the battery compartment at the bottom of the movement, turn on the toggle switch, and start using the device.
