Description

TECHNICAL AREA

[0001] The present subject matter generally concerns an optical toy, and in particular a laser toy and a laser game. BACKGROUND

[0002] Optical phenomena such as light reflection and refraction are among the most common natural phenomena. Children encounter these phenomena constantly in their daily lives, but lack a clear understanding of them.

[0003] Tools that help children understand these natural phenomena are often used in the classroom. Before children start school, they have no opportunity to understand optical phenomena.

[0004] Understanding the process of optical phenomena can not only instill a positive interest in nature in children, but also improve their logical ability and strengthen their capacity to independently explore natural phenomena. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0010] As in Fig. As shown in Figure 1, a laser toy comprises a base 10 and several different types of functional modules 20.

[0011] The base 10 is provided with several disassembly structures 11. Each of the disassembly structures 11 is configured to detachably connect a functional module 20.

[0012] Several arrangement areas are defined on the base 10, each area being provided with one of several disassembly structures 11. Optionally, each of the several disassembly structures 11 is a disassembly slot 112. In some embodiments, the several arrangement areas on the base 10 are distributed in a matrix, and the several disassembly structures 11 are also distributed in a matrix on the base 10. In some other embodiments, the way in which the several arrangement areas on the base 10 are distributed can be adapted according to the actual requirements.

[0013] It is understandable that the several different types of function modules 20 can be arranged on the several arrangement areas on the base 10. The position of each of the several different types of function modules 20 can be adjusted. The several different types of function modules 20 can include at least one type of function module 20 or more than two types of function modules 20.

[0014] The different types of functional modules 20 in the present disclosure are configured to enable different functions. The different types of functional modules 20 comprise at least three different types: a laser emission module 21, a laser receiver module 22, and a reflection module 23. The laser emission module 21 serves to emit the laser, the laser receiver module 22 to receive the laser, and the reflection module 23 to reflect the laser. When the laser emission module 21, the laser receiver module 22, and the reflection module 23 are all arranged on the base 10, the laser emission module 21, the laser receiver module 22, and the reflection module 23 are arranged in different regions.

[0015] As in Fig. 1 and Fig. As shown in Figure 2, each type of functional module 20 has a bracket 60 and a functional section 50, wherein the bracket 60 is detachably connected to the disassembly structure 11 and the functional section 50 is arranged on the bracket 60. The functional section 50 of a functional module 20 is configured to perform the function corresponding to the functional module 20, with different types of functional modules 20 having different types of functional sections 50. All types of functional modules 20 have the same type of bracket 60 to simplify the manufacturing process.

[0016] In some embodiments, the functional section 50 of the laser emission module 21 is a laser transmitter 51, and the laser transmitter 51 is configured to emit a laser. The functional section 50 of the laser receiving module 22 is a laser receiver 52, configured to receive the laser.

[0017] The functional section 50 of the reflection module 23 is a reflector 53. When the laser emitted by the laser emission module 21 reaches the reflector 53, the reflector 53 can reflect the laser so that it can reach the laser receiving module 22. It is understood that the reflector 53 refers to a structure with a laser reflection function, which can be a mirror or a half-lens. If the reflector 53 is a half-lens, the laser incident on the half-lens can be split into two laser paths. One of the laser paths runs along the extension direction of the laser, the other along the direction of the half-lens reflection.

[0018] In some embodiments, the reflector 53 comprises a transverse mirror 2310 or a longitudinal mirror 2320. When the base 10 is placed on the horizontal plane and the functional module 20 is mounted on the base 10, the transverse mirror 2310 is arranged parallel to the vertical direction, while the longitudinal mirror 2320 is arranged at an angle to the vertical direction.

[0019] As in Fig. 1 and Fig. As shown in Figure 2, the support 60 in some embodiments comprises a support frame 30 and a disassembly base 40. A receiving cavity 31 is formed in the support frame 30. The receiving cavity is configured to accommodate the functional section 50. The side surface of the support frame 30 forms a passage opening 32 through which the laser can pass. The disassembly base 40 is connected to the support frame 30 and is detachably connected to the disassembly structure 11. In some embodiments, the support frame 30 has the same type of disassembly base 40 as the functional modules 20.

[0020] As in Fig. 2 and Fig. As shown in Figure 7, in some embodiments the profile of the support frame 30 is square, and the support frame 30 is a plastic frame, so that the support frame 30 has a certain degree of deformability based on its ability to provide support strength. The support frame 30 is hollow inside to form the receiving cavity 31, and the passage opening 32 is formed on the circumferential side of the support frame 30.

[0021] In some embodiments, one end of the support frame 30 is provided with a fastening connection 33, wherein the fastening connection 33 is in contact with the receiving cavity 31 and the disassembly base 40 is detachably connected to the support frame 30 at the location of the fastening connection 33. It is understandable that the detachable connection between the support frame 30 and the disassembly base 40 is practical for repairing and replacing the disassembly base 40.

[0022] As in Fig. 2, Fig. 7 and Fig. As shown in Figure 8, in some embodiments a stacking connection 34 is provided at an end of the support frame 30 facing away from the fastening connection 33, and the stacking connection 34 is connected to the receiving cavity 31. If several support frames 30 are stacked on top of each other, the support frames 30 of the multiple support frames 30 can be detachably connected to the disassembly base 40 of the other support frames 30 via the stacking connection 34.

[0023] It is understood that when stacking the multiple functional modules 20, the multiple support frames 30 are stacked vertically, and the disassembly base 40 of the upper support frame 30 can be inserted into the stacking connection 34 of the underlying support frame 30 to ensure the stacking stability of the multiple functional modules 20 and to prevent the multiple functional modules 20 from tipping over.

[0024] In some embodiments, the stack connection 34 of the support frame 30 is provided with chamfered surfaces at the corners of the stack connection 34, the chamfered surfaces serving to interact with other disassembly bases 40 to increase the installation efficiency of the positioning structure.

[0025] In some embodiments, the stacking connector 34 of the support frame 30 is arranged symmetrically to the mounting connector 33. For example, the upper and lower ends of the support frame 30 are mirror images of each other with respect to a horizontal plane passing through the geometric center of the support frame 30, so that the structure of the stacking connector 34 is symmetrical to the structure of the mounting connector 33. Both the stacking connector 34 and the mounting connector 33 can be equipped with a disassembly base 40, so that both the stacking connector 34 and the mounting connector 33 are interchangeable.

[0026] For example, if the mounting port 33 of the support frame 30 is facing downwards, the disassembly base 40 corresponding to the support frame 30 can be attached to the mounting port 33, and the disassembly bases 40 of the other stackable support frames 30 can be attached to the stacking ports 34. If the stacking port 34 of the support frame 30 is facing downwards, the stacking ports 34 can be considered mounting ports 33, the mounting ports 33 can be considered stacking ports 34, and the disassembly bases corresponding to the support frame 30 can be attached to the stacking port 34, and the disassembly bases 40 of the other stacked support frames 30 can be attached to the mounting port 33. In this way, the requirements for the mounting position of the disassembly bases 40 on the support frame 30 are reduced, and the efficiency of assembling the functional module 20 is increased.

[0027] As in Fig. 1 and Fig. As shown in Figure 7, in some embodiments the inside of the support frame 30 is recessed inwards to form a positioning slot 35. The positioning slot 35 is configured to adapt to the positioning of the functional section 50.

[0028] As in Fig. 2 and Fig. As shown in Figure 9, in some embodiments several mounting slots 301 are provided within the support frame 30, and the several mounting slots 301 serve to position the reflector 53. In particular, the several mounting slots 301 include transverse mounting slots 36 and longitudinal mounting slots 37.

[0029] The inner walls of the sides of the support frame 30 are recessed inwards to form transverse mounting slots 36 for positioning the transverse mirror 2310. The inner walls of the ends of the support frame 30 are recessed inwards to form longitudinal mounting slots 37 for positioning the longitudinal mirror 2320.

[0030] In some embodiments, the support frame 30 comprises a first frame 38 and a second frame 39, wherein the first frame 38 and the second frame 39 are enclosed to form the receiving cavity 31. The first frame 38 and the second frame 39 are secured in a manner that includes, but is not limited to, snap connections, screw connections, adhesive connections, and the like.

[0031] When the first frame 38 and the second frame 39 are joined and fixed, the first frame 38 and the second frame 39 are enclosed to form the receiving cavity 31, and the first frame 38 and the second frame 39 can work together to limit the functional section 50.

[0032] It is understandable that when assembling the support frame 30, the disassembly base 40 and the functional section 50, the disassembly base 40 and the functional section 50 can be positioned between the first frame 38 and the second frame 39, and then the first frame 38 and the second frame 39 can be fixed to secure the disassembly base 40 and the functional section 50 within the support frame 30, which can increase the efficiency of the assembly.

[0033] In some embodiments, the first frame 38 and the second frame 39 are centrosymmetric about a vertical plane passing through the geometric center of the support frame 30. It is understood that, to simplify the manufacturing process, the first frame 38 and the second frame 39 have the same structure.

[0034] As in Fig. 7 and Fig. As shown in Figure 8, the disassembly base 40 has an annular shape in some embodiments, and its cross-sectional shape is rectangular. The disassembly base 40 can be made of a plastic material so that, in addition to providing support strength, it also exhibits a certain degree of deformability.

[0035] The disassembly base 40 has a first end and a second end, wherein the first end of the disassembly base 40 is coupled to the support frame 30, the dimensions of the first end of the disassembly base 40 being adapted to the dimensions of the fastening connections 33, so that the first end of the disassembly base 40 can be inserted into the fastening connections 33 of the corresponding support frame 30; and wherein the dimensions of the second end of the disassembly base 40 being adapted to the dimensions of the stacking connections 34, so that the second end of the disassembly base 40 can be inserted into the stacking connection 34 of the other support frame 30.

[0036] In some embodiments, a snap-in projection 41 is provided on one side of the first end of the disassembly base 40, the snap-in projection 41 serving to engage the support frame 30. In some embodiments, the snap-in projection 41 is formed on an outer projection of the first end of the disassembly base 40, and a snap-in projection 41 is formed on each side of the disassembly base 40. The first end of the disassembly base 40 is housed in the mounting connection 33 of the support frame 30, and the snap-in projection 41 is held against the support frame 30 from the inside of the support frame 30 to securely connect the first end of the disassembly base 40 to the support frame 30.

[0037] When the disassembly base 40 needs to be installed in the support frame 30, the first end of the disassembly base 40 can be inserted into the mounting port 33 of the support frame 30, allowing the snap-in projection 41 to enter the support frame 30 from the inside and press against it. This makes installation simple and convenient and increases assembly efficiency. Furthermore, the disassembly base 40 and the support frame 30 are detachably connected by the snap-fit ​​design, which facilitates disassembly and replacement of the disassembly base 40.

[0038] As in Fig. 7 and Fig. As shown in Figure 10, in some embodiments the disassembly base 40 is provided on its sides with positioning projections 42, and these positioning projections 42 serve to interact with the disassembly structure 11 for positioning. The disassembly structure 11 is a disassembly slot 112 provided in the base 10. Optionally, the disassembly base 40 is designed with positioning projections 42 that project from the outside of the disassembly base 40, and the positioning projection 42 is formed on each side of the disassembly base 40. The side wall of the disassembly slot 112 is provided with the positioning slot 111, which corresponds to the positioning projection 42.

[0039] When the disassembly base 40 is attached to the disassembly structure 11, the disassembly base 40 is positioned by means of the positioning slot 111 in conjunction with the positioning projection 42 to increase the mounting strength of the disassembly base 40.

[0040] In some embodiments, the side of the second end of the disassembly base 40 is provided with stop ridges 43. Optionally, an outer projection of the second end of the disassembly base 40 is formed with the stop ridges 43, and the disassembly base 40 is formed with the stop ridges 43 at each of its corners.

[0041] When the second end of the disassembly base 40 is accommodated in the disassembly structure 11, the stop bead 43 presses against a side wall of the disassembly slot 112 to secure the disassembly base 40 to the disassembly structure 11.

[0042] If the disassembly base 40 is to be attached to the disassembly structure 11, the second end of the disassembly base 40 can be inserted into the disassembly structure 11 so that the respective stop bead 43 rests against the side wall of the disassembly slot 112 and the disassembly base 40 is secured by friction.

[0043] As in Fig. 7 and Fig. As shown in Figure 11, in the case where the second end of the disassembly base 40 is attached to the stacking connection 34 of the other support frame 30, the second end of the disassembly base 40 is housed in the stacking connection 34 of the support frame 30. The stop bead 43 presses against the support frame 30 from the inside to securely connect the second end of the disassembly base 40 to the support frame 30.

[0044] If the disassembly base 40 is to be attached to the other support frame 30, the second end of the disassembly base 40 can be inserted into the stacking connector 34 of the support frame 30. The respective stop bead 43 is then brought into contact with the chamfered surface of the stacking connector 34. Finally, each stop bead 43 is brought to rest on the inside of the support frame 30.

[0045] As in Fig. As shown in Figure 10, the disassembly base 40 can be attached to the disassembly structure 11 by means of the stop bead 43 or to other support brackets by means of the stop bead 43.

[0046] In some embodiments, the disassembly base 40 is provided with a flexible gap 44, the flexible gap 44 being located on one side of the stop bead 43. It should be noted that the flexible gap 44 can increase the forming capacity of the section of the disassembly base 40 near the stop bead 43, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the disassembly base 40 during assembly and disassembly.

[0047] In some embodiments, the positioning projection 42 is provided in the center of the disassembly base 40, and a gap is left between the positioning projection 42 and the first end of the disassembly base 40 to create a space between the positioning projection 42 and the snap projection 41, thereby forming a first clamping chamber 45. Furthermore, a gap is left between the positioning projection 42 and the second end of the disassembly base 40 to create a space between the positioning projection 42 and the stop bead 43, thereby forming a second clamping chamber 46.

[0048] The first clamping chamber 45 is used to clamp the corresponding support frame 30. When the first end of the disassembly base 40 is connected to the corresponding support frame 30, an edge region of the mounting connector 33 of the support frame 30 is clamped in the first clamping chamber 45. This allows the positioning projection 42 to interact with the snap projection 41 when the support frame 30 is attached, thereby increasing the connection stability between the first end of the disassembly base 40 and the corresponding support frame 30.

[0049] In the case where the second end of the disassembly base 40 is attached to the other support frame 30, the edge area of ​​the stack connection 34 of the support frame 30 is clamped in the second clamping chamber 46 so that the positioning projection 42 can interact with the stop bead 43 to secure the support frame 30, thereby increasing the stability of the connection between the second end of the disassembly base 40 and the other support frame 30.

[0050] As in Fig. As shown in Figure 10, it can be understood that the disassembly base 40 can assume a positioning function through the positioning projection 42 in conjunction with the disassembly structure 11, and that it can also be attached to various support frames 30 through the positioning projection 42 in conjunction with the stop bead 43 or the snap projection 41, thereby simplifying the fastening structure and facilitating disassembly.

[0051] In some embodiments, the disassembly base 40 is a first magnet 81, and the disassembly structure 11 on the base is provided with a second magnet 82. The first magnet 81 is magnetically attracted to the second magnet 82, so that the functional module 20 is attracted to the base. A third magnet 83 is provided at the stack connection 34, and the first magnet 81 of one functional module 20 is magnetically attracted to the third magnet 83 of the other functional module, thereby connecting the two functional modules 20 along the third direction Z.

[0052] As in Fig. 1 and Fig. As shown in Figure 7, in some embodiments the laser transmitter 51 of the laser emission module 21 can be a laser transmitter, wherein the laser transmitter 51 is attached within the corresponding support frame 30 and the transmitting end of the laser transmitter 51 is exposed on one side of the corresponding support frame 30.

[0053] The shape of the laser transmitter 51 is adapted to the positioning slot 35. When the laser transmitter 51 is housed in the receiving cavity 31, the circumferential edge section of the laser transmitter 51 can be held against the slot wall of the positioning slot 35 to ensure the mounting stability of the laser transmitter 51.

[0054] In some embodiments, the laser transmitter 51 is further equipped with an on / off switch, the on / off switch being exposed on the top of the corresponding support frame 30. The laser transmitter 51 can be easily activated or deactivated via the switch.

[0055] In some embodiments, the laser receiver 52 of the laser receiver module 22 can be a laser sensor, wherein the laser receiver 52 is mounted within a corresponding support frame 30 and the target surface end of the laser receiver 52 is exposed on one side of the corresponding support frame 30.

[0056] The shape of the laser receiver 52 is adapted to the positioning slot 35. When the laser receiver 52 is housed in the receiving cavity 31, the circumferential edge section of the laser receiver 52 can press against the slot wall of the positioning slot 35 to ensure the mounting stability of the laser receiver 52.

[0057] In some embodiments, the laser receiver 52 is further equipped with a display 521, the display 521 being exposed on one side of the corresponding support frame 30. When the laser receiver 52 receives the laser signal, the display 521 can light up.

[0058] In some embodiments, the shape of the laser blocker 54 of the laser blocking module 24 is adapted to the positioning slot 35, and the laser blocker 54 can fill the interior according to the support frame 30 to achieve the laser blocking effect. When the light-shielding laser blocker 54 is housed in the receiving cavity 31, a circumferential edge section of the light-shielding laser blocker 54 can press against the slot wall of the positioning slot 35 to ensure the mounting stability of the light-shielding laser blocker 54.

[0059] As in Fig. 2 and Fig. As shown in Figure 9, in some embodiments the shape of the reflector 53 of the reflection module 23 is adapted to the mounting slots 301. The two ends of the reflector 53 are each snapped into several mounting slots 301 of the corresponding support frame 30 to enable the reflector 53 to be attached. The two ends of the transverse mirror 2310 are each snapped into the transverse mounting slots 36 of the corresponding support frame 30. The two ends of the longitudinal mirror 2320 are each snapped into the longitudinal mounting slot 37 of the corresponding support frame 30.

[0060] As in Fig. As shown in Figure 1, the functional module 20 in this embodiment further comprises a transmission module 25, and the laser can be guided through the functional section 50 of the transmission module 25. It should be noted that in the case of a stacked installation, the transmission module 25 can be provided on the underside of the other functional module 20 to configure the other functional module 20 as a second or third functional layer module. For example, the transmission module 25 can be used in conjunction with a reflection module 23, which has a transverse mirror 2310 installed in the second layer module to reflect the laser located in the second layer.

[0061] In some embodiments, the support frame 30 of the passage module 25 is hollow inside so that the receiving cavity 31 itself can form a functional section 50. The functional section 50 not only has the property of being translucent, but also provides space for mounting the disassembly base 40 of the other functional modules 20.

[0062] As in Fig. 1 and Fig. As shown in Figure 2, it is noteworthy that in this embodiment, each functional module 20 can use the same mounting bracket 60, so that the same mounting bracket 60 is suitable for mounting different functional sections 50 and standardization of the mounting bracket 60 is enabled, thereby reducing manufacturing costs and increasing manufacturing efficiency. In other embodiments, each functional module 20 can use a different support frame 30 or a different disassembly base 40; for example, the laser emission module can directly use the housing of the laser transmitter 51 as a support frame 30 and attach the disassembly base 40 to the underside of the housing, etc. However, the present disclosure is not limited to these.

[0063] The laser toy 1 can be used not only to visualize optical phenomena but also for games. For example, the laser toy 1 can be supplied with a task card indicating the types and positions of the game pieces to be placed on the game board. The player must place each functional module 20 on the corresponding position of the base 10 according to the type and position of the game pieces as indicated on the task card, in order to enable an effective laser propagation path between the individual functional modules 20.

[0064] The present disclosure also includes a laser game. This laser game comprises the following steps: S11, Provision of a laser receiving module and a laser emission module in two different areas of a base. S12, Calculating a laser transmission path, a laser reflection area is defined as the inversion position in the laser transmission path. S13, Setting up a reflection module in the laser reflection area to adjust the laser so that it is transmitted along the laser transmission path. S14, switching on the laser emission module and observing the incoming laser.

[0065] The step of calculating the laser transmission path 70 includes the following: S121, Determining a first partial path originating from the laser emission module and determining a second partial path incident at the laser receiving module; When the first path segment and the second path segment intersect, the area where the first path segment and the second path segment intersect is the laser reflection area; If the first path segment and the second path segment do not intersect, a third path segment is determined that connects the first path segment and the second path segment, and if the third path segment is at least partially perpendicular to the first path segment or the second path segment, then the area where the first path segment and the third path segment intersect is one of the laser reflection areas, and the area where the second path segment and the third path segment intersect is the other of the laser reflection areas.

[0066] In the step of deploying the laser receiving module and the laser emission module in two different areas of the base, the laser game further includes the following step: S111, Deploying a laser blocking module in the base.

[0067] If the base is equipped with the laser blocking module 24, the step of calculating the laser transmission path 70 is also included in the following step: S122, Calculate the laser transmission path and, if the laser transmission path passes through the laser blocking module, calculate an alternative path to replace the section of the laser transmission path passing through the laser blocking module, the alternative path being a path around the laser blocking module to prevent the laser from being blocked by the laser blocking module.

[0068] In the step of deploying the laser receiving module and the laser emission module in two different areas of the base, the laser game further includes the following step: S112, Providing a functional module on the underside of the laser transmitter and / or the laser receiver for adjusting the height of the laser transmitter and / or the laser receiver.

[0069] If at least one functional module is located on the underside of the laser transmitter and / or the laser receiver, this is also included in the step of calculating the laser transmission path: S123, Determine whether the laser receiving module and the laser emission module are at the same height in the third direction Z;

[0070] When the laser transmitter and the laser receiver are at the same height in the third direction Z, all reflection modules on the first laser path are adjusted by means of other functional modules in the third direction Z;

[0071] If the laser receiving module and the laser emission module are at the same height in the third direction Z, adjust the height of the reflection module on the first laser path to set the reflection module at the same height as the laser receiving module in the third direction Z.

[0072] Fig. 1 and Fig. Figure 3 shows a first application scenario of such a laser toy.

[0073] In a first application scenario, the laser toy 1 is located in a space defined by a first direction X, a second direction Y, and a third direction Z. It is divided into twenty-five squares in the first direction X and the second direction Y. When the base 10 is placed flat on a horizontal surface, the first direction X and the second direction Y run parallel to the horizontal surface, and the third direction Z is a vertical direction.

[0074] The laser emission module 21 is positioned at A (X1, Y5, Z1), and the laser emission module 21 emits lasers in the positive direction along the first direction X. The position of the laser receiving module 22 is B (X5, Y1, Z1), and the laser receiving module 22 receives lasers in the negative direction along the second direction Y.

[0075] Determining a first partial path 71 originating from the laser transmitter and determining a second partial path 72 arriving at the laser receiver; The first path segment 71 and the second path segment 72 intersect, and the area where the first path segment 71 and the second path segment 72 intersect is the laser reflection area 77. The laser reflection area 77 is given by (X5, Y5, Z1). The position of the reflection module 23 is C (X5, Y5, Z1). The reflection module 23 has a transverse mirror 2310, and the reflection module 23 reflects the laser between the first direction (X-direction) and the second direction (Y-direction).

[0076] In this way, the laser emission module 21 emits lasers that can reach the reflection module 23, which reflects the laser, so that this laser can finally reach the laser receiving module 22.

[0077] In this embodiment, the number of reflection modules 23 can also be greater than or equal to 2, and the multiple reflection modules 23 can work together to reflect the laser.

[0078] Fig. Figure 4 shows a second application scenario for such a laser toy 1.

[0079] In a second application scenario, the laser toy 1 is located in a space defined by the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z. It is divided into twenty-five squares in the first direction X and the second direction Y.

[0080] The position of the laser emission module 21 is A (X1, Y5, Z1), and the laser emission module 21 emits lasers in the positive direction along the first direction X. The position of the laser receiving module 22 is B (X1, Y1, Z1), and the laser receiving module 22 receives lasers in the negative direction along the first direction X.

[0081] Determining a first partial path 71 originating from the laser transmitter and determining a second partial path 72 arriving at the laser receiver; The first partial path 71 and the second partial path 72 do not intersect; a third partial path 73, which connects the first partial path 71 and the second partial path 72, is calculated; the third partial path 73 runs perpendicular to the first partial path 71 or to the second partial path 73; the area where the first partial path 71 and the third partial path 73 intersect is a laser reflection area 77; and the area where the second partial path 72 and the third partial path 73 intersect is also a laser reflection area 77.

[0082] Both laser reflection areas 77 are equipped with reflection modules 23, and the number of reflection modules 23 is 2. The reflection modules 23 have transverse mirrors 2310, and the reflection modules 23 reflect lasers between the first direction (X-direction) and the second direction (Y-direction). The two reflection modules 23 comprise a reflection module 23a and a reflection module 23b, where the position of reflection module 23a is Ca (X5, Y5, Z1) and the position of reflection module 23b is Cb (X5, Y1, Z1).

[0083] In this way, the laser emission module 21 emits lasers that can reach the reflection module 23a, and the laser is then reflected successively by the reflection module 23a and the reflection module 23b, so that this laser can finally reach the laser receiving module 22.

[0084] It is understood that by mounting the laser emission module 21 in different areas, the laser emission direction and position of the laser emission module 21 can be changed. Similarly, by installing the laser receiver module 22 in different areas, the laser reception direction and position of the laser receiver module 22 can be changed. Finally, by installing the laser reflection module 23 in different areas, the laser propagation path can be altered. After setting the position of the laser emission module 21 and the position of the laser receiver module 22, a suitable laser path can be developed so that the laser emitted by the laser emission module 21 is directed into the laser receiver module 22. At least one reflection module 23 is mounted on the base 10 to cause the laser to propagate along the defined laser path.During use, parents can place the laser emission module 21 and the laser receiver module 22 at different points on the base 10. A child can independently decide how to define the laser path and install the reflection module 23 on the base 10 so that the laser propagates along the laser path defined by the child.

[0085] As in Fig. As shown in Figure 1, in some embodiments the functional module 20 further comprises a laser blocking module 24, wherein the functional section 50 of the laser blocking module 24 is a laser blocker 54 that prevents the laser from penetrating the laser blocker. It is understood that the laser blocking module 24 can prevent the laser from passing through and increase the interference factor of the laser propagation path in the laser toy, thereby enhancing the fun of playing with the laser toy.

[0086] Fig. Figure 5 shows a third application scenario for such a laser toy 1.

[0087] In a third application scenario, the laser toy 1 is located in a space defined by the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z. The laser toy 1 is located in a space defined by the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z. It is divided into twenty-five squares in the first direction X and the second direction Y.

[0088] The position of the laser emission module 21 is A (X1, Y5, Z1), and the laser emission module 21 emits lasers in the positive direction along the first direction X. The position of the laser receiving module 22 is B (X1, Y1, Z1), and the laser receiving module 22 receives lasers in the negative direction along the first direction X.

[0089] The position of the laser blocking module 24 is D (X5, Y3, Z1).

[0090] The laser transmission path 70 is used as in Fig. As shown in Figure 4, the laser transmission path 70 passes through the laser blocking module 24. The alternative path 78 is calculated to replace the section of the laser transmission path 70 that passes through the laser blocking module 24, and the alternative path 78 is set around the laser blocking module 24 to bypass it.

[0091] The number of laser reflection areas 77 in the laser transmission path 70 with the bypass path 78 is four, and the number of reflection modules 23 is four. The reflection modules 23 have transverse mirrors 2310, and the reflection modules 23 reflect lasers between the first direction (X-direction) and the second direction (Y-direction). The four reflection modules 23 comprise a reflection module 23a, a reflection module 23b, a reflection module 23c, and a reflection module 23d, where the position of reflection module 23a is Ca (X5, Y5, Z1), the position of reflection module 23b is Cb (X5, Y4, Z1), the position of reflection module 23c is Cc (X3, Y4, Z1), and the position of reflection module 23d is Cd (X3, Y1, Z1).

[0092] In this way, the laser emission module 21 emits lasers that can reach the reflection module 23a, and the laser is reflected successively by the reflection module 23a, the reflection module 23b, the reflection module 23c and the reflection module 23d, so that the laser can finally reach the laser receiving module 22.

[0093] In some embodiments, at least two functional modules 20 are stacked along the third direction Z to support various laser propagation path designs. A mounting bracket 60 of one functional module 20 is attached to the top of a mounting bracket 60 of another functional module 20 in the third direction Z. The functional module 20 mounted directly on the base 10 is referred to as the first layer module, the functional module 20 arranged above the first layer module is referred to as the second functional layer module, and the functional module 20 arranged above the second layer module is referred to as the third functional layer module. Understandably, with an increasing number of functional modules 20 arranged on the bottom, the top-mounted functional module 20 can also be a fourth layer module or something else.Among other things, the longitudinal mirror 2320 can change the propagation direction of the laser, and the laser propagating parallel to the horizontal plane propagates along the third direction Z after reflection through the longitudinal mirror 2320.

[0094] Fig. Figure 6 shows a fourth application scenario for such a laser toy 1.

[0095] In the fourth application scenario, the laser toy 1 is located in the space defined by the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z. The base 10 is the same as the base 10 in the third application scenario and is subdivided into twenty-five squares in the first direction X and the second direction Y.

[0096] The laser emission module 21 is positioned at A (X1, Y1, Z1), and the laser emission module 21 emits lasers in a positive direction along the first direction X.

[0097] The laser receiver module 22 is positioned at B (X1, Y1, Z3), and the laser receiver module 22 receives lasers in the positive direction along the first direction X. The laser receiver module 22 is stacked on the base 10 by means of two functional modules 20, which can be a laser blocking module 24 or a transmission module 25.

[0098] The laser transmitter 21 and the laser receiver 22 are not at the same height in the third direction Z. Two longitudinal mirrors 2320 stacked in the third direction Z are provided.

[0099] In particular, the number of reflection modules 23 is two. The reflection modules 23 have longitudinal mirrors 2320, and the reflection modules 23 reflect the laser between the first direction (X-direction) and the third direction (Z-direction). The two reflection modules 23 comprise a reflection module 23a and a reflection module 23b, where the position of reflection module 23a is Ca (X3, Y1, Z1) and the position of reflection module 23b is Cb (X3, Y1, Z3).

[0100] The transmitting module 25 is positioned at E (X3, Y1, Z2). The reflecting module 23a is mounted on base 10, the transmitting module 25 is stacked on top of the reflecting module 23a, and the reflecting module 23b is stacked on top of the transmitting module 25.

[0101] In this way, the laser emission module 21 emits lasers that can reach the reflection module 23a, and the laser passes through the transmission module 25 and is successively reflected by the reflection module 23a and the reflection module 23b, so that the laser can finally reach the laser receiving module 22.
