Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202420939466.7, filed on Apr. 30, 2024, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present invention relates to toys, in particular to a multi-style water filling toy balloon.BACKGROUND

[0003] There is currently a water balloon throwing game in which a balloon filled with water is thrown at a player, the player who is hit will be wetted by the water when the balloon bursts, and the player will try to avoid the flying water balloon as much as possible. This game is really a refreshing, enjoyable and safe activity to relieve summer heat. Balloons used in traditional water balloon throwing activities are disposable balloons that cannot be reused after they burst. Using too many balloons can easily cause environmental pollution. Secondly, such water balloons require the balloons to be filled with water through pressure, which often requires a faucet. Many people like to play in places with water such as suburban grasslands, seasides or riversides. However, under the action of normal atmospheric pressure, it is very difficult to inflate the balloons by direct water filling. Therefore, due to the lack of water pressure in water sources in the natural environment, it is difficult to allow the water balloons to be filled with water and expand to take shapes on site, resulting in a limited playing environment.

[0004] For this reason, there is a water balloon on the market that can be filled with water multiple times to be reused. For example, the invention patent titled “Toy Water Ball” with the publication number “CN112619180A” discloses a toy water balloon, which includes a plurality of valve bodies, each of the valve bodies has a first edge part and a second edge part; at least one first magnetic attraction piece is mounted on each first edge part, and at least one second magnetic attraction piece is mounted on each second edge part; and when the valve bodies are encircled to form a sphere shape, the first magnetic attraction pieces on the first edge parts of the valve bodies and the second magnetic attraction pieces on the second edge parts of the adjacent valve bodies generate attraction force so that the first edge parts of the valve bodies can be tightly attached to the second edge parts of the adjacent valve bodies, and therefore the valve bodies jointly form a water carrying cavity. A magnetic attraction structure is adopted by the toy water ball, so that the plurality of valve bodies together form the water-carrying cavity.

[0005] For another example, the invention patent titled “Toy Water Ball” with the publication number “CN217661508U” discloses a toy water balloon, which includes a first carrier and a second carrier. One end of the first carrier and one end of the second carrier are connected through a connecting piece. The first carrier and the second carrier are folded by taking the connecting piece as a folding point and then buckled with each other to form a water ball main body with a closed water-carrying cavity. Through a clamping structure, the first carrier and the second carrier are buckled with each other to form the water ball main body.

[0006] For yet another example, the invention patent filed by the applicant on Jun. 2, 2023, and titled “Pressing Type Circulating Water Injection Toy Ball” with the publication number “CN220402735U” discloses a press type circulating water injection toy ball, which includes a hollow whole shell as well as an elastic reset component and a cover body located in the hollow whole shell. The elastic reset component pushes the cover body to close an opening. The cover body is pushed through the toughness and resilience of the elastic reset component to return to a center position of the opening, and the opening is sealed to form a ball body.

[0007] Although the above-mentioned water balloon toys can achieve the purposes of closing and sealing by using magnetic attraction, clamping or elastic structures, their closing strength is fixed, the closing and sealing effects cannot be adjusted by adjusting the closing strength, that is, the water releasing effect after the balloons are thrown to be hit cannot be flexibly adjusted, the personalized needs cannot be met, and the water filling way is single, making it difficult to meet diversified use needs.SUMMARY

[0008] In view of the above shortcomings, the objective of the present invention is to provide a multi-style water filling toy balloon with reasonable structural design, adjustable closing strength, and multiple water filling ways.

[0009] In order to achieve the above objective, a technical solution provided by the present invention is as follows:

Through the matching of the connector and the insertion hole, fast and stable assembly can be achieved.

[0016] As a preferred solution of the present invention, shapes of openings of the two half-shell rubber bodies are the same, and shapes of other parts are the same or different, which meets the needs for diverse shapes.

[0017] As a preferred solution of the present invention, a connecting seat is provided at a center position of an inner wall of the other half-shell rubber body, and the screw hole is located on the connecting seat.

Preferably, the open edge positions of the half-shell rubber bodies 2 are provided with turning edges 21 extending in a center-of-sphere direction of the half-shell rubber bodies, which enhances the strength of edges and increases a mating area, resulting in good sealing effect. Reinforcing ribs 22 are provided at positions where the half-shell rubber bodies 2 are connected with the turning edges 21, which improves the structural strength of the turning edges 21. Reinforcing protruding strips 23 are provided on inner walls of the half-shell rubber bodies 2, which can improve the structural strength of the half-shell rubber bodies 2. In other embodiments, the two half-shell rubber bodies 2 may also be different in color and shape, and as long as shapes of openings of the two half-shell rubber bodies 2 are kept the same, shapes of other parts may be different, so that the needs for diverse shapes are met.

[0037] One end of the adjusting rod 1 is connected to an inner wall of one of the half-shell rubber bodies 2. In the present embodiment, the adjusting rod 1 and the half-shell rubber bodies 2 are of an integrally-connected structure. This may reduce the number of assemblies and lower the production cost, and meanwhile, the integrally-connected structure also helps to improve firmness and durability of the connection.

[0038] The other end of the adjusting rod 1 is provided with a threaded part 11, a connecting seat 24 is provided at a center position of an inner wall of the other half-shell rubber body 2, and a screw hole 25 matching the threaded part 11 is provided on the connecting seat 24. The addition of the connecting seat 24 enables the structure of the screw hole 25 to be more stable, preventing the position of the screw hole 25 from shifting or the screw hole from deforming when the adjusting rod 1 is twisted, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection. In other embodiments, the connecting seat 24 may not be provided.

[0039] The threaded part 11 of the adjusting rod 1 is aligned with the screw hole 25 and pressed into it, so that the two half-shell rubber bodies 2 are connected through the adjusting rod 1 and cover each other to form a hollow whole shell.

[0040] In Embodiment 2, referring to FIG. 5 to FIG. 6, the present embodiment provides a multi-style water filling toy balloon, which has a structure that is basically consistent with that of Embodiment 1. The difference is that the adjusting rod 1 and the half-shell rubber bodies 2 are of a split structure. A connector 12 is provided at one end of the adjusting rod 1, and the connector 12 is square or non-circular. An insertion hole 25 matching the connector 12 is provided on an inner wall of one of the half-shell rubber bodies 2. The connector 12 is inserted into the insertion hole 25 to achieve the purpose of connection. Preferably, glue is also applied into the insertion hole 25 to further improve the firmness of the connection.

[0041] In Embodiment 3, referring to FIGS. 7 to 8, the present embodiment provides a multi-style water filling toy balloon, which has a structure that is basically consistent with that of Embodiment 1. The difference is that the screw hole 25 penetrates through the half-shell rubber body 2.

[0042] In Embodiment 4, referring to FIG. 9, the present embodiment provides a multi-style water filling toy balloon, which has a structure that is basically consistent with that of Embodiment 1. The difference is that the two half-shell rubber bodies 2 have different colors but the same shape.

The difference is that the two half-shell rubber bodies 2 are different in color and also different in overall shape. In other embodiments, the two half-shell rubber bodies 2 may also adopt other shape designs, as long as the shapes of openings of the two half-shell rubber bodies 2 are kept the same.

[0044] Referring to FIG. 11, the half-shell rubber bodies 2 may be twisted, and the closing strength between the two half-shell rubber bodies 2 may be adjusted by adjusting a depth of the threaded part 11 of the adjusting rod 1 screwed into the screw hole 25 so as to achieve the required sealing effect and obtain the corresponding effect of bursting to release water, and the flexibility is high.

[0045] During water filling, referring to FIG. 12, the half-shell rubber bodies 2 on both sides are pressed at the same time to deform the openings so as to achieve the purpose of water filling. In other embodiments, only the half-shell rubber body 2 on one side may be pressed to be filled with water, and the purpose of water filling can also be achieved.

[0046] Referring to FIG. 13, a method of pulling open the two half-shell rubber bodies 2 may also be adopted to achieve the purpose of water filling.

[0047] Referring to FIG. 14, the two half-shell rubber bodies 2 may be pulled apart in opposite directions to achieve the purpose of water filling.

[0048] In addition, as shown in FIG. 11, a gap may also be formed between the two half-shell rubber bodies 2 by twisting the half-shell rubber bodies 2. After the toy balloon is thrown into water, the water will enter the half-shell rubber bodies 2 through the gap, which can also achieve the purpose of water filling. There are many ways of water filling, and diverse play needs can be met.

[0049] Referring to FIG. 15, since in the multi-style water filling toy balloon of the present invention, the hollow whole shell is composed of the two half-shell rubber bodies 2, after the balloon is filled with water and is thrown to be hit, the whole will burst from the middle position, the water releasing effect is good, and the entertaining effect is improved.
