DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0046] The following describes in detail embodiments of the present application. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application and are not to be construed as limiting the present application.

[0047] 1 , a transformable toy 1000 according to an embodiment of the present application includes a base 10 and a body 20. The body 20 is connected to the base 10 and has an unfolded state and a folded state. In other words, the body 20 is deformable and can be unfolded or folded on the base 10. The base 10 provides support and fixation for the body 20, ensuring that the transformable toy 1000 maintains a stable state in different transformed states, thereby improving the structural stability of the transformable toy 1000. It is understood that the transformable toy 1000 generally needs to be placed on a relatively flat surface in order to stand stably. By providing the base 10, the transformable toy 1000 is less likely to fall over in different states and can adapt to different play environments, thereby enhancing the user's play experience.

[0048] 1 , the transformable toy 1000 may further include a rotating member 31 and a driving member 32. The rotating member 31 is rotatably mounted on the base 10 and is in transmission connection with the body 20. The driving member 32 is rotatably connected to the base 10 and is configured to drive the rotating member 31 to fold the body 20. The rotating member 31 and the body 20 may be connected by a key, pin, or threaded connection, so that the rotating member 31 can stably rotate the body 20. Preferably, the rotating member 31 and the body 20 are connected by a key. This arrangement ensures a secure connection between the rotating member 31 and the body 20, improves the stability and reliability of the connection, and is able to withstand large forces and torques, thereby enabling the rotating member 31 to stably fold the body 20 during rotation. The driver 32 is positioned below the base 10, making the overall structure of the transformable toy 1000 compact. The driver 32 is rotatably connected to the base 10, while the base 10 is relatively fixed, enhancing the structural stability of the driver 32. Furthermore, the driver 32 facilitates the application of deformation force to the transformable toy 1000, facilitating folding and making folding of the transformable toy 1000 more convenient and quick. To store the transformable toy 1000, simply rotate the driver 32, enhancing the user experience.

[0049] The body 20 is connected to the base 10 and has an unfolded state and a folded state. When the body 20 is in the unfolded state, it can stand on the base 10, and when it is in the folded state, it can be stacked on the base 10. When the body 20 is folded, the transformable toy 1000 can be conveniently stored or carried.

[0050] 1 and 2 , the driving member 32 can have a first position and a second position. When the body 20 is in the unfolded state, the driving member 32 is in the first position, and when the body 20 is in the folded position, the driving member 32 is in the second position. When the driving member 32 moves from the first position to the second position, it cooperates with the rotating member 31 and can drive the rotating member 31 to fold the body 20. In other words, the driving member 32 is in different positions when the body 20 is in different deformed states. When the body 20 is unfolded, the driving member 32 is in the first position. At this point, the body 20 can be folded by simply flipping the driving member 32 to the second position. This makes folding the body 20 more convenient and quicker, allowing for quick storage of the transformable toy 1000.

[0051] 1 and 2 , in some embodiments of the present application, the driver 32 can be stacked on the bottom surface of the base 10 in both the first and second positions, and the driver 32 is reversibly disposed below the base 10 in the front-to-back direction. As shown in FIG1 , when the body 20 is in the unfolded state, the driver 32 is in the first position. At this point, the driver 32 can be stacked near the front of the bottom surface of the base 10. When the driver 32 is flipped back to a position near the rear of the bottom surface of the base 10, the body 20 is driven to fold. In other words, the driver 32 rotates 180° in the first position relative to the second position, allowing it to be stacked on the bottom surface of the base 10 in both the first and second positions. This makes the transformable toy 1000 compact. Furthermore, since the base 10 is a relatively fixed structure, connecting the driver 32 to the base 10 can enhance the structural stability of the driver 32.

[0052] Referring to Figures 4, 6, and 8, in some embodiments of the application, the transformable toy 1000 may include a fourth rack 13, which is movably mounted on the base 10 and is in transmission connection with the rotating member 31. The fourth rack 13 and the rotating member 31 may be in a gear transmission connection. The fourth rack 13 may be provided with a first toggle tooth 131, wherein the driving member 32 may be provided with a second toggle tooth 331. When the driving member 32 moves from the first position to the second position, the first toggle tooth 131 and the second toggle tooth 331 cooperate to drive the body 20 to fold. For example, the first toggle tooth 131 may be located below the fourth rack 13. When the body 20 needs to be folded, the driving member 32 may be flipped backward. During the flipping process, the first toggle tooth 131 and the second toggle tooth 331 transmit power, driving the fourth rack 13 forward. The fourth rack 13 drives the rotating member 31 to rotate, and the rotating member 31 drives the body 20 to rotate, thereby achieving folding of the body 20. By disposing the fourth rack 13 between the driving member 32 and the rotating member 31 and using gear transmission, the reliability of the transmission structure can be improved.

[0053] 6 and 7 , in some embodiments of the present application, the base 10 may include a fourth reset member 141 , which is connected to the driving member 32 and has an elastic force that pushes the driving member 32 to move toward the first position. Specifically, when the transformable toy 1000 switches from the folded state to the unfolded state, the driving member 32 rotates from the second position to the first position. By providing the fourth reset member 141 , it is convenient to push the driving member 32 to move toward the first position, and the driving member 32 can be stably maintained in the first position, thereby improving the structural stability of the driving member 32. When an external force greater than the elastic force is applied to the driving member 32, the driving member 32 can be flipped to move to the second position, thereby driving the folding of the body 20. This configuration makes the switching between the unfolded and folded states of the body 20 smoother.

[0054] 6 and 7 , the base 10 may further include a second locking hook 112 , which may have a locked position and an unlocked position to releasably lock the driver 32 in the second position. The driver 32 moves from the first position to the second position, driving the body 20 in the folded state. At this time, when the second locking hook 112 is in the locked position, the driver 32 can engage with the second locking hook 112 to stably maintain the driver 32 in the second position. When the second locking hook 112 is in the unlocked position, the driver 32 can be released. At this time, under the action of the fourth return member 141, the driver 32 is pushed to move toward the first position and the driver 32 can be stably maintained in the first position. The fourth return member 141 may be a spring.

[0055] 4 and 7 , the base 10 may further include a seventh transmission structure 16 and a fifth return member 142. The seventh transmission structure 16 is movable to drive the second locking hook 112 to an unlocked position. The fifth return member 142 is connected to the seventh transmission structure 16 and is adapted to elastically drive the second locking hook 112 to a locked position. Specifically, when the driver 32 is locked by the second locking hook 112 in the second position, the seventh transmission structure 16 can move backward, driving the second locking hook 112 backward. The second locking hook 112 moves to the unlocked position, releasing the lock on the driver 32. Under the action of the fourth return member 141, the second locking hook 112 is pushed to the first position. After the lock on the driver 32 is released, the seventh transmission structure 16 returns to its original position under the action of the fifth return member 142, simultaneously driving the second locking hook 112 to the locked position, preparing for the second locking hook 112 to lock the driver 32 next time. The fifth return member 142 may be a spring.

[0056] 5 and 6 , in some embodiments of the present application, the transformable toy 1000 may further include an unlocking member 500. The unlocking member 500 may be separate from the body 20 and the base 10, or may be embedded between the body 20 and the base 10, allowing for adjustment based on the shape of the transformable toy. The seventh transmission structure 16 may include a first transmission portion 161. The base 10 may further include a magnetic structure 15. The magnetic structure 15 may be connected to the first transmission portion 161. The magnetic structure 15 is configured to attract the unlocking member 500 and drive the first transmission portion 161 to move, thereby unlocking the second locking hook 112. Specifically, the unlocking member 500 can be made of metal. Taking the example of a structure in which the unlocking member 500 and the main part of the transformable toy 1000 (the body 20 and the base 10) are separate bodies, the unlocking member 500 can be pushed toward the transformable toy 1000, and the transformable toy 1000 can be pushed toward the unlocking member 500. When the transformable toy 1000 approaches the unlocking member 500, the unlocking member 500 approaches the magnetic structure 15, and the magnetic structure 15 adsorbs the unlocking member 500. The magnetic structure 15 is pushed by the unlocking member 500, driving the first transmission part 161 to move backward, and driving the second lock hook 112 to move backward to the unlocking position, thereby releasing the driving member 32. The driving member 32 moves to the first position under the action of the fourth reset member 141.

[0057] 4 and 8 , in some embodiments of the present application, the base 10 may be provided with a roller 171, the seventh transmission structure 16 may include a second transmission portion 162, the base 10 may further include a cam 172 and a transmission mechanism 173, the cam 172 being connected to the second transmission portion 162 to drive the second transmission portion 162 to move and unlock the second locking hook 112, and the transmission mechanism 173 being transmission-connected to the roller 171 and the cam 172, respectively. Specifically, the roller 171 is rotatably fixed to the base 10 and is transmission-connected to the transmission mechanism 173. The rotation of the roller 171 drives the transmission mechanism 173, which in turn drives the cam 172 to rotate. When the cam 172 rotates to a certain position, it drives the second transmission portion 162 to move backward, thereby driving the second locking hook 112 to move backward to the unlocked position, thereby releasing the driving member 32, which then moves to the first position under the action of the fourth return member 141.

[0058] 5 , 7 , and 8 , in some embodiments of the present application, the base 10 may include a first locking hook 111 and a second locking hook 112. The first locking hook 111 can releasably lock the body 20 in the folded state, and the second locking hook 112 can releasably lock the driving member 32 in the second position. The second locking hook 112 and the first locking hook 111 can be unlocked synchronously. In other words, when the body 20 switches from the folded state to the unfolded state, the driving member 32 moves synchronously from the second position to the first position. The first locking hook 111 can be fixed above the seventh transmission structure 16. When the seventh transmission structure 16 moves, it simultaneously drives the first locking hook 111 to move, thereby releasing the folded state of the body 20 and ensuring that the second locking hook 112 and the first locking hook 111 are unlocked synchronously.

[0059] In combination with the aforementioned embodiment, the movement of the roller 171 on the base 10, i.e., the travel of the transformable toy 1000, can trigger the synchronous unlocking of the first and second locking hooks 111, 112. Alternatively, the unlocking member 500 can trigger the synchronous unlocking of the first and second locking hooks 111, 112. After the first and second locking hooks 111, 112 are unlocked, the driving member 32 is released synchronously with the body 20. The driving member 32 moves to the first position under the elastic force of the fourth return member 141, and the body 20 switches from the folded state to the unfolded state. By providing a variety of different ways to trigger the unlocking of the first and second locking hooks 111, 112, the gameplay of the transformable toy 1000 is enriched and the fun of the transformable toy 1000 is enhanced.

[0060] 9 and 10 , in some embodiments of the present application, the body 20 may include a first deformable member 211, a second deformable member 212 and a first transmission assembly 22. The first deformable member 211 is rotatably connected to the base 10 and is in transmission connection with the rotating member 31. The second deformable member 212 is rotatably connected to the first deformable member 211. The first transmission assembly 22 is respectively connected to the base 10, the first deformable member 211 and the second deformable member 212, so as to link the first deformable member 211 and the second deformable member 212 to fold synchronously. Specifically, the transformable toy 1000 may have multiple deformable members, which can enrich the form of the transformable toy 1000. The first transmission assembly 22 can make the first deformable member 211 and the second deformable member 212 synchronously linked to achieve synchronous folding, thereby realizing one-button folding of the body 20, making the state switching and storage of the transformable toy 1000 simple and convenient, thereby improving the user experience.

[0061] Referring to FIG. 11 , in some embodiments of the present application, the body 20 may include a first restoring member 241 . The first restoring member 241 is connected to the base 10 and the first deformable member 211 , respectively, and has an elastic force that drives the first deformable member 211 to unfold. Specifically, the body 20 has an unfolded state and a folded state. The provision of the first restoring member 241 allows the body 20 to be stably maintained in the unfolded state, improving the structural stability of the transformable toy 1000 and facilitating the transition of the body 20 from the unfolded state to the folded state. When the driving member 32 is rotated and the force acting on the first deformable member 211 is greater than the elastic force of the first restoring member 241 , the first deformable member 211 is driven to rotate, causing the body 20 to transition from the unfolded state to the folded state. The first restoring member 241 may be a spring or other structure.

[0062] Referring to FIG. 11 , in some embodiments of the present application, the body 20 may include a second restoring member 242 . The second restoring member 242 may be connected to the first deformable member 211 and the second deformable member 212 , respectively, and may have an elastic force that drives the second deformable member 212 to unfold. Specifically, the body 20 has an unfolded state and a folded state. The provision of the second restoring member 242 allows the body 20 to stably maintain the unfolded state, improving the structural stability of the transformable toy 1000 and facilitating the transition of the body 20 from the unfolded state to the folded state. When the driving member 32 is rotated, the first deformable member 211 is driven to fold, simultaneously driving the first transmission assembly 22 to rotate. The first transmission assembly 22 applies a force to the second deformable member 212 that is greater than the elastic force of the second restoring member 242 , driving the second deformable member 212 to rotate, thereby switching the body 20 from the unfolded state to the folded state. The second restoring member 242 may be a spring or other structure.

[0063] Referring to FIG. 12 , in some embodiments of the present application, the base 10 may include a first locking hook 111 that can releasably lock the body 20 in the folded state. When the body 20 is in the folded state, the first deformable member 211 and the second deformable member 212 are folded onto the base 10 and locked by the first locking hook 111. With this arrangement, after the body 20 is folded, the first locking hook 111 can lock the body 20, stably maintaining the folded state and improving the structural stability of the transformable toy 1000. In conjunction with the aforementioned embodiments, the first locking hook 111 can be released from the body 20 by triggering the travel of the transformable toy 1000 or by the unlocking member 500 to the unlocked position. The transformable toy 1000 may include a first restoring member 241 and / or a second restoring member 242 that can drive the body 20 to unfold, stably maintaining the body 20 in the unfolded state. The transformable toy 1000 can be folded or unfolded with one button, and after switching between different states, it can stably maintain the corresponding state.

[0064] 9 and 10, in some embodiments of the present application, the first transmission assembly 22 may include a first transmission structure 221 and a second transmission structure 222. The first transmission structure 221 is telescopically provided on the first deformable member 211, and one end of the first transmission structure 221 may be slidably connected to the base 10. When the first deformable member 211 rotates, it is suitable for driving the first transmission structure 221 to extend and retract. The second transmission structure 222 is rotatably provided on the first deformable member 211 and is respectively connected to the first transmission structure 221 and the second deformable member 212 in transmission. Specifically, the second transmission structure 222 and the first transmission structure 221 may be gear transmissions, and the second transmission structure 222 may be gear transmissions. The dynamic structure 222 and the second deformable member 212 can be key-connected, the driving member 32 drives the rotating member 31 to rotate, the rotating member 31 drives the first deformable member 211 to rotate, the first transmission structure 221 moves upward, the first transmission structure 221 drives the second transmission structure 222 to rotate, and the second transmission structure 222 drives the second deformable member 212 to rotate. The first deformable member 211 and the second deformable member 212 are linked through the cooperation of the first transmission structure 221 and the second transmission structure 222, thereby realizing the synchronous folding of the first deformable member 211 and the second deformable member 212. The transformable toy 1000 can be transformed and stored with one click, thereby improving the user experience.

[0065] Referring to FIG10 , optionally, a slide groove 12 may be provided on the base 10, and an end portion of the first transmission structure 221 may slidably engage with the slide groove 12. For example, the first transmission structure 221 may include a rack, and an end portion of the rack may slidably engage with the slide groove 12, so that when the first deformable member 211 rotates on the base 10, the first transmission structure 221 can extend and retract on the first deformable member 211. Furthermore, the first transmission structure 221 and the second transmission structure 222 may be connected in a transmission manner using a gear transmission. For example, the other end portion of the rack may be provided with teeth, and the second transmission structure 222 may be provided with a gear, and the other end portion of the rack may mesh with the gear on the second transmission structure 222. The slide groove 12 may extend from one end to the other around the rotation center of the second transmission structure 222 and gradually move away from the rotation center of the second transmission structure 222. In this configuration, when the first transmission structure 221 slides along the slide groove 12, it can simultaneously drive the second transmission structure 222 to rotate about its rotation center. By providing the slide groove 12 on the base 10 , the first transmission structure 221 is made to move along a predetermined direction, thereby avoiding deviation of the movement direction and improving the stability of the first transmission assembly 22 during the movement.

[0066] In combination with Figure 10, in addition, a gear rack transmission structure may be provided between the first transmission structure 221 and the second transmission structure 222, which can convert the telescopic movement of the first transmission structure 221 into the rotational movement of the second deformation member 212 relative to the first deformation member 211. Specifically, referring to Figures 12 and 13, for example, the first transmission structure 221 may have a first rack 2211, and the second transmission structure 222 may have a third gear 2222. The first rack 2211 may form a gear rack transmission structure with the third gear 2222. When the first rack 2211 telescopes and rotates, the third gear 2222 is driven to convert into rotational movement. The second transmission structure 222 is key-connected to the second deformation member 212, and the rotation of the third gear 2222 can drive the second deformation member 212 to rotate and fold.

[0067] Referring to Figures 10, 12 and 13, optionally, the first transmission assembly 22 may further include a third transmission structure 223, which is rotatably provided on the first deformable member 211. The third transmission structure 223 may include a first gear 2231 and a second gear 2232 that are coaxial and fixedly connected, wherein the first transmission structure 221 may have a first rack 2211, and the second transmission structure 222 may have a third gear 2222, the first rack 2211 is engaged with the first gear 2231, and the third gear 2222 is engaged with the second gear 2232, and the number of teeth of the third gear 2222 is less than the number of teeth of the second gear 2232. In other words, the third transmission structure 223 is respectively connected to the first transmission structure 221 and the second transmission structure 222. By setting the third transmission structure 223, the transmission ratio can be changed. Specifically, the coaxial and fixedly connected first gear 2231 and second gear 2232 serve as transition teeth between the first transmission structure 221 and the second transmission structure 222, and mesh with each other, which can achieve the effect of deceleration and torque increase, and can reduce the rotation speed of the third gear 2222, thereby increasing the output torque of the second transmission structure 222, avoiding insufficient force of the second deformable member 212 during rotation, resulting in uneven rotation, so that when the first deformable member 211 rotates, it can smoothly drive the rotation of the second deformable member 212, thereby improving the stability of the fuselage 20 when folded.

[0068] Specifically, the flip driving member 32 drives the rotating member 31 to rotate, driving the first deforming member 211 to rotate backward, and the first deforming member 211 simultaneously drives the first rack 2211 to slide forward along the slide groove 12 on the machine base 10, and the first rack 2211 simultaneously drives the third transmission structure 223 (the first gear 2231 and the second gear 2232) to rotate, and the third transmission structure 223 transmits force to drive the first gear 2231 to rotate, and the rotation of the first gear 2231 drives the second deforming member 212 to rotate, completing the synchronous linkage of the first deforming member 211 and the second deforming member 212 and folding them on the machine base 10.

[0069] 9 and 10 , in some embodiments of the present application, to enrich the morphology of the transformable toy 1000, the body 20 may further include a third deformable member and a second transmission assembly 23. The third deformable member 213 is rotatably connected to the second deformable member 212. The second transmission assembly 23 is respectively connected to the second deformable member 212 and the third deformable member 213, so that the third deformable member 213 and the second deformable member 212 can be linked and folded synchronously. Specifically, when the second deformable member 212 rotates, it drives the second transmission assembly 23 to move, which in turn drives the third deformable member 213 to rotate, thereby achieving linked and synchronous folding of the third deformable member 213 and the second deformable member 212.

[0070] By setting the second transmission component 23, the linkage between the second deformable member 212 and the third deformable member 213 is realized. Combined with the above-mentioned embodiment, the first transmission component 22 realizes the linkage between the first deformable member 211 and the second deformable member 212, and the second transmission component 23 realizes the linkage between the second deformable member 212 and the third deformable member 213. That is to say, by flipping the driving member 32 and the cooperation between the first transmission component 22 and the second transmission component 23, the linkage between the first deformable member 211, the second deformable member 212 and the third deformable member 213 can be realized, and the driving member 32 drives the body 20 to fold with one button, so that the folding of the transformable toy 1000 is convenient and quick, and the storage of the transformable toy 1000 is convenient.

[0071] Furthermore, the body 20 includes a third restoring member 243, which is connected to the second deformable member 212 and the third deformable member 213, respectively, and has an elastic force that drives the third deformable member 213 to fold. Referring to Figure 17, in the unfolded state, the second transmission assembly 23 abuts against the third deformable member 213, exerting a force on the third deformable member 213 to drive it to unfold. When the second transmission assembly 23 moves, the force exerted by the second transmission assembly 23 on the third deformable member 213 is eliminated. At this time, the elastic force of the third restoring member 243 causes the third deformable member 213 to move closer to the second deformable member 212, thereby achieving the folding of the third deformable member 213.

[0072] 14 and 15 , in some embodiments of the present application, the second transmission assembly 23 may include a fourth transmission structure 231, a fifth transmission structure 232, and a sixth transmission structure 233. The fourth transmission structure 231 is fixed relative to the first deformable member 211. The fifth transmission structure 232 is telescopically disposed on the second deformable member 212 and is in transmission connection with the fourth transmission structure 231. The sixth transmission structure 233 is rotatably disposed on the second deformable member 212 and is in transmission connection with the fifth transmission structure 232 and the third deformable member 213, respectively. Specifically, the fourth transmission structure 231 can be key-connected to the first deformable member 211 and fixed on the second deformable member 212. When the first deformable member 211 rotates, it drives the fourth transmission structure 231 to rotate, and at the same time drives the second deformable member 212 to fold. The fourth transmission structure 231 drives the fifth transmission structure 232 to move downward, and the fifth transmission structure 232 drives the sixth transmission structure 233 to rotate, and synchronously realizes the folding of the third deformable member 213. With this arrangement, multiple deformable members can be folded synchronously with one button, which facilitates the deformation and storage of the transformable toy 1000.

[0073] 14 and 15 , the fourth transmission structure 231 may optionally include a fourth gear 2311, the fifth transmission structure 232 may include a second rack 2321 at one end and a third rack 2322 at the other end, and the sixth transmission structure 233 may include a fifth gear 2331. The fourth gear 2311 meshes with the second rack 2321, and the third rack 2322 meshes with the fifth gear 2331. The fifth gear 2331 is adapted to drive the third deformable member 213 to unfold. The fourth transmission structure 231 may be transmission-connected to the first deformable member 211 and fixed to the second deformable member 212. The relative position of the fourth transmission structure 231 remains unchanged. When the first deformable member 211 folds, it simultaneously drives the fourth gear 2311 to rotate, driving the second rack 2321 downward. The second rack 2321 drives the third rack 2322 downward, simultaneously driving the fifth gear 2331 to move. This achieves the linkage of multiple deformable members, and the transmission structure is reliable and highly stable.

[0074] Referring to Figures 9, 10, and 16, in some embodiments of the present application, the body 20 may further include a fourth deformable member 214. The fourth deformable member 214 may be connected to the sixth transmission structure 233 and fixed relative to it. In other words, when the sixth transmission structure 233 rotates, it can simultaneously drive the rotation of the fourth deformable member 214, thereby folding the fourth deformable member 214. The fourth deformable member 214 and the sixth transmission structure 233 may be connected by a key, which simplifies the structure and improves the stability and reliability of the connection between the fourth deformable member 214 and the sixth transmission structure 233, thereby stably driving the folding of the fourth deformable member 214. Furthermore, the provision of the fourth deformable member 214 enriches the form of the transformable toy 1000 and enhances its fun factor.

[0075] According to the embodiment of the present application, the transformable toy 1000 has two forms: an unfolded state and a folded state. The transformable toy 1000 can be in the form of a robot, an animal, a vehicle, etc. For example, in the unfolded state, it can be a robot or an animal, etc., and in the folded state, it can be a toy car. Switching between different states can enrich the fun of the transformable toy 1000, and the folded state makes the transformable toy 1000 easier to store and carry. Below, with reference to the accompanying drawings, the folded state is a toy car, and the unfolded state is a robot. In the unfolded state, the transformable toy 1000 may include a first deformable member 211 and a second deformable member 212. The first deformable member 211 may be a leg, and the second deformable member 212 may be a body. To enrich the form and fun of the transformable toy 1000, the transformable toy 1000 may further include a third deformable member 213 and a fourth deformable member 214. The third deformable member 213 may be an arm, and the fourth deformable member 214 may be a wing.

[0076] In some embodiments of the present application, a first rotation axis may be defined between the first deformable member 211 and the base 10, a second rotation axis may be defined between the second deformable member 212 and the first deformable member 211, and a third rotation axis may be defined between the third deformable member 213 and the second deformable member 212. The first rotation axis may be parallel to the second rotation axis, and the second rotation axis may be perpendicular to the third rotation axis. For example, the first and second rotation axes may extend left-right, and the third rotation axis may extend front-to-back. When the transformable toy 1000 is folded, the first and second deformable members 211, 212 may be stacked on the base 10, and the third deformable member 213 may be folded onto either side of the second deformable member 212. This allows the folded transformable toy 1000 to be compact, space-saving, and convenient for storage and portability.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present application, the first deformable member 211 can be folded onto the base 10, and the second deformable member 212 can be folded with the first deformable member 211. Such an arrangement enables the body 20 of the transformable toy 1000 to have a compact structure when switched to the folded state, which can save space and facilitate the storage and carrying of the toy.

[0078] In some embodiments of the present application, in the folded state, the third deformable member 213 can be folded with the second deformable member 212. Such an arrangement enables the body 20 of the transformable toy 1000 to have a compact structure when switched to the folded state, which can save space and facilitate the storage and carrying of the toy.

[0079] In some embodiments of the present application, in the unfolded state, the first deformable member 211 can extend in the up-down direction, and the lower end is connected to the base 10, and the second deformable member 212 can extend in the up-down direction, and the lower end is connected to the upper end of the first deformable member 211. For example, the transformable toy 1000 can be a robot in the unfolded state, the first deformable member 211 can be a leg, and the second deformable member 212 can be a body. The robot is connected to the base 10, so that the overall structure of the robot is stable, can maintain a good standing posture, and can adapt to different play environments. When the unfolded state is switched to the folded state, the first deformable member 211 and the second deformable member 212 can be folded synchronously, transforming into different forms and shapes, thereby increasing the fun of the toy.

[0080] In some embodiments of the present application, in the expanded state, the third deformable member 213 can extend in the vertical direction, with its upper end connected to the upper end of the second deformable member 212 and its lower end spaced apart from the second deformable member 212 in the horizontal direction. For example, the expanded state of the deformable member can be a robot, with the second deformable member 212 being the body and the third deformable member 213 being the arm, one end of each arm being connected to the body and located on either side of the body. This enriches the form of the transformable toy 1000. When switching from the expanded state to the folded state, the second deformable member 212 and the third deformable member 213 can fold synchronously, transforming into different forms and shapes, thereby increasing the fun of the toy.

[0081] The following describes the switching process of the transformable toy 1000 of the present application from the unfolded state to the folded state with reference to Figures 1 to 17. The transformable toy 1000 is in the unfolded state (robot state). When the transformable toy 1000 needs to be transformed into the folded state (toy car form), or when the transformable toy 1000 needs to be stored for easy carrying, the driving member 32 can be flipped backward, and the second toggle tooth 331 is matched with the first toggle tooth 131 to drive the fourth rack 13 to move forward. The fourth rack 13 is engaged with the rotating member 31, driving the rotating member 31 to rotate in the clockwise direction. The rotating member 31 is connected to the first deformable member 211 (leg) to drive The first deformation member 211 (leg) rotates backward and folds onto the machine base 10. During the rotation process, the first deformation member 211 (leg) drives the first transmission structure 221 to move upward along the slide slot 12. The upper end of the first rack 2211 is engaged with the first gear 2231. The first gear 2231 is coaxially fixedly connected with the second gear 2232. The second gear 2232 is engaged with the third gear 2222. The first rack 2211 drives the first gear 2231 and the second gear 2232 to rotate in a clockwise direction. The first gear 2231 and the second gear 2232 have the purpose of deceleration and torque increase, and drive the third gear 2222 to rotate in a counterclockwise direction. The second transmission structure 22 At the same time, the second deformable member 212 (body) is driven to rotate forward, causing the second deformable member 212 to fold onto the base 10. Since the fourth transmission structure 231 is fixed to the second deformable member 212 (body), the fourth gear 2311 does not rotate relative to the second deformable member 212. The fourth gear 2311 drives the second rack 2321 to move downward, and drives the third rack 2322 to move downward. The fifth gear 2331 engages with the third rack 2322, and the third rack 2322 moves downward, driving the fifth gear 2331 to rotate counterclockwise. The sixth transmission structure 233 simultaneously drives the fourth deformable member 214 (wings) to rotate and fold onto the second deformable member 214. 2 (body), and at the same time, during the rotation process, the sixth transmission structure 233 drives the third deformable member 213 (arm) to fold on both sides of the second deformable member 212 (body) under the elastic action of the third reset member 243, and through the cooperation of multiple racks and gears, under the drive of the driving member 32, the synchronous linkage folding of the various deformable members of the fuselage 20 is realized, that is, under the drive of the driving member 32, the fuselage 20 is folded with one button, so that the folding state switching of the transformable toy 1000 is fast and convenient, and after folding, the transformable toy 1000 has a compact structure and is transformed into the form of a toy car, which is convenient for storage or carrying of the transformable toy 1000 and enhances the user's play experience.
