This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202411944731.1, filed on Dec. 27, 2024, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of children's toys, and in particular, to a magnetic toy.

BACKGROUND

In recent years, as people's living standards continue to improve, there has been a growing emphasis on quality of life and the cultivation of children. Most families prioritize the intellectual development of young children. For the intellectual development of young children, the market is flooded with various kinds of educational toys, for example, magnetic sheet toys.

magnetic sheet toys are assembled into different shapes using magnetic sheets of various designs. Children can use the shapes of the tiles to unleash their imagination and build their preferred models. However, most existing magnetic sheets are non-detachable. Non-detachable magnetic toys often have issues with the positioning of the magnets, leading to misaligned assemblies that affect playability.

In response, professionals in the field have researched detachable magnetic assembly structures. As disclosed in Patent No. CN2012104352960 filed on May 8, 2013, a magnetic connector device includes one or more magnetic housings, each containing one or more magnets placed therein and can rotate within the housing. The device is designed with one or more safety measures to prevent the magnets from being removed or accessed. The device includes an internal seat ring block connected to one or more magnetic housings, as well as a first external housing block and a second external housing block connected to the internal seat ring block. The first external housing block is positioned on one side of the connector device that is opposite to the second external housing block, allowing the internal seat ring block to be located between the first and second external housing blocks. The first and second external housing blocks are aligned and connected to the internal seat ring block via pins.

The shortcomings of the prior art are as follows: the magnetic housing protrudes from the device, and when using pins or engage manner to attach the magnetic housing to the device, the magnetic housing is prone to detachment. This poses a risk of the magnets falling out and being accidentally swallowed by children. Additionally, the connection points are exposed on the surface of the device, making them susceptible to damage and creating potential safety hazards. If screws or similar methods are used for fixation, the overall surface performance of the device is poor, increasing the risk of scratching children and also presenting safety concerns.

SUMMARY

The present disclosure, in order to overcome the above shortcomings of the prior art, provides a magnetic toy with high anti-detachment performance of the components, good surface integrity, and enhanced safety performance of the magnetic toy.

Another object of the present disclosure is to improve the assembly joint performance of the magnetic toy.

In order to achieve the above objects, the present disclosure adopts the following technical solution.

A magnetic toy, comprising a toy body and a mounting assembly, the mounting assembly being provided with a magnet and mounted onto the toy body to impart magnetic properties to at least part of the toy body, wherein the mounting assembly comprises an engage section, the toy body is provided with a hollow section; the engage section is engaged in the hollow section to form a concealed structure configured for connecting the toy body and the mounting assembly, and an outer side of the mounting assembly is in smooth transition with a surface of the toy body.

The mounting assembly contains the magnet and is attached to the toy body, so as to impart magnetic properties to at least part of the toy body, such that different toy bodies can be magnetically connected to form various shapes, facilitating the intellectual development of young children.

The connection between the mounting assembly and the toy body is achieved through the engage section, and the connection is convenient. The engage section is hidden within the hollow section. This design prevents exposure, making separation difficult and providing high anti-detachment performance.

The outer side of the mounting assembly transitions smoothly with the toy body, leaving no sharp protrusions. The engage section, concealed within the hollow section, ensures a smooth and integrated appearance for the magnetic toy, avoiding scratches the children and enhancing safety.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, an engage limiting direction of the engage section is co-linear with a hollowing direction of the hollow section. Once engaged into place, the engage section cannot be detached in the engage limiting direction. The engage section needs to enter into the hollow section for an engage, and the engage section needs to be detached from the hollow section. Since the engage limiting direction of the engage section and the hollowing direction of the hollow section are co-linear, the engage section is, thus, difficult to be engaged and detached, and it has high anti-detachment performance.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the mounting assembly further comprises a deformable member, the deformable member is configured for providing a displacement margin for the engage section to extend into the hollow section for engaging. The provision of the deformable member allows positional adjustments for easy assembly of the engage section.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the deformable member is provided with a recess portion to form a bendable part. The recess portion reduces the strength of the deformable member at that location, such that the location is easy to bend. This enables the engage section to pivot around the bendable part, ensuring precise positional adjustments for easier extending into the hollow section for an engage.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the engage section comprises a first engage portion and a second engage portion engaging with each other, the first engage portion and the second engage portion are engaged to a position within the hollow section, and the mounting assembly holds tightly to a side of the hollow section during engaging. Forming an engage structure inside the hollow section requires higher process costs. The preferred engage section includes a first engage portion and a second engage portion that can be engaged with each other, which facilitates easier forming and lowers forming costs. After the first and second engage portions are engaged, the mounting assembly tightly holds one side of the hollow section, achieving a reliable connection between the mounting assembly and the toy body.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the mounting assembly comprises a receiving member, the receiving member is provided with a receiving chamber for receiving the magnet, the receiving chamber is provided with a mounting opening for the magnet to enter and exit; the first engage portion and the second engage portion are provided on opposite sides of the mounting opening, and the mounting opening is in a blocked state when the first engage portion and the second engage portion are engaged with each other. The magnet enters the receiving chamber through the mounting opening, making mounting easy. The magnet can be removed and reused. When the first and second engage portions are engaged within the hollow section, the mounting assembly tightly holds one side of the hollow section. The mounting opening is located between the first and second engage portions, and is therefore blocked by one side of the hollow section, preventing the magnet from falling out, and ensuring the magnet is securely positioned.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the deformable member comprises a first connector and a second connector; the first connector is configured for connecting the first engage portion and the receiving member, the second connector is configured for connecting the second engage portion and the receiving member; and the first connector and the second connector are provided with a first concave portion and a second concave portion on opposite sides thereof, respectively. The first and second concave portions are located on the opposite sides of the first and second connectors. These concave portions not only allow the deformable member to flex, making it easier to mount the first and second engage portions, but also ensure the integrity of the opposite sides of the first and second connectors. After the first and second engage portions are engaged within the hollow section, the complete surface structure of the first and second connectors helps to maintain the integrity of the magnetic toy's surface, thus enhancing the safety of the magnetic toy.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first engage portion comprises a first engage block and an engage plate extending from the first engage block, the engage plate being provided with convex teeth; the second engage portion comprises a second engage block and an engage groove provided within the second engage block, the engage groove mating with the convex teeth; one of the first and second engage blocks is provided with a plug portion, another is provided with a socket portion, and the plug portion and the socket portion are connected and a connecting direction is parallel to the engage plate; and at least one of the first engage block and the second engage block fills an end face of the hollow section. The mating of the first and second engage portions includes the engagement of the engage groove with the convex teeth, as well as the engagement of the plug portion and socket portion. The engagement of the engage groove with the convex teeth prevents detachment in the direction along the engage plate, while the mating of the plug and socket portions prevents detachment in the direction perpendicular to the engage plate. The engaging of the first and second engage portions provides high reliability against detachment.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the toy body is provided with an opening groove provided with a positioning post, the hollow section is formed between the positioning post and a bottom of the opening groove; and the mounting assembly encircles the positioning post through an annular structure formed by the first connector, the second connector, the first engage portion and the second engage portion, when the first engage portion and the second engage portion are engaged with each other. The mounting assembly tightly holds the positioning post when the first and second engage portions are engaged, achieving a reliable connection between the toy body and the mounting assembly.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, a side of the positioning post is provided on an inner side of a surface of the toy body to form a receiving groove for receiving the first connector, the second connector and the receiving member; and an outer side of the mounting assembly formed by the first connector, the second connector and the receiving member is flush with the surface of the toy body. After the first and second engage portions are engaged within the hollow section, the first connector, second connector, and receiving member are hidden within the receiving groove, causing the outer side of the mounting assembly to be flush with the surface of the toy body. This design ensures the integrity of the magnetic toy's surface, providing a smooth appearance with no sharp protrusions or depressions, enhancing safety for young children during play.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the toy body is shaped in a form of a flattened plate-like, the mounting assembly is provided on a flat side of the toy body, and the flat side of the toy body is a curved surface. The magnetic toy is a flat magnetic sheet, and multiple magnetic sheets are magnetically connected to form different shapes, fostering the development of young children's intelligence. The curved structure of the flat side makes it easier for the toy body to rotate around the flat side, ensuring reliable magnetic connections at any angle when different magnetic toys are attached along the flat side.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the flat side of the toy body is arranged in a polygonal shape; the flat side comprises a shortest side, and lengths of other flat sides are positive integer multiples of a length of the shortest side.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the flat side is provided with a plurality of mounting assemblies in a length direction, adjacent mounting assemblies are provided at an equal distance, and a distance between each mounting assembly at each end and adjacent flat side end is half the distance between the adjacent mounting assemblies. The magnets in the plurality of mounting assemblies are all used for magnetic connection, ensuring stability during magnetic connection of the magnetic toys. The equidistant arrangement of the adjacent mounting assemblies on the flat side makes it easier to assemble magnetic toys of different shapes but the same size specification.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the magnet is shaped as a rotary body, magnetic poles of the magnet are distributed on both sides of a rotary axis of the magnet, and the mounting assembly are provided with a receiving chamber that allows the magnet to rotate. The magnet can rotate within the receiving chamber, allowing the positions of its N-pole and S-pole to change with the rotation of the toy body, ensuring the reliability of the magnetic force.

In all of the example magnetic toys disclosed herein, each magnetic toy is provided with a friction pattern 106 inside the magnetic toy, to improve aesthetics as well as to enhance friction for easy access by young children. As in each of the embodiments shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the friction pattern 106 is approximately in the shape of a petal, and as in each of the embodiments shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the friction pattern 106 is triangular or approximately triangular.

It should be noted that in order to ensure the safety of the magnetic toy, the corners of the polygon enclosed by the flat sides 105 of the toy body 1 need to undergo a rounded transition, where the length of the flat side 105, as well as the length of the shortest side, refers to the length of the polygon when the polygon is not provided with rounded corners. The distance from the mounting assembly 2 to the end of the flat side 105 also refers to the length of the polygon when the polygon is not provided with rounded corners.
