The gyroscope refers to a rigid body that rotates around a fulcrum at high speed. The gyroscope is one of the earliest entertainment tools. Nowadays, the gyroscope is still welcomed by people from all age groups.
The gyroscope in related art, after rotated by an external force, does not rotate for a long time, and will stop rotating soon due to the friction force of the rotating plane or other resistances. If the gyroscope needs to be rotated repeatedly, it needs repeatedly external forces. For gyroscope players, frequent operation not only consumes the physical strength, but also is troublesome, resulting in a very bad experience for gyroscope players. To solve this problem, a kind of electric gyroscope appears on the market, which utilizes the rotating of the motor to drive the gyroscope to continuously rotate.

The terms “vertical”, “horizontal,” “left”, “right” and similar expressions are used herein for purposes of illustration only.
Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art. The terms used herein are only for the purpose of describing embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. The term “and/or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
The present disclosure provides a gyroscope. In an embodiment, as shown in
An end of the output shaft 21 of the motor 2 away from the motor 2 is located outside the casing 1 and can rotate relative to the casing 1. The casing 1 can rotate around the rotation axis with the end of the output shaft 21 away from the motor 2 as a fulcrum.
The circuit board 31 is provided on the casing 1, and the circuit board 31 can rotate with the casing 1. The circuit board 31 is provided with a power supply 32 and a current amplification circuit, and the motor 2 and the power supply 32 can be connected through the amplification circuit, so that the current output by the power supply 32 is transmitted to the motor 2 after amplified by the current amplification circuit, so as to control the motor 2 to operate.
The gyroscope also includes at least two tilt switches 33, the at least two tilt switches 33 are connected in series on the amplification circuit, and can jointly control a conduction of the amplification circuit. The at least two tilt switches 33 are provided on the circuit board 31 at a preset angle interval. The tilt switch 33 has an off state and an on state. Normally, the tilt switch 33 is in the off state. Due to an internal structural characteristic, the tilt switch 33 will be in the on state.
The plurality of tilt switches 33 are arranged at intervals on the circuit board 31 to ensure that when the gyroscope is stationary at any angle, at least one tilt switch 33 is in the off state, and only when the casing 1 is rotated to apply a centrifugal force to all the tilt switches 33, the tilt switches 33 can be turned on, then the power supply 32 can transmit an electric energy to the motor 2, so that the motor 2 works. It should be noted that a placement of the tilt switch 33 on the circuit board 31 is based on a fact that it can be in the on state as soon as it is subjected to the centrifugal force generated by a rotation of the casing 1, and the tilt switch 33 cannot be reversed.
Compared with the gyroscope in the related art, the gyroscope in the present disclosure only needs to rotate the casing 1 to control the operation of the motor 2, without setting buttons on the casing 1, which can avoid the buttons provided on the surface, so as to ensure an integrity of the gyroscope, and make an appearance of the gyroscope more beautiful. In addition, when playing the gyroscope, it is necessary to turn the gyroscope. By setting the plurality of tilt switches 33, the internal current amplification circuit can be turned on while rotating the gyroscope, the motor 2 is rotated, and the gyroscope in the present disclosure can start to rotate like traditional gyroscopes and can continue to rotate until power supply 32 is out of electricity, which is more convenient to operate. It only needs to stop the gyroscope rotating with a hand when turning off, then the centrifugal force that tilt switch 33 is subjected to disappears, the tilt switches 33 are all disconnected, the amplification circuit is also disconnected, the motor 2 is disconnected from the power supply 32, and the motor 2 stops working.
By supporting the end of the output shaft 21 of the motor 2 on the rotating plane, the casing 1 can rotate around the output shaft 21 with the end of the output shaft 21 as the fulcrum. When the casing 1 rotates, the motor 2, the circuit board 31 and the tilt switch 33 are driven to rotate, and the plurality of tilt switches 33 are turned on at the same time. The motor 2 is turned on, since a main body of the motor 2 is fixedly connected to the casing 1, the casing is driven to rotate relative to the output shaft 21. The casing 1 continues to provide the centrifugal force to the tilt switch 33 when it rotates, so that the tilt switch 33 remains in the on state. That is, the casing 1 can not only rotate around the rotation axis with the output shaft 21 with the end of the output shaft 21 as the fulcrum, but the casing 1 can also rotate relative to the output shaft 21 driven by the motor 2, thereby realizing the continuous rotating of the gyroscope.
It should be noted that there is a certain frictional force f1 between the end of the output shaft 21 and the rotating plane. When the gyroscope rotates, an air resistance f2 is pressed on the casing 1. In addition, there is a force f3 and a force f4 interacted with the f3 inside the motor 2, which are generated between a rotor and a stator inside the motor 2. When an initial force is applied to the casing 1 to drive the gyroscope to rotate as a whole, although the motor 2 is started at the beginning, the initial force is relatively large, so that the casing 1 and the output shaft 21 move towards a same direction at the same time with the end of the output shaft 21 as the fulcrum. At this time, f1 is a dynamic friction force, and directions of f1 and f2 are directly opposite to the rotating direction of the gyroscope. When f1 and f2 gradually exhaust a kinetic energy provided by the initial force, a common gyroscope will gradually slow down until it stops rotating.
However, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, not only the casing 1 and the output shaft 21 rotate together, but also the motor 2 drives the casing 1 to rotate relative to the output shaft 21. When the output shaft 21 gradually tends to be stationary relative to the rotating plane, f3 also tends to be equal to f1 gradually. In an embodiment, f3 is smaller than a maximum static friction force between the end of the output shaft 21 and the rotating plane, so that the output shaft 21 will not rotate on the rotating plane. But f4 will drive the casing 1 to rotate relative to the output shaft 21. At this time, only the air resistance f2 prevents the rotating of the casing 1, and f4 is greater than f2 to ensure that the casing can continue to rotate. Therefore, in an embodiment, the output shaft 21 does not rotate, and the motor 2 drives the casing 1 to rotate relative to the rotating plane and the output shaft 21.
In addition, the circuit board 31 is also provided with the current amplification circuit, and the plurality of tilt switches 33 are connected in series in the current amplification circuit. When the gyroscope is stationary, at least one tilt switch 33 is in the off state. At this time, the current amplification circuit is in the off state, and the power supply 32 is disconnected from the motor 2. When the gyroscope is rotated to provide the centrifugal force to the plurality of tilt switches 33, all the tilt switches 33 are turned on, so that the current amplification circuit is turned on, then the power supply 32 is connected to the motor 2. By setting the current amplification circuit, the current output by the power supply 32 can be amplified to meet the requirements of driving the motor 2, so that the motor 2 can be driven by a smaller power supply 32, which saves energy and cost. In other words, in a premise of the same power supply 32, the power supply 32 connected to the motor 2 with the current amplification circuit can drive the motor 2 with a higher power to work than the power supply 32 connected to the motor 2 without the current amplification circuit, which is conducive to provide a greater motivation to the rotating of the gyroscope. It should be noted that a rated current of the tilt switch 33 is sometimes smaller than the current required for the operation of the motor 2. If the current exceeds the rated current of the tilt switch 33, the tilt switch 33 will be easily damaged. When the current of the switch 33 is within its rated current, the motor 2 can also be driven to work through setting the current amplification circuit.
By combining the current amplification circuit and the plurality of tilt switches 33 according to the method of the solution of the present disclosure, it is possible to better control the on/off of the current amplification circuit.
In an embodiment, as shown in
A positive pole of the power supply 32 is electrically connected to a source S of the MOS transistor 34 through an electrical connector 35, one end of the tilt switch 33 connected in series is electrically connected to a gate G of the MOS transistor 34 through the electrical connector 35, and another end of the tilt switch 33 is electrically connected to a negative pole of the power supply 32 through the electrical connector 35. Two ends of the resistor 36 are respectively electrically connected to the positive pole of the power supply 32 and the gate G of the MOS transistor 34 through the electrical connector 35, and two electrodes of the motor 2 are respectively electrically connected to a drain D of the MOS transistor 34 and the negative pole of the power supply 32. Thus, a simple amplifying 10 circuit can be formed. When the gyroscope is not rotating, K1 and K2 are in an off state. By utilizing a property of the MOS transistor 34, an entire circuit is in an off state at this time, and the power supply 32 does not supply the power to the motor 2.
When the gyroscope is rotated, the two switches K1 and K2 are both connected, the drain D and the source S of the MOS transistor 34 are connected through a nature of the MOS transistor 34, and the entire circuit is connected. The power supply 32 supplies the power to the motor 2, and the current output by the power supply 32 can be amplified by the MOS transistor 34.
It should be noted that the current amplification circuit can also use triodes for amplifying, and the plurality of tilt switches 33 in series can also be provided in the amplification circuit using triodes for current amplifying to control the on/off of the amplification circuit. In other embodiments, there may be other types of current amplification circuits, which will not be repeated here. It needs to be clarified that no matter what kind of current amplification circuit is adopted, it is necessary to use the plurality of series-connected tilt switches 33 to jointly control the on/off of the circuit, and the plurality of tilt switches 33 can only be fully turned on when the gyroscope rotates, thereby amplifying the current.
In an embodiment, the power supply 32 is a rechargeable battery. A charging circuit electrically connected to the power supply 32 is provided on the circuit board 31, and a positive charging pin 311 is provided on the charging circuit, or a plurality of positive charging pins 311 are provided in parallel. A negative charging pin 312 is also provided on the charging circuit, or a plurality of negative charging pins 311 are provided in parallel.
It should be noted that there is no specific limit to a number of positive charging pins 311 and negative charging pins 312. For example, one positive charging pin 311 and one negative charging pin 312 can be provided, one positive charging pin 311 and a plurality of negative charging pins 312 can be provided, or a plurality of positive charging pins 311 and one negative charging pin 312 can be provided. When the plurality of positive charging pins 311 or negative charging pins 312 are provided, the plurality of positive charging pins 311 or the plurality of negative charging pins 312 are independent of each other and will not affect their respective functions, that is, one of the plurality of positive charging pins and one of the plurality of negative charging pins 312 can be selected to charge the power supply 32. In the present disclosure, one positive charging pin 311 and one negative charging pin 312 are set as an example for illustration.
A length direction of the positive charging pin 311 and a length direction of the negative charging pin 312 are perpendicular to a surface of the circuit board 31. The positive charging pin 311 and the negative charging pin 312 can be connected to an external charging current to charge the power supply 32. By setting the power supply 32 as the rechargeable battery, and by setting the positive charging pin 311 and the negative charging pin 312, the power supply 32 can be charged, so that the power supply 32 can be used repeatedly and frequent replacement of the power supply 32 is avoided.
In a specific embodiment, as shown in

A shape and a size of the mounting groove 131 are consistent with a shape and a size of the motor 2, so that the motor 2 can be plugged and fitted in the mounting groove 131. The output shaft of the motor 2 is arranged away from the driving portion 111, and the output shaft 21 passes through the lower casing 12 in a direction away from the driving portion 111.
One end of the mounting member 13 close to the driving portion 111 is provided with a plurality of openings. A peripheral wall of the motor 2 can extend out of the opening, so that fingers can be easily abutted against the peripheral wall of the motor 2 through the openings, and the motor 2 can be taken out from the mounting groove 131.
It is worth mentioning that a distance between the end of the mounting member 13 close to the driving portion 111 and the driving portion 111 is greater than a distance between the end of the lower casing 12 close to the driving portion 111 and the driving portion 111, so that a height difference is formed between the end of the mounting member 13 close to the driving portion 111 and the end of the lower casing 12 close to the driving portion 111.
In an embodiment, the height difference is set to be equal to a thickness of the circuit board 31, and an external dimension of the circuit board 31 is set to match the shape and size of a cross section of the placing groove 121.

In an embodiment, an outer wall of the lower casing 12 can be fixedly connected to the peripheral wall of the accommodating chamber 112 in an interference fit manner. Alternatively, two through grooves 122 arranged at intervals are penetrated on the outer wall of the end of the lower casing 12 close to the driving portion 111, the two through grooves 122 form two openings on the peripheral wall of the lower casing 12, and the two openings can cut the peripheral wall of the lower casing 1212 between the two through slots 122 to form a mounting plate 123. The end of the mounting plate 123 away from the driving portion 111 is integrated with the lower casing 12, other ends of the mounting plate 123 are separated from the lower casing 12, and a connecting protrusion 124 is provided at the end of the mounting plate 123 away from the placing groove 121. When the lower casing 12 is inserted into the accommodating chamber 112, the connecting protrusion 124 is abutted against a side wall of the accommodating chamber 112, and the mounting plate 123 is forced to deviate toward the mounting member 13. At this time, the mounting plate 123 is deformed and a pressure towards the side wall of the accommodating chamber 112 can be applied to the connecting protrusion 124 to make the connecting protrusion 124 and the side wall of the accommodating chamber 112 press against each other, thereby fastening the lower casing 12 and the upper casing 11.
In a specific embodiment, a plurality of fixing members 40 fixedly connected to the lower casing 12 are arranged between the peripheral wall of the lower casing 12 and the peripheral wall of the mounting member 13, and a number of the fixing members 40 is equal to the number of the positive charging pin 311, the negative charging pins 312. A position of the fixing member 40 needs to be set so that when the circuit board 31 is abutted on the mounting member 13, an arrangement of the fixing member 40 is consistent with an arrangement of the positive charging pins 311 and the negative charging pins 312 on the circuit board 31, that is, both the positive charging pin 311 and the negative charging pin 312 can be directly opposite to one fixing member 40. A through hole 401 is provided on the fixing member 40 in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the circuit board 31.

By setting the fixing member 40 and the through hole 401, the positive charging pin 311 and the negative charging pin 312 can be respectively inserted in the corresponding through hole 401. Both the positive charging pin 311 and the negative charging pin 312 can pass through the end of the through hole 401 away from the driving portion 111 to protrudes from the lower casing 12, so as to facilitate a connection with the external charging device.
In an embodiment, the lower casing 12 is provided with a locating member 125, and the circuit board 31 is provided with a locating groove 313 for plugging and fitting with a part of the locating member 125. It should be noted that a position of the locating member 125 in the lower casing 12 and a position of the locating groove 313 on the circuit board 31 need to be set according to a cooperation between the positive charging pin 311, the negative charging pin 312 and the fixing member 40.

In an embodiment, the end of the output shaft 21 away from the motor 2 is sleeved with a fulcrum sleeve 50, and an end of the fulcrum sleeve 50 away from the motor 2 is arc-shaped. It should be noted that the fulcrum sleeve 50 can be made of silica gel or rubber material, which has a relatively large friction coefficient, so that the fulcrum sleeve 50 has a relatively large static friction force with the rotating plane. In this way, when the gyroscope rotates, the output shaft 21 is relative stationary to the rotating plane, which ensures that the gyroscope can stably and continuously rotate.
In an embodiment, the circuit board 31 is with a centrally symmetrical shape such as a circle or a rectangle, the circuit board 31 is arranged laterally in the casing 1, that is, the rotation axis is perpendicular to the board surface of the circuit board 31, and the gravity center of the circuit board 31 lies on the rotation axis.

For example, if two tilt switches 33 are provided, an angle between the two tilt switches 33 can be set to 180°. If three tilt switches 33 are arranged, the angle between two adjacent tilt switches 33 can be set to 60°. Of course, when three or more tilt switches 33 are provided, these tilt switches 33 do not need to be arranged at equal intervals. It only need to ensure that at least one tilt switch 33 can be disconnected when the gyroscope is placed stationary.
The present disclosure also provides a charging device for charging the gyroscope. In an embodiment, as shown in
