Definitions
- the present invention relates to a magnetic toy set. More particularly, the magnetic toy set can form structures having various shapes by using a connecting rod having a magnet and a magnetic substance to be attached to the magnet, a panel and a metal ball, which are reduced in weight and have improved constructions.
- toys There are various kinds of toys that allow children to improve their creativity by assembling blocks having various shapes in many different ways so as to form structures having desired shapes.
- a block-type toy kit which allows children to stack or combine blocks of various shapes so as to form structures of desired shapes.
- the block-type toy kit has the following problems. That is, there is a limit to the number of blocks having each shape, and the shape of the structure formed by assembling the blocks perpendicular or horizontal to each other is simple. Further, when there is no block having a particular shape or the number thereof is not enough, children assemble cannot the form desired structures or only can form clumsy structures.
- the conventional magnetic toy set includes a connecting rod, a metal ball and a panel such that structures are formed by connecting the connecting rod, the magnetic ball and the panel to each other.
- the connecting rod has magnets on both ends thereof, and is formed in a straight or curved shape by covering the outside thereof with resin so that the surfaces of the magnets are exposed.
- the metal ball is connected to the connecting rod by a magnetic force, and the panel is fitted between the connecting rod and the metal ball.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating the conventional magnetic toy set
- Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the connecting rod of the conventional magnetic toy set.
- the conventional magnetic toy set includes a connecting rod 1 having magnets 2 on both ends thereof, a metal ball 5 that is attached to the magnet 2 of the connecting rod 1 by a magnetic force, and a panel 7 that is coupled to the inside of a structure formed by the connecting rod 1 and the metal ball 5.
- the connecting rod 1 is formed by attaching the respective magnets 2 to both ends of a metal rod 3 and then covering the outside of the metal rod 3 and the magnets 2 with a resin layer 4.
- the magnets 2 attached to both ends of the connecting rod 1 are exposed to the outside.
- the connecting rod 1 is formed to have a circular cross-section. If necessary, the connecting rod 1 may be formed to a polygonal cross-section.
- the panel 7 is formed to have a polygonal shape such as a triangle or quadrangle in plan view, and includes a groove 8 having a predetermined depth on the side surfaces thereof. Since the panel 7 includes grooves 8 and 9, the connecting rod 1 or the metal ball 5 is easily connected to the side surface of the panel 7.
- the conventional magnetic toy set has the above-mentioned configuration, a plurality of connecting rods 1 are connected in a radial direction on the metal ball 5 such that the connecting rods 1 are connected to each other at various angles in addition to connections in a perpendicular or horizontal direction. Therefore, it is possible to form structures of various shapes by combining the connecting rods and the metal balls.
- the connecting rod 1 is heavy because the metal rod 3 and the magnets 2 provided on both ends thereof are covered with the resin layer 4.
- the resin layer 4, covering the side of the metal rod 3, has a predetermined thickness on the surface of the metal rod 3 in order to provide durability enough to prevent deformation of the connecting rod 1.
- the thickness of the resin layer 4 causes low magnetic flux density in response to magnets of another connecting rod 1.
- the connecting rods are not securely attached to each other, and it is also difficult to maintain the shape formed by the connecting rods.
- a magnetic force is not generated at the side of the connecting rod 1, and the panel 7 is made of resin or the like. Therefore, the connecting rod 1 and the panel 7 are not securely coupled to each other.
- the conventional connecting rod 1 is formed through insert injection molding, molding costs are increased to manufacture connecting rods 1 of various shapes.
- connecting rods 1 are joined together by a magnetic force.
- the connecting rods 1 joined at the middle position of the structure are provided with no support, it is difficult to maintain the shape thereof against an external force. As a result, the connecting rods 1 are likely to be separated from each other.
- each of the magnets 2 provided on both ends of the connecting rod 1 has one of polarities, the magnets 2 are affected by a repulsive force generated between the same polarity and an attractive force generated between different polarities. Therefore, in order to connect the connecting rods 1 to each other, the magnet 2 of one connecting rod 1 must be disposed to have an opposite polarity to that of another connecting rod 1, which causes inconvenience. In addition, it is difficult to form desired structures of various shapes. Specifically, when at least two structures are individually formed and connected to each other, if portions of the two structures to be directly connected to each other have the same polarity, one structure should be formed again so that the portions to be directly connected to the other structure have opposite polarity.
- the size of the metal ball 5 is limited, and it is difficult to form a large-sized structure due to the total weight of the connecting rods 1 and the metal balls 5.
- the conventional panel 7 is simply fitted in the structure formed of the connecting rods 1 and the metal balls 5. As a result, despite the small impact, the panel 7 is separated from the structure. In addition, since a gripping portion is not additionally formed on the panel 7, it is difficult to detach the panel 7 from the structure of the connecting rods 1 and the metal balls 5 once the panel 7 is coupled to the inside thereof.
- the panel 7 does not have a separate coupling force with respect to the connecting rods 1 or the metal balls 5. Accordingly, when the structure is tall, the structure falls down due to instability of the lower part of the structure. Accordingly, sub-structures such as lower structures should be coupled to one another by an adhesive or the like in order to form a structure having a large size. For this reason, it is difficult to reuse the magnetic toy set due to the adhesive.
- a magnet toy set includes a metal ball that is made of a magnetic material, a connecting rod that has magnets at both ends thereof, and a panel that is coupled to an area formed by connecting the metal ball and the connecting rod.
- the connecting rod includes a connecting rod body that is made of a ferromagnetic substance and has a shape of a pipe with a predetermined thickness, and a mounting cap that has one end forming a rod-shaped protrusion to be inserted into an end portion of the connecting rod body and the other end forming a head provided with a magnet receiving portion for receiving the magnet.
- a magnet toy set includes a metal ball that is made of a magnetic material, a connecting rod that has magnets at both ends thereof, and a panel that is coupled to an area formed by connecting the metal ball and the connecting rod.
- the connecting rod includes a connecting rod body that is made of a ferromagnetic substance and has a shape of a pipe with a predetermined thickness, the magnets that are provided at both ends of the connecting rod body and each have a diameter greater than an inner diameter of the connecting rod body, and magnet fixing caps that are formed in the shape of a cylinder having a mounting protrusion curved inwards at one side thereof and are coupled to the connecting rod body so as to prevent separation of the magnets.
- the metal ball is formed in the shape of a shell that has a predetermined thickness and a cavity therein.
- the panel has grip holes bored through both surfaces thereof so as to grip the panel with the grip holes by fingers or the like, and a magnet receiving portion is provided at the central portion of the panel so as to mount a magnet therein.
