Magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block
View Patent ↗A magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block includes a body, a light source mounted in the body, and an electrical conduction mechanism mounted in the body and including magnetic conducting columns extended out of one side of the body and electrically connected to the light sources and conducting plates extended out of an opposite side of the body and electrically connected to the light source. Thus, when inserting the magnetic conducting columns of one magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block into the body of another magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block, the magnetic conducting columns of one magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block are secured to the conducting plates of the other magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block by magnetic attraction and simultaneously electrically connected thereto.
1. A magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block, comprising:
a body comprising an accommodation chamber defined therein, a plurality of positioning holes located on one side thereof and a plurality of plug holes located on other sides thereof;
a light source mounted in said accommodation chamber of said body, said light source comprising an electrical substrate and a light-emitting device electrically coupled to said electrical substrate; and
an electrical conduction mechanism comprising a plurality of magnetic conducting columns and a plurality of conducting plates, each said magnetic conducting column having one end thereof electrically connected to said electrical substrate of said light source and an opposite end thereof inserted through one respective said positioning hole of said body and extended out of said body, each said conducting plate comprising a conducting portion, said conducting plates being mounted in said accommodation chamber inside said body and electrically connected to said electrical substrate with the said conducting portions thereof respectively aligned with said plug holes of said body; and
wherein said electrical substrate of said light source comprises a plurality of elastically deformable portions defined in said electrical substrate, and a connection is hole located on each said elastically deformable portion, said magnetic conducting columns of said electrical conduction mechanism each have two opposite ends thereof respectively terminating in a mating contact end and a connection end, each said connection end being fastened to one respective said connection hole, each said mating contact end being inserted through one respective said positioning hole;
wherein two same said magnetic positioning light-emitting toy blocks are connectable by inserting the said magnetic conducting columns of one said magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block into the respective said plug holes of the other said magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block, enabling the inserted said magnetic conducting columns to be connected to the said conducting plates of the other said magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block and electrically connected thereto; and
the magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block further comprises a support frame mounted in said accommodation chamber of said body, said support frame comprising a plurality of first support rods respectively vertically disposed in said accommodation chamber adjacent to the respective said positioning holes, a plurality of second support rods respectively horizontally connected between each two adjacent said first support rods remote from said positioning holes and a positioning groove located on the junction between each said first support rod and the respective connected two said second support rods; and said conducting plates that are disposed in said accommodation chamber of said body remote from said electrical substrate are respectively positioned in said positioning grooves.
2. The magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said body comprises a light transmissive body shell and a cover panel covering said light transmissive body shell; said plug holes are arranged on each of multiple sides of said light transmissive body shell; said positioning holes are arranged on said cover panel; said electrical substrate of said light source is arranged on an inner surface of said cover panel.
3. The magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said electrical substrate of said light source comprises a plurality of narrow, elongated, curved slots respectively inwardly extended from peripheral edges thereof; said elastically deformable portions are respectively defined by the respective said narrow, elongated, curved slots.
4. The magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each said elastically deformable portion is respectively aligned with said positioning holes, and a predetermined number of said conducting plates are disposed in said accommodation chamber of said body adjacent to said electrical substrate and electrically connected to the said connection ends of said magnetic conducting columns.
5. The magnetic positioning light-emitting toy block as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a predetermined number of said conducting plates are disposed in said accommodation chamber of said body remote from said electrical substrate and electrically connected to said electrical substrate by a respective lead wire.
