[0006] In the magnetic collecting piece game device of present utility model, the magnetic main piece comprises a tubular hollow body, a cylindrical mechanical cavity mounted inside the tubular hollow body; a flywheel mounted inside or outside the cylindrical mechanical cavity, the data disk is mounted inside the cylindrical mechanical cavity.

[0007] In the magnetic collecting piece game device of present utility model, the magnetic sensing pad and a spring used for resetting the magnetic sensing pad are mounted on the bottom side of the tubular hollow body, a magnetic block and a deflector rod extending to the data disk so as to enable the data disk to rotate for a predetermined angle after the magnetic sensing pad is hit are mounted on the magnetic sensing pad.

[0008] In the magnetic collecting piece game device of present utility model, a rope used for retracting the magnetic main piece by the player is wounded around the flywheel.

[0009] In the magnetic collecting piece game device of present utility model, a main cover is mounted on the top of the tubular hollow body; a data fenestra for showing the data value on the data disk and a rope hole for passing the rope are arranged on the main cover.

[0010] In the magnetic collecting piece game device of present utility model, a reset button used for resetting the data disk after rotating is mounted on the main clover.

[0011] In the magnetic collecting piece game device of present utility model, the metallic pieces provided with five small holes are divided into five areas, each hole is centered in each area, and corresponding data values are printed on the edge of the holes.

[0012] When implementing the magnetic collecting piece game device according to present utility model, following benefits can be obtained:

[0013] As a plurality of different data values are set on each metallic piece and a data disk marked with a plurality of data values is set on the magnetic main piece, when picking up, there are more results than the usual collecting piece game device which makes the magnetic collecting piece game device more funny and interesting.

BRIFE DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS:



[0014] So as to further explain the invention, an exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the below drawings, wherein:

FIG 1 is an exploded schematic diagram of the magnetic collecting piece game device according to present utility model;

FIG 2 is a schematic diagram of the assembling structure of the magnetic main piece according to present utility model;

FIG 3 is a schematic diagram of the metallic pieces according to present utility model.


DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS



[0015] FIG 1 is an exploded schematic diagram of the magnetic collecting piece game device according to present utility model. FIG 2 is a schematic diagram of the assembling structure of the magnetic main piece according to present utility model. Referring Fig.1 and 2, the magnetic main piece comprises a tubular hollow body 150, a cylindrical mechanical cavity 140 mounted inside the tubular hollow body 150, a flywheel 130 and a data disk 120 marked with a plurality of data values mounted inside the cylindrical mechanical cavity 140, (obviously, in other embodiment, the flywheel 130 can also be mounted outside the cylindrical mechanical cavity 140). A magnetic sensing pad 180 is mounted on the bottom side of the tubular hollow body 150. When the magnetic sensing pad 180 is hit, the data disk 120 will be rotated by a certain angle, so that the data value shown by the data disk 120 is changed. A rope (not shown in Fig.1 and 2 for concision) which can automatically retract or is elastic is passing through the rope hole 113 and tied to the magnetic main piece. The arrows in the FIG 1 represent the parts' moving direction when assembling the game device. The connections between the parts can be realized by a buckle or screw thread connection on the parts.

[0016] A spring 160 used for resetting the magnetic sensing pad 180 after each hitting is mounted on the bottom side of the tubular hollow body 150. A magnetic block 170 and a deflector rod 181 are mounted on the magnetic sensing pad. The deflector rod 181 is extending to the data disk 120 so as to enable the data disk 120 to rotate for a predetermined angle after the magnetic sensing pad 180 is hit.

[0017] A main cover 110 is mounted on the top of the tubular hollow body 150. A data fenestra 112 for showing the data value on the data disk 120 and a rope hole 13 for passing the rope are arranged on the main cover 110. A reset button 111 used for resetting the data disk 120 after rotating is mounted on the main cover 110. The reset button 111 has a function that after pelting the magnetic main piece 100 each time, as the magnetic sensing pad 180 has been hit, the deflector rod 181 on the magnetic sensing pad 180 enables the data disk 120 to rotate for a predetermined angle, so that the data value shown by the data disk 120 is changed, then the player may rotate the data disk 120 back for a certain angle through the reset button 111, so that the data value shown by the data disk 120 returns to the data value before pelting. Of course, the player also can press the reset button 111 again and again, so that the data disk 120 can be rotated until showing any data value on the data disk 120. Moreover, the player also can take the data value shown by the data disk 120 as strength of attack, so as to determine that whether the metallic pieces 200 (referring Fig.3) picked up by the magnetic main piece have been defeated.

[0018] FIG 3 is a schematic diagram of the metallic pieces according to present utility model. Each set of the magnetic collecting piece game device comprises a plurality of metallic pieces 200 which comprises a metal plane. The metallic pieces are divided into a plurality of areas. Each of the plurality of areas is marked with a corresponding data value. When the player pelts the magnetic main piece to the metallic pieces, the magnetic sensing pad 180 on the magnetic main piece can pick up the metallic pieces 200. The metallic pieces 200 are provided with a plurality of areas. The magnetic sensing pad 180 will attract a certain area on the metallic pieces 200. Then the player can decide who is winner by comparing the data value on the attracted area with that on the data disk 120 of the magnetic main piece. For example, in the embodiment shown in Fig.3, the metallic pieces 200 are provided with five small holes. The metallic pieces 200 are divided into five areas. Each hole is centered in each area, and corresponding data values are printed on the edge of the holes 201. When a certain metallic piece 200 is attracted by the magnetic main piece, the player can decide who is winner by comparing the data value shown by the data disk 120 of the magnetic main piece with the data value printed on the edge of the hole 201 close to the magnetic sensing pad 180 on the magnetic main piece.

[0019] The foregoing description is just the preferred embodiment of the utility model. It is not intended to limit the utility model. Any modifications, variations, and amelioration without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be included in the scope of the prevent invention.
