Description

{COMPUTERIZED YO-YO}

This application claims priority benefit from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61/940, 853, filed on February 18, 2014.

The present invention relates to a computerized yo-yo toy. The computerized yo-yo includes devices that entertain the yo-yo user as programmable lighting, sound, and other functions that operate according to their motions and conditions. In addition, the computerized yo-yo can include, for example, devices for controlling the motion of a computerized yo-yo, such as an electric clutch and an electric motor.

YoYo is one of the oldest toys. It is believed to originate in China, but the first recorded yo - yo toy appears in Greek paintings about 500 BC. Modern yo-yo toys use the same concept as ancient yo-yo toys, but can be made of modern materials (eg plastic or metal alloys) and can have different shapes (eg bow-shaped yo-yo) And may include modern mechanical techniques (e. G., Ball bearing rotations).

Some commercially available yo-yo toys may include electronic components in addition to mechanical components. Conventional yo-yo toys include a battery, a light, and a mechanism to turn the light on and off for additional interest.

Some commercially available yo-yo toys may also include improved mechanical components to further enhance the fun of playing with yo-yo toys. For example, yo-yos sold in the current market include a long "slip" (rapid rotation of yo-yo at the end of the line) and an automatic "wake- Up "(quick return of the yo-yo from the" sleep "position to the user's hand). Yet another improved combination of mechanical and electrical components permitting improved control of such yo-yo motion is described in U.S. Patent Nos. 7,448,934 and 8,187,052.

The present invention is directed to a computerized version that includes improved electrical, mechanical, and electro-mechanical components to provide interesting functionality and further improve the fun experience of playing with yo-yo toys. Although the invention has been described with respect to specific embodiments, the principles of the invention may be obviously applied beyond the specific embodiments of the invention described herein. Moreover, in the description of the present invention, specific details have been omitted so as not to obscure the inventive concept of the present invention. The omitted details are within the knowledge of those skilled in the art.

The drawings and detailed description in this application merely relate to exemplary embodiments of the present invention. For the sake of brevity, other embodiments of the present invention utilizing the principles of the present invention are not described herein and are not specifically shown in the drawings. It is noted that, unless otherwise stated, similar or identical elements in the figures may be represented by similar or identical reference numerals.

The invention may also be applied to other similar rotating mechanisms, such as, in whole or in part, for example, Frisbee disks, tops (or spin tops), dreidels, .

The purpose of all games is to please the user of the game. Thus, a game with many functions and options can be more fun, that is, it can provide a better experience. Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of a simple conventional yo-yo. The conventional yo-yo body 100 may be made of conventional materials such as wood or ceramics, or of modern materials such as metal alloys, plastics or other materials. The yo-yo body 100 comprises two round halves, which may be planar, spherical, conical, or any other suitable rounded shape. The yo-yo accelerator 130 connects the two round halves of the yo-yo body 100, so that the yo-yo exhibits a symmetrical-radial shape suitable for rotating toys. One end of the string 110 is attached to the yo-yo accelerator 130, and the other end is connected to the stationary ring 120. The retaining ring 120 may be made of any suitable material or may be in the form of a simple ring formed at the end of the string 110. The end of the string 110 attached to the yoyoaxel 130 may be tightly connected or may form a loose loop around the yoyoaxel 130. [

If the end of the string 110 is tightly connected around the yo-yo accelerator 130, the yo-yo game is very simple. First, the user winds the string 110 in a narrow groove between two round halves of the yawing body 100 (the term "wind" or "rewind" is used herein to refer to the yaw axis 130 or other part of the yaw To create a plurality of overlapping loops of line 110, as will be required at the beginning of the game, and will be described in detail later). Next, the user throws or sends the yo-yo main body 100 away or down with the holding ring 120 held. The pulling force caused by the expansion of the wound line 110 causes the yawing body 100 to rotate and when the line 110 is completely unwound it begins to rewind itself around the yoyoaxel 130 , The yo-yo main body 100 rolls upward again toward the user's hand, allowing the user to catch the yo-yo. The user may also use hand movements to add inertia to the yo-yo and repeat the up and down movements of the yo-yo. These yo-yos provide a limited and fun experience for users.

On the other hand, if the end of the string 110 forms a loose loop around the yo-yo accelerator 130, the yo-yo game may be more interesting, thus providing a better interesting experience. As with the simple game above, the user rolls the string 110 and throws or sends the yo-yo main body 100 away or down. Once the string 110 is fully extended, a loose loop located at the end of the string 110 around the yoyoaxel 130 causes the yoyo body 100 to rotate, while the string 110 remains fully extended. Allow them to continue. In terms of yo-yo users, the state of such a yo-yo is referred to as a "sleep" state, and people use this yo-yo "sleep" as a "sleeping" or similar term. Like the yo-yo "slip ", the user can perform a yo-yo" trick ", which is a sequence of yo-yo movements showing the user's skill and agility, all of which, (Ie, the yo-yo preserves its angular momentum similar to a gyroscope). When the setting of the trick is completed, the user performs short and sharp movements of the arm, hand or finger to cause the loose loop to be tightened by friction at the end of the string 110 located around the yo-yo accelerator 130 , Causing the string 110 to rewind around the yoyoaxel 130, thus causing the yoyo body 100 to roll upwards towards the user's hand. This operation of the yo-yo is called a yo-yo "wake-up", and people use this yo-yo "wake-up" as a "wake-up" or similar term.

Of course, in this "slip" state, the yo-yo is in contact with the loose loops at the end of the string 110 and the friction between the yoyo axel 130 and the two half inner walls of the string 110 and the yo- Some of its rotational speed can be lost by friction. Modern yo-yo toys can use ball bearings in a "slip" state to reduce the loss of their rotational speed. Figure 2 is a schematic side view of a yoy with a ball bearing. Like the conventional yo-yo, this yo-yo consists of the yo-yo main body 100 connected by the yo-yo axel 130. However, for such a matter, the ball bearing 210 is disposed around the yaw axle 130. The ball bearing 210 includes an inner ring attached to the yaw axle 130 and includes an outer casing that is rigidly connected to the rope 110 and an outer casing that is rotated between the inner ring and the outer casing to permit relatively low friction Balls or cylinders. Other devices without the balls or cylinders may also be referred to as ball bearings, and such devices may be considered the same, as long as they provide the same purpose of minimizing friction of the inner portion with respect to the outer portion and allowing smooth rotation have. Such other devices may use coatings with Teflon, silicone or other polymers, or other methods of reducing friction between the inner and outer portions of the device to allow for smooth rotation with minimal friction between the two portions have. Of course, it is also possible to assemble the ball bearing 210 so that the yo-yo accelerator 130 forms the inner ring of the ball bearing 210. This ball bearing style yo-yo operates similar to a conventional yo-yo with a loose loop at the end of the row 110 around the yo-yo axel 130. [ However, because the ball bearing 210 virtually eliminates friction between the string 110 and the yaw axle 130, the ball bearing yoyo will lose much less of its rotational speed than the conventional yoyo, The trick can be performed well, or the time of the longer "sleep" state can be enjoyed. Therefore, the ball bearing type yoyo provides a more intense and interesting experience than the conventional yoyo.

Although the ball bearing type yo-yo can maintain its rotational speed more than the conventional yo-yo, the "wake-up" of the ball-bearing type yo-yo is generally more difficult than the "wake-up" of the conventional yo-yo. The short movement of the hand causes the friction of the ball bearing to be sufficiently increased to form a small new loop and / or knot of the string 110 and to allow a new loop and / or knot of the string 110 to pass through the inner wall of the yo- It is necessary to ensure that sufficient initial friction with one of the axles 130 will start to rewind the rope 110 around the axle 130, thereby reliably inducing the rolling motion in the upward direction of the yo-yo 2 may be used to assist in creating an initial friction for "waking up" the yo-yo with the inner wall surface roughness of the yawing body 100 proximate to the yoyo axel 130 have). This shows an interesting dilemma in the design of ball-bearing yo-yo. On the one hand, the wide spacing between the two round halves of the yaw body 100 will reduce the friction between the string 110 and the yaw body 100 in the "slip" state. On the other hand, too wide spacing can make yoyo's " waking up "more difficult, because more" tough "movement of the hands occurs between the line 110 and the inner wall of the yaw body 100 And may be required to generate sufficient initial friction. This dilemma is mitigated by some embodiments of the present invention.

3 is a schematic diagram of devices that may be included in the computerized yo-yo 300. Fig. The physical structure of the computerized yo-yo 300 may be similar to the ball-bearing type yo-yo shown in Fig. 2, but the computerized yo-yo 300 includes additional devices as described herein. The invention may be implemented with operating subsets of the devices as shown in FIG. 3, or may be implemented with all of the devices shown in FIG.

At the heart of the computerized query 300 is the computation and control unit 305. The arithmetic and control unit 305 is configured to receive measurements indicative of movement of the computerized yo-yo 300 together, or separately, from the sensing device, the accelerometer device 315 and the tension-based devices 350. The computing and controlling device 305 is connected to the computing and controlling device 305 through the optical display device 320, the sound reproducing device 325, the auxiliary device 330, the electric clutch device 335 and the electric motor device 340 "), To generate control signals that control the operation of elements of the computerized yo-yo 300 that enhance the interesting experience. The computing and controlling device 305 may receive feedback information from each of the interesting elements of its state and function. The computing and controlling device 305 may be connected to a communication device 345 capable of receiving data for an arithmetic and control device 305 from an external device and may receive data from the arithmetic and control device 305 (The communication device 345 can send and receive data from the tension-based device 350). The external device may be a wireless link that may be a WiFi (IEEE 802.11 protocol), a Bluetooth protocol, or another communication protocol that provides a communication link between the external device and the communication device 345 of the computerized yo- A portable device such as a smart phone or tablet that can be connected to the communication device 345, and the like. The computing and controlling device 305 and the communication device 345 may be implemented separately or may be implemented in the same solid-state electronic microcontroller, such as, for example, the Texas Instruments CC2541 SimpleLink Bluetooth smart and pro- Chip. ≪ / RTI >

The battery 310 provides power to other devices within the computerized yo-yo 300 and is connected to other devices included in a particular embodiment of the computerized yo-yo 300. [ The connection of the battery is not shown in detail in FIG. 3 for the sake of brevity. One or more batteries may be used within the computerized 300. The battery 310 can be charged as a wired or wireless power supply, or it can be charged using an electric motor device 340, such as a generator.

The accelerometer device 315 measures the acceleration value of the computerized yo-yo 300 and sends the measured acceleration value to the calculation and control device 305. The acceleration value of the computerized yo-yo 300 is a series of time-acceleration measurements at one portion of the computerized yo-yo 300, or at various other portions. The acceleration value may represent acceleration, derivative of acceleration, or any other function or values that can be used to determine acceleration. Accelerometer technology is a well-known technology. Accelerometer devices are widely available in the marketplace, and custom accelerometer devices are common in the industry, especially accelerometer devices are made of piezoelectric ceramic materials. The accelerometer device 315 may be fabricated by pressing or bending a piezoelectric ceramic material but may also be fabricated by any other technique suitable for manufacturing any mechanical, electrical, piezoelectric, piezoelectric, solid-state or accelerometer device 315 .

Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of an optional configuration of the accelerometer in the accelerometer device 315 of the computerized yo-yo 300 (Figure 4 is not scaled). The accelerometer device 315 may be disposed at the center of the yawing main body 100. Although four separate accelerometer components 41OA, 410B, 410C, and 410D are shown in FIG. 4, any number of accelerometer components may be used. Each of the accelerometer components 410A-410D may be one accelerometer device that includes three different accelerometer units (one for each spatial dimension), or may measure acceleration in either direction that is radial in FIG. 4 May be one accelerometer unit. If the yaw body 100 rotates about the yo-yo accelerator 130 and rolls up and down but does not move sideways, the configuration shown in Fig. 4 may be sufficient to measure the acceleration value of such movement have. However, since yo-yo can cause "jitter" of out-of-control, it may be helpful to measure the acceleration perpendicular to the major rotational plane of the yo-yo. If the accelerometer components 410A-410D shown in FIG. 4 are each one accelerometer unit, and thus each of them measures only one acceleration value (radiation direction), then the additional accelerometer component (not shown in FIG. 4) Can be used to measure the acceleration value perpendicular to the principal rotational plane of the yo-yo. Additional accelerometer components may have properties different from those of the accelerometer components 410A-410D because vertical acceleration values are expected to be significantly less than radial acceleration values.

The acceleration value is dependent on the motion of the computer 300 when it is used, and the purpose of measuring the acceleration value is to extract information about the motion of the computer 300. The extracted information is used to apply control to the fun elements and may be transmitted to an external device for further analysis, storage or display. The motion information may be an acceleration in all parts of the computerized yo-yo 300 and may be an acceleration derivative in all parts of the computerized yo-yo 300, a center position of the computerized yo-yo 300, The rotational speed of the computerized yo-yo 300, or the fun factor, or any other information that can be used for further analysis, storage or display by the external device.

The measured acceleration values may be used to extract information about the state of the computerized yo-yo 300, where one state is one in which the computerized yo-yo 300 is in a certain position, moves to a specific motion, Or is used as a time event, and will be clearly understood by the following examples. This example is of a ball-bearing yo-yo game and contains the following seven orders of states:

State 1: catch yo yo

State 2: User throws a yo-yo

State 3: Move down the yo-yo

State 4: Stop moving down at the end of the line

State 5: "Sleep" state

State 6: Short tug of line to "wake-up" yo-yo

State 7: Movement of the yo-yo

FIG. 5 illustrates an example of an acceleration curve, which represents a representation of the time-base acceleration value for one of the accelerometer components 410A-410D for the game sequence listed above. Figure 5 is a time of the X-axis in milliseconds (ms), Y axis is m / s are the acceleration value of the ^second unit.

During state 1, as indicated by S1 in Fig. 5, the acceleration values are very small (if the yo-yo strikes another object, is firmly held in the hand, or hit on the floor, a very short but high acceleration peak except). The state 1 can be detected as the median value is a low level of the filtered acceleration value average.

During state 2, as indicated by S2 in Fig. 5, the user has thrown a yo-yo with sharp movements of the arm, hand or wrist to accelerate the yo-yo away or downward.

The acceleration in this state is characterized by a gentle curve where the amplitude of the curve and the slowly varying slope (the derivative of the acceleration) depend on the strength and the technique of the user. State 2 can be detected by a significant increase in the average of the acceleration values without a sharp increase in acceleration.

State 3 begins at the end of the throwing operation of the arm, hand or wrist, and the yo-yo is released from the user's hand and begins to roll down at high speed. In this state, as indicated by S3 in Fig. 5, the acceleration value measured by the radially positioned accelerometer component (similar to that shown in Fig. 4) can reach 1500 m / s < ² & have. When the yo-yo moves downward, the pulling force of gravity increases the rotational speed of the yo-yo. The rotation of the yo-yo is represented in the segment S3 by semi-periodic perturbation and is caused by pulling force of the earth's gravity, which affects the accelerometer component in each half revolution in the opposite direction. The increase in the rotational speed is indicated by the increase in the amplitude of the acceleration value and by the shortening of the time intervals between the half-periodic perturbations. State 3 can be detected by a significant instantaneous increase in the derivative of the acceleration curve followed by a semi-periodic perturbation with an increased average amplitude and an increased frequency, which leads to the minimum and maximum points on the acceleration curve May be detected.

State 4 occurs when the string is fully extended and its pull stops the downward movement of the yo-yo. At this stage, as indicated by S4 in Fig. 5, the abrupt braking of the downward motion of the yo-yo will generate a very strong peak in the acceleration curve. The actual value of the acceleration peak in segment S4 depends on various factors such as, for example, the initial throw, the mass of the yo-yo, and the elasticity of the row. State 4 can be detected by a very large peak of the acceleration curve.

State 5 is in the "sleep" state and is indicated by segment S5 in Fig. Similar to the latter half of State 3, the acceleration curve in State 5 represents the semi-periodic perturbations caused by the pulling forces of earth's gravity. The slow decrease in rotational speed due to friction is indicated by a slow decrease in the amplitude of the acceleration curve and an increase in the time interval between the semi-periodic perturbations. The length of the S5 segment is much longer than the length shown in Fig. 5, which will allow the user of the yo-yo to perform other moves (yo-yo tricks) of the yo-yo starting from the "sleep" State 5 can be detected by identifying the gentle average value of the acceleration curve and the minimum and maximum points of the acceleration curve.

State 6 occurs when the user decides to return the yo-yo by hand and performs a short descent and ascending movement of the arm, hand or finger to "wake up" the yo-yo, as indicated by S6 in Fig. . The short descent movement releases the string, the short ascending movement tightens the loop, and / or creates a knot sufficiently close to the inner wall of the yaw body to cause rewinding of the string around the axel, resulting in the upward movement of the yo-yo do. The initial drop bounce can produce a short reduction in the difference between the minimum and maximum points of the acceleration because the yo-yo will be in a nearly free-fall state. Followed by sharp peaks of the acceleration curve due to the abrupt change in yo-yo motion. The start of state 6 can be detected by a short reduction of the difference between the minimum and maximum points of the acceleration curve, followed by large peaks in the acceleration curve.

State 7 is the rising cloud of yoyo, as indicated by S7 in Fig. The acceleration curves exhibit the same periodic perturbations, as in states 3 and 5. State 7 can be detected by a very low change in acceleration values compared to State 6.

Figure 5 shows that information about yaw motion and state can be determined by analyzing the acceleration values. The analysis requires extraction of parameters such as, for example, acceleration derivative values, locations and values of the maximum and minimum points, and requires a change location in the parameters and the like. Such parameters may be used to control other parameters, such as the center position of the yo-yo, the center velocity of the yo-yo, the rotational speed of the yo-yo, or the yo-yo to provide information about its position, Can be used to extract (i.e., compute) other parameters that are present. Although FIG. 5 provides an example of an acceleration curve for one of the accelerometer components 410A-410D, the acceleration values from other accelerometer components can be combined and used for analysis of the yaw position, motion, or state. For example, an average of the acceleration values from all of the accelerometer components 410A-410D can provide information about movement of the yo-yo center. We will call the parameters described above as "state variables ", which may be extracted by the computation and control unit 305 to be used for control of other devices in the computerized query 300, or And may be transmitted to an external device using the communication device 345. [ The state parameters may initially be all parameters that are extracted based on the acceleration values and include, but are not limited to, the acceleration values themselves.

It is possible to use a low precision accelerometer as long as it can achieve interesting goals in the computerized version 300, which can be cheaper. Although such a low precision accelerometer can not provide a measurement of acceleration values with the precision always required to determine the exact position and exact movement of the computerized yo-yo 300, such a low precision accelerometer has sufficient accuracy To extract the state parameters sufficiently.

Using the tension-based device 350 may help improve the detection of yaw movement and condition and may include measuring the tension at the end of the string 110 near the fixed band 120, To the arithmetic and control unit 305. The tension-based device 350 may be constructed of one piezoelectric ceramic element, but it may be manufactured by any other technique necessary to fabricate all of the mechanical, electrical, piezoelectric properties, piezoresistance, solid- . Power supply and data transmission may be via line 110 or tension-based device 350 may include a micro-battery for power supply and may include an auxiliary communication device for communicating with yo-yo communication device 345 . In particular, tension-based device 350 may exhibit a large rise in tension value at the beginning of states 3, 4, and 6, and so it may help to detect start cases of these conditions. Thus, the state parameters may include tension values and all parameters extracted based on the tension values.

The arithmetic and control unit 305 receives the acceleration value from the accelerometer device 315 (or together with the tension value from the tension-based device 350 or separately), the extracted state parameter, Such as the optical display device 320, the sound reproducing device 325, the auxiliary device 330, the electric clutch device 335 and the electric motor device 340, using variables (described below) , And generate control signals for operation of the fun elements within the computerized yo-yo 300. [

The optical display device 320 may include any number of light emitting components 720, e.g., LEDs or lasers, but are not limited thereto and may be disposed anywhere on the interior or surface of the yo- . The optical display device 320 also includes both wires, electrical switches, dimmers, power amplifiers, or any other components, and any necessary connection parts between those components used to operate the light emitting components 720 can do. The components of the optical display device 320 may be installed inside or anywhere of the yose body 100. The optical display device 320 may also be implemented as a detachable device, as described below. Some examples of operating the optical display device 320 emit low or soft light when the computerized yo-yo 300 is in a stopped state (state 1), the computerized yo-yo 300 is thrown (state 2 (State 3), reaching the end of the string 110 (state 4), or "wake-up" (state 6). In another example, based on the structure of the light emitting component 720 and the motion and state of the computerized yo-yo 300, light synchronized with the motion of the yo-yo can provide a fun effect, A flash of light that is indicative of a stationary state, or a display of features or properties that can be seen in a stationary state, or that can be moved in an interesting pattern, despite the rotation of the display device 300. Further, in synchronism with the sound reproducing apparatus 325, the light displaying may be operated in synchronization with the bit and / or the intensity of the sound reproduced by the sound reproducing apparatus 325. The light pattern may be stationary, or may be changeable, loadable, or programmable, as will be described below.

Sound reproduction device 325 is composed of electrical, electromechanical, electronic or piezoelectric components that can be used to produce audible sound. These components can be used in conjunction with memory components, digital-to-analog converters, power amplifiers, or any other components used to hold high performance speakers, pre-stored or loaded acoustic files or acoustic formats (e.g., MIDI, Includes the necessary connecting parts between these parts. The components of the sound reproducing apparatus 325 may be located inside the yoy body 100 or anywhere. The sound reproducing device 325 may be implemented as a detachable device, as will be described below. The sound reproducing device 325 can be used to provide a variety of sounds such as interesting sounds such as music, sound effects, human voices, animal sounds, or other interesting and exciting sounds and sounds when the user is playing with the computerized yo- Lt; / RTI > Some examples of operating the sound reproducing apparatus 325 are such that when the computerized yo-yo 300 is in a stopped state (state 1), soft music is reproduced and the computerized yo-yo 300 is thrown (state 2 (State 4), or "wake-up" (state 6), it is possible to reproduce a very large punch sound. In another example, the sound may be reproduced with bits corresponding to the rotational speed of the computerized yo-yo 300. [ Interesting sound information, such as recorded sound (music, voice, sound, etc.), MIDI format data or other sound data, etc. may be constant or pre-stored in a memory component, or such sound information may be alterable , Loadable, or programmable as described below.

The optical display device 320 is disposed on one side of the fixed fun elements such as the computerized yo-yo 300 and the sound reproducing device 325 is installed on the other side of the computerized yo-yo 300, Or a combination of the optical display device 320 and the sound reproducing device 325 on each side of the computerized yo-yo 300, or other arrangements and configurations of such fun elements, It is possible to manufacture the yo-yo 300. However, the enhanced interesting experience suggests that if these fun elements (as well as the auxiliary devices 330, which will be described in more detail below) are removable so that various other types of removable devices are attached to the computerized yo-yo 300, If it can be replaced with another detachable device if necessary, it will be more interesting.

6A, 6B, and 6C illustrate possible implementations of the latching base 605 for a removable device that may be assembled within the yose body 100, particularly assembled to any or all of the round halves of the yose body 100 . The latching base 605 may be formed by a concave space in the yawing body 100 and the detachable device is inserted into the latching base 605 and held and held by the latches 60OA, 610B, 61OC, and 610D. . The latching base 605 may also include a connecting pad 615 and a padding ring 620. [ The connection pads 615 in the latching base 605 may be made of metal strips such as copper to provide electrical signals and power from the yoy body 100 to the detachable devices secured to the latching base 605. The padding ring 620 may be formed of rubber or silicone to provide buffering action and resistance. One of the latches, for example, the latch 60OA, may be configured to be movable, wherein the biasing spring 630 can push the latch 610A toward the center of the latching base 605. [ The detachable device is inserted into the latching base 605 below the latches 610B, 610C and 610D and is held in place by the latch 610A when pushed by the pressure spring 630. [ Obviously, any other configuration for holding, securing, and connecting the detachable device is of course also possible. For example, and not by way of limitation, the concave space of the latching base 605 may be a square, a rectangle, a hexagon, or another shape. Also, instead of using a concave space for the latching base 605, the detachable device may be inserted into the slit of the yawing body 100, which may also serve as another embodiment of the latching base 605. In another configuration, the recessed space can be removed so that the removable devices can be secured to the outer surface of any one or both of the circular halves of the yaw body 100. Any number of latches may be used and replaced by, but not limited to, pins, holes, grooves, screws, or other mechanisms that can securely hold the detachable device in place. Any number of latches may be configured to include a biasing spring 630 and the biasing spring 630 may be replaced by any other device that facilitates engagement of the biasing device. The connecting pads 615 of the latching base 605 may be made of any material and shape that provides an electrical signal and power connection to the detachable device, for example, metal pins that fit into the metal holes for electrical connection However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Also, a plurality of connection pads may be used in place of a single connection pad 615. The padding ring 620 can be made of any shape and material, and includes non-ring shapes such as padding surfaces, as long as it provides buffering action and resistance. The latching base 605 may be implemented without either or both of the functions described in Figures 6A, 6B, and 6C, as long as it can secure and engage the removable devices in the yo-yo body 100. [

Figure 7 shows a first possible embodiment of a light display device 320, such as a removable device, embodied as a circular disk. A connection pad 710 for the detachable device is disposed below the detachable device and provides electrical connection to the connection pad 615 of the latching base 605. The two pads must be complementary to each other to provide electrical connection. Any number of light emitting components 720, such as, for example, LEDs, may be disposed above the removable device and may be disposed on any desired location, size, color, or any other characteristic of the light emitting component 720 You can follow. Other supporting components include, but are not limited to, a memory, a switch, a dimmer, an impedance converter, a power amplifier, or any other configuration required for operation of the optical display device 320 and the light emitting component 720 The elements may be disposed on the interior or body of the removable device, or may be disposed on or on the interior of the yaw body 100.

Figure 8 shows a second possible embodiment of the optical display device 320, such as a removable device embodied as a round disk. Any number of lasers may be disposed above the removable device and include, for example, a laser 810. The following description of the laser 810 may be applied to other lasers in this embodiment. The laser 810 is attached to the upper side of the removable device by the holder 820 and may be placed on top of, fixed to, or glued to the piezoelectric actuator 830. Thus, in addition to turning on and off the laser 810, the light beam of the laser 810 may be steered within a range of angles, which is achieved by applying an electrical signal to or from the piezoelectric actuator 830. The piezoelectric actuator 830 may be replaced with other techniques that may be used to adjust the light beam of the laser 810 in any mechanism, mechanical, electro-mechanical, electromagnetic, or a range of angles. The laser 810 may also be disposed on top of or within the detachable device and adjustment of the light beam of the laser 810 may be accomplished by moving mirrors or mirrors rather than moving the laser 810. [ Other supporting components may be used to operate the memory, switch, dimmer, impedance transducer, power amplifier, or optical display device 320, laser 810, and piezoelectric actuator 830, such as, but not limited to, Any other components may be disposed on the interior or body of the detachable device, or on the interior or top of the yaw body 100. A second possible embodiment of such an optical display device 320 includes the implementation of a connection pad 710 of a removable device not shown in Fig.

9 shows a possible embodiment of a sound reproducing apparatus 325, which is a removable apparatus embodied as a circular disk. The implementation of the sound reproducing apparatus 325 requires a membrane 910 and a mechanism (not shown in Fig. 9) to move the membrane 910 in accordance with an electrical signal. The sound reproducing apparatus 325 may use a piezoelectric mechanism for moving the membrane 910, but other mechanisms may be used, such as, for example, an electromagnetic or electrostatic capacity mechanism, but are not limited thereto. Other support components may be used to implement the invention, such as, but not limited to, a memory, a digital-to-analog converter, an impedance converter, a power amplifier, May be disposed on or in the interior of the detachable device, or on the interior or top of the yaw body 100. This possible embodiment of the sound reproducing device 325 includes an implementation of a connection pad 710 for a removable device not shown in FIG.

The use of a removable device secured to the latching base 605 for the optical display device 320 or the sound reproducing device 325 has several advantages, for example, the same computerized The ability to use the yo-yo 300, or the ability to do better commercial transactions between performance and price for the removable devices. However, the latching base 605 may be used to secure another type of detachable device, an apparatus that we call assisting device 330. Auxiliary device 330 may be a disposable or semi-disposable detachable device, which may provide additional fun value to computerized yo-yo 300. Fig. 10 is a schematic diagram of a possible embodiment of an assistance device 330 implemented as a removable device in the form of a circular disk. A number of amusement mounts 1010 are disposed on the upper side of the removable device. Recreational mountings 1010 may be small flame mounts, colored smoke mounts, colored powder mounts or odor mounts. Recreational mountings 1010 may also be small capsules containing interesting small objects such as sugar candy or accessories, or other mountings that provide an interesting experience for the user of the computerized yo-yo 300. The recreational mount 1010 may be a mechanism for fireworks that ignites the fireworks and emits smoke, powder or odor, opens the capsules, or operates other recreational functions of the entertainment article 1010, Operation mechanism can be used. Placing recreational mountings 1010 on the top side of the removable device may be installed or disposed as shown in FIG. 10, or may be constructed in any pattern or form on top or inside of the removable device, . Other supporting components required for operation of the auxiliary device 330 and the recreational mount 1010 may be disposed on or in the body of the removable device or may be disposed on or in the interior of the yaw body 100 . This possible embodiment of the assistance device 330 includes the implementation of the connection pad 710 of the removable device, not shown in FIG.

Obviously, many different types of detachable devices are designed and fixed to the latching base 605 for the purpose of enhancing the fun experience. One type of detachable device may be any particular embodiment of the optical display device 320 and may be any particular embodiment of the sound reproducing device 325 or auxiliary device 330. [ The computing and control device 305 may be configured to use an identification mechanism to identify the type of removable device that is secured to the latching base 605, since various types of removable devices may be secured to the latching base 605 have. The arithmetic and control unit 305 can then generate appropriate control signals based on the detachable device of the identified type and for the detachable device of the identified type and obtain the desired interesting experience. The identification device may be a resistor having a different resistance for each type of analog device, e.g., a detachable device, where the resistance is measured by the computing and control device 305, and which type of detachable device Is fixed to the latching base (605). The identification device may also be a digital device, for example, a memory component that stores a different identification code for each different type of removable device, where the identification code is stored in the computing and control device 305 And can identify which type of removable device is secured to the latching base 605. [ The identification device can be any device that can be used by the computing and control device 305 to identify the type of removable device that is secured to the latching base 605. [

As a first example of using the detachable device of the identified type, if the operation and control device 305 identifies the removable device as the optical display device 320, as shown in FIG. 7, and if the acceleration value When the computerized yo-yo 300 rotates at a speed R, for example, at a rate of rotation per second, the computing and controlling device 305 generates a control signal suitable for the optical display device 320, The component 720 flashes at a rate of F _R = 4R with flashing per second. As a second example of using a detachable device of the identified type, if the operation and control device 305 identifies the detachable device as an acoustic reproduction device 325, as shown in FIG. 9, and if the acceleration value When the computerized yo-yo 300 rotates at a speed R, for example, at a rate of rotation per second, the computing and controlling device 305 generates a control signal suitable for the sound reproducing device 325, (910) can oscillate at bits per second, with bits of B _R = R.

The computing and controlling device 305 generates a preset control signal to actuate the detachable device that engages the latching base 605, that is, a particular type of detachable device is attached to the latching base 605, depending on the detected type of detachable device. Each in a similar manner. However, it is also possible to operate certain types of detachable devices in a variety of ways using many different settings of control signals to achieve other enjoyable experiences. Also, a new type of detachable device may be used, and the computing and control device 305 may not have appropriate control signals for that type. Thus, it can be very useful if a new control signal can be loaded into the computation and control device 305, or can be generated by the computation and control device 305 using configuration parameters. The set-up parameters may be complete control signals used by the arithmetic and control unit 305 to operate the detachable unit or may be used by the arithmetic and control unit 305 to generate a control signal to actuate the removable unit The parameters can be. Thus, the communication device 345 may be configured to receive configuration parameters from an external device and to transmit the received configuration parameters. The setting parameters may be a light pattern for the optical display device 320 and may be used to control the sound data for the sound reproducing device 325 or the activation of the auxiliary device 330 ≪ / RTI > In another example, the setting parameter may be a matter of which current user among the various users currently plays with the computerized request 300. [

The setting parameter may be any information that is received from an external device and used for both extraction of the state parameter, generation of the control signal, and operation of the fun factor. For example, if the configuration parameter is such that the current user A is playing with the computerized question 300 and the acceleration value indicates that the computerized question 300 indicates a "waking up & The status parameter and the generated control signal may control the optical display device 320 so as to flash red. If, on the other hand, the configuration parameter indicates that the current user B is playing with the computerized yo-yo 300 and the acceleration value indicates that the computerized yo-yo 300 is in a " The parameter and the generated control signal may control the optical display device 320 so as to flash in a yellow color.

The external device may receive configuration parameters from any source, such as, for example, loading any storage media or configuration parameters from the Internet. In addition, when using a particular program or application on an external device or other device, the user may create new and interesting setting parameters for any fun factor and all types of removable devices, (305) and can be used to operate all the fun elements in the computerized yo-yo (300) in a new, interesting, interesting, and exciting way.

The arithmetic and control unit 305 may also use a communication device 345 to send information about yaw motions and conditions to an external device. The arithmetic and control unit 305 can use the acceleration value from the acceleration sensor device 315 (or with the tension value from the tension-based device 350 or individually), and other information received from the fun factor To extract the state parameters and to transmit the state parameters to the external device using the communication device 345. [ For example, the status parameter may include information about the identity of the removable device stuck in the latching base 605, and the status of all devices or elements of the computerized yo-yo 300. For example, Thus, the state parameters are all parameters received by the computing and controlling device 305, extracted by the computing and controlling device 305, or generated by the computing and controlling device 305. The external device may use these state parameters, which may include additional interesting experience, such as, but not limited to, a rotational speed indication of the yo-yo, which of the two users has achieved the highest throwing power, It is to be appreciated that any person who has played the computerized yo-yo 300 the longest, or in the best way, with the computerized yo-yo 300, which may improve the experience interesting to the user, The use of motion, state, and many other different information on conditions, and the like. The external device also uses information about yaw motion, condition, and condition and receives from the arithmetic and control unit 305 and calculates the complex control parameters, which is greater than the arithmetic and control capabilities of the arithmetic and control unit 305 May require robust computing power and then send the computed complex control parameters back to the computation and control device 305 to help generate control signals for the fun elements that provide the desired pleasant experience .

The optical display device 320, the sound reproducing device 325 and the auxiliary devices 330 may generate interesting experiences to the user in response to the motions, conditions and conditions of the computerized yo-yo 300. [ However, a more enjoyable experience can be achieved if the operation of the computerized yo-yo 300 is controllable and adjustable. 11 is a schematic diagram of a computerized yo-yo 300 having a ball bearing 210 and an electric clutch arrangement 335. Fig. Similar to the ball bearing type yoyo as shown in Fig. 2, the computer yoyo 300 of this embodiment includes a ball bearing 210 having an inner ring and an outer case attached to the yoyo axel 130. As shown in Fig. The electric clutch device 335 may be made of a piezoelectric clutch component 1105 that is attached to the yawing body 100 and may be disposed at the same distance as the outer case of the ball bearing 210 from the yo- The piezoelectric clutch component 1105 can be expanded or contracted by applying (or releasing) an electrical signal. 11 shows two four clutch parts 1105 on each side of the yaw body 100, but any number of clutch parts 1105 can be used in any configuration. In addition, any other techniques may be used to implement clutch component 1105, including, but not limited to, magnetic, electromagnetic, or electro-mechanical techniques. Other elements required for operation of the electric clutch device 335 and the clutch component 1105 include, but are not limited to, wires, switches, power amplifiers, or other elements not shown in Figure 11 .

The clutch components 1105 contract when the electrical signal is applied (or when no electrical signal is applied) and remove any contact or friction between the clutch component 1105 and the outer casing of the ball bearing 210 , Which we will call "unlocking". The clutch component 1105 is also configured to expand when no electrical signal is applied (or when an electrical signal is applied) and to cause contact or friction with the outer casing of the ball bearing 210 And we will call this "lock". The contact and friction between the clutch component 1105 and the outer case of the ball bearing 210 generate a frictional force between the yaw body 100 and the outer case of the ball bearing 210, (Deceleration) between the outer case of the ball bearing 210 and the outer case of the ball bearing 210. This frictional force controls the relative movement between the yawing body 100 and the outer case of the ball bearing 210, thus also controlling between the yawing body 100 and the string 110. For example, if the clutch component 1105 is unlocked, the outer case of the ball bearing 210 will be free to rotate, which means that the movement of the computerized yo-yo 300 is controlled by a ball bearing This means that it will be the same as the movement of the expression yo-yo. In another example, when the clutch component 1105 is locked, the outer case of the ball bearing 210 rotates with the yawing body 100, which is shown in Figure 1, Which means that the end of the yaw axis 110 will resemble the motion of a simple yo-yo fixed firmly to the yo-yo accelerator 130. However, an enhanced enjoyment may be achieved if the operation of the electric clutch device 335 is controlled by a control signal generated by the computation and control device 305. The control signal (electric clutch control signal) for the arithmetic and control device 305 is input to the acceleration sensor device 315 by the acceleration value from the acceleration sensor device 315 (or together with the tension value from the tension- May be based on the status parameters extracted from the computing and controlling device 305, or with or separately from the configuration parameters received from the external device. For example, the electric clutch control signal may control the clutch component 1105 to remain locked when the user throws the computerized yo-yo 300, (Or together with the tension value from the tension-gauge device 350) from the accelerometer device 315 when it is fully extended, the clutch component 1105 can be accurately unlocked, as indicated by the acceleration value from the accelerometer device 315 Can be controlled. This may have a higher efficiency in the sense of increased rotational speed during the "slip" state compared to the ball bearing type yoyo as shown in Fig. 2 (in the case of ball bearing yoyo, The string 110 may lose friction with the inner wall of the yaw body 100 before it is released). In another example, the electric clutch control signal may control the clutch component 1105 in an unlocked state, the computerized yo-yo 300 is in a "slip" state and then an acceleration value from the accelerometer device 315 (Or with tension values from the tension-based device 350) may indicate that the user is "waking up" the yo-yo, as the calculation and control device 305 locks the clutch component 1105 So that it is possible to generate an electric clutch control signal. This allows the computerized yo-yo 300 to obtain a faster and easier "waking up" as compared to the "wake up" of a ball-bearing yo-yo as shown in Fig. 2 (in the case of a ball- It is necessary to actuate the strap 110 to create sufficient friction between the strap 110 and the inner wall of the yaw body 100). In yet another example, the computerized yo-yo 300 may be configured such that when the user pronounces, for example, "up" to execute a voice command to an external device, the clutch component 1105 may be in the " . The voice command may be recognized by an external device, which may send the appropriate configuration parameters via the communication device 345 to the computing and control device 305 and then control to lock the clutch component 1105 To generate an electrical clutch control signal, and to cause the computerized yo-yo 300 to begin rolling upwards. Even if the yo-yo user does not want the electric clutch device 335 to assist or interfere with the movement of the computerized yo-yo 300 during the game, the electric clutch device 335 is simply moved to the line 110 ) Can be used to assist in rewinding. In this example, the line 110 is fully expanded, but the computerized yo-yo 300 is no longer spinning, which can occur when the user loses control of the yo-yo, 110) need to be rewound. In the case of the ball bearing type yo-yo shown in Fig. 2, such rewinding is not simple because an initial friction must be created that allows the user to carefully manipulate the reel 110 to rewind. In the case of a computerized yo-yo 300 having an electric clutch device 335, the user can simply issue a voice command to the external device, for example a "lock ". The voice command can be recognized by an external device and transmitted to the computing and controlling device 305 via the communication device 345 with an appropriate setting parameter, Signal can be generated. Similarly, the clutch component 1105 may be locked based on recognition of the first movement pattern. Once the clutch component 1105 is locked, the user can easily rewind the string 110 and issue a second voice command, for example "unlock ", the clutch component 1105 will be unlocked , Then the user can simply resume the yo-yo game. Similarly, the clutch component 1105 can be unlocked based on the recognition of the second movement pattern.

Various levels of electric clutch control signals for the clutch component 1105 in the electric clutch device 335 can also be used to generate various frictional forces between the clutch component 1105 and the outer case of the ball bearing 210 So that various frictional forces can be generated between the yaw body 100 and the outer case of the ball bearing 210. Various frictional forces may be used to smoothly control the movement of the computerized yo-yo 300, for example, by gradually slowing the rotational speed of the computerized yo-yo 300, or when it is " The rotational speed of the yo-yo 300 can be controlled.

As described above, the width of the gap formed between the two round halves of the yawing body 100 is greater than the need to reduce friction between the inside of the yawing body 100 and the line 110 during "slip " This is a trade-off between the need for a wide gap, and the need for an easy "wake-up" of the yo-yo (in this case a narrow gap). Figure 12 shows a computerized yo-yo 300 wherein an inner disk 1220 is additionally mounted on the outer casing of the ball bearing 210, which helps to solve the problem. As shown in FIG. 11, this computerized yo-yo 300 also includes an electric clutch arrangement 335 implemented by a clutch component 1105. Obviously, if the clutch parts 1105 are unlocked, the user can throw the computerized yo-yo 300 as shown in FIG. 12, and when the string 110 is fully extended, ≪ / RTI > the computerized requirement 300 will enter a "sleep" state. However, it would be impossible for the user to "wake up" the computerized yo-yo 300 as shown in Figure 12 using the movements of the arms, hands or fingers because the inner walls of the yo- Because it is impossible to create friction between the string 100 and the inner wall of the yaw body 100 at the outside of the disk 1220. [ However, since the clutch component 1105 can be controlled by the computation and control device 305, the clutch components 1105 can be locked to "wake up" the computerized yo-yo 300 as shown in FIG. It will be possible. In particular, in the case of the computerized yo-yo 300 shown in Figure 12, the row 110 and inner disks 1220 do not move relative to each other during the "sleep" ) And the inner wall of the yawing body 100 are removed. This is shown in FIG. 12, and the computerized yo-yo 300 with the inner disk 1220 can be more efficient in that it can rotate longer during the "sleep" state. Other components required for the operation of the electric clutch device 335 and the clutch components 1105, such as, but not limited to, wiring, switches, power amplifiers and other components are not shown in FIG.

When the yo-yo is in a "sleep" state and it rotates fast enough to allow the user to perform the yo-yo "trick", they are sequences of yo-yo movements that show the skill and agility of the user. However, if the rotational speed is slowed by friction, the ability to perform the yoyo tricks is reduced or eliminated. 13 shows a computerized version 300 that includes an electric clutch arrangement 335 and an electric motor arrangement 340 for generating an improved and interesting experience for the user. The electric motor arrangement 340 includes an electric motor 1310 mounted on an accelerator 130 similar to the ball bearing 210 in Figures 2, 11 and 12. The electric motor 1310 includes an inner case (corresponding to the inner ring of the ball bearing 210) for fixing the electric coil and an outer case (corresponding to the outer case of the ball bearing 210) capable of holding the fixed magnet . When no control signal is applied to the electric motor 1310, the inner part smoothly rotates, assuming that the clutch component 1105 is unlocked, Of friction. When a control signal is applied to the electric motor 1310, a rotational force can be generated between the inner part of the electric motor 1310 and the outer case. Since the inner part of the electric motor 1310 is connected to the yo-yo accelerator 130 and sequentially connected to the yo-yo main body 100, the generated rotational force is also applied between the outer case of the electric motor 1310 and the yo- . If the yaw body 100 and the outer casing of the electric motor 1310 do not initially rotate relative to each other, the rotational force can create a rotational movement therebetween. If the yaw body 100 and the outer casing of the electric motor 1310 are already rotating relative to each other, the rotational force may increase or decrease the rotational speed, or the rotational force may even be such a rotational direction You can also reverse it. The rope 110 may be connected to the outer casing of the electric motor 1310, which serves as an outer case of the ball bearing 210 shown in Figs. 2, 11 and 12.

The electric clutch device 335 and the electric motor device 340 may be controlled by the computation and control device 305 which may determine the acceleration value from the accelerometer device 315 Or separately, with the state parameters extracted by the computing and controlling device 305, or with the setting parameters received from the external device, or separately, based on these, And control signals (electric motor control signals) for the electric motor device 340. For example, after the user has thrown the computerized yo-yo 300 shown in FIG. 13, the clutch parts 1105 can be unlocked, and the electric motor device 340 can move the computerized yo- , It can operate to increase its rotational speed. In another example, if the string 110 is fully drawn and the computerized yo-yo 300 shown in Figure 13 is in the "sleep" state, the electric motor arrangement 340 is controlled , Or may be activated, which allows the user to perform long sequence of yo-yo trick elements. In yet another additional example, when the user completes the trick elements, it may cause the computerized yo-yo 300 shown in FIG. 13 to be pulled by frictional force generated by the clutch component 1105, or by the electric motor 1310 It is possible to "wake up" In yet another additional example, when the user performs the yo-yo trick elements, the user can lower the voice commands to the external device, e.g., "fast", "slow", "up" An electric clutch control signal for recognizing by an external device and transmitting the setting parameter to the computing and controlling device 305 via the communication device 345 and for controlling the electric clutch device 335, And control the motion and state of the computerized yo-yo 300 according to the issued voice command. But are not limited to, electrical clutch devices 335, electric motor devices 340, clutch components 1105, other components required for operation of the electric motor 1310, such as, but not limited to, And other elements are not shown in Fig.

Other embodiments of the electric motor arrangement 340 are also possible wherein they are arranged such that when an electric motor control signal is generated and applied to the electric motor arrangement 340, It can be used if it functions to generate a rotatable force that can be adjusted as required for motion. Further, the electric motor apparatus 340 can reverse its function and operate as a generator for charging the battery 310. [

Several features and other aspects of the present invention are presented separately throughout Figures 3--13. However, it is possible to implement a computerized version 300 as any embodiment combining both features of the present invention and other aspects. Embodiments of the computerized yo-yo 300 may include a latching base (not shown) that may be engaged with a removable type optical display device 320, a sound reproducing device 325, or an auxiliary device 330 (605). The same embodiment of the computerized yo-yo 300 may additionally include an electric clutch arrangement 335 and an electric motor arrangement 340 that may provide motion control of the computerized yo-yo 300.
