Electronic coin bank
Abstract
An electronic coin bank comprises a coin bank, a coin-throwing device and a circuit structure, which changed the single function of saving money of a conventional coin bank into an electronic coin bank, wherein a coin-throwing device is provided for setting the values of the coins and throwing the coins, a circuit structure is provided for setting the stored values, the preparedly stored values, the saving progress, the rewarding music, time and alarm clock, and a transmission connector is connected to a computer. Since the diversifying of the functions and by using the finance-managing software installed in the computer, the children will form a good habit of saving.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . An electronic coin bank, comprising:
a coin bank, an upper surface of the coin bank being defined with a hole, a displaying panel and a plurality of setting buttons being disposed adjacent to the hole, the bottom of the coin bank being formed with another hole having a cover, a battery container and a transmission hole, the displaying panel and the setting buttons being electrically connected to a circuit structure so as to show the set functions and the operation of the set functions of the circuit structure, the battery container serves as a power of the circuit structure, the cover being electrically connected to the circuit structure, and the transmission hole being electrically connected to a transmission connector of the circuit structure; a coin-throwing device, the coin-throwing device and a circuit structure being repeatedly disposed in the coin bank that are located correspondingly to the hole defined in the upper surface of the coin bank, a sensing assembly of the coin-throwing device being electrically connected to the circuit structure and being provided a signal to the circuit structure, one side of the coin-throwing device being repeatedly disposed with a circuit structure and being provided for measuring and throwing coins, the coin-throwing device includes a front and a rear plates, a left and a right sliding blocks, a sensing assembly and an elastic element, the front and rear plates being combined to form a coin-entering hole, both sides of the plate being disposed with a sliding block, between the front and the rear plates being formed two protruded points that are located correspondingly to each other, at least one outer side of the plate being disposed with one elastic element, since both ends of the elastic element being combined to the sides of the sliding blocks, which is equal to one surface of the elastic element, and the bottom of the respective sliding block being disposed with the sensing assembly; and a circuit structure, including a microprocessor, a loudspeaker, a memory and a transmission connector which being electrically connected to the sensing assembly, the setting buttons and the displaying panel of the coin-throwing device.
2 . The electronic coin bank as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the transmission hole of the coin bank is electrically connected to the transmission connector of the circuit structure, and is communicated with the computer by means of substantial transmission lines or wireless transmission (such as infrared ray, wireless electric wave and bluetooth).
3 . The electronic coin bank as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sensing assembly having an electronic brush connecting foot combined to one sliding block and a brush piece combined to another sliding block, the electronic brush connecting foot and the brush piece are made of metal and are electrically connected to the circuit structure.
4 . The electronic coin bank as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sensing assembly having two electronic brush connecting feet combined to the sliding blocks and a brush piece combined to a surface of the circuit structure, the electronic brush connecting feet and the brush piece are made of metal and are electrically connected to the circuit structure.
5 . The electronic coin bank as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sensing assembly is disposed at the bottom of the sliding blocks correspondingly to a lower portion of the plate and the relative surface of the circuit structure, and having a raster plate and infrared rays that are combined to the surface of the circuit structure, and the infrared rays are electrically connected to the circuit structure.
6 . The electronic coin bank as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the memory of the circuit structure is stored with plural values correspondingly to the diameters of the coins and the forms of sound effects.
7 . The electronic coin bank as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the displaying panel is provided for showing saving values or amounts, saving progress, value displaying lights and time.
8 . The electronic coin bank as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the setting buttons includes goal setting, goal adjusting, saving content, time setting, hour setting and minute setting.
9 . The electronic coin bank as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the form of sound effects of the circuit structure can be stored by music IC 35 , and the music is broadcast by the loudspeaker via the music return route by the microprocessor.
10 . The electronic coin bank as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the settings of time, hour and minute are able to set alarm clock and choose the music of the alarm clock.
11 . The electronic coin bank as claimed in claim 1 , wherein one of the sliding blocks of the coin-throwing device can be fixed to one side of the front and rear plates, and the other sliding block can be moved outward and repositioned.
12 . The electronic coin bank as claimed in claim 1 , wherein both sides of the plate are disposed with two sliding blocks that can be moved outward and repositioned.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
