There described a computerized yo-yo toy that uses an acceleration measuring device, a computation and control device, a communication device and entertaining devices to enhance the entertaining experience of playing with the computerized yo-yo toy. The acceleration measuring device measures the acceleration values of the computerized yo-yo toy. The computation and control device uses the measured acceleration values to generate control signals to control the entertaining devices such as a light display device, an audio play device and an auxiliary device for an enhanced entertaining experience. The entertaining devices may be latched to a latching base, which allows using different and new entertaining devices with the computerized yo-yo toy. The computation and control device may also use the measured acceleration values to generate control signals to control the motion of the computerized yo-yo toy, using an electric clutch device and an electric motor device. The control signals are based on the measured acceleration values, the type of entertaining device latched to the latching base and setup parameters received by the communication device from an external device, such as smartphone or tablet. The communication deice may also send data from the computerized yo-yo toy to the external device, which allows the external device to analyze, store or display the data for an enhanced entertaining experience.

A spinning toy including a base, at least one shaft coupled to the base, and at least one winged object having a hub and a series of wings coupled to the hub. The hub of the winged object is rotatably mountable on the shaft. When the hub is rotatably mounted on the shaft and rotated relative to the shaft, the winged object is configured to move along the shaft toward the base.

A yo-yo having improved spin time is disclosed. The yo-yo has a body comprising two side members joined together at their centers by a fixed axle. A yoke for receiving a string in winding relation is magnetically supported for substantially frictionless rotation about the axle. A pair of radially-magnetized ring magnets disposed at opposite ends of the yoke are received within a corresponding pair of radially-magnetized ring magnets disposed within recesses in the side members. A pair of axially-magnetized ring magnets disposed at opposite ends of the yoke confront a corresponding pair of axially-disposed ring magnets set into the body side members. The magnets are magnetically polarized such that they mutually repel each other. As a result, the yo-yo is free to spin around the yoke for an extended period of time.

The present invention discloses a hand-held yo-yo ball capable of manually storing energy, comprising two rotating bodies and a connecting shaft, where each rotating body comprises a disk body and a shell; one disk body is internally provided with a clutch mechanism, the other disk body is internally provided with an energy storage mechanism; two ends of the connecting shaft are respectively connected with the clutch mechanism and the energy storage mechanism; the rotating body at the end where the clutch mechanism is located is manually rotated, energy is stored in the energy storage mechanism, then the meshing state of the clutch mechanism is manually removed, so that the energy storage mechanism releases the energy to drive the two rotating bodies to rotate synchronously. In this way, the yo-yo ball can be rotated without throwing a ball body of the yo-yo ball by a rope.
