Benefits of technology

[0011]According to the present invention, when the toy top comes into contact with the opponent toy top, the rotational force of the opponent toy top can be converted into a rotational force of the toy top of the invention through the friction member, so that the toy top can restore the rotational force, which has been lessened, by means of the collision with the opponent toy top. Thus, the toy top can change the operation mode with such a simple structure in

Problems solved by technology

In the proposed toy top, although the rotational characteristics thereof can be changed upon collision with the opponent toy top, it is necessary to construct the toy top so that the lower layer member is rotatable an

Embodiment Construction

[0021]FIGS. 1A and 1B show an embodiment of a toy top according to the present invention. The toy top A is constituted by a main body that includes an upper layer section 1 which has a function of attacking an opponent toy top and which is constituted by a first attacking member 10 and a second attacking member 20, a middle layer section 2 determining the height of the toy top, a lower layer section 3 having a shaft portion 41 adapted to come into contact with a surface of a playing board, and a coupling member 4 in a screw shape coupling together the upper layer section 1 and middle layer section 2 (see FIG. 2).

[0022]The first attacking member 10 is, as shown in FIGS. 3A to 3D, a disk-like member made of synthetic resin and having a fitting hole portion 11 formed in the center thereof in which a fitting portion 22 of the second attacking member 20 described later is fitted. On diametrically opposite sides of the fitting hole portion 11 is formed a pair of engagement recesses 11a fo...

Abstract

A low cost toy top having a simple structure and capable of changing its operating characteristics upon collision with an opponent toy top. The toy top which is spun on a playing board to play a match with an opponent toy top by being collided with the latter includes a main body including collisional portions adapted to come into contact with the opponent toy top, wherein at least some of the collisional portions are provided with a friction member for converting a rotational force of the opponent toy top into a rotational force of the toy top at the time of collision.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a toy top and, more particularly, to a toy top capable of changing rotational characteristics upon contacting an opponent toy top during spinning.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]Conventionally, a toy top capable of changing rotational characteristics upon contacting another toy top without a user's operation has been proposed (refer to, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-open Publication No. 2006-55333). This toy top is so constructed that an upper layer member and a lower layer member are rotatably connected through a mounting base, a shaft portion formed on the lower layer member has a movable shaft piece therewithin so as to move in a vertical direction, and a driving means is provided on the mounting base to vertically move the shaft piece in association with the rotation of the lower layer member. Each time the opponent toy top comes into contact with the low...
