[0015] Embodiments of this disclosure will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 This is a view showing a doll-playing toy 1, which mimics an underwater castle, viewed from the front. The doll-playing toy 1 includes a doll-playing body 5, which includes a plate-like base 2 placed on a floor or similar surface and a support body 3 mounted on the base 2. The support body 3 includes a central support plate 31 formed to a height, and a first play section 100, serving as a play section, is disposed on top of this central support plate 31. The first play section 100 is detachably equipped with a boat 120 including a balloon section 110. Below the first play section 100, the support body 3 includes a door 3a, steps 3b, and seaweed 3c, mimicking corresponding parts of a castle, at predetermined positions. In the doll-playing toy 1, the portion below the rippled wave section 130 at the central top of the support body 3, on which the boat 120 is placed, simulates an underwater castle. The doll-playing toy 1 is designed to be played with dolls whose height is less than the height of the door 3a, for example, about two-thirds the height of the door 3a.

[0016] like Figure 1As shown, the second game section 200 is located on the upper part of the pillar 32 on the left side of the supporting main body 3, and the third game section 300 is located on the upper part of the branch-shaped support section 33 extending in a branch-like manner on the right side of the supporting main body 3. The second game section 200 includes a rotating body 210 and three hanging bodies 220 suspended from the rotating body 210, on which dolls can be placed. The rotating body 210 is a game section that can be manually rotated and the players can enjoy the game by swinging the hanging bodies 220 on which the dolls are placed. The third game section 300 is a game section in which a carousel game can be played by manually rotating the generally disc-shaped rotating body 320, which is equipped with three doll holders 310 in the form of crabs, dolphins, and fish.

[0017] Next, the references will be relied upon. Figures 2 to 6 The doll holder 310 of the third game section 300, which is a major part of this disclosure, is described in detail. Three doll holders 310 are arranged on the rotating body 320, and the doll holder 310 having a dolphin shape will be described below as an example.

[0018] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the toy holder 310 includes a flat seat surface 318 for placing a toy on. The seat surface 318 is slightly higher than the base surface 318a. Therefore, a child, as the user, can easily identify the seat surface 318 as the place to place the toy. On the dolphin head side (hereinafter also referred to as the "front side"), which is the first directional side of the seat surface 318, a first wall portion 311 is erected to have a wall surface that is substantially perpendicular to the seat surface 318. In other words, the first wall portion 311 is provided on the back side (hereinafter also referred to as the "rear side") of the dolphin head.

[0019] A bulge 311a, extending towards the seat surface 318, is located approximately at the center of the first wall portion 311 (approximately at the center in the left-right direction when the doll is seated on the seat surface 318). The bulge 311a extends from the upper end to the lower end of the first wall portion 311. An opening 311a1, extending from the upper surface of the dolphin's head to the lower end of the first wall portion 311 and opening in the bulge 311a, is formed in the bulge 311a. An arm member 317 is provided in the opening 311a1.

[0020] like Figure 4 As shown, the arm component 317 is generally T-shaped. The arm component 317 includes an abutment rod 317a corresponding to the crossbar portion of the T-shape and a rotating rod 317b corresponding to the vertical portion of the T-shape. The abutment rod 317a, extending in the left-right direction, is slightly curved. At the end of the rotating rod 317b, two cylindrical rotating shafts 317c protruding in the left-right direction are provided opposite to each other.

[0021] like Figure 6As shown, a support plate 311c extending downwards from the upper end of the opening 311a1 to approximately the middle position in the vertical direction of the opening 311a1 is provided on both sides of the opening 311a1 of the bulge 311a (the left and right sides of the seat surface 318 when the doll is seated). At the lower end of the support plate 311c, a shaft support portion 311d is provided. This shaft support portion 311d has a rectangular shape with rounded corners, is longer in the vertical direction, and has a semi-circular upper side. The shaft support portion 311d rotatably supports the rotation shaft 317c of the arm component 317.

[0022] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a generally rectangular sliding resistance portion 311e, elongated in the vertical direction, is provided on the seat surface 318 side of the support plate 311c. The sliding resistance portions 311e are provided on the two support plates 311c facing each other. The distance S1 between the opposing sliding resistance portions 311e is set to be slightly less than... Figure 4 The width S2 of the rotating rod 317b of the arm member 317 shown. Therefore, the arm member 317 pivots such that the side surface of the rotating rod 317b slides relative to the sliding resistance portion 311e while in pressure contact with the sliding resistance portion 311e. Therefore, the arm member 317 pivots towards the seat surface 318 while receiving a predetermined resistance from the sliding resistance portion 311e.

[0023] Refer again Figure 2 and Figure 3 A second wall portion 312 is provided on the doll holder 310, which stands upright on the second direction side of the seat surface 318. Here, the second direction side is the side different from the first direction side, and in this embodiment, it is the side opposite to the first direction side. The second wall portion 312 is opposite to the first wall portion 311 and is formed into a concave curved surface shape on the seat surface 318 side. In the second wall portion 312, a concave spherical recess 312a is formed from the upper surface of the second wall portion 312 to the surface on the seat surface 318 side. The recess 312a corresponds to the bulge 311a of the first wall portion 311 and is provided at approximately the center (approximately the center in the left-right direction when the doll is seated on the seat surface 318).

[0024] The doll holder 310 is open on the side of the seat surface 318 (i.e., between the first wall portion 311 and the second wall portion 312), allowing for easy placement of the doll. Furthermore, the first wall portion 311 and the second wall portion 312 are positioned along the rotation direction of the rotating body 320 (around...). Figure 1 The rotation direction of the center of the rotating body 320 is set in the front-back direction of the doll holder 310.

[0025] like Figures 7A to 7C As shown, the doll holder 310 is capable of holding dolls of various shapes and sizes. For example, in Figure 7A In this design, the anthropomorphic doll D1 abuts against the first wall portion 311 with its legs and against the second wall portion 312 with its back. Then, the arm member 317 pivots and abuts against the area from the chest to the abdomen of the doll D1. The abutting rod 317a of the curved arm member 317 can appropriately abut against the abdomen or chest of the doll D1, which typically has a roughly circular cross-section, and press the doll D1 down. Depending on the shape of the doll D1, the bulge 311a can press between the legs of the doll D1. In this way, the doll D1 can be held in place, preventing it from falling off the doll holder 310.

[0026] In addition, Figure 7B In the case of doll D2, the large doll D2 is held by doll holder 310. With doll D2, by pulling up the arm member 317 so that the bulge 311a abuts between the legs of doll D2 and the back of doll D2 abuts against the second wall 312, doll D2 can be held in a manner that is sandwiched between the bulge 311a and the second wall 312.

[0027] In addition, Figure 7C In the middle, the small doll D3 is held by the doll holder 310. In the case of doll D3, even if the legs of doll D3 do not reach the first wall portion 311 or the bulge portion 311a, doll D3 can be held by bringing the head of doll D3 into contact with the recess 312a of the second wall portion 312 and pressing the arm member 317 near the abdomen of doll D3.

[0028] According to the embodiments of this disclosure as described above, toys for doll play can be provided in the following aspects.

[0029] According to a first aspect, a toy for doll play includes: a rotating body rotatably disposed; a doll holder disposed on the rotating body and configured to hold a doll, the doll holder comprising: a seat on which a doll can be placed; a first wall portion erected on a first direction side of the seat portion, the first wall portion including a bulge extending toward the seat portion; a second wall portion erected on a second direction side of the seat portion opposite to the first wall portion, the second wall portion including a recess corresponding to the bulge portion; and an arm member disposed in the first wall portion and pivotally disposed on the seat portion side.

[0030] According to this structure, since it can reliably hold dolls of various shapes and sizes, the dolls will not fall off the rotating body, thus providing a toy for doll play that includes a play section such as a carousel. In particular, when the dolls are anthropomorphic animals, since the dolls have different shapes for various animal patterns, even when using various dolls such as dolls from infant to adult stages, it is possible to play with them without the dolls falling off the doll holder.

[0031] In the doll play toy according to the second aspect, the first wall portion and the second wall portion are arranged along the rotation direction of the rotating body.

[0032] According to this construction, the doll can be placed on the seat with the first wall on the front and the second wall on the rear, thus providing a doll play toy including a play section such as a carousel.

[0033] In the doll play toy according to the third aspect, the arm component is formed in a T-shape.

[0034] According to this construction, depending on the shape of the doll, the T-shaped crossbar can abut against the abdomen or chest, thus holding the doll more reliably.

[0035] In the doll play toy according to the fourth aspect, the arm component is disposed in an opening formed in the bulge.

[0036] This design allows for the holding of the doll while providing a larger seating area.

[0037] In the doll play toy according to the fifth aspect, a sliding resistance part is provided in the opening, the sliding resistance part being configured to slidably contact the arm member to apply resistance against the pivoting movement of the arm member.

[0038] According to this construction, resistance is applied to the pivoting movement of the anti-arm component, thereby reliably holding the doll in place.

[0039] In the doll play toy according to the sixth aspect, the doll retainer is open between the first wall portion and the second wall portion.

[0040] According to this design, the doll can be easily placed on the doll holder.

[0041] While embodiments of the present disclosure have been described above, the present disclosure is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention. For example, three doll holders 310 are provided on the rotating body 310, but providing more than one doll holder 310 is also sufficient.
