[0014] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The doll stand 1 shown in FIG. is supported on a base member 2. The doll stand 1 includes a support shaft member 10 and a doll holding member 20. The support shaft member 10 is formed in a generally rod-like shape with a wavy curve and has a first end 11 and a second end 12, the first end 11 being one side ( Figure 1 and Figure 2 The second end 12 is the other side ( Figure 1 and Figure 2 Except for the second end portion 12, the support shaft member 10 is formed to have substantially the same diameter.

[0015] The first end portion 11 can be inserted into the insertion hole 2a on the base member 2 (a portion to which the doll stand 1 can be attached). The base member 2 is formed in a generally circular plate shape and has the insertion hole 2a provided at an eccentric position to allow the doll to be displayed in a balanced manner. The insertion hole 2a is formed as a circular recessed portion protruding from the upper surface of the base member 2. The first end portion 11 is formed in a generally straight cylindrical shape. The first end portion 11 and the insertion hole 2a fit each other to the extent that the first end portion is not easily dislodged.

[0016] The first end portion 11 is connected to the first curved portion 13a. Figure 2 In the side view of , the first curved portion 13a is curved to bulge to the left. The first curved portion 13a is connected to the second curved portion 13b on the second end portion 12 side. The second curved portion 13b is curved to bulge toward the opposite side of the first curved portion 13a. Specifically, Figure 2 In the side view of FIG. 1 , the second curved portion 13b is curved to bulge rightward. In other words, the second curved portion 13b is curved (bulge rightward) toward the side opposite to the first curved portion 13a (bulge leftward).

[0017] The first curved portion 13a and the second curved portion 13b are both curved into an arc shape. Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1 , when the bending radius of the first curved portion 13a is R1 and the bending radius of the second curved portion 13b is R2, R1>R2. Therefore, the curvature (1 / R2) of the second curved portion 13b is greater than the curvature (1 / R1) of the first curved portion 13a. Thus, the length L1 of the first curved portion 13a is formed to be longer than the length L2 of the second curved portion 13b (L1>L2).

[0018] The doll holding member 20 includes a doll holding portion 21. The doll holding portion 21 is formed in a generally plate-like shape and has a protrusion 21b protruding from a holding body 21a and an elastic protrusion 21c disposed opposite to the protrusion 21b. A connection portion 21b1 between the protrusion 21b and the holding body 21a on the elastic protrusion 21c side is formed at an acute angle.

[0019] The elastic protrusion 21c is formed in a substantially arc shape, protruding from the clamping body 21a to the protrusion 21b. The clamping body 21a is formed with an arc-shaped slit 21a1 to follow the elastic protrusion 21c. The elastic protrusion 21c has elastic force. Therefore, a part of the doll can be clamped and held between the protrusion 21b and the elastic protrusion 21c.

[0020] The doll holding member 20 includes a ball receiving portion 22, which is arranged opposite to the doll holding portion 21 and is configured to cooperate with the spherical second end 12 to form a spherical joint. The ball receiving portion 22 is integrally connected to the clamping body 21a and is formed into a substantially bottomed cylindrical shape. The side surface of the ball receiving portion 22 is provided with a pair of facing slits 22a. The inner diameter of the ball receiving portion 22 is formed to be slightly smaller than the ball diameter of the second end 12. Therefore, when the second end 12 is inserted into the ball receiving portion 22, the inner diameter portion of the ball receiving portion 22 expands through the slit 22a, generating an elastic force to hold the second end 12. The depth of the inner diameter portion of the ball receiving portion 22 is formed to be sufficient to accommodate the depth of the second end 12. In this way, the spherical joint is composed of the inner diameter portion of the ball receiving portion 22 and the second end 12. Therefore, the doll holding member 20 is allowed to slide freely around the spherical second end 12 and can remain stationary at any desired position.

[0021] like Figure 3 As shown, the doll stand 1 can be mounted on a desk or the like by being attached to the base member 2. Providing the protrusion 21b and the elastic protrusion 21c in the vertical direction allows the doll 5 to be attached to the doll stand 1, for example, by clamping the center portion of the butterfly-shaped wing 5a attached to the back of the doll 5. By adjusting the direction of the doll stand 21 using a ball joint, the doll 5 can be displayed on a desk or the like with an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

[0022] Note that when the protrusion 21b and the elastic protrusion 21c are in the horizontal direction, the doll can be mounted and displayed on a table or the like while clamping, for example, the torso portion of the doll.

[0023] Alternatively, if Figure 4 As shown, the doll stand 1 can be attached by inserting the first end portion 11 into the insertion hole 7a (the portion to which the doll stand 1 can be attached) provided on the wall surface or the like of the toy 7, as if the doll 5 is flying while looking down. In this case, by adjusting the direction of the doll holding member 20 with the ball joint, the doll stand 1, particularly the support shaft member 10, can be hidden on the rear side of the doll 5 within the range of the user's sight line E indicated by the dotted line, so that the user can enjoy seeing the doll 5 as if it is floating in the air in the toy 7 to play with the doll.

[0024] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a doll stand according to the following aspects may be provided.

[0025] A doll stand according to a first aspect includes: a support shaft member including: a first end configured to be attachable to an attachable portion of the doll stand; a second end formed in a spherical shape; a first curved portion formed between the first end and the second end so as to protrude in a first direction; and a second curved portion formed between the first curved portion and the second end so as to protrude toward a second direction opposite to the first direction; and a doll clamping member including: a doll clamping portion configured to clamp and hold a portion of a doll; and a ball receiving portion disposed opposite to the doll holding portion and configured to cooperate with the second end to form a spherical joint.

[0026] According to this configuration, a doll stand can be provided which can be displayed on a table or the like when the first end portion is attached to the base member, and the bent support shaft member is hidden in the shadow of the doll and is difficult to see when attached to a toy for doll play or the like. This allows the doll stand to be displayed on a mounting surface such as a table for appreciation, while also allowing the imagination of the doll appearing to fly to be enhanced by being attached to a toy for doll play or the like.

[0027] In the doll stand according to the second aspect, the curvature of the second curved portion is greater than the curvature of the first curved portion.

[0028] According to this configuration, when the doll is held and displayed on the wall of a toy for a doll game or the like, the support shaft member can be further hidden in the shadow of the doll, making it more difficult to see.

[0029] In the doll clamp according to the third aspect, the doll clamping portion includes: a clamping body; a protrusion protruding from the clamping body; and an elastic protrusion disposed opposite to the protrusion and protruding from the clamping body in a convex curved shape to have elasticity.

[0030] According to this configuration, one side is configured as a fixing protrusion and the other side is configured as an elastic protrusion having elasticity, allowing the doll to be securely held.

[0031] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the main idea. Figure 5 In the modified doll stand 1A shown, the doll holding portion 21A may include elastic protrusions 21Ac having elasticity and arranged opposite to each other, while omitting the protrusions 21b of the present embodiment. With this configuration, a larger doll can be held and retained by the doll stand 21A.
