[0023] Fig. 1 shows a side view and a plan view of one embodiment of a toy article of the present invention. Fig. 1(a) is a side view before the color change, Fig. 1(b) is a plan view before the color change, Fig. 1(c) is a side view after the color change, and Fig. 1(d) is a plan view after the color change.

[0024] As shown in Figs. 1(a) and (b), the toy 1 is shaped to resemble a flower 10 as a target object. The flower 10 has a center 11a, a corolla 11b with multiple petals (six petals in this embodiment) surrounding the center 11a, and a support part 15 resembling a stem having leaves 15b. The flower 10 is configured so that at least a part of its color can be changed by temperature change. For example, as a color-changeable area, a display change part 11 is provided on the upper surface side 10u of the flower 10. The display change part 11 is composed of the corolla 11b and the center 11a, at least one of which is configured as a changeable area E1 that changes color. As shown in Figs. 1(c) and (d), the changeable area E1 in this embodiment is configured so that the corolla 11b is configured as the changeable area E1, and the non-changeable area E2, which is an area that cannot change color, is configured as the center 11a.

[0025] Here, for example, a temperature-sensitive ink is applied to the change area E1, and not to the non-change area E2. This temperature-sensitive ink is capable of changing color depending on temperature, and a known ink can be used. In this embodiment, the temperature-sensitive ink is colorless (i.e., transparent) in the range of 26°C to 32°C, and is colored in a range of 10°C to 16°C, for example, yellow, purple, light blue, blue, pink, or red to match the color of the flower, but is not limited thereto. The display change unit 11 has an upper surface 10u that is, for example, white (see Figs. 1(a) and 1(b)). Therefore, when the temperature is equal to or higher than a predetermined temperature (a temperature at which the color does not change), the flower 10 is white.

[0026] FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the back side of the flower 10. As shown in FIG. 2, a plurality of protruding ribs 13 are provided on the back surface side 11d of the display change portion 11. The protruding ribs 13 are configured to protrude in the thickness direction of the display change portion 11, and are provided, for example, radially from a protruding base portion 15a at the approximate center of the back surface side 11d to which the support portion 15 is connected, toward the outer circumferential edge 11e of the display change portion 11. The protruding ribs 13 are configured so that the amount of protrusion gradually decreases toward the outer circumferential edge 11e.

[0027] FIG. 3 shows a display base (holding portion) on which a flower 10 is attached, (a) being a perspective view of the display base, and (b) being a front view of the display base. 3, the toy 1 is provided with an exhibition base 20 as a holding section capable of holding a flower 10. The exhibition base 20 has an item holding section 21 whose bottom surface contacts the placement surface 100, and a character display section 28 standing upright substantially vertically from one end side (rear side) of the item holding section 21. For example, the item holding section 21 has three item fixing sections 22, 23, 24 protruding upward, and the character display section 28 has a character 30 provided on its front side and a flat area 28a provided beside the character 30 (on the right side in the figure).

[0028] The article fixing parts 22, 23, 24 are cylindrical projections protruding from the bottom surface, and have mounting holes 22h, 23h, 24h of the same size (hole diameter) provided in the center, so that the support part 15 of the flower 10 can be inserted. The article fixing parts 22, 23, 24 have different protruding heights, i.e., heights from the placement surface 100, and the mounting holes 22h, 23h, 24h have different depths. Moreover, the periphery of the article fixing parts 22, 23, 24 is formed in a recessed shape, which constitutes a liquid reservoir part 25 capable of storing the liquid W (see FIG. 12) when the liquid W is used, as described later.

[0029] The character display section 28 has a vertical planar structure. Between the character display section 28 and the item holding section 21, a step section 28b is provided that protrudes forward from the character display section 28. The step section 28b is provided with a pair of character holding holes 28h into which, for example, the tips of the legs of the character 30 are inserted to hold the character 30. Therefore, the character 30 is provided detachably, and the character 30 can be changed as necessary. In addition, when the character 30 is attached to the character display section 28, a planar area 28a is provided beside the character display section 28. The area 28a is used, for example, as an area for attaching a display indicating that the character is a "florist" or stickers of other characters (see FIG. 13).

[0030] FIG. 4 is a side view of the display base 20. 4, the character 30 attached to the character display unit 28 has a three-dimensional shape protruding forward (toward the article holding unit 21) from the display surface 28s. The multiple article fixing units 22, 23, 24 are not only different in protruding height as described above, but are also arranged at different distances from the character display unit 28.

[0031] FIG. 5 is a front view of the flower 10 when it is attached to the display base. When attaching the flower 10 to the display base 20, the tip of the support part 15 of the flower 10 (the lower tip in the figure) is inserted into the attachment holes 22h, 23h, 24h as shown in Fig. 5. In this case, by attaching three types of flowers 10 (10A, 10B, 10C), the flowers 10 can be diversified and the display base 20 can be presented as a "florist" for the character 30.

[0032] FIG. 6 is a side view of the display base 20 with the flower 10 attached thereto. 6, when the flowers 10A, 10B, and 10C are attached, the corolla 11b and center 11a of the display change part 11 are held at a height position away from the holding surface 21u of the display base 20, and the corolla 11b and center 11a of the flower 10 are displayed at different height positions when viewed from the side or front. That is, as will be described later, when the color is changed by pouring liquid W, the color is in different positions front to back and up to down, creating a colorful effect.

[0033] FIG. 7 is a plan view of the display base 20 with the flower 10 attached thereto. 7, when the flowers 10 are attached to the display base 20, all the flowers 10 are positioned inside the item holding section 21. That is, the item holding section 21 is configured such that, in a plan view with the flowers 10 held therein, the outer edge 21e of the liquid reservoir 25 capable of holding the liquid W is positioned outside the flowers 10. This allows, for example, when the liquid W is poured from above, the liquid W to be received in the liquid reservoir 25 without spilling.

[0034] Fig. 8 is a plan view and a side view showing an example of a container member in the toy 1. Fig. 9 is a plan view and a side view showing another example of the container member. In the toy 1, a watering can 60 as shown in FIG. 8 and a bouquet container 70 as shown in FIG. 9 are provided as container members capable of storing and pouring the liquid W.

[0035] 8, the watering can 60 comprises a substantially cylindrical main body 61 capable of storing liquid W such as water, a handle 62 provided at one end of the main body 61, and a spout 63 protruding on the opposite side to the handle 62 and allowing the liquid W to flow out. An open opening 64 is provided at the upper end of the main body 61. The opening 64 is closed on the spout 63 side by a semicircular wall portion 64a.

[0036] As shown in Fig. 9, the bouquet container 70 has a main body 71 with an elliptical opening 74 at the top, the diameter of which increases from the bottom 72 upward. The opening dimension L3 of the opening 74 is configured to be just the right size when multiple flowers 10 are inserted (see Fig. 14). The depth L4 of the bouquet container 70 is set to a depth such that the corolla 11b protrudes above the opening 74 when the support part 15 of the flower 10 is inserted. The bouquet container 70 is capable of storing a liquid W therein.

[0037] Fig. 10 is a front view, a side view, and a rear view showing an example of a rod-shaped member in toy 1. Fig. 11 is a plan view, a side view, and a front view showing another example of a rod-shaped member. In toy 1, a rod-shaped member 80 with a large tip diameter as shown in Fig. 10 and a pencil-shaped rod-shaped member 90 as shown in Fig. 11 are provided as rod-shaped members that can be used when applying liquid W.

[0038] 10, a sponge holding portion 82 to which a porous sponge portion 81 that absorbs liquid W is attached is configured in a plane substantially parallel to the axis CL of the rod-shaped member 80. An outer surface 81s of the sponge portion 81 and the sponge holding portion 82 that holds the sponge portion 81 are both formed as circular planes substantially parallel to the axis CL, and are configured to have a larger diameter than the gripping portion 83. As shown in FIG. 10(c), the sponge holding part 82 has a pattern of the character 31 drawn on the reverse side opposite to the side where the sponge part 81 is provided. The outer diameter L5 of the sponge holding part 82 is smaller than the opening dimension L1 of the opening 64 of the watering can 60 and the opening dimension L3 of the opening of the bouquet container 70. This allows the sponge holding part 82 to be inserted into the container member (the watering can 60, the bouquet container 70) and the sponge part 81 to be immersed in the liquid W in the container. The outer diameter of the sponge part 81 is not particularly limited, but may be made to match or be close to the outer diameter dimension L7 of the flower 10 shown in FIG. 1. In this case, the sponge part 81 allows the color of the entire flower 10 to be changed quickly.

[0039] 11 shows a rod-shaped member 90 having a porous, spherical sponge portion 91 for absorbing liquid W provided on a sponge holding portion 92 provided on one end side in the direction of axis line CL of the rod-shaped member 90. That is, the sponge portion 91 provided on the sponge holding portion 92 is configured such that its outer surface 91s is curved so as to bulge toward one end side of axis line CL. Also, the portion of a grip portion 93 to be gripped by fingers is configured to be thinner overall than the case shown in FIG. 11(c), a design of the character 32 is drawn on the side of the gripping portion 93. Furthermore, the outer diameter L6 of the sponge holding portion 92 is smaller than the opening dimension L1 of the opening 64 of the watering can 60 and the opening dimension L3 of the opening of the bouquet container 70, so that the sponge holding portion 92 can be inserted into the container members (watering can 60, bouquet container 70) and the sponge portion 91 can be immersed in the liquid W in the container.

[0040] Furthermore, the depth dimensions (L2 and L4) of the watering can 60 and the bouquet container 70 are configured to be smaller than the longitudinal dimensions of the rod-shaped members 80, 90. Therefore, even if the rod-shaped members 80, 90 are dropped into the watering can 60 and the bouquet container 70, the dimensions are set so that they can be easily removed.

[0041] Fig. 12 is a perspective view of the flower 10 attached to the display base 20. Fig. 13 is a perspective view showing an example of how to play with the flower 10 attached to the display base 20.

[0042] How to play with toy 1 will now be described. As shown in FIG. 12, when playing with the display base 20, for example, three kinds of flowers 10A, 10B, and 10C are attached. Also, a sticker 29 is attached to the area 28a. The display base 20 further includes a holding section capable of holding the target item. The target object is configured such that at least a part of the upper surface of the target object can change color due to temperature change when held in the holding part. In this state, at room temperature, the flowers 10A, 10B, and 10C are not particularly brightly colored, and are the same overall color, for example, white, as shown in the figure. Then, as shown in Figure 13, for example, liquid W (cold water, etc.) at a certain temperature is poured from above using a watering can 60. Then, the flowers 10A, 10B, and 10C change color to a color that reflects the individuality of each flower 10A, 10B, and 10C.

[0043] FIG. 14 is a perspective view showing another example of how to play with the toy 1. In FIG. Another way to play is to make a bouquet, as shown in FIG. 14. For example, a number of flowers 10A, 10B are inserted into a bouquet container 70. Then, for the flower 10B, a rod-shaped member 90 is used to change the color of each petal, not the entire corolla 10b, as shown in the figure. In this case, the contact surface of the outer surface 91s of the rod-shaped member 90 is sufficiently small compared to the dimension L8 of the petal, allowing partial color change as shown in the figure. Also, when the rod-shaped member 80 is used, a large area of ​​the flower 10A can be changed in color at once. When the rod-shaped members 80, 90 are used in this way, spilling of the liquid W onto other parts is avoided.

[0044] As described above, in this embodiment, the color-changing object imitates the flower 10, so that a gorgeous and fun presentation can be made by changing the color of the flower 10 in various ways. Also, since the display change part 11 of the flower 10 has a change area E1 that can change color and a non-change area E2 that does not change color, it is possible to enjoy the emphasis and visibility of the color change between the areas where no color change occurs. In particular, since at least one of the corolla 11b and the center 11a is the change area E1, it is possible to enjoy the overall color change of the corolla 11b and center 11a of the flower 10 or the color change of the partial flower 10, and depending on the type of flower 10, it is possible to enjoy realistic color changes.

[0045] In this embodiment, a character display section 28 displaying a character 30 is provided on the side of the article holding section 21 that holds the flower 10, and is generally perpendicular to the article holding section 21, so that the character 30 can be associated with the flower 10 held by the article holding section 21 and enjoyed. For example, the flower 10 is provided so as to be removable from the display base 20, so that a "play florist" can be enjoyed by simulating the delivery of the flower 10 to the character 30.

[0046] In addition, in this embodiment, the upper surface 10u of the flower 10 displayed on the display base 20 can change color due to the liquid W, so that liquid W such as water can be easily supplied from above, allowing the viewer to enjoy the change in color.

[0047] In this embodiment, the flower 10 is attached by the support part 15 so that the display changing part 11 is spaced apart from the holding surface 21u of the display base 20, so that the display changing part 11 can be displayed three-dimensionally on the display base 20. Also, since the display changing part 11 is spaced apart from the holding surface 21u, even if the holding surface is configured to hold the liquid W by the liquid reservoir part 25 having a recessed shape, it is possible to prevent the display changing part 11 from being immersed in the liquid W.

[0048] In this embodiment, the protruding ribs 13 are provided on the back side 11d of the display change part 11, so that the strength of the display change part 11 can be increased even if the thickness of the display change part 11 is reduced. Furthermore, the protruding ribs 13 can change the surface area of ​​the back side 11d and the volume of the display change part 11. This allows the heat dissipation performance of the display change part 11 (heat dissipation function due to the heat dissipation fin action) to be changed, and also allows the heat capacity due to the change in volume to be changed. As a result, it becomes possible to adjust functions such as the speed of temperature change of the display change part 11 and the maintenance of the color change state.

[0049] In this embodiment, the article holding unit 21 is provided with a plurality of article fixing units 22, 23, 24 that hold the flowers 10 at different heights, so that the display height of the flowers 10 can be changed, and a three-dimensional display can be produced. Furthermore, the plurality of article fixing units 22, 23, 24 that hold the flowers 10 are configured to have different distances from the character display unit 28, so that the display width of the flowers 10 can be produced.

[0050] In addition, in this embodiment, the character 30 is formed in a three-dimensional shape that protrudes forward from the area 28a where stickers can be attached, etc., so that a sense of depth can be created between the character 30 and the sticker design.

[0051] In this embodiment, the outer edge 21e of the liquid reservoir 25 is located outside the outer diameter of the flower 10 fixed to the item holding portion 21 in a planar view, so that, for example, liquid W sprayed on the flower 10 can be reliably received.

[0052] In this embodiment, by including a container member (watering can 60, bouquet container 70) that can store and pour liquid W, and rod-shaped members 80, 90 having sponge holding parts 82, 92 provided with sponge parts 81, 91 that can contain liquid W, it is possible to enjoy different color changes by using the watering can 60 in a different way, whether it is to apply a large amount of liquid W or to apply a small amount of liquid W partially. For example, when liquid W is poured using the watering can 60, particularly using a watering can 60 with a lotus spout 63, a fun presentation of watering the flowers 10 can be produced.

[0053] In addition, the rod-shaped members 80, 90 have sponge portions 81, 91 formed on a plane substantially parallel to the axis CL of the rod-shaped members 80, 90, so that the liquid W can be dispensed by a motion of shaking (rocking motion) the axis CL of the rod-shaped members 80, 90, and can be used even by relatively young children. In addition, the sponge holding portions 82, 92 can have a relatively large planar structure on the back side 11d that holds the sponge portions 81, 91, so that an area can be provided for arranging patterns.

[0054] Furthermore, in a structure in which the sponge portion 81, 91 is provided on one end side of the axis CL direction of the rod-shaped member 80, 90, the rod-shaped member 80, 90 can be used like holding a pen or pencil. Also, since the outer surfaces 81s, 91s of the sponge portion 81, 91 are curved so as to bulge towards one end, the liquid W can be applied with a small contact area.

[0055] In addition, in this embodiment, the sponge holding portion 82, 92 is configured to be smaller than the opening 64, 74 of the container member, so that the sponge portion 81, 91 can be immersed in the liquid W contained in the container member, and the rod-shaped members 80, 90 can be contained and stored in the container member.

[0056] The above-described embodiment is merely an example of one aspect of the invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above description. For example, the display change section 11 in the above embodiment is configured to have a change area E1 and a non-change area E2, but the display change section 11 may be configured to change color entirely without providing the non-change area E2.

[0057] As described above, the present specification discloses the following:
