FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0010] An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The toy house 1 shown in FIG. 1 is open on the front side and is formed to resemble a two-story house. The toy house 1 has a toy house body 10 that resembles a house, a plate-shaped base member 100, and an accessory toy 200 that is a sliding toy that also serves as a climbing toy for the toy house. In the following description, the left side when looking at the toy house 1 from the front side is referred to as the left, the right side as the right, the upper side as the up, the lower side as the down, the front side as the front, and the opposite side as the back.

[0011] The house toy main body 10 includes plate-shaped wall portions 11 provided opposite to each other on the left and right, and a plate-shaped connecting wall portion 12 provided to connect the rear sides of the two wall portions 11. The house toy main body 10 includes a floor member 13 that constitutes the second floor. A part of the roof is formed on the rear side of the second floor. The house toy main body 10 is provided with an accessory toy 200 that is attached to the house toy 1 and resembles a ladder for moving between the first and second floors, from the base member 100 that constitutes the first floor to the floor member 13. The accessory toy 200 will be described in detail later, but it can be played with as a climbing toy like a ladder as shown in FIG. 1, or can be folded and played with as a slide toy (see FIG. 6).

[0012] As shown in FIG. 2, the accessory toy 200 as a climbing toy and slide toy for a house toy has a first member 210 and a second member 220 connected to the first member 210 via a hinge portion 250. The first member 210 and the second member 220 can be folded at the hinge portion 250. The first member 210 and the second member 220 can be transformed into a ladder toy by extending them, and into a slide toy by folding them. The second member 220 is provided longer than the first member 210. Both the first member 210 and the second member 220 are provided with main plate members 211, 221 formed in a substantially rectangular plate shape, and two side plates 212, 222 provided opposite both ends of the main plate members 211, 221 in the width direction. The two side plates 212, 222 are formed symmetrically. The distance between the two side plates 212 and the distance between the two side plates 222 are substantially the same.

[0013] One side surface of the main plate members 211, 221 (surface shown in FIG. 2) is the lifting surface 230. The other side surface of the main plate members 211, 221 is the slide surface 240 (see FIG. 3). The slide surface 240 constitutes the opposite side of the lifting surface 230. In other words, the lifting surface 230 and the slide surface 240 are a pair of surfaces. The lifting surface 230 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 233 protruding from the main plate members 211, 221 across the side plates 212, 222, imitating rod-shaped steps in a ladder. The lifting surface 230 of the accessory toy 200 is a surface used when the accessory toy 200 is stretched out in a straight line as shown in FIG. 2 or FIG. 3. On the other hand, the slide surface 240 of the accessory toy 200 is a surface used when the accessory toy 200 is folded as shown in FIG. 7 and played with as a slide toy.

[0014] As shown in FIG. 2, the ascent surface 230 of the first member 210 is a first ascent surface 231. As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the slide surface 240 of the first member 210 is a slide ascent surface 241. The slide ascent surface 241 is provided with a plurality of (four in this embodiment) horizontal plates 241a, 241b provided between the two side plates 212. In this manner, the slide ascent surface 241 is formed in a stepped staircase shape. Note that, as shown in FIG. 6, when the accessory toy 200 is used as a slide, the lower surfaces of the horizontal plates 241a, 241b in FIG. 4 become step surfaces 241a1, 241b1 as tread surfaces.

[0015] The step surface 241b1 of the side plate 241b located at the end of the first member 210 is set as the first step surface in the installed state as a slide toy (see Figs. 6 and 7). The step surface 241b1 is provided at an incline so as to descend from the main plate member 211 toward the end of the side plate 241b relative to the step surface 241a1 of the other side plate 241a. In other words, the side plate 241b is provided at an incline so as to widen relative to the other side plate 241a from the main plate member 211 toward the end of the side plate 241b (the end on the slide surface 240 side) relative to the other side plate 241a.

[0016] 2, the end of the horizontal plate 241b on the main plate member 211 side (the lifting surface 230 side) protrudes from the surface of the main plate member 211 to form a protrusion 233. As shown in Fig. 4, first engagement portions 251 having a protruding shaft shape protruding in the left and right directions from the side plate 212 are provided on the side of the first member 210 opposite the horizontal plate 241b. Bulging portions 213 bulging in the axial direction of the first engagement portions 251 are provided between the first engagement portions 251.

[0017] As shown in Fig. 2, the horizontal plate 241b is the lowest one, and the lifting surface 230 side of the horizontal plate 241a located in the uppermost one protrudes from the main plate member 211 as a protrusion 233. Also, as shown in Fig. 3, a long groove 214 is provided in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the side plate 212 near the end of the first engagement portion 251 on the outer surface of each of the two side plates 212. Also, as shown in the enclosed view of part P in Fig. 2, a restricting protrusion 215 is provided on the edge surface of each side plate 212 on the lifting surface 230 side near the end of each side plate 212 on the side of the uppermost horizontal plate 241a.

[0018] As shown in Fig. 2, the lifting surface 230 of the second member 220 is a second lifting surface 232. The second lifting surface 232 is also provided with a plurality of protrusions 233 similar to those described above. As shown in Fig. 3, a slide surface 242 (the slide surface 240 of the second member 220, that is, the slide surface 242) forming the opposite side of the second lifting surface 232 of the second member 220 is a continuous flat surface, and a doll can be slid down when playing with a doll.

[0019] As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, a bearing 252 is provided at each end of the two side plates 222 on the hinge portion 250 side. The bearing 252 is formed in a substantially annular shape so as to protrude from the outer surface of the side plate 222, and a hole in the center is the second engagement portion 252a. The first engagement portion 251 of the first member 210 is inserted into the second engagement portion 252a of the second member 220. In this manner, the first engagement portion 251 is inserted into the second engagement portion 252a and engaged in a concave-convex manner. In other words, the hinge portion 250 is configured by a concave-convex engagement of the first engagement portion 251 and the second engagement portion 252a. That is, in this embodiment, the first engagement portion 251 is convex and the second engagement portion 252a is concave, but the first engagement portion 251 may be concave and the second engagement portion 252a may be convex.

[0020] Each bearing 252 is provided with a support plate 223 that protrudes in a generally triangular plate shape from the annular side surface. A protrusion 223a is provided on the opposing surface of the support plate 223 that faces in the left-right direction (longitudinal direction of the protrusion 233) as viewed in FIG. 3 (see the enclosed diagram of part Q in FIG. 3). The support plate 223 is also connected to the side plate 222. The support plate 223 is disposed outside the side plate 212 of the first member 210.

[0021] A slit S1 of a predetermined length is provided between the main plate member 221 on the hinge portion 250 side and each side plate 222. The thickness of the side plate 222 is set to be thicker on the lift surface 230 in accordance with the protrusion 233 (see FIG. 2), and is set to be thinner on the slide surface 240 (242) than the thickness on the lift surface 230 side.

[0022] 2, the end of each side plate 222 on the hinge portion 250 side is formed in a notch shape, and a restrictive abutment surface 222a is provided as a flat surface perpendicular to the outer inner surface (plate surface) of the side plate 222. In addition, a reinforcing protrusion 222b extending outward from this notch portion is connected to the bearing 252, and reinforces the connection between the bearing 252 and the side plate 222.

[0023] When the accessory toy 200 is used as a climbing toy like a ladder, the opening angle between the first member 210 and the second member 220 is set to about 180 degrees so that the climbing surface 230 is continuous. At this time, as shown in FIG. 3, the step surface 241a1 of the horizontal plate 241a on the hinge part 250 side abuts against the end surface of the slide surface 242 of the second member 220, and the opening angle in the opening direction of the first member 210 and the second member 220 is restricted. Furthermore, the protrusion 223a of the support plate 223 of the second member 220 is inserted into and engaged with the groove 214 of the side plate 212 of the first member 210. As a result, the movement of the first member 210 and the second member 220 in the direction away from each other is restricted.

[0024] The accessory toy 200 thus configured as a climbing toy can be installed so that the step surface 241b1 of the horizontal board 241b abuts against the upper surface of the floor member 13 of the second floor of the house toy main body 10, as shown in FIG. 5. Since the horizontal board 241b is inclined, the surface opposite the step surface 241b1 can be made substantially parallel to the upper surface of the floor member 13. The floor member 13 is engaged by being sandwiched between the surface opposite the step surface 241a1 of the horizontal board 241a adjacent to the horizontal board 241b and the step surface 241b1 of the horizontal board 241b. In this way, the accessory toy 200 is formed so that the first member 210 can be engaged with the floor member 13, and the tip of the second member 220 can abut against the base member 100. This reduces the possibility that the attached toy 200 in the ladder state will become perpendicular to the floor member 13 and tip over, even if a force F pressing against the ascending and descending surface 230 is applied to the attached toy 200 when the doll plays as if climbing a ladder. The depth dimension of the side boards 241a, 241b (the dimension from the main board member 211 to the tip of the side boards 241a, 241b) is designed so that the attached toy 200 in the ladder state will not become perpendicular to the floor member 13.

[0025] When the accessory toy 200 is used as a slide toy, the first member 210 and the second member 220 are rotated relatively around the hinge portion 250 so that the lifting surfaces 230 (first lifting surface 231, second lifting surface 232) of the first member 210 and the second member 220 approach each other, as shown in Figs. 6 and 7. The relative rotation of the first member 210 and the second member 220 is continued until the restricting protrusion 215 of the first member 210 abuts against the restricting abutment surface 222a of the second member 220. Since the end portion (the end portion opposite the hinge portion 250) of the side plate 212 of the first member 210 is formed at a right angle in a side view, the first member 210 can be provided so as to stand upright with respect to the installation surface.

[0026] Here, since the tip of each side plate 222 of the second member 220 has a corner 222c on the lift surface 230 side that is C-chamfered, the tip of the second member 220 can be stably abutted against the ground surface and placed thereon.

[0027] Here, when the first member 210 and the second member 220 are rotated relatively to transform the accessory toy 200 from the slide toy state to the ladder toy state, if a foreign object such as a finger is caught between the support plate 223 near the hinge portion 250 and the side plate 212 of the first member 210, or between the end face of the side plate 222 near the hinge portion 250 and the horizontal plate 241a of the first member 210, the end of each side plate 222 of the second member 220 on the hinge portion 250 side is elastic due to the slit S1, so that the portion of each side plate 222 corresponding to the slit S1 opens outward. Then, the bearing 252 also moves outward with the movement of each side plate 222 outward, and the first engagement portion 251 comes out of the second engagement portion 252a, and the concave-convex engagement by the first engagement portion 251 and the second engagement portion 252a is released, and the first member 210 and the second member 220 are disassembled. The portion of the side plate 222 supporting the bearing 252 (the portion of the side plate 222 corresponding to the slit S1) has elasticity, so that the first engagement portion 251 can be easily fitted into the second engagement portion 252a and re-engaged in a concave-convex manner.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 6, the floor member 13 of the second floor of the toy house 1 is detachable by the guide member 4 provided on the inner surface of the opposing wall portion 11. Here, the guide member 4 can slide on the long guide surface 4a that is long in the front-rear direction. The guide member 4 also has a guide rib 4b in the left-right direction above the guide surface 4a. The guide rib 4b is shaped to fill the gap between the inner surfaces of the left and right wall portions 11 that are provided to expand forward and the side surface of the rectangular floor member 13. If the floor member 13 is made trapezoidal to match the expanding wall portion 11, the floor member 13 may be set in the guide member 4 in the wrong front-rear direction, which may cause damage. In the toy house 1, the floor member 13 is formed into a rectangle by the guide rib 4b. This makes it possible to eliminate the directional nature of the insertion direction of the floor member 13 when setting the floor member 13 in the guide portion 4.

[0029] The floor member 13 removed from the toy house 1 can be placed in front of the base member 100 to expand the floor portion of the toy house 1. Then, the accessory toy 200, which is a slide toy, can be placed on the floor portion of the expanded room and played with.

[0030] According to the embodiment of the present invention as described above, a house toy having the following configuration can be provided.

[0031] The first aspect of the present invention relates to a house toy lifting toy / slide toy having a first member with a first lifting surface and a slide lifting surface constituting a first lifting surface and the opposite side of the first lifting surface, and a second member with a second lifting surface and a slide surface constituting a second lifting surface and the opposite side of the second lifting surface, the second member being rotatably connected to the first member via a hinge portion so that the first lifting surface and the second lifting surface are connected.

[0032] According to this configuration, when playing with the climbing toy for house toy as a climbing toy such as a ladder toy or a staircase toy, the first climbing surface of the first member and the second climbing surface of the second member can be used, and when playing with it as a slide toy, the slide climbing surface of the first member which becomes the climbing part of the step staircase or the like of the slide toy and the slide surface of the second member can be used. Thus, it is possible to provide a climbing toy / slide toy for house toy that can be transformed from a climbing toy to a slide toy.

[0034] According to this configuration, a resilient force is applied to the first engaging portion or the second engaging portion by the slit, so that even if a foreign object or the like is caught between the first member and the second member, the concave-convex engagement of the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion can be released, thereby reducing damage to the caught foreign object or the like. Note that in this embodiment, the first engaging portion is convex and the second engaging portion is concave, but the first engaging portion may be concave and the second engaging portion may be convex. Also, in this embodiment, the second engaging portion is provided via a slit, but the first engaging portion may be provided via a slit.

[0035] In the house toy / slide toy that can also be used as a lifting toy, the slide toy according to the third aspect has a step-like lifting surface for the slide that is provided with a plurality of horizontal boards, and the step surface of the first step is provided at an incline.

[0036] With this configuration, when played with as a ladder toy, even if the ladder toy is leaned against the floor member that forms the second floor of the house toy, the surface opposite the first step surface can be made approximately parallel to the upper surface of the floor member, thereby providing a good-looking climbing toy / slide toy for house toy.

[0037] In the house toy / lifting toy / slide toy according to a fourth aspect, the first lifting surface and the second lifting surface are formed to resemble a ladder.
