[0004] In Patent Document 1, there is no change in the shape of the secondary toy object, and therefore there is no mention of outputting different effects based on changes in the shape of the secondary toy object. However, from the perspective of further increasing the interest of the toy, it is desirable to output a variety of effects in response to changes in the shape of the secondary toy object.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0010] Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In all the drawings for explaining the embodiments, the same reference numerals are used for the members having the same functions, and the repeated explanations are omitted. In the following embodiments, the explanations of the same or similar parts will not be repeated as a rule, unless it is particularly necessary.

[0011] In addition, the X-direction, Y-direction, and Z-direction described in this application are mutually perpendicular. For simplicity of description in this application, the Z-direction may be described as the up-down direction, height direction, or thickness direction of a structure.

[0012] Furthermore, the plane consisting of the X direction and the Y direction forms a plane, which is perpendicular to the Z direction. In this application, the term "planar view" means viewing a plane consisting of the X direction and the Y direction from the Z direction, and means viewing a plane perpendicular to the Z direction. (Embodiment)

[0013] The effect output toy of this embodiment is a wristwatch-type toy, which realizes high entertainment value by outputting various effects. The effects are output when a medal is inserted into the effect output toy, when the disk of the effect output toy is rotated, or when a plate-shaped part on the disk surface of the disk is displaced. The effect content is, for example, sound or light, and varies depending on the type of medal, the position of the disk after rotation, the position of the plate-shaped part, etc., and varies widely depending on the combination of these. By outputting such effects, the user can experience a simulated transformation. <Configuration of the performance output toy>

[0014] The following describes the performance output toy 10 in the embodiment with reference to Figs. 1 to 7. In the embodiment, the performance output toy 10 is described as having the shape of a wristwatch as shown in Fig. 1, but may have any shape. The performance output toy 10 includes a main body (main toy body) 1 and a disk body (secondary toy body) 2 detachable from the main body 1. A belt 24 is attached to one side of the main body 1 in the Y direction, and a belt 25 is attached to the other side of the main body 1 in the Y direction. The main body 1 has a surface provided with an attachment surface 9 to which the disk body 2, which will be described later in Fig. 2, can be attached, and a back surface located on the opposite side to the first surface in the Z direction. The disk body 2 is attached to the attachment surface 9 on the front side of the main body 1, as will be described later in Fig. 2.

[0015] One side surface of the main body 1 in the Y direction is provided with an insertion port 3 through which medals, described later, can be inserted from the Y direction. In addition, although not shown, the other side surface of the main body 1 in the Y direction is provided with an ejection port through which medals can be ejected. A push switch 4 is provided on the side surface of the main body for ejecting medals from the ejection port when operated (pushed) by the user. In addition, a light-emitting section (effect output section) 5a, which is a section that outputs effects using light, is provided on the side surface of the main body 1 adjacent to the insertion port 3.

[0016] The disk body 2 attached to the mounting surface 9 can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise from a predetermined position in a plane consisting of the X and Y directions with respect to the main body 1, because the mounting surface 9 can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise from a predetermined position in a plane consisting of the X and Y directions with respect to the main body 1. In other words, the disk body 2 is rotatable, and the rotation axis is along the Z direction. For example, the disk body 2 can rotate within a range of 90 degrees from a predetermined position with respect to the main body 1. Here, the position where the disk body 2 has rotated counterclockwise from a predetermined position, which is the initial position, in a plan view in the Z axis direction is the first rotation position, and the position where the disk member 2 has rotated clockwise is the second rotation position. In FIG. 1, the disk member 2 is assumed to be located at the first rotation position. The base portion 6 of the disk body 2 is provided in the center of the upper surface and has a disk shape.

[0017] In a plan view, one operation unit 7 is provided at the end of the base 6. The operation unit 7 can be operated by pushing it toward the center of the panel in a direction along a plane made up of the X and Y directions. The operation unit 7 is biased in a direction away from the center of the panel, in a direction along the plane made up of the X and Y directions. Therefore, when a user presses the operation unit 7 with their finger and then releases the force with which they are pressing the operation unit 7, the operation unit 7 automatically returns to the position it was in before it was pressed.

[0018] A semicircular plate-like part (displacement part) 8 is provided on the circular surface of the plate-like part 8, and the semicircular surface of the plate-like part 8 occupies half the area of ​​the circular surface. In other words, the surface is divided into a first position 1A and a second position 2B along a plane consisting of the X and Y directions, with a center line passing through the center of the circular surface in a planar view as the boundary, and in Fig. 1, the plate-like part 8 is located at the first position 1A.

[0019] The plate-shaped part 8 can rotate 180 degrees on the base 6 around the center line. In other words, the plate-shaped part 8 can be displaced with respect to the base 6. That is, the plate-shaped part 8 can be displaced (tipped over, swung) toward the first position 1A or the second position 2B by the user's operation. That is, the plate-shaped part 8 can be displaced from the first position 1A corresponding to the state before the displacement to the second position 2B corresponding to the state after the displacement.

[0020] The board surface is provided with a biasing portion 12 at a position overlapping the center line in a plan view. The biasing portion 12 is configured with, for example, a spring, and the plate-shaped part 8 is biased by the biasing portion 12 so as to be displaced in a direction of falling from the first position 1A side to the second position 2B side. However, the base portion 6 is provided with a locking portion 14 described later, and the plate-shaped part 8 is locked by the locking portion 14 at the first position 1A. The locking portion 14 has a protruding portion on the plate-shaped part 8 that protrudes on the opposite side to the center line side in a plan view. The plate-shaped part 8 is locked by pressing the lower surface of this protruding portion. In this way, the plate-shaped part 8 is located at the first position 1A in a state where it is biased in a direction of falling to the second position 2B side. A light-emitting portion (performance output portion) 5b, which is a portion that outputs a performance by light, is provided at the center of the circular board surface. Each of the light emitting units 5a and 5b includes, for example, an LED (Light Emitting Diode).

[0021] When the plate-shaped part 8 is located at the first position 1A, as shown in FIG. 1, a predetermined design (here, for example, the letter "A") appears on the board surface.

[0022] FIG. 2 shows the main body 1 and the disk body 2 removed from the main body 1. In FIG. 2, the front side of the main body 1 is shown, and the back side of the disk body 2 is shown. As shown in FIG. 2, the mounting part 9 is provided on the front side of the main body 1, and as described above, the mounting part 9 is rotatable clockwise or counterclockwise relative to the main body 1 in a plane consisting of the X direction and the Y direction. In other words, the rotation axis of the mounting part 9 is along the Z direction. The mounting part 9 is rotatable relative to the main body 1 within a range of 90 degrees from a predetermined position.

[0023] The back surface of the base portion 6 and the upper surface of the attachment portion 9 face each other when the disk body 2 is attached to the main body 1. A plurality of holes 11a are provided on the upper surface of the attachment portion 9. A plurality of protrusions 6a are provided on the back surface (attached portion) of the base portion 6 at positions corresponding to the plurality of holes 11a. When the disk body 2 is attached to the main body 1, the protrusions 6a fit into the holes 11a, thereby fixing the base portion 6 to the attachment portion 9. In other words, by rotating the attachment portion 9 relative to the main body 1, the disk body 2 rotates relative to the main body 1.

[0024] The mounting portion 9 has a pair of protrusions 9a on both side surfaces, and a magnet is built into the protrusions 9a. This magnet is used to detect the rotation of the disk body 2.

[0025] A power switch 26 for turning the power of the main body 1 on and off is provided on the side of the main body 1.

[0026] There are multiple types of disk bodies 2, and the disk member 2 attached to the main body 1 is replaceable with other types of disk bodies 2. Each type of disk body 2 has different identification information, and the identification information is stored in a storage unit 23, which will be described later with reference to FIG.

[0027] FIG. 3 shows the disk body 2 rotated 90 degrees clockwise from the state shown in FIG. 1 by the user's operation.

[0028] FIG. 4 shows the plate-shaped part 8 displaced from the first position 1A to the second position 2B. When the user presses the operation unit 7 with his / her finger, the plate-shaped part 8 is displaced to the second position 2B by the force applied by the biasing unit 12. In other words, the operation unit 7 is operated by the user so as to be able to release the lock of the locking unit 14. When the lock by the locking unit 14 is released, the plate-shaped part 8 rotates 180 degrees toward the second position 2B and falls down by the force applied by the biasing unit 12. When the plate-shaped part 8 is located at the second position 2B, a predetermined design (here, for example, the letter "B") appears on the board surface as shown in FIG. 4. To displace the plate-shaped part 8 from the second position 2B to the first position 1A, the user just needs to rotate the plate-shaped part 8 and lock the plate-shaped part 8 to the locking unit 14.

[0029] Fig. 5 shows antennas 1r, 2r built into the main body 1 and the disk body 2, with the main body 1 and the disk body 2 seen through. In Fig. 5, the outlines of the main body 1 and the disk body 2 are shown by two-dot chain lines, and only the antenna 1r inside the main body 1 and the antenna 2r inside the disk body 2 are shown.

[0030] 5, antenna 1r is a coil having a multiple loop structure along the outer periphery of main body 1 having a substantially circular shape in a plan view, and is connected to an electronic board (not shown) built into main body 1. Antenna 2r is a coil having a multiple loop structure along the outer periphery of disk body 2 having a substantially circular shape in a plan view, and is connected to an electronic board (not shown) built into disk body 2.

[0031] Although not shown, the main body 1 also includes a built-in audio output unit (performance output unit) that outputs performance using audio. The audio output unit is connected to an electronic board built into the main body 1.

[0032] 6 shows how the medal 13 is inserted into the performance output toy 10. The medal 13 has a thin cylindrical shape. A tag in which an antenna coil and an IC (Integrated Circuit) are integrated is embedded in the medal 13. The tag is an information storage medium that stores electronic information, and different identification information is stored in the tag for each type of medal 13.

[0033] In Fig. 6, the letter "C" is designed on the surface of the medal 13. For example, a character design may be applied to the surface of the medal 13. That is, for example, there are multiple types of medals 13 corresponding to multiple characters, and each medal 13 has different identification information.

[0034] 5 are transmitting / receiving units for communicating information between the main body 1, the disk 2, and the medal 13. The medal 13 inserted into the main body 1 is discharged from the discharge port when the user presses the push switch 4.

[0035] 7 shows a block diagram of the performance output toy of this embodiment. The main body 1 has a power supply unit 15, a control circuit 16, a storage unit 17, and a communication unit 18. The communication unit 18 has a communication control unit 19 connected to the control circuit 16, and an antenna 1r connected to the communication control unit 19. The power supply unit 15 and the storage unit 17 are each connected to the control circuit 16. The power supply unit 15 is, for example, a dry battery that is detachable from the main body 1.

[0036] The disk body 2 includes an RF (Radio Frequency) tag 20 provided on the base portion 6. The RF tag 20 includes a control circuit 22, a storage unit 23 connected to the control circuit 22, and an antenna 2r connected to the control circuit 22.

[0037] The communication unit 18 built into the main body 1 and the RF tag 20 built into the disk body 2 are not electrically connected to each other, and communication between them is performed by wireless communication using the antennas 1r and 2r. Therefore, the main body 1 and the disk body 2 can be easily attached and detached, and the disk body 2 can be rotated relative to the main body 1. In addition, the components of the RF tag 20 are driven by electromotive forces induced by electromagnetic waves including a query signal transmitted from the communication unit 18 on the main body 1 side. Therefore, the disk body 2 does not require a power supply unit and is small and lightweight, so that even young users can easily handle it. In this way, the main body 1 and the disk body 2 communicate with each other wirelessly, and the disk body does not require a power supply unit, so that the performance output toy 10 (see FIG. 1) can be easily used even by young users.

[0038] Although not shown, a press switch is provided near the locking portion 14 of the base portion 6 shown in Figs. 1 to 4, and the press switch is connected to the control circuit 22 shown in Fig. 7. Therefore, the control circuit 22 functions as a determination portion capable of determining the displacement state of the plate-shaped part 8 by detecting the pressed state of the press switch. The press switch has an on state and an off state. When the plate-shaped part 8 is locked by the locking portion 14 and located at the first position 1A, the press switch is pressed to be in the on state, and when the plate-shaped part 8 is not located at the first position 1A, the press switch is released to be in the off state. That is, the press switch is configured to be in the on state when the plate-shaped part 8 is located at the first position 1A and the plate-shaped part 8 is in the pressed state, and to be in the off state in response to the displacement of the plate-shaped part 8 from the first position 1A and the plate-shaped part 8 detecting the release of the state in which the plate-shaped part 8 pressed the press switch, the press switch is configured to be in the off state.

[0039] In other words, the control circuit 22 includes a press switch that can be switched between an on state and an off state depending on the change in the pressing state of the plate-shaped part 8, and is a judgment unit that judges whether the plate-shaped part 8 is in a state before or after displacement based on whether the press switch is in an on state or an off state.

[0040] The main body 1 also includes a built-in mechanical switch for detecting the insertion of the medal 13. The switch is connected to a control circuit 16. <Operation of the performance output toy>

[0041] Next, the operation of the effect output toy will be described with reference to the flow shown in Fig. 8. In the following description, each name explained with reference to Figs. 1 to 7 will be assigned a reference symbol. Also, the various effects explained here are, for example, sound or light, and are output by the effect output unit (the sound output unit and light-emitting unit 5a or 5b built into the main body 1).

[0042] When operating the effect output toy 10, first, the power switch 26 is turned on. At this time, the control circuit 16 may cause the effect output unit to output an effect at the time of startup.

[0043] Next, the medal 13 is inserted into the performance output toy 10 (step S1). This causes a switch provided at the medal insertion position of the main body 1 to be turned on, and the control circuit 16 can detect the insertion of the medal 13. Next, the control circuit 16 transmits two types of interrogation signals from the antenna 1r via the communication control unit 19 (step S2). That is, the control circuit 16 transmits a first interrogation signal inquiring about the identification information of the medal according to the type of the medal 13, and a second interrogation signal inquiring about the identification information of the disk body 2 according to the position of the plate-shaped part 8 provided on the disk body 2 (identification information associated with the plate-shaped part 8 being in a state before displacement or identification information associated with the plate-shaped part 8 being in a state after displacement). That is, the antenna 1r is a transmission unit that is driven by power supplied from the power supply unit 15 and transmits the first and second interrogation signals to the disk body 2 and the medal 13.

[0044] By transmitting the first interrogation signal, a signal related to the identification information held by the tag in the medal 13 is exchanged between the antenna 1r and the tag in the medal 13. This enables the control circuit 16 to determine the type of the medal 13 and to cause the effect output unit to output an effect at the time of medal insertion according to the type of the medal 13. The effect at the time of medal insertion according to the type of the medal 13 is stored in the memory unit 17.

[0045] The transmission of the second interrogation signal generates an induced electromotive force in the antenna 2r. The antenna 2r, the control circuit 22, and the storage unit 23 that constitute the RF tag 20 are each driven by the induced electromotive force.

[0046] The transmitted second interrogation signal is received by the antenna 2r. Here, the storage unit 23 stores first identification information, which is identification information associated with the plate-shaped part 8 being in a state before the displacement (located at the first position 1A), and second identification information, which is identification information associated with the plate-shaped part 8 being in a state after the displacement (not located at the first position 1A). The control circuit 22 determines that the plate-shaped part 8 is in a state before the displacement based on the press switch being in an on state, or determines that the plate-shaped part 8 is in a state after the displacement based on the press switch being in an off state.

[0047] Based on these determination results, the control circuit 22 reads out either the first identification information or the second identification information stored in the storage unit 23, and transmits it to the antenna 1r using the antenna 2r.

[0048] The antenna 1r is driven by power supplied from the power supply unit 15 and receives the identification information transmitted from the disk body 2. That is, the antenna 1r is a transmitting / receiving unit that transmits a question signal and receives the identification information. The control circuit 16 causes the performance output unit to output the first performance content stored in the storage unit 17 in association with the first identification information received by the antenna 1r. Here, the sound output unit and the light-emitting unit 5a built into the main body 1 are driven by the power supply unit 15 of the main body 1, whereas the light-emitting unit 5b is driven by the induced electromotive force. That is, when a performance is performed in which the light-emitting unit 5b is made to emit light, an induced electromotive force capable of driving the light-emitting unit 5b is generated in the antenna 2r by receiving the second question signal by the antenna 2r, and the control circuit 22 issues a control command to output a light-emitting performance based on the identification information related to the disk body 2 read from the storage unit 23. This is also true when other performances described below are output.

[0049] The first performance content is, for example, a standby performance. However, the first performance content may include a pre-transformation performance (transformation preparation performance) that is output before the standby performance is output in addition to the standby performance. Here, as an example, the pre-transformation performance is output as the first performance content (step S3), and then the standby performance is output (step S4).

[0050] As described above, when the control circuit 22 receives the first identification information, the first performance content is output, but when the plate-like part 8 is in the displaced state (not located at the first position 1A) and the control circuit 22 receives the second identification information instead of the first identification information, the first performance content is not output. In that case, for example, a performance different from the first performance content, the second performance content described below, and the third performance content is output. In other words, when the second identification information is received before the first performance content associated with the first identification information is output, the second performance content described below associated with the second identification information is not output.

[0051] The output of the first performance content in steps S3 and S4 may be performed, for example, on the condition that the user rotates the disk body 2 from the first rotation position shown in FIG. 1 to the second rotation position shown in FIG. 3 after inserting the medal in step S2. In this case, the performance output unit outputs the first performance content after the control circuit 16 determines that the disk body 2 has rotated from the first rotation position to the second rotation position. In other words, the first performance content is not output immediately after the medal insertion performance, but is output after waiting for the disk body 2 to rotate. Whether the disk body 2 has rotated from the first rotation position to the second rotation position can be determined by detecting the magnetic force of the magnet in the protrusion 9a provided in the attachment portion 9 shown in FIG. 2 using a magnetic sensor provided in the main body 1.

[0052] Next, the control circuit 16 judges whether the plate-shaped part 8 has been displaced from the first position to the second position within a predetermined time during the standby performance output (step S5). Here, the user operates (presses) the operation unit 7, and the plate-shaped part 8 is displaced from the first position 1A shown in FIG. 3 to the second position 2B shown in FIG. 4. When the plate-shaped part 8 is displaced from the first position 1A, the press switch that can change the pressing state of the plate-shaped part 8 provided on the base part 6 is released from the pressed state, and the press switch is turned off. The control circuit 22 connected to the press switch judges that the plate-shaped part 8 has been displaced in response to the operation by the user, and that the plate-shaped part 8 is in the state after the displacement. Based on this judgment, the second identification information stored in the storage unit 23 is read out and transmitted to the antenna 1r via the antenna 2r.

[0053] In step S5, after starting the standby performance output, if the control circuit 16 receives the second identification information within a predetermined time and determines based on this that the plate-shaped part 8 has been displaced from the first position to the second position, the control circuit 16 causes the performance output unit to output the second performance content (step S6). The second performance content is stored in the storage unit 17 in association with the second identification information received by the antenna 1r, and is different from the first performance content. The second performance content is, for example, a transformation performance, and the output of this performance allows the user to simulate the experience of transformation using the performance output toy.

[0054] The condition for the control circuit 16 to decide to output the second performance content is stipulated as follows: the control circuit 16 receives the second identification information within a specified time after starting the standby performance output as described above; this specified time is, for example, the time during which the standby performance is being output, that is, the time from the start to the end of the output of the standby performance.

[0055] If the control circuit 16 does not receive the second identification information within the predetermined time, that is, if the user does not operate the operation unit 7 and the plate-like part 8 does not move from the first position 1A, then after the predetermined time has elapsed and the output of the standby effect has ended, the control circuit 16 causes the effect output unit to output the third effect content (step S7). The third effect content is different from both the first effect content and the second effect content. The third effect content, for example, outputs a sound that informs the user that the transformation has failed, or a sound that prompts the user to perform the operation for transformation again.

[0056] Thereafter, the user can operate the plate-shaped part 8 to displace it from the second position 2B to the first position 1A, return the disk body 2 to the first rotation position, and then rotate the disk body 2 from the first rotation position to the second rotation position, thereby returning the operation of the performance output toy 10 to step S4. <Effects of this embodiment>

[0057] As described above, the performance output toy 10 of this embodiment realizes high entertainment value by outputting different performance contents according to the displacement state of the plate-shaped part 8 based on the displacement of the plate-shaped part 8.

[0058] That is, the content of the presentation can be changed not only by the type of medal 13 and the rotational position of the disk body 2, but also by the displacement state of at least a part of the disk body 2 (change in the shape of the disk body 2 depending on whether at least a part is displaced). In other words, the presentation output toy 10 can change the content of the presentation output from the presentation output toy 10 based on a change in the appearance of the disk body 2.

[0059] Note that the second performance content is not limited to one type, but may be prepared in a plurality of types depending on, for example, the type of medal 13 or the type of disk 2, or a combination of both. In other words, a variety of performances can be output depending on the type of medal 13 or the type of disk 2, or a combination of both.

[0060] It is also possible to arrange a press switch for determining the displacement of the plate-shaped part 8 so as to be pressed when the plate-shaped part 8 is located at the second position 2B. In this embodiment, when the plate-shaped part 8 is located at the first position 1A, the plate-shaped part 8 is locked by the locking portion 14, whereas when the plate-shaped part 8 is located at the second position 2B, the plate-shaped part 8 is not locked. Therefore, the plate-shaped part 8 is easily displaced from the second position 2B due to the movement of the main body 1, etc. Therefore, if the press switch is pressed when the plate-shaped part 8 is located at the second position 2B, the plate-shaped part 8 is easily displaced from the second position 2B, and there is a risk of malfunction occurring in determining whether or not the plate-shaped part 8 has been displaced from the first position 1A to the second position 2B.

[0061] In contrast, the push switch of this embodiment is pressed when the plate-shaped part 8 is located at the first position 1A where it is locked by the locking part 14, so that the plate-shaped part 8 will not be displaced unless the locking part 14 is released, thereby preventing erroneous operation. In addition, since the push switch is pressed when the plate-shaped part 8 is located at the first position 1A where it is locked by the locking part 14, it is possible to determine that the plate-shaped part 8 has been displaced immediately after the user operates the operation part 7 to release the locking part 14, so that the second performance content can be output quickly after the user operates the operation part 7 to release the locking part 14. In other words, the time difference between the operation and the output of the performance can be reduced, and the performance can be changed responsively based on the change in shape of the disk body 2.

[0062] Although the present invention has been specifically described above based on the embodiment, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment and can be modified in various ways without departing from the gist of the invention. [Explanation of symbols]
