[0009] Hereinafter, a toy that is one aspect of the technology of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a toy according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, as viewed from the front side, and Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the toy shown in Fig. 1, as viewed from the rear side.
[0010] Toy 1 is, for example, a transformation item used by heroes in dramas, manga, and the like when they transform. In this toy 1, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, its main body 10 has a diamond-shaped appearance when viewed from either the front or rear. When viewed from the front, a rectangular attachment member 20 is inserted into the center of main body 10 so as to be embedded within main body 10. As will be described later, this attachment member 20 is configured to be detachable from main body 10. The structure and operation of main body 10 will be described later, but broadly speaking, main body 10 includes a fixed part 13 that forms one-quarter of a diamond in appearance, including one side of the diamond, and functions as a fixed part, and three movable parts 11, 12, and 14 that are movable parts that rotate on a spherical holding part 13b (described later) of fixed part 13.
[0011] The appearance of the main body 10 is configured so that its front side and back side are distinguishable. That is, on the front side of the toy 1, a colorful and vivid pattern (color) is formed by the combination of the attachment member 20 and the patterns 11e, 12e, 13e, and 14e surrounding it, while on the back side, a relatively monotonous color is adopted compared to the front side.
[0012] The fixed part 13, the details of which will be described later, has a configuration that can recognize the attachment of the attachment member 20. Furthermore, inside the fixed part 13, a performance output unit 40 that can produce effects by sound or light emission, and a control unit 30 that controls the performance output unit 40 are provided.
[0013] FIG. 3 is a side view of the toy shown in FIG. When viewed from the side, the toy 1 is configured so that the spherical holding portion 13b with the groove 13g is exposed on the rear side, and the central portion in the vertical direction bulges forward on the front side so that the patterns 13e, 14e (11e, 12e) can be seen, as shown in Fig. 3. Also, when viewed from the side, the toy 1 is configured to be roughly diamond-shaped, although the curvature of the central portion differs between the rear side and the front side.
[0014] Fig. 4 is a perspective view showing the state of the toy 1 before the attachment member 20 is attached. Fig. 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the attachment member 20. As shown in FIG. 4, the main body 10 has a mounting recess 10d in its center. The mounting recess 10d is configured so that a mounting member 20 having a substantially regular hexahedral shape can be inserted into it. The inner side wall of the mounting recess 10d is provided with a recognition portion 18 that can recognize a concave-convex pattern 24 (see FIG. 5) provided on the side of the mounting member 20. When the mounting member 20 is mounted in the mounting recess 10d, the mounting member 20 is accommodated so as not to protrude from the spherical surface of the spherical holding portion 13b (more precisely, from an imaginary extension of the spherical surface). This is a configuration in which the mounted mounting member 20 does not obstruct the rotation of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14, as will be described later.
[0015] As shown in Fig. 5, the mounting member 20 has a control unit 25 therein, which includes a control board 25a and a power supply 25b. Also, a sound-producing element 23 such as a speaker is provided as a performance output unit. The mounting member 20 is configured so that sound can be produced independently by the sound-producing element 23. The mounting member 20 can be operated independently, for example, by pressing an operation button 20a (see Fig. 8) provided on the side surface.
[0016] When attached to the main body 10, the attachment member 20 is configured to be able to communicate with the control unit 30 (see FIG. 8) of the main body 10, for example, via infrared communication. Therefore, for example, when the attachment member 20 is attached to the main body 10, the control unit 30 can cause the sound-emitting element 23 to produce a sound. Furthermore, the concave-convex pattern 24 of the attachment member 20 is configured, for example, such that multiple convex portions 24a, 24b, 24c, and 24d are provided at different positions in a recessed region provided on the side surface.
[0017] A plurality of types of mounting members 20 are prepared, each with a different concave-convex pattern 24. This allows the concave-convex pattern 24 to be identified, and different performance outputs can be produced for each identification.
[0018] FIG. 6 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a main part of the mounting member 20 in the mounted state. A light-emitting surface 22 made of a light-transmitting material is provided on the outer surface of the mounting member 20. A light guide plate 21 is provided inside and close to this light-emitting surface 22. For example, as shown in Fig. 6, when the mounting member 20 is attached, the light guide plate 21 guides light from the main body 10 side to illuminate the light-emitting surface 22, thereby producing a light-emitting effect in the center of the main body 10.
[0019] The control unit 30 on the main body 10 side is provided on the grip portion 13a of the fixed part 13. A light-emitting element 41, such as an LED, controlled by the control unit 30 (see FIG. 8) is provided on a control board 40a arranged along the side surface of the mounting recess 10d. The light-emitting element 41 is provided so that its light-emitting surface is exposed to the inner surface of the mounting recess 10d. When the mounting member 20 is attached, the light-emitting element 41 faces a light-introducing portion of the light guide plate 21. For example, the light guide plate 21 is provided with a pair of light-guiding protrusions 21a protruding from both sides of the light-emitting element 41. Furthermore, a concave portion 21b recessed toward the light-emitting element 41 is formed on the surface facing the light-emitting element 41 between the pair of light-guiding protrusions 21a. The shape of this light-introducing portion increases the amount of light entering the light guide plate 21 from the light-emitting element 41. The sound-emitting element 42 of the main body 10 is provided, for example, on the opposite side of the control board 40a from the light-emitting element 41.
[0020] FIG. 7 is an exploded perspective view of the main parts of the toy 1. As shown in FIG. When the main body 10 is roughly disassembled into its main parts, it can be divided into a fixed part 13 and three rotatable movable parts 11, 12, and 14, as shown in Fig. 7. The fixed part 13 has a spherical holding part 13b having a substantially spherical shape that movably supports the three movable parts 11, 12, and 14, and has a gripping part 13a at one end of the spherical holding part 13b that forms one side of a rhombus and functions as a gripping part. The spherical holding part 13b has a vertical groove 13g that runs around the periphery in the vertical direction (up and down in the figure) on its outer periphery, and a horizontal groove 13g that runs around the periphery in the horizontal direction (left and right in the figure) on its outer periphery.
[0021] Each of the three movable parts 11, 12, and 14 has an inner surface 10i that is configured as part of a spherical surface corresponding to the outer peripheral surface of the spherical holding portion 13b. Each of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 has a pair of slide posts 15 that engage with the groove 13g at both ends in the longitudinal direction (FIG. 7 shows the slide posts 15 engaged with the groove 13g while separated from the movable parts). The slide posts 15 are slidably engaged within the groove 13g, and the portion that enters the groove 13g has a large-diameter semidisk-shaped hook portion 15b. The slide posts 15 are able to rotate freely vertically and horizontally along the groove 13g without coming out of the groove 13g thanks to the hook portion 15b.
[0022] Furthermore, the adjacent slide columns 15 of adjacent movable parts can be combined together and rotate as if they were a single rotation axis. That is, when the adjacent movable parts 11, 12, and 14 are held together in a state where each of them forms one side of a diamond-shaped outline, the adjacent slide columns 15 function as a rotation axis, and the slide columns 15 on the other end side are guided by the grooves 13g and rotate integrally (see FIGS. 9 and 10).
[0023] FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of a main part showing the internal structure of the toy 1. As shown in FIG. 8, the fixed part 13 is provided with a plurality of detection units 50 capable of detecting the rotational position of each of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 relative to the fixed part 13. For example, five of these detection units 50 are provided, two of which are provided on the gripping part 13a side and three of which are provided on the spherical holding part 13b side. Each detection unit 50 is configured to be biased by a spring or the like so that the detection tip portion comes into elastic contact with the sliding column 15 and operates.
[0024] The detector 50 provided on the gripping portion 13a side is arranged so that the first detector 51 faces the horizontal groove 13g on the upper end surface of the gripping portion 13a. The second detector 52 is provided so as to face the vertical groove 13g on the side end surface of the gripping portion 13a. The first and second detectors 51, 52 are provided so that their detection tips protrude from the side surfaces of both the horizontal and vertical grooves 13g (the side surfaces of the sliding column 15). As a result, the first and second detectors 51, 52 come into elastic contact with the column portion 15c of the sliding column 15 to perform detection.
[0025] The third, fourth, and fifth detection units 53, 54, and 55 provided on the spherical holding portion 13b side protrude into the groove 13g from the bottom side of the groove 13g in the radial direction of the spherical holding portion 13b. Therefore, the detection tip portions of the detection units 53, 54, and 55 operate by elastically contacting the bottom surface of the hook portion 15b of the sliding column 15.
[0026] The detection unit 50 is configured to be able to simultaneously detect the multiple pillar portions 15c and hook portions 15b of the slide pillar 15, and can configure multiple types of detection patterns. That is, the detection patterns of the detection unit 50 make it possible to detect the positions and front / back orientations of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14.
[0027] Furthermore, each of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 is configured to produce a clicking sensation when rotated. For example, a protrusion 10p that slightly protrudes from the surface of the spherical holding portion 13b is provided on the surface of the spherical holding portion 13b. This protrusion 10p is elastically biased toward the radially outward direction of the spherical holding portion 13b. Meanwhile, each of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 is provided with a fitting recess 10ia at a position corresponding to the protrusion 10p. When the inner surface 10i is in contact with the surface of the spherical holding portion 13b, the protrusion 10p is recessed from the surface of the spherical holding portion 13b. However, when each of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 is rotated to its correct position, the protrusion 10p and the fitting recess 10ia fit together. As a result, when the multiple movable parts 11, 12, and 14 rotate to form one side of the diamond-shaped outline, a clicking sensation is produced and the multiple movable parts 11, 12, and 14 are locked in place.
[0028] Here, when using the toy 1, the power switch 13s provided on the fixed part 13 is turned on, and then the attachment member 20 is attached. This allows the control unit 30 to activate the attachment sound and light emission effects on either or both the attachment member 20 side and the main body 10 side. Furthermore, the control unit 30 can detect the rotational state of each of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 using the detection unit 50, and can perform effects corresponding to the rotational state of each movable part using the effect output unit 40 on the main body 10 side.
[0029] Fig. 9 is a perspective view of the movable part when rotated vertically, and Fig. 10 is a perspective view of the movable part when rotated horizontally. To rotate the movable parts of toy 1 vertically, for example, movable parts 11 and 12 are held simultaneously in one hand and grip portion 13a is held with the other hand, as shown in Fig. 9. In this gripping state, a force is applied in the vertical rotation direction (Y direction in the figure) by twisting both hands. This operation allows movable parts 11 and 12 to rotate 180 degrees vertically around the sliding posts 15 that are in contact with each other, for example, as a first axis.
[0030] On the other hand, when rotating the movable parts horizontally, for example, as shown in Fig. 10, movable parts 11 and 14 are simultaneously held in one hand while fixed part 13 is held with the other hand. In this state, a force is applied to twist toy 1 in a horizontal rotation direction (X direction in the figure) perpendicular to the vertical rotation direction. With this operation, toy 1 rotates 180 degrees around a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, with the sliding posts 15 of movable parts 11 and 14 in contact with each other.
[0031] The transformation effect using the toy 1 will be explained below with two examples of rotation patterns. FIG. 11 is an explanatory diagram showing a first operation in a first rotation pattern, and FIG. 12 is an explanatory diagram showing a second operation in the first rotation pattern.
[0032] Fig. 11(a) shows the initial state of the toy 1 before operation. In this initial state, for example, the movable parts 11 and 14 are both facing their back surfaces (11r, 14r) forward, with the movable part 14 located on the upper right side and the movable part 11 on the lower right side, and the movable part 12 is located on the upper left side with the surface 12f facing forward. Here, the desired state of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 is a state in which all of them are facing their surfaces (11f, 12f, 13f, 14f) forward, and are lined up clockwise from the upper right position as viewed from the front in the order of movable part 11, movable part 12, fixed part 13, and movable part 14 (the state shown in Fig. 12(c)).
[0033] First, the first operation is performed. This involves holding the two upper movable parts 12, 14 in the figure together in one hand and rotating them horizontally (in the X direction in the figure or the opposite direction) (horizontal rotation shown from (a) to (b)). At this time, they are rotated to the 180-degree position as shown in FIG. 11(b), until a click sound is heard at the end of the rotation. After that, the second operation is performed. This involves changing the grip to hold the two vertical movable parts 11, 12, and rotating them vertically (in the Y direction in the figure or the opposite direction) as shown in FIG. 12 (vertical rotation shown from (b) to (c) in FIG. 12) until a click sound is heard.
[0034] In this case, two operations, horizontal rotation and vertical rotation, result in the transformation state shown in Figure 12(c). That is, the images 11e, 12e, 13e, and 14e of each part are all facing forward, and the parts are arranged clockwise from the upper right when viewed from the front, in the order of movable part 11, movable part 12, fixed part 13, and movable part 14, which satisfies the predetermined conditions. When this state is reached, a sound and light are emitted to produce a performance output. Furthermore, even during the rotation operation, a performance of the transformation process is performed to show that the operation is in progress.
[0035] Fig. 13 is an explanatory diagram showing a first operation in the second rotation pattern, Fig. 14 is an explanatory diagram showing a second operation in the second rotation pattern, Fig. 15 is an explanatory diagram showing a third operation in the second rotation pattern, and Fig. 16 is an explanatory diagram showing a fourth operation in the second rotation pattern.
[0036] FIG. 13(a) shows the same state as the initial state shown in FIG. 11. In the second rotation pattern, as shown in FIG. 13, first, as a first operation, the vertically aligned movable parts 14 and 11 are held together and rotated vertically for the first time (in the Y1 direction in the figure or the opposite direction). This rotates them to a 180-degree position, as shown in FIG. 13(b), until a clicking sound is heard. In this state, all parts are positioned with their surfaces (11f, 12f, 13f, 14f) facing forward, and their patterns (11e, 12e, 13e, 14e) facing forward. However, the arrangement order of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 is not a predetermined order.
[0037] In the illustrated designs, the designs (11e, 12e, 13e, 14e) do not distinguish the order of the parts, but the designs may be continuous only when the parts are arranged in a predetermined order. In this case, in the state shown in Figure 13(b), the order of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 is not in a predetermined position, so the designs themselves are not continuous and can be seen as such from the outside.
[0038] As a second operation, in the state shown in Fig. 14(b), the two movable parts 11 and 12 arranged side by side are held together as a unit. After that, the first horizontal rotation (in the X1 direction in the figure or the opposite direction) is performed until a clicking sound is heard, resulting in the state shown in Fig. 14(c).
[0039] Then, as a third operation, the movable parts 12 and 14 aligned vertically in the state shown in (c) of Figure 15 are held together and rotated vertically (in the Y2 direction) a second time to reach the state shown in (d) of Figure 15.
[0040] Furthermore, as a fourth operation, the movable parts 11 and 14 arranged side by side are held together in the state shown in Figure 16(d) and a second horizontal rotation (in the X2 direction) is performed. This results in the transformed state as shown in Figure 16(e). In this way, in the second rotation pattern, the toy 1 can finally be transformed by two rotations, both vertically and horizontally.
[0041] Here, when the transformation state is reached, the same performance output as in the first rotation pattern is produced. However, during the rotation operation, a different performance is produced from that in the first rotation pattern. This is because the positions of the movable parts 11, 12, 14 in the first rotation pattern and the positions of the movable parts 11, 12, 14 in the second rotation pattern are different, and this is detected by the detection unit 50, which is controlled to change the performance output.
[0042] As described above, the toy 1 of this embodiment is configured so that the separate attachment member 20 can be attached and detached to the main body 10, allowing the player to enjoy attaching the attachment member 20 to the main body 10. In particular, when multiple attachment members 20 are provided, different effects are activated depending on the type, allowing the player to enjoy a wide variety of effects for each attachment member 20 corresponding to a hero.
[0043] Furthermore, the toy 1 of this embodiment has multiple rotatable movable parts 11, 12, 14, so that when these movable parts 11, 12, 14 are rotated to a predetermined position relative to the fixed part 13, specific light and sound effects are produced, allowing the user to enjoy rotating the movable parts 11, 12, 14.
[0044] In the toy 1 of this embodiment, the type of attachment member 20 is recognized by the uneven pattern 24 provided on the side of the attachment member 20, so that it can be recognized at the same time as the attachment member 20 is attached, allowing for quick presentation, and also a simple recognition structure allows for the preparation of many types of attachment members 20.
[0045] In the toy 1 of this embodiment, a predetermined effect is performed when at least the patterns 11e, 12e, 13e, and 14e on specific faces (front faces) of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 and the fixed part 13 are aligned, so that the player can enjoy the relationship between the matching patterns and the effect. In particular, in the character transformation patterns, the transformation possible states can be effectively represented by multiple events (patterns, sounds, and lights).
[0046] In the toy 1 of this embodiment, adjacent movable parts can be rotated together in either a vertical (up-down) direction or a horizontal (left-right) direction perpendicular to the vertical direction, so that in the rotation operation, players can enjoy twisting one hand holding the fixed part 13 and the other hand holding the movable part. In particular, the rotation operation state of the movable parts is output in a dramatic manner, so players can enjoy the process up to the final dramatic state (character transformation state).
[0047] In the toy 1 of this embodiment, the fixed part 13 has a spherical holding part 13b and can be configured to be larger than the movable parts 11, 12, and 14, so that it is easy to provide the performance output part 40, the recognition part 18, the control part 30, etc. Also, the fixed part 13 is provided with a detection part 50 that detects the rotation of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14, so that the positions of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 can be accurately determined with respect to the fixed part 13 as a reference.
[0048] In the toy 1 of this embodiment, the attachment member 20 is also provided with a configuration that allows it to output effects, so that it can be enjoyed as a standalone item. Furthermore, since the attachment member 20 is provided with a configuration that allows it to communicate with the main body unit 10, when the attachment member 20 is attached, the control unit 30 on the main body unit 10 can control the attachment member 20 to output effects.
[0049] In the toy 1 of this embodiment, the attachment member 20 is configured to receive light from the main body 10 via the light guide plate 21 and emit light, thereby eliminating the need for a light source and enabling miniaturization and power saving.
[0050] In the toy 1 of this embodiment, the main body 10 has a diamond-shaped shape when viewed from either the front, back, or side in a specific state, creating a stylish appearance. Furthermore, each of the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 is configured to have a substantially identical shape so that their outlines form one side, so that the shapes of intermediate states other than the final form (transformed state) also have the same diamond shape and multiple rotation patterns. As a result, the user can enjoy the challenge of aligning the movable parts 11, 12, and 14.
[0051] In the toy 1 of this embodiment, the movable parts 11, 12, and 14 are configured to be locked in a click state at one end when one side of the diamond-shaped outline is formed by rotational movement, thereby enabling accurate positioning while also creating a satisfying rotational operation feel.
[0052] While one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention can be modified as appropriate within the scope of its technical concept. For example, in the above embodiment, the concave-convex pattern 24 is used as a method for detecting the type of attachment member 20, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration and may also be configured to use, for example, infrared communication or NFC.
