[Figure 9] This is a perspective view showing a second embodiment in which the first display unit, the second display unit, and the third display unit are mounted on the support unit. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0009] The following describes an aspect of the present invention, specifically a form of a decorative toy, with reference to the figures. Figure 1 is a plan view of the first form of the ornamental toy 1.

[0010] In its first form 1F, the ornamental toy 1 is configured in a flat shape as shown in Figure 1, making it easy to handle and not bulky when carried. For example, the ornamental toy 1 has three display units 10: a first display unit 11 that displays character C, a second display unit 12 that displays clothing D (dress), and a third display unit 13 that displays background BD. This can be changed to a second form 2F (see Figure 4) in which these display units 10 are supported and displayed in a three-dimensional manner by a plate-shaped support unit 20, as will be described later. Furthermore, at least a portion of the three display units 10 (in this embodiment, the first display unit 11) is housed together with the support unit 20 within a frame unit 40, forming a single sheet structure.

[0011] Figure 2 is an enlarged perspective view showing the support unit 20 and the first display unit 11 housed in the frame unit 40 in Figure 1. The support section 20 and the first display section 11 housed in the frame section 40 are configured to be separable from the frame section 40 by slits 40s. For example, as shown in the blowout section of Figure 2, multiple connecting sections 40j are provided at appropriate intervals to fill the slits 40s, and the support section 20 and the first display section 11 can be removed from the frame section 40 by cutting these connecting sections 40j. The first display section 11 removed from the frame section 40 is used in its flat form. On the other hand, the support section 20 is used in a three-dimensional shape after being bent at the bending section 20b after being separated from the frame section 40.

[0012] Figure 3 is a perspective view of the support portion 20 in a bent state. The support portion 20, when removed from the frame portion 40, is a plate-shaped object. However, by bending it at approximately right angles at two bending portions 20b, as shown in Figure 3, it consists of a first side portion 21 on the left, a second side portion 22 in the center, and a third side portion 23 on the right when viewed from the front, and is roughly U-shaped when viewed from above. Furthermore, the upper edges 20u of the first side portion 21 and the third side portion 23 are provided with a first support portion 201 with a first notch at a first position closer to the second side portion 22, and a second support portion 202 with a second notch at a second position further back than the first support portion 201.

[0013] The first support portion 201 is configured to have a depth of about half of the height of the support portion 20 as a linear cut in the vertical direction (the width (height) direction of the support portion 20). Also, in the drawing, the first support portion 201 is formed away from the bending portion 20b, but it may be formed at a position overlapping the bending portion 20b. Further, the second support portion 202 is composed of a linear vertical cut 202a in the vertical direction with a depth of about half of the height of the support portion 20 and a horizontal cut 202b extending to the tip portion 20t side of the support portion 20 continuously from the lower end portion of the vertical cut 202a.

[0014] Regarding the cut width (d1) of the first support portion 201 and the cut width (d2) of the second support portion 202, they are set to dimensions smaller than the thickness of the display portion 10, and are configured to be able to sandwich the display portion 10.

[0015] For example, the support portion 20 is provided with decorations and colors related to the character C. Also, on the second side portion 22, character information 35 displaying the name, title, etc. of the character C is provided on the front surface side. Further, the second side portion 22 is configured as a curved surface that bulges on the character information 35 side in a state as shown in FIG. 3 where the display portion 10 can be supported.

[0016] FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a second form 2F when the first display portion 11 and the support portion 20 are combined. When attaching the first display portion 11 to the support portion 20, as shown in FIG. 4, a pair of rectangular notch portions 10k formed at the lower end portion 10d of the first display portion 11 are inserted into the first support portion 201 or the second support portion 202. In this state, the lower end edge 20d of the support portion 20 is supported by the placement surface 60, and the lower end portion 10d of the first display portion 11 is also supported by the placement surface 60, and the second form 2F is maintained. Here, in the drawing, the first display portion 11 is combined to be supported by the second support portion 202, but a configuration in which it is inserted into the first support portion 201 may also be used.

[0017] FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing how the first display unit 11, the second display unit 12, and the support unit 20 are combined. FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing the second form 2F in which the first display unit 11 and the second display unit 12 are attached to the support unit 20.

[0018] When combining the first display unit 11, the second display unit 12, and the support unit 20, for example, as shown in FIG. 5, they are overlapped so that the second display unit 12 is positioned in front of the first display unit 11, and then inserted into the second support unit 202. The second display unit 12 depicts a costume D (dress) sized to the character C. That is, by overlapping the second display unit 12 on top (in front) of the first display unit 11, as shown in FIG. 6, the torso Cb of the character C is covered, and the head Ch and the arm portions are not covered. In the second display unit 12, the pattern portion of the clothing is configured to be opaque with color, while the other portions are configured to be transparent.

[0019] In this way, by displaying the second display unit 12 so as to overlap the first display unit 11, it can be transformed from a sporty style like tennis wear to a dressy style.

[0020] FIG. 7 is a plan view of the state of the second form 2F shown in FIG. 6 as viewed from above. In the second form 2F shown in FIG. 6, the first display unit 11 and the second display unit 12 are held by the cut of the second support unit 202 as shown in FIG. 7. More specifically, the first display unit 11 and the second display unit 12 are held by being pushed forward (in the direction of arrow F1 in the figure) by the tip edge 202t in a state where the rear piece 202c of the cut of the second support unit 202 is elastically deformed. That is, the first display unit 11 and the second display unit 12 are sandwiched by the cut of the second support unit 202.

[0021] Furthermore, the first side portion 21 and the third side portion 23 are bent at the bent portion 20b. In this bending process, the first side portion 21 and the third side portion 23 may be configured to be substantially parallel when supporting the display portion 10. However, depending on the bending method, both ends 20t of the first side portion 21 and the third side portion 23 can be bent in such a way that they retain a force that biases them toward each other in the direction of arrow F2. In this case, the force that causes the first side portion 21 and the third side portion 23 to spread apart can apply tension that pulls the first display portion 11 and the second display portion 12 outward. As a result, the connection between the two display portions 11 and 12 and the support portion 20 can be made stronger.

[0022] Figure 8 is a perspective view showing how the first display unit 11, the second display unit 12, and the third display unit 13 are combined with the support unit 20. Figure 9 is a perspective view showing the second form 2F in which the first display unit 11, the second display unit 12, and the third display unit 13 are mounted on the support unit 20.

[0023] When attaching the three display units 10 to the support unit 20, as shown in Figure 8, the first display unit 11 and the second display unit 12 are overlapped and inserted into the first support unit 201, and the third display unit 13 is inserted into the second support unit 202 behind them. By placing the character C in front of the display unit 10 in this way, and providing the third display unit 13 as the background behind it with a gap in between, it is possible to create the effect that character C is attending a ball in a dress.

[0024] In particular, the upper end Ct of the head Ch, which is the height of the character C, is higher than the upper end 13u (height of the background) of the third display unit 13. This configuration allows the character C to be enlarged and emphasized through perspective. Furthermore, the perspective between the character C and the background makes it possible to create the illusion of a wide, deep space.

[0025] As described above, in this embodiment of the ornamental toy 1, the support portion 20 that supports the display portion 10 is configured to support multiple display portions 10 at a first support portion 201 at a first position on the front side and a second support portion 202 at a second position on the rear side, so that the display portions 10 can be displayed overlapping front and back, and a three-dimensional display can be viewed by displaying them at a distance.

[0026] In this embodiment of the ornamental toy 1, multiple display units 10 are configured to be held in a stacked state, enabling the superimposition of images on the display units 10. Furthermore, by changing the display unit 10, it becomes possible to view different images.

[0027] In the ornamental toy 1 of this embodiment, the first support part 201 and the second support part 202 are capable of supporting the display part 10 in a clamping state, so that the overlapping display parts 10 can be displayed in close contact, and multiple images (drawings) can be displayed as if they were a single image.

[0028] In the ornamental toy 1 of this embodiment, the support portion 20 (first support portion 201, second support portion 202) is made of notches, so the structure of the support portion 20 is simple and can hold and grip the flat display portion 10.

[0029] Furthermore, since the second support portion 202 includes a bent notch whose notch direction intersects with the insertion direction of the display portion 10, the second support portion 202 can hold the display portion 10 with elastic force. This ensures that multiple display portions 10 can be held securely.

[0030] In the ornamental toy 1 of this embodiment, the support part 20 is configured to be foldable, so that it can be placed on a mounting surface in a stable state that can hold the display part 10 when folded. In addition, in the state before folding, it can be made into a flat plate, which improves handling.

[0031] In the ornamental toy 1 of this embodiment, the second side portion 22 that constitutes the front side of the support portion 20 can be configured to form a curved surface when supporting the display portion 10, so that the image drawn on the second side portion 22 can be given a sense of depth. In addition, the second side portion 22 can be made easily visible from directions other than directly in front.

[0032] In the ornamental toy 1 of this embodiment, the second display unit 12 is configured to cover the torso Cb of character C, so that it can cover the front side of the first display unit 11 as the clothing of character C, and multiple outfit changes are possible.

[0033] Furthermore, in the ornamental toy 1 of this embodiment, a background section designated as the third display section 13 is provided at the second support section 202, which is located at a predetermined distance behind the first support section 201. This makes it possible to create a display with a sense of depth and three-dimensionality between the character C supported by the first support section 201 and the background section.

[0034] In the ornamental toy 1 of this embodiment, the head Ch of character C is configured to be higher than the upper end of the third display unit 13 supported by the second support unit 202, so that character C is positioned higher than the background, thereby more effectively creating a sense of perspective with the background.

[0035] In this embodiment of the ornamental toy 1, the ornamental toy 1 is configured to take on a first form having a flat shape and a second form having a three-dimensional shape, which makes it easy to handle.

[0036] In this embodiment of the ornamental toy 1, the ornamental toy 1 is configured to house and hold the support part 20 and the display part 10 inside the frame part 40 in the first embodiment, so that it can be handled as a single sheet-like object. Furthermore, the ornamental toy 1 can be protected by the frame part 40.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have 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 second display section 12 is a picture of the clothing of character C, but the invention is not limited to this configuration, and for example, a hat, flowers, or scenery may be drawn around character C.

[0038] Furthermore, although the support portion is configured with two parts in the above embodiment, it may be configured with three or more parts.
