This toy displaying an item has claws that hold prizes, and the claws hold the item in a holder, allowing the item to be displayed. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0003] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3246609 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] The main purpose of this invention is to provide a crane game toy that can be easily played at home by imitating a real crane game machine, allowing the support part to be manually moved, the claws to be opened and closed, an item to be held by the claws and dropped into the outlet, and the item to be taken out from the main body cover. [Means for solving the problem]
[0005] The present invention can be expressed as the invention described in the following items.
[0006] (Item 1) This crane game toy includes a main body cover, claws that can hold an item inside the main body cover, and a support part that moves the claws. The main body cover is transparent so that the item held by the claws can be observed from the outside. The support part is attached to the inside of a lid, and the lid has a dial that moves the support part horizontally and a button that moves the support part up and down. The dial moves the support part to the position of an item inside the main body cover, and pressing the button causes the support part to descend and the claws to open and close. Releasing the button causes the support part to rise, allowing the claws to grip the item inside, thereby holding the item. The bottom of the main body cover has an opening through which the item can be removed. The item is held by the claws, and by turning the dial to move the support part to the opening, and pressing the button causes the support part to descend, the claws to open, and the item to drop into the opening, allowing the item to be removed from the opening.
[0007] (Item 2) The cover has a support section inside, and springs attached to the outside and inside of the support section. When the button protruding from the cover is pressed, the support section descends due to the action of the spring, and the two claws on the left and right open and close. When the button is released, the support section rises, and the item can be clamped by the claws.
[0008] (Item 3) The crane game toy described in item 1 is characterized in that the bottom of the main body cover has a slope and a recess on the surface on which the items are placed, and is structured so that the items gather in the recess.
[0009] (Item 4) The bottom of the main body cover has an article removal opening, and the article held by the claws can be moved to the removal opening by the support part and dropped therein, thereby removing the article from inside the main body.
[0010] (Item 5) The crane game toy according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the main body cover has a storage space inside, is transparent so that the contents can be seen, and has a lid body attached to the main body cover so that the top can be opened and closed, and the support part is attached inside the lid body. [Effects of the Invention]
[0011] According to this invention, it is possible to easily play a crane game at home and pick up items. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0015] (Main unit cover) The main body cover 1 has an internal storage space and is composed of a detachable lid body 3 and a bottom part 2 with an access opening.
[0016] (lid) The cover 3 is provided with a support portion 6, a dial 4 for operating the support portion 6 horizontally, and a button 5 for operating the support portion 6 up and down.
[0017] (Support part) The support part 6 is moved horizontally by a dial 4 attached to the cover 3, and is lowered by pressing a button 5. The claws 7 are opened and closed by the action of a spring 11, and are raised by releasing them.
[0018] (fixed block) The fixed block 9 is structured to prevent the support portion 6 from tilting when the support portion 6 is moved in the horizontal direction.
[0019] (nail) Claw 7 opens and closes when support part 6 is lowered by pressing button 5, and when button 5 is released, support part 6 rises. Claw 7 can be opened and closed by the action of spring 11 attached inside support part 6.
[0020] (Dial) By turning the dial 4 left or right, the gear 10 in FIG. 2 turns, and the support part 6 can be moved in the horizontal direction.
[0021] (bottom) The bottom 2 has a slope and a depression directly below the support portion 6, and is structured so that articles gather directly below the support portion 6. Also, an outlet 8 is provided so that articles can be taken out.
[0022] (Exit port) The item is held by the claws 7, and moved to the outlet 8 by the dial 4. When the button 5 is pressed, the support part 6 descends, the claws 7 open, and the item falls in and can be taken out. The outlet 8 is inclined, making it easy to take out the item.
[0023] (How to use the crane game) The crane game toy according to this embodiment will be described below.
[0024] In the initial state, no article is held by the claws 7, and the support portion 6 is in an elevated position.
[0025] In the initial state, there is no item inside, so the lid is removed from the main cover and the capsules included inside the main body or gum sold separately are placed inside the main cover.
[0026] The dial 4 is turned to move the support part 6 to the position of the article, the button 5 is pressed to lower the support part 6 and pinch the article with the claws 7, and the button 5 is released to raise the support part 6.
[0027] The dial 4 is turned to move the support part 6 above the outlet 8, and the button 5 is pressed to lower the support part 6 and open the claws 7, so that the article is dropped into the outlet 8 and the article is taken out from the outlet 8. [Explanation of symbols]
