Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a doll toy that can change its posture from an upright position to a kneeling or bent position. [Background technology]
[0002] The following prior art has been disclosed as a doll toy that attracts users with its movement by changing the doll's posture from an upright position to a bent position by rotating the knee joints and lowering the torso. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 7632923
[0004] This technology is a doll toy that supports a main body 2 on two legs 30 attached to a base 3, and is composed of a lower leg (lower leg member) 33 whose lower end is rotatably supported in a front shaft hole, and an upper leg (upper leg member) 31 that can stand upright above the lower leg member 33.
[0005] It is also disclosed that by providing a first retaining hole 35d and a second retaining hole 35e in an interlocking member 35 that flexibly connects the upper leg portion 31 and the lower leg portion 33, the balance of support of the main body portion 2 by the first retaining hole 35d and the second retaining hole 35e is disrupted, thereby bending the two legs 30 of the doll toy and changing the posture of the doll toy from an upright state to a bent and stretched state.
[0006] In the above-mentioned conventional technology, the support and release of the main body 2 by each leg 30 is achieved by balancing two joints, the first holding hole 35d and the second holding hole 35e, and when changing posture from an upright state to a bent state, the vertical descent of the upper body (trunk) 20 due to its own weight is achieved by balancing the two joints. In addition, such interlocking member 35 also contributes to the vertical descent of the main body 2 without tipping it forward or backward.
[0007] However, in this prior art, a complex structure centered around the interlocking member 35 is required to balance the joint, resulting in a problem of a large number of parts.
[0008] In particular, if such a movable doll toy were to be offered as a low-priced capsule toy, there would be a problem in that it would be difficult to realize due to the cost, due to the large number of parts and labor costs. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0009] Therefore, the object of the present invention is to propose a doll toy that can change its posture from an upright position to a kneeling or bent position with a simpler structure, with fewer parts and lower manufacturing costs. [Means for solving the problem]
[0010] In order to achieve the above object, a first configuration of the doll toy of the present invention is a doll toy having a body, a base, a pair of legs arranged between the body and the base, and a guide section erected on the base to guide the body in the up and down direction, wherein one of the pair of legs has an upper leg connected to the body via a first joint and a lower leg connected to the upper leg via a second joint and to the base via a third joint, and the other of the pair of legs has an upper leg connected to the body via a first joint and a lower leg connected to the upper leg via a second joint, The second joint of one leg moves forward and bends, and the lower end of the lower leg of the other leg moves backward on the base and bends, so that the torso is guided by the guide section and approaches the base, and the doll toy changes its posture from an upright position to a kneeling position.
[0011] In addition, a second configuration of the doll toy of the present invention is a doll toy having a torso, a base, a pair of legs arranged between the torso and the base, and a guide part erected on the base to guide the torso in the up and down direction, wherein one leg and the other leg of the pair of legs each have an upper leg connected to the torso via a first joint, and a lower leg connected to the upper leg via a second joint and to the base via a third joint, and when the torso is brought close to the base, the second joints of the one leg and the other leg move forward and bend, and the torso is guided by the guide part to come close to the base, and the doll toy changes its posture from an upright state to a bent and stretched state. [Effects of the Invention]
[0012] According to this invention, the guide part installed on the base can control the posture change of the doll toy so that the descending direction is vertical without tilting the torso part, and by providing the guide part separately from the legs, the legs can have a simple structure, reducing the number of parts and keeping manufacturing costs low.
[0013] In particular, in the first configuration, the movement of the other leg is made different from the movement of the other leg, causing the doll toy to change its posture to a kneeling position, which gives a sense of surprise to the viewer. In the second configuration, the left and right legs are made to move in the same way, causing the doll toy to change its posture to a bending and stretching position, which gives a more comical impression.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0015] (First embodiment) The structure of a toy doll A according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 3. The toy doll A is a frog-themed toy doll that can change its shape from an upright position to a kneeling position.
[0016] 1(a), (b) and 3(a) show a toy doll A in an upright position. The toy doll A has a body 1, two legs 2 (2A, 2B) that support it, and a base 3 on which the legs 2A, 2B are placed. The body 1 has a head 4 at its top and arms 5 that wrap around from both sides and join together at the front.
[0017] Of the legs 2, the left leg 2A is composed of an upper leg 21A, a lower leg 22A, and a foot 23A. The upper part of the upper leg 21A is rotatably connected to the crotch 10 of the torso 1 through a rotation axis 2a, which is a first joint, the lower part of the upper end 21A is rotatably connected to the upper part of the lower leg 22A through a rotation axis 2b, which is a second joint, and the lower part of the lower leg 22A is rotatably connected to the upper part of the foot 23A through a rotation axis 2c, which is a third joint.
[0018] A protrusion 21x is formed on the front upper end of upper leg 21A to prevent upper leg 21A from rotating forward, allowing it to bend in an L-shape.
[0019] As described above, when the transformation occurs, the left leg 2A bends in an L-shape and the right leg 2B bends in a V-shape, so that the doll toy A as a whole transforms into a kneeling position.
[0020] The foot 23A of the left leg 2A has a sliding protrusion 23a at its bottom, which is fitted into a guide groove 31a formed on the top surface of the base 31 of the pedestal 3. A switch 32 is exposed on the back surface of the base 31, and an activation device 100 for changing the posture of the doll toy A is built into the base 31 (see Figures 4(b) and 5(b)).
[0021] Of the legs 2, the right leg 2B, like the left leg 2A, is composed of an upper leg 21B as the other upper leg, a lower leg 22B as the other lower leg, and a foot 23B as the other foot. The upper part of the upper leg 21B is rotatably connected to the crotch 10 of the torso 1 at a rotation axis 2a as another first joint, the lower part of the upper end 21B is rotatably connected to the upper part of the lower leg 22A at a rotation axis 2b as another second joint, and the lower part of the lower leg 22B is rotatably connected to the upper part of the foot 23B at a rotation axis 2c as another third joint, also like the left leg 2A.
[0022] On the other hand, unlike the left leg 2A, the right leg 2B does not have a protrusion 21x formed at the front upper end of the upper thigh 21B, allowing the upper thigh 21B to rotate forward, and the foot 23B is fixed to the base 31 of the pedestal 3.
[0023] Furthermore, knee joint 22x, where lower leg 22B is connected to upper leg 21B via rotation axis 2b, is a long hole that is vertically long, and when a load including torso 1 is applied to this part, rotation axis 2b is positioned above knee joint 22x, restricting rotation and creating a locked state that maintains the upright position. Therefore, the upright position is maintained unless a force is applied that moves rotation axis 2b downward to knee joint 22x.
[0024] The head 4 has an upper jaw 41 with frog eyes attached so that it can rotate freely relative to a lower jaw 42 placed on the body 1 via a jaw hinge 4a (see Figure 4 described later) on the back side of the head, and a cylindrical mouth member 43 is arranged inside the upper jaw 41.
[0025] The arm 5 is made up of a left arm 51 and a right arm 52 each rotatably attached to the side of the body 1, and these left arm 51 and right arm 52 are interlocked on the front side of the body 1 to form a fist 53 having a heart-shaped ornament.
[0026] In addition, a guide pole 6 serving as a guide is arranged between both legs 2A and 2B, and the lower end 6b of the guide pole 6 is connected to the base 31 of the pedestal 3 via a pivot shaft 2c. The guide pole 6 passes through the body 1, and its upper end 6a is positioned above the body 1 (see Figure 4 described below).
[0027] Next, Figs. 2(a), (b) and 3(b) show the doll toy A in a kneeling position.
[0028] In this kneeling position, the foot 23A of the left leg 2A slides backward and moves outward from the base 3, causing the lower leg 22A to fall sideways onto the base 31, and the upper leg 21A to descend vertically so that the lower end of the upper leg 21A, which becomes the knee, is supported by the base 3.
[0029] Furthermore, the foot 23B of the right leg 2B does not move relative to the base 3, but the upper thigh 21B rotates forward relative to the crotch 10 of the torso 1, and the lower thigh 22B rotates forward relative to the foot 23B, so that the connecting portion between the lower part of the upper thigh 21B and the upper part of the lower thigh 22B, which forms the knee of the right leg 2B, protrudes forward and bends.
[0030] As described above, the doll toy A can be transformed into a kneeling position by the upper thigh 21A of the left leg 2A moving so that the knee drops downward, and the upper thigh 21A of the right leg 2B bending so that the knee moves forward.
[0031] The operation of the toy doll A of this embodiment will be explained using Figures 4(a) and (b) and Figures 5(a) and (b). Figures 4(a) and (b) show the toy doll A in an upright position, and Figures 5(a) and (b) show the toy doll A in a kneeling position. Figures 4(a) and 5(a) are side views of the toy doll A showing its internal structure, and Figures 4(b) and 5(b) are bottom views showing the maneuvering device 100 inside the base 3 of the toy doll A.
[0032] As shown in Figure 4(a), the guide pole 6 between the two legs 2A and 2B has its lower end 6b pivoted to the base 31 of the pedestal 3 using a pin 6c, its upper part inserted inside the body 1, and its upper end 6a located near the attachment point of the arm 5.
[0033] The guide pole 6 has a sliding flange 6d formed on its side at its midpoint, which comes into contact with the guided surface 11 inside the body 1, and its lower end has a braking flange 6e with a larger diameter, which acts as a braking part. Both the sliding flange 6d and the braking flange 6e are housed inside the body 1 and are not exposed to the outside.
[0034] As shown in Figure 4(b), a maneuvering device 100 for changing the posture of the doll toy A is built into the base 31 of the pedestal part 3. The maneuvering device 100 is composed of a fan-shaped plate 101 rotatably attached to the base 31 by a rotation pin 101a, and a leaf spring 102 which is also fixed to the base 31 and fitted into a recess 101b of the fan-shaped plate 101.
[0035] An operating protrusion 101c formed on the sector plate 101 at a position away from the rotation pin 101a is exposed from a guide groove 31a formed in the base 31 so as to be adjacent to the sliding protrusion 23a on the underside of the foot 23A of the left leg 2A. A part of the sector plate 101 is exposed to the outside from the notch 31a of the base 31, and a switch 32 having a press lever shape is formed thereon.
[0036] 5(b), when the user presses switch 32, sector plate 101 rotates about rotation pin 101a against the bias of leaf spring 102. Then, actuation protrusion 101c in guide groove 31a presses sliding protrusion 23a of left leg 2A, which is also in guide groove 31a, and pushes it outward from base 31 along groove 23a.
[0037] The knee joint 22x at the lower end of the upper thigh 21A of the left leg 2A has a locking mechanism for maintaining the doll toy A in an upright state. The locking mechanism is in a locked state in which the upper thigh 21A abuts on the upper end of the lower thigh 22A in a planar manner, and the weight of the torso 1 is applied to this part, maintaining the upright state. However, there is no such structure between the upper thigh 21B and the lower thigh 22B of the right leg 2B, and the doll toy A is free to rotate.
[0038] As described above, by sliding the foot 23A of the left leg 2A backward, the locked state of the knee joint 22x is released, and the upper thigh 21A descends vertically without rotating forward due to the action of the protrusion 21x, deforming into an L-shape, and the upper thigh 21B and the lower thigh 22B of the right leg 2B, which is free to rotate, bend into a dogleg shape so that the second joint 2b of the lower thigh 22 protrudes forward.These movements of the left and right legs 2A, 2B cause the doll toy A to change its posture from an upright position to a kneeling position.
[0039] As described above, the left and right legs 2A, 2B are bent, so that the torso 1 descends downward and approaches the base 3. Using Figure 5(a), the function of the guide pole 6 on the torso 1 as the posture of the doll toy A changes from an upright position to a kneeling position will be described.
[0040] When the body part 1 descends, the guide pole 6 pivotally supported on the base part 3 has its sliding surface 6d come into contact with the guided surface 11 formed inside the body part 1, thereby controlling the body part 1 to descend approximately vertically.
[0041] Then, when the body part 1 descends further, the upper end part 6a of the guide pole 6 penetrates the inside of the mouth member 43 and pushes up the upper jaw part 41 of the head part 4, which is attached to the lower jaw part 42 by the jaw hinge 4a, causing the doll toy A to open its mouth.
[0042] At this time, the braking flange 6e abuts against the lower end 43a, which is the braked part of the mouth member 43, and controls the body part 1 so that it does not descend more than necessary, and the guide pole 6 supports the body part 1 via this braking flange 6e, and controls the descending height of the body part 1 to a predetermined height.
[0043] Furthermore, the doll toy A has a structure in which the arms 5 are rotated upward as the body 1 descends due to a link function between the guide pole 6 (not shown) and the arms 5.
[0044] As described above, the user of the doll toy A can change the torso 1 from an upright position supported by the left and right legs 2A, 2B to a kneeling position in which the left and right legs 2A, 2B are bent in different shapes simply by pressing the switch 32 on the base 3, and the user can enjoy this transformation.
[0045] In particular, the doll toy A of this embodiment can change its head 4 and arms 5 in addition to changing its legs 2A, 2B, allowing for even more enjoyable changes.
[0046] (Second embodiment) Next, a toy doll B according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 6(a), (b) and 7(a), (b). Like the first embodiment, the toy doll B is a frog-themed toy doll, but it is a movable toy that can change its shape from an upright position to a bent or stretched position. In the following, in other embodiments, the same structures as those in the first embodiment will be assigned the same reference numerals and will not be described again.
[0047] 6(a) shows a perspective view of the upright doll toy B. The doll toy B has a body 1, two legs 7 (7A, 7B) that support the body 1, and a base 8 on which the legs 7A, 7B are placed. The body 1 has a head 4 on its top and arms 9, 9 that are independently attached to the left and right sides.
[0048] The left and right legs 7A, 7B have the same structure. Each leg 7A, 7B is composed of upper thighs 71A, 71B, lower thighs 72A, 72B, and feet 73A, 73B. The upper parts of the upper thighs 71A, 71B are rotatably connected to the crotch 10 of the torso 1 via a rotation axis 7a serving as a first joint. The lower parts of the upper ends 71A, 71B are rotatably connected to the upper parts of the lower thighs 72A, 72B via a rotation axis 7b serving as a second joint. The lower parts of the lower thighs 72A, 72B are rotatably connected to the upper parts of the feet 73A, 73B via a rotation axis 7c serving as a third joint.
[0049] Furthermore, knee joints 72x, at which lower leg portions 72A, 72B are connected to upper leg portions 71A, 71B via rotation shafts 7b, are elongated holes extending in the vertical direction. A locking mechanism is formed in particular in knee joint 72x of left leg 7A. This locking mechanism has a notch at the lower end of upper leg portion 71A that engages with the upper end of lower leg portion 72A. In combination with knee joint 72x, which is an elongated hole that allows movement of rotation shaft 2b, the weight of torso 1 is applied to this portion, engaging the two and maintaining an upright position. In other words, the rotation shaft 7b is positioned above knee joint 72x, restricting rotation and creating a locked state that maintains the upright position. The knee joint of right leg 7B does not have a locking mechanism and is free to rotate.
[0050] 6(b) is a perspective view of the doll toy B after it has changed from an upright position to a bent and stretched position. As described above, the left and right legs 7A, 7B have the same structure except for the knee joint 72x, and applying a force from behind to the knee joint 72x unlocks it, causing the left and right legs 7A, 7B to bend.
[0051] The base 8 has a connecting protrusion 8a at the rear and a connecting recess 8b at the front, allowing the base 8 of another toy doll B to be connected in the front-to-rear direction of the toy doll B. When multiple toy dolls B are connected together and a movement is made from an upright position to a bent-and-stretched position, the movement can be continued from the rear toy doll B to the front toy doll B, like falling dominoes.
[0052] Next, the function of the guide pole 6 in the body 1 in accordance with the change in posture of the doll toy B from an upright state to a bent and stretched state will be described with reference to FIGS. 7(a) and 7(b).
[0053] The guide pole 6 has a sliding surface 6d as a sliding portion and a braking flange 6e as a braking portion, similar to the doll toy A of the first embodiment. The side surface of the sliding guide 6b comes into contact with the guided surface 11 formed inside the body 1, and the braking flange 6e comes into contact with the lower end of the inner mouth portion 43 of the head 4 that protrudes into the body 1, thereby controlling the lowering height of the body 1 to a predetermined height. The sliding surface 6d and braking flange 6e of the guide pole 6 are both housed inside the body 1 and are not exposed to the outside.
[0054] When the doll toy B changes from the upright state shown in Figure 7(a) to the bent and stretched state shown in Figure 7(b), the upper end 6a of the guide pole 6 pushes up the upper jaw 41 of the head 4, which is attached to the lower jaw 42 by the jaw hinge 4a, causing the doll toy A to open its mouth, which is the same as the doll toy A in the first embodiment.
[0055] As described above, the doll toy B of this embodiment can be easily transformed from an upright state to a kneeling state by the user applying force from behind to the knee joint 72x, and this transformation can be enjoyed. In particular, the doll toy B of this embodiment can change its head 4 in addition to the change in the legs 7A, 7B, allowing the user to enjoy even more tasteful transformations.
[0056] Furthermore, by connecting a plurality of doll toys B in the front and rear direction using the base part 8, this change in posture can be propagated from the rear doll toy B to the front doll toy B, which is a feature of the present invention.
[0057] (Other variations) In both the doll toy A of the first embodiment and the doll toy B of the second embodiment described above, the guide pole 6 that penetrates the torso 1 is used as an example of the guide part, but this is not limited to this and it may be, for example, a member that guides the outer periphery of the torso 1 or a member that guides the arm 5.
[0058] Furthermore, in the doll toy A of the first embodiment, the sliding protrusion 23 that moves the foot 23A of the leg 2A is triggered by the actuation protrusion 101c of the activation device 100 disposed in the base 3, but the foot 23A connected to the lower leg 22A via the third joint 2c is not essential. Also, a structure may be adopted in which the posture is changed by directly moving the leg 2A without using the activation device 100.
[0059] Furthermore, in both doll toys A and B, the height setting for the lowered torso 1 is configured to be performed by the braking flange 6e of the guide pole 6 inside the torso 1 and the braked part 43b, but this may also be performed by setting the contact angle of the parts of the upper leg 21, 71 and the lower leg 22, 72 that face each other when bent behind the second joint 2b, 7b.
[0060] Furthermore, both the doll toy A of the first embodiment and the doll toy B of the second embodiment have been described as frog-shaped doll toys, but it goes without saying that doll toys with other motifs, such as a human or a bear, can be made by changing the shape of the head 4 in various ways. Also, the opening of the mouth of the head 4 and the rotation of the arms 5 are not essential, and a doll toy with a simpler structure without these functions can also be made.
[0061] Furthermore, both doll toy A and doll toy B have been described as having a structure in which the base parts 3, 8 are placed on a table or the like to enjoy changing their postures, but the use of the dolls is not limited to this, and for example, the dolls may be made by disengaging the locking mechanism of the knee joints and attaching springs to guide poles 6 inside body 1 to keep legs 2, 7 always extended, or to keep them always bent or kneeling. With such a doll toy, by pressing body 1 or base parts 3, 8 against the force of the springs, it is possible to enjoy changing the shape of legs 2, 7 and opening and closing movements of head 4.
