[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2012-187353 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, there is always a demand for novelty in this type of toy. SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT EMBODIMENT An object of the present invention is to provide a running toy that is novel and interesting by changing its shape in a novel manner not seen before. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a running toy whose form can be changed from an initial form to at least two other forms, a first changed form or a second changed form, comprising: a protruding member that protrudes forward in the initial form and that can be displaced rearward when the running toy collides with an obstacle; a switching means that is operable to switch the form change and can be switched to at least a first position and a second position; a first moving member that displaces in conjunction with the protruding member when the protruding member is displaced rearward when the switching means is in the first position; and a second moving member that displaces in conjunction with the protruding member when the protruding member is displaced rearward when the switching means is in the second position, wherein the form can be changed from the initial form to the first changed form when the first moving member displaces in conjunction with the protruding member, and the form can be changed from the initial form to the second changed form when the second moving member displaces in conjunction with the protruding member. Effect of the Invention

[0006] The present invention is as described above, and when the first moving member is displaced in conjunction with the protruding member, the form can be changed from the initial form to the first modified form, and when the second moving member is displaced in conjunction with the protruding member, the form can be changed from the initial form to the second modified form. The switching means can be operated to determine whether the first moving member or the second moving member is to be moved in conjunction with the protruding member. With this configuration, the form to which the running toy changes when it collides with an obstacle can be selected depending on the position of the switching means. Therefore, a new and interesting running toy can be provided by changing the form in a novel manner that has not been seen before.

[0007] In addition, the state of the switching means may be made invisible from the outside when the traveling toy is placed on the ground. In this way, only the person who operates the switching means can see the form that changes, and other people cannot know what the form changes to. With such a configuration, the range of ways to play can be expanded.

[0008] For example, the switching means may be configured to select rock, paper, or scissors for rock-paper-scissors, and when the protruding member is displaced rearward, rock, paper, or scissors corresponding to the selection result of the switching means may be displayed. In this way, two traveling toys can be bumped into each other to change their form, and a game of rock, paper, or scissors can be played with the displayed rock, paper, or scissors.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0010] An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, unless otherwise specified, "front" refers to the direction in which the vehicle travels in the initial form. Furthermore, the up-down direction refers to the up-down direction in the initial form.

[0011] The traveling toy 10 according to this embodiment can change from an initial form shown in Fig. 1 to two different forms. Specifically, the toy can change into either a first modified form shown in Fig. 2 or a second modified form shown in Fig. 3. In this embodiment, the initial form is a car form as shown in Fig. 1, the first modified form is a robot form as shown in Fig. 2, and the second modified form is a dinosaur form as shown in Fig. 3. It goes without saying that these initial and modified forms are merely examples, and other forms (such as the form of an animal or another vehicle) may be adopted.

[0012] As shown in FIG. 4, the running toy 10 is composed of assembly parts including a chassis 11, a front section 30, a central section 35, a windshield section 40, a rear section 50, a side door section 55, a rear side section 60, and a wheel section 70.

[0013] The chassis 11 is an assembly part that constitutes the bottom of the vehicle in its initial form. As shown in Fig. 5, the chassis 11 is made up of parts such as a bottom member 15, a bottom cover 16, a protruding member 12, a protruding biasing member 13, a switching means 14, a first moving member 17, a first biasing member 18, a second moving member 19, and a second biasing member 20.

[0014] The bottom member 15 and the bottom cover 16 are components that form a plate-shaped frame by combining them vertically. Various other components are built in between the bottom member 15 and the bottom cover 16. The inner surface (upper surface) of the bottom member 15 is provided with a guide groove 15a that guides the protruding member 12, which will be described later, so that it can slide back and forth. In addition, a total of four wheel attachment parts 16a are provided on both sides of the bottom cover 16, front and rear. The wheel attachment parts 16a are rotatably attached to the wheel attachment parts 16a, which will be described later. In addition, rear attachment parts 16b are provided on both sides of the bottom cover 16. The rear part 50, which will be described later, is rotatably attached to the rear attachment parts 16b.

[0015] The protruding member 12 is provided so as to protrude forward in the initial form, and is provided so as to be displaceable rearward when the running toy 10 collides with an obstacle. The protruding member 12 is constantly urged forward by a protruding biasing member 13. The front surface of the protruding member 12 is a bumper portion 12a that can come into contact with an obstacle. When the running toy 10 runs forward and collides with an obstacle, the bumper portion 12a is pushed, and the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward against the biasing force of the protruding biasing member 13. The protruding member 12 has a rail portion 12b behind the bumper portion 12a, and the rail portion 12b is slidably engaged with a guide groove 15a of the bottom member 15. Therefore, the protruding member 12 is slidable back and forth relative to the bottom member 15 by moving along the guide groove 15a.

[0016] The switching means 14 is a member operable to switch between different forms. The switching means 14 is attached to the protruding member 12 and is slidable left and right. Specifically, by sliding left and right relative to the protruding member 12, the switching means 14 can be switched to a first position (rightmost position) shown in Fig. 7, a second position (leftmost position) shown in Fig. 8, or a third position (intermediate position between the first and second positions) shown in Fig. 9.

[0017] 6(b), the switching means 14 has a knob-like operating part 14a that protrudes from the bottom surface side in an operable manner. When switching the form change, the switching means 14 is moved to an arbitrary position by catching a fingernail or the like on the operating part 14a.

[0018] The switching means 14 also includes a protrusion 14b that protrudes upward. The protrusion 14b is disposed so as to face the front ends of a first moving member 17 and a second moving member 19, which will be described later.

[0019] The first moving member 17 is attached to the bottom member 15 and the bottom cover 16 so as to be slidable back and forth. The first moving member 17 has a first pressed portion 17a at the front end. The first moving member 17 also has a hook-shaped hook portion 17b that protrudes upward.

[0020] The first moving member 17 is always biased forward by the first biasing member 18 (see FIG. 6). As shown in FIG. 7, when the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward while the switching means 14 is in the first position, the first moving member 17 is displaced rearward in conjunction with the protruding member 12. Specifically, when the switching means 14 is in the first position, the protrusion 14b of the switching means 14 faces the first pressed portion 17a of the first moving member 17. When the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward in this state, the switching means 14 attached to the protruding member 12 also moves rearward together with the protruding member 12, so that the protrusion 14b of the switching means 14 presses the first pressed portion 17a of the first moving member 17 rearward. As a result, the first moving member 17 slides rearward against the biasing force of the first biasing member 18.

[0021] The second moving member 19 is attached to the bottom member 15 and the bottom cover 16 so as to be slidable back and forth. The second moving member 19 has a second pressed portion 19a at the front end. The second moving member 19 also has a swinging member engaging portion 19b that protrudes upward. The second moving member 19 also has leg engaging portions 19c that protrude laterally at a total of four locations on both the left and right sides and the front and rear.

[0022] The second moving member 19 is constantly biased forward by the second biasing member 20 (see FIG. 6). As shown in FIG. 8, when the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward while the switching means 14 is in the second position, the second moving member 19 is displaced rearward in conjunction with the protruding member 12. Specifically, when the switching means 14 is in the second position, the protrusion 14b of the switching means 14 faces the second pressed portion 19a of the second moving member 19. When the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward in this state, the switching means 14 attached to the protruding member 12 also moves rearward together with the protruding member 12, so that the protrusion 14b of the switching means 14 presses the second pressed portion 19a of the second moving member 19 rearward. As a result, the second moving member 19 slides rearward against the biasing force of the second biasing member 20.

[0023] 9, when the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward while the switching means 14 is in the third position, neither the first moving member 17 nor the second moving member 19 is displaced rearward. That is, when the switching means 14 is in the third position, the protrusion 14b of the switching means 14 is located between the first pressed portion 17a and the second pressed portion 19a, so that even if the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward in this state, the protrusion 14b of the switching means 14 does not interfere with the first pressed portion 17a and the second pressed portion 19a (enters the gap between the first pressed portion 17a and the second pressed portion 19a).

[0024] In this way, when the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward, the movement will be either "only the first moving member 17 moves," "only the second moving member 19 moves," or "neither the first moving member 17 nor the second moving member 19 moves," depending on the position of the switching means 14.

[0025] The front part 30 is an assembly part that constitutes the front portion of the vehicle in the initial form. As shown in Fig. 5, the front part 30 is composed of parts such as a bonnet member 31 and a rotating shaft 32. The bonnet member 31 is attached to a central part 35 (described later) by the rotating shaft 32 so as to be rotatable. As shown in Fig. 2, the bonnet member 31 rotates when the robot assumes the first transformed form, and constitutes the shoulder of the robot.

[0026] The central portion 35 is an assembly part that constitutes the center of the body of the vehicle in the initial form. The central portion 35 is attached to the chassis 11 via the rear portion 60, which will be described later. The central portion 35 and the rear portion 60 are always biased by springs in a direction in which they rise up relative to the chassis 11, but in the initial form, the central portion 35 and the rear portion 60 are fixed to the chassis 11 in a folded state. As shown in FIG. 5, the central portion 35 is composed of parts such as a body member 36, a pair of side members 37, a swing member 21, a swing shaft 22, and a swing spring 23.

[0027] The body member 36 has a shape representing the head 36a and chest 36b of the robot. The head 36a and chest 36b are not exposed to the outside in the initial form or the second modified form, but are exposed to the front when the robot is in the first modified form. The chest 36b has an engaged portion 36c and an opening 36d, as shown in FIG. 2(b). The engaged portion 36c is a cutout for engaging the hook portion 17b of the first moving member 17. In the initial form, the hook portion 17b engages with the engaged portion 36c, thereby maintaining the central portion 35 folded toward the chassis 11. On the other hand, when the hook portion 17b is disengaged from the engaged portion 36c, the central portion 35 stands up due to the force of the spring. The opening 36d is an opening for projecting the engaged portion 21b of the swinging member 21, which will be described later, to the outside. The body member 36 also includes arm support shafts 36e protruding on both sides. The arm support shafts 36e are used to rotatably attach a side door section 55, which will be described later.

[0028] The side members 37 are members constituting the vicinity of the side windows of the vehicle, and are provided in a pair on the left and right sides and fixed to both sides of the body member 36. The side members 37 include leg support shafts 37a that protrude laterally. The leg support shafts 37a are portions for rotatably mounting the rear side portions 60 described below.

[0029] The swinging member 21 is a member rotatably attached to the body member 36, and includes an axial hole 21a that penetrates horizontally, an engaged portion 21b formed at the lower part of the axial hole 21a, and a hook 21c formed at the upper part of the axial hole 21a. The swinging member 21 is rotatably supported by a swinging shaft 22 inserted into the axial hole 21a. The swinging member 21 is intended to hold the neck and tail of the dinosaur from unfolding by engaging the hook 21c with an engagement shaft 53 described later. The swinging member 21 is constantly biased by a swinging spring 23 so that the hook 21c is in the rearward direction (in the direction of engaging with the engagement shaft 53).

[0030] The engaged portion 21b of the swinging member 21 protrudes from the lower surface of the body member 36 and is disposed so as to face the swinging member engaging portion 19b of the second moving member 19, as shown in Fig. 6(c) etc. Therefore, when the second moving member 19 is displaced rearward, the engaged portion 21b is pushed, causing the swinging member 21 to swing. When the swinging member 21 swings against the biasing force of the swinging spring 23 in this manner, the hook 21c swings forward and is released from engagement with the engagement shaft 53.

[0031] The windshield unit 40 is an assembly part that constitutes the central portion of the windshield of the vehicle in its initial form. As shown in Fig. 5, the windshield unit 40 is composed of parts such as a front member 41, a face member 42, a jaw member 43, a front shaft 44, and a front spring 45.

[0032] The front member 41 is attached to the central portion 35 by a front shaft 44 disposed near the front end so as to be rotatable relative to the central portion 35. In the initial form, the front member 41 overlaps the central portion 35, but can be rotated upward and forward from this state to be deployed, and is constantly biased in the deployment direction by a front spring 45. Before deployment (initial form), only the front surface of the front member 41 is exposed, and after deployment (second modified form), the back surface faces upward so that both surfaces are exposed.

[0033] The face member 42 is a part that constitutes the face of the dinosaur in the second transformation form. The jaw member 43 is a part that constitutes the jaw of the dinosaur in the second transformation form. These parts are attached to the back side of the front member 41 and are not exposed to the outside in the initial form and the first transformation form, but are exposed when the dinosaur assumes the second transformation form.

[0034] The rear section 50 is an assembly part that constitutes the rear of the roof of the vehicle in the initial state. As shown in FIG. 5, the rear section 50 is made up of parts such as a rear member 51, a rear shaft 52, and an engagement shaft 53.

[0035] The rear member 51 is attached to the central portion 35 by a rear shaft 52 disposed near the rear end so as to be rotatable relative to the central portion 35. In the initial form, the rear member 51 overlaps the central portion 35, but can be deployed by rotating upward and rearward from this state. Before deployment (initial form), only the front surface of the rear member 51 is exposed, and after deployment (second modified form), the back surface faces upward so that both surfaces are exposed.

[0036] The engagement shaft 53 is a shaft member fixed to the rear side of the rear member 51. This engagement shaft 53 is capable of engaging with the hook 21c of the swinging member 21 already described. Specifically, when the windshield portion 40 is folded backward against the biasing force of the front spring 45, and the rear portion 50 is further folded forward from above, the engagement shaft 53 engages with the hook 21c, and the windshield portion 40 and the rear portion 50 can be maintained in the folded state (see Figs. 1 and 2). When the engagement shaft 53 and the hook 21c are released, the windshield portion 40 and the rear portion 50 are unfolded by the biasing force of the front spring 45, and the neck and tail of the dinosaur are exposed as shown in Fig. 3.

[0037] The side door section 55 is an assembly part that constitutes the vicinity of the side door of the vehicle in the initial state, and is provided in a pair on the left and right sides. As shown in Fig. 5, the side door section 55 is composed of parts such as a door member 56, an arm member 57, a tubular member 58, and a compression spring 59.

[0038] The door member 56 is a member exposed to the outside so as to form the side of the vehicle in the initial form. An arm member 57 is fixed to the inside of this door member 56. The arm member 57 is a part that forms the arm of the robot in the first modified form. The door member 56 also has a tubular portion 56a that protrudes inward. A tubular member 58 is inserted into this tubular portion 56a so as to be expandable and contractible, and is biased in the expanding direction by a compression spring 59. The door member 56 is connected to the arm support shaft 36e of the body member 36 via the tubular member 58.

[0039] In the initial form, the side door section 55 is engaged with the front section 30 and pressed inward against the biasing force of the compression spring 59. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 2, when the front section 30 rotates relative to the central section 35, the engagement with the front section 30 is released and the biasing force of the compression spring 59 acts, causing the side door section 55 to spread out to both sides. By spreading out to both sides, the inner arm member 57 becomes visible. Furthermore, by being released in this way, the side door section 55 becomes rotatable back and forth relative to the central section 35, making it possible to operate the robot by swinging its arms around.

[0040] The rear side portions 60 are assembly parts that configure the rear sides of the vehicle in the initial form, and are provided in a pair on the left and right. As shown in Fig. 5, the rear side portions 60 are configured from parts such as a side rear member 61, an inner cover 62, a side rear shaft 63, and a side rear spring 64. The side rear member 61 is a member that is exposed to the outside so as to configure the rear sides of the vehicle in the initial form. An inner cover 62 is fixed to the inside of the side rear member 61.

[0041] The rear side portion 60 is rotatably attached to the rear attachment portion 16b of the bottom cover 16 via a side rear shaft 63. In addition, the rear side portion 60 is constantly biased by a side rear spring 64 in a direction in which it rises upward.

[0042] 1, in the initial form, the rear side portions 60 are folded together with the central portion 35 and are collapsed against the biasing force of the side rear springs 64. On the other hand, in the first transformed form, they stand up, so as to constitute both legs of the robot, as shown in FIG.

[0043] The wheel units 70 are assembly parts that make up the area around the wheels of the vehicle in the initial form, and four are provided on the front, rear, left and right sides. As shown in FIG. 5, each wheel unit 70 includes an upper leg member 71, a lower leg member 74, a wheel 77, and an axle 78. The upper leg member 71 is rotatably attached to the wheel attachment portion 16a of the bottom cover 16 by an upper leg axle 72. The lower leg member 74 is rotatably attached to the tip of the upper leg member 71 by a lower leg axle 75. The wheel 77 is rotatably attached to the tip of the lower leg member 74 by an axle 78.

[0044] 3, the wheel section 70 is configured to form the four legs of a dinosaur in the second modified form by unfolding the upper leg member 71 and the lower leg member 74 so that they extend below the chassis 11. The upper leg member 71 and the lower leg member 74 are constantly biased by a spring in the direction in which they are unfolded in this manner.

[0045] The lower leg member 74 includes a locking portion 74a that can be engaged with the leg engaging portion 19c of the second moving member 19. By engaging the leg engaging portion 19c with the locking portion 74a, the upper leg member 71 and the lower leg member 74 of the wheel unit 70 are held in a folded state as shown in Fig. 1. On the other hand, when the second moving member 19 slides rearward and the engagement between the leg engaging portion 19c and the locking portion 74a is released, the upper leg member 71 and the lower leg member 74 are unfolded by the biasing force of the spring, and the chassis 11 is lifted upward as shown in Fig. 3. In addition, since the wheels 77 are rotatable, the running toy 10 can run forward by sliding on a flat surface.

[0046] According to this configuration, when the traveling toy 10 is caused to travel in the initial form and collides with something, the bumper portion 12a is pushed and the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward, thereby changing the form of the toy.

[0047] Specifically, when the protruding member 12 is displaced backward with the switching means 14 in the first position (see FIG. 7), the first moving member 17 is displaced backward in conjunction with the protruding member 12. When the first moving member 17 is displaced backward, the hooking portion 17b moves backward, and the hooking portion 17b and the engaged portion 36c are disengaged, so that the central portion 35 and the rear side portion 60 rise upward due to the spring force. At the same time, the front portion 30 rotates due to its own weight, and the head portion 36a of the robot is exposed. In addition, the front portion 30 rotates, and the engagement that has been holding down the side door portion 55 is released, so that the side door portion 55 opens on both sides, and the arm member 57 is exposed. This allows the robot to change its form from the initial form (car) shown in FIG. 1 to the first changed form (robot) shown in FIG. 2.

[0048] In addition, when the protruding member 12 is displaced backward with the switching means 14 in the second position (see FIG. 8), the second moving member 19 is displaced backward in conjunction with the protruding member 12. When the second moving member 19 is displaced backward, the swinging member engaging portion 19b moves backward, and the swinging member 21 is pushed and swings. When the swinging member 21 swings, the hook 21c and the engaging shaft 53 are disengaged, and the windshield portion 40 and the rear portion 50 are deployed forward and backward by the spring force. In addition, when the second moving member 19 is displaced backward, the leg engaging portion 19c and the locking portion 74a are disengaged, and the upper leg member 71 and the lower leg member 74 of the four wheel portion 70 are deployed downward by the spring force. This allows the form to be changed from the initial form (car) shown in FIG. 1 to the second transformed form (dinosaur) shown in FIG. 3.

[0049] Even if the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward when the switching means 14 is in the third position (see FIG. 9), the form does not change and remains in the initial form (wheel) shown in FIG.

[0050] As described above, this embodiment is capable of changing its form from the initial form to the first modified form when the first moving member 17 is displaced in conjunction with the protruding member 12, and of changing its form from the initial form to the second modified form when the second moving member 19 is displaced in conjunction with the protruding member 12. The switching means 14 can be used to control which of the first moving member 17 and the second moving member 19 is to be moved in conjunction with the protruding member 12. With this configuration, the form to which the running toy 10 changes when it collides with an obstacle can be selected depending on the position of the switching means 14. Thus, a new and interesting running toy 10 can be provided by changing its form in a novel manner that has not been seen before.

[0051] The switching means 14 according to this embodiment is located on the bottom surface of the running toy 10. Therefore, when the running toy 10 is placed on the ground, the state of the switching means 14 cannot be seen from the outside. In this way, only the person who operates the switching means 14 can see the form that changes, and other people cannot know what the form changes to. This configuration can expand the range of ways to play.

[0052] For example, the switching means 14 may be configured to select rock, paper, or scissors in rock-paper-scissors, and when the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward, rock, paper, or scissors corresponding to the selection result of the switching means 14 may be displayed.

[0053] Specifically, as shown in Fig. 6(b), letters or pictures representing rock, paper, and scissors are displayed near the switching means 14 (on the bottom surface of the traveling toy 10). For example, "rock" is displayed at position D, "scissors" is displayed at position E, and "paper" is displayed at position F. By displaying in this manner, rock, paper, and scissors can be selected depending on the position of the switching means 14 (if the switching means 14 is in the third position, "rock" is selected, if it is in the first position, "scissors" is selected, and if it is in the second position, "paper" is selected).

[0054] When the protruding member 12 is displaced backward in this state, the selected rock-paper-scissors or paper is displayed. For example, "rock" is displayed at position A in Fig. 1, "paper" is displayed at position B in Fig. 2, and "paper" is displayed at position C in Fig. 3. By displaying in this manner, the selected rock-paper-scissors or paper can be displayed so as to be visible from the front after the traveling toy 10 collides.

[0055] That is, when "rock" (third position) is selected with the switching means 14, the form remains unchanged and remains in the initial form even if the protruding member 12 is displaced backward. In this initial form, a rock is displayed at a position visible from the front (position A in FIG. 1).

[0056] When "scissors" (first position) is selected with the switching means 14, the protruding member 12 is displaced backward, and the form changes to the first transformation form. In this first transformation form, scissors is displayed at a position visible from the front (position B in FIG. 2).

[0057] When "par" (second position) is selected with the switching means 14, the protruding member 12 is displaced rearward, and the form is changed to the second changed form.
