Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] Among humanoid bodies, there are some that can form various postures, and it may be required that any posture be appropriately realized (without a sense of discomfort). In general, however, as the variety of postures of a humanoid body increases, the structure tends to become more complex.

[0005] An exemplary object of the present invention is to appropriately diversify the postures that a humanoid body can form and to realize this with a relatively simple configuration.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0006] One aspect of the present invention relates to a joint structure, the joint structure of a doll body comprising an abdomen, legs, and a waist connecting them, wherein the waist includes a first part forming the rear part of the waist and rotatably connecting the legs, a second part forming the front part of the waist and rotatably connecting the first part forward, and a third part forming the central part of the waist and rotatably connecting the second part upward. Another aspect of the present invention is the first component and the first component Below the first part A toy part of a model toy comprising a second part connected to a third part, The second part is, A first part forming the first portion of the second part, A second part forming a second part located on the opposite side of the first part of the second component, the second part being rotatably connected to the first part, A third part forming a third part positioned between the first and second parts of the second part, the third part being rotatably connected to the second part, Includes, As the third part rotates relative to the second part in response to the rotation of the second part relative to the first part, the third part rotates relative to the second part, so that the third part rotates in the direction of the first part. Upwards It is configured to move. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] According to the present invention, the possible postures that can be formed by the doll body can be appropriately diversified, and this can be achieved with a relatively simple configuration. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[Figure 12] This is a schematic diagram illustrating the relative movement of the lumbar region. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0009] The embodiments will be described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings. Note that the following embodiments do not limit the invention as defined in the claims, and not all combinations of features described in the embodiments are essential to the invention. Two or more features from the multiple features described in the embodiments may be combined arbitrarily. Furthermore, identical or similar configurations will be given the same reference numeral, and redundant descriptions will be omitted.

[0010] (Overall structure of the doll body) Figure 1 is a schematic diagram showing a doll body 1 according to an embodiment. The doll body 1 comprises a head 11, a chest 12, an abdomen 13, a waist 14, legs 15, and arms 16 (the chest 11, abdomen 12, and waist 13 may be collectively referred to as the torso). Each of the individual parts 11 to 16 is supported so as to be rotatable (or swingable) relative to an adjacent part. For example, the head 11 is rotatably supported relative to the chest 12, the abdomen 13 is rotatably supported relative to the waist 14, the legs 15 are rotatably supported relative to the waist 14, and the arms 16 are rotatably supported relative to the chest 12.

[0011] In this way, joint structures are provided for each part of the humanoid body 1, and a user (for example, the owner of the humanoid body 1) can set the humanoid body 1 in a desired posture, such as a forward flexion posture, a dorsiflexion posture, a lateral flexion posture, etc.

[0012] In addition, in this specification, when explaining the positional relationship of each part, it may be described as front (forward), rear (backward), left (left side), right (right side), up (upper), down (lower), etc., but these expressions are relative to the humanoid body 1. For example, the front corresponds to the front side of the humanoid body 1, and the rear corresponds to the back side of the humanoid body 1.

[0013] (Joint structure of the abdomen of the humanoid body) FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the structure of the torso of the humanoid body 1. The abdomen 13 and the waist 14 are detachably connected to each other. The abdomen 13 includes an upper abdomen 131 and a lower abdomen 132. Although details will be described later, the upper abdomen 131 is slidably connected to the lower abdomen 132 in the vertical direction. Further, a cover portion 121 is attached to the chest 12 so as to be openable and closable by rotation, and the closed cover portion 121 covers the central portion in front of the abdomen 13.

[0014] FIG. 3(A) is a perspective view when the cover portion 121 is in the closed state. FIG. 3(B) is a perspective view when the cover portion 121 is in the open state. The cover portion 121 seals a later-described abdominal core part 130 in the closed state and exposes the abdominal core part 130 in the open state.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 4, the abdomen 13 and the waist 14 are connected to each other via a connecting part 191. Usually, the connecting part 191 can be held on the waist 14 side by a fixing part 1911 provided on the lower surface side.

[0016] The abdomen 13 includes an abdominal core part 130. The abdominal core part 130 extends in the vertical direction from the upper abdomen 131 to the lower abdomen 132 at the central part of the abdomen 13, and as shown in FIG. 4, it can be inserted and removed from the waist 14 side in a state where the abdomen 13 and the waist 14 are separated from each other.

[0017] Figure 5 is a schematic right-side view showing the internal structure of the abdomen 13. The abdomen 13 further includes a thoracic connecting part 51 and a rotational assist part 52. A pair of thoracic connecting parts 51 are arranged on both sides of the abdominal core part 130. A pair of rotational assist parts 52 are arranged on both sides of the abdominal core part 130 to correspond to these pairs of thoracic connecting parts 51. That is, a left and right pair of thoracic connecting parts 51 and a left and right pair of rotational assist parts 52 are arranged on the left and right sides of the abdominal core part 130.

[0018] As shown in the enlarged schematic diagram of Figure 5, the rotation assist part 52 includes a connecting part 521, a connecting part 522, and a protrusion 523. The connecting part 521 is provided at one end of the base part 520 of the rotation assist part 52 and is rotatably connected to the main body of the abdomen 13. The connecting part 522 is provided at the other end of the base part 520 and, as will be described in detail later, rotatably connects the chest connecting part 51. The protrusion 523 is provided between the connecting part 521 and the connecting part 522 and, as will be described in detail later, restricts the rotation range of the chest connecting part 51.

[0019] Furthermore, as shown in the enlarged schematic diagram of Figure 5, the chest connecting part 51 includes a connecting part 511, a connecting part 512, and an extension part 513. The connecting part 511 rotatably connects the chest 12. The connecting part 512 rotatably connects to the main body of the abdomen 13 and, in this embodiment, rotatably connects to the connecting part 522 of the rotation assist part 52. The extension part 513 extends from the connecting part 511 to the connecting part 512 to connect them.

[0020] This structure allows the chest 12 to rotate relative to the abdomen 13 via the chest connecting part 51, regardless of the presence or absence of the abdominal core part 130, thereby avoiding interference between adjacent parts that may occur, for example, when assuming a dorsiflexion posture.

[0021] In this embodiment, the connecting portion 512 is located forward and below the connecting portion 511, and the extension portion 513 is provided in an L-shape. This allows the chest connecting part 51 to rotate the chest 12 backward relative to the abdomen 13.

[0022] Furthermore, the connecting portion 512 includes a restricting portion 5121 that limits the range of rotation relative to the main body of the abdomen 13. In this embodiment, the restricting portion 5121 is provided in a shape that extends from the connecting portion 512 toward the rotation assist part 52. When the chest portion 12 rotates relative to the abdomen 13, the restricting portion 5121 engages with the protrusion 523 as the chest connecting part 51 rotates. This limits the range of rotation of the chest connecting part 51 toward the main body of the abdomen 13. In this view, the restricting portion 5121 and the protrusion 523 may be described as, for example, an extension portion and a locking portion, respectively. With such a structure, the aesthetic appearance of the space formed between the chest portion 12 and the abdomen 13 (i.e., the internal structure between the chest portion 12 and the abdomen 13) when viewed from the outside can be improved.

[0023] Figures 10(A) to 10(C) are schematic right-side views showing in more detail the configuration of the chest connecting part 51 and the rotation assist part 52 when the chest 12 rotates in the anterior-posterior direction relative to the abdomen 13. Figure 10(A) shows the configuration in the standard posture (or upright posture). Figure 10(B) shows the configuration in the dorsiflexion posture (when the chest 12 rotates backward relative to the abdomen 13). Figure 10(C) shows the configuration in the flexion posture (when the chest 12 rotates forward relative to the abdomen 13). For ease of understanding the structure, the cross-sectional structure of the part of the chest 12 connected to the connecting part 511 is shown with a dashed line.

[0024] As can be seen in Figure 10(B), in the dorsiflexed position, the connecting portion 522 and the protruding portion 523 rotate upward and backward from the standard position (see Figure 10(A)) with the connecting portion 521 as the axis of rotation. Consequently, the entire chest connecting part 51, including the connecting portion 511, the connecting portion 512, and the extended portion 513, rotates upward and backward. The manner of these rotations is indicated by arrows in the figure. In this way, the chest 12 rotates backward relative to the abdomen 13.

[0025] As can be seen from Figure 10(C), in the flexed position, the overall posture of the rotation assist part 52, including the connecting part 521, connecting part 522, and protrusion 523, is substantially maintained from the standard position (see Figure 10(A)). On the other hand, with respect to the chest connecting part 51, the connecting part 511 and extension part 513 rotate upward and forward around the connecting part 512 as the axis of rotation, causing the entire chest connecting part 51 to rotate upward and forward. The manner of these rotations is indicated by arrows in the figure. In this way, the chest 12 rotates forward relative to the abdomen 13.

[0026] As described above, the chest connecting part 51 and the rotation assist part 52 are arranged in pairs on both sides of the abdominal core part 130. Here, the chest connecting part 51 and the rotation assist part 52 can be deformed individually on the left side and / or the right side. That is, the left chest connecting part 51 and rotation assist part 52 can take the form shown in Figure 10(B) and / or Figure 10(C). Independently of this, the right chest connecting part 51 and rotation assist part 52 can take the form shown in Figure 10(B) and / or Figure 10(C). Therefore, the chest 12 can take an extended position by extending almost directly above the abdomen 13, or it can take a lateral flexion position by rotating to one side relative to the abdomen 13.

[0027] Figure 6 is a schematic right-side view showing other internal structures of the abdomen 13. As described above, the abdomen 13 includes an upper abdomen 131 and a lower abdomen 132, with the upper abdomen 131 being slidably connected to the lower abdomen 132 in the vertical direction. On both sides, the abdomen 13 includes a pair of left and right sliding parts 61 that allow the upper abdomen 131 to slide relative to the lower abdomen 132.

[0028] As shown in the enlarged schematic diagram of Figure 6, the sliding portion 61 is provided by having a convex portion 611 extending vertically on one of the upper and lower abdomens 131 (the lower abdomen 132 in this embodiment) and a concave portion 612 extending vertically on the other (the upper abdomen 131 in this embodiment), and these are held to slide against each other. In this embodiment, columnar projections 6111 are provided on both sides of the convex portion 611, and elongated holes 6121 extending vertically are provided on both sides of the concave portion 612, and the projections 6111 are slidably fitted into the corresponding elongated holes 6121. This structure limits the sliding area of ​​the upper abdomen 131 relative to the lower abdomen 132.

[0029] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the pair of sliding parts 61 are provided to form a predetermined gap between the upper abdomen 131 and the lower abdomen 132. As a result, the upper abdomen 131 is pivotable relative to the lower abdomen 132, and for example, in a dorsiflexion position, the upper abdomen 131 is rotatable backward relative to the lower abdomen 132, and for example, in a lateral flexion position, the upper abdomen 131 is rotatable laterally relative to the lower abdomen 132.

[0030] Figures 11(A) to 11(C) are schematic front views showing in more detail the configuration of the pair of left and right sliding parts 61 when the upper abdomen 131 rotates vertically relative to the lower abdomen 132. Figure 11(A) shows the configuration in the standard posture. Figure 11(B) shows the configuration in the extended posture (when the upper abdomen 131 is extended almost directly upward relative to the lower abdomen 132). Figure 11(C) shows the configuration in the lateral flexion posture (when the upper abdomen 131 is rotated to one side relative to the lower abdomen 132).

[0031] As can be seen in Figure 11(B), in the extended position, the pair of elongated holes 6121 on the upper abdomen 131 move upward relative to the corresponding projections 6111 on the lower abdomen 132, compared to the standard position (see Figure 11(A)). The manner of these rotations is indicated by arrows in the figure. In this way, the upper abdomen 131 moves upward relative to the lower abdomen 132.

[0032] As can be seen in Figure 11(C), in the lateral flexion position, one of the pair of elongated holes 6121 provided in the upper abdomen 131 moves upward relative to the corresponding projection 6111 provided in the lower abdomen 132, compared to the standard position (see Figure 11(A)). The manner of these rotations is indicated by arrows in the figure. In this way, the upper abdomen 131 rotates to one side relative to the lower abdomen 132.

[0033] As described above, the pair of sliding parts 61 are provided to form a predetermined gap between the upper abdomen 131 and the lower abdomen 132. For example, as shown in Figure 6, the protrusion 611 is provided so that its width is narrower than the width of the recess 612. As a result, although Figures 11(A) to 11(C) illustrate the extended posture and the lateral flexion posture, it is also possible to exhibit the forward flexion posture and the dorsal flexion posture.

[0034] According to the above-described joint structure (referred to as joint structure ST1), in a doll body 1 equipped with an abdominal core part 130 that is prone to interference between adjacent parts and can be inserted and removed, the torso can be deformed according to various postures.

[0035] Figure 7(A) is a schematic front view showing the relative movement between the chest 12, upper abdomen 131, and lower abdomen 132 in the doll body 1, and Figure 7(B) is a schematic right side view showing the same configuration.

[0036] According to joint structure ST1, for example: The chest portion 12 is movable relative to the upper abdomen 131 as indicated by arrows A11 and / or A12 (see Figure 7(A)), that is, it is movable vertically or rotated to the left or right; The upper abdomen 131 is movable relative to the lower abdomen 132 as indicated by arrows A21 and / or A22 (see Figure 7(A)), that is, it is movable vertically or rotated to the left or right; The chest portion 12 is movable relative to the upper abdomen 131 as indicated by arrows A31 and / or A32 (see Figure 7(B)), that is, it can move vertically or rotate forward or backward; also, The upper abdomen 131 is movable relative to the lower abdomen 132 as indicated by arrows A41 and / or A42 (see Figure 7(B)), that is, it can move vertically or rotate forward or backward.

[0037] In summary, one aspect of this embodiment relates to the joint structure ST1 of the doll body 1, and the abdomen 13 includes an abdominal core part (first part) 130 and a pair of chest connecting parts (second part) 51. The abdominal core part 130 extends vertically in the central part of the abdomen 13 and is arranged to be insertable and removable from the waist 14 side when the abdomen 13 and waist 14 are separated from each other. The pair of chest connecting parts 51 are arranged on both sides of the abdominal core part 130 and are rotatably connected to the chest 12. With such a joint structure ST1, the chest 12 can be rotated relative to the abdomen 13 by the pair of chest connecting parts 51 regardless of the presence or absence of the abdominal core part 130, making it possible to assume a variety of postures and to avoid interference between adjacent parts that may occur in the process.

[0038] (Joint structure of the doll's waist) Figures 8(A) and 8(B) are schematic right-side views showing the internal structure of the waist section 14. For ease of understanding, the legs 15 and connecting parts 191 are not shown here. The waist section 14 includes the rear waist section part 141, the front waist section part 142, and the central waist section part 143.

[0039] The rear waist part 141 forms the rear part of the waist 14 and connects the leg 15 to it so that it can rotate. The axis of rotation of the leg 15 relative to the rear waist part 141 is axis AX1.

[0040] The front waist section part 142 forms the front part of the waist section 14 and is connected to the rear waist section part 141 so as to be rotatable forward. The axis of rotation of the front waist section part 142 relative to the rear waist section part 141 is defined as axis AX2.

[0041] The central waist section part 143 forms the central part of the waist section 14 and is connected to the front waist section part 142 so as to be rotatable upward. The axis of rotation of the central waist section part 143 relative to the front waist section part 142 is defined as axis AX3.

[0042] As can be seen from Figures 8(A) and 8(B), the posterior waist part 141, the anterior waist part 142, and the central waist part 143 are arranged in order from bottom to top, partially overlapping, when viewed from the side (left to right). In the state shown in Figure 8(B), the anterior waist part 142 rotates forward relative to the posterior waist part 141, and the central waist part 143 rotates upward relative to the anterior waist part 142, resulting in the central waist part 143 moving upward compared to the state shown in Figure 8(A). Consequently, the chest 12 and abdomen 13 move upward.

[0043] The pivot axis AX2 of the front waist part 142 relative to the rear waist part 141 is located in front of the pivot axis AX1 of the leg part 15 relative to the rear waist part 141. Also, the pivot axis AX3 of the central waist part 143 relative to the front waist part 142 is located behind the pivot axis AX1. This makes it possible to exhibit deformation without any sense of incongruity and to avoid interference between adjacent parts. For example, in the state shown in Figure 8(B), the cover part 121 can be opened and closed without interfering with the front waist part 142.

[0044] In this embodiment, the rear waist part 141 includes a restricting portion 1411 that limits the rotational range of the front waist part 142. The restricting portion 1411 is provided with a recessed shape on the inner wall of the rear waist part 141. The central waist part 143, which rotates together with the front waist part 142, engages with the restricting portion 1411, thereby allowing the front waist part 142 to rotate forward by a predetermined amount relative to the rear waist part 141.

[0045] Figure 9 is a schematic top view showing the internal structure of the waist section 14. For ease of understanding, the connecting part 191 is not shown here. Also, to show the details of the internal structure, the left side of the waist central part 143 (part of the right side in the figure) is not shown. The waist central part 143 is provided with an opening OP1, and the fixing part 1911 of the connecting part 191 (see Figure 4) fits into this opening OP1. The waist section 14 further includes the waist peripheral part 144 and the waist peripheral connecting part 145.

[0046] The waist area parts 144 form the parts corresponding to the kusazuri, wakidate, haidate, or hizaguro, and are provided to cover the legs 15 from the outside relative to the waist central part 143. In this embodiment, the waist area parts 144 are provided individually for the front, rear, and outer sides of the legs 15.

[0047] The waist area connecting part 145 pivotably connects the waist area part 144 to the waist central part 143. The waist area connecting part 145 includes a front extension part 1451, a rear extension part 1452, and a lateral extension part 1453.

[0048] The front extension part (first extension part) 1451 extends outward from the lateral front portion of the waist central part 143 and is rotatably connected to this lateral front portion. The axis of rotation of the front extension part 1451 relative to the waist central part 143 is axis AX21.

[0049] The rear extension part (second extension part) 1452 extends outward from the lateral rear portion of the waist central part 143 and is rotatably connected to this lateral rear portion. The axis of rotation of the rear extension part 1452 relative to the waist central part 143 is axis AX22.

[0050] The lateral extension part (third extension part) 1453 connects the front extension part 1451 and the rear extension part 1452, and is rotatably connected to them. The axis of rotation of the lateral extension part 1453 relative to the front extension part 1451 is axis AX23, and the axis of rotation of the lateral extension part 1453 relative to the rear extension part 1452 is axis AX24.

[0051] With this structure, the lateral extension part 1453 can move in the front-to-back direction as the front extension part 1451 and the rear extension part 1452 rotate relative to the central waist part 143. Consequently, the waist peripheral part 144, which is pivotably connected to the central waist part 143 by the waist peripheral connecting part 145, can also move in the front-to-back direction. Therefore, with this structure, the waist peripheral part 144 can assume a variety of postures regardless of the posture of the legs 15.

[0052] In this embodiment, the waist area part 144 located in front of the leg portion 15 is pivotably connected to the front extension part 1451. Furthermore, the waist area part 144 located behind the leg portion 15 is pivotably connected to the rear extension part 1452, and the waist area part 144 located on the outer side of the leg portion 15 is pivotably connected to the lateral extension part 1453. This allows each waist area part 144 to assume a variety of positions regardless of the position of the leg portion 15.

[0053] In this embodiment, each of the front extension part 1451, the rear extension part 1452, and the lateral extension part 1453 is provided with a fixing part 146 for fixing the waist area part 144. The fixing part 146 is pivotably connected to the waist area connecting part 145 (on the side of the front extension part 1451, the rear extension part 1452, or the lateral extension part 1453). With this structure, each waist area part 144 fixed to the fixing part 146 is pivotable relative to the waist area connecting part 145. The fixing part 146 can also be described as a gripping part, holding part, etc., as it grips or holds the waist area part 144.

[0054] Figures 12(A) to 12(C) are schematic top views that show in more detail the deformation of the waist area connecting part 145. Figure 12(A) shows the configuration in the standard posture. Figure 12(B) shows the configuration when the lateral extension part 1453 moves forward. Figure 12(B) also shows the configuration when the lateral extension part 1453 moves backward.

[0055] As can be seen in Figure 12(B), when the lateral extension part 1453 moves forward, the front extension part 1451 rotates forward around axis AX21 and the rear extension part 1452 rotates forward around axis AX22 from the standard position (see Figure 12(A)). The manner of these rotations is indicated by arrows in the figure. In this way, the front extension part 1451, the rear extension part 1452, and the lateral extension part 1453 each move forward relative to the waist central part 143.

[0056] As can be seen in Figure 12(C), when the lateral extension part 1453 moves backward, the front extension part 1451 rotates backward around axis AX21, and the rear extension part 1452 rotates backward around axis AX22, from the standard position (see Figure 12(A)). The manner of these rotations is indicated by arrows in the figure. In this way, the front extension part 1451, the rear extension part 1452, and the lateral extension part 1453 each move backward relative to the waist central part 143.

[0057] According to the above-described joint structure (referred to as joint structure ST2), in the doll body 1, where interference between adjacent parts is likely to occur, the torso can be deformed according to various postures.

[0058] In summary, another aspect of this embodiment relates to the joint structure ST2 of the doll body 1, where the waist 14 includes a rear waist part (first part) 141, a front waist part (second part) 142, and a central waist part (third part) 143. The rear waist part 141 forms the rear part of the waist 14 and rotatably connects to the legs 15. The front waist part 142 forms the front part of the waist 14 and rotatably connects to the rear waist part 141. The central waist part 143 forms the central part of the waist 14 and rotatably connects to the front waist part 142. With such a joint structure ST2, the front waist part 142 and the central waist part 143 can be rotated relative to the rear waist part 141 regardless of the position of the legs 15, making it possible to assume a variety of postures and avoiding interference between adjacent parts that may occur in the process.

[0059] (Summary) According to the above embodiment, the doll body 1 is constructed by directly / indirectly connecting individual parts to one another, and at least two of these parts are connected to each other so as to be rotatable relative to each other.
