Abstract
Description
Toys and display materials
[0001] The present invention relates to a toy and a display member, and more particularly to a toy and a display member that include a doll body and a display member to which the doll body is attached and displayed.
[0002] In recent years, a plush toy stand has been proposed to display and enjoy plush toys, which can hold the plush toy in a freestanding state. The plush toy stand includes a base member serving as a foundation and a support member that stands upright on the base member, and the plush toy is attached to the support member to allow the plush toy to stand upright.
[0003] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a stuffed toy stand in which the clothes of a stuffed toy (doll body) are inserted into a support plate fitted to a base plate. When not in use, the base plate and support plate are disassembled and connected by a ball chain, making it portable as a key holder. Patent Document 2 also discloses a stuffed toy stand in which a base fitted with a support plate is rotatably attached to the base plate, allowing the orientation of the stuffed toy to be changed. In the stuffed toy stand, a background plate is detachably attached to the base plate. Therefore, the orientation of the stuffed toy and the background can be changed to change the display state of the stuffed toy.
[0004] Utility Model Registration No. 3240261 Utility Model Registration No. 3240173
[0005] In the stuffed animal stand described in Patent Document 1, when a stuffed animal is attached to a support plate, the support plate is hidden by the stuffed animal, so even if decorations are added to the support plate, the decorations cannot be seen, and the display may become monotonous. In addition, in the stuffed animal stand described in Patent Document 2, a base plate, a pedestal, a support plate, and multiple background plates must be prepared in order to change the orientation and background of the stuffed animal. Therefore, there is a risk that the display state of the stuffed animal cannot be freely changed, especially when the stuffed animal stand is carried around.
[0006] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a toy and display member that can increase the variety of display states of doll bodies with a compact configuration.
[0007] The above problem is solved by providing an exhibition member which comprises a doll body and an exhibition member to which the doll body is attached for exhibition, the exhibition member having a support member which supports the doll body, the support member having a support main body portion, an erection portion which is provided on the support main body portion and which enables the support main body portion to be erected on an installation surface, a first attachment portion which is formed on the support main body portion and to which the doll body can be attached, a second attachment portion which is formed on the support main body portion at a predetermined distance from the first attachment portion and to which the doll body can be attached, a first decorative portion which is connected to the support main body portion, and a second decorative portion which is connected to the support main body portion at a predetermined distance from the first decorative portion, and
[0008] In this way, since multiple decorative parts are provided on the support member that supports the doll body, there is no need to prepare separate decorative parts. Also, the visibility of the first decorative part and the second decorative part can be changed depending on the attachment position of the doll body. Therefore, the variety of display conditions for the doll body can be increased with a compact configuration.
[0009] The erected portion may be provided at one end of the support body in the erecting direction, the first attached portion may be provided closer to the erected portion of the support body in the erecting direction than the second attached portion, and the first decorative portion may be provided closer to the erected portion of the support body in the erecting direction than the second decorative portion. In this way, by varying the attachment position of the doll body in the erecting direction, the visibility of the first decorative portion and the second decorative portion can be changed.
[0010] Furthermore, the first decorative part may be disposed between the first attachment part and the upright part in the erecting direction, and the second decorative part may be disposed at the same position as the second attachment part in the erecting direction. Because the first decorative part and the first attachment part are positioned differently, when the doll body is attached to the second attachment part, the first decorative part can be visible while the first attachment part is hidden by the doll body. Furthermore, because the second decorative part and the second attachment part are positioned the same, the support member can be made compact when the doll body is attached to the first attachment part.
[0011] In addition, the support body may extend longitudinally in the erection direction, and the first decorative portion may be disposed so as to protrude from the support body in a direction intersecting the erection direction. In this way, the first decorative portion protrudes from the support body, making it easier to see.
[0012] In addition, the support body, the first decorative portion, and the second decorative portion may be integrally formed as a plate-like member, and since the support member is an integrally formed plate-like member, it can be carried compactly.
[0013] The display member may have a base member having an engaged portion formed thereon, the erecting portion having an engaging portion that engages with the engaged portion of the base member, and the support body may be erected relative to the base member by the engaging portion engaging with the engaged portion. In this way, the support member is engaged with the base member, thereby further increasing the stability of the support member.
[0014] The engaging portion of the base member may have a first engaging portion and a second engaging portion formed of elongated holes extending in a direction perpendicular to the erecting direction of the support body, and the first engaging portion and the second engaging portion may intersect with each other when viewed from the erecting direction. In this way, since the engaging portions of the base member are formed to intersect, the orientation of the doll body can be changed with a simple structure. This further increases the variety of display states of the doll body.
[0015] The engaging portion of the base member may have a third engaging portion that detachably engages with the engaging portion and a fourth engaging portion formed at a different position from the third engaging portion, and the display member may have a decorative member that detachably engages with the fourth engaging portion of the base member, the decorative member having a plate-shaped decorative main body portion, a decorative engaging portion provided on the periphery of the decorative main body portion and capable of engaging with the fourth engaging portion of the base member, and a decorative engaged portion formed on the decorative main body portion and having the same shape as the third engaging portion of the base member. Since the engaging portion is also formed on the decorative member, the decorative member can serve as a base to hold a support member. This further increases the variety of display states of the doll body.
[0016] The doll body may have a doll body and an attachment portion provided on the doll body, and the first and second attachment portions may be attachment holes that penetrate the doll body in the attachment direction and have a polygonal shape when viewed from the attachment direction, and the attachment portion may have a cylindrical protrusion that detachably engages with the attachment hole. In this way, since the cylindrical protrusion is attached to the polygonal attachment hole, the attachment angle of the doll body is easily maintained. This further increases the variety of display states of the doll body.
[0017] Furthermore, the above problem is solved by an exhibition member for attaching and displaying a doll body, the exhibition member having a support member capable of supporting the doll body, the support member having a support main body portion, an erection portion provided at one end of the support main body portion in the erection direction in which the support main body portion is erected and allowing the support main body portion to be erected on an installation surface, a first attachment portion formed on the support main body portion and to which the doll body can be attached, a second attachment portion formed on the support main body portion at a predetermined distance from the first attachment portion and to which the doll body can be attached, a first decorative portion connected to the support main body portion, and a second decorative portion connected to the support main body portion at a predetermined distance from the first decorative portion, the first attachment portion being provided on the erection portion side of the support main body portion in the erection direction than the second attachment portion, and the first decorative portion being provided on the erection portion side of the support main body portion in the erection direction than the second decorative portion.
[0018] In this way, since multiple decorative parts are provided on the support member that supports the doll body, there is no need to prepare separate decorative parts. Also, by changing the mounting position of the doll body in the upright direction, the visibility of the first decorative part and the second decorative part can be changed. Therefore, the variety of display conditions for the doll body can be increased with a compact configuration.
[0019] According to the toy and display member of the present invention, the variety of display states of the doll body can be increased with a compact structure.
[0020] Fig. 1 is a front view of a toy. Fig. 2 is an exploded view of a toy. Fig. 3 is a side view of a toy. Fig. 4 is a view explaining the positional relationship between the doll body and the display member, showing the doll body attached to the first attachment part. Fig. 5 is a view explaining the positional relationship between the doll body and the display member, showing the doll body attached to the second attachment part. Fig. 6 is a view showing how a support member is attached to a decorative member. Fig. 7 is an explanatory view of the attachment part of the base member.
[0021] A toy 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the present embodiment) will be described below with reference to Figures 1 to 6. In the following description, as shown by the arrow in Figure 1, the "vertical direction" refers to the vertical direction when the toy 1 is placed on a flat surface.
[0022] 1 to 3, the toy 1 includes a doll body 2 and a display member 3 for displaying the doll body 2. The display member 3 allows the doll body 2 to stand on its own and also decorates the doll body 2. The user can use the display member 3 to make the doll body 2 stand on its own and appreciate the doll body 2 and the decoration of the display member 3 together.
[0023] <Doll Body> As shown in Figures 1 to 3, the doll body 2 is modeled after a doll, animal, character, food, vehicle, etc. The doll body 2 has a doll main body 2a and an attachment part 2b provided on the back of the doll main body 2a. Figure 1 is a diagram showing the doll body 2 and the display member 3 assembled together as seen from the front side (front side). Figure 2 is a diagram showing the doll body 2 and the display member 3 disassembled into their respective components. Note that Figure 2 shows the back side (rear side) of the doll body 2.
[0024] 1 and 3, the doll body 2a is, for example, a stuffed toy, and has a three-dimensional shape filled with cotton or the like. The front of the doll body 2a is painted with the face of a human or animal, for example. When the doll body 2 is attached to the display member 3, the user can appreciate the doll body 2a and the display member 3 together.
[0025] 2 and 3, the attachment portion 2b is provided on the back surface of the doll's main body 2a. Because the attachment portion 2b is provided on the back surface of the doll's main body 2a, when the doll body 2 is attached to the display member 3, the attachment portion 2b is hidden by the doll's main body 2a, improving the appearance. The attachment portion 2b has a cylindrical protrusion that engages with a first attachment portion 23 and a second attachment portion 24 (attachment holes) described below. In other words, the attachment portion 2b protrudes rearward from the back surface of the doll's main body 2a and has a circular shape when the doll body 2 is viewed from the back. The attachment portion 2b is glued or sewn to the back surface of the doll's main body 2a, but may also be detachably attached to the doll's main body 2a.
[0026] 1, the display member 3 is, for example, a stuffed toy stand to which the doll body 2 is attached for display. The display member 3 has a base member 10 that serves as a foundation, a support member 20 for attaching and supporting the doll body 2, and a first decorative member 30 and a second decorative member 40 for decorating the doll body 2. The installation surface is the surface on which the display member 3 is installed, and may be, for example, the surface of a desk or the like, or the surface of a wall or the like.
[0027] As shown in Figure 2, the display member 3 is used by assembling the respective members: base member 10, support member 20, first decorative member 30, and second decorative member 40. Each member of the display member 3 is decorated with decorations related to the doll body 2. Therefore, by assembling the respective members of the display member 3 and supporting the doll body 2 on the display member 3, the user can enjoy the decorations of both the doll body 2 and the display member 3. Furthermore, because the respective members of the display member 3 are detachably engaged, it can be disassembled and made compact for easy portability when not in use.
[0028] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the base member 10 is a plate-shaped resin plate that serves as the base of the display member 3. The base member 10 is, for example, a plate-shaped member that is placed on an installation surface, has a semi-cylindrical shape when viewed from above, and has a curved front end. The top surface of the base member 10 is decorated with flowers, grass, etc. Note that the shape, material, decoration, etc. of the base member 10 are not limited to this, and it may have a three-dimensional shape or be made of a material other than resin. Furthermore, it is not limited to a base that is placed on a flat surface, but may also be a base that is attached to a wall surface. Furthermore, if the base member 10 is plate-shaped, both sides may be decorated.
[0029] As shown in FIG. 3 , the base member 10 is formed with a plurality of engaged portions 11 that penetrate the base member 10 in the thickness direction. In other words, the engaged portions 11 are elongated holes that penetrate the support member 20, first decorative member 30, and second decorative member 40 (described below) in the upright direction (vertical direction) and extend in a direction perpendicular to the upright direction (horizontal direction). The upright portions 22 of the support member 20, the first decorative upright portion 32 of the first decorative member 30, and the second decorative upright portion 42 of the second decorative member 40 are respectively assembled to the engaged portions 11. More specifically, the engaging portions 22a of the upright portions 22, the first decorative engaging portions 32a of the first decorative upright portions 32, and the second decorative engaging portions 42a of the second decorative upright portions 42 are inserted into the engaged portions 11, respectively.
[0030] The engaged portion 11 includes a first engaged portion 11a, a second engaged portion 11b extending in a different direction from the first engaged portion 11a, and a third engaged portion 11c and a fourth engaged portion 11d extending in different directions from the first engaged portion 11a and the second engaged portion 11b. The first engaged portion 11a and the second engaged portion 11b intersect with each other when viewed from the upright position (top view). The first engaged portion 11a, the second engaged portion 11b, the third engaged portion 11c, and the fourth engaged portion 11d have the same shape. The multiple engaged portions 11 are formed at different positions in the front-to-back direction. Therefore, when the display member 3 is assembled, each component that is upright on the base member 10 can be seen from the front.
[0031] In this way, by forming multiple engaged portions 11, it is possible to increase the variety of display states of the doll body 2, the support member 20, the first decorative member 30, and the second decorative member 40. Note that the shape, number, and position of the engaged portions 11 are not limited to this. For example, the engaged portions 11 are not limited to elongated holes that penetrate in the thickness direction, but may also be holes that are recessed in the thickness direction.
[0032] 1 to 3, the support member 20 is a plate-shaped resin plate for supporting the doll body 2. The support member 20 detachably engages with the engaged portion 11 of the base member 10 and stands upright on the base member 10. The support member 20 has a support main body portion 21, an erected portion 22 that allows the support main body portion 21 to stand upright on an installation surface, a first attached portion 23 and a second attached portion 24 to which the attachment portion 2b is detachably attached, and a first decorative portion 25 and a second decorative portion 26 that decorate the doll body 2.
[0033] The support body 21, the first decorative portion 25, and the second decorative portion 26 are integrally formed plate-like members. In other words, the support body 21 is the portion of the plate-like member where the first attachment portion 23 and the second attachment portion 24 are formed, and the first decorative portion 25 and the second decorative portion 26 are patterned portions drawn on the plate-like member. Because the support member 20 is thus an integrally formed plate-like member, it can be carried compactly. Note that the first decorative portion 25 and the second decorative portion 26 may be configured as separate members from the support body 21. In this case, the first decorative portion 25 and the second decorative portion 26 may be attached to the support body 21 with an adhesive or the like.
[0034] As shown in FIG. 2 , the support body 21 is a transparent, plate-like member that extends linearly and elongatedly. The shape, material, decoration, etc. of the support body 21 are not limited to those described above, and the support body 21 may be, for example, columnar, disc-shaped when viewed from the front, curved, or the like, and may be made of a material other than transparent resin. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 , the support body 21 is assembled to the base member 10 by engaging the engaging portion 22 a of the erecting portion 22 (described later) with the engaged portion 11, and is erected in the vertical direction relative to the base member 10. In this embodiment, the “standing direction” of the support body 21 refers to the direction in which the support body 21 erects relative to the base member 10 when the support member 20 is assembled to the base member 10, which is the same as the “vertical direction.”
[0035] As shown in Fig. 2, the standing portion 22 is provided at one end (first end) of the support main body 21 in the standing direction of the support main body 21. The standing portion 22 has an engaging portion 22a that engages with the engaged portion 11 of the base member 10. The engaging portion 22a is a convex portion that is formed at the lower end of the support main body 21 and protrudes downward, and engages with the engaged portion 11 of the base member 10. As shown in Figs. 1 and 3, the engaging portion 22a is inserted into, for example, the third engaged portion 11c of the engaged portion 11. Since the support member 20 is engaged with the base member 10 by the engaging portion 22a in this way, the stability of the support member 20 can be further improved.
[0036] In this embodiment, the support main body 21 is erected relative to the base member 10 by the engaging portion 22 a of the erecting portion 22 engaging with the engaged portion 11. However, this is not limiting, and the support main body 21 may be erected relative to the installation surface by the erecting portion 22 without using the base member 10. For example, the support main body 21 may be pillar-shaped and configured to be self-supporting. In this case, one end of the pillar shape corresponds to the erecting portion 22. Alternatively, a plate member for self-supporting may be formed at one end of the support main body 21, and the support main body 21 may be configured to be self-supporting. In this case, the plate member corresponds to the erecting portion 22. Alternatively, an attraction member such as a suction cup or a magnet may be attached to one end of the support main body 21, and the support main body 21 may be configured to be self-supporting. In this case, the attraction member corresponds to the erecting portion 22.
[0037] 2 and 3, the first attachment portion 23 is formed in the center portion of the support body 21 in the erection direction and penetrates the support body 21 in the thickness direction. In other words, the first attachment portion 23 is an attachment hole that penetrates the doll body 2 in the attachment direction and has a polygonal shape when viewed from the attachment direction. Specifically, the first attachment portion 23 has a hexagonal shape and engages with the cylindrical attachment portion 2b. In this embodiment, the "thickness direction" of the support body 21 is the direction that coincides with the "front-rear direction" when the support member 20 is assembled to the base member 10. Furthermore, the "thickness direction" and the "front-rear direction" are the directions that coincide with the attachment direction of the doll body 2 when the doll body 2 is attached to the display member 3.
[0038] 2 and 3, the second attachment portion 24 is formed on the support main body 21 and penetrates the support main body 21 in the thickness direction. The second attachment portion 24 is arranged at a predetermined distance from the first attachment portion 23 in the erection direction of the support main body 21. In other words, the second attachment portion 24 is an attachment hole that penetrates the doll body 2 in the attachment direction and has a polygonal shape when viewed from the attachment direction. Specifically, the second attachment portion 24 has a hexagonal shape and engages with the cylindrical attachment portion 2b. Note that the attachment method of the attachment portion 2b to the first attachment portion 23 and the second attachment portion 24 may be a method other than concave-convex engagement as long as they are detachable, such as hook-and-loop fasteners or magnets.
[0039] The first attached portion 23 is provided closer to the upright portion 22 of the support main body 21 in the upright direction than the second attached portion 24. As shown in Figures 1 and 3, when the support member 20 is assembled to the base member 10, the first attached portion 23 and the second attached portion 24 are arranged spaced apart from each other in the upright direction. In other words, the first attached portion 23 and the second attached portion 24 are arranged at different height positions, and the first attached portion 23 is arranged lower than the second attached portion 24.
[0040] In this way, by arranging the first attachment portion 23 and the second attachment portion 24 at a predetermined distance in the erection direction of the support main body 21, the attachment position of the doll body 2 relative to the exhibition member 3 can be changed. This further increases the variety of display states of the doll body 2. Note that the positions and shapes of the first attachment portion 23 and the second attachment portion 24 are not limited to this, and they only need to be arranged at a predetermined distance from each other on the support main body 21. For example, the first attachment portion 23 and the second attachment portion 24 may be arranged at the same position in the erection direction. Furthermore, the first attachment portion 23 and the second attachment portion 24 are not limited to attachment holes that penetrate in the thickness direction, but may also be holes that are recessed in the thickness direction.
[0041] Furthermore, because the cylindrical attachment portion 2b of the doll body 2 is attached to the polygonal first attachment portion 23 and second attachment portion 24, the attachment angle of the doll body 2 relative to the support member 20 is easily maintained. More specifically, when the doll body 2 is attached to the support member 20, the attachment portion 2b of the doll body 2 is held at a predetermined angle relative to the support main body 21 by the frictional force of the inner peripheral surfaces of the through holes of the first attachment portion 23 and second attachment portion 24. Therefore, the user can attach the doll body 2 to the display member 3 so that the doll body 2 is tilted when viewed from the front, further increasing the variety of display states of the doll body 2.
[0042] As shown in FIG. 2 , the first decorative portion 25 is connected to the support body 21. Specifically, the first decorative portion 25 is a pattern drawn on a portion protruding from the support body 21 in a direction intersecting the erection direction. The "direction intersecting the erection direction" of the support body 21 is the width direction of the support body 21, which is a direction perpendicular to the "up-down direction" and "front-rear direction" when the support member 20 is assembled to the base member 10. The first decorative portion 25 is a pattern related to the doll body 2, and corresponds to the change in position of the doll body 2 when the doll body 2 is attached to the display member 3. Specifically, the first decorative portion 25 is, for example, an effect pattern that appears when the doll body 2 appears to float. By making the first decorative portion 25 a pattern that corresponds to the change in position of the doll body 2, the change in appearance of the doll body 2 when attached to the display member 3 can be further enjoyed. The pattern is not limited to this, and other patterns, designs, letters, etc. may also be used. Furthermore, the shape and material of the first decorative portion 25 are not limited to those described above, and it may have a three-dimensional shape or may be made of a material other than resin.
[0043] As shown in FIG. 2 , the second decorative part 26 is connected to the support body 21 at a predetermined distance from the first decorative part 25. Specifically, the second decorative part 26 is a pattern drawn on a portion protruding from the support body 21 in a direction intersecting the erection direction. The second decorative part 26 is a pattern related to the doll body 2 and corresponds to the doll body 2 when the doll body 2 is attached to the display member 3. The second decorative part 26 is, for example, a speech bubble pattern when the doll body 2 is standing on the top surface of the base member 10. Specifically, it is a message ("HI!!") that appears as if the doll body 2 is saying hello. By making the second decorative part 26 a pattern that corresponds to the doll body 2, it is possible to enjoy even more changes in appearance when the doll body 2 is attached to the display member 3. Note that the pattern is not limited to this and may be other patterns, designs, letters, etc., or may be a pattern that corresponds to changes in the position of the doll body 2, as with the first decorative part 25. Furthermore, the shape and material of the first decorative part 25 are not limited to these and may, for example, be a three-dimensional shape or a material other than resin.
[0044] As shown in Figure 2, the first decorative portion 25 and the second decorative portion 26 are arranged to protrude from the support main body portion 21 in the width direction of the support main body portion 21. Specifically, the first decorative portion 25 has a first protruding decorative portion provided on a first side portion of the support main body portion 21, and a second protruding decorative portion provided on a second side portion of the support main body portion 21 opposite the first side portion. The second decorative portion 26 is provided on the first side portion of the support main body portion 21. Because the first decorative portion 25 and the second decorative portion 26 protrude laterally from the support main body portion 21 in this way, the first decorative portion 25 and the second decorative portion 26 are easily visible when the doll body 2 is attached to the support member 20.
[0045] The first decorative portion 25 is provided closer to the upright portion 22 of the support main body 21 in the upright direction than the second decorative portion 26. As shown in Figures 1 and 3, when the support member 20 is assembled to the base member 10, the first decorative portion 25 and the second decorative portion 26 are arranged spaced apart from each other in the upright direction. In other words, the first decorative portion 25 and the second decorative portion 26 are arranged at different height positions, and the first decorative portion 25 is arranged lower than the second decorative portion 26.
[0046] The first decorative part 25 is disposed between the first attachment part 23 and the erected part 22 in the erecting direction of the support main body 21. The second decorative part 26 is disposed at the same position as the second attachment part 24 in the erecting direction of the support main body 21. In other words, when the support member 20 is attached to the base member 10, the first decorative part 25 is disposed in the lower part of the support main body 21 and is disposed at a different height than the first attachment part 23. Furthermore, the second decorative part 26 is disposed in the upper part of the support main body 21 and is disposed at the same height as the second attachment part 24. In this way, when the doll body 2 is attached to the second attachment part 24, the first attachment part 23 can be hidden by the doll body 2. Furthermore, when the doll body 2 is attached to the first attachment part 23, the second attachment part 24 and the second decorative part 26 are aligned, allowing the length of the support main body 21 to be made compact.
[0047] 4A is a diagram showing the state in which the support member 20 is assembled to the base member 10 and the doll body 2 is attached to the first attachment portion 23. At this time, when viewed from the front of the doll body 2, the first decorative portion 25 overlaps the doll body 2, and the second decorative portion 26 does not overlap the stuffed toy. In other words, when the doll body 2 is attached to the first attachment portion 23, the first decorative portion 25 is hidden from view by the doll body 2, and the second decorative portion 26 is visible without overlapping with the stuffed toy. Specifically, in the state of FIG. 4A , the toy 1 depicts the doll body 2 standing in a grassy field, greeting someone.
[0048] 4B is a diagram showing the state in which the support member 20 is assembled to the base member 10 and the doll body 2 is attached to the second attachment portion 24. At this time, when viewed from the front of the doll body 2, the second decorative portion 26 overlaps the doll body 2, and the first decorative portion 25 does not overlap the stuffed toy. In other words, when the doll body 2 is attached to the second attachment portion 24, the second decorative portion 26 is hidden from view by the doll body 2, and the first decorative portion 25 is visible without overlapping with the stuffed toy. At this time, the first attachment portion 23 is also hidden from view by the doll body 2. Specifically, in the state of FIG. 4B , the toy 1 depicts the doll body 2 jumping up from a grassy field.
[0049] In this way, the toy 1 can change the visibility of the first decorative part 25 and the second decorative part 26 depending on the attachment position of the doll body 2. Therefore, the toy 1 can change the display state of the doll body 2, increasing the variety of display states. Furthermore, since multiple decorative parts (the first decorative part 25 and the second decorative part 26) are provided on the support member 20 that supports the doll body 2, there is no need to prepare separate decorative parts. Therefore, the display member 3 becomes compact and easily portable.
[0050] In this embodiment, two types of decorative portions are provided on the support member 20, but the number, position, shape, etc. of the decorative portions are not limited to this. Furthermore, the number of support members 20 assembled to the base member 10 is not limited to one, and multiple support members 20 may be assembled. Furthermore, decorations may be applied to both sides of the support member 20. Furthermore, decorations may be applied to the support main body portion 21.
[0051] 1 to 3, the first decorative member 30 is a plate-shaped resin plate for decorating the doll body 2. The first decorative member 30 detachably engages with the engaged portion 11 of the base member 10 and stands upright on the base member 10. As shown in FIG. 5, the first decorative member 30 is a plate-shaped member that is placed on a flat surface and also serves as a base for supporting the doll body 2. The first decorative member 30 has a first decorative main body portion 31, a first decorative standing portion 32 that allows the first decorative main body portion 31 to stand upright on the installation surface, and a decorative engaged portion 33 to which the engaging portion 22a of the support member 20 is attached.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 , the first decorative engagement portion 32a is inserted into, for example, the fourth engaged portion 11d of the engaged portion 11. In this way, the first decorative member 30 is engaged with the base member 10 by the first decorative engagement portion 32a, thereby further enhancing the stability of the first decorative member 30. Note that the first decorative main body portion 31 may be configured to stand upright on the installation surface using the first decorative upright portion 32 without using the base member 10.
[0054] As shown in FIG. 2 , the decorative engagement portion 33 is provided in the center portion of the first decorative main body portion 31 in the extension direction and is formed to penetrate the first decorative main body portion 31 in the thickness direction. As shown in FIG. 5 , when used as a base, the decorative engagement portion 33 is an elongated hole that penetrates the support member 20 in the erection direction and extends in a direction perpendicular to the erection direction. The decorative engagement portion 33 is provided on the first decorative main body portion 31 and has the same shape as the engagement portion 11 of the base member 10. By making the engagement portion 11 and the decorative engagement portion 33 the same shape, the erect portion 22 of the support member 20 can be assembled to both the base member 10 and the first decorative member 30. Note that the decorative engagement portion 33 is not limited to an elongated hole that penetrates the first decorative main body portion 31 in the thickness direction, but may also be a hole recessed in the thickness direction of the first decorative main body portion 31.
[0055] In this way, the first decorative member 30 can be used as a decorative member for decorating the doll body 2, as shown in Fig. 1, and can also be used as a base to which the support member 20 is attached, as shown in Fig. 5. This further increases the variety of display states for the doll body 2. Furthermore, since the first decorative member 30 can be used as both a base and a decorative member, there is no need to prepare multiple bases, and the display member 3 can be made compact.
[0056] 1 to 3, the second decorative member 40 is a plate-shaped resin plate for decorating the doll body 2. The second decorative member 40 detachably engages with the engaged portion 11 of the base member 10 and stands upright on the base member 10. The second decorative member 40 has a second decorative main body portion 41 and a second decorative standing portion 42 that allows the second decorative main body portion 41 to stand upright on the installation surface.
[0057] The second decorative main body part 41 is a plate-shaped member that is decorated as shown in Fig. 2. When the second decorative main body part 41 is assembled to the base member 10 as shown in Figs. 1 and 3, the second decorative main body part 41 stands upright in the vertical direction relative to the base member 10. The surface of the second decorative main body part 41 is decorated with characters, patterns, etc. related to the doll body 2. Note that the shape, material, decoration, etc. of the second decorative main body part 41 are not limited to these, and it may have a three-dimensional shape or be made of a material other than resin, for example.
[0058] As shown in FIG. 2 , the second decorative upright portion 42 is provided on the periphery of the second decorative main body portion 41. The second decorative upright portion 42 has a second decorative engagement portion 42a that engages with the engaged portion 11 of the base member 10. Specifically, the second decorative engagement portion 42a is a downwardly protruding convex portion formed on the lower end of the second decorative main body portion 41, and detachably engages with the engaged portion 11 of the base member 10. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 , the second decorative engagement portion 42a is inserted into, for example, the first engaged portion 11a of the engaged portion 11. In this way, the second decorative member 40 is engaged with the base member 10 by the second decorative engagement portion 42a, thereby further enhancing the stability of the second decorative member 40. Note that the second decorative main body portion 41 may be configured to stand upright on the installation surface using the second decorative upright portion 42 without using the base member 10.
[0059] 6, the second decorative engaging portion 42a can engage with the first engaged portion 11a or the second engaged portion 11b of the engaged portion 11. In other words, when the second decorative member 40 is assembled to the base member 10, the second decorative member 40 can be assembled in any orientation. Because the first engaged portion 11a and the second engaged portion 11b intersect with each other in this way, the orientation of the second decorative member 40 can be changed, while the base member 10 can be made compact.
[0060] In this embodiment, the member assembled to the first engaged portion 11a or the second engaged portion 11b is described as the second decorative member 40, and the members assembled to the third engaged portion 11c or the fourth engaged portion 11d are described as the support member 20 and the first decorative member 30. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the combination of the members of the display member 3 can be selected arbitrarily.
[0061] In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2 , the display member 3 is entirely made of a plate-like member. The engaging portion 11 is configured as a hole penetrating the thickness direction, and the first and second mounting portions 23 and 24 are configured as holes penetrating the thickness direction. In other words, the display member 3 does not have any protrusions extending from the plate-like surface. Therefore, when the display member 3 is not in use, the base member 10, support member 20, first decorative member 30, and second decorative member 40 can be stably stacked and can be carried compactly. Furthermore, the base member 10, support member 20, first decorative member 30, and second decorative member 40 can be manufactured by cutting them out from a single resin plate.
[0062] With the above-described configuration, multiple decorative parts (first decorative part 25 and second decorative part 26) are provided on the support member 20 that supports the doll body 2, eliminating the need to prepare separate decorative parts. Also, the visibility of the first decorative part 25 and the second decorative part 26 can be changed depending on the attachment position of the doll body 2. Therefore, the variety of display states of the doll body 2 can be increased with a compact configuration.
[0063] <Other Embodiments> In the above embodiment, the doll body 2 has been described as having a three-dimensional shape with cotton material filled inside, but what the display member 3 supports is not limited to this. For example, it may be a plate-shaped character body, or may be a PVC doll, a paper doll, or the like. Also, while the description has been given assuming that each member of the display member 3 is plate-shaped, this is not limited to this. Each member of the display member 3 may be, for example, column-shaped, or may have a three-dimensional shape.
[0064] In the above embodiment, the toy and display member according to the present invention have been mainly described. However, the above embodiment is merely an example for facilitating understanding of the present invention and does not limit the present invention. The present invention may be modified or improved without departing from the spirit thereof, and of course, the present invention includes equivalents thereof.
