Description

The present invention relates to moving toys and movable parts.

Various toys have been proposed that produce sound effects and other effects based on the read identification information (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

In Patent Document 1, a non-contact IC tag is provided on an item such as a trading card or a figurine as storage means for storing an ID, which is data identifying the item, audio data to be played when the item exists alone, or audio data to be played when the item exists in a composite form with other items, and the like, and a tag reader reads the data stored in the non-contact IC tag. Then, sound is generated based on the read ID and audio playback rules.

This allows the generated audio to be varied in various ways depending on the playback rules and the content of the audio data, allowing for a sense of realism, storytelling, game-like quality, and other aspects.

Meanwhile, as the need for toys that users can operate themselves to generate effects increases, there is a demand for technology that can generate various sounds and other effects with simple operations.

JP 2002-123276 A (FIG. 3)

However, in the toy of Patent Document 1 described above, although it is possible to change the sound that is generated in various ways, the effects are not generated by the user's operation. Therefore, for users who want to decide the timing of the effects with their own operation and enjoy more realistic effects, it is not very interesting.

Therefore, the present invention was made in consideration of the above problems, and aims to provide an interesting toy that allows users to enjoy various sound effects and other effects, and that can generate effects through user operation.

The following describes in detail the mode for carrying out the present invention (hereinafter, the embodiment) with reference to the attached drawings. Note that the same elements are given the same numbers throughout the description of the embodiment. Also, front, back, left and right refer to front, back, left and right as seen from the user's perspective.

As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the toy 10 according to this embodiment is worn on the abdomen of a user 1 by a belt 11 that is wrapped around the waist of the user. The toy 10 is provided with a performance unit 12 that emits light and sound, and the performance unit 12 is provided with a display unit 13. The display unit 13 is capable of displaying an image 14 that resembles a person (here, an image of a character).

By operating various switches, the user 1 can simulate the experience of a character's movements, such as changing all or part of the body into a different form (a transformation or form change) or activating a function (a technique) with the transformed arm or leg, by changing the image 14 and sound.

The overall structure of the toy 10 will be described in detail with reference to Figures 3 and 4. As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the toy body 20 is made up of a body base 22 that is curved in an arc (reference numeral 21 in Figure 3) so as to fit the abdomen of a person, and five attachment parts 23A, 23B, 23C, 23D, and 23E that protrude forward from the body base 22.

The upper surfaces of the mounting parts 23A to 23E are inclined downward and forward. In addition, the mounting parts 23A to 23D are arranged along the arc 21, with the mounting parts 23A and 23B positioned on the right side as seen by the user, and the mounting parts 23C and 23D positioned on the left side.

A liquid crystal display unit 13 is provided on the top surface of the mounting portion 23E. The display unit 13 is capable of emitting light in multiple colors using multiple LEDs or the like. The image 14 on the display unit 13 is displayed as an upright character, and when viewed from the front, it appears to be standing facing the same direction as the user.

The switches are broadly divided into three types: four function switches 31A, 31B, 31C, and 31D that correspond to the parts of the body shown in image 14 (right arm, right leg, left leg, and left arm), four transformation switches 32 for pre-transformation effects, and a decision switch 33 that determines the transformation and skill effects.

The function switches 31A to 31D are configured to correspond to the parts of the image 14: right arm switch 31A, right leg switch 31B, left leg switch 31C, and left arm switch 31D, and are shaped to impress with a circle symbol, a cross symbol, a triangle symbol, and a square symbol, respectively. This makes the four function switches 31A to 31D easy to distinguish visually.

In the following explanation, when the function switches 31A to 31D are explained in relation to body parts, they will be referred to as right arm switch 31A, right leg switch 31B, left leg switch 31C, and left arm switch 31D.

On the other hand, in image 14, each part is marked with a symbol such as a circle, a cross, a triangle, or a square. This makes it easy to recognize the relationship between the parts of image 14 and the function switches 31A to 31D, as shown by the dashed arrows in Figure 3.

Four function switches 31A to 31D are provided on the upper surfaces of the mounting portions 23A to 23D, respectively, and are arranged along the arc 21. The right leg switch 31B is located to the right of the display unit 13, and the right arm switch 31A is located to the right of the right leg switch 31B. Meanwhile, the left leg switch 31C is located to the left of the display unit 13, and the left arm switch 31D is located to the left of the left leg switch 31C.

Furthermore, the function switches 31A to 31D are detachable from the mounting portions 23A to 23D and are each replaceable. For example, in the case of the right arm switch 31A, the right arm switch 31A in use can be removed and another right arm switch (41A in FIG. 4) can be attached. In this embodiment, switches of the same part can be replaced (for example, a switch for the right leg and another switch for the right leg), but switches of different parts cannot be replaced (for example, a switch for the right leg and a switch for the left leg).

The four transformation switches 32 are provided at the tips of the mounting parts 23A to 23D. The transformation switches 32 consist of a base 32a that is rotatably supported at the tip openings 26 of the mounting parts 23A to 23D, and an operating part 32b that protrudes forward from the base 32a. The operating part 32b can rotate in the vertical direction (arrow (1) in Figure 4), and the user operates the operating part 32b to turn the transformation switches 32 ON and OFF.

The decision switch 33 is located on the side of the main body base 22 (here, to the right of the right arm switch 31A). The decision switch 33 consists of a base 33a that is rotatably mounted on the main body base 22, and a lever-shaped operating part 33b that curves and extends upward from the base 33a. The operating part 33b can be rotated toward the user (arrow (2) in Figure 3), and the user operates the operating part 33b to turn the decision switch 33 ON and OFF.

Next, the configuration of the four function switches (right arm switch 31A, right leg switch 31B, left leg switch 31C, and left arm switch 31D) will be described in detail with reference to Figures 5 to 8.

As shown in FIG. 5(A), the right arm switch 31A is composed of an insertion portion 34A inserted into the attachment portion 23A, a cover portion 35A provided at the upper end of the insertion portion 34A, a push button portion 36A disposed on the cover portion 35A, left and right terminals 37 protruding from the lower end of the insertion portion 34A, and an engagement portion 38 provided at the rear lower portion of the insertion portion 34A. An engagement groove 38a with a U-shaped cross section extending in the left-right direction is formed in the engagement portion 38.

As shown in FIG. 5(B), the push button 36A can be moved up and down (arrow (3) in the figure), and the user can turn the right arm switch 31A ON and OFF by operating the push button 36A. The top surface of the cover 35A is tilted forward. As shown in FIG. 5(C), the external shape of the insertion portion 34A is formed in a substantially circular shape to correspond to the circle symbol (see FIG. 3).

As shown in FIG. 6(A), the right leg switch 31B is composed of an insertion portion 34B that is inserted into the mounting portion 23B, a lid portion 35B provided at the upper end of the insertion portion 34B, a handle portion 36B that is placed on the lid portion 35B, left and right terminals 37 that protrude from the lower end of the insertion portion 34B, and an engagement portion 38 that is provided at the rear lower portion of the insertion portion 34B.

As shown in FIG. 6(B), the handle portion 36B can move forward and backward (arrow (4) in the figure), and the user turns the right leg switch 31B ON and OFF by operating the handle portion 36B. The top surface of the cover portion 35B is tilted forward. As shown in FIG. 6(C), the outer shape of the insertion portion 34B is formed in an X-shape to correspond to the X symbol (see FIG. 3).

As shown in Figures 7(A) and (B), the left leg switch 31C consists of an insertion portion 34C that is inserted into the mounting portion 23C, a lid portion 35C provided at the upper end of the insertion portion 34C, a dial portion 36C located on the lid portion 35C, left and right terminals 37 that protrude from the lower end of the insertion portion 34C, and an engagement portion 38 provided at the rear lower portion of the insertion portion 34C.

The dial portion 36C can rotate around a vertical axis (arrow (5) in the figure), and the user turns the left foot switch 31C ON and OFF by operating the dial portion 36C. The top surface of the lid portion 35C is tilted forward. As shown in FIG. 7(C), the external shape of the insertion portion 34C is roughly triangular, corresponding to the △ symbol (see FIG. 3).

As shown in FIG. 8(A), the left arm switch 31D is composed of an insertion portion 34D that is inserted into the mounting portion 23D, a lid portion 35D that is provided at the upper end of the insertion portion 34D, a wheel portion 36D that is rotatably supported by the insertion portion 34D and whose upper half is exposed from the lid portion 35D, left and right terminals 37 that protrude from the lower end of the insertion portion 34D, and an engagement portion 38 that is provided at the rear lower portion of the insertion portion 34D.

As shown in FIG. 8(B), the wheel portion 36D can rotate around a horizontal axis (arrow (6) in the figure), and the user turns the left arm switch 31D ON and OFF by operating the wheel portion 36D. The top surface of the lid portion 35D is tilted forward. As shown in FIG. 8(C), the external shape of the insertion portion 34D is formed into a substantially square shape corresponding to the square symbol (see FIG. 3).

Next, the bottom structure of the function switches 31A to 31D will be described with reference to FIG. 9. As shown in FIG. 9, the bottom surface 42 of each of the function switches 31A to 31D is provided with an identification portion 43 and an identification portion 44.

The identification unit 43 has a plurality of identification locations 43a (four in this embodiment). Each identification location 43a has a configuration in which a convex portion 43b is formed or not formed. That is, the identification unit 43 has a combination of the presence or absence of the convex portion 43b and the number of the identification locations 43a as identification information, and in this embodiment, has identification information for identifying the type of the movable member. For example, if four identification locations 43a are provided in the right arm switch 31A, 2 ⁴ =16 (types) of identification information can be obtained. As a result, 16 types of right arm switches 31A with different identification information can be obtained, and if four function switches 31A to 31D are further combined, 16 ⁴ types of information can be obtained. In this embodiment, the identification unit 43 determines the identification information based on the combination of the presence or absence of the convex portion 43b and the number of the identification locations 43a, but this is not limited to this. For example, the identification information may be stored in an ID tag or the like, and the identification information may be read by the toy body. However, by using the configuration of this embodiment, it is possible to transmit the identification information of the identification part to the toy body with a simpler configuration.

The identification unit 44 moves in the up and down directions (arrow (7) in FIG. 9) in conjunction with the operation of the operation parts (push button 36A, handle 36B, dial 36C, wheel 36D) of the function switches 31A to 31D. In this embodiment, the identification unit 44 is set to protrude and the function switches 31A to 31D are turned ON by operating the operation parts (push button 36A, handle 36B, dial 36C, wheel 36D) of the function switches 31A to 31D. In other words, the operation of the identification unit 44 is detected as an ON/OFF signal and sent to the control unit (described later). Note that in this embodiment, the identification unit 44 protrudes when the operation part of the movable member is operated, and is detected as an ON/OFF signal in the toy body and sent to the control unit, but is not limited to this. For example, the identification unit may be a light emitting unit or a signal output unit, and light may be emitted or a signal may be output when the operation part is operated. However, by using the configuration of this embodiment, it is possible to transmit the operation of the operating part of the movable member to the toy body with a simpler configuration.

Next, the mounting configuration of the function switches 31A to 31D will be explained with reference to Figure 10. Here, the mounting configuration of the right arm switch 31A will be explained, but the configurations of the right leg switch 31B, left leg switch 31C, and left arm switch 31D, other than the inner shape of the insertion hole, are the same as those of the right arm switch 31A, so explanations will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 10, an insertion hole 27 having an axis in the vertical direction is provided in the upper part of the mounting portion 23A. The inner shape of the insertion hole 27 is formed to have the same shape as the outer shape of the insertion portion 34A of the right arm switch 31A (see FIG. 5(c)). Therefore, the other function switches 31B to 31D cannot be inserted into the insertion hole 27 to which the right arm switch 31A is attached. In other words, the insertion hole 27 is a hole exclusively for the right arm switch 31A, and similar dedicated insertion holes are provided for the insertion holes of the other function switches 31B to 31D.

A protrusion 29 biased forward by a compression coil spring 28 is provided at the rear lower part of the insertion hole 27 so that it can retract. When the right arm switch 31A is inserted, the tip of the protrusion 29 fits into the engagement groove 38a, so that the right arm switch 31A fits securely into the insertion hole 27. When the right arm switch 31A is attached, the top surface of the cover portion 35A is inclined forward at approximately the same angle as the top surface of the attachment portion 23A.

Next, the internal structure of the toy body will be described with reference to FIG. 11. As shown in FIG. 11, a control unit 45 and a battery 46 are provided inside the toy body 20. The control unit 45 and the battery 46 are connected via a power switch 47. Therefore, when the power switch 47 is turned ON, a current flows through the control unit 45 and control begins.

The control unit 45 is connected to the first detection means 48, the second detection means 49, and the acquisition means 51. The first detection means 48 detects the attachment/detachment of the function switches 31A to 31D, and sends the detected information to the control unit 45. The protrusion 29 (see FIG. 10) may be used as the first detection means 48. The acquisition means 51 reads the shape of the identification section 43 of the function switches 31A to 31D and sends it to the control unit 45 as identification information. The second detection means 49 detects the presence or absence of operation of the function switches 31A to 31D from the operation of the identification section 44, and sends the detected information to the control unit 45. The transformation switch 32 and the decision switch 33 are also connected to the control unit 45, and information on the ON/OFF of the transformation switch 32 and the decision switch 33 is sent to the control unit 45. The control unit 45 is also connected to a memory 52, in which predetermined identification information and operations for these combinations are set in advance. The acquired identification information is also temporarily stored. Furthermore, the control unit 45 is connected to the production unit 12, which is connected to the display unit 13 and the sound generation unit 15. Note that the sound generation unit 15 is preferably located near the display unit 13, but the installation position on the toy body 20 is arbitrary.

Next, the operation of the toy will be explained based on Figs. 12 and 13. First, the first and second effects of the present invention will be explained based on Fig. 12. In the first and second effects, when the function switches (right arm switch 31A, right leg switch 31B, left leg switch 31C, and left arm switch) are replaced, a change to a different shape or color is produced.

As shown in FIG. 12, after starting (step SAS), when the function switch 31A-31D to be removed is turned OFF (step SA1), the sound generating unit 15 emits a sound effect notifying that it has been turned OFF (step SA2). When the function switch is removed (step SA3) and another function switch is attached (step SA4), the first detection means 48 detects the attachment, and the acquisition means 51 acquires the identification information of the function switch (step SA5). Based on the acquired identification information, the sound generating unit 15 emits a guidance sound and a standby sound as the first performance (step SA6) to notify that another function switch has been installed. For example, when a function switch having information of white is replaced with a function switch having information of red, a color guidance such as "red..." is issued, followed by the standby sound. If the function switch is turned ON within a predetermined time after the function switch is attached (step SA7), a form change sound is generated based on the identification information, and the corresponding part of the image 14 (for example, the right arm part of the image 14 when the right arm switch 31A is replaced) is lit, flashed, or discolored (step SA8), and the effect is completed (step SA9). On the other hand, if the function switch is not turned ON within a predetermined time after the function switch is attached in step SA7, the effect is completed (step SA9). Note that, although the embodiment has been described with respect to a case where the function switch is replaced, this is not necessarily limited, and the function switch may be attached to a toy body without a function switch attached. In that case, the first and second effects can be performed by following the process flow from step SA4 of this embodiment.

Next, the third and fourth effects of the present invention will be described based on FIG. 13. Here, the transformation of the entire body of the image is performed. As shown in FIG. 13, when the exchange of the function switches is completed (step SB1) and all four transformation switches 32 are turned ON (step SB2), based on the identification information and combination of the four function switches 31A to 31D, the sound unit 15 emits a sound effect (e.g., "beep beep beep beep") to notify that the transformation switch 32 has been operated, and a transformation standby sound (e.g., a countdown sound such as three, two, one, etc.) to notify that a transformation will be performed, as the third effect (step SB3). Next, when the decision switch 33 is turned ON within a predetermined time from the generation of the operation sound effect (step SB4), based on the identification information and combination, the sound unit 15 emits a transformation sound (e.g., "orange, black, etc.") as the fourth effect, and the image 14 changes (step SB5), and the transformation effect is completed (step SB6). On the other hand, if the decision switch 33 is not turned ON within a predetermined time after the sound effect is generated, the process ends (step SB7).

Next, other aspects of the second and fourth effects will be described with reference to FIG. 14. Here, a function is activated to perform a technique.

As shown in FIG. 14, when the replacement of the function switches is completed (step SC1) and at least one function switch is turned ON (step SC2), based on the identification information and combination of the function switches, as a second performance, the sound unit 15 emits a function activation sound (e.g., "Red missile...") to indicate that a function has been activated, and at the same time, the display unit 13 lights up, blinks, or changes color of the corresponding part of the image 14 (e.g., the left arm part of the image when the left arm switch is turned ON) (step SC3). If the decision switch 33 is turned ON within a predetermined time after the function activation sound is generated (step SC4), the process proceeds to step SC5. On the other hand, if the decision switch 33 is not turned ON within a predetermined time after the function activation sound is generated (step SC4), the process ends (step SC11).

In step SC5, it is determined whether all four function switches 31A-31D are ON. If all four function switches 31A-31D are ON, the process proceeds to step SC6, where the sound unit 15 emits a special deathblow sound based on the identification information and combination, and the display unit 13 changes the special image 14 as a fourth effect, completing the effect (step SC8). On the other hand, if all function switches 31A-31D are not ON, the process proceeds to step SC7, where a normal deathblow sound corresponding to the combination of function switches 31A-31D is emitted, and a normal image is changed as a fourth effect, completing the effect (step SC8).

According to the present embodiment described above, the user can enjoy the first effect that is produced when the user recognizes the installation or replacement of the function switches 31A to 31D, and can also operate the function switches 31A to 31D themselves to enjoy the second effect at any time of their choice.

You can also operate the transformation switch 32 and the decision switch 33 to enjoy the third and fourth effects while activating a function and experiencing the simulated transformation.

In addition, because the function switches 31A to 31D have individual identification information, the user can collect multiple switches for each of the function switches 31A to 31D and freely combine them to enjoy creating various patterns.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 16, by arranging the function switches 31A-31D in an arc shape, the left arm switch 31D and the right arm switch 31A are closer to the user, and the left leg switch 31C and the right leg switch 31B are configured to be farther away from the user than the left arm switch 31D and the right arm switch 31A. Therefore, when the user looks at the toy 10 from above, the positions of the user's right arm 2, right leg 3, left leg 4, and left arm 5 are similar to the positions of the function switches 31A, 31B, 31C, and 31D, and the positions of each part of the image. This makes it easier to recognize which part of the image 14 the four function switches 31A-31D correspond to. Therefore, it is easy to operate the function switches 31A-31D that correspond to the part of the image 14 that you want to change.

In addition, the display unit 13 and the function switches 31A to 31D are located on the forward-inclined top surface of the toy body 20, so that the display unit 13 and the function switches 31A to 31D are clearly visible from the front, as shown in Figure 4. Therefore, people other than the user can also enjoy watching the changes in the image 14 and the operation of the switches.
