Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a picture-matching toy made of a plurality of polyhedrons, which can be enjoyed especially in the bathroom.

[Conventional technology]

Picture-matching toys include complex ones like jigsaw puzzles, as well as relatively simple ones.
These toys can contribute to the promotion of healthy intellectual development in young children, but conventional picture-matching toys of this type include those that have a two-dimensional structure and emphasize puzzle-like elements, such as group pictures, and those that emphasize puzzle-like elements. There are various types, such as those that are structured three-dimensionally like building blocks and emphasize play elements.

[The problem that the idea aims to solve]

However, all of the conventional picture-matching toys mentioned above are originally intended only for picture-matching games, and are intended only for playing indoors (within a room), such as on a table or floor. Ta.

The purpose of this invention is to provide a picture-matching toy that allows you to not only play with picture matching in a normal room, but also enjoy so-called bath play or water play in the bathroom while taking a bath. It is something to do.

[Means to solve the problem]

The present invention consists of a plurality of polyhedrons 1 which are made of foamed resin and whose surfaces can be closely attached in a wet state, and each of the polyhedrons 1 has a different partial pattern 2 formed on at least one surface, and When one side of the polyhedron 1 and the other adjacent side are aligned, the partial patterns 2 formed on one side of each polyhedron 1 are combined to form one pattern as a whole. The present invention is a picture-matching toy made to be configured to achieve the above-mentioned purpose.

[Effect]

Each polyhedron made of foamed resin is extremely light, so when its flat surface gets wet with water or hot water, the water film that forms on the surface temporarily acts like an adhesive, causing the polyhedrons to stick together. If the polyhedron or the polyhedron is closely attached to a flat surface such as a tile surface, the adhesive state can be easily maintained.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the picture-matching toy shop according to the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of the present invention. The plurality of polyhedrons 1 are made of foamed resin and can be brought into close contact with each other when their surfaces are wet. The foamed resin is preferably closed-celled, and foamed polyethylene resin is most preferably used.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the polyhedrons 1 have a cubic shape, and four polyhedrons constitute a set. Each side of the cube has a different partial pattern 2,
By combining these four cubes and aligning the other surfaces adjacent to the surface on which the partial design 2 is applied (top surface in the figure) to each other and aligning them, the surfaces adjacent to the matching surface 3 that are aligned and aligned to each other are created. On the surface on which the partial patterns 2 are applied (the top surface in the figure), the partial patterns 2 are gathered together to complete one cohesive pattern as a whole. In the case of this embodiment, by applying partial designs to all sides of the cube, it is possible to enjoy six ways of matching pictures.

The partial design 2 may be formed by adhering water-resistant thin paper or plastic film to the polyhedron 1, but it may also be printed directly on the polyhedron to form a coating.

Note that the polyhedron constituting the present invention includes cylinders, hemispherical shapes, etc., and in short, it is sufficient that the polyhedron has at least one flat matching surface. That is, the shape and number of polyhedrons, the method of combining partial designs, etc. are not limited to the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, but can be changed as appropriate. For example, various variations can be applied as shown in FIGS. 2, 3, and 4.

[Effect of idea]

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it achieves the effects described below.

In addition to playing with pictures indoors, children can also enjoy playing in the water and playing in the bathroom. In other words, you can make polyhedrons stick together or separate them by soaking them in water or hot water, and you can also play with them by floating them in bath water or by attaching them to tiles, window glass, etc., making it easy to match pictures. In addition, there is more to it than just matching pictures, which can greatly arouse the interest of young children and get them interested in bathing. In particular, parents and children can safely practice intellectual play together while taking a bath, which is a place for skinship between parents and children.It is effective as a picture-matching toy in promoting healthy intellectual and emotional development. It's huge.

Moreover, even when playing indoors, there is almost no risk of damage, and you can enjoy picture matching extremely safely without fear of injury.

[Brief explanation of the drawing]

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] It is made of a plurality of polyhedrons 1 made of foamed resin and whose surfaces can be closely attached in a wet state, and each of the polyhedrons 1 has a different partial pattern 2 on at least one side.
is formed, and when one side of each of the polyhedrons 1 and the other adjacent side of each of the polyhedrons are brought into contact and aligned, the partial patterns 2 formed on one side of each of the polyhedrons 1 are combined. A picture-matching toy that is characterized by the fact that it consists of a single pattern as a whole.
