Definitions
- This invention relates generally to toy figures and particularly to those having a transformable characteristic .
- Plush toy figures are well known and extremely popular in the toy art. This popularity has existed for many years and has proven to be broadly based in a substantial age range in both male and female children. Notsurprisingly, practitioner's in the toy arts have responded to this popularity by providing a variety of toy figures having plush characteristics. As a result, plush toy figures have been provided which resemble animals, humans, fanciful characters and monsters, aliens, cartoon characters and the like. While the variety of plush toy figures is seemingly endless, virtually all plush toy figures include the same basic elements or components. These basic elements or components include a soft flexible outer skin usually formed of a cloth fabric or the like and often supporting a simulated fur or velvet-type outer texture.
- the interior of the soft flexible outer skin is filled or stuffed with a soft resilient material such as foam rubber or foam plastic.
- a soft resilient material such as foam rubber or foam plastic.
- Other typical filler materials include fiber padding or other filler materials such as particulate materials or the like.
- Many plush toy figures include additional features such as sound producing circuits supported within the toy figure interior. Sound circuits are well known in their fabrication and have included various electrical and electronic devices through the years. Presently, most sound circuits within toy figures are fabricated using well known integrated circuit sound systems supported upon printed circuit boards and comprising and integrated circuit chip and associated memory together with an audio output circuit and an audio transducer such as a speaker or piezoelectric device. In many plush toy figures having sound circuits supported therein, a plurality of activating switches are supported at selected portions of the body such as squeeze or pressure operated switches disposed in the hands or feet.
- Transformable toy figures derive there name from their capability of being configured in either of two alternate configurations by simply manipulating the parts of the toy figure. For the most part, this transformable characteristic is achieved by providing two cloth or fabric bodies joined at a common aperture therebetween. Each of the cloth or fabric bodies may be forced into the remaining body through the common aperture to provide at least a portion of the filler or stuffing material thereof.
- U.S. Patent 4,614,505 issued to Schneider et al sets forth a TRANSFORMABLE TOY FIGURE which is progressively transformable into different configurations.
- the figures have a body portion comprising a mass of compliant fill material with a fabric cover there over.
- a fabric segment is secured to the body portion and forms a pocket which is resiliently deformable to allow parts of the body portion and its material to be forced through the pocket as the toy is changed from one configuration to another .
- U.S. Patent 4,842,565 issued to VonPhilp, Sr. sets forth a REVERSIBLE STUFFED DOLL formed of two fabric sections with a cavity containing filling material between them. Each fabric section has an outer facing surface having accent devices giving a specific appearance to each. An additional fabric section is provided to conceal one of the two appearances giving the doll alternative appearances.
- U.S. Patent 4,413,442 issued to McSweeney sets forth a THREE DIMENSIONAL TRANSFORMABLE TOY having juxtaposed first and second surfaces which contain a discontinuity therethrough. A plurality of figure forming elements are secured to one surface allowing the figure to be transformable from a first' configuration to a second configuration or the reverse.
- U.S. Patent 4,695,264 issued to McLeod, Jr. sets forth a CONVERTIBLE STUFFED FIGURE having two interconnected reversible figures. The two figures are joined to one another and include separate internal cavities each having a capasity to hold or contain the other figure. The figures are joined to one another along a common opening.
- U.S. Patent 4,781,648 issued to Garfinkel sets forth a REVERSIBLE PLUSH TOY having a pair of substantially equal size fabric skin peripherally secured and configured to selectively expose each skin while enclosing the remaining skin.
- Each skin includes multiple appendages associated therewith and aligned with the appendages associated with the remaining skin.
- the appendages of each aligned set of appendages are invertible one within the other for an outward projection of an appendage associated with an exposed skin.
- U.S. Patent 5 , 649 , 848 issued to Clark sets forth a REVERSIBLE PLUSH TOY having two designs such as two animal shapes. The two designs turn inside out into , each other by consuming and regurgitating each other through their wide mouths which they share.
- U.S. Patent 4,404,689 issued to DeWan sets forth a FLEXIBLE CONTAINER HAVING A PREDETERMINED THREE DIMENSIONAL SHAPE which represents the reproduction of a desired item.

- toy figure 10 includes an animal skin 11 formed of a flexible fabric or cloth material which includes a torso 13, a head 12 and a tail 14.
- Animal skin 11 further includes a belly portion 19 and a pair of front legs or arms 15 and 16.
- toy figure 10 includes a plurality of pressure-responsive switches 20, 21 and 22 supported upon the interior surface of animal skin 11 beneath belly 19 and arms 16 and 15 respectively.
- toy figure 10 provides a suitable amusing plush toy figure for conventional play.
- switches 20, 21 and 22 cause internal sound unit 23 (seen in Figure 4) to produce sounds characteristic of a dinosaur "roar” or “screech” or other suitable animal sound whether real or fanciful.
- Toy figure 10 is transformable from the animal- like configuration shown in Figure 1 to an egg-shaped configuration shown in Figure 6.
- the transfor ability of toy figure 10 is carried forward largely in accordance with conventional fabrication techniques, utilizing a pair of outer skins joined along a common aperture. Accordingly, and as is best seen in Figure 3, animal skin 11 is packed or "stuffed” with an eggshell skin 50 to provide a soft padded body when toy figure 10 is in the animal-like configuration shown in Figure 1.
- FIG 2 sets forth a rear perspective view of toy figure 10 in the animal-like configuration at the initiation of transformation of the animal-like configuration of Figure 1 to the egg resembling configuration shown in Figure 6.
- toy figure 10 includes an animal skin 11 having a torso 13 , a plurality of legs such as leg 17, a tail 14, a front leg or arm 15 and a head 12.
- Animal skin 11 further supports a zipper 40 having a zipper tab 41 and a covering zipper flap 42.
- Flap 42 is formed of a generally loose fabric material preferably matching animal skin 11 and forms the primary function of covering the exposed portion zipper 40.
- zipper 40 is closed and toy figure 10 is configured in its animal-like configuration.
- the transformation of toy figure 10 from the animal-like configuration of Figure 2 to the egg-like configuration of Figure 6 is initiated by folding zipper flap 42 away from zipper 40 and grasping tab 41 opening zipper 40.
- Figure 3 sets forth a rear perspective view of toy figure 10 following the opening of zipper 40. More specifically, and as is set forth above, toy figure 10 includes an animal skin 11 defining a torso 13, a head 12, a tail 14, a leg 17, and an arm 15. As is also described above, animal skin 11 supports a zipper 40 having a movable zipper tab 41 and a zipper flap 42.
- Eggshell skin 50 is preferably formed of a flexible fabric or cloth material and as is better seen in Figure 4, is joined to animal skin 11 along a common aperture 45. The transformation of toy figure 10 continues once zipper 40 is opened as the user reaches into animal skin 11 and withdraws eggshell skin 50 to its full extent resulting in the configuration shown in Figure 4.
- Figure 4 sets forth a partially sectioned perspective view of toy figure 10 at an intermediate point in the transformation process. At this intermediate point, both animal skins (animal skin 11 and eggshell skin 50) are fully exposed and are joined along a common aperture 45.
- animal skin 11 includes a torso 13 having an aperture 45 formed therein.
- Animal skin 11 further includes a head 12, a tail 14, a pair of legs 17 and 18, a pair of arms 15 and 16 and a belly portion 19.
- arms 15 and 16 support pressure-responsive switches 22 and 21 respectively while belly portion 19 supports pressure-responsive switch 20.

- pressure-responsive switches 20, 21 and 22 are supported entirely within animal skin 11 and are excluded from eggshell skin 50. Conversely, and in continued further accordance with an important aspect of the present invention, pressure-responsive switches 25, 26 and 27 are supported within the interior surface of eggshell skin 50 to the exclusion of animal skin 11. Switch 20, 21 and 22 are coupled to sound unit 23 by a plurality of connecting wires
- switches 25, 26 and 27 are coupled to sound unit 23 by a plurality of connecting wires 35, 36 and 37.
- switches 20, 21 and 22 are exposed and capable of actuation only when toy figure 10 is configured in the animal-like configuration of Figure 1 while switches 25, .26 and 27 are buried within the interior packing which eggshell skin 50 provides in the animal-like configuration.
- switches 25, 26 and 27 are exposed to pressure actuation when toy figure 10 is configured in the egg-like configuration shown in Figure 6 to the exclusion of switches 20, 21 and 22 which are packed within the interior of eggshell skin 50 in the egg-like • configuration and as a result are isolated pressure actuation.
- FIG. 5 sets forth a perspective view of toy figure 10 at the final stage of transformation.
- toy figure 10 includes an animal skin 11 having a head 12, a torso 13, a tail 14, arms 15 and 16 together with legs 17 and 18.
- Toy figure 10 further includes an eggshell skin 50 joined to animal skin 11 at a common aperture 45.
- a zipper 40 and a flap 42 provide closure of common aperture 45.
- animal skin 11 is being folded and compacted to facilitate its insertion into eggshell skin 50 through common aperture 45.
- This method of transformation of a plush figure is in accordance with a well known fabrication. Once animal skin 11 has been forced into the interior of eggshell skin 50, it provides a suitable fill or padding for toy figure 10 in the egg-like configuration shown in Figure 6. The transformation is completed once animal skin 11 has been inserted into eggshell skin 50 by the closure of zipper 40.
- FIG. 6 sets forth a perspective view of toy figure 10 in the alternate egg shaped configuration.
- eggshell skin 50 surrounds and encloses animal skin 11 (seen in Figure 5) while flap 42 covers zipper 40 to complete the eggshell closure.
- the resulting configuration provides an egg shaped object which is relatively soft and pliable.
- a plurality of pressure-responsive switches 25, 26 and 27 are supported within toy figure 10 on the interior surface of eggshell skin 50.
- a pocket 28 formed of a fabric material or other suitable material is secured to the interior surface of eggshell skin 50 to enclose and support pressure- responsive switch 25. While not seen in Figure 6, it will be understood that switches 26 and 27 are similarly supported within the interior of eggshell skin 50.
- sound unit 23 responds to pressure actuation of any of switches 25 through 27 by producing a sound different in character from that provided when any of switches 20 through 22 is actuated seen in Figure 1) .
- a heartbeat-like sound has been selected to be provided when toy figure 10 is in the configuration shown in Figure 6 in response to actuation of any of switches 25 through 27.
- other alternative sounds suitably appropriate to the egg shape of toy figure 10 in the configuration of Figure 6 may be selected. However, it has been found particularly amusing to provide a heartbeat sound in the egg shaped configuration of the present invention toy figure.
- toy figure 10 may be returned to the animal-like configuration of Figure 1 by reversing the above described transformation process. It will be equally apparent to those skilled in the art that at the conclusion of this reverse transformation to the configuration of Figure 1, switches 25 through 27 will be isolated within the interior of animal skin 11 and thus protected against actuation by the user while switches 20 through 22 will again be restored to accessibility and user actuation.
- toy figure 10 produces one set of audible responses or sounds in the animal-like configuration and a different set of audible responses and sounds when configured in the egg shaped configuration. In this manner, the character of the transformable toy figure of the present invention is altered in a suitable manner of sound output depending upon the configuration of the transformable toy figure.

It will be recalled from the above descriptions that switches 20, 21 and 22 are exposed and actuated in the animal-like configuration of Figure 1 while switches 25, 26 and 27 are exposed for actuation in the egg-like configuration of Figure 6.
- Sound circuit 64 is fabricated in accordance with conventional fabrication techniques and utilizes an internal memory 67 having stored audio data and a microprocessor (within sound circuit integrated circuit 65) having a stored instruction set to provide sound signal output. It will be well understood by those skilled in the art that virtually any standard sound circuit may be utilized in place of sound circuit 64.
- the essential characteristic of sound circuit 64 is the provision of appropriate audio signals to transducer 63 for audiblizing a predetermined sound message or sound combination each time a switch is actuated by pressing.
- a combination of a microprocessor, read only memory, audio synthesizer, an audio output amplifier suitable for the functioning of sound circuit 64 is formed as a single integrated circuit chip device manufactured by Texas Instruments, Inc. under the device name TMS 50C44.
- TMS 50C44 device manufactured by Texas Instruments, Inc.
- a variety of standard integrated circuit devices may be utilized for sound circuit 64.
- sound circuit 65 and memory 67 cooperate to cause sound circuit device 65 to respond to the actuation of any one of switches 20 through 22 to retrieve a first set of sound data from memory 67 and convert it to appropriate output format to drive audio output device 68.
- sound circuit integrated circuit 65 will be understood to include appropriate digital to analog conversion apparatus whereby audio output device 68 drives speaker 63 with audio signals of an analog character.
- integrated circuit 65 is pre-programmed to respond to the activation of any one of switches 25 through 27 to select a different set of audio data from memory 67 and convert it to appropriate analog format to cause audio output device 68 to drive transducer 63 with a different set of audio data thereby producing a different set of sounds.
- the transformable toy figure shown and described above is alternately configurable in either an animal-like configuration or an egg-like configuration.
- the internal sound unit within the figure is caused to operate to produce a first set of sounds in the animal-like configuration and a second differing set of sounds in the egg-like configuration. This has been found to add considerable amusement and realism to the toy figure. This has also been found to greatly enhance the transformation of the transformable figure due to the differing sounds produced in each configuration.
