Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a manufactured article for play entertainment.
  • Such toys in general, have articulated limbs which, in some cases, can be taken to pieces and fitted back together again from/on the trunk so as to obtain different end solutions.
  • the limbs (or the parts of the toy in general) can be associated with the trunk by inserting in between fitting means made, for example, of an appendix protruding from the limb and which can be fitted in a complementary seat on the trunk to define an articulated joint.
  • the assembly of the toys described above is not always simple and convenient, and in any case requires applying a certain pressure to insert the appendix inside the respective seat.
  • the metal frame of the trunk features one or more magnets arranged opposite respective openings on the shell.
  • the frame of the limbs has at least one end featuring a metal end piece, normally a sphere or semi-sphere, which can be inserted in one of the above openings and can be coupled in a removable way with the magnet.
  • a metal end piece normally a sphere or semi-sphere
  • the special configuration of the metal end piece and magnet permits the articulation of the limbs with respect to the trunk.
  • the main aim of this invention is to make available a manufactured article for play entertainment that permits overcoming the above drawbacks using a simple, rational and low-cost solution.
  • this manufactured article for play entertainment comprising at least a pair of shaped bodies featuring respective shells and which can be associated and articulated with each other by inserting temporary connection means in between, characterized in that said temporary connection means comprise at least one pair of permanent magnets housed in respective seats defined on said shells and which can be coupled together by magnetic attraction
  • Embodiments of the manufactured article 1 able to reproduce different shapes cannot however be ruled out.
  • the manufactured article 1 comprises a plurality of shaped bodies 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f, 2g, 2h, 2i, 21 and 2m, featuring respective shells 3 in polymeric material and which can be associated by placing temporary connection means in between.
  • each of the shells 3 in polymeric material is made in a single body.
  • the shaped body 2a is configured to reproduce a head
  • the shaped body 2b is configured to reproduce a trunk
  • the shaped body 2c is configured to reproduce a pelvis
  • the shaped body 2d is configured to reproduce an upper limb
  • the shaped body 2e is configured to reproduce an arm
  • the shaped body 2f is configured to reproduce a forearm
  • the shaped body 2g is configured to reproduce a hand
  • the shaped body 2h is configured to reproduce a lower limb
  • the shaped body 2i is configured to reproduce a thigh
  • the shaped body 21 is configured to reproduce a leg
  • the shaped body 2m is configured to reproduce a foot.
  • the temporary connection means comprise a plurality of permanent magnets 4 housed in their respective seats inside the shells 3 which can be coupled together by magnetic attraction.
  • Each of the shells 3 can comprise just one or a plurality of magnets 4, depending on the anatomic part reproduced and on the envisaged joints.
  • each of the permanent magnets 4 is positioned by a relevant opening 5 defined on the shells 3 and can be provided with a surface protruding from the opening 5.
  • the protruding surface of the magnets 4 can have a substantially round or flat conformation or of other type.
  • the trunk 2b features four permanent magnets 4, arranged facing respective openings 5, and which can be coupled in magnetic attraction with respective permanent magnets 4 defined on the upper limb 2d, on the arm 2e, on the pelvis 2c and on the head 2a.
  • the pelvis 2c features three permanent magnets 4 that can be coupled, respectively, to a permanent magnet 4, not shown in the illustration and defined on the trunk 2d, to a permanent magnet 4 on the lower limb 2b, and to a permanent magnet on the thigh 2i.
  • the ends of the forearm 2f feature respective permanent magnets 4 that can be coupled, respectively, with a second permanent magnet 4 on the arm 2e and with a permanent magnet 4 on the hand 2g.
  • the ends of the leg 21 feature respective permanent magnets 4 that can be coupled, respectively, with a second permanent magnet 4 on the thigh 2i and with a permanent magnet 4 on the foot 2m.
  • the manufacture of the manufactured article 1 comprises, for each of the shaped bodies 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e, 2f, 2g, 2h, 2i, 2l and 2m described above, a first phase that consists in arranging at least one permanent magnet 4 inside a mould.
  • the number and arrangement of the permanent magnets 4 inside the mould and the configuration of the mould itself depend on the anatomical shape to be reproduced.
  • the mould is filled with a polymeric material in fluid state and the solidification of such material inside the mould results in the production, in a single body, of the shells 3 featuring the relative magnets 4.
  • shells made of polymeric material permits considerably reducing the total weight of the manufactured article.
  • Another advantage associated with the permanent magnets is the easy assembly and disassembly of two or more shaped bodies.
  • Another advantage is the resistance to wear of the manufactured article even in the case of repeated assembly and disassembly operations.
