DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a rotary flying toy having a disc body. This rotary flying toy has a medal-shaped disc body 1.
And the launching device 2 of the disc body 1.

The device body 2a of the launching device 2 is provided with a launching portion 3 of the disc body 1 and a grip 4.

The firing part 3 is formed with a substantially hemispherical recess 6 having an opening 5 capable of holding the disc body 1.
A fitting groove 7 capable of fitting and holding the disc body 1 is formed in the center of.

A ring 8 is fitted in the inner periphery of the opening 5, and a retaining projection 9 for pressing the peripheral surface of the disc body 1 is formed on the inner surface of the ring 8. Reference numeral 10 is a stopper for restricting the pushing of the disc body 1.

The groove width of the fitting groove 7 is formed to be approximately the same as the thickness of the disc body 1, and the depth of the groove is such that the disc body 1 is held when the disc body 1 is fitted. do it.

Further, a disk flipping member 11 for flipping the disk 1 held in the opening 5 or the fitting groove 7 while rotating the disk 1 forward is arranged in the firing section 3. As shown in FIG. 2, the repelling member 11 is rotatably provided on a support shaft 12 disposed on the grip 4 side of the opening 5, one repelling portion 13 and the other spring receiving portion. 14 is formed. Then, the repelling portion 13 is urged by a spring (biasing means) 15 in a direction (front) in which the disc body 1 is repelled.

The grip 4 has a push rod 16 for rotating the flipping member 11 counterclockwise in FIG. 2 against the spring force.
Are movably arranged in the lateral direction. The pushing rod 16 is biased rearward by a coil spring 17 so as to be retracted from the flipping member 11, and the tip end of the pushing rod 16 is pushed when pushed.
It is arranged so as to engage with the spring receiving portion 14 of.

Next, an operating lever 18 is attached to the grip 4.
Are rotatably arranged. One end of the operating lever 18 is pivotally attached to the support shaft 19, and the other end serves as a finger hook 20. Then, the finger-holding portion 20 is caused by the spring 21.
Are urged so as to project from the apparatus main body 2a. Further, the operation lever 18 is formed with a locking portion 22 that can be locked to the tip of the flipping member 11. The engaging portion 22 is formed so as to engage with the tip of the repelling portion 13 when the repelling member 11 rotates rearward against the spring 21.

Flat portions 23 are formed on the left and right sides and the upper portion of the firing portion 3. The flat portion 23 is placed on a play surface such as a floor for stabilization.

Next, the usage of the rotary flip toy having the above-described structure will be described. As shown in FIG. 3, first, the push rod 16 is pushed in to rotate the flip member 11 to lock the operating lever 18. The part 22 is locked. Then, the disc body 1 is fitted and held in the opening 5 of the projecting portion 3 of the toy body, and the device body 2a is placed so as to lie sideways on the floor surface. When the operation lever 18 is pulled in an appropriate direction as shown in FIG. 4, the operation lever 18 operates in a direction in which the locking portion 22 releases the locking, and therefore the flipping member 11 is rotated forward by the spring force of the spring 15. The flipping portion 13 moves and strikes the vicinity of the edge of the disc body 1. With this striking force, the disc body 1 is repelled from the opening 5, but the edge is struck, so that the disc body 1 is repelled while rotating around the diameter as shown by the arrow.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the disk body 1 is held in the fitting groove 7 of the concave portion 6 of the toy body, the apparatus body 2a is inverted and placed on the floor surface, and the same procedure as described above in FIG. When the operating lever 18 is actuated in this manner to eject the disc body 1, the disc body 1 moves around the center while rotating like a wheel.

Next, the disc body 1 may be as large as a medal or a coin and made of metal or synthetic resin as shown in FIG. 1, but as shown in FIG. A member 24 and a disc 25 fitted in the central portion of the member 24
You may comprise from. Inside the side member 24, 120
The elastic pieces 26 are formed at a pitch of 4 degrees, and the receiving pieces 28 are formed on the inner peripheral surface of the side member 24 so as to be offset from the elastic pieces 26 by 60 degrees.
Are formed to project inward. The elastic piece 26 is the side member 24.
It is an L-shaped member formed so as to project from the bottom of the notch 29 formed on the inner surface of the, and the tip thereof faces the front side. The receiving piece 28 is arranged and formed near the back side.

The disc 25 is preferably made of metal, and one surface thereof is preferably given an appropriate design.

The circular plate 25 may be strongly pressed from the front side of the side member 24 to be housed inside it as shown in FIG. The cross-sectional shape of the outer peripheral edge of the side member 24 may be an arc shape as shown in FIG. 8, a flat shape as shown in FIG. 9 (a), or the same figure (b).
It may be a Yamagata like, or as in (c) of the figure,
You may make it a peripheral edge incline to either one of the front and back. The disc body 1 may be made of synthetic resin or a simple metal.

If the side member 24 is made of synthetic resin, noise is reduced when rotating on the floor surface, so that no noise is generated. Also, unexpected movement can be obtained depending on the shape of the outer peripheral edge of the disc body 1. For example, the rotation of FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 (a) is stable, but the rotation of FIG. 8 (b) is unstable, and the rotation of FIG. 8 (c) tends to tilt to one side.

As described above, since one toy can perform two types of rotational skips, it has unprecedented fun, and the movement of the disc body 1 is not a simple straight movement but is desired by the skill of operation. Because it can be moved in the direction of, it is hard to get tired.

[0025]

According to the invention of claim 1, after the flipping member is locked to the rear side of the disc body against the biasing means, the disc body is fitted into the opening or the fitting groove of the firing portion. Is held and the operating lever is operated in a direction to release the locking, the disc body is springed out by the spring force. At this time, the rotating body moves while rotating forward. The rotation mode differs depending on whether it is held in the opening of the firing unit or in the fitting groove. Therefore, since one toy can perform two types of rotational skips, it has unprecedented fun, and since the movement of the disc body is not a simple straight movement, it is hard to get tired of.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the flat parts are formed on the left and right and the upper part of the launching part, the launching part can be laid sideways and stabilized, or can be inverted and stabilized. .

According to the third aspect of the present invention, since the peripheral edge of the disc body is formed so as to be inclined to either the front side or the back side, the disc body moves instable and an interesting effect can be obtained.

According to the invention of claim 4, the disc body 1
Is composed of a donut-shaped side member and a disc fitted in the central portion of the side member, so that the disc is made of metal, and various types of discs having various patterns on its surface are formed. By preparing it, various combinations are possible.
