BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating a configuration of a top toy system according to the present invention. The top toy system includes a combination of a top toy 1 and a stroboscope device 2 that irradiates the top toy 1 with light. When the top toy 1 is rotated, the figure body 3 disposed inside is exposed from an opening 4 formed on the upper surface. The stroboscope device 2 is a starter mechanism for rotating the top toy 1. 5 is provided.
[0012]
Reference numeral 6 denotes a rack belt for operating the starter mechanism 5.
[0013]
The top toy 1 is formed by integrally fixing a lid 12 to a base member 11 by screwing, and an attack ring 13 can be attached to and detached from the top toy 1.
[0014]
As shown in FIG. 2, the base member 11 has an inverted truncated cone shape, and a concave portion 14 is formed in the diameter direction from the upper surface to the bottom portion. An arc-shaped insertion opening 15 is formed, a storage recess 17 for storing an arc-shaped weight member 16 is formed, and small rollers 18 are arranged at both ends. The magnet 19 is fixed to the bottom surface.
[0015]
The figure body 3 imitating a monster or an anime character and a drive mechanism A for moving the figure body 3 up and down are arranged inside the concave portion 14.
[0016]
2 and 3 (a), the driving mechanism A slides outwardly by a centrifugal force caused by the rotation of the top toy 1 and the mounting plate 20 to which the figure body 3 is fixed. It mainly comprises two slide plates 21, 21 and two link members 22, 22 for connecting the placement plate 20 and the slide plate 21, and a rectangular mounting plate 20 is provided at both ends of the disc-shaped placement plate 20. A support plate 20a is formed, and a guide hole 23 penetrating vertically is formed in the support plate 20a, and a shaft hole 24 is formed in a side surface.
[0017]
A guide shaft 25 formed upright on the base member 11 is inserted into the guide hole 23 of the support plate 20a, and the mounting plate 20 is guided by the guide shaft 25 so that the mounting plate 20 can move up and down horizontally. . The mounting plate 20 is urged by a spring 26 attached to a guide shaft 25 so as to always descend. After the spring 26 is attached to the guide shaft 25, a retaining plate 27 is fixed to the tip of the guide shaft 25 by an appropriate means such as an adhesive or a small screw so that the spring 26 does not come off from the guide shaft 25. ing.
[0018]
A magnet 28 is fixed to the back surface of the mounting plate 20. When the mounting plate 20 is lowered, the mounting plate 20 attracts the mounting plate 20 downward by attracting the magnets 19 arranged at the bottom of the concave portion 14. . Since the mounting plate 20 is urged downward by the spring 26, the magnets 19 and 28 need not always be provided.
[0019]
The slide plate 21 is connected to the mounting plate 20 via a link member 22. The link member 22 has support pieces 22b formed to project forward from both ends of the connection portion 22a. A through hole 30 is formed in a side surface of the connection portion 22a, and a support hole 22b is formed in a longitudinal side surface of the support piece 22b. A long hole 31 is formed.
[0020]
A shaft 32 inserted into the long hole 31 of the support piece 22b is supported by the shaft hole 24 of the support plate 20a, and the link member 22 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 20 via the shaft 32.
[0021]
On the other hand, a shaft 34 that is supported by a bearing portion 33 that is formed to project from the bottom surface on the distal end side of the slide plate 21 is inserted into the through hole 30 of the connecting portion 22a. Are rotatably connected to the
[0022]
On the upper surface of the slide plate 21, an elliptical concave portion 36 and a circular concave portion 37 are continuously formed, and a disc-shaped magnet 38 is fitted and adhered to the circular concave portion 37. A magnet 50 attached to the back surface of the lid 12 to be described later corresponds thereto, and does not hinder the sliding movement of the slide plate 21.
[0023]
The slide plate 21 is slidable along a guide groove 40 formed on the upper edge of the inner wall in the longitudinal direction of the concave portion 14 of the base member 11. When the force is exerted, the slide plate 21 slides outward to open an opening 41 of the lid 12 to be described later and lift the link member 22, so that the mounting plate 20 is moved by the spring 26 through the link member 22. And the figure body 3 also rises (see FIG. 3B).
[0024]
When the rotation of the top toy 1 is stopped or at a low speed, the centrifugal force applied to the slide plate 21 disappears. The slide plate 21 is moved so that the end faces of the slide plate 21 are in contact with each other, and an opening 41 of the lid 12 described later is closed (see FIG. 3A).
[0025]
At this time, the magnet 38 and the magnet 50 are attracted to each other and the end faces of the slide plate 21 are brought into contact with each other to close the opening 41 of the lid 12, but it is not always necessary to use a magnet, and a spring may be used. I do not care. In this case, a weight member of the same shape may be attached to the concave portion 37 of the slide plate 21 instead of the magnet 38 so as to increase the weight of the entire slide plate 21 and increase the centrifugal force.
[0026]
The lid 12 is a plate member formed in a circular or polygonal shape with an opening at the center. The periphery of the opening 41 bulges upward, and a mounting portion 42 for mounting the attack ring 13 described later is formed. A mounting groove 43 is provided on the peripheral surface of the mounting member 42 and a notch portion 44 is formed. An arc-shaped insertion opening 47 for inserting a holding piece 72 of a starter mechanism 5 described later is formed outside the mounting portion 42. Is formed. As shown in FIG. 4, on the back surface of the lid 12, an elliptical concave portion 47 and a circular concave portion 48 are formed continuously with the opening portion 41 interposed therebetween. The magnet 38 attached to the slide plate 21 corresponds to the oval concave portion 47 so that the slide plate 21 does not hinder the movement of the magnet 38 when the slide plate 21 slides. I have.
[0027]
The lid 12 accommodates the drive mechanism A in a state in which the figure 3 is adhered and fixed to the base member 11 on the mounting plate 20 and the slide plate 21 is connected to the mounting plate 20 via the link member 22. Then, in a state where the lid 12 is overlaid on the base member 11, the screw 51 is screwed into a screw hole at a tip end of a column 52 formed on the base member 11, thereby fixing the lid 12 to the base member 11, and a top toy 1 can be formed.
[0028]
The attack ring 13 is used when attached to the top toy 1 to play against another top toy. The attack ring 13 is a disk-shaped member having a circular opening at the center, and has an opponent's opponent at regular intervals outward from the peripheral surface. An overhanging portion 55 for attacking the top toy is formed, and a pair of overhanging pieces 57, 57 are formed inside the opening 56 so as to face each other. The size is set to fit into 42. At the center of the inner edge of the overhanging piece 57, a locking piece 58 is formed so as to protrude. The distance between the locking pieces 58 is set to be substantially equal to the distance between the notches 44 of the mounting section 42. When the attack ring 13 is mounted on the top toy 1, the locking pieces 58 are mounted. When the opening 56 is fitted to the mounting portion 42 in accordance with the notch portion 44 of the portion 42 and then rotated in the circumferential direction, the locking piece 58 is fitted in the mounting groove of the mounting portion 42, Can be attached to toys.
[0029]
5 (a) and 5 (b) show a side view and a plan view of the stroboscope device 2, which is formed in a pistol shape having a grip portion 60 so that it can be held by one hand, and has a barrel. A strobe light 62 (a high-brightness red LED having a diameter of about 10 mm is used in the present invention) is disposed at the tip of the stylus 61. The strobe light 62 starts emitting light by operating a trigger-like switch 63. Has become. The light emission cycle of the strobe light 62 can be adjusted by turning a dial 64 provided at the rear.
[0030]
In the stroboscope device 2, a periodic waveform is generated by a function generator 65, and the drive circuit 66 of the strobe light 62 is driven by this periodic waveform to control the emission cycle of the strobe light 62. When turned to, the light emission cycle generated by the function generator 65 can be changed.
[0031]
By matching the light emission cycle with the rotation of the top toy 1, the top toy 1 can be viewed in a stationary state, and by slightly shifting the light emission cycle, the top toy 1 can be viewed in a slowly rotating state. Therefore, the entire shape of the figure body 3 can be seen. In FIG. 5A, reference numeral 67 denotes a power supply battery, and the power supply battery 67 can be replaced by opening a cover 68 at the bottom of the grip portion 60.
[0032]
Further, a starter mechanism 5 for rotating the top toy 1 is arranged in the stroboscope device 2. The starter mechanism 5 may be configured by a known starter mechanism. In the starter mechanism 5, a gear (not shown) meshes with a rack belt 6 inserted into an insertion hole 70 penetrating the right and left sides of the rack belt, and the gear is rotated by pulling the rack belt 6, and linked to this gear. When the rack belt 6 is completely pulled out from the insertion hole 70, a ratchet (not shown) bites into the gear and the rotation of the rotation plate 71 is instantaneously performed. It is designed to stop at
[0033]
The rotating plate 71 has two holding pieces 72 protrudingly formed to be inserted and held in the insertion opening 47 of the top toy 1. The top toy 1 held by the holding pieces 72 by rotating the rotating plate 71 with the rack belt 6. Can be rotated at a high speed, and when the rotating plate 71 stops suddenly, the top toy 1 which rotates by inertia separates from the holding piece 72 and can be rotated independently.
[0034]
According to the top toy system having the above configuration, after setting the top toy 1 to the stroboscope device 2 and sufficiently inserting the rack belt 6 into the insertion hole 70, the top toy 1 faces the ground surface. While pulling the rack belt 2 sideways, the rack belt 6 is pulled out vigorously.
[0035]
Since the rotating plate 71 rotates at high speed in conjunction with the pulling operation of the rack belt 6, the top toy 1 held by the holding pieces 72 provided on the rotating plate 71 rotates integrally with the rotating plate 71. When the rack belt 6 is completely pulled out from the insertion hole 70, the rotating plate 71 stops suddenly, so that the top toy 1 that rotates by inertia is separated from the holding piece 72 while rotating, falls on the mounting surface, and continues. Rotate.
[0036]
The top of the toy rotates at a high speed, and the magnetism of the magnet 38 and the magnet 50 is released by the centrifugal force, and as shown in FIG. 6A, the slide plate 21 starts to slide outward by the centrifugal force.
[0037]
When the slide plate 21 further slides to open the opening of the lid to some extent, the mounting plate 20 of the figure body 3 is lifted (see FIG. 6B). The slide plate 21 further slides, and the link member 22 hits the small roller 18 (see FIG. 6C). The link member 22 is flipped up by the small roller 18 and rotates further upward, so that the opening of the lid is completely closed. And the figure body 3 is exposed from the opened opening.
[0038]
In addition, the above-mentioned lid 12 has a mounting portion 42 for mounting the attack ring 13 on the periphery of the opening. However, when the top toy 1 is simply rotated without the attack ring 13 to play, A lid without the mounting portion 42 may be used. As a result, the surface of the lid becomes flat, so that the amount of exposure of the figure that rises with the rise of the mounting plate can be increased, and the figure can be easily recognized.
[0039]
In the state where the top toy 1 is rotating, as shown in FIG. 7A, when the tip of the strobe scope device 2 is directed toward the top toy 1 and the trigger 63 is operated, the strobe light 62 starts blinking. The light emission cycle is adjusted by turning the dial 64 so that the light emission cycle of the light 62 and the movement cycle (rotation cycle) of the top toy 1 match. When the rotation cycle of the top toy 1 matches the light emission cycle of the strobe light 62, as shown in FIG. 7B, the top view of the top toy 1 is exposed to the player because the top view of the top toy 1 appears to be stationary. The figure 3 can be correctly recognized.
[0040]
In the present invention, the figure body is housed inside the top toy, and the driving mechanism raises the figure body in association with the rotation of the top toy so that the figure body is exposed from the upper surface of the top toy. Prepare a lid without an opening without it, and fix the figure directly on the upper surface of this lid, or remove the figure placed inside the top of the top directly from the opening provided on the lid It does not matter.
[0041]
Alternatively, only the slide plate may be slid by the centrifugal force to open the opening of the lid, and the figure disposed inside may be viewed through the top of the top toy.
[0042]
In the present invention, the strobe light is constituted by a high-luminance red LED, but a black light (ultraviolet LED, so-called black light LED) may be used. In this case, a luminous paint may be applied to the figure body 3 or the figure body 3 may be formed of a luminous material. By irradiating the top toy with black light, only the figure body 3 can be seen in a stationary state and the figure body appears to emit light fantastically, so that a more interesting top toy system can be provided.
[0043]
【The invention's effect】
According to the invention of claim 2, the drive mechanism raises the figure in association with the rotation of the top toy and exposes the figure from the opening on the upper surface, so that the top toy is irradiated with light of the stroboscope device. As a result, the figure body exposed from the upper surface of the top toy can be visually recognized in a stationary state, and it is possible to enjoy the enjoyment that cannot be enjoyed with a simply rotating top toy.
[0044]
According to the third aspect of the invention, the slide member slides outward by the centrifugal force generated by rotating the top toy to open the upper opening and raise the mounting plate on which the figure body is mounted. Since the figure body is exposed from the top surface, the figure body contained inside can not be recognized in the stopped state, and it can be recognized by the stroboscope device by rotating, so the secrecy of the top toy is secured, Differentiation from a simply rotating top toy can be achieved.
[0045]
According to the invention of claim 4, by irradiating the top toy with black light, only the figure body can be seen in a stationary state, and the figure body can be seen to emit light in a fantastic manner. Can be.
[0046]
According to the invention of claim 5, by providing the starter mechanism of the top toy in the stroboscope device, the top toy can be rotated without preparing a separate starter device, and a normal top toy can be rotated by the stroboscope device. It can also be rotated.
