JP-A-10-165656

  Here, as an audio output play equipment in recent years, there is a demand for an educational device that can promote infants' intellectual development through thinking or expressing. In such a demand, the above-mentioned audio output playground equipment is not just a way to learn “care-giving”, but rather a training for a young child who is growing up with a lifestyle habitually worn by a habit. There is a particular need to be able to train naturally during play.

  Then, this invention makes it a subject to provide the audio | voice output playground equipment which can make an infant train a lifestyle habit naturally in play.

  In order to solve the above problems, a sound output playground equipment according to the present invention is a sound output playground equipment for lifestyle training used when an infant plays with a hugging doll. A switch unit configured to operate in response to an infant's play operation related to lifestyle habits, a sound output unit that is provided in the playground equipment main body and outputs a sound according to the operation of the switch unit, Is provided. “Hugging doll” means, for example, a doll (made in the shape of a human being) that a 2 to 3 year old infant (especially a girl) holds and takes care of as a parent. Has the same balance for the infant as the balance between the parent and the baby.

  In the audio output play equipment of the present invention, when an infant plays with a hugging doll, audio is output from the audio output unit corresponding to the play operation of the infant related to lifestyle. Therefore, toddlers can feel as if they are having a conversation with a hugging doll, and can deeply deepen skinship with the hugging doll. It is possible to naturally imagine the lifestyles that should be played, not as training but in play. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to train an infant with a lifestyle habit naturally during play.

  Further, the sound output playground equipment for bedtime training, the playground equipment main body part may be a pillow-type playground equipment on which the head of the hugging doll is placed, and the switch part may be a sound switch. In this case, since the infant can play with the care of the hugging doll (hereinafter referred to as “sleeping action”) and the switch part is a sound switch, the sound generated in response to the action of the infant to perform the sleeping action is provided. Thus, the sound can be output by the sound output unit. Thereby, it becomes possible to let the infant train naturally in the play through the hugging doll so that the parent has difficulty getting the infant to learn.

  The audio output unit further includes a main switch, and the audio output unit does not turn on when the first predetermined time has elapsed since the main switch was turned on or when the sound switch is on for a second predetermined time shorter than the first predetermined time. When the sleep sound is output, the sleep mode may be set. In this case, the voice output unit outputs a sleep sound under a predetermined condition related to going to sleep, and then enters the sleep mode, and no voice is output. Therefore, the child is illusioned that the hugging doll has gone to sleep and prompts the infant to go to bed. be able to.

  The voice output unit outputs a start voice that prompts the user to go to bed when the sound switch is activated for the first time after the main switch is turned on, and when the sound switch is activated after the start voice is output, A plurality of different sounds may be output in a pseudo random pattern. In this case, since the voice output unit first outputs a start voice that prompts the user to go to bed, the infant can recognize the start of the sleeping action. In addition, since a plurality of sounds are output in a pseudo-random pattern thereafter, it is possible to let the infant lie down without getting bored.

  Moreover, the pillow-type playground equipment has a cover part that constitutes the outer periphery thereof, and the cover part includes an outer sheet material arranged outside the pillow-type playground equipment, and an inner sheet material arranged inside the pillow-type playground equipment. And a plurality of intermediate sheet materials laminated between the outer sheet material and the inner sheet material, and the plurality of intermediate sheet materials emit sound at least when deformed, and at the outer ends at both ends in the width direction of the cover portion. It may be fixed to the sheet material and the inner sheet material. In this case, the plurality of intermediate sheet materials included in the cover portion of the pillow-type playground equipment can naturally emit a sound corresponding to the action of the infant relating to the sleeping action. Thereby, a sound switch can be operated effectively according to the lying-down action, and sound can be output from the sound output unit. Further, since the plurality of intermediate sheet materials are fixed to the outer sheet material and the inner sheet material at both ends in the width direction of the cover portion, it is possible to prevent the intermediate sheet material from shifting.

  ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, it becomes possible to make an infant train a lifestyle habit naturally in play.

  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, the same or equivalent elements will be denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description will be omitted. The terms “upper” and “lower” correspond to the vertical direction of the drawing and are for convenience.

  As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the audio output playground equipment 1 of this embodiment is for educational use used when the infant C plays with the hugging doll P, and the lifestyle habits that the infant C should wear. Is a sound output playground equipment for lifestyle training for image training. This sound output play equipment 1 outputs sound corresponding to a play operation related to the lifestyle habit of the infant C using the hugging doll P, and naturally gives an appropriate image of the lifestyle habit to the infant C. The audio output playground equipment 1 here is for bedtime training provided with a pillow-type playground equipment 2 on which the head of the doll P is placed as a playground equipment main body used together with the doll P.

  The audio output play equipment 1 is used as a pillow for the hugging doll P when the infant C sleeps with the hugging doll P. In general, parents often struggle to put infant C to bed, especially after breastfeeding, an act that was customarily performed before going to bed after drinking breast milk or milk (so-called sleep ritual) Therefore, it is difficult for the infant C to go into the futon, or even if it goes into the futon, it is difficult to go to bed. The audio output playground equipment 1 can be used as one item for such a sleep ritual after breastfeeding.

  “Hugging doll” is a doll (made in the shape of a human being) whose target infant is an infant C (especially a girl) 2 to 3 years old. To do. That is, the hugging doll P is assumed to be a younger sister or younger brother (baby) for the infant C. The size of the hugging doll P is about 30 cm with respect to the infant C having the same size balance as the size balance between the parent and the baby. For example, as the doll P, Popo-chan (trade name, manufactured by People Co., Ltd., registered trademark) is used.

  The audio output playground equipment 1 includes a pillow-type playground equipment 2, a sound switch (switch unit) 3, a speaker 4, a main switch 5, a memory 6, and a control unit 7. Each of the sound switch 3, the speaker 4, the main switch 5, and the memory 6 is electrically connected to the control unit 7.

  The pillow-type playground equipment 2 is a playground equipment main body of the audio output playground equipment 1. The sound switch 3 is provided on the pillow-type playground equipment 2 and operates in response to the play operation of the infant C related to lifestyle. The sensation switch 3 is normally inactivated (off), and is activated (on) when a sound having a strength (sound pressure level) equal to or higher than a threshold is sensed, indicating the activated state. The signal is output to the control unit 7. The speaker 4 is provided in the pillow-type playground equipment 2 and amplifies and outputs a sound as an IC sound based on a signal output from the control unit 7 in response to the operation of the sound switch 3.

  The main switch 5 is provided in the pillow-type playground equipment 2 and switches the sound output playground equipment 1 on and off. The main switch 5 is, for example, a slide switch that manually slides a knob to switch electrical contacts. In addition, the button switch which switches an electrical contact by pressing a button manually may be sufficient. The memory 6 stores in advance a plurality of audio data relating to the audio to be output. The voices to be output are, for example, a start voice, request voices A to D, and an end voice, which will be described later. For example, a semiconductor memory device is used as the memory 6.

  The control unit 7 performs overall control of the operation of the audio output playground equipment 1. Specifically, when a signal is input from the sensation switch 3, the control unit 7 calls appropriate sound data from the memory 6, and outputs a signal to the speaker 4 to output sound. For example, an MPU (Micro Processing Unit) is used as the control unit 7. The sound switch 3, the speaker 4, the main switch 5, the memory 6, and the control unit 7 are provided in the pillow-type play equipment 2 as the audio unit 10. The speaker 4, the memory 6, and the control unit 7 constitute the audio output unit 8.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the audio unit 10 has a rectangular parallelepiped outer shape with rounded corners for safety, and the approximate outer dimensions are, for example, 45 mm in length, 65 mm in width, and 25 mm in thickness. . The audio unit 10 includes a housing 11, and the sound switch 3, the speaker 4, the memory 6, and the control unit 7 are accommodated in the housing 11.

  On the surface 11 a of the housing 11, a plurality of sound generation slits 12 are formed at positions corresponding to the speakers 4 to make it easier to emit sound from the speakers 4 to the outside of the housing 11. In addition, a plurality of sound collection slits 13 are formed on the upper surface 11 b of the housing 11 at positions corresponding to the sound switch 3 so that sound outside the housing 11 can be easily transmitted to the sound switch 3. The main switch 5 is provided so that a knob can slide in a long hole provided in the lower part of the surface 11 a of the housing 11.

  In the audio unit 10, a pair of parallel plate portions 14 are erected on both end portions of the upper surface 11 b of the housing 11. For example, the ST standard, which is a safety standard for toys, requires that the toy does not pass through a cylinder (so-called rattle gauge) of a predetermined size in order to prevent accidental ingestion of the toy. Part 14 can satisfy this criterion.

  As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the pillow-type playground equipment 2 has a pillow-like outer shape, and the outline outer dimensions thereof are, for example, 100 mm long, 150 mm wide, and 30 mm thick. The pillow-type playground equipment 2 has the cover part 20 which comprises the outer periphery. The cover unit 20 is laminated between the outer sheet material 25 disposed outside the pillow-type playground equipment 2, the inner sheet material 28 disposed inside the pillow-type playground equipment 2, and the outer sheet material 25 and the inner sheet material 28. And a plurality of intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27.

  The material, shape, and the like of the outer sheet material 25 and the inner sheet material 28 are not particularly limited. For example, a cloth made of woven fabric or non-woven fabric can be used. As the outer sheet material 25 and the inner sheet material 28, for example, a French pile fabric, a felt fabric, or the like may be used so that the infant C is easily familiar with the pillow-type playground equipment 2. Moreover, you may print on the outer surface of the outer side sheet material 25 the design which the infant C is familiar.

  The plurality of intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27 are firm sheets that emit a sound at least when deformed. For example, the intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27 emit a sound by being bent or rubbing against the holding doll P. The material and shape of the intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27 are not particularly limited. For example, a resin sheet, glassine paper, paraffin paper, or the like can be used. A resin sheet is preferable in terms of strength and water resistance (washing resistance). In addition, as a raw material of a resin sheet, PET etc. are mentioned, for example. The crisp sound emitted by the PET sheet is preferable because it is close to the womb sound and is easy to get close to children. Here, two intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27 are provided, but one or three or more sheets may be provided in order to make sound more easily generated.

  When manufacturing the cover portion 20, first, the outer sheet material 25, the intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27, and the inner sheet material 28 which are rectangular sheets having the same shape are laminated in this order, and along the outer edge of the rectangular shape. The laminated body 21 is formed by sewing at the first sewing portion 23. And this laminated body 21 is folded in a flat cylinder shape so that the edge parts 21a and 21b of a longitudinal direction may overlap, and the both ends of the said laminated body 21 are sewn by the 2nd sewing part 24. FIG. As a result, a flat bag-shaped laminated body 21 in which both end portions 20 a and 20 b in the width direction are closed is obtained as the cover portion 20.

  The plurality of intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27 are fixed to the outer sheet material 25 and the inner sheet material 28 along the entire circumference of the rectangular outer edge of the laminated body 21 by the first sewing portion 23, and the second The sewing part 24 is fixed to the outer sheet material 25 and the inner sheet material 28 at both ends 20 a and 20 b in the width direction of the cover part 20. That is, the first sewing portion 23 and the second sewing portion 24 prevent the intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27 from being displaced. The fixing of the intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27 is not limited to sewing, and may be performed by bonding.

  The cover unit 20 includes a front surface 20c that is a surface on which the head of the doll P is placed and a back surface 20d that is a surface opposite to the side on which the head of the doll P is placed. In the center of the back surface 20d, an opening 22 is formed for communicating the inside and outside of the cover portion 20. The opening 22 is normally closed by overlapping the end portions 21a and 21b of the laminated body 21. A fixing member such as a hook-and-loop fastener may be used for the end portions 21a and 21b in order to make the opening portion 22 difficult to open during use.

  The audio unit 10 is accommodated inside the cover unit 20. Since the plurality of intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27 are arranged in the vicinity of the sensation switch 3, sound can be generated in the vicinity of the sensation switch 3, so that the threshold for turning on the sensation switch 3 is kept low. It is possible to prevent the sound output unit 8 from outputting sound in response to sounds not related to the surroundings.

  At this time, the audio unit 10 may be accommodated in such a direction that the surface 11a of the housing 11 is in contact with the surface 20c of the cover part 20, or may be accommodated in a direction in which the surface 11a is in contact with the back surface 20d of the cover part 20. Good. Since the sound generation slit 12 is formed on the surface 11a, the volume of sound heard from the sound output playground equipment 1 during use (hereinafter simply referred to as volume) varies depending on the direction of the surface 11a. That is, in the former case, the direction in which the speaker 4 outputs the sound faces the head side of the doll P, so that the volume increases. In the latter case, the direction in which the speaker 4 outputs the sound is that of the doll P. Since it faces away from the head, the sound is confined and the volume is reduced.

  Next, an example of how to use the audio output playground equipment 1 and its operation will be described. In addition, the following description is an illustration to the last, and the usage method of the audio | voice output playground equipment 1 is not limited to the said example.

  First, for example, when an infant C wants to go to bed, the parent urges the infant C to go to bed with the doll P. For example, as one of the sleep rituals, an infant C causes the pajama for the doll P to change the doll P. Subsequently, the parent turns on the main switch 5 and hands the audio output play equipment 1 to the infant C. At this time, the sound volume may be adjusted by changing the direction in which the sound unit 10 is housed in the cover unit 20 (the direction in which the speaker 4 outputs sound) as desired.

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 2, the infant C places the audio output playground equipment 1 on the futon, and the head of the hugging doll P is further placed thereon, and the hugging doll P is laid on the futon. And At this time, a sound is emitted when the cover unit 20 comes into contact with the head of the doll P. This sound is sharp when the intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27 are, for example, PET sheets. As a result, the sensation switch 3 is turned on, and the start sound having the sound contents shown in Table 1 below is output from the sound output playground equipment 1. As described above, when the sensation switch 3 is activated for the first time after the main switch 5 is turned on, the audio output playground equipment 1 outputs the start audio that prompts the user to go to bed.

  The infant C recognizes the start of the sleeping action from the start voice, and enters the futon to sleep with the hugging doll P and perform the sleeping action. Subsequently, for example, when the infant C talks to the doll P or touches the doll P, the voice of the infant C and the sound of the cover unit 20 are generated. As a result, the sensation switch 3 is turned on again, and any of the requested voices A to D of the voice content shown in Table 1 is output from the voice output unit 8 in a pseudo random pattern.

  In response to any of the request voices A to D for laying down, the infant C talks to, for example, the hugging doll P, hits the chest of the hugging doll P, connects the hand with the hugging doll P, and holds the body of the hugging doll P. Scratch it. When the infant C performs such a sleeping action, a voice or a crisp sound is emitted, and any of the requested voices A to D is output again in a pseudo-random pattern. Then, the same sleeping action and the output of any of the requested voices A to D are repeated.

  Here, the request voices A to D are, for example, request voice A → request voice B → request voice C → request voice D → request voice B → request voice D → request voice B → request voice A → request voice C → request voice. It is repeatedly output in a pseudo-random pattern such as B. A pseudo-random pattern is a pattern that looks random and unpredictable but is actually predictable (predetermined). As described above, when the sensation switch 3 is actuated after outputting the start sound, the sound output playground equipment 1 outputs any one of the requested sounds A to D different from the start sound by the sound output unit 8 in a pseudo random pattern.

  On the other hand, either when 5 minutes (first predetermined time) has elapsed since the main switch 5 was turned on or when the sound switch 3 is not turned on for 1 minute (second predetermined time), the audio output unit 8 is operated under the assumption that the hugging doll P has gone to bed. That is, the sound output unit 8 is set to the sleep mode after outputting the end sound of the sleep sound shown in Table 1. The sleep mode is a state (stop state) in which the audio output unit 8 does not operate despite the main switch 5 being on.

  Therefore, after the sleep mode is set, for example, even when the infant C talks or lays down and the sound of the infant C or the sound of the cover 20 is emitted, the sound is output from the audio output playground equipment 1. Not output. For this reason, when the hugging doll P goes to bed, the infant C can be illusioned, and since the hugging doll P goes to bed, the child C can be thought to go to bed, and the infant C can be urged to go to bed. Note that the sleep mode is canceled by turning off the main switch 5.

  Next, specific processing of the audio output playground equipment 1 will be described. In the audio output play equipment 1, as shown in FIG. 6, it is first determined whether or not the main switch 5 is turned on (S1). If NO in S1, the determination is continued. On the other hand, in the case of YES in S1, it is determined whether or not the sensation switch 3 is turned on (S2). In the case of NO in S2, it is determined whether or not 5 minutes have elapsed since the main switch 5 was turned on (S3). If NO in S3, the process proceeds to S2.

  In the case of YES in S2 above, a start sound for prompting to go to bed is output (S4). Subsequently, it is determined again whether or not the sound switch 3 is turned on (S5). If YES in S5, one of the requested voices A to D is output in a pseudo random pattern (S6). Subsequently, it is determined whether or not 5 minutes have elapsed since the main switch 5 was turned on (S7). If NO in S7, the process proceeds to S5. In other words, every time the sensation switch 3 is turned on until the lapse of 5 minutes after the main switch 5 is turned on, the process of outputting any of the requested voices A to D in a pseudo-random pattern is repeated. . In other words, for example, each time the infant C taps the chest of the hugging doll P, any one of the requested voices A to D is sequentially output in a pseudo random pattern. In the case of NO in S5, it is determined whether or not one minute has elapsed since the sensation switch 3 was turned on (S8). If NO in S8, the process proceeds to S7.

  In the case of YES in S3, in the case of YES in S7, and in the case of YES in S8, an end sound is output (S9) and the sleep mode is set (S10). Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the main switch 5 is turned off (S11). In the case of NO in S11, the determination is continued. That is, the main switch 5 is on and the sleep mode continues. On the other hand, if YES in S11, the sleep mode is canceled and the operation is terminated.

  As described above, according to the sound output playground equipment 1 of the present embodiment, since the sound switch 3 is used, the sound output unit 8 outputs sound by the sound generated in response to the action of the infant C who performs the lying action. be able to. As a result, the infant C can become the parent of the hugging doll P and lie down, and the infant C proceeds and enters the futon P and the futon. In addition, the infant C can go to bed naturally while laying down. In this way, by using the audio output playground equipment 1, it is possible to naturally train the infant C through the hugging doll P in the play so that the parent has difficulty in getting the infant C to learn. As a result, the burden on the parent regarding the sleep training of the infant C is reduced.

  By the way, conventionally, a bed-type sound output playground equipment used when an infant plays with a hugging doll is known. This bed-type sound output playground equipment is provided with a press switch that operates when the hugging doll is laid down on the bed portion, and outputs a sound for seeking care such as a cry by operating the press switch. According to this, it is possible to perform so-called “game play” in which an infant becomes a parent of a hugging doll and takes care of the hugging doll.

  On the other hand, the audio output playground equipment 1 of the present embodiment is not one in which the pillow-type playground equipment 2 that is a playground equipment main body part is fixed to the bed, but can be arranged on the comforter of the infant C, and Since the sensation switch 3 is used instead of the press switch, the infant C can lie down while lying on the doll P. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to put the infant C to sleep and to acquire the lifestyle habit of getting up early and sleeping through the laying-down action performed while lying together, rather than just “game play”.

  In such an audio output play equipment 1, in addition to being able to suitably give an educational effect such as “learning an act of taking care (care-giving action)” to the infant C through the hugging doll P, a lifestyle habit to be acquired is provided. It is possible to have a natural image through play, not as training. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to train the infant C naturally and suitably during play in a suitable manner. As a result, the infant C can naturally learn the lifestyle habits that are usually worn with a kite while playing.

  In recent years, in the field of brain science, it has been studied that secretion of pro-actin (prolactin) hormone is promoted when it comes into contact with a baby from an early age. This pro-behavioral hormone promotes the formation of a cerebrum that can be cute or loved, and forms a good parent (so-called young motherhood) in the future. In this respect, in the present embodiment, as described above, since the hugging doll P is played as a baby and takes the care-giving effect of taking care of it, it can be said to be particularly effective.

  Further, in particular, in the present embodiment, the infant C can play with a play action related to a lifestyle that takes care of the hugging doll P according to the request of the hugging doll P. Therefore, in addition to being able to suitably give the infant C the intellectual effect of “learning to take care of lying down”, the infant C can suitably obtain an appropriate image when going to bed, and to acquire it. This makes it possible for the child C to have a bedtime training that makes the child C have a natural image during play.

  Further, the audio output unit 8 of the present embodiment further includes a main switch 5, and when the main switch 5 is turned on for 5 minutes or after the main switch 5 is turned on, the sound switch 3 is turned on for 1 minute. At any time when it is not turned on, after the sleep sound is output as the end sound by the speaker 4, the sleep mode is set. Therefore, it is possible to cause the infant C to have an illusion that the hugging doll P has gone to bed, and to encourage the infant C to go to bed because the hugging doll P has gone to sleep.

  Note that when 5 minutes have passed since the main switch 5 was turned on, or when the sound switch 3 was not turned on for 1 minute after the main switch 5 was turned on, the infant C is not sleeping or at last. It is possible to assume a state where the person seems to sleep, or a state in which the user does not perform the laying-down action after sleeping completely. Even if the patient is completely asleep, the sleep sound is only output before the sleep mode is set.

  Further, when the sensation switch 3 is activated for the first time after the main switch 5 is turned on, the sound output unit 8 outputs a start sound for prompting bedtime. As a result, the infant C can be made to recognize the start of the laying-down action, and the infant C can be encouraged to go to bed.

  Further, when the sensation switch 3 is actuated after outputting the start voice, any of the plurality of request voices A to D different from the start voice is output in a pseudo random pattern, so that the next voice to be generated is the infant C. Therefore, it is difficult to predict, and it is possible to effectively give a feeling to the infant C as if the doll P is actually requesting care. As a result, it is possible to give all the imagination to the child C in the process of growth and to let the child C perform the sleeping action without getting tired.

  Moreover, the pillow-type playground equipment 2 has the cover part 20 which comprises the outer periphery, and the cover part 20 contains the some intermediate | middle sheet | seat materials 26 and 27 which emit a sound at least with a deformation | transformation. For this reason, in response to the action of the infant C related to the lying-down action, for example, a sound close to the womb sound that is easy for a child to be familiar with can be naturally emitted as a sensed sound of the sensation switch 3. Further, since the plurality of intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27 are fixed to the outer sheet material 25 and the inner sheet material 28 by the second sewing portion 24 at the width direction both ends 20a and 20b of the cover portion 20, It is possible to prevent the intermediate sheet materials 26 and 27 from shifting.

  Further, since the sound collecting slit 13 is formed on the upper surface 11b, the sensitivity of the sensation switch 3 is hardly affected by the orientation of the surface 11a. The audio unit 10 is provided with the pair of plate portions 14 as described above, and a space is formed between the audio unit 10 and the cover portion 20 while being accommodated in the cover portion 20. Thus, the sensation switch 3 can easily detect sound. In addition, since the audio unit 10 can be taken out from the cover portion 20 through the opening portion 22, even when the cover portion 20 becomes dirty, it is possible to easily perform care such as washing.

  As mentioned above, although preferred embodiment of this invention was described, the audio | voice output playground equipment which concerns on this invention is not restricted to the said audio | voice output playground equipment 1 which concerns on embodiment, The range which does not change the summary described in each claim It may be modified by or applied to others.

  In the said embodiment, although 1st predetermined time was 5 minutes, it is not limited to this, For example, 4 minutes or less or 6 minutes or more may be sufficient. Similarly, the second predetermined time is 1 minute, but is not limited to this, and may be shorter than the first predetermined time. Moreover, although the audio | voice output part 8 output the request | requirement audio | voices A-D with a pseudo random pattern, it is not limited to this, For example, you may output the request | requirement audio | voices A-D in order.

  In addition to changing into pajamas before entering the futon, for example, the act of drinking barley tea and reading a picture book is also effective as a sleep ritual, so the audio output play equipment 1 is not limited to pajamas for the hugging doll P.
