Description

  The present invention relates to a phosphorus-type top that combines a function of phosphorus and a top.

A top is a type of toy that is played with a rotating shaft attached to the tip of a weight for balancing.
Phosphorus is struck with a rind stick and is also used as a Buddhist instrument and is characterized by its timbre.
As a way to play tops, in addition to competing for the time to go around, playing with each other is also performed.
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-228561 discloses a beat-up solo in which hollow cylindrical sound generators having sound generation holes are overlapped.
However, this type of roaring topping is a wind noise when rotating and cannot be said to be a tasteful tone.
Therefore, the present inventor has come up with the present invention as a result of studying a solo that produces a clear and unique tone of small phosphorus.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a phosphorus-type top that is excellent in design and generates a phosphorus sound.

The phosphorus type top according to the present invention is characterized in that it is provided with phosphorus having an upper or / and lower opening and a rotating shaft erected at the center of the phosphorus.
Here, the phosphorus vibrates and emits a resonance sound when it hits an object or when tops collide with each other.
Orin, which has been used as a Buddhist instrument, has a reverberation sound of several seconds or longer after it is struck with a stick.
Therefore, phosphorus in the present invention refers to a substance that produces reverberant sound for at least 1 second or more, preferably 2 seconds or more.
In addition, the shape of the phosphorus is not only a conventional bowl-shaped phosphorus shape, but also an inverted bowl-shaped shape, a different shape, and the opening of the phosphorus is designed in a flower pattern etc. Two phosphorus faces the opening Also included are those that are paired together or turned back.

For example, a rotating shaft core may be provided at the bottom of phosphorus that is open at the top, and a rotating shaft may be erected on the inner bottom of phosphorus so as not to interfere with the vibration of phosphorus. Although there is no limitation, phosphorus has a female threaded portion at the center, the rotating shaft has a male threaded portion and a shaft that rotates at the tip, and the female threaded portion of the rotating shaft is the female threaded portion of the rotating shaft. When it is screwed onto the top, the structure is simple and easy to assemble.
If it does in this way, it will become portable phosphorus if the external thread part of a rotating shaft is screwed to the said phosphorus from the outside of phosphorus.
Here, the portable phosphorus is also referred to as a pulling pot as a Buddhist instrument.
In the present invention, the shaft core may have a ballpoint pen mechanism in which the ball rotates in accordance with the movement of the shaft core and the ink exudes.
In this way, a line can be drawn along the track of the top.
In addition, when playing as a solo, a weight part that increases the moment of inertia so as to rotate for a long time may be provided on the rotating shaft.

The phosphorus type topper according to the present invention has a function as a phosphorus when the phosphorus part is hit, and has a function as a topper when the hand is held by a turning shaft.
Therefore, when playing as a soloist, if the soloist hits an object while rotating, or hits another soloist, it will sound with a unique tone.

Here is an example of playing by colliding multiple phosphorus type tops.

  The phosphorus type top according to the present invention can be regarded as a top with a function as phosphorus, and conversely, it can be regarded as a phosphorus that can be played as a top.

FIG. 1 shows a state in which the player is in a solo, and FIG.
The phosphorus-type top 10 of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is an example in which a rotating shaft 12 is erected from the inner bottom portion of the phosphorus 11 having an open bowl-shaped upper portion.
The phosphorus 11 is preferably made of a metal such as a copper alloy, iron, or aluminum. Although not shown, the phosphorus 11 is preferably a small phosphorus having an outer diameter of 10 to 40 mm that produces a clear resonance sound when struck with a phosphorus rod or the like.
The rotating shaft 12 is for rotating a soloist and can be rotated by a string or the like, but in this embodiment, the rotating shaft 12 can be rotated by hand.

The axis that serves as the center of rotation for the top is formed at the bottom of the phosphorus.
In this case, it may be formed directly on the bottom of the phosphorus, but in this embodiment, the bottom 11a of the phosphorus 11 has a curved bowl shape and the top is an opening 11b, and a female thread 11c is formed on the bottom. As a result, the threaded portion 12c is formed at the tip of the rotating shaft 12, and the rotating shaft 12 with the shaft core 12d formed at the tip thereof can be screwed from the inside of the phosphorus 11 as shown in FIG. As shown in Fig. 4, it can be screwed from the outside of the phosphorus 11 as well.

As a result, when assembled as shown in FIG. 1, the tip end portion of the rotating shaft 12 protrudes from the bottom portion of the phosphorus 11 and becomes the shaft core 12d that turns the top.
In the present embodiment, the upper portion of the shaft portion 12b of the rotating shaft 12 is a knob portion 12a having an enlarged diameter. The knob portion 12a can be pinched with a fingertip to turn the top.
In this embodiment, an O-ring 13 is provided between the connecting portion between the bottom of the phosphorus 11 and the rotating shaft 12, but this O-ring 13 is not necessarily required as shown in FIG. 5 (c). .
As shown in FIG. 2, when the rotating shaft 12 is screwed from the outer bottom portion of the phosphorus 11, it becomes a pulling rod, and can be used to grip the rotating shaft 12 and hit it with a phosphorus rod or the like.
The structure of the parts is shown in FIG.

FIG. 5 shows an example of the shape of the shaft core, in which (a) shows a tip angle of about 30 °, and (b) shows a tip angle of about 80 °.
(C) is the example which attached the ball | bowl 12e employ | adopted as the tip of a ball-point pen to the front-end | tip part.
FIG. 5 (a) was compared with the top with (c) the ball 12e.
When the top was turned on the surface of a relatively hard base, in (c), it first turned upright after an inclined precession.
When the top was turned on the surface of a relatively soft base, both (a) and (b) were quick to rotate upright.
When the ball 12e is attached to the shaft core 12d, it is considered that the state in which the ball 12e slides on the surface of the table and the state in which the ball 12e rotates and the top ring rotates depending on the situation.
Further, with the ballpoint mechanism by the ball 12e as described above, when the ball 12e rotates along the trajectory of the top, the ink draws along with it.
Furthermore, it can be used as a pen with the rotating shaft 12.

Next, a modification of the phosphorus type top according to the present invention will be shown.
FIG. 6 is an example in which the rotating shaft 12 is provided with a weight portion 112 having a diameter larger than the shaft diameter so that the moment of inertia during rotation is increased.
(A) is an example in which the opening of the bowl-shaped phosphorus 11 is directed upward, and (b) is an example in which the opening of the phosphorus 11 is directed downward.
When the opening of the phosphorus 11 is faced downward as shown in (b), a threaded portion 12c is formed at the tip of the rotary shaft 12, and the female threaded portion 11c of the phosphorus 11 is screwed to the male threaded portion 12c. In addition, the weight portion 112 can be assembled by screwing the tip of the external thread portion 12c.
In this case, the shaft core 12d may be provided at the bottom of the weight portion 112.
In the present invention, the shape of phosphorus is not limited, and the example shown in FIG. 7A is a bottomed cylindrical phosphorus 111, and the outer diameter of the phosphorus is not limited to a circle but is a polygon such as a pentagon. Alternatively, it may be an irregular shape designed such that the upper end of the opening is shaped like a petal.
FIG. 7 (b) is an example of a phosphorus-type top, which consists of a pair of phosphorus with the openings of phosphorus 11 and 11 facing up and down to form a gap d. In this case, the bottom side of phosphorus 11 is back to back. It is also possible to form a pair of phosphorus having openings above and below.

FIG. 8 shows an example in which two tops are rotated and played against each other.
This is an example in which an earthen part 2 having a slightly recessed central part is formed on the upper surface of the table 1 and the tops 2 are brought together to play with each other.
When two phosphorus-type tops 10 and 10 collide with each other, a sound is heard and the reverberation is long, and you can enjoy a tone that is not found in conventional hit tops.
In addition, the sound can be enjoyed by simply touching lightly with a rod-like body such as a rind stick while turning the top.
If the outer shape of the phosphorus is made polygonal, or the opening is uneven and has an irregular shape such as a flower pattern, you can enjoy the tone just by moving the rod close to the spinning top.
