DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a rotating decorative body which appears partially translucent by rotation and a toy using the same.
The present invention relates to an indoor device product, an outdoor device product, a table clock, an identification sign, an advertising medium, and a rotary playground equipment.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art
Among device toys mainly for appreciation, interior products, exterior products, and the like, there are devices which are mainly intended for decoration and which give a sense of beauty to a viewer by rotating. Some of these have been designed to make viewers feel more surprising by giving them some sort of illusion. Advertisement media such as some signboards also use such an illusion. As a means for causing this illusion, a method of applying various designs by painting a pattern or a color is often used, and a different color or pattern, a desired character, or the like is obtained by mixing colors by rotation and patterns. Is known to make the contents of the advertisement appear.

[0003] However, the above-mentioned conventional articles have different colors and patterns in appearance between a rotation and a stop, and have a different appearance from the stop when rotated and look beautiful. Although there are some types of unexpectedness that can entertain viewers, the color pattern that appears when rotating due to the color scheme of the color pattern at the time of stoppage is somewhat predictable, and it is still insufficient in terms of unexpectedness. Was. In other words, it is well-known that the one in which the three primary colors are arranged along the rotation circumference in a combination of the two colors looks like a mixed color of the two colors by being rotated, for example, purple from blue and red. However, due to the nature of the rotating body, shapes that do not satisfy axial symmetry with respect to the rotation axis are positively excluded, so after all, concentric circles are stacked up and down in the vertical direction along the axis. It did not deviate, was very simple, and did not look much different from when stopped due to rotation.

[0004] In addition, there is a type of a table clock that also serves as an ornament for viewing using a decorative body that repeats rotation or forward / reverse rotation instead of a pendulum vibration. It was monotonous because none of the elements had aesthetic appeal.

[0005] In addition, a kind of rotary playground equipment provided in an amusement park, which rotates at a high speed with a person on it and enjoys receiving a load when a person is pressed against the inner surface of the rotating body by centrifugal force, is included therein. People who ride and play are fun, but those who watch from outside without playing equipment seem to have poor aesthetic taste. That is, when going to an amusement park with a family, photography and video shooting are frequently performed here, and anyone can be in a position to appreciate by watching the video after shooting, so it is also an object of appreciation. He hoped that the aesthetic taste was elaborated, but not enough to meet his expectations.

[0006] In addition, in the identification signs such as a road sign, a construction sign, and a guidance signboard, a display content for performing a certain kind of guidance by rotating is displayed so as to prompt a viewer to identify or provide guidance. There are things that achieve the purpose of doing. However, this type of identification sign has the property of giving the highest priority to the display function and the distinctiveness, and the emphasis is not placed on the decorative surface, and there is no room for incorporating aesthetic taste, and it has been dull. In addition, the function of attracting a viewer's attention to the displayed contents without a surprise was reduced. In other words, since the sign is not surprising, the person watching it chronically loses attention, leading to a situation where the function as the sign may be lost.

The present invention has been made in order to obtain a novel effect which has not been obtained from the above-mentioned prior art, and has a rotating decorative body which, when rotated, exhibits an aspect which is difficult to predict from an aspect at the time of stopping. And to provide the above-mentioned various articles using the same.

As shown in FIG. 1 (c), the shape shown in FIG. 1 (b) is either one of them (in FIG. 1 (b)) when they are overlapped so that their rotation axes 2 completely overlap each other. At least a part (b ₁ ) of the outer contour line b has a relationship inside the outer contour line c of the center longitudinal cross section of the other (in the drawing, (a)). The rotary decorative body of the present invention has two or more kinds of central cross-sectional shapes having such a relationship.

Further, referring to FIG. 2, the rotary decorative body 1 has an arrow a at a predetermined position.
The horizontal cross section 3 at the position (1) includes an outer periphery 7 of an imaginary plane 6 surrounded by an imaginary circumference 5 obtained with the radius being the longest diameter d from the rotation axis core 2 to the outer periphery 4 of the top in the horizontal cross section 3. There is provided a defective portion 8 formed by removing the portion, and is configured to have at least a part of the outer contour line inside the virtual circumference 5.

[0012] Each of the horizontal sections is laminated in the thickness direction along the axis 2 of the rotary decorative body 1 to form a defective portion assembly 9 formed by laminating the defective portions 8. and are made with a predetermined pattern 17 on the wall 16 comprises a laminated assembly of the contour b ₁ of each defect a wall, rotating the rotary ornamental body 1 and the axial core 2 as a rotation axis In this case, the portion of the missing portion aggregate 9 looks translucent, and is formed on the wall surface 16 that is formed by the missing portion aggregate 9 and is formed by a laminated aggregate of the outer contours of the respective missing portions. It is configured such that a predetermined concrete pattern is shown and seen by the predetermined pattern 17 provided.

Examples of the concrete pattern include plants, animals, buildings, tableware, vases, vehicles, landscapes, food, characters, and other real articles based on real events. Examples of plants (although some are included in food) include flowers, trees, and fruits.

Foods include biscuits, breads, cakes, buns, hamburgers, sausages, rice balls, frozen desserts, drinks, and the like. Since the above-described various articles have colors, they are usually colored so that concrete patterns appear in shades corresponding to the colors of the real thing. In order for the concrete pattern to appear by the pattern 17 provided on the wall surface 16, the pattern 17 is experimentally experimented so that a desired concrete pattern is obtained by actually rotating the rotating decorative body while changing the mode of the pattern 17. Is determined. The characters may be not only simple characters but also sentences having meaning. The concrete pattern may be a combination of a plurality of different types of patterns such as a combination of a watermelon and a penguin.

In the present invention, the one horizontal section 3 has an arbitrary minute thickness. Therefore, the one defective portion 8 also has the same minute thickness as the horizontal section 3.

The plane shape of the defective portion 8 in one horizontal section is arbitrary. Each of the defective portions 8 in each of the horizontal cross sections vertically continuing in the height direction is connected and assembled in the thickness direction of the horizontal cross section 3 (the height direction of the rotary decorative body) to form an aggregate 9 of the defective portions. The shape of the aggregate 9 may be such that the vertical cross section at an arbitrary position in the direction along the circumference is constant. For example, the shape can be long in the direction along the circumference such that the vertical cross section at an arbitrary position in the direction along the circumference of the rotary decorative body 1 is constant, but is not limited to this. The directionally fragmentary shapes can take on various shapes, such as shapes intermittently arranged along the circumference.

In the present invention, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, two or more independent defective portions 8 may be provided in one horizontal section at a predetermined position of the rotary decorative body. In this case, the two or more defective portions 8 are located on the same circumference of each other, that is, between the outer circumference 10 and the inner circumference 11 indicated by a dashed line (for example, as shown in FIG. Outer circumference 1 as shown in 2
0 and the rotation axis 2)
In addition, one on the circumference different from each other, that is, between the outer circumference 10 and the inner circumference 11 indicated by a dashed line, for example, as shown in FIG. It may be provided as one above the circumference 12.

The provision of the defective portion 8 allows the shape of a vertical cross section of the rotary decorative body 1 to cut the defective portion 8 to be a portion corresponding to the position of the defective portion 8 in the outer contour line. Decorative body 1 in the direction avoiding the direction in which is provided
Has a shape inside the outer contour line of the shape of the vertical vertical section at the center.

Further, the shape of the vertical cross section that cuts the defective portion 8 has a contour line inside as well as the external contour line, and the concave portion 8 is also provided in the internal contour line. The shape may be such that it is inside the outer contour of the shape of the vertical vertical section at the center of the rotating decorative body 1 in a direction avoiding the direction.
As such an example, a shape shown in FIG.

The rotating decorative body 1 shown in the present embodiment configured as described above is equivalent to the width e (length in the axial direction) of the defective portion 8 in a horizontal section having the defective portion 8 when rotated. 2 (in FIG. 2, the entire plane 6 excluding the axis 2, and in FIGS. 3A and 3B, outside the dashed-dotted line 11 in the plane 6). portion corresponding to the thickness (length in the height direction) D of the assembly 9, or including a portion thereof, (in FIG. 1, indicated by b ₁₎ defect lowermost surface above the whole than it appears translucent The effect is expressed. That shown in Figure 1, all from b ₁ upper looks translucent.

In the present invention, a defect on the surface 13 between arbitrary circumferences 10 and 11 having a predetermined interval on the surface of each horizontal section 3 (or between the circumference 10 and the rotation axis 2). The occupancy of the portion 8 is preferably 30 to 80% with respect to the entire circumference of the surface 13 between the two circumferences 10 and 11 (or the rotation axis 2). The surface 13 between the circumference 10 and the circumference 11 (or the rotation axis 2) of the defect portion 8 on the surface 13 between the circumference 10 and the circumference 11 (or the rotation axis 2) Is specifically, the area S of the defective portion 8
The means the area occupancy to the area S ₀ of the total circumference of the two circumferential between surfaces 13. When the defective portion 8 is provided intermittently on the same circumferential surface of the two circumferential surfaces 13, each area s ₁ , s ₂ ... (S _n ) is the area occupation ratio of the total area S ₀ of the total area S of the two circumferential surfaces 13. When the occupation rate of the defective portion 6 is configured as described above, the rotation of the rotary decorative body 1 causes the entire circumference between two circles where the defective portion 8 exists in the horizontal section 3 having the defective portion 8. Becomes translucent.
This also applies to the surface 14 between the circumference 10 and the circumference 12 and the surface 15 between the circumference 11 and the circumference 12 in FIG.

If the occupation ratio is less than 30%, a portion corresponding to a portion having the defect 8 may appear semi-transparent due to the rotation of the rotary decorative body depending on the number of rotations of the decorative rotary body. The effect cannot be obtained sufficiently.
On the other hand, when the occupancy exceeds 80%, it becomes difficult to see translucent. In any of the above cases, the rotational speed of the rotating decorative body is 13
If it is less than 0 rpm, it is difficult to obtain the effect of producing unexpectedness because what is supposed to be opaque appears translucent.

If the occupation ratio is within the above range, the rotation speed is hardly restricted in order to obtain the above effects, but it is usually preferable that the rotation speed be 150 to 800 rpm. In the range of the number of rotations, the range of the occupation ratio of the defective portion most remarkably expresses the effect of making the defective portion 8 look translucent by rotation. The rotation speed is preferably 300 to 800
rpm, more preferably 600 to 800 rpm, but the above effect does not decrease even if the rotation speed exceeds 800 rpm.

The rotary decorative body of the present invention may have either a solid structure or a hollow structure. In the case of the hollow structure, the outer contour refers to not the contour of the hollow part but the contour forming the outermost surface.

Further, the rotary decorative body of the present invention can be constituted by combining plate-like bodies such as a plastic plate, a wooden plate and a metal plate. These examples are shown in FIGS.
A part is shown as a horizontal sectional view at a predetermined position. If a transparent plastic plate is used, the pattern can be visually recognized even if the pattern 17 is provided on either the inside or the outside of the plastic plate. If the rotary decorative body is constituted by a combination of plate-like bodies, a rotary decorative body having a complicated shape can be easily and inexpensively obtained.

As shown in FIG. 4A to 7, (a) is a plan view,
(B) is a sectional view taken along line AA of (a), (c) is a side view of (a) viewed in the direction of arrow C, (d) is a side view of (a) viewed in the direction of arrow D, ( e) is a sectional view taken along line BB of (a), (f)
FIG. 7A is a view showing how a pattern seen when (a) is rotated around the axis 2 as a rotation axis. The pattern 17 is shown by solid black. The rotary decorative body shown in FIGS.
When rotated about the rotation axis, the portion (space) of the missing portion assembly 9 appears translucent in each figure.

As shown in FIG. 4E, the rotating decorative body of FIG. 4 causes a bell-shaped pattern to appear by rotating. The pattern 17 may be colored, for example yellow, so as to be able to represent the shade of a bell.

As shown in FIG. 5 (e), the rotating decorative body shown in FIG. 5 causes an elongated pattern to appear by rotating. The pattern 17 can be colored white, for example, if it represents radish, or orange, if it represents carrot, among the elongated ones.

As shown in FIG. 6 (e), the rotating decorative body of FIG. 6 makes a fruit-like pattern appear by rotating. The pattern 17 may be colored, for example, pink if it represents peach, or red if it represents apple.

As shown in FIG. 7 (e), the rotating decorative body of FIG. 7 causes a pattern like an insect to appear by rotating. If the pattern 17 represents an insect, for example, an ant or a worm, it can be colored black.

8 to 10, (a) is a plan view, (b) is a sectional view taken along line AA of (a), and (c) is a sectional view taken along line BB of (a). . In the present invention, the embodiments as shown in the respective drawings can be adopted. When the rotary decorative body shown in each figure is rotated with the axis 2 as the axis of rotation, the area shown by the halftone dot in FIG. Depending on the pattern, for example, the predetermined concrete pattern as described above appears.

In the present invention, the rotary decorative body 1 is provided by further providing a predetermined pattern 18 on a surface other than the wall surface 16 composed of the laminated aggregate of the outer contour line b ₁ of each defective portion 8.
Is rotated about the axis 2 as a rotation axis, the portion of the above-mentioned missing portion aggregate 9 looks translucent, and the wall 16 formed by the laminated aggregate of the outer contour line b ₁ of each of the missing portions 8 is formed. The predetermined pattern 17 provided and the pattern 18 provided on the surface 19 other than the wall surface 16 may be configured so that a predetermined concrete pattern appears and appears. A specific example of such an embodiment will be described in a later-described embodiment of the top game. still,
Such an embodiment is not limited to being applied to top music, but can be applied to other articles of the present invention.

In the present invention, the pattern 17 can be provided on a part of the wall surface 16, or the pattern 18 can be provided on a part of the wall surface 19. A portion other than the portion provided with 18 can be colored with an appropriate color by painting or the like. By doing so, the effect of coloring can be obtained by mixing colors by rotation. It is preferable that the coloring be performed according to an appropriate rule. Furthermore, if a part which looks translucent (a part where the pattern 17 is provided) and a part which does not appear (the part which looks opaque) are separately arranged, and the parts which appear opaque so as to have opposite colors are colored. The effect is increased because the translucent portion looks more translucent and the concrete pattern looks more prominent. Further, if the translucent portion is colored in a bright color and the non-transparent portion is colored in a dark color, the above-mentioned effect becomes more remarkable.

Further, depending on the theme and the mode of the pattern 17, a bright color or a fluorescent color is arranged at a position which is a part of the pattern 17 in the translucent portion and which is distant from the opaque portion. The pattern 17 can be formed by arranging a dark color in the portion. By doing so, the pattern 17 is rotated.
Is a part of the concrete pattern created by a part of the circle, and the ring or circle pattern obtained from the bright or fluorescent parts appears to be floating in the air independently. This gives an effect of giving a strange feeling to the object. By providing a pattern 17 consisting of points and lines on the wall surface 16 and providing a pattern 18 consisting of points and lines on the wall surface 19 at the same height position, the ring pattern seen when the rotating decorative body 1 is rotated is right next to it. Although it is one when viewed from above, it can be made to look like a double circle when viewed from obliquely above.
In this case, since the inside of the double circle appears to be raised in the translucent state, a three-dimensional effect can be obtained.

The upper surface of the opaque portion can be colored in a conspicuous color or pattern such as yellow. In this way, this portion is visually emphasized, and as a result, the translucency of the translucent portion is enhanced.

The above-described rotating decorative body can be applied to top music, mainly appreciation toys, indoor equipment, outdoor equipment, table clocks, identification signs, advertising media, rotary play equipment, and the like. Hereinafter, a case where the present invention is applied to each of the above articles will be described.

By rotating the tops shown in FIGS. 15 to 18, a pattern expressing a specific article by the patterns 17 and 18 can be made to appear. Of course,
Since the portion of the defective portion aggregate 9 appears translucent, the pattern obtained by the pattern 17 appears to be floating in the translucent state. The tops in FIGS. 15 and 18 look like eggs whose shells have been partially broken by rotation. The top of FIG. 16 looks like an apple that has been partly shaved. The top in FIG. 17 looks like a partially cut watermelon.

Next, the toy of the present invention will be described. The toy of the present invention is obtained by applying the above-mentioned rotating decorative body to a toy for appreciating mainly among toys (except for top games), for example, as shown in a partially cutaway side view in FIG. It comprises a rotating decorative body 1 and a rotation driving device 21 for rotating the rotating decorative body 1. Rotary drive 21
May be either a manual type or a mechanical type. As the mechanical type, a conventionally known driving device such as a spring-driven type or a type using a motor can be used. Further, a transmission device (not shown) for transmitting the rotational driving force may be interposed between the rotary driving device and the rotary decorative body. Incidentally, reference numeral 22 denotes a rotating shaft, and reference numeral 23 denotes a housing housing the rotary driving device 21. FIG. 19 shows an example using the rotary decorative body of FIG. In the figure, the inside of the housing is cut away so that it can be seen.

In the case where a rotary decorative body having a shape as shown in FIG. 19 is used, a display body 25, lighting and the like are provided in a central space portion 24 (comprising the defective portion assembly 9). It can also be arranged. By doing so, the characters and patterns drawn on the display body appear blurred, and the lights appear to be blurred, giving a more attractive appearance. The display body 25 may be made of a light-transmitting or light-semi-transmitting material in a cylindrical shape, and an arrangement in which illumination is arranged inside the display body 25 may be arranged in the central space 24. The display 25 may be rotated. FIG.
Here, the display body 25 is fixed on the rotation decoration body 1 on the extension of the rotation shaft 22. Note that the display body 25 may be suspended from the upper side or the like by the suspending means 26 as shown by a two-dot chain line in the space 24 from above without being fixed to the rotary decoration body. Another end of the suspending means 26 is fixed to, for example, the housing 23 or the like. When electric lighting is provided in the display 25, a part of the suspending means 26 can be replaced by a lead wire.

Further, by coloring the portion of the rotary decorative body 1 with an appropriate color scheme in the above-described manner, the effect of coloring by mixing the colors and the translucent portion appear more prominently, thereby realizing the concrete. It can be expected that the pattern will look outstanding.

In the toy configured as described above, a predetermined portion looks translucent when the portion of the rotary decoration is rotated, and the translucent portion or the whole shows a predetermined concrete pattern, and thus the It has the effect of presenting an aesthetically pleasing aesthetic, increasing the enjoyment, and moistening the feelings of the viewer.

As the toy, embodiments shown in FIGS. 20 and 21 can be adopted. In FIG. 20, (a) is a plan view, (b) is a front view as viewed from direction A of (a), and (c) is a side view as viewed from direction B of (a). In the appreciation toy shown in FIG. 20, the range between the virtual line C and the virtual line E extending horizontally from the upper and lower ends of the space portion 24 looks translucent by rotating the portion of the rotary decorative body 1, and the virtual toy is displayed. A mysterious state in which the portion above the line C appears to be floating in the air can appear.

In FIG. 21, (a) is a plan view, and (b) is a side view. The display 25 is fixed to the housing 23 by a pivot 27, and the rotary decoration 1 is a pivot 2
7 is rotatably supported. The rotation driving force generated by the rotation driving device 21 is transmitted to the lower surface of the rotary decoration 1.

In the present invention, the above-mentioned toys are not limited to those dedicated to appreciation, but may be applied to other toys, for example, doll toys, riding toys which move by power, and assembly block toys. be able to.

Further, the indoor equipment product and the outdoor equipment product of the present invention are obtained by applying the above-described rotary decoration to an indoor equipment product or an outdoor equipment product. And a rotation drive device for causing the rotation. As the rotary drive, other than the same as the above-mentioned appreciation toy,
An internal combustion engine or the like can be used for outdoor equipment. Here, the indoor equipment item is an indoor ornament and the like that does not belong to a toy, and the outdoor equipment article is an outdoor ornament and the like that does not belong to a toy. Here, the figurine is essentially the same as the above-mentioned appreciation toy, and therefore the structure is also essentially the same or similar. However, in general, the size is relatively large and frequently moves or moves. It is a property of being placed in a fixed position for a relatively long time without being carried or carried around.

The present invention can also be applied to a table clock which is often included in indoor equipment among the above. The table clock of the present invention is a table clock of a type that also serves as an ornament for viewing using a decorative body that repeats rotation or forward / reverse rotation instead of the pendulum vibration, in which the rotary decorative body according to the present invention is used instead of the decorative body. is there. As the rotation driving device for driving the rotary decoration, a rotation driving device incorporated for driving a timepiece can be used, but it may be provided separately. still,
In the conventional table clock of this type, since the rotational speed of the decorative body is relatively small, it is preferable to rotate the rotary decorative body at a higher speed at the above-mentioned preferable rotational speed through a transmission.
