With the rotation of the gear cam composite 61 of the mouth operating mechanism 60 configured as described above, the cam 61 b and the ring-shaped portion 62 a of the mouth operating member 62 fitted onto the cam 61 b cooperate with each other. As a result, the tip of the mouth movement member 62 is swung on the side of the attachment piece 62c, and the swing causes the mouth 2 of the outer cover 1a of the stuffed animal toy 1 to move.

The stuffed animal toy 1 according to this embodiment is configured as described above and operates as follows. 4 and 5 are side views showing the operation explanation of the gear cam composite body 61 and the mouth movement member 62 operated by the gear cam composite body 61. Further, FIG. 6 shows a partial vertical side view of the stuffed animal toy in a state where no pressing force is applied to the outer operating portion 21c of the rotating lever 21, and FIG. 7 shows the outer operating portion of the rotating lever 21. 21c is a partial vertical cross-sectional side view of the stuffed animal toy in a state in which the player is pressing the finger with 21c.

The rotational power is transmitted to the gear 61a and the cam 61b of the gear-cam composite 61.

As shown in FIGS. 4 to 5, the rotational power transmitted to the cam 61b causes the tip of the mouth operating member 62c to be attached by the cooperative work of the cam 61b and the ring-shaped portion 62a of the mouth operating member 62. It is transmitted to the mouth movement member 62 as power for swinging motion of the portion 62c. Then, the mouth movement member 62 causes the mouth 2 of the stuffed animal toy 1 to be swung.

On the other hand, the rotational force of the rotating lever 21 by the external operation is converted into rotational force by the gear complex 31 and transmitted to the second gear complex 52 via the clutch mechanism 51 and the rotary shaft 23. The rotational power is transmitted to the flywheel 44 of the inertial force retaining mechanism 40 via the gear 52a and the pinion 43, and the flywheel 44 is rotated to be stored as the rotational power given the inertial force. While the rotational force to which this inertial force is applied is retained in the inertial force retaining mechanism 40, even if the rotational force is not imparted to the rotary lever 21, the inertial rotational force is equal to the second rotational force. It is transmitted as rocking power on the side of the attachment member 62c at the tip of the mouth movement member 62 via the gear complex 52 and the gear cam complex 61, and makes the mouth 2 of the stuffed animal toy 1 muffle.

Except when the turning force is applied to the rotating lever 21, the power transmission between the first clutch plate 51a and the second clutch plate 51b of the clutch mechanism 51 is released. The inertial force held in the inertial force holding mechanism 40 does not prevent the mouth 2 of the stuffed toy moving toy 1 from being moved.

The stuffed animal toy 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention is configured as described above, and when an external force is applied to the rotating lever 21 as an external operation member from the outside of the stuffed toy body 1A, the stuffed animal toy 1 rotates. The dynamic lever 21 undergoes a variable movement, and the variable movement is converted into rotary power by the gear complex 31 as the rotary power converter mechanism 30, and the rotary power is retained in the state where the rotary power is given an inertial force by the flywheel 44. The mouth activating mechanism 60 moves the mouth 2 of the stuffed toy main body 1A by the rotational power held by the mechanism 40. Therefore, the mouth 2 is muffled by pressing a specific portion of the stuffed animal toy 1. It will be a toy with a mysterious and interesting movement.

Further, in the stuffed animal toy 1, the power given to the rotating lever 21 is held for a while as the rotary power given the inertial force, and the held power is transmitted to the mouth movement member 62. Since the mouth 2 is moved, the movement is strange and even more interesting.

When no external force is applied to the turning lever 21 and the mouth 2 of the stuffed animal toy 1 is moved by the power held by the inertia power holding mechanism 40, the first clutch plate of the clutch mechanism 51 is moved. Since the power transmission between 51a and the second clutch plate 51b is released, even if the teeth 21b of the turning lever 21 mesh with the pinion 31a of the first gear complex 31 and stop, the inertial force retaining mechanism. It does not prevent the 40 from holding power.

In the stuffed animal toy 1 according to the above embodiment, the rotating lever 21 is used as the external operation member, but any member such as a rack can be used as long as external force can be taken in. May be.

The attachment of the mouth movement member 62 to the stuffed toy body 1A is not limited to the upper lip, and may be attached to any place as long as it allows the mouth to be muffled. You may

The rotation power conversion mechanism 30, the inertial force holding mechanism 40, the power transmission mechanism 50, the mouth movement mechanism 60, etc. are not limited to those used in the above-mentioned embodiment, and similar functions can be exhibited. Any mechanism may be used as long as it is available.

The appearance of the stuffed animal toy 1 is not limited to the above-mentioned appearance, and may be a model of a rabbit, cat, dog, or other animal, or may be a model of a human. . For example, as shown in FIG. 8, if the stuffed animal toy 1 looks like a bottle of milk held by both hands and the mouth of the bottle is placed against the mouth 2, it will feel as if the mouth 2 was muffled. It gives the impression that you are drinking milk.
