[0014]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 FIG. 1 shows a swinging toy according to the present invention. The swinging toy is configured as a hair-washing toy, and the head 10 and the body 20 are separable from each other.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the head portion 10 is composed of a hollow main portion 11 having a face, ears 11a, etc., and a base portion 12 into which the main portion 11 is fitted and supported. There is. A large number of holes 13 are formed in the crown of the main portion 11, and hair 11b is adhered or planted on the crown (see FIG. 1). The ears 11a are made of a flexible member that is adhered or implanted.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the base 12 has a dish-shaped liquid container 14, and an orifice 15 is formed at the bottom of the liquid container 14. The base portion 12 has a cylindrical shaft portion 16 at the bottom, and the shaft portion 16 is loosely fitted in the annular body 17. A pin 16a is formed downward on the lower end peripheral wall of the shaft portion 16. The pin 16a is located in a state where the shaft portion 16 is assembled to the annular body 17 and projects downward from the annular body 17. To be done.

A case 40 for accommodating the driving means 30 is attached to the lower portion of the annular body 17. A partition wall 41 is formed in the case 40, and the motor 31 is installed below the partition wall 41. Further, a pin 42 is provided upright on the upper surface of the partition wall 41, a hole 32a formed at one end of the crank 32 is fitted in the pin 42, and the crank 32 is rotatably supported. The crank 32 has an elongated hole 32b in its middle portion, and the elongated hole 32b is loosely fitted to an eccentric pin 31b formed at the tip of the shaft 31a of the motor 31. Further, a hole 32c is formed at the other end of the crank 32, and the pin 16a is fitted in the hole 32c. A power supply housing 43 is formed in the lower part of the case 40, and the battery 33 is housed in the power supply housing 43. The case 40 has an open lower end, and a lid 44 is fitted to the lower end.

Further, a holder 51 for supporting the switch 50 is provided on the cylindrical shaft portion 16 of the base portion 12. The holder 51 has a cylindrical support 51a at the bottom, and four floating tongues 51b are erected on the top. The float 52 is accommodated in the space defined by the tongue piece 51b. A switch case 53 is arranged above the tongue piece 51b. The lower part of the switch case 53 is open, and the open part is covered with a flexible sealing material 53a such as rubber. A switch 50 having two terminals 50a and 50b arranged at intervals is installed in the switch case 53.

The support body 51 a of the holder 51 is inserted into the shaft portion 16 of the base portion 12, and is held in a state where the lower end is stopped from rotating by the annular body 17. In order to have such a structure, the annular body 17 can be divided into two parts, left and right. The switch 50 is connected to the motor 31 via the battery 33.

The head 10 configured in this manner is attached to the body 20 such that the case 40 is housed in the body 20. At this time, the peripheral surface of the case 40 is fitted into the upper opening 20a of the body portion 20. Therefore, the driving means 30 is fixed to the body portion 20 via the case 40, and the holder 51 is also fixed to the body portion 20 via the case 40 and the annular body 17. On the other hand, since the head portion 10 is rotatably supported by the annular body 17, it is rotatably supported by the body portion 20.

In this swinging toy, as shown in FIG. 4A, sponge A is attached to shampoo B, and bubbles are attached to the head, ears, and the like. Then, as shown in FIG. 4B, when water C is applied to the crown, the water C flows into the liquid storage portion 14 through the hole 13. When the water level in the liquid storage portion 14 rises, the float 52 rises accordingly, and the float 52 operates the switch 50. Therefore, the motor 31 is driven. When the motor 31 is driven, the crank 32 is swung, which causes the head 10 to reciprocate left and right. Therefore, the bubbles of shampoo B attached to the head 10 and the ears 11a are shaken off by the centrifugal force. When the application of the water C to the head 10 is stopped, the water C in the liquid container 14 is gradually discharged to the outside via the orifice 15, so that the water level in the liquid container 14 lowers. Along with that, the float 52 descends, the switch 50 is turned off, and the driving of the motor 31 is stopped.

Since the swinging toy of the present invention uses the water C, the electric system such as the motor 31 and the switch 50 must be protected from the water C. Therefore, in the above-described embodiment, a sealing material 45 such as rubber is additionally provided on the lower surface of the partition wall 41, and a hole 40a is drilled in the peripheral wall of the case 40 near the upper surface of the partition wall 41 to allow penetration from the head 10 direction. In addition to dealing with the water C, the meeting portion between the case 40 and the lid 44 is covered with a sealing material 46 such as rubber to deal with the water C that has penetrated into the body portion 20 to protect the motor 31 and the battery 33 from the water C. doing.

Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, it is needless to say that the present invention is not limited to such an embodiment and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.

For example, in the above-described embodiment, the float 52 is provided in the liquid containing portion 14, the switch 50 is arranged above the float 52, and the float 52 is levitated by the liquid injected into the liquid containing portion 14. Although the switch 50 is configured to be actuated by the pressing force of the floating float 52, the liquid containing portion itself is configured to be movable up and down, and the switch is arranged below the liquid containing portion while the liquid containing portion is arranged. The portion is biased upward by a push spring or a pull spring, the liquid containing portion is moved downward by the liquid injected into the liquid containing portion, and the switch is operated by the pressing force of the liquid containing portion. It may be configured to.
