【考案の属する技術分野】
本考案は、伸縮するバトン玩具に関する。
【0002】
【従来技術とその問題点】
一般に、バトントワリングに用いられるバトンを模した形状に形成された玩具には、両端に球状部を形成し、この球状部の内部に粒状物を入れ、玩具を振り回したときに粒状物が球状部の内面に当って音が発生するようにしたものが知られている。
【0003】
しかし、振り回して音が出るだけでは顧客吸引力に乏しい。したがって、さらに商品としての魅力がアップできるようなバトン玩具が望まれていた。
【0004】
【考案が解決しようとする課題】
本考案は上記事情に鑑みて成立したもので、単に真直状になっているだけではなく、伸縮させることもできるバトン玩具を提供することをその課題とする。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
前記課題を解決するため、本考案に係るバトン玩具は、筒状部材に対して棒状の可動部材をスライドによって伸縮可能に挿入し、上記筒状部材と可動部材との間にはコイルバネを配置し、筒状部材の内部に可動部材が挿入して縮んだ状態のときに上記2つの部材に押圧されて上記コイルバネが縮むようにするとともに、上記筒状部材には、当該筒状部材の内部に可動部材が挿入して縮んだ状態で係止する係止手段と、上記係止を外すためのボタンとを設けたことを特徴とする。
【0006】
なお、前記筒状部材の両側に前記可動部材をスライドによって伸縮可能に挿入し、前記係止手段は上記の一側又は両側の可動部材に対する縮み状態における係止を選択的に外し可能とするのが好ましい。
【0007】
【考案の実施の形態】
図1において符号1はバトン玩具を示す。このバトン玩具1は、筒状の部材に対して棒状の可動部材3をスライドによって伸縮可能に挿入することにより、全体がバトン状に構成されている。
【0008】
筒状部材2は中央部材2aとその両側の第1の中間部材2bと第2の中間部材2cとから構成され、中央部材2aに対して第1の中間部材2bが、また第1の中間部材2bに対して第2の中間部材2cがスライドによって伸縮可能に挿入されている。なお、中央部材2aと第1の中間部材2bの一端には、図3に示されるように、互いに係合可能な係合部4、5が形成され、中央部材2aに対して第1の中間部材2bが抜け出さないようになっている。同様に、第1の中間部材2bと第2の中間部材2c、第2の中間部材2cと可動部材3にも同様の抜け止め用係合部4、5が形成されている。そして、最大伸長時には各係合部4、5が係合するように構成されている。
【0009】
可動部材3の端部には内部が中空な球状部6が形成され、内部には粒状物7が入っている。
【0010】
次に、上記筒状部材2と可動部材3との間にはコイルバネ8が配置されている。詰まり、コイルバネ8の一端は可動部材3の端部に固定され、コイルバネ8の他端は筒状部材2に形成されたバネ受け片9に係合可能に構成されている。したがって、上記コイルバネ8は、図3及び図4に示されるように、筒状部材2の内部に可動部材3が挿入して縮んだ状態のときに上記筒状部材2のバネ受け片9と可動部材3に押圧されて縮むようになっている。
【0011】
また、筒状部材2には、当該筒状部材2の内部に可動部材3が深く挿入して縮んだ状態で可動部材3に係止する係止手段10と、上記係止を外すためのボタン11とが設けられている。
【0012】
すなわち、筒状部材2の中央部には係止手段10が配置されている。係止手段10は、二股に形成された係止脚12を備え、軸芯に直交する方向に移動可能に設けられている。係止脚12の先端には係止顎13が形成されている。係止顎13は可動部材3の端部の係合部5に係止できるようになっている。
【0013】
係止手段10の中央部にはボタン11が形成され、筒状部材2に形成された貫通孔15を貫通して外部に露出している。また、係止脚12の間にはコイルバネ14が配置されている。これにより、係止脚12の係止顎13は可動部材3の係合部に係止したときに、この係止状態を保持できるように付勢され、またボタン11が筒状部材2から突出するように付勢されている。
【0014】
上記構成において、図1に示されるように、筒状部材2と可動部材3とが伸長状態にあるときはバトンとして遊ぶことができる。リズムに合わせて振りまわせば発音するので、その音に合わせてダンスしたり歩いたりすることができる。
【0015】
次に、両側の可動部材3を中央の筒状部材2に向けて押し込んでスライドさせて図2のように縮めると、図3、図4のように、筒状部材2の係止脚12の係止顎13は可動部材3の係合部5に係止し、コイルバネ14によってこの係止状態が保持される。同時に、可動部材3のコイルバネ8は、筒状部材2のバネ受け片9と可動部材3に押圧されて縮む。これにより、バトン玩具1は最も短い状態となる。
【0016】
短い状態から伸長させるときは、筒状部材2のボタン11をコイルバネ14に抗して押しこむ。これにより、係止脚12の係止顎13と可動部材3の係合部5との係止が外れるので、コイルバネ8の弾発力により、可動部材3が筒状部材2から遠ざかるように飛び出す。また、これに伴なって第1及び第2の中間部材2b、2cも外方にスライドするので、全体として伸長状態となる。さらに可動部材3を外方に引き出して筒状部材2と第1と第2の中間部材2b、2cと可動部材3の各端部をきつく係合させることにより、一体のバトンのように変化する。
【0017】
なお、ボタン11は傾けないで真直ぐに押すと両側の可動部材3が同時に伸長し、傾けて押すと、傾いた側の可動部材3との係止のみを外すことができるので、いずれか一側のみを選択的に伸長させることができる。
【0018】
上述のように、上記バトン玩具1によれば、短縮状態から伸長状態に瞬間的に変化するので、驚きと面白さが伴なうバトン玩具1を提供することができる。しかも、筒状部材2の一側又は両側を伸長させることができるので、驚きも面白みも倍化する。
【0019】
なお、上述の例では筒状部材2自体も伸縮する構造になっているが、必ずしもこれに限定されない。筒状部材2は一体に形成され、伸縮しなくてもよい。
【0020】
【考案の効果】
請求項1に係る考案によれば、筒状部材と可動部材とが伸長状態にあるときはバトンとして遊ぶことができる。リズムに合わせて振りまわせば発音するので、その音に合わせてダンスしたり歩いたりすることができる。
【0021】
筒状部材と可動部材とを係止させて短縮させた状態から伸長させるときは、筒状部材のボタンにより、筒状部材と可動部材との係止が外れ、コイルバネの弾発力により、可動部材が筒状部材から遠ざかるように飛び出して伸長する。短縮状態から伸長状態に瞬間的に変化するので、驚きと面白さが伴なうバトン玩具を提供することができる。
【0022】
請求項2に係る考案によれば、短縮状態から筒状部材の一側のみを選択的に伸長させることができるので、驚きも面白みも倍化させることができる。

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]
The present invention relates to an elastic baton toy.
[0002]
[Prior art and its problems]
Generally, a toy formed in a shape imitating a baton used for baton twirling has spherical portions formed at both ends, and a granular material is placed inside the spherical portion, and when the toy is swung, the granular material becomes a spherical portion. It is known that a sound is generated by hitting the inner surface of a vehicle.
[0003]
However, it is not enough to attract customers just by swinging and making sounds. Therefore, there has been a demand for a baton toy that can further enhance its attractiveness as a product.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a baton toy that can be expanded and contracted as well as being straight.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the baton toy according to the present invention inserts a rod-shaped movable member into a cylindrical member so as to be extendable and contractible by sliding, and arranges a coil spring between the cylindrical member and the movable member. When the movable member is inserted into the cylindrical member and contracted, the two members are pressed by the two members so that the coil spring is contracted, and the cylindrical member includes a movable member inside the cylindrical member. A locking means for locking the member in a contracted state by inserting the member and a button for releasing the locking are provided.
[0006]
The movable member is inserted into both sides of the cylindrical member so as to be extendable and contractible by sliding, and the locking means can selectively release the locked state of the movable member on one or both sides in a contracted state. Is preferred.
[0007]
[Embodiment of the invention]
In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a baton toy. The whole baton toy 1 is configured in a baton shape by inserting a rod-shaped movable member 3 into a tubular member so as to be able to expand and contract by sliding.
[0008]
The tubular member 2 is composed of a central member 2a, a first intermediate member 2b and a second intermediate member 2c on both sides of the central member 2a, and a first intermediate member 2b is provided for the central member 2a. A second intermediate member 2c is inserted into the second intermediate member 2b so as to be able to expand and contract by sliding. At one end of the central member 2a and the first intermediate member 2b, as shown in FIG. 3, engagement portions 4 and 5 that can be engaged with each other are formed, and the first intermediate member 2a and the first intermediate member 2b are formed with a first intermediate member. The member 2b does not come off. Similarly, the first intermediate member 2b and the second intermediate member 2c, and the second intermediate member 2c and the movable member 3 are also formed with similar retaining engagement portions 4,5. Each of the engagement portions 4 and 5 is configured to be engaged at the time of maximum extension.
[0009]
A spherical part 6 having a hollow inside is formed at an end of the movable member 3, and a granular material 7 is contained inside the spherical part 6.
[0010]
Next, a coil spring 8 is arranged between the tubular member 2 and the movable member 3. One end of the coil spring 8 is fixed to the end of the movable member 3, and the other end of the coil spring 8 is configured to be able to engage with a spring receiving piece 9 formed on the tubular member 2. Accordingly, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the coil spring 8 is movable with the spring receiving piece 9 of the tubular member 2 when the movable member 3 is inserted and contracted inside the tubular member 2. The member 3 is compressed by being pressed.
[0011]
Further, the cylindrical member 2 includes a locking means 10 for locking the movable member 3 in a state where the movable member 3 is inserted deeply into the cylindrical member 2 and contracted, and a button for releasing the lock. 11 are provided.
[0012]
That is, the locking means 10 is disposed at the center of the tubular member 2. The locking means 10 includes a bifurcated locking leg 12, and is provided movably in a direction perpendicular to the axis. A locking jaw 13 is formed at the tip of the locking leg 12. The locking jaw 13 can be locked to the engaging portion 5 at the end of the movable member 3.
[0013]
A button 11 is formed at the center of the locking means 10 and is exposed to the outside through a through hole 15 formed in the tubular member 2. A coil spring 14 is disposed between the locking legs 12. As a result, when the locking jaw 13 of the locking leg 12 is locked to the engaging portion of the movable member 3, the locking jaw 13 is urged to maintain this locked state, and the button 11 protrudes from the cylindrical member 2. You are being biased to.
[0014]
In the above configuration, as shown in FIG. 1, when the tubular member 2 and the movable member 3 are in the extended state, they can play as batons. You can dance and walk according to the sound because it sounds when you shake it in rhythm.
[0015]
Next, when the movable members 3 on both sides are pushed toward the central tubular member 2 and slid to contract as shown in FIG. 2, the locking legs 12 of the tubular member 2 are moved as shown in FIGS. The locking jaw 13 is locked to the engaging portion 5 of the movable member 3, and the locked state is maintained by the coil spring 14. At the same time, the coil spring 8 of the movable member 3 is compressed by the spring receiving piece 9 of the tubular member 2 and the movable member 3. Thereby, the baton toy 1 becomes the shortest state.
[0016]
When extending from the short state, the button 11 of the tubular member 2 is pushed in against the coil spring 14. As a result, the locking between the locking jaw 13 of the locking leg 12 and the engaging portion 5 of the movable member 3 is released, so that the movable member 3 jumps out of the cylindrical member 2 by the elastic force of the coil spring 8. . In addition, the first and second intermediate members 2b and 2c are also slid outward along with this, so that the whole is in an extended state. Further, by pulling the movable member 3 outward and tightly engaging the cylindrical member 2, the first and second intermediate members 2b and 2c, and the respective ends of the movable member 3, the movable member 3 changes like an integral baton. .
[0017]
When the button 11 is pushed straight without tilting, the movable members 3 on both sides are simultaneously extended, and when the button 11 is tilted and pushed, only the lock with the movable member 3 on the inclined side can be released. Only one can be selectively extended.
[0018]
As described above, the baton toy 1 instantaneously changes from the shortened state to the extended state, so that it is possible to provide the baton toy 1 with surprise and fun. Moreover, since one or both sides of the tubular member 2 can be extended, the surprise and the interest are doubled.
[0019]
In the above-described example, the tubular member 2 itself has a structure that also expands and contracts, but is not necessarily limited to this. The tubular member 2 is formed integrally and does not need to expand and contract.
[0020]
[Effect of the invention]
According to the invention of claim 1, when the tubular member and the movable member are in the extended state, they can play as batons. You can dance and walk according to the sound because it is pronounced when you swing it to the rhythm.
[0021]
When the tubular member and the movable member are locked and extended from a shortened state, the tubular member and the movable member are unlocked by the button of the tubular member, and the movable member is moved by the elastic force of the coil spring. The member protrudes and extends away from the tubular member. Since the state is instantaneously changed from the contracted state to the extended state, it is possible to provide a baton toy with surprise and fun.
[0022]
According to the invention of claim 2, since only one side of the tubular member can be selectively extended from the shortened state, it is possible to double surprise and fun.
