(A) (b) is a top view explaining the state which begins to eject a spherical body from a playing piece (A) and (b) are side views explaining the state in which the ball launching toy is separated from the game surface and the state in which the ball is launched in that state.

  1 (a) and 1 (b) show an example of a ball launching toy A according to the present invention. In this ball launching toy A, a toy body 1 is formed to imitate a robot. 3 is attached, and as shown in FIG. 1 (a), a sphere 5 is inserted into the body 2 from an opening 4 formed in the back of the toy body 1, and as shown in FIG. 1 (b) The pushing member 6 protruding rearward of the portion 2 is pushed forward against the spring 7 so that the sphere 5 can be fired from the launching port 8 formed in the front surface of the body portion 2. As shown in FIG. 2A, the member 3 is formed in a substantially U shape from a pair of flip pieces 10 and a connecting portion 11 that connects the base portions of the flip pieces 10. 10a is formed so as to protrude inward, and the space between the tip portions 10a is ejected. It is formed to be smaller than the diameter of the body 5.

  Each flip piece 10 protrudes rearward to form an engagement plate 12, and an engagement convex portion 13 is formed to protrude from the opposing surface of the engagement plate 12.

  In addition, guide grooves 11 a for guiding the pushing member 6 are formed on the upper and lower surfaces of the connecting portion 11. When pushed forward against the spring 7, the tip 6 a is formed on the rear surface of the sphere 5 accommodated between the flipping pieces 10. The ball 5 is pushed out while abutting and expanding the flip piece 10 to the left and right, and the flip piece 10 returns to its original state at the moment when the maximum diameter of the ball 5 passes through the tip 10a of the flip piece 10. The sphere 5 is ejected forward by the resilience. Note that the flip piece 10 does not need to be connected by the connecting member 11, and as shown in FIG. You may make it rotate.

  The sphere launch toy A includes a bullet control mechanism B that controls the momentum of the sphere 5 to be ejected. As shown in FIG. 1A, the bullet control mechanism B can be attached to and detached from the back surface of the toy main body 1 and acts on the engagement plate 12 of the flip piece 10 when attached, and the elastic force of the flip piece 10 is applied. Can be controlled.

  As shown in FIG. 3A, the bullet control mechanism B includes a control plate case 18 formed of a front cover 16 and a rear case 17, and a control plate 19 formed in a substantially U shape. If the front cover 16 is pressed against the rear case 17 in a state where the control plate 19 is accommodated in the rear case 17, hooks 20 and 21 formed on both side surfaces of the front cover 16 are formed on both side surfaces of the rear case 17. It is possible to constitute a bullet control mechanism B that engages with the respective locking projections 22 and 23 and fixes the front cover 16 to the rear case 17 and accommodates the control plate 19. The engagement control mechanism B can be attached to the toy main body by engaging a fitting shaft 28 and engaging plates 32 and 33, which will be described later, with the toy main body.

  The front cover 16 is formed with an opening 25 downward from the upper surface so that the above-described pushing member 6 can slide back and forth, and engaging plates protruding rearward from the connecting portion 11 of the flip piece 10 on both sides. 12 and a second cutout portion 27 for guiding an engagement plate 32 formed in the rear case 17 and engaged with the side surface of the toy main body 1 are formed on the front surface. A fitting shaft 28 that fits into a fitting hole (not shown) formed on the back surface of the toy main body 1 is formed so as to protrude forward.

  On the other hand, the rear case 17 is formed with an opening 30 downward from the upper surface so that the pushing member 6 can slide back and forth like the front cover 16, and when the control plate 19 is lowered at the lower end, the control plate 19 An engagement edge 31 is provided so as to engage with the bottom portion 19 a of the 19 and prevent the control plate 19 from dropping from the rear case 17.

  In addition, a rectangular engagement convex portion 38 is formed to project forward under the opening 30 on the inner side of the back surface, and the inner wall surface 19b (see FIG. 3B) of the control plate 19 is engaged to move up and down. In addition, the lower portion 19c of the control plate 19 is engaged with the engaging convex portion 38 to restrict the control plate 19 from rising more than necessary.

  Further, on both sides of the rear case 17, a locking projection 22 that engages with the hook 20 of the front cover 16 and a locking projection 23 that engages with the hook 21 are formed, and the toy protrudes forward. Engagement plates 32 and 33 that engage with the side surfaces of the main body 1 are formed to protrude, and an opening 34 that guides the engagement plate 12 that protrudes rearward from the connecting portion 11 of the flip piece 10 is formed.

  The control plate 19 is formed in an approximately U shape with an opening 35 so that the above-described pushing member 6 can slide back and forth. When the control plate 19 moves upward at the upper end, the control piece 19 is connected to the control plate 19. A stop plate 36 that engages with the inner surface of the engagement plate 12 protruding rearward from the portion 11 and stops the engagement plate 12 from bending inward is formed. A sensor plate 37 is formed on the bottom of the control plate 19 so as to protrude downward. The sensor plate 37 is formed in a size that does not engage with the engagement edge 31 of the rear case 17 described above, and is accommodated in the control plate case 18. When the control plate 19 moves down in the rear case 17 by its own weight in this state, the sensor plate 37 protrudes downward from the bottom surface of the control plate case 18. Note that the sensor plate 37 described above is more reliable if a biasing member (not shown) such as a spring is disposed in the control plate case 18 and can be pushed down by the biasing force of the biasing member. The plate 37 can be moved downward.

  According to the sphere launching toy A having the above configuration, as shown in FIG. 1A, in the state where the bottom surface of the toy body 1 is grounded to the game surface 40, as shown in FIG. 4 is in contact with the play surface 40, the control plate 19 moves up in the control plate case 18, and the stop plate 36 is moved backward from the connecting portion 11 of the flip piece 10 as shown in FIG. It will be in the position which opposes the engaging plate 12 which protruded.

  In this state, as shown in FIG. 5A, when the pushing member 6 is pushed to push the sphere 5 forward, the sphere 5 moves forward while pushing and spreading the flip piece 10. At this time, the tip 10a of the flipping piece 10 spreads outward with the connecting portion 11 as a fulcrum, but the engaging convex portion 13 of the engaging plate 12 can not bend inward by hitting the stop plate 36 of the control plate 19. The flip piece 10 is forcibly pushed out, and the moment when the maximum diameter of the sphere 5 passes the tip 10a of the flip piece 10, the flip piece 10 is fired forward with a strong resilience that returns to its original position. become. If the thickness of the stop plate 36 is increased, the stop plate 36 itself will not bend. Therefore, the bend of the engagement plate 12 can be suppressed more strongly, and the sphere 5 can be launched with a stronger force. Can do.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 6 (a), when the toy body 1 is lifted away from the play surface 10, the control plate 19 is lowered by its own weight, and the sensor plate 37 is lowered from the bottom surface of the control plate case 18. It will be in a state of protruding.

  In this state, as shown in FIG. 4B, the stop plate 36 is in a position where it is retracted downward from the engagement plate 12 protruding rearward of the flipping member 10 so as not to face. In this state, as shown in FIG. 5B, when the pushing member 6 is pushed to push the sphere 5 forward, the sphere 5 moves forward while spreading the flipping piece 10. The end 10a of the piece 10 spreads outward with the connecting portion 10 as a fulcrum, but the engaging plate 12 does not come into contact with the control plate 19 and therefore bends inward with the connecting portion 10 as a fulcrum, integrally with the flip piece 10. Therefore, the flip piece 10 can be expanded without requiring a strong force. When the maximum diameter of the sphere 5 passes through the tip 10a of the flip piece 10, the flip piece 10 returns to its original state. Since the force is small, the sphere 5 is gently fired forward and immediately falls on the playing surface 40 (see FIG. 6B).

  As described above, when the pushing member 6 is pushed and operated while the toy main body 1 is in contact with the play surface 40, the sphere 5 is vigorously launched, so that it can be aimed at the target or the opponent's sphere launch toy. You can play against A. At this time, since the sphere 5 to be fired rolls on the playing surface 40, it does not hit the player's face.

  On the other hand, even if the toy body 1 is moved away from the game surface 40 and the pushing member 6 is pushed in the air toward the game friends and the sphere 5 is fired, the resilience of the flip piece 10 is small, so the sphere 5 is fired. Since the player becomes gentle, the player can avoid the sphere 5 and can provide a safe sphere launch toy A because it does not hurt even if it hits.
