Description

  The present invention relates to a riding toy that an infant of about 1 and a half to 4 years old who has a weight of up to about 20 kg kicks the ground from himself and plays a game in a park, a playground, and other outdoor terrain.

  A riding toy (tricycle) that can also be used as a kick scooter (skater) is listed as a commercial product in Non-Patent Document 1. This is because the infant as shown in FIG. 15 straddles the saddle (1a) and uses it as a riding toy (tricycle) (A) that kicks the ground with both feet from itself and plays as shown in FIG. Can be selected as a kick scooter (Skater) (B), where one foot is placed on step (1b) and the remaining one foot kicks the ground to play the game. It is considered to be a publicly known technique that is most similar to the present invention in that it is performed by changing the same thing in (1a) and step (1b) to different installation heights.

  When the handle post (3) hanging from the handle bar (2) is used as a riding toy (tricycle) (A), it is shortened as shown in FIG. 15, while as a kick scooter (skater) (B). It is needless to say that when used as shown in FIG. (4) is a pair of left and right front wheels, and (5) is one rear wheel.

Little Tykes 2in1 Scooter From Tricycle to Kick Scooter Item No. LT-616112 [Search September 30, 2011] Internet <URL: http://item.rakuten.co.jp/paranino/lt-616112/>

  However, in the configuration of the commercial product shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the same thing as the saddle (1 a) or step (1 b) is transferred to the handle bearing head (7) of the toy body frame (6) with only the front end. Since it is merely a simple flat plate attached to the holding state, in particular, in a use state as a saddle (1a) that is levitated by a certain installation height (h1) from the toy body frame (6) as shown in FIG. It is inferior in strength to stably bear the weight of an infant straddling this, and is subject to repeated vibrations of the infant, which causes rattling and breakage at an early stage.

  On the other hand, in the use state as the step (1b) in which the saddle (1a) is lowered to the lowest position as shown in FIG. 16, the step (1b) is stacked on the toy body frame (6). If h2) is high and the height of an infant who puts one foot on this is low, not only is it difficult to use it, but there is also a risk of falling.

  Furthermore, the upper surface (horizontal seat surface) of the flat board used as the saddle (1a) of the riding toy (tricycle) (A) as shown in FIG. 15 is a kick scooter (skater) as shown in FIG. It is used as step (1b) of B), and one foot of the infant is put on it with shoes etc. put on it, so that the upper surface (horizontal footrest surface) of the flat plate is not only soiled, It is inevitable to be deformed or damaged at an early stage, and the durability is inferior in that sense.

  The present invention aims to drastically solve such problems, and in order to achieve the purpose, in claim 1, the toy body frame is attached to the saddle cradle of the toy body frame in a horizontal state with a fixed installation height. With the upper surface of the saddle as the seat surface, the toy is a riding toy that sits on the infant,

  The saddle can be used as a kick scooter in which an infant places one foot on the step surface that is turned upside down by converting the saddle to the saddle cradle by converting the front and back and upside down. It is characterized by comprising.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, the saddle cradle of the toy main body frame is formed into a substantially inverted H-shape in a side view in which an inclined wall surface and a horizontal floor surface intersect each other at an obtuse angle, and a saddle seat piece on the floor surface Sink the receiving ditch,

  The same obtuse angle as that of the saddle cradle is a leg piece that substantially corresponds to the slanted wall surface of the saddle cradle, and a horizontal stool piece that corresponds to the groove for receiving the saddle seat piece on the floor. Bently formed into an inverted heap shape in side view that intersects

  The saddle seat piece is fitted into the saddle seat receiving concave groove of the saddle cradle in a sinking state, and the upper front end of the leg piece in the saddle up-tilt posture is raised upward on the saddle cradle. While the infant can be used as a kick scooter that puts one foot on the stepped surface of the above-mentioned sitting board piece by detachably attaching and fixing it to the upper front end of the inclined wall surface through one horizontal skewer bolt,

  The saddle is converted into a substantially square shape when viewed from the front and back and upside down, and the lower rear end of the leg piece in a downward inclined posture is the rear end of the saddle seat piece receiving concave groove in the saddle cradle. In addition to being inserted into a slip-off preventing state, the upper front end of the seat piece in the saddle is detachably attached and fixed to the upper front end of the front rising inclined wall surface in the saddle cradle via the same single horizontal skewer bolt. Thus, it is defined that the infant can be used as a riding toy that sits on the seat surface facing upward on the seat piece.

  According to the third aspect of the present invention, the same horizontal first and second mounting stays are continuously projected in opposite directions from the front end of the leg piece and the front end of the seat piece forming the saddle. While forming a skewer bolt receiving through hole at the center of the mounting stay,

  The upper front edge of the front rising slope wall surface of the saddle cradle is recessed as a concave step surface for receiving the upper front edge of the saddle, and the left and right side surfaces that protrude relative to the depression are aligned with the skewer bolt receiving through holes on the saddle side. While forming a pair of skewer bolt receiving through holes that can communicate with each other,

  The saddle seat base piece receiving concave groove recessed from the horizontal floor of the saddle cradle is cut out in a communicating state with the lower rear end relief opening of the saddle and the lower rear end retaining tunnel,

  The first and second mounting stays on the saddle side can be attached interchangeably to the saddle upper front end receiving concave step surface and saddle lower rear end retaining tunnel on the saddle cradle side,

  In addition, either one of the first and second mounting stays, which are the lower rear end of the saddle, is merely inserted into the saddle lower rear end retaining tunnel of the saddle cradle as a sinking state,

  Similarly, the other one of the first and second mounting stays that become the upper front end of the saddle is placed on the saddle upper front end receiving concave step surface of the saddle receiving base, and the saddle side and the saddle receiving side communicate with each other. The skewer bolt is inserted and fixed to the front rising slope wall surface of the saddle cradle by a horizontal skewer bolt inserted from the lateral direction into the skewer bolt receiving through hole.

  In claim 4, the upper surface of the seat piece on which the infant in the saddle straddles and sits is used as a seat surface, and a plurality of concave stripes for preventing the child from slipping are arranged in the left-right direction on the seat surface,

  By converting the saddle back and forth and upside down, the upper surface of the sitting board piece on which the infant will place one foot is used as the step surface, and a number of protrusions for preventing the child from slipping are also applied to the step surface in the left-right direction. It is characterized by being lined up along.

  Further, the present invention is characterized in that a pair of hand-operated concave grooves that can be held with one hand are recessed in the left and right side surfaces of the leg piece that forms the saddle.

  According to the configuration of claim 1, the saddle of the riding toy is converted into the front and back and the upside down (front and back) and changed to the saddle cradle of the toy body frame. It can be used not only as a riding toy for kicking a car, but also as a kick scooter (skater) in which an infant puts one foot on a flipped saddle and kicks the ground with the remaining one foot.

  Moreover, since the saddle is used as a seat surface on which the infant sits on the top and bottom (front and back) and a step surface (tread surface) on which the infant places one foot, the conventional commercial products mentioned at the beginning Like the product, the seat surface is not likely to be soiled by one foot wearing shoes, etc., and it is necessary to perform frequent cleaning work every time it sits, and the saddle is deformed or damaged early. There is no fear.

  In addition, when used as a kick scooter (skater), the saddle converted upside down and back and forth is attached to the saddle cradle of the toy body frame, so that the step surface on which one foot of the infant is placed is placed. As the ground height is equivalent to the thickness of the saddle cradle, it will be secured extremely low, and as a result, anyone can use it safely and stably without being affected by the height difference of the infant, There is no risk of falling accidents like the commercial products mentioned at the beginning.

  In that case, if the structure of Claim 2 is employ | adopted, it respond | corresponds to this substantially with respect to the saddle cradle of the toy main body frame | shape which makes a substantially inverted H shape of a side view from a front rising inclination wall surface and a horizontal floor surface. By attaching the saddle that is bent and formed into a substantially inverted shape in a side view from the leg piece and the horizontal seat piece, as it is, the infant sits on the stepped surface facing the horizontal seat piece. It can be used as a kick scooter (skater), but the posture of the saddle is changed to a nearly square shape in the side view where the front and back and top and bottom (front and back) of the saddle are reversed. If it is installed by operation, it can be used as a riding toy where an infant sits on the surface of the horizontal seat piece that is turned upside down. Excellent.

  In particular, if the configuration of claim 3 is adopted, the first and second mounting stays formed on the saddle are identical to each other, and the saddle upper front end receiving recessed step surface and the saddle formed on the saddle cradle of the toy body frame Since the lower rear end retaining tunnel is the same as each other and has compatibility, it is easy to convert the front and rear and top and bottom (front and back) of the saddle, and the lower rear end of the saddle is missing from the lower rear end of the saddle cradle A horizontal skewer that can be inserted / removed from the side with only the upper front end of the saddle being received by the concave step surface of the saddle upper front end receiving recess of the saddle cradle. The bolts are attached and fixed to the slanted wall of the saddle cradle, and the operability of the mounting and removal is further improved. .

  Furthermore, if the structure of Claim 4 is employ | adopted, the upper and lower sides (front and back) of the horizontal seat piece in a saddle will be made into each separate seat surface and a step surface, and all keep it in the stable state where an infant does not slip during use. be able to. If the structure of Claim 5 is employ | adopted, when removing the leg piece of a saddle from the front rising inclination wall surface of a saddle cradle, there exists an effect which can perform the operation easily and conveniently.

It is a slope view which similarly shows the use condition as a kick scooter (skater).

  Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIGS. 1 to 4 show the use state as a riding toy (tricycle) (A), and (F) shows polyethylene, polypropylene, and the like. A toy body frame integrally molded (preferably blow-molded) from a thermoplastic resin, and a saddle cradle (10) having a substantially inverted H shape in a side view, and a handle bearing continuously extending from the front portion A head (11) and a rear axle bearing tail (12) extending continuously rearward from the rear portion of the saddle cradle (10) are also provided.

  Furthermore, as is clear from FIGS. 5 to 7 showing the toy body frame (F) extracted, the saddle cradle (10) has a front rising wall (10a) and a horizontal floor (10b). A nose cone-shaped handle bearing head that has a bent shape that intersects with an obtuse angle (preferably about 100 degrees) (α) and projects continuously forward and upward from the upper part of the upwardly inclined wall surface (10a). In (11), a handle receiving hole (13) is formed so as to penetrate rearward and in an inclined state.

  Further, the horizontal floor surface (10b) of the saddle cradle (10) is formed so as to gradually protrude in the lateral direction from the front to the rear, and the rear axle bearing tail narrowed from the center of the rear. (12) projects horizontally rearward by a certain length (E). (14) is a horizontal rear axle receiving hole penetrating the whole including the pair of left and right bearing bosses (15) in the axle bearing tail (12), and the horizontal rear axle (16) horizontally inserted and inserted therein is inserted. Thus, the pair of left and right rear wheels (17) are supported so as to be freely rotatable. The fender (not shown) of the wheel (17) may be bent continuously from the left and right side surfaces of the rear wheel bearing tail (12).

  A saddle receiving groove (G1) (G2) having a size and contour corresponding to a saddle (S), which will be described later, is a horizontal floor surface from the front rising inclined wall surface (10a) of the saddle cradle (10). It is formed into a whole series of depressed states extending to (10b).

  In this case, as is clear from FIG. 7, the saddle receiving concave groove recessed in the forwardly rising inclined wall surface (10a) is formed as a saddle leg base piece receiving concave groove (G1) having a relatively shallow depth. The saddle receiving concave groove recessed in the horizontal floor surface (10b) is formed as a saddle seat base receiving concave groove (G2) having a relatively deep depth.

  However, the reason why the saddle leg piece receiving groove (G1) on the inclined wall surface (10a) that rises forward is shallowly recessed is that a pair of left and right hand groove grooves that are recessed in the leg piece of the saddle (S) described later are shielded. Therefore, the formation of the saddle leg piece receiving groove (G1) may be omitted.

  Furthermore, an upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) of a saddle (S), which will be described later, communicates with the saddle leg piece receiving concave groove (G1) at the upper front end of the front rising inclined wall surface (10a), FIG. 7 is depressed in an inverted U-shape (U-shape opened rearward) in plan view. (W), (D), and (L) show the opening width, depth, and depth of the saddle upper front end receiving concave step surface (18).

  (19) is a skewer bolt receiving through hole that is distributed as a pair facing the left and right side wall surfaces that protrude relative to the depression, and one of the outer ends thereof is a skewer bolt for saddle fixing described later. The remaining other outer end portion is opened in a square shape (preferably hexagonal shape) for preventing rotation of a fixing nut, which will be described later.

  Further, a lower rear end relief port (20) of the saddle (S) is provided at the rear end portion (boundary portion with the rear wheel bearing tail) of the horizontal floor surface (10b), and the saddle seat base piece receiving concave groove. It is cut out in a bottomless state as shown in FIGS. 5 and 7 communicating with (G2). (21) is a lower rear end retaining tunnel of the saddle (S) that matches and communicates with the same opening width (W) as the lower rear end escape port (20) of the saddle (S), and its ceiling surface (21c) To keep the lower rear end of the saddle (S) in a retaining state.

  That is, the saddle (S) is similar to the saddle (S) as compared to the case where the upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) of the saddle (S) is in the upwardly open state as shown in FIG. The lower rear end retaining tunnel (21) has substantially the same opening width (W), depth (D) and depth (L) as the upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) of the saddle (S). It is in a downward opening state opposite to the concave step surface (18) for receiving the upper front end, and smoothly sinks from the lower rear end escape port (20) of the saddle (S) to the inside of the saddle lower rear end retaining tunnel (21). The ceiling surface (21c) can prevent the lower rear end of the inserted saddle (S) from slipping upward.

  In addition, the upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) of the saddle (S) has a lower portion of the saddle (S) as compared to an inverted U shape (U shape that opens rearward) in plan view as shown in FIG. The rear end retaining tunnel (21) has a U-shape (U-shape that opens frontward) facing from the front-rear direction, so that the contour shape and size are substantially the same, and the saddle (S) The upper front end and the lower rear end of the can be received and restrained interchangeably.

  (22) is a front fork made of an inverted U-shaped metal plate (preferably a steel plate), and a stem (23) of a metal tube (also a steel tube) that stands up from there is a handle in the toy body frame (F). The bearing head (11) is inserted through and penetrated into the handle receiving hole (13) from below.

  (24) is a front fork cover made of thermoplastic resin that also serves as a fender for the front wheel, and is integrated into the stem (23) of the front fork (22). (25) is a horizontal front axle fixedly mounted horizontally on the lower end of the front fork (22) and the front fork cover (24), and supports one front wheel (26) in a freely rotatable manner. .

  Further, (27) is a handle post of a metal tube (preferably a steel tube) that is removably inserted into the stem (23) of the front fork (22) from above, and is a thermoplastic covering the fitting portion. A resin-made connecting cover (28) and a connecting bolt / nut (29) that also penetrates the fitting portion can be rotated integrally with the front fork (22).

  In that case, at least a pair of upper and lower connection bolt receiving holes (30a) (30b) are distributed in the handle post (27) fitted to the stem (23) of the front fork (22) and the connection cover (28). The handle post (27) is fixed and maintained in a short and shortened standing state as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 by inserting the connection bolt / nut (29) into the connection bolt receiving hole (30a) on the upper side. By pulling out the connecting bolt / nut (29) and replacing it with the lower connecting bolt receiving hole (30b), the handle post (27) is also stretched tall as shown in FIGS. Can be fixed and maintained.

  In any case, a handle bar (31) made of thermoplastic resin is attached and fixed to the upper end portion of the handle post (27) in a covered state via a pair of upper and lower through bolts and nuts (32). Therefore, when the infant holds and holds it with both hands, the front wheel (26) can be steered. Reference numeral (33) denotes a pair of upper and lower thermoplastic resin spacers inserted into the handle receiving hole (13) of the handle bearing head (11) and sealed.

  The saddle (S) mentioned above is made of the same thermoplastic resin as the toy main body frame (F), such as polyethylene or polypropylene, and the side surface corresponding to the saddle receiving groove (G1) (G2) of the saddle cradle (10). It is integrally molded (preferably blow-molded) into a generally inverted inverted shape, and it is applied to the toy body frame (F) as shown in FIGS. If it is attached so as to be shaped like a letter, it can be used as a riding toy (tricycle) (A) that allows an infant to sit on the saddle (S).

  That is, as shown in FIGS. 8 to 10, the saddle (S) is substantially the same as the saddle pedestal piece receiving groove (G1) recessed in the upwardly inclined wall surface (10a) of the saddle cradle (10). A comparatively matching comparison with a relatively short leg piece (34a) correspondingly matched with a saddle seat piece receiving groove (G2) recessed in the horizontal floor surface (10b) of the saddle cradle (10). And the base plate piece (34a) and the base plate piece (34b) cross at the same obtuse angle (preferably about 100 degrees) (α) as the saddle cradle (10). It has a bent shape.

  Moreover, the upper surface (surface) of the horizontal seat piece (34b) on which the infant straddles when used as the saddle (S) is formed as a smooth concave surface in side view as the seat surface (35). On the other hand, the lower surface (back surface) of the seat piece (34b) is a step surface (tread surface) (36) on which an infant puts one foot. Here, a number of protrusions (37) for preventing one foot from slipping are provided on the left and right sides. It is lined up along the direction.

  A plurality of concave strips (38) for preventing a child from slipping are arranged in the left-right direction on the inclined surface that rises rearward of the seat surface (35), and the seat surface (35) is raised. The rear end is edged in an arc shape in plan view. (39) is a pair of hand-operated concave grooves recessed in the left and right side surfaces of the leg piece (34a) in the saddle (S), and an infant guard or the like removes the saddle (S) from the toy body frame (F). When removing, use to hold and hold one hand.

  Further, of the relatively short leg piece (34a) and the relatively long seat piece (34b) of the saddle (S) that bends substantially in the shape of a side when viewed from the side as shown in FIGS. A dowel-shaped (square bar-shaped) first mounting stay (40) having a constant width (X), length (Y) and thickness (Z) from the tip of (34a) is a seat piece (34b) Is bent in a substantially right angle (β) in the opposite direction (outward) and is in a horizontal state substantially parallel to the seat piece (34b).

  On the other hand, a dowel shape (square bar shape) having the same constant width (X), length (Y) and thickness (Z) as the first mounting stay (40) also from the tip of the seat piece (34b). The second mounting stay (41) projects substantially horizontally in the extending direction of the seat surface (35) (outward opposite to the projecting direction of the first mounting stay), and the first mounting stay (40 ) And almost parallel.

  Reference numeral (42) denotes the same skewer bolt receiving through hole formed at the center of the first and second mounting stays (40) and (41), and the skewer bolt receiving through hole on the saddle receiving base (10) side. A long skewer bolt (43) for fixing the saddle, which will be described later, is inserted into the hole (19) in a freely detachable manner from the lateral direction, and a fixing nut (44) is fastened to the tip thereof. Will be.

  In addition, the first and second mounting stays (40), (41) of the saddle (S) are provided with a saddle upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) formed on the saddle receiving base (10) and a saddle lower rear end slip-off. As with the tunnel (21), the entire saddle bolt receiving through hole (42) is interchangeable in size and shape, and the saddle (S) is used as a saddle cradle for the toy body frame (F). To (10), the front and back and the top and bottom (front and back) can be converted into opposite directions and used.

  Therefore, when used as a riding toy (tricycle) (A) as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the saddle (S) is formed in a substantially downwardly-shaped saddle (S) as viewed from the side, and stands in a downwardly inclined posture (forwardly inclined posture). The horizontal first mounting stay (40) that bends outward (rearward) from the front end (lower rear end) of the leg piece (34a) to be moved is first relieved of the saddle lower rear end of the saddle cradle (10). It inserts in the state which sinks into the inside of a saddle lower rear end retaining tunnel (21) from a mouth (20).

  Next, a horizontal second mounting stay (41) extending outward (forward) from the front end (upper front end) of the seat piece (34b) in the saddle (S) is extended to the saddle of the saddle cradle (10). After being placed on the upper front end receiving concave step surface (18), the saddle bolt receiving through hole (19) (42) on the saddle (S) side and the saddle receiving base (10) side are connected to each other. One long skewer bolt (43) is inserted and penetrated from the direction, and the fixing nut (44) is fastened to the tip of the skewer bolt (43), so that the saddle (S) is attached to the toy body frame (F). The saddle cradle (10) is attached to and fixed to the inclined wall surface (10a).

  Then, the saddle cradle (10) of the toy body frame (F) is formed by the leg piece (34a) in which the seat piece (34b) of the saddle (S) stands in the rear-falling inclination position (front rising inclination position). Therefore, the infant sits on the seat surface (35) of the seat piece (34b) and sits on both feet. Can kick the ground and run.

  In this case, the saddle seat base receiving groove (G2) having a relatively deep saddle cradle (10) is left in an upwardly opened state. ), And the saddle seat receiving groove (G2) has a saddle lower rear end relief opening (20) that is open to the bottom without communicating with the saddle seat piece. Conveniently, foreign matter such as earth and sand collected inside the receiving concave groove (G2) can be swept out of the saddle lower rear end escape port (20) and dropped when not in use.

  When used as a riding toy (tricycle) (A) that sits on the saddle (S) as described above, as is apparent from FIGS. The connecting bolt / nut (29) is inserted into the bolt receiving hole (30b), and the handlebar (31) is held in a low and fixed state that can be gripped and manipulated by an infant sitting on the seat surface (35).

  On the other hand, when used as a kick scooter (skater) (B) as shown in FIGS. 11 to 14, the saddle (S) in the state of FIGS. Once removed from the saddle cradle (10) of the main body frame (F), it is converted into a substantially inverted square shape in front and back and upside down.

  First, a horizontal second mounting stay (41) extending outward (rearward) from the front end (lower rear end) of the seat piece (34b) in the saddle (S) is extended to the saddle cradle (10). The saddle lower rear end escape opening (20) is inserted into the inside of the saddle lower rear end retaining tunnel (21) so as to be submerged.

  Next, the horizontal first mounting stay (40) that bends outward (forward) from the front end (upper front end) of the leg piece (34a) that stands up as a forwardly inclined posture of the saddle (S) is also mounted on the saddle. After being placed on the saddle upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) of the cradle (10), the skewer bolt receiving through-holes (19) on the saddle (S) side and the saddle cradle (10) side are in communication with each other. ) (42), the same skewer bolt (43) is inserted into and penetrated from the lateral direction, and a fixing nut (44) is fastened to the tip of the saddle (S) so that the saddle (S) is attached to the toy body frame (F). The saddle cradle (10) is attached and fixed to the same front rising inclined wall surface (10a).

  Then, the saddle seat receiving piece in the deep saddle seat where the seat piece (34b) of the saddle (S) is depressed in the horizontal floor surface (10b) of the saddle cradle (10) in the toy body frame (F). (G2), the step surface (36), which is fitted in a completely submerged state and the seat piece (34b) is inverted upward, and the floor surface (10b) of the saddle cradle (10) are mutually connected. In addition to forming a stepless uniform upper surface (surface), the step height (36) of the step surface (36) is ensured to be extremely low.

  Therefore, the infant can safely place the one foot on the step surface (36) of the above-mentioned seat piece (34b) safely and stably, and can run while kicking the ground with the remaining one foot. It is always easy to use.

  When used as such a kick scooter (Skater) (B), as is apparent from FIGS. 11 to 14, the connecting bolt and nut are connected to the upper connecting bolt receiving hole (30a) in the handle post (27). (29) is replaced, and the handlebar (31) is maintained in a tall fixed state that can be held and manipulated by an infant standing on the step surface (36).

  First, the saddle (S) is used from a state of use as a riding toy (tricycle) (A) as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 to a state of use as a kick scooter (skater) (B) as shown in FIGS. I explained that the front and back and the top and bottom (front and back) are reversed and attached, but the saddle (from the use state as the kick scooter (skater) (B) to the use state as the riding toy (tricycle) (A) ( Of course, S) can be changed, and the attaching / detaching operation is the same.

  In this case, the pair of left and right hand-operated concave grooves (39) recessed in the leg piece (34a) of the saddle (S) in the use state of FIGS. Since it is not shielded by (10a) and is open in the lateral direction, when the leg piece (34a) of the saddle (S) is removed from the saddle cradle (10) of the toy body frame (F) The hand-operated concave groove (39) can be held with one hand and is extremely convenient.

  Further, the saddle (S) is changed from a use state as a riding toy (tricycle) (A) as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 to a use state as a kick scooter (skater) (B) as shown in FIGS. In any case of conversion to the opposite direction, the lower rear end of the saddle (S) is inside the saddle lower rear end retaining tunnel (21) formed on the saddle cradle (10) of the toy body frame (F). The saddle upper portion only needs to be inserted / removed in a sunk state, and only the upper front end of the saddle (S) is provided on the saddle upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) formed on the front rising inclined wall surface (10a) of the saddle receiving base (10). It is sufficient to attach and detach the saddle fixing skewer bolt (43), which can be inserted and removed, on the inclined wall surface (10a) that rises forward. Conversion and the installation work of the saddle cradle to (10), is so to speak, the light can be performed in the one-touch-operated.

  The present invention relates to a riding toy that an infant of about 1 and a half to 4 years old who has a weight of up to about 20 kg kicks the ground from himself and plays a game in a park, a playground, and other outdoor terrain.

  A riding toy (tricycle) that can also be used as a kick scooter (skater) is listed as a commercial product in Non-Patent Document 1. This is because the infant as shown in FIG. 15 straddles the saddle (1a) and uses it as a riding toy (tricycle) (A) that kicks the ground with both feet from itself and plays as shown in FIG. Can be selected as a kick scooter (Skater) (B), where one foot is placed on step (1b) and the remaining one foot kicks the ground to play the game. It is considered to be a publicly known technique that is most similar to the present invention in that it is performed by changing the same thing in (1a) and step (1b) to different installation heights.

  When the handle post (3) hanging from the handle bar (2) is used as a riding toy (tricycle) (A), it is shortened as shown in FIG. 15, while as a kick scooter (skater) (B). It is needless to say that when used as shown in FIG. (4) is a pair of left and right front wheels, and (5) is one rear wheel.

Little Tykes 2in1 Scooter From Tricycle to Kick Scooter Item No. LT-616112 [Search September 30, 2011] Internet <URL: http://item.rakuten.co.jp/paranino/lt-616112/>

  However, in the configuration of the commercial product shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the same thing as the saddle (1 a) or step (1 b) is transferred to the handle bearing head (7) of the toy body frame (6) with only the front end. Since it is merely a simple flat plate attached to the holding state, in particular, in a use state as a saddle (1a) that is levitated by a certain installation height (h1) from the toy body frame (6) as shown in FIG. It is inferior in strength to stably bear the weight of an infant straddling this, and is subject to repeated vibrations of the infant, which causes rattling and breakage at an early stage.

  On the other hand, in the use state as the step (1b) in which the saddle (1a) is lowered to the lowest position as shown in FIG. 16, the step (1b) is stacked on the toy body frame (6). If h2) is high and the height of an infant who puts one foot on this is low, not only is it difficult to use it, but there is also a risk of falling.

  Furthermore, the upper surface (horizontal seat surface) of the flat board used as the saddle (1a) of the riding toy (tricycle) (A) as shown in FIG. 15 is a kick scooter (skater) as shown in FIG. It is used as step (1b) of B), and one foot of the infant is put on it with shoes etc. put on it, so that the upper surface (horizontal footrest surface) of the flat plate is not only soiled, It is inevitable to be deformed or damaged at an early stage, and the durability is inferior in that sense.

The present invention is intended to drastically solve such problems, and in order to achieve the purpose, in claim 1, the saddle cradle of the toy body frame is lifted forward, and the inclined wall surface and the horizontal floor surface are obtuse. It is shaped into an almost inverted H-shape in a side view that crosses into the saddle, and the saddle seat receiving concave groove of the saddle is recessed in the floor surface,

The same obtuse angle as that of the saddle cradle is a leg piece that substantially corresponds to the slanted wall surface of the saddle cradle, and a horizontal stool piece that corresponds to the groove for receiving the saddle seat piece on the floor. Bently formed into an inverted heap shape in side view that intersects

The saddle seat piece is fitted into the saddle seat receiving concave groove of the saddle cradle in a sinking state, and the upper front end of the leg piece in the saddle up-tilt posture is raised upward on the saddle cradle. While the infant can be used as a kick scooter that puts one foot on the stepped surface of the above-mentioned sitting board piece by detachably attaching and fixing it to the upper front end of the inclined wall surface through one horizontal skewer bolt,

The saddle is converted into a substantially square shape when viewed from the front and back and upside down, and the lower rear end of the leg piece in a downward inclined posture is the rear end of the saddle seat piece receiving concave groove in the saddle cradle. In addition to being inserted into a slip-off preventing state, the upper front end of the seat piece in the saddle is detachably attached and fixed to the upper front end of the front rising inclined wall surface in the saddle cradle via the same single horizontal skewer bolt. Thus, it is defined that the infant can be used as a riding toy that sits on the seat surface facing upward on the seat piece.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the same horizontal first and second mounting stays are continuously projected from the front end portion of the leg piece and the front end portion of the seat piece forming the saddle in opposite directions, and the first thereof. 2 while forming a skewer bolt receiving through hole at the center of each mounting stay,

The upper front edge of the front rising slope wall surface of the saddle cradle is recessed as a concave step surface for receiving the upper front edge of the saddle, and the left and right side surfaces that protrude relative to the depression are aligned with the skewer bolt receiving through holes on the saddle side. While forming a pair of skewer bolt receiving through holes that can communicate with each other,

The saddle seat base piece receiving concave groove recessed from the horizontal floor of the saddle cradle is cut out in a communicating state with the lower rear end relief opening of the saddle and the lower rear end retaining tunnel,

The first and second mounting stays on the saddle side can be attached interchangeably to the saddle upper front end receiving concave step surface and saddle lower rear end retaining tunnel on the saddle cradle side,

In addition, either one of the first and second mounting stays, which are the lower rear end of the saddle, is merely inserted into the saddle lower rear end retaining tunnel of the saddle cradle as a sinking state,

Similarly, the other one of the first and second mounting stays that become the upper front end of the saddle is placed on the saddle upper front end receiving concave step surface of the saddle receiving base, and the saddle side and the saddle receiving side communicate with each other. The skewer bolt is inserted and fixed to the front rising slope wall surface of the saddle cradle by a horizontal skewer bolt inserted from the lateral direction into the skewer bolt receiving through hole.

In claim 3, the upper surface of the seat piece on which the infant in the saddle straddles and sits is used as a seat surface, and a plurality of concave stripes for preventing the child from slipping are arranged side by side in the left-right direction on the seat surface.

By converting the saddle back and forth and upside down, the upper surface of the sitting board piece on which the infant will place one foot is used as the step surface, and a number of protrusions for preventing the child from slipping are also applied to the step surface in the left-right direction. It is characterized by being lined up along.

Further, according to a fourth aspect of the present invention, a pair of hand-operated concave grooves that can be held with one hand are recessed in the left and right side surfaces of the leg piece that forms the saddle.

According to the configuration of claim 1, the saddle cradle of the toy main body frame that is substantially inverted H-shaped in a side view from the upwardly inclined wall surface and the horizontal floor surface, and the corresponding leg plate piece and the horizontal A kick scooter that allows an infant to place one foot on the stepped surface facing the horizontal seating piece by attaching the saddle that is bent in a substantially inverted shape in a side view from a simple seating piece, as it is. (Skater), you can get a state of use as a skater, but if you change the posture into a nearly square shape in side view where the front and back of the saddle and the top and bottom (front and back) are reversed, and attach it to the saddle cradle of the toy body frame by the same detachment operation, It is possible to obtain a use state as a riding toy where an infant straddles and sits on the horizontally inverted seat surface of the horizontal seat piece, which is excellent in stability and convenience in use.

In other words, the saddle of a riding toy can be used as a riding toy that kicks the ground with both feet that an infant sits on by simply converting the saddle of the riding to the front and back (upside down) and changing it to the saddle cradle of the toy body frame. In addition, it can be used as a kick scooter (skater) in which an infant puts one foot on the flipped saddle and kicks the ground with the remaining one foot.

Moreover, since the saddle is used as a seat surface on which the infant sits on the top and bottom (front and back) and a step surface (tread surface) on which the infant places one foot, the conventional commercial products mentioned at the beginning Like the product, the seat surface is not likely to be soiled by one foot wearing shoes, etc., and it is necessary to perform frequent cleaning work every time it sits, and the saddle is deformed or damaged early. There is no fear.

In addition, when used as a kick scooter (skater), the saddle converted upside down and back and forth is attached to the saddle cradle of the toy body frame, so that the step surface on which one foot of the infant is placed is placed. As the ground height is equivalent to the thickness of the saddle cradle, it will be secured extremely low, and as a result, anyone can use it safely and stably without being affected by the height difference of the infant, There is no risk of falling accidents like the commercial products mentioned at the beginning.

In particular, if the configuration of claim 2 is adopted, the first and second mounting stays formed on the saddle are identical to each other, and the saddle upper front end receiving recessed step surface and the saddle formed on the saddle cradle of the toy body frame Since the lower rear end retaining tunnel is the same as each other and has compatibility, it is easy to convert the front and rear and top and bottom (front and back) of the saddle, and the lower rear end of the saddle is missing from the lower rear end of the saddle cradle A horizontal skewer that can be inserted / removed from the side with only the upper front end of the saddle being received by the concave step surface of the saddle upper front end receiving recess of the saddle cradle. The bolts are attached and fixed to the slanted wall of the saddle cradle, and the operability of the mounting and removal is further improved. .

Furthermore, if the structure of Claim 3 is employ | adopted, the upper and lower sides (front and back) of the horizontal seat piece in a saddle will be made into each separate seat surface and a step surface, and all keep it in the stable state which an infant does not slip in use. be able to. If the structure of Claim 4 is employ | adopted, when removing the foot piece of a saddle from the front rising inclination wall surface of a saddle cradle, there exists an effect which can perform the operation easily and conveniently.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIGS. 1 to 4 show the use state as a riding toy (tricycle) (A), and (F) shows polyethylene, polypropylene, and the like. A toy body frame integrally molded (preferably blow-molded) from a thermoplastic resin, and a saddle cradle (10) having a substantially inverted H shape in a side view, and a handle bearing continuously extending from the front portion A head (11) and a rear axle bearing tail (12) extending continuously rearward from the rear portion of the saddle cradle (10) are also provided.

Furthermore, as is clear from FIGS. 5 to 7 showing the toy body frame (F) extracted, the saddle cradle (10) has a front rising wall (10a) and a horizontal floor (10b). A nose cone-shaped handle bearing head that has a bent shape that intersects with an obtuse angle (preferably about 100 degrees) (α) and projects continuously forward and upward from the upper part of the upwardly inclined wall surface (10a). In (11), a handle receiving hole (13) is formed so as to penetrate rearward and in an inclined state.

Further, the horizontal floor surface (10b) of the saddle cradle (10) is formed so as to gradually protrude in the lateral direction from the front to the rear, and the rear axle bearing tail narrowed from the center of the rear. (12) projects horizontally rearward by a certain length (E). (14) is a horizontal rear axle receiving hole penetrating the whole including the pair of left and right bearing bosses (15) in the axle bearing tail (12), and the horizontal rear axle (16) horizontally inserted and inserted therein is inserted. Thus, the pair of left and right rear wheels (17) are supported so as to be freely rotatable. The fender (not shown) of the wheel (17) may be bent continuously from the left and right side surfaces of the rear wheel bearing tail (12).

A saddle receiving groove (G1) (G2) having a size and contour corresponding to a saddle (S), which will be described later, is a horizontal floor surface from the front rising inclined wall surface (10a) of the saddle cradle (10). It is formed into a whole series of depressed states extending to (10b).

In this case, as is clear from FIG. 7, the saddle receiving concave groove recessed in the forwardly rising inclined wall surface (10a) is formed as a saddle leg base piece receiving concave groove (G1) having a relatively shallow depth. The saddle receiving concave groove recessed in the horizontal floor surface (10b) is formed as a saddle seat base receiving concave groove (G2) having a relatively deep depth.

However, the reason why the saddle leg piece receiving groove (G1) on the inclined wall surface (10a) that rises forward is shallowly recessed is that a pair of left and right hand groove grooves that are recessed in the leg piece of the saddle (S) described later are shielded. Therefore, the formation of the saddle leg piece receiving groove (G1) may be omitted.

Furthermore, an upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) of a saddle (S), which will be described later, communicates with the saddle leg piece receiving concave groove (G1) at the upper front end of the front rising inclined wall surface (10a), FIG. 7 is depressed in an inverted U-shape (U-shape opened rearward) in plan view. (W), (D), and (L) show the opening width, depth, and depth of the saddle upper front end receiving concave step surface (18).

(19) is a skewer bolt receiving through hole that is distributed as a pair facing the left and right side wall surfaces that protrude relative to the depression, and one of the outer ends thereof is a skewer bolt for saddle fixing described later. The remaining other outer end portion is opened in a square shape (preferably hexagonal shape) for preventing rotation of a fixing nut, which will be described later.

Further, a lower rear end relief port (20) of the saddle (S) is provided at the rear end portion (boundary portion with the rear wheel bearing tail) of the horizontal floor surface (10b), and the saddle seat base piece receiving concave groove. It is cut out in a bottomless state as shown in FIGS. 5 and 7 communicating with (G2). (21) is a lower rear end retaining tunnel of the saddle (S) that matches and communicates with the same opening width (W) as the lower rear end escape port (20) of the saddle (S), and its ceiling surface (21c) To keep the lower rear end of the saddle (S) in a retaining state.

That is, the saddle (S) is similar to the saddle (S) as compared to the case where the upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) of the saddle (S) is in the upwardly open state as shown in FIG. The lower rear end retaining tunnel (21) has substantially the same opening width (W), depth (D) and depth (L) as the upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) of the saddle (S). It is in a downward opening state opposite to the concave step surface (18) for receiving the upper front end, and smoothly sinks from the lower rear end escape port (20) of the saddle (S) to the inside of the saddle lower rear end retaining tunnel (21). The ceiling surface (21c) can prevent the lower rear end of the inserted saddle (S) from slipping upward.

In addition, the upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) of the saddle (S) has a lower portion of the saddle (S) as compared to an inverted U shape (U shape that opens rearward) in plan view as shown in FIG. The rear end retaining tunnel (21) has a U-shape (U-shape that opens frontward) facing from the front-rear direction, so that the contour shape and size are substantially the same, and the saddle (S) The upper front end and the lower rear end of the can be received and restrained interchangeably.

(22) is a front fork made of an inverted U-shaped metal plate (preferably a steel plate), and a stem (23) of a metal tube (also a steel tube) that stands up from there is a handle in the toy body frame (F). The bearing head (11) is inserted through and penetrated into the handle receiving hole (13) from below.

(24) is a front fork cover made of thermoplastic resin that also serves as a fender for the front wheel, and is integrated into the stem (23) of the front fork (22). (25) is a horizontal front axle fixedly mounted horizontally on the lower end of the front fork (22) and the front fork cover (24), and supports one front wheel (26) in a freely rotatable manner. .

Further, (27) is a handle post of a metal tube (preferably a steel tube) that is removably inserted into the stem (23) of the front fork (22) from above, and is a thermoplastic covering the fitting portion. A resin-made connecting cover (28) and a connecting bolt / nut (29) that also penetrates the fitting portion can be rotated integrally with the front fork (22).

In that case, at least a pair of upper and lower connection bolt receiving holes (30a) (30b) are distributed in the handle post (27) fitted to the stem (23) of the front fork (22) and the connection cover (28). The handle post (27) is fixed and maintained in a short and shortened standing state as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 by inserting the connection bolt / nut (29) into the connection bolt receiving hole (30a) on the upper side. By pulling out the connecting bolt / nut (29) and replacing it with the lower connecting bolt receiving hole (30b), the handle post (27) is also stretched tall as shown in FIGS. Can be fixed and maintained.

In any case, a handle bar (31) made of thermoplastic resin is attached and fixed to the upper end portion of the handle post (27) in a covered state via a pair of upper and lower through bolts and nuts (32). Therefore, when the infant holds and holds it with both hands, the front wheel (26) can be steered. Reference numeral (33) denotes a pair of upper and lower thermoplastic resin spacers inserted into the handle receiving hole (13) of the handle bearing head (11) and sealed.

The saddle (S) mentioned above is made of the same thermoplastic resin as the toy main body frame (F), such as polyethylene or polypropylene, and the side surface corresponding to the saddle receiving groove (G1) (G2) of the saddle cradle (10). It is integrally molded (preferably blow-molded) into a generally inverted inverted shape, and it is applied to the toy body frame (F) as shown in FIGS. If it is attached so as to be shaped like a letter, it can be used as a riding toy (tricycle) (A) that allows an infant to sit on the saddle (S).

That is, as shown in FIGS. 8 to 10, the saddle (S) is substantially the same as the saddle pedestal piece receiving groove (G1) recessed in the upwardly inclined wall surface (10a) of the saddle cradle (10). A comparatively matching comparison with a relatively short leg piece (34a) correspondingly matched with a saddle seat piece receiving groove (G2) recessed in the horizontal floor surface (10b) of the saddle cradle (10). And the base plate piece (34a) and the base plate piece (34b) cross at the same obtuse angle (preferably about 100 degrees) (α) as the saddle cradle (10). It has a bent shape.

Moreover, the upper surface (surface) of the horizontal seat piece (34b) on which the infant straddles when used as the saddle (S) is formed as a smooth concave surface in side view as the seat surface (35). On the other hand, the lower surface (back surface) of the seat piece (34b) is a step surface (tread surface) (36) on which an infant puts one foot. Here, a number of protrusions (37) for preventing one foot from slipping are provided on the left and right sides. It is lined up along the direction.

A plurality of concave strips (38) for preventing a child from slipping are arranged in the left-right direction on the inclined surface that rises rearward of the seat surface (35), and the seat surface (35) is raised. The rear end is edged in an arc shape in plan view. (39) is a pair of hand-operated concave grooves recessed in the left and right side surfaces of the leg piece (34a) in the saddle (S), and an infant guard or the like removes the saddle (S) from the toy body frame (F). When removing, use to hold and hold one hand.

Further, of the relatively short leg piece (34a) and the relatively long seat piece (34b) of the saddle (S) that bends substantially in the shape of a side when viewed from the side as shown in FIGS. A dowel-shaped (square bar-shaped) first mounting stay (40) having a constant width (X), length (Y) and thickness (Z) from the tip of (34a) is a seat piece (34b) Is bent in a substantially right angle (β) in the opposite direction (outward) and is in a horizontal state substantially parallel to the seat piece (34b).

On the other hand, a dowel shape (square bar shape) having the same constant width (X), length (Y) and thickness (Z) as the first mounting stay (40) also from the tip of the seat piece (34b). The second mounting stay (41) projects substantially horizontally in the extending direction of the seat surface (35) (outward opposite to the projecting direction of the first mounting stay), and the first mounting stay (40 ) And almost parallel.

Reference numeral (42) denotes the same skewer bolt receiving through hole formed at the center of the first and second mounting stays (40) and (41), and the skewer bolt receiving through hole on the saddle receiving base (10) side. A long skewer bolt (43) for fixing the saddle, which will be described later, is inserted into the hole (19) in a freely detachable manner from the lateral direction, and a fixing nut (44) is fastened to the tip thereof. Will be.

In addition, the first and second mounting stays (40), (41) of the saddle (S) are provided with a saddle upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) formed on the saddle receiving base (10) and a saddle lower rear end slip-off. As with the tunnel (21), the entire saddle bolt receiving through hole (42) is interchangeable in size and shape, and the saddle (S) is used as a saddle cradle for the toy body frame (F). To (10), the front and back and the top and bottom (front and back) can be converted into opposite directions and used.

Therefore, when used as a riding toy (tricycle) (A) as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the saddle (S) is formed in a substantially downwardly-shaped saddle (S) as viewed from the side, and stands in a downwardly inclined posture (forwardly inclined posture). The horizontal first mounting stay (40) that bends outward (rearward) from the front end (lower rear end) of the leg piece (34a) to be moved is first relieved of the saddle lower rear end of the saddle cradle (10). It inserts in the state which sinks into the inside of a saddle lower rear end retaining tunnel (21) from a mouth (20).

Next, a horizontal second mounting stay (41) extending outward (forward) from the front end (upper front end) of the seat piece (34b) in the saddle (S) is extended to the saddle of the saddle cradle (10). After being placed on the upper front end receiving concave step surface (18), the saddle bolt receiving through hole (19) (42) on the saddle (S) side and the saddle receiving base (10) side are connected to each other. One long skewer bolt (43) is inserted and penetrated from the direction, and the fixing nut (44) is fastened to the tip of the skewer bolt (43), so that the saddle (S) is attached to the toy body frame (F). The saddle cradle (10) is attached to and fixed to the inclined wall surface (10a).

Then, the saddle cradle (10) of the toy body frame (F) is formed by the leg piece (34a) in which the seat piece (34b) of the saddle (S) stands in the rear-falling inclination position (front rising inclination position). Therefore, the infant sits on the seat surface (35) of the seat piece (34b) and sits on both feet. Can kick the ground and run.

In this case, the saddle seat base receiving groove (G2) having a relatively deep saddle cradle (10) is left in an upwardly opened state. ), And the saddle seat receiving groove (G2) has a saddle lower rear end relief opening (20) that is open to the bottom without communicating with the saddle seat piece. Conveniently, foreign matter such as earth and sand collected inside the receiving concave groove (G2) can be swept out of the saddle lower rear end escape port (20) and dropped when not in use.

When used as a riding toy (tricycle) (A) that sits on the saddle (S) as described above, as is apparent from FIGS. The connecting bolt / nut (29) is inserted into the bolt receiving hole (30b), and the handlebar (31) is held in a low and fixed state that can be gripped and manipulated by an infant sitting on the seat surface (35).

On the other hand, when used as a kick scooter (skater) (B) as shown in FIGS. 11 to 14, the saddle (S) in the state of FIGS. Once removed from the saddle cradle (10) of the main body frame (F), it is converted into a substantially inverted square shape in front and back and upside down.

First, a horizontal second mounting stay (41) extending outward (rearward) from the front end (lower rear end) of the seat piece (34b) in the saddle (S) is extended to the saddle cradle (10). The saddle lower rear end escape opening (20) is inserted into the inside of the saddle lower rear end retaining tunnel (21) so as to be submerged.

Next, the horizontal first mounting stay (40) that bends outward (forward) from the front end (upper front end) of the leg piece (34a) that stands up as a forwardly inclined posture of the saddle (S) is also mounted on the saddle. After being placed on the saddle upper front end receiving concave step surface (18) of the cradle (10), the skewer bolt receiving through-holes (19) on the saddle (S) side and the saddle cradle (10) side are in communication with each other. ) (42), the same skewer bolt (43) is inserted into and penetrated from the lateral direction, and a fixing nut (44) is fastened to the tip of the saddle (S) so that the saddle (S) is attached to the toy body frame (F). The saddle cradle (10) is attached and fixed to the same front rising inclined wall surface (10a).

Then, the saddle seat receiving piece in the deep saddle seat where the seat piece (34b) of the saddle (S) is depressed in the horizontal floor surface (10b) of the saddle cradle (10) in the toy body frame (F). (G2), the step surface (36), which is fitted in a completely submerged state and the seat piece (34b) is inverted upward, and the floor surface (10b) of the saddle cradle (10) are mutually connected. In addition to forming a stepless uniform upper surface (surface), the step height (36) of the step surface (36) is ensured to be extremely low.

Therefore, the infant can safely place the one foot on the step surface (36) of the above-mentioned seat piece (34b) safely and stably, and can run while kicking the ground with the remaining one foot. It is always easy to use.

When used as such a kick scooter (Skater) (B), as is apparent from FIGS. 11 to 14, the connecting bolt and nut are connected to the upper connecting bolt receiving hole (30a) in the handle post (27). (29) is replaced, and the handlebar (31) is maintained in a tall fixed state that can be held and manipulated by an infant standing on the step surface (36).

First, the saddle (S) is used from a state of use as a riding toy (tricycle) (A) as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 to a state of use as a kick scooter (skater) (B) as shown in FIGS. I explained that the front and back and the top and bottom (front and back) are reversed and attached, but the saddle (from the use state as the kick scooter (skater) (B) to the use state as the riding toy (tricycle) (A) ( Of course, S) can be changed, and the attaching / detaching operation is the same.

In this case, the pair of left and right hand-operated concave grooves (39) recessed in the leg piece (34a) of the saddle (S) in the use state of FIGS. Since it is not shielded by (10a) and is open in the lateral direction, when the leg piece (34a) of the saddle (S) is removed from the saddle cradle (10) of the toy body frame (F) The hand-operated concave groove (39) can be held with one hand and is extremely convenient.
