And (c) a drive unit connected via the recording / reproducing apparatus.

    According to the present invention, when the toy user turns on the power switch, the sound is input to the sound collecting microphone that collects the sound, so that the sound is converted into an electrical signal, and the sound is recorded on the recording / playback device by an electronic circuit. , And reproducing from the audio output unit via the recording / reproducing apparatus without any operation.

    The present invention is characterized in that a part of a predetermined time is recorded and reproduced by the recording / reproducing apparatus until the sound is interrupted or a part of a certain period of time is inputted from the sound input microphone.

    According to the present invention, the sound recorded on the recording / reproducing apparatus is reproduced at the same time as a drive shaft driven by a motor connected via the recording / reproducing apparatus, and a gear train formed integrally with a crank portion. It is characterized by comprising a leg-like drive unit that moves up and down alternately one by one.

    Since the present invention has the drive unit, for example, not only an animal like a bipedal monkey but also a quadruped animal such as a dog or a cat can move forward while speaking a recorded voice. .

    As described above, according to the recording / playback driving toy with the built-in recording / playback apparatus and drive unit of the present invention, just turning on the power switch and uttering the sound toward the toy can play back the uttered voice in a loop. Therefore, even an infant can easily play. Moreover, since the part for operation is only a power switch, the appearance of the toy is not impaired. Furthermore, driving in conjunction with voice reproduction enhances the toy's visual and auditory sensations, so that a toy can be provided with more petty characteristics.

    In the present invention, when sound is input from the sound collecting microphone by the toy user, the input sound is recorded by the recording / playback device, and is played back from the sound output unit, and simultaneously connected through the recording / playback device. It is a toy that operates to express a state of walking by actuating a drive unit including a motor.

    Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail. FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention, and shows an external perspective view of a stuffed animal body A imitating an animal incorporating a recording / reproducing apparatus 3 and a drive unit of the present invention. A battery 2 (shown in FIG. 3) is arranged inside the back of the stuffed toy main body A, and electrical supply from the power supply unit to the recording / reproducing apparatus 3 is performed. A sound collecting microphone 5 is arranged at the mouth of the stuffed toy main body A, and by inputting sound from the sound collecting microphone 5, the sound is converted into an electrical signal and transmitted to the recording / reproducing apparatus 3 through the wiring wire 9a. The Then, when the sound is transmitted to the recording / reproducing device 3, an electrical signal is transmitted from the recording / reproducing device 3 to the motor 6 and the sound output unit 5 through the wiring wire 9b and the wiring wire 9c, respectively. By transmitting an electrical signal to the motor 6, it can be transmitted through a drive system, which will be described later, and the leg portion 16 can be raised and lowered alternately one by one via the crank portion 8 and can advance while walking on two legs. At the same time, since an electrical signal is transmitted to the sound output unit 5, it is possible to walk while reproducing the input sound. In this embodiment, the movement of the leg of a biped animal is imitated, but the present stuffed toy is similarly applied to the movement of the leg of a quadruped animal.

    FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the internal structure of FIG. 1, which is an embodiment of the present invention. The battery 2 (shown in FIG. 3) is built in the battery unit 15, and the power switch 1 (shown in FIG. 3) on the back cover 14 is turned on to electrically connect the recording / playback device 3 through the wiring wire 9d. Supply is made. Then, by inputting sound into the sound collecting microphone 4, the sound changed to an electrical signal is transmitted to the recording / reproducing apparatus 3 through the wiring wire 9 a. When sound is transmitted as an electrical signal to the recording / reproducing apparatus 3, electric supply to the motor 6 is further performed through the wiring wire 9b. As a result, when the motor 6 rotates, the timing pulley 10a attached to the front end of the motor also rotates, and the rotation of the timing pulley 10a is transmitted to the timing pulley 10b via the timing belt 11 and is transmitted to the central portion of the timing pulley 10b. By rotating the connected drive shaft 12a and a gear train (shown in FIG. 3) attached to the central portion of the drive shaft, the legs via the crank member 8 connected to the drive shaft 12b are alternately turned one by one. Raise and lower and move forward while walking biped. In addition, as described above, the sound is transmitted to the recording / reproducing apparatus 3 by an electrical signal, so that the electrical signal is transmitted through the wiring wire 9c, and the sound is louder than the sound output unit 5 through the hole formed in the front cover 13. It is played with. In the operation of the leg portion and the sound reproduction, the sound is transmitted as an electrical signal from the sound collecting microphone 4 to the recording / playback device, so that the motor 6 for operating the leg portion and the sound for sound reproduction are used. Since an electrical signal is also supplied to the output unit 5, the leg unit operates simultaneously with the sound reproduction.

    FIG. 3 shows a circuit diagram of the recording / reproducing apparatus 3 of the present invention and the driving unit and the audio output unit 5 interlocked therewith. In such a circuit, when the power switch 1 is turned on, electric supply from the battery is performed to the recording / reproducing apparatus 3. As a result of electrical supply to the recording / reproducing apparatus 3, the sound input from the sound collecting microphone is sent to the recording / reproducing apparatus 3 as an electrical signal. As a result, an audio signal is separately transmitted from the recording / reproducing apparatus 3 to the audio output unit 5 and the motor at the same time, thereby reproducing the audio and driving the legs.

    With such a configuration, the present invention can speak the same words as those spoken by talking to the stuffed toy imitating an animal only by turning on the power switch 1 installed on the back cover 14 of the stuffed toy. By playing back and walking, you can feel as if the stuffed toy is moving forward while imitating the user, further amplifying the user's interest, and the stuffed toy's pet-friendly Will be added.
