Description

  The present invention relates to a top toy.

As a battle game using top toys, the top toys collide with each other, and the impact force stops rotation of the opponent's top toy, flips the opponent's top toy, or disassembles the opponent's top toy. is there.
In such a battle game top toy, a blade-like projecting portion is formed on a portion that collides with the opponent's top toy, that is, a peripheral surface of the trunk portion, and the projecting portion is caused to collide.

  As this type of top toy, there has been known one in which the trunk portion is composed of a plurality of layered trunk pieces (divided pieces) stacked in the vertical direction (vertical direction) (see, for example, Patent Document 1). According to this type of top toy, it is possible to change the characteristics of the top toy by preparing alternative torso pieces having different external shapes, weights, or materials and replacing the torso pieces in units of torso pieces.

Utility Model Registration No. 3079269

By the way, the top toy collides with the opponent's top toy or the like at the outermost uneven portion. Therefore, when viewed from the outer shape of the trunk portion, the characteristics of the top toy greatly depend on the shape of the uneven portion on the outermost periphery of the trunk portion.
Therefore, if the shape of the outermost uneven portion of the trunk is changed to change the characteristics of the top toy, in the case of the above-mentioned top toy, the outer shape of the trunk piece constituting the outermost uneven portion of the trunk is changed. It is necessary to make it.
However, in the case of the above-mentioned top toy, since it has a structure in which layered body pieces are stacked, each body piece has to be thinner and more fragile than an integrally structured body portion. Therefore, in the case of the above-mentioned top toy, it is necessary to stack a plurality of trunk pieces having substantially the same outer shape constituting the outermost concavo-convex portion of the trunk portion in order to have a structure that can sufficiently withstand contact with the opponent's top toy, etc. However, it is troublesome to prepare a plurality of trunk pieces having substantially the same outer shape.
Moreover, the characteristics of the top toy also depend on the weight and material of the torso. This is because if the weight or material changes, the impact force or rotational characteristics applied to the opponent's top toy or received by the top top toy will change.
However, in the case of the above-mentioned top toy, each piece of the body itself is made of a uniform material, and generally has a shape that is balanced in the circumferential direction. The center of gravity only changes in the vertical direction even if it is replaced. Moreover, even if it replaces | exchanges for the trunk piece from which a material differs, a characteristic becomes uniform in the circumferential direction. That is, for example, the cushioning effect is uniform regardless of where the top toy hits in the circumferential direction.
In terms of design, in particular, the upper surface of the trunk is a portion that is easily caught by the eyes of the observer, but in the case of the top toy, the design change cannot be enjoyed unless the uppermost trunk piece is replaced.

  This invention is made | formed in view of this point, and it aims at providing the top toy which can perform a recombination simply and can enjoy the form change in a horizontal direction.

The first means includes a trunk portion and a shaft portion, and in a top toy that plays by causing the trunk portion to collide with a counterpart top toy, the trunk portion is configured and arranged along a plane perpendicular to the rotation axis in a vertically divided state. a plurality of divided pieces, and a connecting means for connecting detachably the split pieces adjacent the split pieces form different from that influence the properties of and the toy have a same said connecting means It is configured to be recombinable with the divided pieces.

  A 2nd means is a 1st means, Comprising: While the said some division | segmentation piece comprises the external appearance of the said trunk | drum, it has comprised the outline of the said trunk | drum by planar view, It is characterized by the above-mentioned.

  3rd means is 2nd means, Comprising: The overhang | projection part which protrudes in the radial direction outer side of the said trunk | drum is formed in the said division | segmentation piece, It is characterized by the above-mentioned.

  The fourth means is any one of the first means to the third means, and the connecting means is formed on one side of the adjacent divided pieces and on the other side. The adjacent divided pieces are configured to be connected by fitting the convex portions and the concave portions.

  5th means is 4th means, Comprising: The said trunk | drum is equipped with two said semi-moon-shaped division | segmentation pieces by planar view, and operate | moves these two said division | segmentation pieces mutually in a diametrical direction mutually opposite direction The convex portion and the concave portion are configured to fit with each other.

On the upper surface of the flywheel 30, one protrusion 31 that protrudes upward is formed on each of the left and right sides. A concave portion 32 that can accommodate the protruding portion 16 of the shaft portion 10 from below is formed in the lower portion of each protruding portion 31. Further, a tongue piece 33 is formed on the upper surface of the flywheel 30 so as to extend upward just outside each protrusion 31. The tongue piece 33 protrudes above the protrusion 31.

3. Torso 40
FIG. 7 is a perspective view illustrating a state in which the body portion 40 is viewed from above, and FIG. 8 is a perspective view illustrating a state in which the body portion 40 is viewed from below. In the description of the body portion 40, up and down, left and right, and front and rear refer to the directions shown in FIG. 7 unless otherwise specified.

The trunk | drum 40 has comprised the disk shape, and is divided into 2 by the vertically divided state in the front-back direction. The trunk pieces 40A and 40B have substantially point-symmetric shapes. The body pieces 40A and 40B which are these divided pieces are integrated with each other by a connecting means 50 which will be described later.
Specifically, the upper surface of the barrel pieces 40A and 40B has one end portion in the diametrical direction of the divided portion C protruding in a rectangular shape toward the counterpart barrel portion, and the other end portion in the diametrical direction of the divided portion C. Is cut out in a rectangular shape. The upper surface overhanging part C1 and the upper surface notch part C2 of the trunk pieces 40A, 40B have substantially the same shape and size in plan view. Further, the upper surfaces of the trunk pieces 40A and 40B are cut out in a half-moon shape in a plan view at the central portion in the diametrical direction in the divided portion C.
When the trunk pieces 40A and 40B are assembled to each other, the whole is formed into a disk shape, and a circular hole 41 is formed at the center of the trunk portion 40.
A blade-like overhanging portion 42 that collides with the opponent's top toy is formed around the body portion 40 thus formed. In order to distinguish the overhanging portion 42 of the trunk piece 40A from the overhanging portion 42 of the trunk piece 40B, the former is denoted by reference numeral 42a, and the latter is denoted by reference numeral 42b.
Further, the body 40 is formed with one isolated slit 43 on each of the left and right sides, into which each tongue piece 33 of the flywheel 30 can be inserted from below. The width of each arcuate slit 43 is wide at one end in the circumferential direction and narrow at the other end.
A cylindrical wall 44 is formed at the center of the lower surface of the body portion 40 so that the edge of the hole 41 extends downward. A claw 45 projecting inward is formed at the lower end of the cylindrical wall 44. A notch 46 is formed between adjacent claws 45. Further, on the lower surface of one end portion in the circumferential direction of the claw 45, a undulating portion 47 is formed in which a plurality of protrusions extending in the radial direction are arranged at predetermined intervals in the circumferential direction.

4). Connecting means 50
FIG. 9 is a perspective view showing a state where the body piece 40A and the body piece 40B of the body portion 40 are separated.
The connecting means 50 includes a concave groove 51 and a convex strip 52 provided in the trunk pieces 40 </ b> A and 40 </ b> B, and an identification member 53 that fits into the hole 41 of the trunk portion 40. The identification member 53 is for identifying one's own and other top toys 41, and the shape and color of each identification member 53 are different.
A concave groove 51 having a T-shaped cross section that opens toward the side surface and extends in the diameter direction is formed below the upper surface overhanging portion C1 of the trunk pieces 40A and 40B. The inner end of the recessed groove 51 is open and is located directly below the inner end of the upper surface overhanging portion C1 of the trunk pieces 40A, 40B. Further, a ridge 52 having a T-shaped cross section is formed in a region where the upper surface notch C2 of the trunk pieces 40A and 40B is formed. The inner ends of the ridges 52 are located directly below the inner ends of the upper surface notches C2 of the trunk pieces 40A and 40B. The protrusion 52 protrudes from the upper surface notch C2 of the trunk pieces 40A and 40B in plan view.

  Further, on the outer peripheral surface of the shaft portion 53a of the identification member 53, a groove portion 54a that is open at the lower end and extends in the vertical direction, and a groove portion 54b that is connected to the upper end portion of the groove portion 54a and extends obliquely downward. The guide groove 54 is formed by a groove portion 54c that is connected to the lower end portion of the groove portion 54b and extends in the horizontal direction. This identification member 53 is attached to the hole 41 of the body 40. A protrusion 55 that engages with the guide groove 54 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the hole 41 of the body 40.

(Assembly method of the body 40)
As shown in FIG. 10, the body portion 40 moves the body piece 40 </ b> A closer to the body piece 40 </ b> B from one direction and slides the divided portions C to each other, and the protrusion 52 of the body piece 40 </ b> A is formed into the groove 51 of the body piece 40 </ b> B. And the concave groove 51 of the trunk piece 40A is fitted to the ridge 52 of the trunk piece B. At this time, the ridge 52 is positioned by an end wall 51 a that defines the outer end of the groove 51.

  Next, the shaft part (insertion part) 53a of the identification member 53 is inserted into the hole 41 of the body part 40 to which the body pieces 40A and 40B are assembled. In this state, the groove portion 54 a of the identification member 53 engages with the protrusion 55 formed on the inner peripheral surface of the hole 41 of the trunk portion 40. Thereby, the identification member 53 is inserted into the hole 41 to a predetermined depth position. Thereafter, when the identification member 53 is rotated in a predetermined direction, the protrusion 55 is engaged with the groove portion 54b, and the identification member 53 is slightly lifted with respect to the hole 41 as the rotation is performed. Then, the identification member 53 is temporarily fixed in the hole 41 when the protrusion 55 reaches the groove portion 54c.

  The body 40 is not limited to the body pieces 40A and 40B, and for example, instead of the body piece 40A shown in FIG. 11, another body piece 40C having the same connecting means 50 can be connected. As shown in FIG. 12, the trunk piece 40C constitutes a trunk portion 40 of another top toy. In the other top toy 40, the trunk portion 40 is constituted by the trunk piece 40C and the trunk piece 40D. The trunk piece 40C and the trunk piece 40D have the same connecting means 50 as in the present embodiment. In FIG. 11, the overhang portions of the trunk pieces 40C, 40D of other top toys are indicated by reference numerals 42c, 42d. A plurality of trunk pieces having different forms such as a color, a pattern, a shape, a structure, or a combination thereof may be prepared in advance as a single item. As an example of the structure, a material having a different material, specifically, a material having a different material such as plastic or rubber, or a material having a different weight of the body piece may be considered.

(Assembly method of top toy 1)
The shaft portion 10 and the flywheel 30 are assembled in a fitted state so that the protruding portion 16 of the shaft portion 10 is matched with the concave portion 32 of the flywheel 30 from below. Next, this assembly is brought closer to the body 40 from below.
And the tongue piece 33 of the flywheel 30 is inserted in the one end part of the arc-shaped slit 43 of the trunk | drum 40 from the downward direction. This state is a state in which the claw 17 of the shaft portion 10 and the cutout portion 46 of the trunk portion 40 match. This state is a combined release state. Thereafter, the shaft portion 10 of the assembly is pressed toward the body portion 40 side. Then, first, the flywheel 30 is pressed against the lower surface of the trunk portion 40. Furthermore, the pressing member 18 is lowered while the spring 19 in the shaft portion 10 is contracted, and the claw 17 of the shaft portion 10 is relatively pushed up above the claw 45 of the trunk portion 40. Then, the claw 45 of the trunk portion 40 comes below the claw 17 of the shaft portion 10. Then, when the shaft portion 10 is rotated integrally with the flywheel 30 in a predetermined direction (a direction opposite to the rotation direction of the top toy 1), the claw 17 and the claw 45 are in a state where they overlap each other. When the hand is released from the shaft portion 10, the lower surface of the claw 17 of the shaft portion 10 and the upper surface of the claw 45 of the trunk portion 40 are brought into contact with each other by the biasing force of the spring 19 in the shaft portion 10. This state, that is, the state in which the lower surface of the claw 17 of the shaft portion 10 and the upper surface of the claw 45 of the body portion 40 are in contact is a coupled state. Thereby, the protruding item | line 20 and the raising / lowering part 47 mesh, and the top toy 1 is assembled.
In this state, the cylindrical body 13 enters from below the hole 41 and contacts the lower end of the identification component 41. Accordingly, the connection between the trunk pieces 40A and 40B is reliably maintained. If the connection between the trunk pieces 40A and 40B is reliably maintained without the identification component 41, the identification component 41 is unnecessary. A screw may be used instead of the identification component 41.

(How to play)
Next, an example of how to play using the top toy 1 will be described.
In this case, the rotational force of the top toy 1 is charged by the launcher 60 shown in FIG. The launcher 60 includes a disk (not shown) inside, and urges the disk in a rotating direction by a spring (not shown) and pulls a string (not shown) wound around the disk with a handle 61. The disk is rotated and the frame holder 62 is rotated. The rotation of the top holder 62 is transmitted to the top toy 1 by the fork 63 projecting downward, and the top toy 1 is rotated. In this case, the fork 63 is inserted into the arc-shaped slit 43 of the trunk portion 40. When the handle 61 of the launcher 60 is pulled out, the rotation of the disk and thus the top holder 62 stops, while the top toy 1 still rotates due to the inertial force, so that the top toy follows the inclined surface 63a of the fork 63. 1 is removed from the frame holder 62.

The top toy 1 thus fired is rotated in a predetermined direction in a predetermined field, and when the top toy 1 collides with the opponent top toy 1, rotation of the shaft portion 10 and the flywheel 30 on the trunk portion 40 is caused by the impact force caused by the collision. A force in a direction opposite to the direction acts, whereby the body 40 rotates relative to the direction of rotation of the shaft 10 and the flywheel 30 in the opposite direction.
Then, the undulations 47 and the ridges 20 on the lower surface of the body part 40 change the meshing position as the shaft part 10 rotates relative to the body part 40. When the locking release position is reached, the notch 46 of the flange 45 of the barrel 40 and the claw 17 of the shaft portion 10 match, so that the locking is released and the biasing force of the spring 19 in the shaft portion 10 releases the barrel portion 40. Is separated from the shaft portion 10.

  In this top toy 1, when it collides with the opponent's top toy, the overhanging portion 42 of the torso 40 gives a strong impact to the opponent's top toy. In that case, in this top toy 1, since the trunk piece which comprises the trunk | drum 40 can be rearranged, a form changes according to the coupling | bonding state, and a design and attack power change.

As mentioned above, although this invention was demonstrated based on embodiment, it cannot be overemphasized that this invention is not limited to this embodiment, and a various deformation | transformation is possible.
For example, in the above-described embodiment, the body portion 40 is divided in half in a vertically divided state by a line extending in a substantially diametric direction. However, for example, the body piece can be divided into a fan shape.
Further, the connecting means 50 is not limited. For example, the body piece may be connected by a dovetail groove and an ant from above and below, or the divided parts of the body piece face each other, and the divided parts are moved in a direction approaching from the direction orthogonal thereto, and the convex part on one side And the recess on the other side may be fitted. Furthermore, the body piece can be coupled by a magnet.
Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the trunk | drum 40 is divided | segmented into two trunk pieces, three or more division | segmentation may be sufficient. Furthermore, not only what equally divides the trunk | drum 40, For example, it can also comprise so that the part which is not equally divided like a 1/3 trunk piece may be removed.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the trunk | drum 40 is divided | segmented, it is not limited to the trunk | drum 40, but a part of shaft part 10 (for example, shaft lower part 10a) is divided | segmented in the vertically divided state, and the part (addition) The portion) may be different in weight and form.
