Description

The present invention relates to an eye element for a doll, an eye unit for a doll using the eye element, and a doll using the eye unit.

Later, Patent Document 1 describes an artificial eye member having a pupil-bearing eyeball portion and an eye-adjusting convex portion, an artificial eye support member having a through-hole for the eye-adjusting convex portion and a coupling convex portion (or a coupling hole portion). The puppet head with is disclosed.

In the above-mentioned puppet head, the eyeball portion of the artificial eye member is arranged in the artificial eye storage recess (the inner peripheral portion around the opening) inside the face, and the eye-adjusting convex portion of the artificial eye member enters the through opening to support the artificial eye member. The joint convex portion (or joint hole portion) of the prosthesis is fitted into the joint concave portion (or joint convex portion) inside the face, and the eyeball portion of the artificial eye member is urged by the peripheral edge of the through hole based on the elasticity of the artificial eye support member. Is in close contact with the prosthesis storage recess (the inner part around the opening) inside the face.

Although detailed explanation is not given in Patent Document 1 described later, the conjunctiva (white eye) of the eye in the above-mentioned eyeball portion excluding the pupil of the hemispherical eyeball portion is based on the drawing and the well-known eye structure for dolls. This is the part where the pupil represents the pupil (pupil) and iris of the eye. Generally, the above-mentioned pupil is composed of a translucent portion having a hemispherical and flat rear surface and a pattern portion (a pattern representing the pupil (pupil) and iris of the eye) arranged on the rear surface side.

By the way, in many cases, the above-mentioned eye structure for a doll including the eyeball portion is required to have a follow-up (follow-up) phenomenon, specifically, a phenomenon in which the line of sight seems to follow even when viewed at different angles. This tracking phenomenon becomes easier to obtain as the thickness dimension of the translucent portion is increased (closer to a hemisphere), but when the thickness dimension of the translucent portion is increased in order to obtain the tracking phenomenon, the cornea becomes visible. Since the corresponding part has a shape that protrudes excessively forward, it is easy to cause a sense of discomfort based on the difference from the actual eye shape of the object to be imitated.

<< Composition of eye elements for dolls >>
First, the configuration of the doll eye element 10 (hereinafter, simply referred to as the eye element 10) will be described with reference to FIG.

As shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the eye element 10 is a translucent portion formed on a front convex curved surface 11a and a posterior convex curved surface 11b facing the front convex curved surface 11a in the front-rear direction. 11 and a pattern portion 12 having an eye pattern (pupil portion 12a, iris portion 12b, and conjunctival portion 12c) provided on the posterior convex curved surface 11b, and further, an eye element 10 can be connected to other parts. A pair of upper and lower overhanging portions 13 having the portions 13a are provided.

The front view contour of the translucent portion 11 is circular, preferably circular, and the outer shape of the front convex curved surface 11a (diameter when the front view contour is circular) is the outer shape of the rear convex curved surface 11b (front view contour is circular). In the case of diameter). Further, the thickness dimension T11a of the front convex curved surface 11a is larger than the thickness dimension T11b of the rear convex curved surface 11b (see FIGS. 1C and 1D).

In the case of A, the cross-sectional curve of the front convex curved surface 11a and the cross-sectional curve of the rear convex curved surface 11b are created so that a plurality of curved segments having different radii of curvature, preferably 4 or more, are smoothly continuous. In this case, the case where the largest central radius of curvature in the cross-sectional curve of the front convex curved surface 11a is the same as the case where it is smaller than the case where it is smaller than the largest central radius of curvature in the cross-sectional curve of the rear convex curved surface 11b is included. ..

On the other hand, in the case of B, since the thickness dimension T11a of the front convex curved surface 11a is larger than the thickness dimension T11b of the rear convex curved surface 11b, the radius of curvature of the cross-sectional curve of the front convex curved surface 11a is that of the rear convex curved surface 11b. It is smaller than the radius of curvature of the cross-sectional curve.

For reference, exemplifying the dimensions of the translucent portion 11 (the front view contour is circular), the diameter of the translucent portion 11, the diameter of the front convex curved surface 11a, the diameter of the posterior convex curved surface 11b is 22 mm, and the thickness of the front convex curved surface 11a. The vertical dimension T11a is 4.08 mm, the thickness dimension T11b of the posterior convex curved surface 11b is 1.62 mm, and the thickness dimension (T11a + T11b) of the translucent portion 11 is 5.7 mm. That is, the thickness dimension (T11a + T11b) of the translucent portion 11 is considerably smaller than the thickness dimension of the hemispherical one having a cross-sectional curve having a radius of curvature of 11 mm (1/2 of the diameter of the translucent portion 11 of 22 mm).

The translucent portion 11 is preferably either transparent or translucent. In the case of translucency, if the eye pattern of the pattern portion 12 (pupil portion 12a, iris portion 12b and conjunctival portion 12c) can be seen through, it is semi-transparent or semi-transparent colored with pale milky white. In addition to transparent, translucent colored with a pale chromatic color can also be adopted. Incidentally, the material of the translucent portion 11 is preferably a synthetic resin such as ABS resin, acrylic resin, and polycarbonate, but glass can also be used instead of the synthetic resin.

The pattern portion 12 is an eye pattern, preferably from the center to the periphery, a circular pupil portion 12a representing the pupil (pupil) of the eye, an annular iris portion 12b representing the iris of the eye, and the conjunctiva of the eye ( It has an annular conjunctival portion 12c representing (white eyes).

The pattern portion 12 is provided on the rear convex curved surface 11b of the translucent portion 11, and is preferably a print layer printed on the rear convex curved surface 11b of the translucent portion 11 or the rear side of the translucent portion 11. It consists of a print sheet attached to the convex curved surface 11b.

The color of the conjunctival portion 12c is preferably white, but it can also be light gray or light chromatic. The color of the pupil portion 12a and the color of the iris portion 12b are not particularly limited as long as they are colors other than white, and the colors other than white include black, gray, chromatic colors, and multicolors combining these. ..

The outer shape of the pupil portion 12a and the outer shape of the iris portion 12b of the eye pattern of the pattern portion 12 may be other shapes such as an ellipse depending on the character or animal to be imitated. Further, the eye pattern of the pattern portion 12 may be one having no conjunctival portion 12c (one having only the pupil portion 12a and the iris portion 12b). In this case, when the translucent portion 11 is viewed from the front, the rear side of the region corresponding to the conjunctival portion 12c can be seen through, but if there is another part such as a white color on the rear side of the translucent portion 11, the color thereof. Can be used as a substitute for the color of the conjunctival portion 12c.

Each overhanging portion 13 is preferably integrally provided with the translucent portion 11 so as to project vertically from the periphery of the translucent portion 11. Each connecting portion 13a is preferably composed of a columnar protrusion, and extends rearward from the rear surface of each overhanging portion 13 with the same anteroposterior dimension. It is desirable that the front view area where each overhanging portion 13 overlaps with the translucent portion 11 is equal to or less than the area that does not enter the pupil portion 12a and the iris portion 12b in the eye pattern of the pattern portion 12. Incidentally, each connecting portion 13a is used when connecting the eye element 10 to the support element 20 described later.

《Structure of eye unit for dolls》
Next, the configuration of the doll eye unit 30 (hereinafter, simply referred to as the eye unit 30) will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3.

As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, the eye unit 30 has a support element 20 (FIGS. 2A and 2) to which the above-mentioned eye element 10 and the above-mentioned eye element 10 can be connected. (See (B)). The support element 20 includes a support main body 21 having a front surface 21a that can face the rear surface of the pattern portion 12 of the eye element 10, a connected portion 22a that can connect each connecting portion 13a of the eye element 10, and the support element 20. It is provided with a pair of upper and lower overhanging portions 22 having a mounting portion 22b that can be attached to the parts of the above.

There is no particular limitation on the thickness dimension of the support body 21 of the support element 20 (dimension between the front surface 21a and the rear surface 21b), but the substantial thickness dimension of the eye unit 30 (connecting portion 13a and mounting portion 22b) is provided. In order to reduce the size (excluding), it is preferable that the thickness dimension of the support main body 21 is equal to or less than the thickness dimension (front-back direction dimension) of the translucent portion 11. In other words, since it is not necessary to increase the thickness dimension of the support main body 21, it is easy to reduce the substantial thickness dimension of the eye unit 30.

The front view contour of the support body 21 corresponds to the front view contour of the translucent portion 11 of the eye element 10. Here, "equivalent" means that the front view contour of the support body 21 is slightly larger than the front view contour of the translucent portion 11, and the front view contour of the support body 21 is the same as the front view contour of the translucent portion 11. The case where the front view contour of the support main body 21 is slightly smaller than the front view contour of the translucent portion 11 is included.

The support body 21 may be opaque or transparent, but in either case, at least the color of the front surface 21a of the support body 21 is matched with the color of the conjunctiva portion 12c of the pattern portion 12 of the eye element 10, for example, the conjunctiva of the pattern portion 12. When the color of the portion 12c is white, it is desirable that at least the color of the front surface 21a of the support main body 21 is the same white. This is the same even when the eye pattern of the pattern portion 12 of the eye element 10 does not have the conjunctival portion 12c.

Each overhanging portion 22 is preferably provided integrally with the support main body 21 with the same thickness as the support main body 21 so as to project vertically from the periphery of the support main body 21. Each connected portion 22a is preferably composed of a columnar hole portion penetrating each overhanging portion 22 in the front-rear direction, and enables connection by fitting each connecting portion (cylindrical protrusion) 13a of the eye element 10. There is.

Further, each mounting portion 22b is preferably composed of a columnar protrusion, and extends from the front surface of each overhanging portion 22 toward the front in the same front-rear direction dimension. Incidentally, each attachment portion 22b is used when the eye unit 30 is attached to the front temporal region 41 of a doll (reference numeral omitted) described later.

In addition, in FIG. 3B, the rear end of each connecting portion (cylindrical protrusion) 13a of the eye element 10 is the rear end of the connected portion 22a (cylindrical hole portion) of each overhanging portion 22. Although the one protruding from the above is shown, the front-rear dimension of each connecting portion 13a may be set to be equal to or less than the front-rear dimension of each connected portion 22a so as not to protrude.

When assembling the eye knit 30 shown in FIGS. 3 (A) and 3 (B) by the above-mentioned eye element 10 and the above-mentioned support element 20, the pattern portion 12 of the eye element 10 is attached to the front surface of the support body 21 of the support element 20. Each connecting portion 13a of the eye element 10 may be fitted into each connected portion 22a of the support element 20 so as to face 21a.

The connection by fitting is completed when the rear surface of each overhanging portion 13 of the eye element 10 comes into contact with the front surface of each overhanging portion 22 of the support element 20. In this connection completed state, as shown in FIG. 3B, the front surface 21a of the support body 21 of the support element 20 and the rear surface of the pattern portion 12 of the eye element 10 are in contact with each other or in close proximity to each other. It will be either.

Considering the stability after connection, it is preferable that the front surface 21a of the support body 21 of the support element 20 and the rear surface of the pattern portion 12 of the eye element 10 come into contact with each other in the connected state, but the degree of contact is strong. Since the pattern portion 12 may be distorted or the like, it is desirable that the contact be a point contact or a state close to this (close state).

<< Composition of dolls >>
Next, the configuration of the doll (reference numeral omitted) will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 to 6.

As shown in FIGS. 5 (A) and 5 (B), the doll includes at least a head 40 to which the above-mentioned eye unit 30 can be attached, and the head 40 includes an anterior head 41 including a face. It is divided into a posterior temporal region 42 that can be attached to and detached from the anterior temporal region 41.

The dividing line (reference numeral omitted) between the front temporal region 41 and the posterior temporal region 42 constituting the head 40 descends backward with respect to the horizontal line SL when the horizontal line SL passing through the center of the head 40 is used as a reference. (See FIGS. 5 (A) and 5 (B)). Incidentally, the inclination angle is preferably an angle in the range of 30 ° to 60 °, more preferably around 45 °. Further, in the vicinity of the dividing line between the front temporal region 41 and the posterior temporal region 42, uneven fitting portions 41d and 42a are provided so that both can be attached and detached.

As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the anterior head 41 is provided with a mounted portion 41c provided inside the anterior head 41 and to which each mounting portion 22b of the eye unit 30 can be mounted. It is provided with a pair of left and right openings 41a capable of exposing a part of the front convex curved surface 11a of the translucent portion 11 of the eye unit 30.

Each opening 41a of the anterior head 41 represents a portion surrounded by an upper eyelid and a lower eyelid, and each peripheral inner portion 41b can contact the anterior convex curved surface 11a of the translucent portion 11 of the eye unit 30. It is a part.

Each attached portion 41c is preferably composed of a non-penetrating cylindrical hole portion in the front-rear direction provided at an upper and lower position inside each opening 41a of the front temporal region 41, and each attached portion (cylindrical column) of the eye unit 30. 22b can be attached by fitting it.

When attaching the above-mentioned eye unit 30 to the anterior temporal region 41 of the head 40, two eye units 30 are prepared, the posterior temporal region 42 is removed from the head 40, and then the eye element 10 of each eye unit 30 is attached. The front convex curved surface 11a faces the peripheral inner portion 41b of the opening 41a of the front head 41, and each mounting portion 22b of the support element 20 of each eye unit 30 is fitted into the mounted portion 41c of the front head 41. Just do it.

The attachment by fitting is completed when the front convex curved surface 11a of the eye element 10 of each eye unit 30 comes into contact with the peripheral inner portion 41b of the opening 41a of the front head 41. In this mounting completed state, as shown in FIG. 4B, the anterior convex curved surface 11a of the eye element 10 of each eye unit 30 and the peripheral inner portion 41b of each opening 41a of the anterior head 41 came into contact with each other. Either a state or a close state.

Considering the stability after mounting, the front convex curved surface 11a of the eye element 10 of each eye unit 30 and the peripheral inner portion 41b of each opening 41a of the front head 41 are in close contact with each other in the mounted state. It is preferable, but even if there is a slight gap (proximity state), the holding force based on the fitting between the upper and lower mounting portions 22b and the mounted portion 41c can be obtained, so that each eye unit 30 is easy. Will not drop out.

When assembling the head 40 after attaching each eye unit 30 to the anterior head 41, the posterior head 42 may be attached to the front head 41 by using the uneven fitting portions 41d and 42a (FIG. 5 (FIG. 5). B)).

The reason why the dividing line between the front temporal region 41 and the posterior temporal region 42 constituting the head 40 is inclined backward with respect to the horizontal line SL is that the anterior side when the posterior temporal region 42 is removed from the head 40. The peripheral inner portion 41b of the opening 41a of the head 41 is made to be able to be directly viewed from directly behind, so that the attachment by the fitting can be easily performed. Another reason is that the back temporal region 42 is less likely to fall off when an external force is applied to the posterior temporal region 42 as compared with the case where the head 40 is divided into front and rear parts.

The doll may further include the torso 50 shown in FIGS. 5 (A) and 5 (B). The body portion 50 has at least a columnar neck portion 52 projecting upward from the upper end of the body portion main body 51 and a columnar insertion portion 53 projecting upward from the upper end portion of the neck portion 52. On the other hand, in the lower part of the front temporal region 41, a recess portion 41e that rotatably receives the upper portion of the neck portion 52 and an inserted portion 41f that rotatably receives the insertion portion 53 are provided.

That is, in a state where the neck portion 52 is inserted into the recessed portion 41e of the front temporal region 41 and the insertion portion 53 is inserted into the inserted portion 41f of the front temporal region 41, the head portion 40 is viewed from the front to the neck portion 52 in the left-right direction. Can be rotated to (see FIG. 5B).

The doll may further include the hair portion 60 shown in FIGS. 6 (A) and 6 (B), which detachably covers the head 40. The hair portion 60 is divided into a front hair portion 61 on the facial side and a posterior hair portion 62 that can be attached to and detached from the front hair portion 61.

The dividing line (reference numeral omitted) between the anterior hair portion 61 and the posterior hair portion 62 constituting the hair portion 60 is orthogonal to or omitted from the horizontal line SL when the horizontal line SL passing through the center of the head 40 is used as a reference. It is orthogonal. Here, "orthogonal" includes not only the case where the dividing line and the horizontal line SL form 90 °, but also the case where the angle is close to 90 ° due to the relationship with the tolerance. Further, in the vicinity of the dividing line between the anterior hair portion 61 and the posterior hair portion 62, uneven fitting portions 61a and 62a are provided so that both can be attached and detached.

When the head 40 is covered with the above-mentioned hair portion 60, one of the anterior hair portion 61 and the posterior hair portion 62 is covered on the head 40 from the front-back direction of the head 40, and the uneven fitting portions 61a and 62a are used. The other may be attached to one (see FIG. 6B).

The reason why the dividing line between the anterior hair portion 61 and the posterior hair portion 62 constituting the hair portion 60 is orthogonal to the horizontal line SL is that the anterior head 41 and the posterior head 42 constituting the head 40 are orthogonal to each other. It is related to the point where the dividing line is inclined backward with respect to the horizontal line SL.

That is, if the direction of the dividing line between the front hair portion 61 constituting the hair portion 60 and the posterior hair portion 62 is different from the direction of the dividing line between the front head 41 constituting the head 40 and the posterior head 42. By doing so, the posterior hair portion 62 and the posterior temporal region 42 are less likely to fall off together when an external force is applied to the posterior hair portion 62, as compared with the case where the directions of both dividing lines are the same. There is something in it.

Although FIGS. 5 and 6 do not illustrate arms, legs, etc. other than the body 50, the doll may further have arms corresponding to the character, animal, or the like to be imitated. However, it may be provided with legs in addition to the arms. Of course, the doll may be composed of only the head 40 and the hair portion 60, and in this case, the hair portion 60 may be integrally formed with the head 40.

<< Effects of eye elements >>
Next, the main action and effect obtained by the above-mentioned eye element 10 will be described.

Since the translucent portion 11 of the eye element 10 has a front convex curved surface 11a and a rear convex curved surface 11b facing the front convex curved surface 11b, and the rear convex curved surface 11b is provided with a pattern portion 12 having an eye pattern, the translucent portion 11 is provided. Even if the thickness dimension of 11 is small, an excellent tracking phenomenon can be obtained by the synergistic effect of the refractive index of the light of the front convex curved surface 11a and the rear convex curved surface 11b. That is, since the desired follow-up phenomenon can be obtained without increasing the thickness dimension of the translucent portion 11, it becomes easy to approach the actual eye morphology of the mimicking target.

<< Effects of eye units >>
Next, the main action and effect obtained by the above-mentioned eye unit 30 will be described.

The support element 20 has a support main body 21 having a front surface facing the rear surface of the pattern portion 12 of the translucent portion 11 of the eye element 10, a connected portion 22a to which the connecting portion 13a of the eye element 10 can be connected, and a support element. Since the 20 is provided with a mounting portion 22b to which the 20 can be attached to another part (the front temporal region 41 of the doll), the eye element 10 can be easily connected to the support element 20 and the front temporal region of the doll can be easily connected. The eye unit 30 can be easily attached to the portion 41.

Further, since it is not necessary to increase the thickness dimension of the support body 21 of the support element 20, it is easy to reduce the substantial thickness dimension of the eye unit 30, and a large three-dimensional space for mounting and arranging the eye unit 30. It is extremely useful especially when the doll is a scaled-down object such as a character or an animal because it does not need to be secured.

《Effects of action by dolls》
Next, the main action and effect obtained by the above-mentioned doll (reference numeral omitted) will be described.

An attachment portion 41c to which the attachment portion 22 of the eye unit 30 can be attached to the anterior head 41 of the head 40, and an opening 41a capable of exposing a part of the front convex curved surface 11a of the translucent portion 11 of the eye unit 30. In addition, the dividing line between the anterior temporal region 41 and the posterior temporal region 42 is inclined backward with respect to the horizontal line SL, and the peripheral inner portion 41b of the opening 41a of the anterior temporal region 41 is directly behind. Since the eye unit 30 can be directly viewed from the front, the eye unit 30 can be easily attached to the anterior temporal region 41.

<< Modification example of eye element and eye unit >>

It is at the point where the connected portion 22a1 is formed on the support element 20-1.

The eye element 10-2 shown in FIGS. 8 (A) and 8 (B) is different from the above-mentioned eye element 10 by eliminating each overhanging portion 13 and connecting portion 13a (cylindrical protrusion). ), A connecting portion 13a2 formed of a columnar hole portion penetrating in the front-rear direction is formed above and below the translucent portion 11. Further, the eye unit 30-2 shown in FIG. 8C is different from the above-mentioned eye unit 30 in that it is composed of a columnar protrusion that replaces the connected portion 22a (cylindrical hole portion). The connecting portion 22a2 is formed on the support element 20-2 in accordance with the position of each connecting portion 13a2 of the eye element 10-2.

Even with the eye element 10-1 and the eye unit 30-1 shown in FIG. 7, the same effects as those of the above-mentioned eye element 10 and the above-mentioned eye unit 30 can be obtained, and the eye element shown in FIG. 8 can be obtained. Even with the 10-2 and the eye unit 30-2, the same effects as those of the above-mentioned eye element 10 and the above-mentioned eye unit 30 can be obtained.

Although not shown, the mounting portion 22b (cylindrical protrusion) of the support element 20 of the eye unit 30 is replaced with a cylindrical hole portion penetrating in the front-rear direction, and the mounting portion 41c of the front temporal region 41 is used. It may be possible to attach the eye unit 30 to the front temporal region 41 by fitting both of them as a columnar protrusion instead of the above.

Further, although not shown, when the above-mentioned eye element 10 is a pair for the left eye and the right eye, the eye element is integrated with the eye element for the left eye and the eye element for the right eye.
