CONSTITUTION:A movable shape object 2 of doll or the like is mounted on a toy main unit 1 while loading a driving unit (a) on the toy main unit 1. The movable shape object 2 is linked with the driving unit (a). That is, when the toy main unit 1 is moved to run by driving force of the driving unit (a), also the movable shape object 2, linked with the driving unit (a), is made movable, so that an unexpected interesting running play can be enjoyed.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a traveling toy in which a movable figure such as a doll attached to a toy body moves as the traveling toy travels.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, a traveling toy is equipped with a drive unit using a motor, a spring, a flywheel, etc. as a driving source, and the driving force of the drive unit allows the traveling toy to travel 3 degrees to enjoy play.

(Objective of the Invention) An object of the present invention is to propose a novel and interesting traveling toy that can not only travel in the same way as the conventional one, but also move movable figures provided on the toy body.

(Means for Achieving the Object) As a means for achieving the above object, the traveling toy according to the present invention is characterized by being equipped with a drive unit and having the following requirements.

(a) A movable figure such as a doll is attached to the toy body.

(b) The movable figure mentioned above must be linked to a drive unit.

(Operations and Effects of the Invention) As configured above, according to the traveling toy according to the present invention, when the toy body is driven by the driving force of the drive unit, the doll or the like linked to the drive unit can move. Since the figures are also movable, you can enjoy unexpected and interesting running games.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1fa) (In bl, reference numeral A indicates a running toy according to the present invention, and the running toy A is composed of a toy main body 1 and a movable figure 2.

The toy main body 1 further includes a drive unit a disposed within a cover member 3 provided near the recovery section, and both ends of an output shaft 4 of the drive unit a protrude to the outside. and,
A rear wheel 5.5 is fixed to the protruding portion of the output shaft 4.

Reference numeral 6 indicates a gear, and the gear 6 is fixed to the output shaft 4 near the inside of one of the rear wheels 5. Reference numeral 7.7 indicates a front wheel fixed to an axle 9 supported by a bearing 8.8 provided at the front of the toy main body 1.

Next, the movable figure 2 provided on the upper part of the toy body 1 has a body part 11 having a vertically elongated through hole 10 in the center;
It is formed to resemble a doll by a head 12 disposed on the upper part of the body and arm parts 13.13 fixed to both sides of the body part 11. A support rod 14 erected on the upper surface of the cover member 3 is loosely inserted into the through hole 10 of the body portion 11, and the head 12 is fixed to the tip of the support rod 14. Further, a gear 15 is fixed to the center of the bottom surface of the body portion 11.

The gear 6 fixed to the output shaft 4 and the gear 15 provided at the center of the bottom surface of the body 11 are linked by an intermediate gear. That is, the intermediate gear is constituted by gears 18 and 19 fixed to both ends of the support shaft 17, and the support shaft 17 plays in a guide elongated hole 20 formed laterally in the support piece of the cover member 3. supported by the state.

Further, the gear 18 is provided to be able to engage and disengage from the gear 15, and the gear 19 is meshed with the gear 6. Thereby, the body portion 11 of the movable figure 2 provided on the toy body 1 can be rotated while the traveling toy is traveling.

The drive mechanism (not shown) 1 of the drive unit a is conventionally known and uses a mainspring as a drive source and transmits the drive force to the output shaft 4 of the rear wheel 5.5 via a plurality of reduction gears. It is. Note that the drive source is not limited to a mainspring, and may be a motor, friction, etc., for example.

Since the running toy A is constructed as described above, when the toy A is used, the mainspring is wound up by bringing the rear wheel 5.5 into contact with the running surface and pulling back. At this time, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the gears 18 and 15 are in a disengaged state, so the body portion 11 forming part of the movable figure 2 does not rotate. Next, when the running toy is released, the unwinding force of the mainspring is transmitted to the rear wheels 5.5 through the drive mechanism, thereby allowing the running toy A to run straight ahead. In this case, the support shaft 17 of the intermediate gear is guided by the elongated guide hole 20 and moves forward, so that the gear 18 and the gear 15 are in mesh with each other, and the arm 1
3.13 can rotate the fixed body part 11.

As described above, according to the traveling toy A, the body portion 11 of the movable figure 2 imitating a doll provided on the toy body 1 can be rotated while the toy body 1 is traveling by the driving force of the drive unit a. Therefore, you can get a unique and interesting change to your driving experience.

Next, FIGS. 5 and 6 show another embodiment of the traveling toy A. In this embodiment, the head 12 is rotatably attached to the body part 11 by a shaft member 20, and an engaging part 22 having engaging pieces 21 and 21 is fixed to the lower end of the shaft member 20. There is. Further, a shaft member 23 is attached to the body portion 11 so as to pass through it in the lateral direction.
Arm parts 13.13 are fixed to both ends of the body part 11, and a cam member 24 and a gear 25 are fixed to positions located in the body part 11. The cam member 24 is loosely inserted between the engaging pieces 21 and 21 in an engaged state, and the gear 25 is meshed with the gear 6 fixed to the output shaft via an intermediate gear 26.

Also in this embodiment, if the running toy A is released after winding up the mainspring of the drive unit a, the unwinding force of the mainspring is transmitted to the rear wheels 5.5 via the drive mechanism, thereby causing the running toy A to run. At the same time, the arms 13, 13 and head 12 of the movable figure 2 formed to imitate a doll can be moved.

In this embodiment, the same reference numerals as in FIGS. 1 to 4 indicate the same parts, and the explanation thereof will be omitted.
