(Operations and effects of the invention) Since the thermometer toy according to the invention is constructed as described above, first, when the spring unit is wound up and the spring starting mechanism is activated, the first and second rotational drive parts are activated. Rotate. The rotational motion of the first rotary drive section is converted into linear motion by the motion converting member, and the piston portion of the motion converting member moves within the whistle means, so air is intermittently blown into the whistle means. There is an intermittent popping sound. On the other hand, the second rotation drive unit rotates the body temperature display board. Therefore, when the mainspring stop mechanism is activated, the intermittent sound stops, and the body temperature of one of the body temperature display boards is displayed on the display window.

In this way, intermittent sounds are generated and the body temperature is displayed, allowing the user to more realistically enjoy playing with dolls, such as nurse dolls, for example.

(Example) Hereinafter, a thermometer toy according to the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, symbol A is a toy thermometer. This toy thermometer A has a thermometer body 1 provided with a spring unit 2, a body temperature display plate 3, and a whistle means 4, as well as a spring winding mechanism of the spring unit 2 and a mechanism for starting and stopping the wound spring. It is.

Spring unit 2 is as shown in Figure 3.
A main gear 11 is attached to a mainspring 10 provided in the case 2a, and a reduction gear 1 is attached to one side of the main gear 11.
2 and 13 are meshed with each other, and a first rotation drive section 5 is provided on the rotation shaft of the reduction gear 13, and a reduction gear 14 is meshed with the other of the gears, and a second rotation drive section 6 is provided on the gear 14. ing. A rotation knob 15 is provided at the end of the rotation shaft of the main gear 11. The first rotary drive section 5 is formed into a disk shape, and a projection member 5a is formed to protrude upward from a part thereof. As shown in FIG. 5, the second rotary drive unit 6 is formed in a cam shape, and has a protruding member 6a at its tip.
is formed upward. Note that when the spring unit 2 is attached to the thermometer body 1, the rotary knob 15 is attached to the thermometer body 1 as shown in FIG.
configured to be operably exposed to the exterior of the device.

The first rotary drive unit 5 is linked to a motion conversion member 7 that converts rotational motion into linear motion. The motion converting member 7 is a guide portion 16 formed on the thermometer body 1.
a sliding portion 7a that slides along the radial axis and has a piston portion 18 at its tip; and a long hole extending perpendicularly from the end of the sliding portion 7a onto the first rotary drive portion 5 to house the protruding member 5a. 17, and the length of the long hole 17 is formed to be larger than the rotation radius of the projection member 5a. Therefore, the first
When the protruding member 5a rotates within the elongated hole 17 due to the rotation of the rotational drive portion 5, it comes into contact with the inner wall of the elongated hole 17 in the width direction and presses the movement converting member 7 in the width direction. 16 in a straight line. Further, the piston portion 18 is fitted within the whistle means 4 that generates sound by blowing air, and makes a piston movement based on the movement of the motion converting member 7.

Next, the sliding movement of the movement converting member 7 is regulated by a convex portion 19 provided on the thermometer body 1 and also by the actuating member 8. This actuating member 8 is provided so as to be in contact with the base of the bent portion 7b of the movement converting member 7, with one end piece 8a of a base piece formed in a Z-shape serving as a stopper piece, and
From the other end piece 8b, the opening 1b of the thermometer body 1 is opened.
The tester part 9 is slidably provided in the tester part 9 and is protruded from the tester part 9, and is always urged by a spring member 20 so that the tester part 9 protrudes outward. For this reason,
The actuating member 8 normally brings the motion converting member 7 into contact with the convex portion 19, and the movement converting member 7 is prevented from sliding. However, when the actuating member 8 is pushed in against the spring force of the spring member 20, the movement restriction of the movement converting member 7 is released and the movement converting member 7 slides, as will be described later. Therefore, the operating member 8 constitutes a mechanism for starting and stopping the mainspring wound in the mainspring unit 2.

The second rotation drive unit 6 is rotatably linked to a circular body temperature display board 3 having a body temperature display unit 21a that displays a plurality of body temperatures in the circumferential direction. The body temperature display plate 3 is rotatably attached to the thermometer body 1, and a plurality of body temperature display parts 21a are formed on one surface in the circumferential direction, and are provided facing the display window 1a formed in the thermometer body 1. There is. On the other hand, the other surface faces the second rotary drive section 6 as shown in FIG. A sector-shaped groove portion 23 having an arc portion that matches the arc portion of the second rotary drive portion 6 is formed. A protruding member 6a of the second rotational drive section 6 is slidably housed in the sliding groove 22. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, when the second rotary drive unit 6 rotates, its protruding member 6a slides on the sliding groove 22, and the body temperature display plate 3 is also rotated by its rotational force. . and,
When the projection member 6a passes the position A in the same figure, it rotates and immediately moves to the position B and enters the next sliding groove 22, and while sliding in the sliding groove 22 in the same manner, the body temperature is displayed. Rotate plate 3. This rotation continues until the mainspring 10 is unwound or until the rotation of the first rotary drive 5 is prevented by the actuating member 8. Then, when the rotation stops, one of the body temperature display sections 21a is positioned in the display window 1a so that it can be read.

Next, the manner of use of the thermometer toy A having the above configuration will be explained.

First, turn the rotation knob 15 of the mainspring 10 to wind up the mainspring of the mainspring unit 2. As a result, the protruding member 5a of the first rotary drive unit 5 urges the motion converting member 7 in the rewinding direction, but one end piece 8 of the actuating member 8 is attached to the bent portion 7b.
Since a is in contact with the movement converting member 7, the movement of the movement converting member 7 is restricted. Then, activate the mainspring starting mechanism. That is, when the tester part 9 is strongly applied to a doll or the like and pushed against the spring force of the spring material 20,
The actuating member 8 is pushed in, one end piece of which is 8a
moves away from the bent portion 7b of the motion converting member 7. Therefore, the movement restriction of the movement converting member 7 is released,
The motion converting member 7 performs reciprocating linear motion as described above,
Air is intermittently blown into the whistle means 4 by the piston movement of the piston portion 18, and an intermittent sound is generated.

On the other hand, the body temperature display board 3 is also rotationally driven by the rotation of the second rotation drive section 6.

Then, when the tester section 9 is separated from the doll or the like, the actuating member 8 returns to its original position due to the spring force of the spring member 20, so that the movement of the motion converting member 7 is also regulated and stopped. At the same time, the winding of the mainspring 10 also stops. Therefore, the intermittent sound stops, the rotation of the display board 3 also stops, and either body temperature display section 21
a is located in a readable manner in the display window 1a. By doing the above, you can experience the feeling of measuring the temperature of a doll, etc.
