Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a toy that, after being immersed deep in water, floats to the surface while rotating its lower legs when the toy is released from the toy.

Conventional Technology Conventionally, there is a hollow toy fish that, when submerged in water and released from the water, suddenly rises to the surface and jumps high into the air from the water surface. Since the game is played on a regular basis, there is little interest in it, and it is easily disliked by children, making it unsatisfactory as a toy.

In addition, the conventional rotating floating toy is disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 53-35690.
and that described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication No. 50-19592.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In the former method described in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 53-35690, the entire toy body rotates.
It is not possible to discern the shape or pattern of its appearance while it is rising, which makes it less interesting.

The latter described in Japanese Utility Model Application No. 50-19592 certainly has rotor blades shaped like a helicopter, but it is modeled after a helicopter.
The rotor is just like the real machine, and because it is installed at the top, it cannot rise as it is, and when it rises, it loses balance and flips over, which adds to the fun.

The present invention replaces such a toy by configuring the toy buoyancy body into a toy that is pleasing to various children, which does not rise suddenly from the depths of the water, balances, and gradually floats up by rotating the lower legs, and is suitable for bathing. It is intended to be provided as a useful toy that will make infants and others who dislike bathing happy.

Means for Solving the Problem A hollow buoyant body is formed with an appropriate external shape such as an animal shape, and the center of the bottom is set along a line hanging down from the center of buoyancy, and a support shaft is vertically attached to the center of the bottom. An underwater rotation characterized in that the boss part of the leg body is supported in the same direction and has several wing pieces radially provided on the support axis, and the hollow buoyant body rotates around the support axis when it floats. Found in levitation toys.

Function Since the present invention is constructed as described above, when the hollow buoyant body is submerged deep into the water and released, the hollow buoyant body immediately starts to rise due to the buoyancy, and at that time, the lower leg body is moved by the buoyancy of the hollow buoyant body. Since it is freely supported on a vertical support shaft at the center of the bottom that follows a hanging line hanging down from the center of the body, it is balanced and the support shaft is supported by the resistance of the water as it rises as the hollow buoyant body floats. The hollow buoyancy body starts rotating around the center, and as a result, the hollow buoyant body is unable to rise rapidly, but rises slowly to some extent by the rotation of the legs.

Embodiments The present invention will be explained below with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings. 1 is a hollow buoyant body made of plastic whose outer shape is suitably shaped like an animal, and a pattern of an octopus as shown in FIG. is drawn in a cartoonish manner, and the center of the bottom surface 2 is provided along a line hanging down from the center of buoyancy, and a support shaft 5 is vertically supported in the center of this bottom surface 2, and a number of The boss part 4 of the leg body 3, which has two wing pieces arranged radially, is freely supported.

It goes without saying that the outer shape and pattern of the hollow floating body 1 can be arbitrarily selected without being limited to the outer shape and pattern shown in the drawings.

Effects Since the present invention is constructed as described above, when the hollow buoyant body is submerged deep into the water and released, the hollow buoyant body immediately starts to rise due to its buoyancy, and at that time, the legs move toward the center of the buoyancy of the hollow buoyant body. Since it is freely supported on a vertical support shaft at the center of the bottom that follows the hanging line from the bottom, it is well balanced and centered on the support shaft due to the resistance of the water as it rises as the hollow buoyant body floats. Start rotating to
For this reason, the hollow buoyant body cannot rise rapidly, but rises slowly by the rotation of the legs.
In addition, since the rotor blades are in a balanced position, they can be made larger, resulting in a more interesting action.

Therefore, the external appearance of the buoyant body and the operational appearance of the legs are in good harmony, giving children a special sense of outsideness, and making it possible for children to take a bath with pleasure, for example. There is an effect that can be achieved.
