Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a toy signal fire which is very easily moldable along with higher visibility, low in costs and very high in safety. SOLUTION: This signal fire 1 employs a foam body on which is applied color or a pattern as display part forming material 2. Hence, a toy signal fire thus obtained is easily moldable into a desired shape with a higher visibility while individual component parts can be molded as one piece to lower costs with a reduction in the number of parts. Even in case of an accident such as accidental explosion, the lighter and softer material used makes the scattering range thereof narrower and moreover, it functions as a buffer body with respect to members wrapped thereby allowing the formation of a very safe toy signal fire.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a toy smoke used for playing fireworks.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, paper that has been colored or patterned in advance has been used as an exterior material of a toy smoke or other constituent material of a portion exposed to the visual sense of a player (hereinafter, referred to as an "exposed portion forming material" in the present application). Printed or shrinkled (by shrinking and sticking hot air to a patterned film) on the surface of wood or paper (cardboard), or molded by plastic blow Have been.

[0003]

In the case of toy smoke, which is a recreational product, such an exposed portion forming material, which constitutes the appearance, is a very important factor in inducing demand for products. A high degree of safety is required because it is easy to mold into a desired shape or pattern and contains explosives.

However, paper materials are not easy to mold, and it is necessary to apply coloring or patterning by printing or the like after molding, or the number of parts is increased, resulting in high costs. In addition, since it is flammable in itself, there was a danger of inducing a fire in an accident.

[0005] On the other hand, a molded article made of plastic blow uses a relatively hard resin, and thus there is a concern that an accident due to the debris may occur, particularly at the time of outburst.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a toy fire using an exposed portion forming material which is easy to mold, has high visibility, is inexpensive and has extremely high safety.

[0007]

What solves the above-mentioned problems is a toy smoke fire characterized by using a colored or patterned foam as an exposed portion forming material.

The color or pattern of the foam is preferably a spotted pattern formed by mixing synthetic resin beads having different colors. The color or pattern of the foam may be a combination of foams having different colors. The foam is preferably a polystyrene or polyolefin foam.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, an outer cylinder, a propellant charged in the outer cylinder, an ignition fuse wire having one end disposed near the propellant and the other end led out are provided. ,
It is a squirting toy fire characterized by comprising an exterior part provided outside the outer cylinder, and the exterior part is formed of a colored or patterned foam.

[0010] Further, what solves the above-mentioned problems is that an outer cylinder having a propellant charge and a discharge medicine charged inside and an ignition squib wire led out to ignite the propellant and having an open end is provided. And an exterior part provided outside of the outer cylinder, wherein the exterior part is formed of a colored or patterned foam, and is a toy fire toy.

[0011] Further, what solves the above-mentioned problems is that an outer cylinder having a propellant charged inside and an ignition squib led out to ignite the propellant and having an open end is provided. It comprises a discharge body that is housed in a cylinder and is launched from the tip opening by the firing of the propellant, and an exterior part provided outside the outer cylinder, and the emission body and the exterior part are colored or patterned. A toy smoke which is characterized by being formed of an expanded foam.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, an outer cylinder, an ornamental powder charged in the outer cylinder, and an ignition lead whose one end is arranged near the ornamental powder and the other end is led out.
