Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a block top, and more specifically, to a top consisting of a top body and a plurality of blocks removably attached to a rotating plate portion of the top body.

Various types of tops have been known in the past, but each of these tops has its own predetermined shape, and the player cannot freely change the shape of the top.

However, if it were possible to change the shape of the top, it would be even more fun to compete in competitions to see how long the top spins in seconds, because by changing the shape, the spinning time also changes.

Originally, Kagura was made to have a variable shape to increase the enjoyment and to incorporate various other ideas, and the drawings will be explained below.

1 is the main body of the top.

The main body of the top can be rotated by itself as a spinning top, and 2 is a spindle thereof, and 3 is a rotating plate portion fixed to the lower part of the spindle in the shape of a brim.

A large number of male fitting portions 4 protrude at equal intervals from the entire upper surface of the rotary plate portion.

In place of the male fitting part, a female fitting part 5 of a recess or a through hole may be provided.

6 is a block, on the lower surface of which is formed a female fitting part 5 into which the male fitting part can be fitted, and from the upper surface there is a male fitting part 5 having the same dimensions as the male fitting part. The joining part 4 is made to protrude.

The block has the same structure as the block toys that are often used these days and can be freely connected and separated.
As shown in FIG. A, a block having one male and one female fitting part may be used as a basic block, and a plurality of blocks may be provided.

Blocks B to E in the same figure show examples in which four male and female fitting portions are provided respectively.

The male fitting part 4 has the same shape and the same dimensions, but the female fitting part is a single unit formed by hanging an elastic inner cylinder 8 having a split groove 7 from the lower surface of the top wall 9, as shown in FIG. In this case, as shown in C to E in the same figure, the block peripheral wall 1 is used instead of the elastic inner cylinder.
0, a slip prevention protrusion 11 provided on the inner surface of the peripheral wall thereof, and an elastic partition plate 12 vertically provided from the back surface of the top wall of the block.

In either case, when the male fitting part 4 is fitted into the female fitting part 5, the blocks having the fitting parts are connected to each other with appropriate elasticity, and the connection by the elastic fitting is forced. It is preferable to provide the device so that it can be separated by pulling it apart.

A large number of the above blocks are dug out, and the male and female fitting parts are fitted to the rotating plate part 3 of the main body of the top, so that the blocks 6...
Attach it, form a block top as shown by the two-dot chain line in Figure 1, and spin it.

If the block is installed in such a way that it does not lose its balance, the block top will spin well, but if it does not lose its balance, it will not be able to spin.

If each mating block is provided with male and female mating parts as in the above embodiment, other blocks can be stacked on top of the block mounted on the rotary plate part, making it possible to enhance the playability of the block top. , it is not necessarily necessary to stack the blocks, but if you just install the blocks on the rotating plate,
If a male fitting part is provided on the rotary plate part, a female fitting part may be attached to the block, and if a female fitting part is provided in the rotating plate part, only a male fitting part is attached to the block. It is sufficient to provide the following.

This proposal has the above-mentioned structure, and since it consists of a top body and a number of blocks removably connected to the rotating plate part of the top body, it takes much more time to rotate than a conventional top. You can think of different ways to play, and you can color-code the blocks into multiple areas (this allows you to create a block top with a rich variety of colors), and you can also consider the colors of the flocks placed on the same circumference around the spindle. It is possible to change the color when spinning, making it an excellent top for play.
