Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a shape-changing toy that changes into three types of shapes.

Recently, there are toys that change shape, such as cars that change into robot toys. This device includes a plurality of movable members and changes from a first configuration to a second configuration or vice versa by unfolding or folding these movable members. This kind of toy is very popular because it allows the user to play with two different forms of the same toy, and also allows the user to enjoy unfolding and folding the movable parts when changing from one form to the other. ing.

In view of the hill situation, an object of the present invention is to propose a shape-changing toy that can further transform into a third shape.

Hereinafter, in the drawings, reference numeral A indicates a shape-changing toy. This toy changes from the car toy shape (first shape 8) shown in FIG. 1 to the tank-like shape (third shape 8) shown in FIG.
Furthermore, the form of the robot toy shown in Fig. 3 (second form)
It is something that changes to.

First, toy A is composed of a plurality of movable members. To explain this based on the condition of a toy car, the body of toy A is a device consisting of a central member 1, a front member 2, and a rear member 3. : Engagement groove 10a that opens to force (Fig. 4 (
a)) is formed, and a sunroof 18 is rotatably provided on the upper part of the central member 1, and a head 18 (FIG. 6) is formed inside this sunroof 18. The front member 2 is further divided into left and right parts, and each of the divided members 2a, 2a is rotatably provided with a wheel 11.11, and a ponent member 12.12 is rotatably provided. A stopper 14 is rotatably provided at the rear end of the divided member 2a, and its tip is connected to the first stopper 14.
In the state shown in the figure, it is engaged with the engagement groove 10a of the central member l. The connecting member 4 is formed into a bifurcated shape and is divided into front and rear parts. A receiving groove 13 is formed in the front member 4a, and a rear member 4b is slidably fitted into the receiving groove 13. Thereby, the connecting member 4 can be freely expanded and contracted back and forth. Further, the front and rear ends of the L connecting member 4 are pivotally connected to the front member 2 and the central member 1, respectively. Next, in the rear member 3, left and right fender members 3a, 3a provided with wheels 11 and a rear window member 3b are rotatably attached to a mouth-shaped connecting member 5. Next, the rear member 3 has left and right fender members 3a, 3a provided with wheels 11.
and a rear window member 3b, and these fender members 3a, 3a and the rear window member 3b are rotatably attached to a mouth-shaped connecting member 5. The front parts 5a, 5a of the connecting member 5 are connected to the receiving grooves 10.10 of the central member l.
It is slidably fitted into the As a result, the rear member 3
can be separated behind the central member 1.

A rod portion 15.15 is provided at the front end of the fentanite members 3a and 3b.
In the state shown in FIG. 1, this flat portion 15 is housed in the space provided on both sides of the central member 1 and does not appear outside. Moreover, the rotation shaft 16 of the fender member 3a
is slidably fitted to the right or left side of the connecting member 5. Thereby, the fender member 3a can be further spaced to the left of the left or side end of the center member l. A part 17 resembling a missile launch pad is fixed inside the rear window member 3b.

Next, a manner in which the form of the toy A having the above structure changes from the state shown in FIG. 1 to the state shown in FIG. 2 and further to that shown in FIG. 3 will be described.

First, the rear fender members 3a, 3a are rotated downward as shown in FIG. 4(a), and then pulled outward to the left and right as shown by the dotted lines in FIG. As shown above, rotate the rear fender members 3a, 3a again to the horizontal position and move them forward a little. Next, the rear window member 3
b to the rear, and the part 17 provided inside the member 3a is brought out. By deploying each movable member as shown in Figure 2, toy A changes into a tank-shaped toy as shown in Figure 2. In this state, toy A can be played with as a tank. For example, a spring or a locking member (not shown) may be provided inside the part 17, and a toy missile (not shown) may be attached to the part 17 and launched for fun.

Next, when changing the toy A in the state shown in Fig. 2 to the form shown in Fig. 3, as shown in Figs. Rotate and move forward. Then, as shown in FIG. 4(a), the stopper 14 is disengaged from the engagement groove 10a, and the front member 2 is pulled out forward. At this time, the connecting member 4 expands.

Next, as shown in FIG.
2. Raise 12 to engage the connecting member 4. Further, the stopper 14 is rotated from the state shown in FIG. 5 to the state shown in FIG. 6 to maintain the vertical state, and finally the sunroof 18 is rotated to expose the inner head 18. As a result, toy A can be changed into a robot-like toy as shown in FIGS. 3 and 6.

By moving the movable member unfolded as described above in the opposite direction and folding it, the form shown in Fig. 3 can be changed to the form shown in Fig. 2, and further to the form shown in Fig. 1.

As mentioned above, by expanding or folding the multiple movable members that make up toy A, toy A can change from a car to a tank, and then to a robot, so each form can be used to defeat enemies. In addition to being able to play with toys, if you have multiple pieces of the same toy A, you can enjoy the combinations by changing them into various shapes.

Note that the change in form is not necessarily limited to the illustrated example above; for example, a car may change into an animal, and then a house. Depending on whether the toy is a boy's toy or a girl's toy, The form may be determined depending on the purpose and type of play, such as whether it is used for play or house play, and the arrangement of movable members and movable configuration may be set accordingly.

As explained in detail below, the shape-changing toy according to the present invention includes a plurality of movable members that are linked to each other so as to be unfoldable and foldable into the first form and the second form, and the process of changing into the above two forms. Furthermore, a movable member is provided for changing the configuration to the third configuration. Therefore, since the same toy changes into three forms, the work of unfolding and folding becomes more complicated than the conventional two-form change, so it is not possible to grade the toy to generate new demand. , it is economical because you can enjoy a variety of shapes and movements with the same toy.
