Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a device for generating sound in an object by moving its center of gravity.

The purpose of the device of the present invention is to make objects such as breast chewers, cups, plates, and other utensils play music so that their displacement, tilt, or duration of use can be controlled.

Until now, it has been known that objects such as toothbrushes can be made to emit sounds in order to adjust the pressure applied to them, or simply to make them more attractive, but it has not been possible to make musical performances practical. There were no applications for recreational or recreational displacement.

The device of the present invention makes it possible to use a combination of a baby bottle, a cot, or other device to notify the user of a change in its position and to notify the time of use without playing music.

The device of the invention comprises a music box equipped with a tripping pushbutton in combination with a mechanical release means such that tilting of the associated container or its contents causes the pushbutton to be released.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, the device of the invention consists of a box 1 made of a flexible and semi-rigid material, in which a music box (music generator) 2 equipped with a tripping pushbutton 3 is housed. Ru.

The upper part of the box has flexible side walls 4 and 5, and a supporting bulkhead 6.
The partition wall 6 supports the bottom of a feeding bottle 8, for example. The box body 1 has a hinge 9 on which a lever 1o is pivotally mounted, and the stroke of the lever 100 is limited by a spring 11.

This lever 10 immobilizes the push button 3.

When the baby bottle 8 is held in the hand and pulled as shown in Fig. 2, the lever IO is pulled and the push button 3 is released, so that the push button is raised and the musical performance begins.

When the baby bottle is placed vertically again as shown in Figure 1, the sound generation stops.

The music box is fixed by a crown 12.

The box body 1 has a lever 1 adapted to the displacement by some kind of tool.
A contact lever 13 or a hook grip 14 may be provided to transmit the signal to the user and release the push button 3.

FIG. 5 shows an example using an electronic music box (electronic sound generator) 15. In this case, it is sufficient to connect the electronic sound generator 15 to a tilt detector or level 16. The level 16 is formed by a cylinder with a vesicle 17 and a sphere 18 .

When the spirit level I6 is tilted to a predetermined degree, the sphere 1
8 is a contact electrode +9. '20 to start generating sound.

When the container 21 is in the idle or rest position, the sphere 18 is sized within the vesicle 17 and stops making noise. Adjustment of tripping is performed by moving the cylindrical body onto the adjustment scale 22.

As described above, according to the present invention, the movement of the center of gravity due to the inclination of the container or other object supported on the sound generator automatically starts the sound performance. The sound is then stopped when the container or other object is placed in its normal upright position. It is thus possible to equip the feeding bottle with music, for example to control the feeding time or to please the child.

Such sound generation can be extended to any manipulable object to add charm to it or to direct unexpected displacements. Such mechanical or electronic sound can be applied to artwork, plates, statues, and many other objects, and even books can be equipped with sound effects.
