Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] This invention relates to a sound-generating carpet, and its purpose is to create a sound-generating carpet that not only has the original functions of a carpet, but also allows children to learn how to read letters and musical notes and melodies while playing. Our goal is to provide the following.

Hereinafter, an embodiment embodying this invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. 1 is a large number of squares partitioning the entire surface of the carpet into rectangular shapes, among which are hiragana 2, alphabet 3, The number 4 and musical note 5 are drawn on it.

As shown in FIG. 2, 6 is a carpet base fabric on which piles 7 are planted. Reference numeral 8 denotes a large number of pressure-sensitive switches bonded to the back side of the base fabric 6 at positions corresponding to each square 1.
When a person is placed on top, it is activated by the weight of the person,
It is designed to generate electrical signals. Note that the pressure sensitive switch 8 is similar to a known surface detection switch. Reference numeral 9 represents a rubber backing material packed on the back surface of the pressure-sensitive switch 8, and 10 represents an electrical cord that passes between the pressure-sensitive switch 8 and the backing material 9 and connects to each pressure-sensitive switch 8.

Reference numeral 11 denotes a signal oscillator provided on one side of the carpet, which inputs the electrical signals of each of the pressure-sensitive switches 6 through the respective electrical cords 8, and is pressed in response to the electrical signal of each pressure-sensitive switch 6. A signal indicating square 1 is oscillated. A receiver 12 is provided separately from the carpet and receives the oscillation signal output from the signal oscillator 11, and outputs the received signal to the next stage speech synthesis device 13. When the voice synthesizer 13 receives a signal from the receiver 12, it converts the signal into a voice signal corresponding to the pressure-sensitive switch 8, that is, hiragana 2, alphabet 3, number 4, musical note 5, etc. displayed in square 1. It is something to do.

Reference numeral 14 denotes an audio output device connected to the audio synthesizer 13, which, when an audio signal is input from the audio synthesizer 13, generates audio from the speaker 15 based on the audio signal.

When a child is placed on square 1 of hiragana 2, alphanumeric 3, or number 4 on the sound generating carpet configured as described above, the pressure-sensitive switch 8 corresponding to square 1 is turned on, and the reading of hiragana 2, etc. is turned on by the speaker. It is generated from 15. Also, if there is a child in square 1 where note 5 is drawn, note 5 is drawn at the correct pitch.
The pronunciation of is uttered, and when the user moves over various notes 5, a melody is uttered.

Note that this invention is not limited to the above embodiments; for example, it is possible to draw katakana or simple kanji in square 1, or even draw a picture of an animal, flower, etc. in square 1, and draw a picture of an animal, flower, etc. When a child is placed on the screen, the names of animals, flowers, etc. and animal sounds are uttered, and pressure-sensitive switch 8 and voice synthesizer 1
Any changes can be made as long as they do not depart from the spirit of the invention, such as electrically wired connection with 3 to send signals.

As detailed above, this idea divides multiple squares on the surface, draws letters, numbers, musical notes, etc. in each square, and also draws multiple squares on the back side of the base fabric to generate electrical signals. A pressure-sensitive switch is provided at a position corresponding to each of the squares, and when the pressure-sensitive switch is in an on state, an electric signal is input and this is used to generate a voice indicating how to read the letters, numbers, musical notes, etc. displayed on the square. By providing a voice synthesis device that converts into signals separately from the carpet, and connecting the voice synthesis device to the voice output device and speakers,
Not only does it have the original function of a carpet, but it also has the excellent effect of allowing children to learn how to read letters and musical notes as well as melodies while playing.

[Brief explanation of the drawing]

FIG. 1 is a plan view embodying the sound generation carpet of this invention, and FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing a switch and a sound generation path. Square 1, hiragana 2, alphabet 3, numbers 4, music score 5, base cloth 6, pressure sensitive switch 8, voice synthesizer 13, voice output device 14, speaker 15.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] A plurality of squares 1 are partitioned on the surface, and letters 2, 3, numbers 4, musical notes 5, etc. are drawn in each square 1, and a plurality of impressions for generating electrical signals are drawn on the back side of the base fabric 6. A pressure switch 8 is provided at a position corresponding to each square 1, and when the pressure sensitive switch 8 is in an on state, an electrical signal is input and this is displayed on square 1, such as letters 2, 3, numbers 4, and musical notes. A speech synthesis device 13 for converting into an audio signal indicating how to read 5 etc. is provided separately from the carpet, and the speech synthesis device 13 is connected to an audio output device 14 and a speaker 15.
A sound generating carpet characterized in that it is connected to.
