[Technical background of the invention and its problems] This type of tree climbing toy has been created in a variety of ways, but a typical one is a magnet installed inside a column that can be moved up and down. This allows the animal to move up and down along the surface of the column. This allows the movement of the animal to be made somewhat more complex by moving the magnet, but since the animal does not make any sounds, it fails to arouse the interest of children and the like.

[Object of the Invention] Therefore, the present invention provides a tree climbing toy that makes it appear as if a real animal such as a koala is climbing up a pillar such as a tree while making a sound, and which greatly arouses the excitement of children. It provides:

[Summary of the Invention] The gist of the present invention is to provide a tree-climbing mechanism that moves an animal up and down along the surface of a pillar installed in a box, and a climbing mechanism that allows the animal to move upward on the pillar. The tree-climbing mechanism is composed of a sounding mechanism that makes a sound when the tree is called, and a drive mechanism that drives the tree0 mechanism and the sounding mechanism. Insert a coil spring whose lower end is attached to a spring rotation gear and can freely rotate in forward and reverse directions, and an operating rod whose lower end has a vertically movable mill which is linked to a swinging body for swinging a changeover switch, and insert it into the coil spring. A moving rod for pushing up the operating rod supported by the moving object is inserted into the box body so as to be able to move up and down as the coil spring rotates in the forward and reverse directions, and a switching switch for swinging that is pressed down when the moving object is lowered is inserted into the box body. The push rod is formed so as to be movable up and down, while the sounding mechanism is
A rotary disk rotary gear whose teeth are removably engaged with an operating pin provided on the rocking body of the tree climbing mechanism and a rotary disk with a guide protrusion are coaxially supported, and a rocking plate for swinging the flute body is attached to the guide protrusion. The invention consists in that the spring rotating gear of the climbing mechanism and the rotary disc rotating gear of the sounding mechanism are appropriately rotated by the drive mechanism.

In addition, as shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, the limb swinging mechanism of the animal body 3 is arranged between a pair of support plates 56 provided in the trunk outer shell 55 and a rotating gear 57 on the side surface. A rubber tire 58 for transferring the surface of the column 5 is attached, an intermediate gear 59 meshed with the rotating gear 57 of the tire 58, and a lever 60 meshed with the intermediate gear 59 at both ends. A limb rocking gear 62 having a center shaft 61 is rotatably supported. On the other hand, a hand 6 and a foot 7 are pivotally supported on the front portions of both sides of the trunk outer shell 55, respectively, and a notched groove 63 is formed on the rear edge of the inner surface of the base of the hand 6. An interlocking plate 64 having a U-shaped cross section is provided to protrude rearward, and a guide pin 65 that is engaged with the notch groove 63 of the interlocking plate 64 is protruded inwardly at the front edge of the inner surface of the base of each leg 7. Set up Then, the levers 6O of the eccentric shafts 61 of the limb swinging gear 62 are fitted into the interlocking plates 64 of both hands 6, and the hands 6 and legs 7 are swung as the one-story swinging gear 620 rotates. It is formed like this.

[Effects of the Invention] Since the present invention is configured as described above, in use, the drive switch 43 of the drive mechanism C is turned on and the motor 5 is turned on.
By rotating the spring rotation gear 16 in the forward direction, the spring rotation gear 16 of the climbing mechanism A rotates in the forward direction via the drive gear 49 and the reduction gear 54, and as the spring rotation gear 16 rotates in the forward direction, the coil spring 10 rotates in the forward direction. Then, the animal object 3 is moved upward via the moving rod 15 in the coil spring 10. When the animal object 3 rises, the rotation gear 33 of the sounding mechanism B is rotated by the spring rotation gear 16 at the lower contact piece 12 of the operating rod 13 to the climbing mechanism.
Since it is pressed against and meshed with the small-diameter gear 32 of It will continue to make sounds. Next, at the same time that the moving rod 15 of the animal object 3 comes into contact with the upper contact piece 11 of the operating rod 13 and pushes it up,
The lower abutting piece 12 of the operating rod 13 swings the swinging piece 26 of the swinging body 20 upward about the shaft pin 23, and then as the push rod 29 is raised, the lower contact piece 26 of the swinging body 20 swings upward. The movable bin 31 swings the changeover switch 19 of the drive mechanism C, and the motor 50 is switched to reverse rotation. At the same time, the actuating bin 27 of the rocking body 20 is also rocked in the direction, and the rotating gear 33 of the sounding mechanism B is disengaged from the small diameter gear 32 of the spring rotating gear 16, and the sound of the animal 3 stops. be done. Therefore, the animal 3 that was at the top is moved downward via the moving rod 15 in the coil spring 10 due to the reverse rotation of the motor 50 of the drive mechanism C and the coil spring 10 to the tree climbing mechanism. When the animal body 3 descends, it does not make any sound. Then, when the animal body 3 descends to the lowest position, the animal body 3 comes into contact with the branch piece 28 and the push rod 29 is pushed down, and then the push rod 29. In each swing bin 31, the swing body 20 and changeover switch 19 are connected to the shaft bin 23.
At the same time, the motor 50 is switched to forward rotation, and at the same time, the rotating gear 33 of the sounding mechanism B is engaged with the small diameter gear 32 of the spring rotating gear 16 in the operating pin 27 of the oscillating body 20. As a result, the animal body 3 is moved in the opposite direction while making a sound. In other words, there is a climbing mechanism that moves the animal 3 up and down along the surface of the column 5 installed upright on the box 4, and a vocalization mechanism that makes a sound when the animal 3 moves upward on the column 5. B, and a drive mechanism C that drives these tree-climbing mechanism A and sounding mechanism B, so that when the animal 3 rises, the animal 3, such as a real koala, chirps while making a sound on a pillar such as a tree. To make it look like the body 5 is climbing,
It can greatly arouse the interest of children.

Moreover, if the animal body 3 is provided with a limb swinging mechanism that shakes the hands 6 and legs 7 when the animal body 3 moves up and down, the animal body 3
As the tire 58 rolls while contacting the pillar body 5 during the upward movement, the interlocking plate 64 is swung by the levers 60 of the eccentric shafts 61 at both ends via the rotary gear 57, the intermediate gear 59, and the limb oscillating gear 62. The hands 6 and legs 7 are moved forward and backward to make it look as if the animal 3, such as a real koala, is climbing up a pillar 5 made of a tree or the like while making a sound, which is very appealing to children. It can be even more appealing.

As explained above, according to the present invention, an animal such as a real koala can appear as if it is climbing up a pillar such as a tree while making a sound, which can greatly arouse the excitement of children. Various effects can be obtained.
