Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention is a small device suitable for use as an accessory such as hanging on a key chain or bag stopper. The present invention relates to a small-sized underwater play equipment in which a game is played in cooperation with related members fixed in the case by floating and lowering the game playable members in the case.

This type of toy has been disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 56-30982 and has been publicly known, but since it uses bellows as a water flow generating means, it is relatively difficult to miniaturize it, so it is not suitable for desktop use. I disliked being limited to large toys that could be placed on top of each other.

If it were possible to create a small and powerful water current generating means capable of floating a game floating member without using bellows, it could be used as an accessory to be hung on a key ring or a clasp for a bag, etc.
Furthermore, users who purchase this can use it to immerse themselves in games when they have a lot of free time.

The present invention was devised in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and will be explained with reference to the embodiment shown in the drawings.
It is as follows.

In the perspective view showing the components shown in FIG. 1 and the perspective view showing the assembled state shown in FIG. It consists of a bottom cover 1b and a related member 1c that is tightly fixed to one inner surface of the case body 1a. The case body 1a is
A through hole 2 into which the shaft portion 8 of the pusher 7 is slidably inserted is bored on one side thereof, and an annular protrusion 3 protruding from the periphery of the through hole 2 to which a leakage prevention cap 9 is fixed. If necessary, a hook hole 4 is formed on the upper surface for attaching a chain or the like. A water injection hole 5 is formed in the bottom lid 1b and covered with a seal plug 10. In this example, the related member 1c is shown as supporting the magnetic plate 6 horizontally, but this can be changed as appropriate depending on the type of game, such as a stick for ring toss and a net for ball toss. will be installed. A member 11 drawn with a dashed line is a decorative cover to which the operating lever 12 is pivotally attached, and by being attached to the lower part of the sealed transparent case 1, it protects the seal plug 10 and also prevents the operating lever 12 from swinging. Then, the pusher 7 is given back and forth reciprocating motion via the water leakage prevention cap 9 mentioned above.

Next, the game movable member 13 will be explained. In this example, a doll resembling an alien is attached to the related member 13.
It is intended to be assembled on a magnet plate 6 (see Fig. 2), and consists of a head 13a, a body 13b and legs 13c, which are three rings.
For example, a small iron piece 14 is attached to 3c, which is attracted by the magnetic force of the magnet plate 6 and remains immobile during the game, but can be detached by shaking the whole body after the game.
The body 13, which is three rings, is buried as appropriate.
b forms a fitting rod 15 for the head 13a.
Since the game movable member 13 together with the related member 1c can be changed as appropriate depending on the game, it is not limited to this embodiment. There is no difference from the above-mentioned method in that it basically utilizes the floating and settling caused by the water flow actively generated within the tank.

By the way, the feature of this invention is that, as a water flow generating means to actively generate a water flow within the case 1, the blow-off hole 17 is bored at a position that has a planar shape approximately equal to the internal cross-sectional shape of the case 1 and is biased to one side. The plate spring member 16 is disposed in the case 1 so as to be pressable by the pusher 7, and the plate spring member 16 can be deformed by pressing to become convex upwards and restored to become substantially flat. It is in.

The leaf spring member 16 may be constructed of only one metal plate such as stainless steel, but a thin urethane foam 16b is sandwiched between two thin metal plates 16a and 16c, and the blowout hole 17 is formed by the three metal plates mentioned above. It is preferable to form it by an annular stop 18 that connects the two parts because it improves the restorability. More preferably, a flexible sliding plate 16d is disposed above the sliding plate 16d, and the four members are connected by an annular stop 18. As can be seen from FIG. 3, the flexible sliding plate 16d always maintains an inclination sufficient to slide the settled gaming floating member 13 toward the blowout hole 17, so that the extended free end side is connected to the related member 1c. It is preferable to insert and support the foot 19 between the foot 19 formed on the inside of the case 1 and the inner surface of the case 1.

One side is a sliding guide surface for the pusher 7, and the other side is a frame member 21 that forms a locking part for the leaf spring member 16 in cooperation with another foot 20 formed on the related member 1c.
The frame member 21 is interposed between the frame member 21 and the pusher 7, and there is a protrusion 22 in the center of the frame member 21 that protrudes downwards to prevent the plate spring member 16 from being deformed by pressing, and a communication hole 23 is provided on both sides of the protrusion 22. , 23 are formed, and of the internal volume of the case divided into two by the plate spring member 16, a necessary amount of volume is secured below the case internal volume. In addition, when an appropriate amount of surfactant is mixed with water, the head 13a and the body 1
3b, leg part 13c, etc.
3. Makes the sedimentation good.

According to this invention, the flat and thin leaf spring member 1
6 is used as a water flow generating means, which is not only extremely effective in downsizing the play equipment, but also by providing the outlet hole 17 at a position biased to one side of the leaf spring member 16, the following effect is achieved. Unique effects can be achieved for the first time. In other words, the game floating member 13, which had been dispersed and settled without permission, is replaced by the leaf spring member 1.
When the leaf spring member 6 is pressed and deformed to convex upward, it is elastically concentrated above or in the vicinity of the blow-off hole 17, and as a result, when the leaf spring member 16 is subsequently deformed to restore its shape, the upward jet flow from the blow-off hole 17 occurs. Therefore, effective and reliable levitation becomes possible. Utilizing floating and settling on the rotational flow within the case caused by this upward jet flow, the game moving members 13, which were initially separated, can be assembled into one piece as shown in Fig. 2, and the game can be played. Needless to say.
