The device control device 10 includes a case including an upper case member 51, a lower case member 52, and a leg portion 53. The upper case member 51, the lower case member 52, and the leg portion 53 are fixed to each other by the fixing pins 54. The device control device 10 further includes a cartridge connector 34, a display 36, a main board 56, a power supply connector 55, a carriage receiving portion 57, a power feeding terminal 58, a metal plate 61, and a conductive pin 62. These are placed inside the case. The cartridge connector 34 has a structure in which the cartridge 18 is inserted and removed. The upper case member 51 has two rectangular openings 86 with rounded corners.

主基板５６は、ケース内に固定されており、電源コネクタ５５は主基板５６上の配線と接続されている。電源コネクタ５５には電源ケーブル１９が接続され、電源ケーブル１９は図示しないＡＣアダプタに接続されている。ＡＣアダプタは、電源コネクタ５５を介して主基板５６へ電源電位および接地電位を供給する。主基板５６の上には、カートリッジコネクタ３４、ディスプレイ３６、給電端子５８、図示しないプロセッサおよびメモリが配置されている。 The main board 56 is fixed in the case, and the power connector 55 is connected to the wiring on the main board 56. A power cable 19 is connected to the power connector 55, and the power cable 19 is connected to an AC adapter (not shown).

A cartridge connector 34, a display 36, a power supply terminal 58, a processor and a memory (not shown) are arranged on the main board 56.

台車受け部５７は台車２０の下部の形状に対応する凹みを有し、その凹みは内周面と内周面に接続する底面とを有する。底面には貫通孔が設けられ、給電端子５８はその貫通孔を通り、台車受け部５７の底面から突出している。台車受け部５７の上には金属板６１および上ケース部材５１が配置される。上ケース部材５１の開口８６と台車受け部５７の凹みとは平面視で重畳するように配置される。金属板６１は台車受け部５７および上ケース部材５１に挟まれている。 The carriage receiving portion 57 has a recess corresponding to the shape of the lower portion of the carriage 20, and the recess has an inner peripheral surface and a bottom surface connected to the inner peripheral surface. A through hole is provided on the bottom surface, and the power feeding terminal 58 passes through the through hole and projects from the bottom surface of the carriage receiving portion 57. A metal plate 61 and an upper case member 51 are arranged on the carriage receiving portion 57. The opening 86 of the upper case member 51 and the recess of the carriage receiving portion 57 are arranged so as to overlap each other in a plan view. The metal plate 61 is sandwiched between the carriage receiving portion 57 and the upper case member 51.

金属板６１はほぼ矩形の開口６５を有している。開口６５は平面視で上ケース部材５１の開口８６および台車受け部５７の凹みと重畳するように配置される。金属板６１の一端は導電ピン６２に接し、導電ピン６２は主基板５６上の配線と接している。金属板６１はその配線を介して電源コネクタ５５に接続され、接地されている。金属板６１は一種の避雷針として機能する。 The metal plate 61 has a substantially rectangular opening 65. The opening 65 is arranged so as to overlap the opening 86 of the upper case member 51 and the recess of the carriage receiving portion 57 in a plan view. One end of the metal plate 61 is in contact with the conductive pin 62, and the conductive pin 62 is in contact with the wiring on the main board 56. The metal plate 61 is connected to the power connector 55 via its wiring and is grounded. The metal plate 61 functions as a kind of lightning rod.

また凹部３２のそれぞれは、上ケース部材５１に設けられた開口８６と、台車受け部５７の内周面および底面と、給電端子５８とにより構成されている。どちらの凹部３２に設けられる台車受け部５７および給電端子５８も、形状は同じである。また凹部３２を囲むように金属板６１が配置されている。 Each of the recesses 32 is composed of an opening 86 provided in the upper case member 51, an inner peripheral surface and a bottom surface of the carriage receiving portion 57, and a power feeding terminal 58. The bogie receiving portion 57 and the power feeding terminal 58 provided in both recesses 32 have the same shape. Further, a metal plate 61 is arranged so as to surround the recess 32.

デバイス制御装置１０の構成についてさらに説明する。図３はデバイス制御装置１０および台車２０の平面図であり、図４は図３に示すデバイス制御装置１０および台車２０のIV−IV切断線における断面図であり、図５は図３に示すデバイス制御装置１０および台車２０のＶ−Ｖ切断線における断面図である。図３の左側の凹部３２に台車２０がはめ込まれている。そのため、図５には台車２０の断面が記載されている。 The configuration of the device control device 10 will be further described. FIG. 3 is a plan view of the device control device 10 and the carriage 20, FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the device control device 10 and the carriage 20 shown in FIG. 3 at the IV-IV cutting line, and FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the device shown in FIG. It is sectional drawing in the VV cutting line of a control device 10 and a carriage 20. The dolly 20 is fitted in the recess 32 on the left side of FIG. Therefore, FIG. 5 shows a cross section of the dolly 20.

図４および図５には、断面だけではなく、視点から見て断面の向こうにある部材であって視点との間を遮るものがない部材の表面も記載されている。このため、図４には台車２０の上部を側方からみた形状が記載されている。なお、説明の容易のため図４，図５では一部の部材の記載が省略されている。 4 and 5 show not only the cross section but also the surface of a member that is beyond the cross section when viewed from the viewpoint and has no obstruction from the viewpoint. Therefore, FIG. 4 shows the shape of the upper part of the dolly 20 as viewed from the side. For ease of explanation, some members are omitted in FIGS. 4 and 5.

図５に示されるように、台車２０は、回路基板７２と、回路基板７２に接続される受電端子７１と、歯車７３と、バッテリー７４と、第１のカバー材７６と、第２のカバー材７７と、第３のカバー材７８と、を含む。また、台車２０は、図示しないタイヤと、モータと、マイクロコントローラとを含む。第１のカバー材７６と、第２のカバー材７７と、第３のカバー材７８とは台車２０の外装を構成している。台車２０がはめ込まれると、給電端子５８には台車２０に含まれる受電端子７１が差し込まれる。この場合、受電端子７１を介してバッテリー７４へ電流が供給され、その電流によりバッテリー７４が充電される。歯車７３はモータの出力をタイヤへ伝達するための伝達機構を構成する。 As shown in FIG. 5, the carriage 20 includes a circuit board 72, a power receiving terminal 71 connected to the circuit board 72, a gear 73, a battery 74, a first cover material 76, and a second cover material. 77 and a third cover material 78 are included. Further, the carriage 20 includes a tire (not shown), a motor, and a microcontroller. The first cover material 76, the second cover material 77, and the third cover material 78 constitute the exterior of the carriage 20. When the dolly 20 is fitted, the power receiving terminal 71 included in the dolly 20 is inserted into the power supply terminal 58. In this case, a current is supplied to the battery 74 via the power receiving terminal 71, and the battery 74 is charged by the current. The gear 73 constitutes a transmission mechanism for transmitting the output of the motor to the tire.

図４，５において、台車受け部５７、給電端子５８および金属板６１の形状は同じである。図５に示されるように、凹部３２に台車２０がはめ込まれた場合には、金属板６１は台車２０を側方で囲んでいる。 In FIGS. 4 and 5, the shapes of the carriage receiving portion 57, the power feeding terminal 58, and the metal plate 61 are the same. As shown in FIG. 5, when the dolly 20 is fitted in the recess 32, the metal plate 61 surrounds the dolly 20 on the side.

図６は、図５に示される金属板６１の部分拡大図である。凹部３２は側壁８１と底面とを有し、側壁８１は台車受け部５７の内周面と、開口８６の内周面とにより構成されている。また、金属板６１は側壁８１を側方から囲むように設けられている。言いかえると、側壁８１は、はめ込まれる台車２０と金属板６１との間にある。また、側壁８１の外側において、上ケース部材５１と台車受け部５７との間に隙間５９がある。金属板６１はその隙間５９に配置される。隙間５９は側壁８１まで延びていて、側壁８１は隙間５９により開口している。金属板６１は、その隙間５９により、上ケース部材５１および下ケース部材５２から露出している。 FIG. 6 is a partially enlarged view of the metal plate 61 shown in FIG. The recess 32 has a side wall 81 and a bottom surface, and the side wall 81 is composed of an inner peripheral surface of the carriage receiving portion 57 and an inner peripheral surface of the opening 86. Further, the metal plate 61 is provided so as to surround the side wall 81 from the side. In other words, the side wall 81 is between the carriage 20 to be fitted and the metal plate 61. Further, on the outside of the side wall 81, there is a gap 59 between the upper case member 51 and the carriage receiving portion 57. The metal plate 61 is arranged in the gap 59. The gap 59 extends to the side wall 81, and the side wall 81 is opened by the gap 59. The metal plate 61 is exposed from the upper case member 51 and the lower case member 52 by the gap 59 thereof.

金属板６１は、凹部３２の上部（例えば上下方向の中央より上側）に配置されている。具体的には、金属板６１は、前記凹部３２の開口から連接されており、取り外しの際に指をガイドするガイド部８９の終端に隣接している。 The metal plate 61 is arranged above the recess 32 (for example, above the center in the vertical direction). Specifically, the metal plate 61 is connected from the opening of the recess 32, and is adjacent to the end of the guide portion 89 that guides the finger at the time of removal.

上ケース部材５１は、側壁８１の隙間５９側の端に下方に突出する突出部８２を有している。突出部８２は、台車受け部５７の凹部の上端面と対向している。台車受け部５７の上端面上に、金属板６１の開口６５側の端部が位置している。隙間５９は突出部８２により側壁８１の近傍で狭くなっている。言い換えると、側壁８１における上ケース部材５１と下ケース部材５２との距離は、金属板６１を挟む位置（平面視で金属板６１と重畳する領域）における上ケース部材５１と下ケース部材５２との距離より小さい。これにより、金属板６１および隙間５９が視認しづらくなっている。 The upper case member 51 has a protruding portion 82 projecting downward at the end of the side wall 81 on the gap 59 side. The protrusion 82 faces the upper end surface of the recess of the carriage receiving portion 57. The end of the metal plate 61 on the opening 65 side is located on the upper end surface of the carriage receiving portion 57. The gap 59 is narrowed in the vicinity of the side wall 81 by the protrusion 82. In other words, the distance between the upper case member 51 and the lower case member 52 on the side wall 81 is the distance between the upper case member 51 and the lower case member 52 at the position where the metal plate 61 is sandwiched (the region that overlaps with the metal plate 61 in a plan view). Less than the distance. This makes it difficult to see the metal plate 61 and the gap 59.

台車２０の側面は、互いに篏合される第２のカバー材７７と第３のカバー材７８とにより構成されている。また、第２のカバー材７７と第３のカバー材７８との間には微小な隙間７９が存在し、その隙間７９は台車２０の側面にも表れている。そして、台車２０のその側面と、側壁８１とが対向する。ここで、台車２０の隙間７９のうち台車２０の側面に最も近い箇所から回路基板７２までの距離は、その箇所から金属板６１までの距離より大きい。 The side surface of the carriage 20 is composed of a second cover material 77 and a third cover material 78 that are mutually aligned. Further, a minute gap 79 exists between the second cover material 77 and the third cover material 78, and the gap 79 also appears on the side surface of the carriage 20. Then, the side surface of the carriage 20 and the side wall 81 face each other. Here, the distance from the portion of the gap 79 of the carriage 20 closest to the side surface of the carriage 20 to the circuit board 72 is larger than the distance from that location to the metal plate 61.

図７は、図２と異なる方向からみた金属板６１の斜視図である。金属板６１は、静電保護部６６と、端子部６７と、中間部６８とを含む。静電保護部６６は開口６５を囲み横方向に拡がる部分であり、端子部６７は主基板５６上の導電ピン６２と接する部分であり、中間部６８は静電保護部６６および端子部６７を接続する部分である。 FIG. 7 is a perspective view of the metal plate 61 as viewed from a direction different from that of FIG. The metal plate 61 includes an electrostatic protection portion 66, a terminal portion 67, and an intermediate portion 68. The electrostatic protection portion 66 is a portion that surrounds the opening 65 and expands in the lateral direction, the terminal portion 67 is a portion that contacts the conductive pin 62 on the main board 56, and the intermediate portion 68 covers the electrostatic protection portion 66 and the terminal portion 67. This is the part to connect.

静電保護部６６は、開口６５側の端と、静電保護部６６の周縁側との間に段差を有する。この段差は、平面視で開口６５を囲んでいる。これにより、図４から６に示されるように静電保護部６６の断面はＳ字状の部分を有する。この段差により、静電保護部６６が変形しづらくなり、金属板６１をより高精度に配置することが可能となる。 The electrostatic protection portion 66 has a step between the end on the opening 65 side and the peripheral edge side of the electrostatic protection portion 66. This step surrounds the opening 65 in a plan view. As a result, as shown in FIGS. 4 to 6, the cross section of the electrostatic protection portion 66 has an S-shaped portion. Due to this step, the electrostatic protection portion 66 is less likely to be deformed, and the metal plate 61 can be arranged with higher accuracy.

中間部６８は、静電保護部６６の周縁側の端のうち一部から下方へ伸びており中間部６８と静電保護部６６との境界は折り曲げられている。中間部６８の幅は静電保護部６６から離れるにつれ細くなる。中間部６８の先端は端子部６７に接続している。端子部６７は固定ピン５４が通る孔が設けられる第１の領域と、導電ピン６２に接続する第２の領域と、それらを接続する第３の領域と、付加領域とを含む。第１の領域は固定ピン５４を貫通させるための貫通孔が設けられる矩形の領域であり、その一辺には中間部６８が接続され、その一辺の隣の辺には第３の領域が接続され、他の二辺のそれぞれには矩形の付加領域が接続されている。第１の領域と中間部６８との境界、第１の領域と第３の領域との境界、および、第１の領域と付加領域との境界は折り曲げられている。第２の領域は導電ピン６２と干渉するように曲げられており、弾性力により導電ピン６２と接続する。ここで、金属板６１は、他の方法で接地されてもよい。例えば、端子部６７と主基板５６上の接地される配線とが互いに金属製のねじで固定されることにより金属板６１が接地されてもよい。 The intermediate portion 68 extends downward from a part of the peripheral end of the electrostatic protection portion 66, and the boundary between the intermediate portion 68 and the electrostatic protection portion 66 is bent. The width of the intermediate portion 68 becomes narrower as the distance from the electrostatic protection portion 66 increases. The tip of the intermediate portion 68 is connected to the terminal portion 67. The terminal portion 67 includes a first region provided with a hole through which the fixing pin 54 passes, a second region connected to the conductive pin 62, a third region connecting them, and an additional region. The first region is a rectangular region provided with a through hole for passing the fixing pin 54, an intermediate portion 68 is connected to one side thereof, and a third region is connected to a side adjacent to the middle portion 68. , A rectangular additional area is connected to each of the other two sides. The boundary between the first region and the intermediate portion 68, the boundary between the first region and the third region, and the boundary between the first region and the additional region are bent. The second region is bent so as to interfere with the conductive pin 62, and is connected to the conductive pin 62 by an elastic force. Here, the metal plate 61 may be grounded by another method. For example, the metal plate 61 may be grounded by fixing the terminal portion 67 and the grounded wiring on the main board 56 to each other with metal screws.

前述したように、デバイス制御装置１０にはめ込まれた台車２０の隙間７９のうち側面側の端から回路基板７２までの距離は、隙間７９のうちその側面側の端から金属板６１までの距離より大きい。すると、台車２０がデバイス制御装置１０の凹部３２にはめ込まれた場合に、静電気が回路基板７２に向けて放電される前に金属板６１に放電がされる。台車２０に対する静電気の放電により電流が流れうるルートは、台車２０の外装の隙間７９である。しかしながら、その隙間７９を介する静電気の放電が起きる前に金属板６１に放電されるため、充電時には台車２０は静電気の放電による影響から保護される。台車２０が充電されている場合には、給電端子５８から供給される電位により、回路基板７２の電位と静電気の溜まった物体との電位差が大きいため放電が起きる可能性が高い。一方、充電時以外は台車２０の静電気の放電が起きる可能性は低い。なぜなら、台車２０がデバイス制御装置１０から切り離されている場合には、回路基板７２は外部から電位が供給されていないため、静電気の溜まった物体との電位差が小さくなりやすいからである。 As described above, the distance from the side end of the trolley 20 fitted in the device control device 10 to the circuit board 72 is greater than the distance from the side end of the gap 79 to the metal plate 61. big. Then, when the carriage 20 is fitted into the recess 32 of the device control device 10, the metal plate 61 is discharged before the static electricity is discharged toward the circuit board 72. The route through which current can flow due to the discharge of static electricity to the carriage 20 is the gap 79 in the exterior of the carriage 20. However, since the metal plate 61 is discharged before the static electricity is discharged through the gap 79, the carriage 20 is protected from the influence of the static electricity discharge during charging. When the carriage 20 is charged, there is a high possibility that discharge will occur because the potential difference between the potential of the circuit board 72 and the object where static electricity is accumulated is large due to the potential supplied from the power supply terminal 58. On the other hand, it is unlikely that the dolly 20 will be discharged static electricity except when charging. This is because when the carriage 20 is separated from the device control device 10, the circuit board 72 is not supplied with a potential from the outside, so that the potential difference from the object in which static electricity is accumulated tends to be small.

このように、バッテリー７４が搭載され単体での静電気対策の難しい台車２０が存在しても、電源を供給する側のデバイス制御装置１０に静電気の放電を受ける導電部材を設けることで、充電の際の静電気による影響を防ぎ、さらに台車２０の通常の利用において静電気の影響をうける可能性そのものを大幅に抑制することが可能になる。 In this way, even if there is a trolley 20 on which the battery 74 is mounted and it is difficult to take measures against static electricity by itself, the device control device 10 on the power supply side is provided with a conductive member that receives static electricity discharge during charging. It is possible to prevent the influence of static electricity on the trolley 20 and to significantly suppress the possibility of being affected by static electricity in normal use of the trolley 20.

これまでは、本発明を玩具システムに適用した例について記載しているが、玩具以外の電子機器およびそれを充電する装置にも本発明を適用できる。台車２０の代わりに、他の種類のバッテリー駆動機器が用いられてもよい。例えば本発明が台車２０の代わりにスマートフォンなどの携帯機器に適用されてもよい。 So far, examples of applying the present invention to a toy system have been described, but the present invention can also be applied to electronic devices other than toys and devices for charging the electronic devices. Instead of the trolley 20, other types of battery-powered equipment may be used. For example, the present invention may be applied to a portable device such as a smartphone instead of the dolly 20.

また、デバイス制御装置１０のように充電のために電流を供給する充電装置は、必ずしもこれまでに説明した構成でなくてもよい。例えば、金属板６１の代わりに導電性のシートや、環状の金属線が用いられてもよい。 Further, the charging device that supplies a current for charging, such as the device control device 10, does not necessarily have to have the configuration described so far. For example, a conductive sheet or an annular metal wire may be used instead of the metal plate 61.

開口６５を有する金属板６１が、凹部３２の上端の外周縁に配置され、開口６５が平面視で凹部３２を囲んでもよい。金属板６１がケースの上側に存在することで、装飾上の制約はあるものの、より効果的に静電気による影響を防ぐことができる。また、金属板６１の代わりに、凹部３２の上端またはその外周縁に接地されたループ状の金属線が配置されてもよい。 A metal plate 61 having an opening 65 may be arranged on the outer peripheral edge of the upper end of the recess 32, and the opening 65 may surround the recess 32 in a plan view. Since the metal plate 61 is present on the upper side of the case, it is possible to more effectively prevent the influence of static electricity, although there are restrictions on decoration. Further, instead of the metal plate 61, a grounded loop-shaped metal wire may be arranged at the upper end of the recess 32 or the outer peripheral edge thereof.

また、凹部３２の周囲に配置されいわゆる避雷針として機能する導電性の部材は、開口またはループ状の構造を有しなくてもよい。例えば、静電気による影響を抑えるために、接地された複数の電極が所定の値より小さい間隔で側壁８１の上端に沿って並べられてもよい。複数の電極のそれぞれは平面視で側壁８１に沿って延びてもよいし、側壁８１に沿って上下方向に延びる金属線であってもよい。 Further, the conductive member arranged around the recess 32 and functioning as a so-called lightning rod does not have to have an opening or a loop-like structure. For example, in order to suppress the influence of static electricity, a plurality of grounded electrodes may be arranged along the upper end of the side wall 81 at intervals smaller than a predetermined value. Each of the plurality of electrodes may extend along the side wall 81 in a plan view, or may be a metal wire extending in the vertical direction along the side wall 81.

バッテリー駆動機器がはめ込まれる箇所（篏合部）は、必ずしも凹部３２でなくてもよい。例えば、篏合部は、底面と側壁があるが、側壁が充電される機器を囲まなくてもよい。バッテリー駆動機器の側面のうち一面に隙間を設けず、充電装置はその隙間のない側面に対向する側壁であって金属板６１が設置される側壁のみを有してもよい。さらにいえば、バッテリー駆動機器が充電のために配置される箇所は、必ずしもバッテリー駆動機器がはめ込まれる形状でなくてもよい。例えば、バッテリー駆動機器の形状と、凹部３２の形状とが異なってもよい。この場合でも、金属板６１などの静電気の放電をうける電極を適切に配置することで、これまでに説明された実施形態と同様の効果をうることができる。


The portion (consolidated portion) into which the battery-powered device is fitted does not necessarily have to be the recess 32. For example, the mating portion has a bottom surface and a side wall, but the side wall does not have to surround the device to be charged. A gap may not be provided on one side of the side surface of the battery-driven device, and the charging device may have only a side wall facing the side surface without the gap and on which the metal plate 61 is installed. Furthermore, the location where the battery-powered device is arranged for charging does not necessarily have to be the shape in which the battery-powered device is fitted. For example, the shape of the battery-powered device and the shape of the recess 32 may be different. Even in this case, by appropriately arranging electrodes such as the metal plate 61 that receive electrostatic discharge, the same effects as those of the embodiments described so far can be obtained.
