Particularly in FIGS. 1 to 5, the direction in which the propellant is engaged is rearward, and the moving direction of the main body is forward, and in the detailed description and claims of the present invention related to other drawings, the direction is specified and described according to this criterion.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, a balloon-powered toy according to the present invention will be described.

First, as shown in Figures 1 to 5, the inflatable power toy according to the present invention

A main body 10 having a wheel portion 17;

Protruding body 20 is formed in the rear of the main body 10 to provide a driving force;

The propellant 20 is coupled to the balloon (B) is characterized in that the air discharge pressure of the balloon (B) is used as the driving force.

The main body 10 may be formed in various forms. In the drawings of the present specification, it is representatively illustrated as having an automobile form, which is for convenience of description, as well as an automobile form, an airplane, a helicopter, an animal, and the like. The main body 10 may be formed in various kinds and shapes, and includes a main body 10 which is self-moving through propulsion by having a wheel 17 formed of wheels 19 at a lower portion thereof.

In addition, in FIG. 3, the wheel part 17 is illustrated as a pair of wheels 19 arranged rearwardly and rearwardly through a rotating shaft 18 at the bottom of the main body 10, which is also a wheel ( As a representative embodiment for implementing the configuration of the self-moving through 19),

The wheel unit 17 may be implemented in various forms such as unicycles, tricycles, and the basic configuration is sufficient to move the body 10.

And because the present invention is intended to provide a toy for infants or children, the main body 10 and the propellant 20 is made of a material such as elastomer-based or synthetic resin harmless to the human body, with a material having some elasticity It is preferably made so as not to be damaged during use, while not harmful to the health of the infant or child.

And the balloon-powered toy according to the present invention is a bar (B) is coupled to the propellant 20 to use the air discharge pressure of the balloon (B) as a driving force,

For this purpose, as shown in Figure 5, the propellant 20 is fitted with a spout (B1; see Fig. 1) of the balloon (B) (21) formed through the hollow 21A,

The discharge portion 25 is connected to the rear portion of the fitting portion 21 has an air communication path (25A) in communication with the hollow 21A, injecting air into the balloon (B) or the air of the balloon (B) is discharged It is made, including.

That is, as shown in Figure 1, the spout B1 of the balloon (B) (see Fig. 1) is inserted into the front fitting portion 21 of the propellant 20 coupled to the rear of the main body 10 to the rear and , The air in the balloon (B) is injected to the rear of the main body 10 through the hollow 21A and the air communication path (25A) is provided with a driving force of the main body (10).

In this case, when the air is injected into the balloon B, the volume thereof becomes large, and thus the main body 10 forms an accommodating part 11 in which the balloon B is accommodated while the vehicle body protrudes upward from the outer end of the bottom. Made to have an opening,

The balloon B, into which air is injected, is exposed to the outside of the main body 10 through the upper opening of the accommodating part 11 and the balloon B is inflated to store air.

And after the balloon (B) swells more than a predetermined size and the user puts the toy down on the floor surface, the air in the balloon (B) is ejected to the rear as the forward driving force is generated, the body 10 is self-moving.

The air injecting method to the balloon (B) may be made through a separate air injecting device, but the present invention is intended to provide a toy that can be easily played with infants at home, the discharge unit 25 It is desirable to inject air directly into the mouth of the user through.

Therefore, the discharge part 25 of the present invention smoothly injects air by fixing the discharge part 25 to the lips or teeth when the user injects air into the mouth, and discharges the air injected during the air discharge toward the rear one side. It is further provided with a discharge auxiliary member 28 which is connected to the cover 26 to be described later so as to be provided with a higher driving force so as to protrude.

Therefore, the user can prevent air leakage by injecting air while the discharge part 25 is bited by the lips or teeth through the discharge assisting member 28.

In addition, as shown in Figures 4 and 5, the air communication path (25A) is formed in communication with the hollow 21A of the fitting portion 21, when the air is injected directly through the cover 26 end pressure There is a fear that the propulsion is lowered by being discharged while the air is not concentrated by the car.

Therefore, the propulsion force may be increased by allowing the hollow of the discharge assisting member 28 to extend the air communication path 25A so that the air discharge is concentrated along the rear one point direction.

Subsequently, the present invention uses a balloon (B) that can be easily purchased at low cost as a power means, thereby facilitating the replacement of the balloon (B), allowing the toy to be used semi-permanently,

In addition, various characters can be used to replace the printed balloon (B) or a balloon (B) of various colors and shapes, to select the balloon (B) according to the taste of the infant to induce the interest of the infant, the balloon (B) ), You can prevent the baby from getting tired easily.

To this end, in the present invention, a cutout portion 13 to which the fitting portion 21 of the propellant 20 is detachably coupled to the main body 10 is formed.

By allowing the propellant 20 to be detachable through the cutout 13, the user can easily replace and use the balloon B.

The cutout 13 is closed by a cover 26 formed behind the fitting portion 21 on the propellant 20, and when the air is discharged through the air communication path 25A, the cover 26. Has a structure in which a driving force can be generated while pressing the main body 10 forward.

And since the fitting portion 21 is made of a tubular shape, there is a risk that the balloon (B) is separated from the fitting portion 21 by the internal pressure expansion when air is injected into the balloon (B).

Accordingly, the present invention prevents the balloon B inserted into the fitting portion 21 from being detached and at the same time, the propellant 20 is detached from the main body 10 after the main body 10 and the propellant 20 are coupled. It includes a departure prevention means that can be prevented.

The separation preventing means is formed to protrude inward from the side wall of the main body 10 to secure the manufacturing ease and reduce the manufacturing cost, the fitting portion when the fitting portion 21 is coupled It consists of fitting projections 14 for fixing the fitting portion 21 while in contact with the outer peripheral surface of (21).

The fitting protrusion 14 is preferably formed integrally with the side wall of the main body to ensure ease of manufacture.

In addition, as the separation prevention means, as shown in the enlarged view in the lower dashed line of Figure 3, the fitting portion 21 further comprises a locking step (21a) protruding along the outer peripheral portion in the front end portion.

Since the diameter of the latching jaw 21a is formed to be wider by a predetermined interval than the width of the fitting protrusion 14, and the main body 10 and the propellant 20 are made of a material having a slight elasticity,

When the fitting portion 21 of the propelling body 20 is coupled, the locking jaw 21a is pressed by a slight pressure, thereby preventing the propelling body 20 from being separated.

In addition, the fitting portion 21 may be formed longer than the length of the passage formed between the fitting projections 14 may be made so that the locking jaw 21a is caught on the front surface of the fitting projections (14).

And since the spout B1 (see FIG. 1) of the balloon B exerts an elastic force in the inward direction, the end of the spout B1 (see FIG. 1) is caught by the catching jaw 21a by the catching jaw 21a. Since a part of B1 (see FIG. 1) is fitted between the fitting portion 21 and the fitting protrusion 14, separation of the balloon B may also be prevented.

In the present invention, when the infant can be put into the mouth when used as an infant toy, the locking jaw 21a is preferably protruded to be curved.

The fitting protrusion 14 is not only made of a pair as shown in Figure 2 and 3,

It may be connected to one through the body roof to surround the entire outer peripheral surface of the fitting portion 21. (not shown)

And as the separation preventing means, as shown in the enlarged upper dashed circle in Fig. 5, the cover 26 is protruded forward in the upper portion and the locking piece 27 having a locking projection (27a) at the distal end It may be made to include more.

The locking piece 27 is formed at the same angle as the rear roof of the vehicle body, is formed to exert an elastic force in the upward direction,

When the propellant 20 is coupled to the cutout 13, the locking protrusion 27a of the locking piece 27 is exposed to the upper opening and caught on the roof.

When the propellant 20 is separated, the locking protrusion 27a may be pushed downward to release the locking operation by the elastic force, and then the propellant 20 may be pushed backward or pulled to complete the separation of the propellant 20.

The locking protrusion is preferably formed to be curved so that the infant does not bite into the mouth, or injuries during handling.

Next, a method of using the balloon B-powered toy according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 1.

As shown in [C] of FIG. 1, the fitting portion 21 to which the balloon B is coupled is coupled to the cutout portion 13 of the main body 10.

At this time, the balloon B is first inserted into the receiving portion 11 through the cutout 13, and then the fitting portion 21 is cut out, that is, the fitting protrusion 14 (see FIG. 2). Insert into the coupling.

When the propellant 20 is coupled, the spout B1 of the balloon B inserted between the fitting portion 21 and the fitting protrusion 14 while the fitting protrusion 14 and the fitting portion 21 are in contact with each other. (See FIG. 1) is tightly coupled to the balloon (B) because it covers the whole fitting portion 21 while pushing toward the rear.

Subsequently, as shown in [D] of FIG. 1, after the coupling of the propellant 20 is completed, the user blows air in a state in which the discharge assisting member 28 of the discharge unit 25 is opened. The balloon B of the) is pushed into the upper opening and inflates.

As shown in [E] of FIG. 1, when the balloon B is inflated to a predetermined size or more, the user lowers the main body 10 to the bottom surface while blocking the air passage 25A, and then air When the communication path 25A is opened, the air inside the balloon B is discharged to the rear, and the main body 10 obtains the driving force to move forward by the pressure.

In this case, as shown in FIG. 4, the air communication path 25A is formed to be inclined upwardly than the hollow 21A to provide driving force while increasing friction between the wheel 19 and the bottom surface by air discharge pressure. By doing so, the main body 10 can be moved more smoothly.

In addition, although not shown in the drawing, when the cover 26 is formed in a circular shape, and the fitting portion 21 is manufactured to be formed in the center of the cover 26,

When the user is coupled to the propellant 20, the injecting air after rotating the inclined air passage (25A) about 80 to 90 degrees in one direction left, right,
