Description

Educational equipment generating the names of objects and the time by speech.

The present invention relates to an educational toy that outputs the corresponding voice and sound for various objects.

Existing educational toys can be placed in a box consisting of panels with holes punched in various shapes, fit into panels with grooves for different shapes, or without objects. Play and It was designed to learn, even toys with a toy clock were not guided by voice for each time, and even a toy watch with a voice output was made as a separate toy, not integrated with the matching toy. Therefore, there has been a problem in learning voice and sound for each object including the alphabet of language and voice information of the current time according to the position of the clock hand through one toy at the same time.

To solve some of the above problems, the Korean Utility Model Publication (Publication Number: 96-12096, 'Infant Education Toys' and Publication Number: Actual 1999-003979, 'Text Learning Using Blocks and Voices') If you make a model insertion groove of and insert the shape into it, the voice for the shape is generated, but the object does not pass through and is inserted, and it is not combined with the watch that generates the voice. The publication (Registration No .: 20-0145401, '12 Toys for Children's Educational Clock with Crying Animals, ') devised a clock toy that generates a voice, but it is not combined with a toy that fits a certain shape, and even more minute minute. Incomplete chapters with the sound of the animal only for time (eg 1 o'clock, 2 o'clock, etc.) It's a watch of difficulty. In the US patent (Registration No .: 4,968,255, 'Electronic instructional apparatus'), the sound is generated by inserting a block such as a number or an alphabet into the insertion groove, but this is also inserted through the hole and not through the corresponding hole. It is not combined with a generation clock.

The present invention has been made to solve such a conventional problem, the object of the present invention is a box consisting of panels punched in various shapes to allow various shapes of objects to pass through, through the hole If you enter, the object's name is generated by human voice, and the voice output for the time is made as you move the clock hands installed on one side of the box that constitutes this box. The voice is also output, but the voice output varies according to the setting of the language selection switch, and the educational toy is composed of all replaceable panels except a panel with a clock and a door with a sliding door. .

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

1 is an overall perspective view of the educational toy of the present invention. As shown in Figure 1, the educational toy of the present invention is provided with a panel 100, a power ON / OFF switch 110, a language selection switch 180, a panel support shaft 120, the corresponding body is provided with a clock Shape detection switch 130 for detecting this when passing through the hole, the grooved panel in various shapes as an example of the grooved panel 140 in the H shape of the English alphabet, the panel showing the information of the replaceable panel The display label 150 and the hour hand 160 and the minute hand 170 of the watch. By the action of the present invention, when the power supply is applied to the educational toy, the toy is in a standby state, and at this time, if the alphabet H-shaped body 191 is inserted into the hole in the corresponding shape of the panel 140 is an alphabet groove, The shape detecting switch 130 operates to find a corresponding voice from the memory, and a voice of 'A H' is generated through the speaker.

In addition, the user does not output the corresponding time as a voice as soon as the user moves the watch's hands, and outputs the voice for the corresponding time when the state of the clock hand is the same as that of 1 second before the user waits for a predetermined time (1 second). This waiting time is to prepare the children to turn the clock quickly, because it is inefficient for the children to tell the time immediately by turning the clock hands. Each scale of the clock also acts as a switch. When this switch is pressed, the pronunciation of the number is output. If you insert a shape like this, the voice about the shape If you move the hands of the clock, the voice for the time is pressed, and if you press the scale, the voice for the corresponding number is outputted each time you take an action. ) Is outputted. And the unit of speech generation for the time of the present invention is made every 5 minutes for the learning of children who do not know the time. In other words, 'two o'clock minute' does not occur in this toy, and voice is output at five minute intervals such as 'two o'clock minute' and 'two o'clock minute'. And the toy of the present invention also has the feature that the guide display for the replaceable panels are shown on the panel display label 150 that is part of each panel support shaft 120. A detailed description of this part is in the description of FIG. 3.

2 is a block diagram showing a processing relationship for each device including several switches. When the user changes the hour hand or minute hand of the watch, the switch recognizing device 240 detects this through the time detection switch 210, and when the user presses the scale of the watch, the user detects it through the scale detection switch 220, and the panel has been replaced. When it detects through the panel detection switch 230, and when the shape passes through the hole of the shape is detected through the shape detection switch 130, sending an interrupt signal to the control device, the control device receiving the interrupt signal is all Abort the ongoing action and output voice information about the action of the switch. At this time, in order to output the corresponding voice for the switch, the location in the memory for the corresponding voice and sound information through the information conversion device 250, and outputs the corresponding voice and sound through the voice output device 270. . At this time, the control unit processes the interrupt signal and removes each device and memory. In doing so, a predetermined process is performed.

3 is an example of each replaceable panel, in which the fine holes (grooves) for each shape are omitted, and the positions of the concave grooves 320, 340, and 360 are different according to each panel, and on which side of the box. Only panel label 150 was shown to indicate if a replacement is possible. All the panels constituting the box except for the one equipped with a clock and the one used as a sliding door are all subject to replacement.The panel marking on each panel indicates which side of the box can be replaced and which panels can be replaced. Marked on the label 150, the action when any panel is replaced is as follows. That is, when the panel is replaced, the switch recognition device detects through the panel detection switch 230, and outputs a voice message on whether or not the replaced panel is set according to a predetermined place through the information conversion device and the voice output device. do. At this time, if it is installed incorrectly, the sound of the tips for installing correctly is outputted, so the opportunity for correct installation is given once again.

4 is a block diagram showing an input / output relationship between a switch recognition device and an information conversion device. The switch recognition device 240 of the present invention immediately generates an interrupt signal whenever there is a change in the time detection switch 210, the scale detection switch 220, and the panel detection switch 230, and a corresponding voice is generated. Processing is performed so that, as for the shape detection switch 130, since a plurality of shape detection switches are installed according to the respective fine grooves, the signal is transmitted only when all of the multiple shape detection switches installed in each groove have a response. After the gate 420 generates an interrupt signal The processing is performed to generate the corresponding voice. In response to the interrupt request of the switch recognizing apparatus, the information converting apparatus determines the switch information that is currently input through the control of the control apparatus, and starts the memory address 441 and the end address of the memory in the memory in which the determined information is stored. 442, control is passed to the position calculator 440 for calculating the read command 443 and the counter activation command 444. And the device of the present invention is characterized by receiving the information of the shape detecting switch only when the panel is correctly installed in place.

5 is a block diagram of a voice and sound output device. The counter and peripheral device 530 of FIG. 5 initializes the counter 540 and directly accesses the memory in accordance with the counter activation command 444 to move the counter from the start address 441 of the memory to the end address 442 of the memory. The digital data is read in accordance with the read command 443 in increments by one, and the digital signal is converted into an analog signal using a digital-to-analog (D / A) converter, and then audio and sound are output through the speaker.

According to the educational toys as described above has the following effects.

First, while matching the shape, the name of the object, the sound related to it (for example, animal crying) and the visual information of the clock can be heard by voice, so that the child can learn by himself.

Secondly, there are three digit-shaped bodies, so you can hear the voice of the numbers, but they consist of one digit, and the scale of the clock of the present invention includes one digit. In addition, since there are two digits and these are also output as voice, it is effective to broaden the concept of numbers to children.

Third, it is not easy for children to understand that the scale of the clock is 1 or 2 o'clock in one hour and five minutes and ten minutes in minutes, but it is more difficult to understand six minutes and seven minutes. By moving the clock's minute hand to 5 minutes instead of 1 minute and outputting 5 minutes of audio, children can learn the time without difficulty.

Fourth, since the panel can be replaced, it is possible to learn a variety of languages, such as the alphabet of the foreign language, including the English alphabet and animals, insects, etc. in a variety of languages, there is a highly scalable effect.
