The pair of drive wheels 230 are coupled to the drive shaft 221 of the drive motor 220, respectively, and are in contact with and supported by the ceiling plate 3. The magnet 240 is disposed in the space portion 211 of the frame, and forms a magnetic force between the wheel and the wheel to be described later. The controller is for controlling the driving motor 220 and is electrically connected to the driving motor 220. The controller receives the driving signal output from the central controller to be described later through the signal receiver 250 and controls the driving of the driving motor 220 according to the received driving signal.

The doll control unit 100 is for controlling the operation of the doll 5, the main body 10, the motor (not shown) and the bobbin (not shown), the wire 20, the guide member 30 and , Controller (not shown).

The main body 10 is disposed below the mobile unit 200, and the ceiling plate 3 is disposed between the main body 10 and the mobile unit 200. The main body 10 is moved together with the mobile unit 200 in a state of being attached by the ceiling plate 3 by magnetic force. For this purpose, the wheel 11 is coupled to the main body. Wheel 11 is provided with two pairs, rotatably coupled to the upper end of the body (10). The wheel 11 is made of a material on which a magnetic force is formed, that is, a material attached to a magnet such as iron. The wheel 11 is rotated when the mobile unit moves in a state of being attached to the ceiling plate 3 by the magnetic force of the magnet 240 provided in the mobile unit, and thus the main body 10 and the mobile unit 200 move together. Done. Meanwhile, a plurality of through holes 12 and a plurality of insertion grooves 13 are formed in the main body 10. Each through hole 12 is formed through the inner side and the outer side of the main body 10. Each insertion groove 13 is formed concave in the inner direction of the body (10).

A plurality of motors (not shown) may be provided and disposed inside the main body 10. Each motor is electrically connected to a battery (not shown) disposed inside the body. Bobbin (not shown) is a place where the wire 20 to be described later is wound, is coupled to the drive shaft of each motor is rotatably installed inside the body (10).

The wire 20 controls the operation of the doll 5 by applying or releasing tension to each part of the doll 5, and a plurality of wires 20 are provided. One end of each wire 20 is wound on the bobbin, and the other end passes through the through hole 12 of the main body, and is coupled to each part of the doll, for example, an arm, a head, and a leg. When the motor is rotated in one direction, the wire 20 is wound on the bobbin, and thus the tension is transmitted to each point of the doll 5 to which the wire 20 is coupled, so that the point is lifted upward. On the contrary, when the motor rotates in the opposite direction, the wire 20 is released from the bobbin, and thus the point where the wire is coupled is lowered downward.

The guide member 30 is for guiding the wires coupled to the same portion separately among the plurality of wires 20 coupled to the doll 5, and is provided in plurality. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, the three wires coupled to the left arm, the three wires coupled to the right arm, and the four wires coupled to both legs are spaced apart from each other so that they are not entangled with each other. It is intended to be drooped downward from the position spaced apart a predetermined distance in the horizontal direction from the through hole (12). Each guide member 30 is detachably coupled to the main body 10. In the present embodiment, each guide member 30 is inserted into the insertion groove 13 of the main body and disposed outside the main body 10.

In addition, the insertion member 31 and the protrusion piece 32 are formed in the guide member 30. The insertion hole 31 is formed in plural and spaced apart from each other. One wire 20 passes through each of the insertion holes 31, so that the wire 20 is a horizontally spaced point from the through hole 12, that is, the doll 20 to which the wire 20 is coupled. From the upper side of each part of) will be hanged downward. The protruding piece 32 protrudes upward with respect to the upper surface of the guide member 30, and the protruding piece 32 contacts the wire 20 so that the wires 20 do not contact each other on the guide member 30. Do not That is, as shown by a virtual line in Figure 3, when there is no protruding piece 32, the wire 20a is arranged in a straight line between the through hole 12 and the insertion hole 31 of the body, accordingly different The wire 20 is in contact with each other. Therefore, when the wire 20a moves, wear or tear may occur in the wire 20a or the wires may be entangled with each other. However, in this embodiment, since the wire passes through the insertion piece 31 via the protruding piece 32, the wires on the guide member 30 are prevented from coming into contact with each other. On the other hand, the shape of each guide member 30, that is, the number and position of the insertion hole 31 and the protruding piece 32 is the number of wires supported by each guide member 30 and the wires are coupled It can be variously modified according to the part of the doll (5).

The controller is for controlling the motor and is electrically connected to the motor. The controller receives the driving signal output from the central controller to be described later, and controls the driving of the motor according to the received driving signal.

The central controller (not shown) is for controlling the controller of the mobile unit 200 and the controller of the doll control unit 100. The central controller outputs a driving signal to the controller and the controller in the form of a wire or wireless so that the doll is operated and moved according to the story of the puppet theater. In particular, in the present embodiment, the central controller outputs a drive signal wirelessly, the drive signal is received by the controller and the signal receiver of the controller. Then, the controller and the controller controls the driving of the motor and the driving motor in accordance with the received drive signal, so that the doll 5 operates according to the story of the puppet show.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the doll is not manually controlled by the performer as in the related art, but the doll's operation is automatically controlled according to the driving signal input to the central controller. Therefore, as a conventional art, problems caused by performing a puppet show by the performer, that is, problems such as fatigue caused by the performer, a number of performances and a high performance fee, etc. can be solved.

And, in the case of outputting the drive signal by wire, a problem may occur that the signal cables (cables to which the drive signal is transmitted) are entangled with each other in the process of moving the mobile unit 200. As a result, the signal cable is prevented from being tangled while the doll and the mobile unit are moving, and as a result, the doll's motion is more smoothly controlled.

In addition, in the present embodiment, since the guide member 30 is provided, the wires 20 are prevented from getting tangled with each other. In other words, when there is no guide member, the wire is straight down from the through hole 12 of the main body, and there is a possibility that the wires are entangled with each other in the process of moving the doll because the gap between the wires is narrow. However, in the present exemplary embodiment, since the wires 20 are arranged downward by the guide member 30 at a point spaced apart from each other, the spacing between the wires 20 is widened, and as a result, the wires 20 are mutually different. Getting tangled is prevented.

In addition, since the protruding pieces 32 are formed in the guide member 30, the wires 20 on the guide member 30 are prevented from being tangled or damaged with each other.

In addition, since the guide member is detachable to the main body, it is possible to efficiently control various kinds of dolls by replacing the guide member according to the doll to be controlled. In other words, the number and location of the wires connected to each part will vary depending on the shape of the doll. In this case, when the doll changes from a human shape to a dog shape, the doll is removed after removing the guide member for the human doll inserted into the main body. By inserting the dragon guide member, the dog doll can be efficiently controlled.

Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 4, the invention may be configured such that the roller 33 is further coupled to the guide member 30A. Referring to FIG. 4, a roller 33 is rotatably coupled to each insertion hole 31A of the guide member 30A, and the wire 20 is supported and guided by the roller 33.

In the above embodiment, the wire 20 may be damaged by friction between the wire 20 and the insertion hole 31 generated when the wire 20 moves. However, when the roller 33 is installed as in the present embodiment, the friction generated in the wire 20 is further reduced, thereby preventing the wire 20 from being damaged and moving the wire 20 much more smoothly. Will be.
