A toys coupling unit inserted into insertion holes formed respectively in the to-be-joined bodies of the toy to couple the to-be-joined bodies, wherein the toy coupling unit includes an insertion unit and a fixed unit. A part of the insertion unit is inserted into the insertion holes and the other is protruded from the outer circumference to restrict insertion into the insertion holes and a space is formed in the insertion hole in the first direction, And is engaged with the insertion unit and moves in the first direction to increase the coupling force of the coupling units and the insertion unit.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a coupling unit for a toy, and more particularly to a coupling unit for a toy that conveniently and safely couples the coupling assemblies.
Increasing demand for toys for toddlers and adults has resulted in an increasing number of different types of toys, and in particular, combining devices that combine toys frames using environmentally friendly materials are being developed to assemble toys creatively and safely handle toys.
However, most of the joining members require the use of a tool or a tool, so that the process of assembling and disassembling temporarily assembles and disassembles the structure of the toy assembly to be assembled and disassembled several times in order to create a creative structure, A coupling device is required.
Korean Patent Registration No. 10-0795608 discloses an invention in which a fastening pin passes through parts of a toy to be coupled to a cap, and Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1342499 discloses a fastening pin and a hollow material, However, the present invention does not disclose a coupling device that can be easily attached and detached.
Accordingly, there is an increasing need for an invention that can adjust the binding force of the toy step by step through a coupling device for toy assembly of a creative structure.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a toy coupling unit capable of easily and safely coupling the materials to be bound to the toy without tools.
According to one embodiment of the present invention for realizing the above-described object of the present invention, a toy unit includes an insertion unit and a fixing unit. A part of the insertion unit is inserted into the insertion holes and the other is protruded from an outer circumference formed on the surface to restrict insertion into the insertion holes and a space is formed in the insertion hole in the first direction, Is inserted into the space, is screwed with the insertion unit, moves in the first direction, and increases the coupling force between the objects to be assembled and the insertion unit.
In one embodiment, the fixed unit is screwed to the insertion unit and is inserted stepwise at one end of the insertion unit according to the angle at which the fixed unit is rotated, so that the other end of the insertion unit is inflated stepwise, The engaging force of the insertion unit can be increased stepwise.
In one embodiment, the insertion unit includes a support and first and second inserts, the support being formed at one end to protrude from the outer circumference to limit insertion into the assemblies, and the first and second Each of the insertion portions may be formed at one end thereof diagonally extending from the support portion toward the center of the other end, symmetrically spaced from each other about the inner space, and formed with hooks protruding toward the outer circumferential surface at an end thereof.
In one embodiment, each of the first and second insertion portions is spaced apart from each of the outer surfaces and the insertion ports in a first direction in a state where the first and second insertion portions are inserted into the insertion holes, The first and second insertion portions may extend toward the outer side and each of the engagement portions may overlap the to-be-assembled members to restrict the insertion and detachment of the insertion unit.
In one embodiment, the insertion unit may further include a female thread formed on an inner space side of the support portion.
In one embodiment, the fixed unit includes a head, an extension, and a thread, the head being formed at one end and extending in a first direction to limit insertion into the insertion unit, Extending toward the first direction with a small outer circumferential surface and inserted into the first and second insert portions through the inner space of the support portion, and the thread can be formed along the outer circumferential surface of the head.
In one embodiment, when the thread is engaged with the female thread and the extension moves, the extension pushes the first and second inserts according to the angle of rotation of the thread, and the coupling force between the insertion unit and the object Can be increased.
In one embodiment, the insertion unit may further comprise a female thread formed along an inner surface of the first and second inserts.
In one embodiment, the fixed unit includes a head, an extension and a thread, the head being formed to extend in a first direction to limit insertion into the insertion unit, the extension having a relatively small outer peripheral surface And the thread may be formed along an outer circumferential surface of the extended portion.
In one embodiment, when the thread moves in conjunction with the female thread, the extension and the thread each push the female thread and the first and second inserts respectively, depending on the angle of rotation of the thread, The bonding force between the objects to be bonded can be increased.
In the case of the toy coupling unit according to the present invention, by adjusting the angle of rotation of the head, it is possible to loosely adjust the extent of the first and second fastening portions, respectively, The first and second elastic portions can be flexibly bent inward, so that the temporary engagement can be easily performed.
Further, the combination of the fixed unit and the insertion unit has a large contact area with each other and strongly restricts the movement of the fixed unit in the first direction or the second direction by the respective threads. Therefore, during the assembly of the toy or after completion of assembly, It is possible to prevent the fixing unit from being detached or the first screw thread and the second screw thread to be damaged when the impact is applied.
In addition, the combination unit for the toys, in which the threads are formed in the extension and the female threads are formed on the first and second inserts, has a temporal coupling and anti-shock structure and the overall volume is reduced by the second support, It is possible to assemble the toys of the structure having a better structure apparently by reducing the volume and the weight of the assembled toys and variously changing the structure of the head of the fixed unit, It is advantageous in that the interference with the assemblies is minimized and the diversity of the structure of the toys is increased.
