The frequency identification (radio identification) tag constitutes an identification information holding unit, and is provided with a certain image of such an RFID tag (for example, a disc-shaped medal or the like).

(Configuration of the first toy body 20M and the second toy body 50)

Next, the configuration of the first toy body 20M and the second toy body 50 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4 .

As shown in FIG. 3, the first toy body 20M includes a body portion 21 and two left and right leg portions 22 provided at a lower portion of the body portion 21. Further, in the first toy body 20M, the unique identification information 41M is also set, and the identification information holding member 40M that is unique to the unique identification information 41M is set. The identification information 41M of the identification information holding member 40M is one of the 64 types of identification information 41 described above.

An input insertion hole portion 23 into which the identification information holding member 40 can be inserted is provided in a portion of the body portion 21 corresponding to the mouth portion of the dinosaur. Further, the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L are provided at positions different from the input insertion hole portion 23 (here, the crotch portion 25R on the right side of the body portion 21 and the crotch portion 25L on the left side). Each of the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L has a hole portion into which the attached identification information holding member 40 is inserted when the second toy body 50 on which the upper portion of the identification information holding member 40 is attached is attached. Further, a portion (for example, the chest) on the front side of the body portion 21 is provided with an operation portion 27 pressed by the user, and a power switch 28 is provided at a portion on the back side of the body portion 21.

As shown in Fig. 4 (a), an input positioning recess 31 to which the positioning flange 42 (see Fig. 2 (b)) can be fitted is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the input insertion hole portion 23. Further, an identification information input unit 32 is provided on the deep side of the input insertion hole portion 23.

The identification information input unit 32 is a part that inputs the identification information 41 (see FIG. 2) of the identification information holding member 40, and includes a plurality of pieces corresponding to the number and arrangement of the recognized parts 46 (refer to FIG. 2) (in this example, 6) Input switch 33. When the identification information holding member 40 (see FIG. 2) is inserted into the input insertion hole portion 23, the input switch 33 detects the presence or absence of the protrusion 45 at the corresponding position (see FIG. 2), and detects the identification information 41 (refer to the figure). 2). Each of the input switches 33 includes, for example, a movable switch that is urged in a direction in which it protrudes toward the opening side of the input insertion hole portion 23, and is retracted when the protrusion 45 (see FIG. 2) is present, and a protrusion is detected. 45 (see Fig. 2), on the other hand, when the projections 45 are not protruded (see Fig. 2), the projections are maintained, whereby the projections 45 are not detected (see Fig. 2). The user can align the positioning flange 42 (see FIG. 2) with the input insertion hole portion 23 by causing either one of the axial end portions of the identification information holding member 40 (see FIG. 2) to face the input insertion hole portion 23. The positioning concave portion 31 is inserted into the deep side of the input insertion hole portion 23 while the identification information holding member 40 (see FIG. 2) is inserted, and the identification information 41 (see FIG. 2) is input to the identification information input portion 32.

Furthermore, the identification information input unit is not limited to this embodiment. The identification information input unit corresponding to the method of holding the identification information in the identification information holding means and the identification information holding unit may be used. For example, the identification information holding member is a card, and if the identification information holding unit is a barcode printed on the card, the identification information input unit may include a barcode reader. Further, even if the identification information holding means is a card, if the identification information holding unit includes a character string, a numeric string, or a combination of the characters printed on the card, it is only necessary to input characters and/or numbers. . Further, when the identification information holding unit includes the RFID tag, the identification information input unit may include an RFID tag reader for reading the held identification information.

In addition, as shown in FIGS. 4(b) and 4(c), the inner peripheral surface of each of the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L is provided for connection for fitting the positioning flange 42 (see FIG. 2). The recess 35 is positioned. Further, a first connection detecting unit 36R and a second connection detecting unit 36L are provided inside each of the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L.

The first connection detecting unit 36R and the second connection detecting unit 36L may include various switches, and when the second toy body 50 is connected to the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L, it is detected that the second toy body is connected. 50 (refer to Figure 3). For example, the first connection detecting unit 36R and the second connection detecting unit 36L may include a movable switch that moves in response to the insertion when the second toy body 50 (see FIG. 3) is inserted. Furthermore, in the present embodiment, since the identification information holding member 40 can be attached to the second toy body 50, the first connection detecting unit 36R and the second connection detecting unit 36L also include a movable switch, and the movable opening relationship is related to When the second toy body 50 is connected to the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L, the second toy body 50 is moved by the identification information holding member 40 of the second toy body 50. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. The first connection detecting unit 36R and the second connection detecting unit 36L may detect the connection of the second toy body 50 with respect to the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L by some means, for example, The first connection detecting unit 36R and the second connection detecting unit 36L are light amount sensors, and the connection is detected based on the decrease in the amount of light input to the light amount sensor due to the connection of the second toy body 50. In addition, the infrared light emitting unit and the light receiving unit may be used to detect the connection of the second toy body 50 by the infrared rays emitted from the light emitting unit being reflected by the connected second toy body 50 and received by the light receiving unit. Further, the first connection portion 26R and the second connection portion 26L themselves can be configured as a movable switch to constitute the first connection detecting portion 36R and the second connection detecting portion 36L, and can be moved by connecting the second toy body 50. Pass, thereby detecting the connection. In other words, the method of detecting the connection of the second toy body 50 in the first connection detecting unit 36R and the second connection detecting unit 36L is arbitrary, and does not depend on the fact that the identification information holding member 40 can be attached to the second toy body 50, or The identification information holding unit 43 is not provided in the second toy body 50 itself. Of course, even if the identification information holding member 40 is not attached to the second toy body 50, that is, the identification information holding member 40 does not constitute the second toy body 50. In some cases, the detection method of the connection corresponding thereto may be arbitrarily selected.

Return to Figure 3. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the second toy body 50 is provided with three kinds of toy bodies, that is, the second toy body 50A, the second toy body 50B, and the second toy body 50C. Each of the second toy bodies 50 in the present embodiment includes a body portion 51 that simulates a dinosaur, and is provided. An insertion hole portion 52 of the mouth portion of the dinosaur of the main body portion 51, and an identification information holding member 40 detachably inserted into the insertion hole portion 52. In the present embodiment, each of the second toy bodies 50 is connected to the first connecting portion 26R or the second connecting portion 26L while being held by the insertion hole portion 52, and is connected to the first toy body 20M. . Further, in the present embodiment, the identification information holding member 40 can be attached to the second toy body 50, but this is not essential. The second toy body 50 and the identification information holding member 40 may be different. When the second toy body 50 is connected to the first toy body 20M, the identification information holding member 40 may not constitute a part of the second toy body 50. .

Further, in the present embodiment, the appearances (for example, colors, shapes, patterns, and the like) of the main body portions 51 of the second toy bodies 50A, 50B, and 50C are different from each other. Further, the identification information holding members 40A, 40B, and 40C corresponding to each of the second toy bodies 50A, 50B, and 50C have substantially the same outer shape, but can be distinguished according to the color, the pattern, the characters, and the like. Thereby, even if the identification information holding member 40 has been detached from the second toy body 50, the user can easily recognize which second toy body 50 the identification information holding member 40 corresponds to.

(The internal structure of the first toy body 20M)

Next, the internal configuration of the first toy body 20M will be described based on FIGS. 5 and 6 .

As shown in FIG. 5, the first toy body 20M has an operation control unit 61 therein. The operation control unit 61 is connected to the battery 62 via the power switch 28. When the power switch 28 is turned on, the current flows to the operation control unit 61 to start control.

Further, the operation control unit 61 is connected to the identification information input unit 32, the first connection detection unit 36R, and the second connection detection unit 36L. Further, the operation unit 63, the identification information storage unit 65, and the operation information storage unit 66 are connected to the operation control unit 61. The identification information storage unit 65, the operation information storage unit 66, and the operation control unit 61 are mounted on a substrate built in the first toy body 20M.

The action portion 63 includes a sounding unit (for example, a speaker) that generates sound. Here, although the operation unit 63 including the sounding unit is exemplified, the “operation unit” in the present invention may be an LED (Light Emitting Diode) or the like in addition to the sounding unit. The unit, or the sound unit is combined with the light unit. Further, an actuator that drives a part of the first toy body 20M may be included.

The identification information storage unit 65 can memorize the identification information 41 input by the identification information input unit 32. In the present embodiment, it is possible to memorize a plurality of types or to memorize at least two types. In this example, the three types of identification information 41 of the identification information 41 input by the identification information input unit 32 can be stored in the identification information storage unit 65. When the identification information 41 is re-entered, the three types of identification information 41 can be deleted. The identification information 41 input first is the earliest identification information 41.

The function of the identification information storage unit 65 will be specifically described based on Fig. 6 .

For example, in FIG. 6(a), when the identification information input unit 32 sequentially inputs the identification information 41A, the identification information 41B, and the identification information 41C, the identification information storage unit 65 uses the identification information 41A as the input order. (The input order is the first identification information", the identification information 41B is "the (input order) second identification information", and the identification information 41C is stored as "(the input order is the third identification information)". Next, in FIG. 6(b), for example, when the identification information 41M is input, the first identification information 41A is deleted, and the identification information 41B is referred to as "the first input information of the input order" and the identification information 41C is regarded as "( The input order is "the second identification information", the order is advanced, and the re-entered identification information 41M is memorized as the third identification information. Similarly, in FIG. 6(c), when the identification information 41A is re-entered, the first identification information 41B is deleted, and the identification information 41C is referred to as "(input order is the first identification information)", and the identification information is 41M. As the "identification information of the second (in the input order)", the order is advanced, and the identification information 41A is stored as "the identification information of the third input order".

Return to Figure 5. In the motion information storage unit 66, as shown in FIG. 5, motion information for operating the motion unit 63 is stored in association with each of the identification information 41. Further, the motion information storage unit 66 stores the combined motion information corresponding to the specific combination among the combinations of the two or more types of the identification information 41 (in this example, the combination of the three kinds of identification information 41).

The operation control unit 61 is connected to one of the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L. When the second toy body 50 is present, one type of identification information 41 stored in the three types of identification information 41 stored in the motion information storage unit 66 is read based on a specific rule, and the information storage unit 66 automatically reads the motion information corresponding thereto. The operation unit 63 operates based on the read operation information. Then, if the other of the second toy bodies 50 that is not connected to the second toy body 50 in the first connection portion 26R and the second connection portion 26L is connected to the other second toy body 50, the memory is read and stored in the motion information storage unit based on a specific rule. One of the identification information 41 of the three kinds of identification information 41 of 66, the automatic information storage unit 66 reads the operation information corresponding thereto, and causes the operation unit 63 to operate based on the read operation information.

For the "specific rule" for reading one type of identification information 41 stored in the identification information 41 of the motion information storage unit 66, various rules are considered. For example, in the present embodiment, the operation control unit 61 is the first. When the second toy body 50 is connected to one of the connection portion 26R and the second connection portion 26L, the first identification information 41 stored in the three types of identification information 41 stored in the operation information storage unit 66 is read (if the input order is the earliest) The identification information, for example, the first, second, and third identification information 41 stored in the identification information storage unit 66 is the identification information 41A as shown in FIG. 6(a), and the information storage unit 66 automatically reads and corresponds thereto. The action information causes the operation unit 63 to operate based on the read operation information, and secondly, the other of the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L that is not connected to the second toy body 50 is connected to the other. In the case of the toy body 50, the second identification information 41 among the three types of identification information 41 stored in the motion information storage unit 66 is read (if the identification information of the second early input order is entered, for example, the first information stored in the identification information storage unit 66 The second and third identification information 41 are in the state of FIG. 6(a), and the identification information is 41B), for automatic information memory section 66 reads out information corresponding to the operation of the operation unit 63 based on the read-out operation information of the operation. In the following description, the rule is referred to as "the first example of the specific rule" for convenience of explanation.

Further, as another example of the "specific rule", the operation control unit 61 may read and store the second toy body 50 when one of the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L is connected to the operation information storage unit. In the identification information 41 of the 66, the identification information 41 that is the latest in the input order is the input identification information 41 that is input in advance (if the first identification information 41 in the present embodiment, for example, It is recalled that the first, second, and third identification information 41 of the identification information storage unit 66 is the identification information 41A) as shown in FIG. 6(a), and the information storage unit 66 automatically reads the corresponding motion information. The operation unit 63 is operated based on the read operation information. Then, the other of the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L that is not connected to the second toy body 50 is connected to the other second toy body 50. Then, the identification information 41 stored in the identification information 41 stored in the motion information storage unit 66 is input one by one in advance of the identification information 41 that is the latest in the input order (if the second identification information in the present embodiment, for example, is stored in the identification information memory) The first, second, and third identification information 41 of the unit 66 is the identification information 41B) as shown in FIG. 6(a), and the information storage unit 66 automatically reads the operation information corresponding thereto, so that the action unit 63 is based on the action unit 63. The action information is read and operated. In the following description, the rule is referred to as "the second example of the specific rule" for convenience of explanation.

Further, as another example of the "specific rule", the operation control unit 61 may read and store the second toy body 50 when one of the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L is connected to the operation information storage unit. The third identification information 41 of the three kinds of identification information 41 of 66 (if the input information of the latest input order, for example, the first, second, and third identification information 41 stored in the identification information storage unit 66 is as shown in FIG. 6(a) The state is the identification information 41C), and the automatic information storage unit 66 reads the operation information corresponding thereto, and causes the operation unit 63 to operate based on the read operation information. In the following description, the convenience of description will be referred to as "the third example of the specific rule". In the case of the "third example of the specific rule", before the other second toy body 50 is connected to the other of the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L to which the second toy body 50 is not connected The new identification information is input to the identification information input unit. For example, the new identification information 41M is input as shown in FIG. 6(b), and the third identification information in the identification information storage unit 66 is changed to the identification information 41M. When the other of the second toy body 50 is connected to the other of the second toy body 50, the other one of the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L is connected to the other second toy body 50, and is read and stored in accordance with the "third example of the specific rule". The third identification information 41 of the three types of identification information 41 of the information storage unit 66, that is, if the state is as shown in FIG. 6(b), the identification information 41M is read, and the automatic identification is performed. The information storage unit 66 reads the operation information corresponding thereto, and causes the operation unit 63 to operate based on the read operation information.

Further, when the operation unit 27 is operated, the operation control unit 61 determines whether or not the identification information 41 (three kinds of identification information 41 in the example) stored in the identification information storage unit 65 is a specific combination, and is a specific combination. When the automatic information storage unit 66 reads the combined operation information corresponding to the specific combination, the operation unit 63 operates based on the read combined operation information.

Next, a use example (combination example) of the action toy 10 will be described based on Fig. 7 . The "specific rule" for reading one type of identification information 41 stored in the identification information 41 of the action information storage unit 66 is the "first example of the specific rule" described above.

First, the user selects two second toy bodies 50 that are left and right arms in the action toy 10 to be completed, and three identification information holding members that include the identification information holding members 40 of the second toy bodies 50 are prepared. 40.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7(a), the second toy body 50A and the second toy body 50B are selected. In addition to the identification information holding member 40A and the identification information holding member 40B of each of the selected second toy body 50A and the second toy body 50B, the identification information holding member 40M corresponding to the first toy body 20M is prepared. Then, the identification information holding member 40A is inserted into the input insertion hole portion 23 (arrow (1)), and the identification information 41A is input to the identification information input portion 32, and the identification information holding member 40A is inserted into the input insertion hole portion 23. Pull out (arrow (2)). At this time, the operation control unit 61 (see FIG. 5) automatically reads the operation information corresponding to the identification information 41A by the information storage unit 66 (see FIG. 5), and based on the read operation information, the operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5). ) Produce an input sound. The identification information 41B of the identification information holding member 40B and the identification information 41M of the identification information holding member 40M are sequentially input to the identification information input unit 32 in the same manner. Thereby, in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5), the three kinds of identification information 41 are memorized in the order of the identification information 41A, the identification information 41B, and the identification information 41M. That is, the identification information 41A is stored as the first identification information, the identification information 41B is stored as the second identification information, and the identification information 41M is stored as the third identification information.

Next, as shown in FIG. 7(b), the identification information holding member 40A is inserted into the second toy body 50A and held (arrow (3)), and the second toy body 50A is connected to the first connecting portion 26R (arrow (4) )). Then, the operation control unit 61 (see FIG. 5) reads the first identification information 41A stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) based on the "first example of the specific rule", and automatically performs the information storage unit. 66 (see FIG. 5), the operation information corresponding to the identification information 41A is read, and based on the read operation information, the automatic creation unit 63 (see FIG. 5) generates a connection effect sound corresponding to the identification information 41A (for example, common The effect sound "Gaburincho" and the sound of the type name of the second toy body 50A). Further, the identification information holding member 40B is inserted into the second toy body 50B to be held (arrow (5)), and the second toy body 50B is connected to the second connection portion 26L (arrow (6)). As a result, the operation control unit 61 (see FIG. 5) reads the second identification information 41B stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) based on the "first example of the specific rule", and automatically performs the information memory. The portion 66 (see FIG. 5) reads the operation information corresponding to the identification information 41B, and based on the read operation information, the automatic creation unit 63 (see FIG. 5) generates a connection effect sound corresponding to the identification information 41B (for example, common The connection effect sound "Gaburincho" and the sound of the type name of the second toy body 50B).

In the second toy body 50A that is connected first, the effect sound system is connected to the identification information 41A (for example, the sound of the common connection effect sound "Gaburincho" and the type name of the second toy body 50A), and is connected thereafter. In the second toy body 50B, it corresponds to the identification information 41B (for example, the sound of the type name of the common connection effect sound "Gaburincho" and the second toy body 50B). As described above, when the second toy body 50 is sequentially connected to the first toy body 20M in the order in which the identification information 41 is input to the identification information input unit 32, the user can input the identification information 41A as if the second toy body 50A is connected. When the second toy body 50B is connected, the identification information 41B is input, and the connection effect sounds corresponding to the second toy bodies 50A and 50B are output.

In the case where the second toy body 50B is first connected to the second toy body 50A, when the second toy body 50B is connected, a connection effect sound corresponding to the identification information 41A is generated (for example). For example, the common connection effect sound "Gaburincho" and the sound of the type name of the second toy body 50A). That is, a connection effect sound that does not correspond to the connected second toy body 50B is generated. However, in this case, the user recognizes that the order in which the second toy body 50 is connected is inconsistent with the order in which the identification information 41 is input (with specific rules). ("The first example of the specific rule" is inconsistent), so the order in which the identification information 41 is input is managed to match the order in which the second toy body 50 is connected.

Next, as shown in FIG. 7(c), when the operation unit 27 is pressed by hand, the operation control unit 61 (see FIG. 5) receives a signal from the operation unit 27, and determines that it is stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5). Whether the identification information 41A, the identification information 41B, and the identification information 41M are specific combinations. Then, when the identification information 41A, the identification information 41B, and the identification information 41M are specific combinations, the automatic information storage unit 66 (see FIG. 5) reads the combined operation information corresponding to the specific combination, and based on the read combination operation information, The completion sound of the fit is generated by the operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5).

A control example of the action toy 10 used as described above will be described in detail based on FIGS. 8 to 11 . The "specific rule" for reading one type of identification information 41 stored in the identification information 41 of the motion information storage unit 66 is the "first example of the specific rule". Furthermore, the present invention is not particularly limited to this control example.

As shown in FIG. 8, first, in step S1, it is determined whether or not the identification information 41 is input to the identification information input unit 32 (see FIG. 3). When the identification information 41 is not input, the process proceeds to step 10.

On the other hand, in step S1, when the identification information 41 is input, in step 2, the input identification information 41 is stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5), and in step 3, the automatic creation unit 63 (refer to FIG. 5) outputs an input effect sound corresponding to the input identification information 41. For example, the name of the second toy body 50 (see FIG. 3) corresponding to the input identification information 41 is output by sound.

Next, in step 4, it is judged whether or not the next identification information 41 is input to the identification information input unit 32 (see FIG. 3). When the identification information 41 is not input, the process proceeds to step 10. On the other hand, when the next identification information 41 is input, the process proceeds to step 5, and the determination is recorded in the identification information. Whether or not the identification information 41 of the memory unit 65 (see FIG. 5) has reached three types. When the identification information 41 does not reach the three types, the process returns to step 2.

In step 5, when the stored identification information 41 reaches three types, the first identification information 41 of the three types of identification information 41 that are memorized is deleted in step 6, and in step 7, the input is entered. After the identification information 41 is stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) as the third identification information 41, in the same manner as in step 3, in step 8, the automatic creation unit 63 (see FIG. 5) outputs and inputs. The input effect sound corresponding to the identification information 41.

Then, as shown in FIG. 9, in step 9, it is determined whether or not another identification information 41 is input to the identification information input unit 32 (see FIG. 3). When the identification information 41 is input, the process returns to step 6.

On the other hand, when the identification information 41 is not input, the process proceeds to step 10, and the first connection detecting unit 36R and the second connection detecting unit 36L (see FIG. 3) determine the first connecting unit 26R and the 2 Whether or not the second toy body 50 is connected to any of the connecting portions 26L (see FIG. 3). When the second toy body 50 is not connected, the process proceeds to step 24. When the second toy body 50 is connected, in step 11, it is determined whether or not the three types of identification information 41 are stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5).

In step 11, when the three kinds of identification information 41 are memorized, in step 12, the first identification information 41 is read from the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) based on the "first example of the specific rule". In step 13, the automatic information storage unit 66 (see FIG. 5) reads the operation information corresponding to the read first identification information 41, and in step 14, the operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5) is based on the operation information. The action information is read and the action is performed. For example, after "Gaburincho!" which is a common sound in the connection effect sound, the "name of the second toy body 50" corresponding to the first identification information 41 is output as a connection effect sound.

On the other hand, in step 11, when the three pieces of identification information 41 are not stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5), the conditions for generating the connection effect sound corresponding to the identification information 41 are not provided, and in step 15, In the middle, the automatic processing unit 63 (refer to FIG. 5) outputs an ordinary connection effect. Sound (for example, "Gaburincho!" as a common sound only).

Next, as shown in FIG. 10, in step 16, it is determined whether or not the second toy body 50 is connected to one of the first connecting portion 26R or the second connecting portion 26L to which the second toy body 50 is not connected. When the second toy body 50 is connected, steps 17 to 20 are executed in the same manner as steps 11 to 14. On the other hand, when the second toy body 50 is not connected, the routine proceeds to step S24.

Then, as shown in FIG. 11, in step 22, it is determined whether or not the second toy body 50 is connected to both of the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L. When the second toy body 50 is connected to both the first connection portion 26R and the second connection portion 26L, the automatic operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5) outputs the alarm operation unit 27 (see FIG. 3) in step S23. Any operation standby sound.

On the other hand, when the second toy body 50 is not connected to both of the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L, the operation standby sound is not output, and the process proceeds to step S24.

In step 24, it is judged whether or not the operation unit 27 (refer to FIG. 3) is operated. When the operation unit 27 (see FIG. 3) is not operated, the process returns to step 4. On the other hand, when the operation unit 27 (see FIG. 3) is operated, it is determined in step 25 whether or not the identification information 41 is input to the identification information input unit 32 (the state in which the identification information holding member 40 is inserted).

In step 25, when the identification information input unit 32 is not in the state in which the identification information 41 is input, the condition for completing the combination is not completed. In step 26, the automatic operation unit 63 (refer to FIG. 5) outputs only the operation effect. Tone (for example, only as the name of the combined robot in the common sound in the operation sound).

On the other hand, in step S25, when the identification information input unit 32 is input with the identification information 41, in step 27, three types of identification information 41 stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) are determined. Whether it is a specific combination. When the three kinds of identification information 41 that are memorized are a specific combination, in step 28, the automatic information storage unit 66 (see FIG. 5) reads the combined operation information corresponding to the specific combination, and in step 29, the operation unit 63 is caused. (Refer to FIG. 5) The operation is performed based on the read combined operation information.

For example, the three types of identification information 41 are identification information 41A, identification information 41B, and identification information. In the case of the combination of the 41M, the sound of "Complete!" is output with the samba's rhythm, and the "combination robot name" as the common sound is also output as the completion effect sound. Alternatively, when the three types of identification information 41 are a combination of the identification information 41B, the identification information 41C, and the identification information 41M, the sound of the "None!" is outputted with the rhythm of the western music, and the "combined robot" as the common sound is also output. The name." Alternatively, when the three pieces of identification information 41 are a combination of the identification information 41C, the identification information 41D, and the identification information 41M, the sound of "Complete!" is outputted by the rhythm of Tahiti, and the "combined robot" as a common sound is also output. The name."

On the other hand, in step 27, when the three types of identification information 41 that are memorized are not specific combinations, in step 30, based on the stored identification information 41, "finish!" is not particularly rhythmically outputted. The sound is also output as the "combination robot name" of the common sound as the completion effect sound. However, after the output, the effect sound corresponding to each of the identification information 41 stored in the identification information storage unit 66 is output (for example, "Gongon" when the identification information 41A is memorized, and "Doridori" when the identification information 41B is memorized. Wait).

The effect of the action toy 10 in the present embodiment described above will be described.

In the operating toy 10 of the present embodiment, the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L are not provided at the same position as the identification information input unit 32, and are provided at different positions. In other words, even if the connection portion is two like the first connection portion 26R and the second connection portion 26L, the identification information input unit 32 is not provided in the first connection portion 26R and the second connection portion 26L, so that the identification information can be reduced. The input unit 32 may be, for example, only one as in the present embodiment. Moreover, the identification information input portion 32 is small, so that it is possible to provide an action toy 10 that is inexpensive compared to the previous phonological toy and that corresponds to the connection of the toy bodies to each other, and provides a difficulty in generating identification. The action toy 10 in the information input unit 32 that recognizes that the information is input poorly and does not cause an operation failure. Further, unlike the connection work, the input operation of the identification information can suppress the occurrence of a defect due to the failure of the identification information input in the identification information input unit 32.

When the first connection detecting unit 36R and the second connection detecting unit 36L detect that the second toy body 50 is connected to the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L, the memory is read and recognized based on a specific rule. One type of identification information 41 of the identification information 41 of the information storage unit 65 (for example, in the "first example of the specific rule"), the first identification information 41 is read when the second toy body 50 connected first is connected, and is connected. When the second toy body 50 is connected to the second toy body 50, the second identification information 41 is read. In the "second example of the specific rule", when the second toy body 50 connected first is connected, the latest identification information 41 from the input order is read in advance. Identification information of two inputs, when the second toy body connected after the connection is connected, the identification information of the latest input information from the input order 41 is read in advance, and the identification information is input one by one, and in the "third example of the specific rule", the connection is made. At the time point of the second toy body 50, the latest identification information 41) of the input order is read, and an action (sound) corresponding to the read identification information 41 is generated. In this way, when the user studies the order of inputting the identification information 41 and the order in which the second toy body 50 is connected according to a specific rule, the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L do not have the identification information input unit. When the second toy body 50 is connected by the identification information input unit provided in the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L, the type of the second toy body 50 is determined, and the corresponding operation is performed (for example, the output is connected). The sound of the type name of the second toy body 50).

Although the present invention has been described above using the embodiments, the technical scope of the present invention is of course not limited to the scope described in the above embodiments. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications and improvements can be made to the above-described embodiments. Further, it is to be understood that the modifications and improvements may be included in the technical scope of the present invention.

For example, in the above-described embodiment, the portion including the identification information holding unit 43 in the second toy body 50 can be detached as the identification information holding member 40, but the identification information holding unit 43 and the second toy body 50 can be integrated.
