(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.

As shown in FIG. 3, the first toy body 20 M has a body part 21 and two left and right leg parts 22 provided at the lower part of the body part 21. Also in the first toy body 20M, unique identification information 41M is set, and a unique identification information holding member 40M that holds 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 23 into which the identification information holding member 40 can be inserted is provided in a portion corresponding to the mouth portion of the dinosaur in the body portion 21. Further, a first connection portion 26R and a second connection portion 26L are provided at positions different from the input insertion hole portion 23 (here, the right side portion 25R and the left side portion 25L of the body portion 21). . When the first connecting portion 26R and the second connecting portion 26L are connected to the upper second toy body 50 to which the identification information holding member 40 is attached, the attached identification information holding member 40 is inserted. It has a hole. Further, an operation unit 27 that is pressed by the user is provided at a front side part (for example, a chest) of the body part 21, and a power switch 28 is provided at a back side part of the body part 21.

As shown in FIG. 4A, an input positioning recess 31 into which a positioning rib 42 (see FIG. 2B) can be fitted is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the input insertion hole 23. Further, an identification information input unit 32 is provided in the back of the input insertion hole 23.

The identification information input unit 32 is a part to which the identification information 41 (see FIG. 2) of the identification information holding member 40 is input, and a plurality (this example) corresponding to the number and arrangement of the identified units 46 (see FIG. 2). Then, it is composed of six input switches 33. Each input switch 33 detects the presence or absence of a protrusion 45 (see FIG. 2) at a corresponding position when the identification information holding member 40 (see FIG. 2) is inserted into the input insertion hole 23, and is identified. Information 41 (see FIG. 2) is detected. Each input switch 33 is always urged, for example, in a direction protruding toward the opening side of the input insertion hole 23, and when there is a protrusion 45 (see FIG. 2), the input switch 33 moves backward and the protrusion 45 (see FIG. 2) On the other hand, when there is no protrusion 45 (see FIG. 2), it is detected that the protrusion 45 (see FIG. 2) is maintained, and the movable switch detects that there is no protrusion 45 (see FIG. 2). The user points either one of the axial end portions of the identification information holding member 40 (see FIG. 2) toward the input insertion hole 23 and aligns the positioning rib 42 (see FIG. 2) with the input positioning recess 31. The identification information 41 (see FIG. 2) can be input to the identification information input unit 32 by inserting the identification information holding member 40 (see FIG. 2) to the back of the input insertion hole 23.

Note that the identification information input unit is not limited to that of this embodiment. Any identification information input unit may be used depending on how the identification information is held in the identification information holding member and the identification information holding unit. For example, if the identification information holding member is a card and the identification information holding unit is a barcode printed on the card, the identification information input unit may be constituted by a barcode reader. Similarly, even if the identification information holding member is a card, it is possible to input characters and / or numbers if the identification information holding part is composed of a character string, a numeric string, or a combination thereof printed on the card. What should I do? Furthermore, when the identification information holding unit is configured with an RFID tag, the identification information input unit may be configured with an RFID tag reader for reading the identification information held.

Now, as shown in FIG. 4B and FIG. 4C, a connection in which a positioning rib 42 (see FIG. 2) can be fitted to the inner peripheral surfaces of the first connection portion 26R and the second connection portion 26L. A positioning recess 35 is provided. Furthermore, a first connection detection unit 36R and a second connection detection unit 36L are provided in each of the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L.

The first connection detection unit 36R and the second connection detection unit 36L can be configured by various switches, and when the second toy body 50 is connected to the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L, respectively. Then, it is detected that the second toy body 50 (see FIG. 3) is connected. For example, the first connection detection unit 36R and the second connection detection unit 36L can be configured by a movable switch that moves in accordance with the insertion of the second toy body 50 (see FIG. 3). . In the present embodiment, since the identification information holding member 40 can be attached to the second toy body 50, the second toy body also applies to the first connection detection unit 36R and the second connection detection unit 36L. 50 is configured by a movable switch that is moved by the identification information holding member 40 attached to the second toy body 50 when the first connection portion 26R and the second connection portion 26L are connected. Needless to say, it is not limited to. The first connection detection unit 36R and the second connection detection unit 36L only need to be able to detect the connection of the second toy body 50 to the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L by some means. For example, the first connection detection unit 36R and the 2nd connection detection part 36L may be used as a light quantity sensor, and you may make it detect a connection according to the reduction | decrease in the light quantity input into the light quantity sensor by having connected the 2nd toy body 50. FIG. Further, the infrared light emitting unit and the light receiving unit are used, and in response to the infrared light emitted from the light emitting unit being reflected by the connected second toy body 50 and received by the light receiving unit, the second toy body 50. The connection may be detected. Also, the first connection part 26R and the second connection part 26L themselves are movable switches to form the first connection detection part 36R and the second connection detection part 36L, and the second toy body 50 is connected. The connection may be detected by moving and turning on. That is, the method for detecting the connection of the second toy body 50 in the first connection detection unit 36R and the second connection detection unit 36L is arbitrary, and the identification information holding member 40 can be attached to the second toy body 50. The identification information holding member 40 is of course not provided on the second toy body 50, and the identification information holding member 43 is provided on the second toy body 50 itself. Even if the identification information holding member 40 does not constitute a part of the second toy body 50, a connection detection method according to the connection information can be arbitrarily selected.

Return to Fig. 3. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, as described above, the second toy body 50 is set in three types: the second toy body 50A, the second toy body 50B, and the second toy body 50C. Is done. Each second toy body 50 in the present embodiment is detachably inserted into a main body 51 imitating a dinosaur, an insertion hole 52 provided in a dinosaur mouth of the main body 51, and the insertion hole 52. Identification information holding member 40. In the present embodiment, each second toy body 50 is connected to the first connection portion 26R or the second connection portion 26L in a state where the identification information holding member 40 is held in the insertion hole portion 52, and the first toy body 50 is connected to the first connection portion 26R. Toy body 20M. In addition, in this embodiment, although it is set as the structure which can attach the identification information holding member 40 to the 2nd toy body 50, this is not essential. The second toy body 50 and the identification information holding member 40 are separated from each other. Even when the second toy body 50 is connected to the first toy body 20M, the identification information holding member 40 is a part of the second toy body 50. The part may not be configured.

In the present embodiment, the main body portions 51 of the

second toy bodies

50A, 50B, 50C are different from each other in appearance (for example, color, shape, pattern, etc.). Further, the identification

information holding members

40A, 40B, and 40C corresponding to the

second toy bodies

50A, 50B, and 50C have substantially the same outer shape, but can be distinguished by differences in colors, patterns, characters, and the like. . Thereby, even if the identification information holding member 40 is removed from the second toy body 50, the user can determine which second toy body 50 the identification information holding member 40 corresponds to. Can be easily recognized.

(Internal configuration of first toy body 20M)
Next, the internal configuration of the first toy body 20M will be described with reference to FIGS.
As shown in FIG. 5, the first toy body 20 M has an operation control unit 61 inside. A battery 62 is connected to the operation control unit 61 via a power switch 28. When the power switch 28 is turned on, a current flows through the operation control unit 61 and control is started.

Also, 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. Furthermore, the operation control unit 61 is connected with an operation unit 63, an identification information storage unit 65, and an operation information storage unit 66. 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 operation unit 63 includes sound generation means (for example, a speaker) that generates sound. Here, the operation unit 63 including the sound generation unit is illustrated, but the “operation unit” referred to in the present invention includes a light emission unit such as an LED (light emitting diode) in addition to the sound generation unit, and a combination of the sound generation unit and the light emission unit. May be good. Moreover, you may comprise with the actuator which drives a part of 1st toy body 20M.

The identification information storage unit 65 can store the identification information 41 input by the identification information input unit 32. In the present embodiment, a plurality of identification information can be stored, or at least two or more can be stored. In this example, among the identification information 41 input from the identification information input unit 32, a maximum of three pieces of identification information 41 can be stored in the identification information storage unit 65, and when the identification information 41 is newly input, 3 Among the two pieces of identification information 41, the identification information 41 input first, that is, the oldest identification information 41 is erased.

The function of the identification information storage unit 65 will be specifically described with reference to FIG.
For example, in FIG. 6A, when the identification information 41A, the identification information 41B, and the identification information 41C are sequentially input from the identification information input unit 32, the identification information storage unit 65 sets the identification information 41A to “(input The first identification information ”is stored in order, the identification information 41B is stored as“ second identification information in (input order) ”, and the identification information 41C is stored as“ third identification information in (input order) ”. Next, in FIG. 6B, for example, when the identification information 41M is input, the first identification information 41A is deleted, and the identification information 41B is changed to “(first input information) first identification information”. The information 41C is set as “second identification information (the input order is)”, and the rank is advanced, and the newly input identification information 41M is stored as the third identification information. Similarly, in FIG. 6C, when the identification information 41A is newly input, the first identification information 41B is deleted, and the identification information 41C is changed to “the first identification information (in order of input)”, The identification information 41M is set as “second identification information (input order)”, and the rank is advanced, and the identification information 41A is stored as “third identification information (input order)”.

Return to FIG. As shown in FIG. 5, the operation information storage unit 66 stores operation information for operating the operation unit 63 in association with each identification information 41. Furthermore, the operation information storage unit 66 stores combination operation information corresponding to a specific combination among combinations of two or more pieces of identification information 41 (in this example, combinations of three pieces of identification information 41).

When the second toy body 50 is connected to one of the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L, the operation control unit 61 has three pieces of identification information 41 stored in the operation information storage unit 66. Among them, one piece of identification information 41 is read based on a predetermined rule, and the corresponding operation information is read from the operation information storage unit 66, and the operation unit 63 is operated based on the read operation information. Next, when another second toy body 50 is connected to the other of the first connection part 26R and the second connection part 26L to which the second toy body 50 is not connected, the motion information storage unit 66 is connected. Among the three pieces of identification information 41 stored in the table, one piece of identification information 41 is read based on a predetermined rule, and the corresponding operation information is read from the operation information storage unit 66. Based on the read operation information, The operation unit 63 is operated.

Among the identification information 41 stored in the operation information storage unit 66, there are various “predetermined rules” for reading with one identification information 41. For example, in this embodiment, the operation control unit 61, among the three pieces of identification information 41 stored in the operation information storage unit 66 when the second toy body 50 is connected to one of the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L. First identification information 41 (identification information having the oldest input order, for example, the first, second, and third identification information 41 stored in the identification information storage unit 66 is in the state shown in FIG. If there is, the identification information 41A) is read, the corresponding operation information is read from the operation information storage unit 66, the operation unit 63 is operated based on the read operation information, and then the first connection unit 26R and the first connection unit 26R 2 connection 2 When another second toy body 50 is connected to the other of L that is not connected to the second toy body 50, among the three pieces of identification information 41 stored in the operation information storage unit 66, Second identification information 41 (identification information whose input order is the second oldest, for example, the first, second, and third identification information 41 stored in the identification information storage unit 66 is as shown in FIG. If it is in the state, the identification information 41B) is read out, the corresponding operation information is read from the operation information storage unit 66, and the operation unit 63 is operated based on the read operation information. In the following description, this rule is referred to as “a first example of a predetermined rule” for convenience of description.

As another example of the “predetermined rule”, the operation control unit 61 operates when the second toy body 50 is connected to one of the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L. Among the identification information 41 stored in the information storage unit 66, the identification information 41 input two times before the identification information 41 with the newest input order (first identification information 41 in this embodiment, for example, identification information If the first, second, and third identification information 41 stored in the storage unit 66 is in the state as shown in FIG. 6A, the identification information 41A) is read and the corresponding operation information is stored in the operation information. The operation unit 63 is operated based on the operation information read out from the operation unit 66, and the other of the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L to which the second toy body 50 is not connected. And another second toy body When 0 is connected, among the identification information 41 stored in the operation information storage unit 66, the identification information 41 that is input immediately before the identification information 41 with the newest input order (the second information in this embodiment) If the identification information, for example, the first, second, and third identification information 41 stored in the identification information storage unit 66 is in the state as shown in FIG. 6A, the identification information 41B) is read, and accordingly The operation information is read from the operation information storage unit 66, and the operation unit 63 is operated based on the read operation information. In the following description, this rule is referred to as “second example of a predetermined rule” for convenience of description.

As another example of the “predetermined rule”, the operation control unit 61 operates when the second toy body 50 is connected to one of the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L. Among the three pieces of identification information 41 stored in the information storage unit 66, the third identification information 41 (the identification information with the newest input order, for example, the first, second, If the third identification information 41 is in the state as shown in FIG. 6A, the identification information 41C) is read out, and the corresponding operation information is read out from the operation information storage unit 66. Based on the read out operation information, The operation unit 63 may be operated. In the following description, this will be referred to as a “third example of a predetermined rule” for convenience of description. In the case of the “third example of the predetermined rule”, another second toy body 50 is connected to the other of the first connection part 26R and the second connection part 26L to which the second toy body 50 is not connected. Before entering, new identification information is input to the identification information input unit. For example, as shown in FIG. 6B, new identification information 41M is input, and the third identification information in the identification information storage unit 66 is input. If it is changed to the identification information 41M, after that, another second toy body 50 is connected to the other of the first connection part 26R and the second connection part 26L to which the second toy body 50 is not connected. Then, according to the “third example of the predetermined rule”, the third identification information 41 among the three identification information 41 stored in the motion information storage unit 66, that is, as shown in FIG. If the state is not correct, the identification information 41M is read, and the corresponding operation information Read from the operation information storage unit 66, based on the operation information thus read out, so that to operate the operation unit 63.

Furthermore, when the operation unit 27 is operated, the operation control unit 61 determines whether two or more pieces of identification information 41 (in this example, three pieces of identification information 41) stored in the identification information storage unit 65 are a specific combination. If the combination is a specific combination, the combination operation information corresponding to the specific combination is read from the operation information storage unit 66, and the operation unit 63 is operated in accordance with the read combination operation information.

Then, the usage example (unification example) of the operation | movement toy 10 is demonstrated based on FIG. Of the identification information 41 stored in the operation information storage unit 66, the “predetermined rule” to be read as one piece of identification information 41 is the “first example of the predetermined rule” described above.
First, the user selects two second toy bodies 50 to be the left and right arm portions in the action toy 10 to be completed, and includes three identification information holding members 40 of these second toy bodies 50. An identification information holding member 40 is prepared.

For example, as shown in FIG. 7A, 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 the selected second toy body 50A and second toy body 50B, an identification information holding member 40M corresponding to the first toy body 20M is prepared. To do. After the identification information holding member 40A is inserted into the input insertion hole 23 (arrow (1)) and the identification information 41A is input to the identification information input part 32, the identification information holding member 40A is inserted into the input insertion hole 23. Pull out from (arrow (2)). At this time, the operation control unit 61 (see FIG. 5) reads out the operation information corresponding to the identification information 41A from the operation information storage unit 66 (see FIG. 5), and the operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5) Input sound effects are generated from FIG. Similarly, 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. Thus, the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) stores three pieces of identification information 41 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. 7B, the identification information holding member 40A is inserted and held in the second toy body 50A (arrow (3)), and the second toy body 50A is attached to the first connecting portion 26R. Connect (arrow (4)). Then, the operation control unit 61 (see FIG. 5) reads out the first identification information 41A stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) based on the “first example of the predetermined rule”. Then, the operation information corresponding to the identification information 41A is read from the operation information storage unit 66 (see FIG. 5), and the identification information 41A is read from the operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5) based on the read operation information. A connection effect sound (for example, a common connection effect sound “Gabrincho” and a voice of the type name of the second toy body 50A) is generated. Further, the identification information holding member 40B is inserted and held in the second toy body 50B (arrow (5)), and the second toy body 50B is connected to the second connecting portion 26L (arrow (6)). Accordingly, 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 predetermined rule”. The operation information corresponding to the identification information 41B is read from the operation information storage unit 66 (see FIG. 5), and the identification information is obtained from the operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5) based on the read operation information. A connection effect sound corresponding to 41B (for example, a common connection effect sound “Gabrincho” and a voice of the type name of the second toy body 50B) is generated.

The connection sound effect corresponds to the identification information 41A in the previously connected second toy body 50A (for example, the common connection sound effect “Gabrincho” and the voice of the type name of the second toy body 50A). In the second toy body 50B connected later, the second toy body 50B corresponds to the identification information 41B (for example, the common connection sound effect “Gabrincho” and the voice of the type name of the second toy body 50B). Thus, if the 2nd toy body 50 is connected to the 1st toy body 20M in order according to the order which inputs the identification information 41 to the identification information input part 32, a user will be as if 2nd The identification information 41A is input when the toy body 50A is connected, and the connection sound effects corresponding to the

second toy bodies

50A and 50B are output as if the identification information 41B is input when the second toy body 50B is connected. Can be made.

When the second toy body 50B is connected before the second toy body 50A, a connection sound effect (for example, a common connection sound effect) corresponding to the identification information 41A is connected when the second toy body 50B is connected. "Gabrincho" and the voice of the type name of the second toy body 50A) are generated. That is, a connection sound effect that does not correspond to the connected second toy body 50B is generated. In such a case, the user performs the second toy body in the order in which the identification information 41 is input. The order of inputting the identification information 41 and the second toy body in order to recognize that the order of connecting 50 does not match (it does not match the predetermined rule (“first example of the predetermined rule”)) The device is adapted to match the order in which 50 are connected.

Next, as shown in FIG. 7C, when the operation unit 27 is pushed by hand, the operation control unit 61 (see FIG. 5) receives a signal from the operation unit 27, and the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5). The identification information 41A, the identification information 41B, and the identification information 41M stored in (1) are determined to be a specific combination. Then, when the identification information 41A, the identification information 41B, and the identification information 41M are a specific combination, the combination operation information corresponding to the specific combination is read from the operation information storage unit 66 (see FIG. 5), and the read combination operation information In response to this, a combined effect sound is generated by the operating unit 63 (see FIG. 5).

A control example of the moving toy 10 used as described above will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. Of the identification information 41 stored in the operation information storage unit 66, the “predetermined rule” to be read as one piece of identification information 41 is the “first example of the predetermined rule” described above. 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, when the identification information 41 is input in step S1, the input identification information 41 is stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) in step 2, and the input identification information is input in step 3. The input sound effect corresponding to 41 is output from the operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5). For example, the name of the second toy body 50 (see FIG. 3) corresponding to the input identification information 41 is output by voice.

Next, in step 4, it is determined 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 to determine whether or not the number of identification information 41 stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) has reached three. If the number of identification information 41 has not reached 3, the process returns to step 2.

If the number of stored identification information 41 has reached three in step 5, the first identification information 41 of the three stored identification information 41 is deleted in step 6 and input in step 7 After the stored identification information 41 is stored as the third identification information 41 in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5), the input sound effect corresponding to the input identification information 41 is input in step 8 as in step 3. Is output from the operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5).

Next, as shown in FIG. 9, it is determined in step 9 whether or not the next identification information 41 is further 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 in step 9, the process proceeds to step 10 where the first connection detection unit 36R and the second connection detection unit 36L (see FIG. 3) use the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit. It is determined whether or not the second toy body 50 is connected to any one of 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, it is determined in step 11 whether or not three pieces of identification information 41 are stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5).

When the three pieces of identification information 41 are stored in step 11, the first piece of identification information from the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) is obtained in step 12 based on “first example of predetermined rule”. 41, the operation information corresponding to the read first identification information 41 is read out from the operation information storage unit 66 (see FIG. 5) in step 13, and the operation unit based on the read out operation information in step 14 63 (see FIG. 5) is operated. For example, after “Gabrincho!” Which is the common sound in the connection sound effect, “name of the second toy body 50” corresponding to the first identification information 41 is output as the connection sound effect.

On the other hand, when the three pieces of identification information 41 are not stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) in step 11, it is determined that the conditions for generating the connection sound effect corresponding to the identification information 41 are not complete. 15, a normal connection sound effect (for example, only “Gabrincho!” Which is a common sound) is output from the operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5).

Next, as shown in FIG. 10, in step 16, the second toy body 50 is connected to the first connection part 26 R or the second connection part 26 L to which the second toy body 50 is not connected. It is judged whether it was done. 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 process proceeds to step 24.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11, in step 22, it is determined whether or not the second toy body 50 is connected to both the first connection part 26R and the second connection part 26L. When the second toy body 50 is connected to both the first connection part 26R and the second connection part 26L, in Step 23, an arbitrary operation standby sound that prompts the operation of the operation part 27 (see FIG. 3) is operated. It outputs from the part 63 (refer FIG. 5).

On the other hand, when the second toy body 50 is not connected to both the first connection part 26R and the second connection part 26L in step 22, the operation standby sound is not output and the process proceeds to step 24.

In step 24, it is determined whether or not the operation unit 27 (see FIG. 3) has been 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, in step 25, the identification information 41 is input to the identification information input unit 32 (the identification information holding member 40 is inserted). Judge whether there is.

If the identification information 41 is not input to the identification information input unit 32 in step 25, it is determined that the conditions for completing the combination are not complete, and in step 26, a simple operation sound effect (for example, a common operation sound effect) The voice “only the name of the combined robot” is output from the operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5).

On the other hand, when the identification information 41 is input to the identification information input unit 32 in step 25, the three identification information 41 stored in the identification information storage unit 65 (see FIG. 5) is stored in step 27. Whether or not is a specific combination. When the stored three identification information 41 is a specific combination, in step 28, combination operation information corresponding to the specific combination is read from the operation information storage unit 66 (see FIG. 5). The operation unit 63 (see FIG. 5) is operated according to the read combination operation information.

For example, when the three pieces of identification information 41 are a combination of the identification information 41A, the identification information 41B, and the identification information 41M, in addition to the voice "complete!" "Name" is output as a completed sound effect. Alternatively, when the three pieces of identification information 41 are a combination of the identification information 41B, the identification information 41C, and the identification information 41M, in addition to the voice "Complete!" "Name" is output. 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, in addition to the voice "Complete!" "Name" is output.

On the other hand, when the three identification information 41 stored in step 27 is not a specific combination, in step 30, based on the stored identification information 41, in addition to the voice "complete!" A certain “name of the combined robot” is output as a completed sound effect without any particular rhythm. However, the sound effect corresponding to each piece of identification information 41 stored in the post-output identification information storage unit 66 (for example, “Gongon” when the identification information 41A is stored and “Gongon” when the identification information 41B is stored) "Dodri" etc.) is output.

The effects of the moving toy 10 in the present embodiment described above will be described.
In the action toy 10 in the present embodiment, the first connection part 26R and the second connection part 26L are not provided at the same position as the identification information input part 32, but are provided at different positions. That is, even if there are two connection parts such as the first connection part 26R and the second connection part 26L, the identification information input part 32 is not provided in each of the first connection part 26R and the second connection part 26L. Therefore, the identification information input part 32 can be reduced, for example, it can also be only one place like this embodiment. Since the identification information input unit 32 is small, the operation toy 10 that operates according to the connection between toy bodies can be provided at a lower cost than the conventional sound generating toy. Therefore, it is possible to provide an operation toy 10 in which it is difficult to cause a problem such that an operation does not occur due to a malfunction in input of identification information. In addition to the connection work, the fact that the identification information input work is performed also suppresses the occurrence of problems due to the failure of the identification information input in the identification information input unit 32.

When the first connection detection unit 36R and the second connection detection unit 36L detect that the second toy body 50 is connected to the first connection unit 26R and the second connection unit 26L, the identification information is stored. Of the identification information 41 stored in the unit 65, one identification information 41 is read based on a predetermined rule (for example, in the “first example of the predetermined rule”, the previously connected second toy body The first identification information 41 is read when 50 is connected, and the second identification information 41 is read when the second toy body 50 connected later is connected. In the “second example of the predetermined rule”, the second identification information 41 connected first is read. When the toy body 50 is connected, the identification information input two times before the identification information 41 with the newest input order, and when the second toy body connected later is connected, the identification information 41 with the newest input order is one before the identification information 41. Read the identification information entered in the In the “third example of the predetermined rule”, the identification information 41 having the newest input order is read when the second toy body 50 is connected), and an operation (voice) corresponding to the read identification information 41 is generated. did. Thereby, in the user, if the order in which the identification information 41 is input and the order in which the second toy body 50 is connected are devised according to a predetermined rule, the first connection unit 26R and the second connection are actually made. Although there is no identification information input unit in the connection unit 26L, it is as if 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 user can feel as if the type is determined and a corresponding action is performed (for example, voice output of the type name of the connected second toy body 50).

As mentioned above, although this invention was demonstrated using embodiment, it cannot be overemphasized that the technical scope of this invention is not limited to the range as described in the said embodiment. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications or improvements can be added to the above-described embodiments. Further, it is apparent from the scope of the claims that the embodiments added with such changes or improvements can 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 is removable as the identification information holding member 40, but the identification information holding unit 43 is provided on the second toy body 50. It may be integrated.
