  • the connecting part 313 is formed with a certain degree of inclination in the downward direction of the doll-type toy 100. This is for the purpose of realizing a movement similar to that of a human hip joint. From the hip joint of a human, the left leg and the right leg each extend in a diagonal downward direction, and do not extend straight to the side. Therefore, by forming the connecting part 313 with an inclination similar to that of a human, a movement with a more natural impression can be realized.
  • the hip joint according to this embodiment can move in a diagonal downward direction. That is, the parts 203a, 203b connected to the connecting part 313 and the legs 107a, 107b connected to the parts can also rotate in a diagonal downward direction, or in a diagonal upward direction as a return direction.

  • the connecting portion 312 of part 201 is rotatably connected to the cylindrical receiving portion 401 of part 202 as a movable axis.
  • Part 202 is, for example, a clothing part of doll-type toy 100, and by connecting it to part 201, it becomes able to move in accordance with the hip joint. For example, when performing an action to bend leg 107, a more natural movement can be achieved with a wider range of motion.
  • Openings 402a, 402b are formed in part 202, into which legs 107a, 107b are inserted, respectively, for connection to connecting parts 332a, 332b of part 201.
  • legs 107a, 107b are rotatably connected to connecting parts 332a, 332b, and can therefore move within a range corresponding to the rotational movement.
  • the opening area of opening 402b formed in part 202 cannot be effectively utilized by simply rotating leg 107b around connecting part 332b as the axis of rotation.
  • the connecting portion 312 of the part 201 is formed in a spherical shape and connected to the part 202.
  • the part 201 can rotate in multiple directions within the range of the opening area of the openings 402a, 402b formed in the part 202. This makes it possible to effectively utilize the opening area of the openings 402a, 402b formed in the part 202, and further expand the range of movement.
  • FIG. 5(a) shows an exploded view of part 205a, which is part of leg 107a.
  • Figure 5(b) shows a cross-sectional view of part 203a and part 205a when connected. Note that the configuration of the right leg moving mechanism will be described using Figure 5, but the configuration of the left leg is similar and therefore will not be described.
  • part 205a of leg 107a further includes parts 341 to 344.
  • Part 341 is the base part of part 205a, and the spherical part 342 and the connection part 332a of part 203a are connected at the upper receiving part.
  • part 342 and connection part 332a of part 203a it functions as a spherical connecting part (ball joint).
  • ball joint By forming a ball joint with two parts, part 342 and part 203a, it is possible to secure the space required when assembling doll toy 100, compared to when it is realized with a single part.
  • parts 203a and 342 are assembled to form a ball joint, which is provided inside leg 107a. Therefore, leg 107a, which is connected to part 205a, can rotate in all directions relative to the hip joint, as indicated by arrow 501, within the limits of the other parts.
  • the cylindrical portion at the bottom of part 341 is rotatably inserted into the recess of part 344. Therefore, in leg 107a, the portion below part 344 can rotate in the direction of arrow 502 relative to part 341.
  • Figure 6 shows a cross-sectional view of the torso when cut along the A-A' cut surface in Figure 1A.
  • Part 201 is a connecting member that connects the abdomen 104 and waist 105, and is assembled with at least four movable mechanisms, indicated by arrows 601 to 604, together with the parts that are connected. Movement in the direction of arrow 601 indicates that part 201 can move in the vertical direction of the doll-type toy 100 from the abdomen 104, which is connected to the spherical connecting part 311. This allows part 201 and the waist 105 connected to part 201 to be shifted downward from the abdomen 104, creating a space between the abdomen 104 and waist 105. This space is intended to ensure space when moving in the directions of arrows 602 to 603, for example, and has the effect of further expanding the range of motion.
  • Arrow 602 indicates that part 202 can rotate in multiple directions relative to part 201, as explained using Figure 4. This operation has already been explained, so details will be omitted.
  • Arrow 603 indicates that parts 203a and 203b can rotate in the up and down directions of doll toy 100 relative to part 201, as explained using Figure 4. This operation has already been explained, so details will be omitted.
  • Arrow 604 indicates that part 201 can rotate in all directions relative to abdomen 104 within the spatial limitations imposed by other parts. This is because connecting portion 311 of part 201 is formed in a spherical shape. In this way, the movable mechanism centered on part 201 according to this embodiment is capable of at least the four movements described above. By combining these four movements, doll-type toy 100 according to this embodiment can achieve a variety of movements with a wider range of motion using fewer parts.
  • Figure 7 shows the posture when the leg 107 (part 205b of leg 107b) is rotated forward.
  • part 201 is pulled out downward. This causes the various parts of waist 105 and leg 107 connected to part 201 to be pulled out downward at the same time.
  • parts 203a and 203b can each be rotated diagonally downward (for example, 18 degrees) relative to connecting part 313 of part 201.
  • legs 107a and 107b also move in a direction away from the upper body of doll-type toy 100. Therefore, a gap is created between legs 107 and the upper body around the buttocks of doll-type toy 100, which breaks the lines of the doll-type toy 100's body shape and gives an unnatural impression.
  • part 202 can be rotated downward (for example, 20 degrees) relative to part 201.
  • part 202 forms part of the waist and part of the clothing, it can move in accordance with the movement of leg 107, making the body lines appear smoother.
  • the ball joint (610) formed by parts 205 and 203 allows the leg 107 to rotate within the spatial range of the clothing part. By operating in this manner, the leg 107 can be rotated greatly in the forward direction. Note that the order of the above-mentioned operations is not intended to limit the present invention, and the operations can be performed in any order.
