Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to exercise toys such as punch and kick toys.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a weight is attached to a target made of vinyl or the like and inflated by air pressure, and the target is lifted to stand up like a Koboshi, and a target is punched or kicked to defeat the target. There are punch and kick toys to play with.

[0003]

In the conventional punch and kick toys, when a punch or kick is simply given, the toy is tilted according to its strength. For this reason, there is a drawback that you get tired soon. An object of the present invention is to provide an exercise toy that can be played for a long time without getting tired.

[0004]

According to the present invention, in a toy for punching and kicking constituted by a target such as a rising up lawmaker, an acceleration sensor is provided in the target and the impact given to the target is detected by the acceleration sensor. To do. The detection signal detected by the acceleration sensor is given to the AD converter, and the AD converter classifies the impact intensity into a plurality of sections and performs AD conversion. The AD conversion outputs classified by intensity are given to the voice memory as address signals to access the voice data storage area of the voice memory. When the voice data storage area is accessed, the voice data is read from the accessed voice data storage area.
The read audio data is DA converted, and the sound is emitted as a sound by the loudspeaker. For example, when it is very strong, it is "mighty", when it is just strong, it is "do not do", and when it is medium, "it is still". If it is weak, a sound such as "Choroize" is emitted and the punch or kick force is judged by voice.

By determining the punching force or the kicking force as described above, it is necessary to practice so that the punching force or the kicking force can be given as much as possible by studying how to hit or changing the hitting position. It can be carried out. Therefore, you can play without getting tired.

1 to 4 show an embodiment of an exercise toy according to the present invention. In the figure, 1 indicates a sensor box. The sensor box 1 is made of, for example, a resin material in a hemispherical shape. The weight 2 is attached to the bottom surface of the hemisphere so that the cut surface of the hemisphere returns to the upward posture regardless of any posture. On the hemispherical cut surface, a target 3 formed of a sheet such as vinyl and inflated by air pressure is attached. In other words, the target 3 is made so that it does not hurt even if it is punched by a human hand or kicked with a foot. The shape of the target 3 may be human or animal. The target 3 and the sensor box 1 are shielded by a partition wall so that the air inflating the target 3 does not leak from the sensor box 1.

Inside the sensor box 1, besides the weight 2, a sensor unit 4, a speaker 5 and a battery box 6 are provided.
Is provided. A battery 7 is attached to the battery box 6,
The electronic circuit provided in the sensor unit 4 is operated. FIG. 3 shows the configuration of the electronic circuit provided in the sensor unit 4.
The electronic circuit includes, for example, an acceleration sensor 11 including an acceleration detection element formed of a piezoelectric element or a semiconductor, an AD converter 12 that classifies impact detection signals of the acceleration sensor 11 into a plurality of sections, and AD-converts them. An audio data memory 13 whose audio data storage area is selected and read by the AD conversion output of the AD converter 12, and a DA for converting the audio data read from the audio data memory 13 to DA.
It is composed of a converter 14 and a loudspeaker 15 which outputs the DA converted output of the DA converter 14 as sound. The loudspeaker 15 is composed of an amplifier 15A and a speaker 5.

FIG. 4 shows the conversion operation of the AD converter 12.
The detection signal A1 of the acceleration sensor 11 is, for example, 1 G or more and 2 G or more.
If it is the following, the AD conversion output is set to "0001", and if the detection signal A2 is 2G or more and 3G or less, the AD conversion output is "0".
010 ", if the detection signal A3 is 3G or more and 4G or less, the AD conversion output is" 0011 ", and the detection signal A4 is 4
If it is G or more, the AD conversion output is set to "0100".

The AD conversion output is used as the voice data memory 13
Of the voice data memory 13, the corresponding storage area is accessed from the plurality of voice data storage areas. For example, the AD conversion output is "0
When the storage area A is "001", the storage area A (not shown) is accessed, and the storage area A is read from the start address to the end address. If it is assumed that voice data obtained by sampling and AD-converting voice such as “choroise” is sequentially written in the memory area A in the order of addresses, the voice data is read and the DA converter 1
4, DA conversion is performed, and the DA conversion output is input to the loudspeaker 15 and is emitted as sound from the speaker 5.

When the AD conversion output is "0010", the storage area B is accessed. In the storage area B, for example, it is assumed that the audio data “still yet” is sampled and AD converted audio data is sequentially written in the order of addresses.
This voice data is read out, input to the DA converter 14, and emitted as sound from the speaker 5. When the AD conversion output is "0011", the storage area C is accessed. For example, if the storage area C stores voice data "Do not do", this voice data is read. This audio data is DA converted by the DA converter 14 and is emitted as sound by the speaker 5.

When the AD conversion output is "0100", the storage area D is accessed. If, for example, voice data saying “I have done” is written in the storage area D, this voice data is read out, DA-converted, and emitted as voice from the speaker 5.

[0012]

As described above, according to the present invention, when the target 3 is punched or kicked, the impact is detected by the acceleration sensor 11, and the magnitude of the impact is A.
The D converter 12 discriminates and AD-converts. By giving the AD conversion output of the AD converter 12 to the voice data memory 13, each voice data stored in the voice data memory 13 is selected and read, and a language for determining the size of punch or kick is emitted as voice. It

Therefore, various punching methods or kicking methods can be tried to study a hitting method that can give a strong punch or a kicking method that gives a strong kick, so that the player can play without getting tired.
