Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] The present invention relates to a shape-changing toy, and more specifically, when it is not deployed, it has a housing shape that imitates the appearance of a building, and a part of this housing is installed in the housing. It can be pulled out by being attached to the free end of the sheet that can be wound and unwound, and by pulling out a part of the casing,
The present invention relates to a shape-changing toy that can be deployed on a large scale, such as in amusement parks and urban areas.

2. Description of the Related Art Toys that can be assembled into houses, townscapes, etc., and that can be stored within a housing when not in use have been known.

However, conventional toys of this kind have a structure in which the casing is opened and various parts are assembled and arranged to form the interior of a building or a cityscape, etc., and the space in which the various parts can be placed is inside the casing. There was only limited space.

Therefore, there is a limit to variations, and the scope of use as a toy is small, and the user gets tired of it quickly, so there is room for improvement.

The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and includes a sheet-like body that is housed in a part of the housing so that it can be rolled up and undone.
By connecting a part of the casing to the free end side of this sheet-like body and making it possible to pull out a part of the casing, the building can be expanded to a large extent, and the range of use as a toy and space can be increased. The aim is to provide a shape-changing toy with the appearance of a building that has never been seen before.

The present invention will be described in detail below based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, the shape-changing toy 1 according to the present invention, when not in use, is formed as a whole in the shape of a casing that imitates the appearance of, for example, a house.

One side plate 2 of this shape-changing toy 1 formed into a housing shape
is formed to be openable and closable, and foldable via fold lines 2a and 2b.

One end of the fastening pieces 3, 3 is fixed to the free end side of the side plate 2 using, for example, Velcro or a hook, and the other end of these fastening pieces 3, 3 is attached to a drawer which will be described in detail later. The side plate 2 can be attached to the side surface of the portion 4, and the side plate 2 can be kept closed as shown in FIG. 1 when not in use.

The other side plate 5 opposite to the side plate 2 of the shape-changing toy 1 is fixed, and left and right side plates 6, 6 having relatively narrow widths stand up from this side plate 5.

A guide piece 6a is provided on the free end side of these left and right side plates 6,6.

6a is continuously formed in a freely bendable state.

On the other hand, the drawer part 4 constitutes a part of the casing-shaped shape-changing toy 1, but is made of a bark so that it can be pulled out separately from the main body side, and is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. It has a bulging portion 4a and a handle 4b attached to the bulging portion 4a, and side plates 4c, 4c are integrally formed on both sides thereof.

These side plates 4c, 4c are in contact with a stopper 7 formed to imitate an implant, etc. inside the side plates 6, 6 in the vicinity of their tips, and their insertion limits are restricted.

The lower end of the stopper 7 is spaced apart from the upper surface of the side plate 5 by an amount that allows a sheet-shaped body 11 (described later) to pass therethrough.

Incidentally, a decorative frame 8 is attached to the base end sides of the side plates 6, 6 of the shape-changing toy 1.

This decorative frame 8 is configured to imitate the appearance of, for example, a stage part of a park or amusement park, a drinking fountain, or play equipment, and may be fixed at both ends with adhesive or the like.

A rotary cylinder 9 is housed under the decorative frame 8.

This rotary cylinder 9 is a pair of halves made by dividing a cylinder into two.

9a are integrated with screws 10, and one end of a sheet-like body 11, which is slightly narrower in width than the gap between the side plates 6, 6, is clamped and fixed between the two halves 9a, 9a.

The drawer portion 4 is located on the other end side of this sheet-like body 11.
The lower end side of is fixed.

One end of the rotary cylinder 9 is rotatably supported on a bearing 12 protruding from one side of the side plate 6, and the other end is mounted on the inner end of a shaft 13 extending through the other side plate 6. It is fixed to the formed coupling 14.

A knob 15 is fixed to the other end of the shaft 13 in the appearance of the side plate 6, and the knob 15 has a through hole 15a that is large enough to fit a fingertip.

Therefore, if you insert your fingertip into the through hole 15a of this knob 15 and rotate the rotary tube 9 in the direction in which the sheet-like body 11 is rolled up, the sheet-like body 11 will be wound up and the drawer portion 4 will be drawn toward the main body and housed. be able to.

If the handle 4b of the drawer part 4 is grasped and pulled out with the knob 15 released, the sheet-like body 11 is unwound and can be freely drawn out within a predetermined range.

This sheet-like body 11 is guided on the side plate 5 through the lower end of the decorative frame 8 and the lower end of the stopper 7, and has a promenade or Designs of playgrounds, etc. are drawn, and in the case of urban areas, roads, shopping streets, etc. are drawn.

Furthermore, if you want to use it as a large hall, you can draw a pattern for the floor of the large hall.

Next, a method of using the present example, which has been barked as described above, will be explained.

First, remove the fastening pieces 3, 3, and attach one side plate 2 to the fold line 2a.
By folding each fold from 2b, it becomes 3 as shown in Figure 3.
A square roof is formed on a decorative frame 8.

At this time, the engaging piece 3 may be engaged and fixed on the side plate side opposite to the drawer part 4.

When the drawer part 4 is pulled out by grasping the handle 4b, the sheet-like body 11 is drawn out while rotating the rotary cylinder 9, and can be drawn out to a desired length.

In this state, the user can freely set the drawer length of the drawer part 4 and use the large expanded space, take out toy vehicles and other play equipment, and use the large space to play. The decorative frame 8, stopper 7, etc. may be fixedly arranged, but they may also be detachably made of bark.Furthermore, various equipment such as sandboxes, iron bars, etc. may be used depending on the intended conditions of the amusement park, city area, etc. A structure may also be adopted in which toys, models of various shops, etc. are housed in a housing-like toy, and the user is allowed to arrange them freely.

In the above embodiments, the structure is exemplified as a structure of a park or an amusement park, but it is of course possible to apply the present invention to various other structures such as a city area, a golf course, or a baseball field. Of course, the overall shape is not limited to just a quadrilateral shape, and various shapes such as a circle and a polygon can of course be adopted.

As is clear from the above explanation, according to the present invention, a part of the casing having the external shape of a building is made into a bark that can be freely pulled out via a sheet-like body that can be rolled up and unrolled. To provide a toy with excellent play effects due to its simple structure, which allows various structures, accessories, or play equipment to be deployed over a wide range without being limited to the area that can be shown by a casing. I can do it.
