  • Publication number: 20180021687
    Abstract: A transformable toy 10 includes: an annular member 11 which is formed out of an elastic material so as to be able to be turned inside out; and constituent members 20, 21, 22 and 23 which are attached to the annular member 11; wherein: the constituent members 20, 21, 22 and 23 include protruding portions 20a, 20b, 21a, 21b, 22a, 22b, 23a and 23b which protrude outward from at least one of a front side 11a and a back side 11b of the annular member 11. Thus, it is possible to provide a transformable toy which can avoid a problem of the manufacturing cost or a problem that techniques may be required for operation and whose form can be changed largely.

  • Patent number: 9415322
    Abstract: A combinable transformable toy is provided with a doll body and a mounting body which can be externally mounted on the doll body. The mounting body is provided with a base portion in which an insertion port is opened, a movement portion which is provided to be movable relatively to the base portion, and transformation portions which are coupled to the movement portion. When a head portion of the doll body is inserted from the insertion port, the movement portion is pushed by the doll body to move together with the doll body so that the transformation portions can be transformed in conjunction with the movement of the movement portion. Thus when a mounting body is attached to a doll body, the doll body can change in appearance and the mounting body can be transformed in conjunction with the attachment operation.

  • Patent number: 6814646
    Abstract: A floating toy is provided which can achieve varied and entertaining movements by means of a simple composition. The floating toy comprises: a liquid container section (11, 12) containing liquid therein; a figure (2) of lower specific gravity than the liquid, accommodated inside the liquid container section; magnetic bodies (31, 32) accommodated movably inside the liquid container section; line members (41, 42) extended between the figure and the magnetic bodies; and electromagnetic mechanisms (51, 52) that act on the magnetic bodies. The magnetic bodies and the figure are caused to move against the buoyancy force of the figure, by passing current through the electromagnetic mechanisms, and are caused to return to their original positions by the buoyancy force of the figure, by releasing the passage of current through the electromagnetic mechanisms.
