Abstract: A sounding device a normal speaker being configured to output a first sound, a bone conduction speaker being configured to output a second sound, a storage unit being configured to store first and second data corresponding to the first and second sounds respectively, and an output control unit being configured to control outputting the first sound from the normal speaker and the second sound from the bone conduction speaker. The first sound is of talking. The second sound is of a pet. The output control unit is configured to control the bone conduction speaker to output the first sound, and to control the normal speaker to output the second sound.

Abstract: A top launching device for launching a top includes a device body and an operating belt. The device body includes first and second input rotors to rotate, an output rotor configured to hold the top in a state with a central axis of the output rotor aligned with a central axis of the top and configured to rotate and impart the rotational force to the top, and a coupling rotor configured to transmit the rotational force from the input rotor to the output rotor. The operating belt is configured to be inserted in the device body, and to be engaged with either the first or the second input rotor. The output rotor is configured to rotate the top, impart the rotational force to the top, and release the top. The operating belt is configured to be selectively engaged with one of the first and second input rotors.

Abstract: A top toy includes a first shaft side component and a trunk part. The trunk part includes a trunk body, a moving body being rotatably configured with respect to the trunk body, and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism is configured to lock releasably the moving member at a first position. The first shaft side component is rotatably configured with respect to the trunk part between first and second rotation positions. The trunk part is rotatably configured with respect to the first shaft side component when an external force is applied to the trunk part. The first shaft side component includes is a first projecting part. When the first projecting part is in contact with the locking mechanism, the locking mechanism is configured to release the moving member from the first position. The first and second shaft side components are interchangeable.

Abstract: A top toy is used in a game table including a guide member having a guide surface on which first teeth are formed at an equal interval. The top toy includes a shaft part, a body being configured on the shaft, and a trunk part being configured on the shaft. The shaft includes second teeth that are engageable with the first teeth on an outer periphery thereof.

Abstract: A battling stadium game apparatus and methods for toy tops providing multiple play level surfaces which may include platform inserts to actively direct interactions of spinning tops across multiple play level surfaces, a base, concave areas at a first play level surface at the base, concave areas with battling surfaces at the first play level. The battling surface includes a middle area and a periphery area surrounding the middle area, an overdrive surface disposed at a second play level surface at the base, the overdrive surface is at a level elevated from the concave arena. A lid nests within the base and defines an exterior wall around the perimeter of the base, with a third level platform element between the base and the lid for a third play level surface.

Abstract: A top toy includes a shaft part, a trunk part, and a top tip cover. The trunk part is detachably configured on the shaft part. The top tip cover is detachably configured on the shaft part at a longitudinal end. The shaft part includes a first engagement part being movably configured between a raised position and a lowered position in an axial direction and a second engagement part. The top tip includes a third engagement part being configured to be engaged by rotating in a first direction with the second engagement part to prevent the shaft part from separating from the trunk part in the axial direction. The top tip cover includes a fourth engagement part being configured to be engaged with the first engagement part to prevent the top tip cover from rotating in a second direction with respect to the shaft part.
