  • TOY TOP
    Publication number: 20180353867
    Abstract: A toy top includes a shaft portion, a body, and a first attacking member and a second attacking member that are disposed at different circumferential direction positions of the body. The first attacking member is movable between an inner first position and an outer second position in a radial direction. The second attacking member is movable between an inner third position and an outer fourth position in the radial direction. The first attacking member is biased toward the first position and is movable to the second position by centrifugal force. The second attacking member is restrained at the third position when the first attacking member is at the first position and is released from restraint to be moved to the fourth position when the first attacking member is at the second position.

  • TOY TOP
    Publication number: 20180339235
    Abstract: A toy top includes a body, a shaft portion, a movable component and a biasing member. The movable component includes at least a portion of the body and is movable upward and downward along the rotational axis of the toy top. The biasing member urges the movable component upward or downward. The movable component has a circumferential face that flares away from the biasing direction of the biasing member as the circumferential face recedes from the rotational axis. When the circumferential face collides with an opponent toy top, the movable component moves against a biasing force of the biasing member in a direction opposite to the biasing direction, and then the movable component is urged by resilience of the biasing member, so that the opponent toy top is moved in the biasing direction.

  • TOY TOP
    Publication number: 20180339236
    Abstract: A toy top includes a shaft portion and a body that includes a first body part which is rotatable relative to the shaft portion in response to an impact applied to the main component and a second body part which is rotatable relative to the first body part. First spaced extensions extend radially outward from a circumference of the first body. Second spaced extensions extend radially outward from a circumference of the second body. The second extensions stepwise vary their positions relative to the first extensions when the first body part rotates relative to the shaft portion. The second extensions move into the spaces between the first extensions when the first body part rotates relative to the second body part.
