Flexible toy

Abstract

A flexible toys comprises mainly a flexible main body provided with a holding portion extending from the top of the flexible main body, and engaged with at least one swing part on the middle section thereof; wherein said flexible swing part is provided with several flexible bars; the flexible main body and the flexible swing part can be designed to have different colors. As the operator holds the holding portion on the top of the flexible main body, said flexible main body is in a stretched state, whereby as the operator rotates the flexible main body to the right, the flexible main body becomes twisted. Upon releasing the flexible main body, the flexible main body will turn quickly to the left, thereby cause the fling of the flexible bars of the flexible swing part. As the flexible main body rotates left to a certain extent, the flexible main body becomes twisted and then turns to the right again. Under such constant rotation to right and left, the fling of the main body and swing part can persist. During the course of the fling, a lurid color could be presented due to the color difference between the flexible main body and the flexible and the purpose of amusement can be achieved.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The invention relates to a flexible toy, and in particular, to a flexible toy characterized in that, through the flexible attribute of TPR material, its flexible main body and flexible swing parts thereon can be turned right or left constantly to achieve the purpose of toying interest.

2. Description of the Prior Art

The configuration and type of conventional rubber-type toys can be said to be extremely diverse that the producer can make a toy into any configuration according to the requirement itself enabling one enjoy a completely new visual organoleptic effect. Further, since rubber exhibits tenacity, the user can stretch and knead arbitrarily to change the form and the changed form can be restored to the original configuration due to the flexibility of the rubber, so that one can toy with it repeatedly without damage it. However, conventional rubber toys can only change over their configurations without any new idea. Thus, in order to impart a rubber toy much amusement, there has been developed rubber toys with stickiness with which the user can throw the rubber toy of diverse configuration to adhere any place and hence increase the amusement of those rubber toys. Although rubber toys exhibit already stickiness and flexibility, their configurations concentrate still on a planar type. Further, the playing mode of a conventional rubber toy is fixed without any novel idea.

Accordingly, the conventional product has many defects, is not a perfect design, and need to be improved.

In view of the various disadvantages derived from the above-described conventional toys, the inventor had devoted to improve and innovate it, and finally, after studying intensively for many years, has developed successfully the inventive flexibly toy.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

One object of the invention is to provide a flexible toy characterized in that it flexible main body can be made into a man-like configuration, and its flexible swing parts can be made into a hem of a clothe such that as the flexible main body swing left and right, the toy can behave as dancing happily like a dancer.

Another object of the invention is to provide a flexible toy characterized in that it can be played simply with relatively much amusement.

Yet another object of the invention is to provide a flexible toy characterized in that its flexible main body and flexible swing parts can be made to have various colors such that as it spins, a different visual organoleptic effect can be achieved.

Flexible toys that can achieve the above-mentioned objects of the invention comprises a flexible main body and at least one flexible swing parts, wherein said flexible main body and said flexible swing parts can be of different colors; wherein said flexible main body is provided with a holding portion by extending from the top of the flexible main body, and an engaging slot around its middle section; wherein said swing parts is provided with holes thereon and several flexible bars extended therefrom; said holes are to be engaged in the engaging slot on the flexible main body such that said flexible bars can hang spontaneously and contact with said flexible main body; when the operator holds the holding portion on the top of the flexible main body, the flexible main body will be in a stretched state, and as the operator rotates continuously the flexible main body to the right side, the flexible main body becomes a twisted state effected by the flexible attribute of the flexible main body, thereby a resiliency is generated therein. Once the resiliency of the flexible main body is liberated, the flexible main body will rotate quickly to the left side and this rotation will cause the fling of the flexible bars on the flexible swing part, whereupon the flexible main body rotates to a certain extent, the flexible main body will twist again to the right side, whereby, under such constant rotation to right and left, the fling of the main body and swing part can persist. During the course of the fling, a lurid color could be presented due to the color difference between the flexible main body and the flexible and the purpose of amusement can be achieved.

These features and advantages of the present invention will be fully understood and appreciated from the following detailed description of the accompanying Drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

Referring to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, a flexible toy provided according to the invention comprises:

a flexible main body 1, made of thermo plastic rubber (TPR) material that imparts the flexible main body 1 a flexibility; wherein said flexible main body 1 is provided with a holding portion 11 extending from the top thereof, and an engaging slot 12 on the middle section thereof; and wherein said flexible main body 1 can be designed as a man-like configuration;

at least a flexible swing part 2, made of TPR material that imparts the flexible swing part 2 a flexibility; wherein said flexible swing part 2 is provided with a hole 21 on the middle section thereof, and with several flexible bars 22 extending from the periphery of said hole 21; wherein said flexible swing part 2 can be made into clothe or hem-like configuration and said more flexible swing parts 2 can have same or different colors;

wherein said hole 21 on said flexible swing part 2 can be fixed in the engaging slot 12 on said flexible main body 1 in a manner that said flexible main body 1 can engage several flexible swing parts 2 at the same time and said flexible bar 22 of said flexible swing part 2 can hang spontaneously and contact with said flexible main body; if said flexible main body 1 is of a girl configuration, said flexible swing part 2 becomes a hem of a girl dress; and wherein said flexible main body 1 and flexible swing part 2 can have same or different colors to increase the visual organoleptic effect.

Referring to FIG. 4, a schematic view showing the practice of the flexible toy according to the invention, to toy with the flexible toy, an operator holds the holding portion 11 of the flexible main body 1 with his hand 3 in a manner that the flexible main part 1 becomes in a stretched state. Thereafter, if the operator turns the flexible main body 1 to the right side continuously, said flexible main body 1 will be twisted owing to its flexibility and generates a resiliency therein. Then, as the resiliency of said flexible main body 1 is liberated, the hand 3 of the operator need no longer turn the flexible main body 1, and the flexible main body 1 will rotate to the left side quickly, thereby causes the fling of the flexible bars 22 of the flexible swing part 2. As the flexible main body 1 rotates left to a certain extent, it will become twisted, and a resiliency will be generated therein to cause the flexible main body 1 turning right again. Under these constant rotation right and left, the fling of the flexible main body 1 and the flexible swing part 2 will persist. Furthermore, through the color difference between the flexible main body 1 and the flexible swing part 2, another lurid color could present from the fling in the course of the rotation like a dancing girl, and give relatively funny amusement.

The flexible toy provided according to the invention has following advantages over other conventional techniques:

1. The flexible main body of the flexible toy according to the invention can be designed as a man-like configuration, and the flexible swing part can be made into a hem of man's dress, such that, as the flexible main body turn left and right, it will dance happily like a dancer.

2. The flexible main body and the flexible swing part of the flexible toy according to the invention can be designed in different colors such that, as the flexible toy rotates, a quite different visual organoleptic effect obtained can increase relatively much amusement.

Many changes and modifications in the above-described embodiment of the invention can, of course, be carried out without departing from the scope thereof. Accordingly, to promote the progress in science and the useful arts, the invention is disclosed and is intended to be limited only by the scope of the appended claims.
