Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to a doll device.
  • existing doll technology connects the doll's trunk to its hands and feet through hinge shafts or joint components.
  • the doll's pose can only be changed by twisting or swinging its hands and feet, limiting the playfulness and market competitiveness.
  • some existing technologies connect the doll's trunk to its hands and feet using elastic ropes, but changing the doll's pose is also limited to twisting or swinging its limbs, leading to a lack of playfulness, thus necessitating a solution to this issue.
  • This invention overcomes the deficiencies of the above technologies by providing a novel doll device.
  • a doll device comprising a trunk body 1 and a head 2 arranged on it, wherein the trunk body 1 is connected to hand bodies 4 and/or foot bodies 5 through corresponding ropes 3, and the trunk body 1 is equipped with a self-resetting rope-tightening mechanism 6 that tightens the rope 3 during self-resetting.
  • the self-resetting rope-tightening mechanism 6 includes a button 60 that, when pressed, relaxes the rope 3.
  • the self-resetting rope-tightening mechanism 6 can rotate to retract and release the rope 3.
  • the hand body 4 when the trunk body 1 is connected to a hand body 4 through a corresponding rope 3, the hand body 4 includes several hand body segment monomers 41 for the rope 3 to pass through sequentially; and when the trunk body 1 is connected to a foot body 5 through a corresponding rope 3, the foot body 5 includes foot body segment monomers 51 for the rope 3 to pass through sequentially.
  • each hand body segment monomer 41 has a first inclined surface 411 for contact with adjacent hand body segment monomers 41, and the first inclined surface 411 is inclined relative to the extension direction of its hand body segment monomer 41; and/or each foot body segment monomer 51 has a second inclined surface 511 for contact with adjacent foot body segment monomers 51, and the second inclined surface 511 is inclined relative to the extension direction of its foot body segment monomer 51.
  • the head 2 includes a lower jaw 21 connected to the upper end of the trunk body 1, with the lower jaw 21 rotationally connected to an upper head body 22 capable of swinging up and down through a horizontal axis 20.
  • the upper end of the lower jaw 21 has a first concave cavity 211 facing the upper head body 22, and/or the lower end of the upper head body 22 has a second concave cavity 221 facing the lower jaw 21.
  • trunk body 1 is rotationally connected to the head 2 through a vertical axis 23.
  • the self-resetting rope-tightening mechanism 6 includes a rotary table 61 set within the trunk body 1 for connecting one end of the rope 3, a torsion spring 62 for driving the rotary table 61 to rotate and reset to tighten the rope 3, and a button 60 that can move axially closer to/away from the rotary table 61.
  • the rotary table 61 facing the button 60 is equipped with a first guiding slope 611
  • the button 60 facing the rotary table 61 is equipped with a second guiding slope 601 for gradually pressing the first guiding slope 611 when the button 60 is pressed, thus causing the rotary table 61 to rotate and relax the rope 3.
  • the front or back of the trunk body 1 is equipped with a guiding limiting through-hole 11, and a part of the button 60 protrudes outward through the guiding limiting through-hole 11.
  • the self-resetting rope-retracting mechanism can rotate to retract and release the rope, which is convenient for retracting longer ropes in limited space and for connecting and retracting several ropes simultaneously through the same mechanism.
  • the setup of the rotary table, the first guiding slope, the torsion spring, the button, and the second guiding slope in the self-resetting rope-retracting mechanism makes implementation convenient.
  • the rotary table rotates under the action of the torsion spring to reset and tighten the rope.
  • the rotary table presses against the second guiding slope of the button through the first guiding slope, causing the second guiding slope to move axially away from the rotary table and reset, facilitating the next press, making it highly practical.
  • a doll device comprising a trunk body 1 and a head 2 arranged on it, wherein the trunk body 1 is connected to hand bodies 4 and/or foot bodies 5 through corresponding ropes 3, and the trunk body 1 is equipped with a self-resetting rope-tightening mechanism 6 that tightens the rope 3 during self-resetting.
  • the self-resetting rope-tightening mechanism 6 includes a button 60 that, when pressed, relaxes the rope 3.
  • the self-resetting rope gathering mechanism 6 is arranged to tighten the rope 3 when self-resetting, so that the hand body 4/foot body 5 connected with the rope 3 is tightened to the trunk body 1 and is in a tight shape.
  • the button 60 of the self-resetting rope gathering mechanism 6 is arranged to make the self-resetting rope gathering mechanism 6 relax the rope 3 when pressing the button 60. In this way, the hand body 4/foot body 5 connected with the rope 3 can be far away from the trunk body 1 under the action of its own gravity or external force and is in a loose shape. In this way, the shape of the doll device can be switched by pressing the button 60 again and again. Its play fun is good, which is conducive to improving the market competitiveness.
  • the self-resetting rope gathering mechanism 6 can rotate and retractable the rope 3. On the one hand, it is convenient to rotate and retractable a long rope 3 in a limited space. On the other hand, it is convenient to connect and rotate and retractable several ropes 3 through the same self-resetting rope gathering mechanism 6.
  • the hand body 4 when the trunk body 1 is connected to a hand body 4 through a corresponding rope 3, the hand body 4 includes several hand body segment monomers 41 for the rope 3 to pass through sequentially; and when the trunk body 1 is connected to a foot body 5 through a corresponding rope 3, the foot body 5 includes foot body segment monomers 51 for the rope 3 to pass through sequentially.
  • the setting of a plurality of the hand body segment monomers 41 of the hand body 4 in this case is convenient for the loose state between the hand body segment monomers 41 when the self-resetting rope gathering mechanism 6 relaxes the rope 3
  • the setting of a plurality of the foot body segment monomers 51 of the foot body 5 is convenient for the loose state between the foot body segment monomers 51 when the self-resetting rope gathering mechanism 6 relaxes the rope 3, and the play fun is better.
  • each hand body segment monomer 41 has a first inclined surface 411 for contact with adjacent hand body segment monomers 41, and the first inclined surface 411 is inclined relative to the extension direction of its hand body segment monomer 41, As shown in FIG. 5 ;
  • each foot body segment monomer 51 has a second inclined surface 511 for contact with adjacent foot body segment monomers 51, and the second inclined surface 511 is inclined relative to the extension direction of its foot body segment monomer 51, as shown in FIG. 5 , which can facilitate the change of the shape of the foot body 5.
  • the head 2 includes a lower jaw 21 connected to the upper end of the trunk body 1, with the lower jaw 21 rotationally connected to an upper head body 22 capable of swinging up and down through a horizontal axis 20, which is beneficial to increase playfulness.
  • the upper end of the lower jaw 21 has a first concave cavity 211 facing the upper head body 22, and/or the lower end of the upper head body 22 has a second concave cavity 221 facing the lower jaw 21, which is beneficial to the display of oral morphology.
  • the self-resetting rope-tightening mechanism 6 includes a rotary table 61 set within the trunk body 1 for connecting one end of the rope 3, a torsion spring 62 for driving the rotary table 61 to rotate and reset to tighten the rope 3, and a button 60 that can move axially closer to/away from the rotary table 61.
  • the rotary table 61 facing the button 60 is equipped with a first guiding slope 611
  • the button 60 facing the rotary table 61 is equipped with a second guiding slope 601 for gradually pressing the first guiding slope 611 when the button 60 is pressed, thus causing the rotary table 61 to rotate and relax the rope 3.
  • the self-reset rope collection mechanism 6 is provided with a rotary table 61, a first guide slope 611, a torsion spring 62, a button 60, and a second guide slope 601.
  • the implementation is convenient. After releasing the button 60, under the action of the torsion spring 62, the rotary table 61 rotates to reset and tighten the rope 3, and the rotary table 61 rotates to press the second guide slope 601 of the button 60 through the first guide slope 611, so that the second guide slope 601 is axially away from the rotary table 61 and resets, so as to facilitate the next press, and has good practicability.
  • this case protects a novel doll device and puppet. All technical solutions that are the same or similar to this case should be considered to fall within the scope of protection of this case.
