Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a mirror toy that allows you to view an object image by inverting or inverting it.
Image mirrors (tentative name) are placed symmetrically above and below the intermediate block to replace the plate mirrors used to change the path of the rays from the object image, and light ray entrances from the object image are formed on both sides of the intermediate block. Then, an object image is projected onto either the upper or lower image mirror.

The present invention has already been proposed (Utility Model Publication No. 58-163296), in which a reflecting mirror is provided on the long side of an isosceles triangular block to reflect and refract light from the hypotenuse surface. provides a mirror toy that can be combined with the reflecting mirror block or used independently, and the object image reflected on the image mirror can be reversed by simply replacing the plate mirror without changing the position of the image mirror. It is something that makes you come out.

In the figure, 1 is a plastic molded main body, 2 is an intermediate block part, 3 and 4 are its left and right sides, 5 and 6
are the upper and lower window blocks.

Reference numerals 7 and 8 designate plate mirror insertion openings formed on the surface of the intermediate block, which cross each other orthogonally to form an X-shape.

9 is a guide provided protruding from the lower surface.

On the sides of the intermediate block, there are light entrance ports 10,
11 is open. This entrance aperture is preferably formed as a pivoting coupling 11a which can engage a reflective block.

12, 13 are window holes, 14, 15 are 12, 13
and an image reflecting mirror each mounted at an angle of 45° to the intermediate block.

20 is a plate mirror, and a plane mirror 22 is attached to the plane of a substantially square frame 21. 23 is a knob. Since the plate mirror 20 can be freely inserted into the insertion opening of the intermediate block portion in any direction, a total of four changes can be obtained when the orientation of the mirror 22 is considered.

In FIG. 1, since the plate mirror is inserted into the insertion port 8, only the light from the left entrance port 10 is projected onto the image mirror 14.

Furthermore, if the direction of the mirror surface 22 is reversed at the same insertion port 8, the light from the right entrance port 11 is projected onto the image mirror 15.

Further, regarding the insertion port 7, the above-mentioned images appear inverted.

By rotatably connecting reflection blocks as shown in FIG. 5 to the left and right entrance ports 10 or 11 of the intermediate block, the entire optical path is refracted in a complicated manner, and this can be used to change the direction of the image. You can also create directional puzzles. 16 is an optical path indicating line displayed on the block.

The one in Figure 4 is a mirror toy constructed in two series, and in the mirror arrangement shown in the figure, the light beam from the objective mirror A travels as shown by the arrow and reaches the image mirror C.
guided by.

In this case, when the plate mirror 20a is released, an inverted image of the object facing the mirror A is reflected on the mirror D, and the image on the mirror C becomes invisible.

As described above, the present product allows various image changes to be obtained by replacing or inserting/removing the plate mirror, allowing the user to learn about the straight travel and reflection of light rays, and is also effective for training in three-dimensional perception.

Claims (1)

[Claims for Utility Model Registration] (1) An intermediate block portion in which an X-shaped mirror insertion opening that intersects perpendicularly to the surface is formed, and light beam entrance holes are opened on both left and right sides of the intermediate block portion, respectively. At the same time, window holes are formed on the upper and lower surfaces of the block, and window holes are formed opposite to the center of the window hole and the center of the intermediate block portion, respectively.
A mirror toy characterized in that a video mirror tilted at 45° is provided, and a plate mirror can be replaced in the X-shaped insertion opening. (2) The mirror toy according to item 1 above, wherein a reflective block with an inclined mirror that can be rotated in 90° increments is connected to the entrance. (3) The mirror toy according to item 1 above, wherein the intermediate block portion and the upper and lower image mirrors are respectively arranged in pairs on the left and right sides.
