Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] [Purpose of the invention] (Field of industrial application) This invention is designed to prevent a toy with a built-in radio control receiver from making sudden turns (so-called spin turns).
This invention relates to a transmitter for a radio-controlled toy equipped with a spin-turn switch that can transmit signals such as:

(Prior Art) Conventionally, in the case of a transmitter for a radio-controlled toy, for example, one stem mechanism is connected to a movable element of a variable resistor for steering operation, and the other stem mechanism is connected to a variable resistor for speed operation. The movable elements of the device are linked together, and by operating the respective stick mechanisms, the moving body toy with a built-in receiver can be turned in any direction (steering operation) and switched between forward and backward movement. They are constructed so that speed control, etc. can be performed freely.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, when trying to make a running toy make a rapid turning motion, so-called a spin turn, for example, it is necessary to suddenly tilt the stick mechanism on one side of the transmitter to either the left or right side. and the operation of rapidly tilting the other stick mechanism upward must be performed at the same time. For this reason, it is difficult for young children and the like to easily perform the spin-turn operation as described above.

[Structure of the invention] (Means for solving the problems) Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a transmitter that allows even young children to easily spin and turn a traveling toy. As means for achieving this, a steering operation circuit A having a steering operation variable resistor 4 and a speed operation circuit B having a speed operation variable resistor 6 are used.
In the transmitter S for a radio-controlled toy, which is provided with the operation section, a predetermined full-steering resistor 5 is provided in the steering control circuit A, and a predetermined full-speed resistor 7 is provided in the speed control circuit B. will be established. The variable resistor 4 for steering operation in the circuit A for steering operation and the resistor 5 for full steering are formed so as to be switched via one of the relays 2, and the switching in the circuit B for speed operation is performed. The variable resistor 6 for speed operation and the resistor 7 for full speed are formed so as to be switched through the other relay 3. Further, the relays 2 and 3 are configured to be operated simultaneously by a spin-turn switch 1 attached to an appropriate position of the transmitter S.

(Function) Therefore, in the present invention, when the spin turn switch 1 of the transmitter S is turned on, the relays 2 and 3 are activated, and in the steering operation circuit A, the steering operation variable resistor is activated. Switching from the resistor 4 to the full steering resistor 5 is performed,
A signal that causes the running toy to perform a full steering operation is transmitted from the transmitter S. Moreover, at the same time, in speed operation circuit B,
A signal is transmitted from the transmitter S so that the variable resistor 6 for speed operation is switched to the resistor 7 for full speed, and the traveling toy is operated at full speed. Then, the running toy that receives these signals performs a spin turn.

(Example) Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained with reference to illustrated examples.

In the figure, S indicates a steering operation circuit A having a steering operation variable resistor 4 and a speed operation circuit B having a speed operation variable resistor 6.
This is a transmitter for a radio-controlled toy that is equipped with a variable resistor 4 for steering operation.
The movable element of the speed control variable resistor 6 is connected to one of the stem mechanisms, and the movable element of the speed control variable resistor 6 is connected to the other stem mechanism. That is, when one of the steering mechanisms is operated to the left or right, the movable element of the variable resistor 4 for steering operation is operated, and the output of the steering operation circuit A in the operation section is changed.
A signal corresponding to this change is transmitted, and the steering angle of the traveling toy incorporating the receiver changes in accordance with the signal. Also, when the other stick mechanism is operated up and down, the speed control variable resistor 6
When the movable element is operated, the output of the speed operation circuit B in the operation section changes, a signal corresponding to this change is transmitted, and the forward and backward movement of the running toy and its speed change according to the signal. is configured to do so.

1 in the figure is a spin turn switch attached to the transmitter S. When this spin turn switch 1 is pressed to turn on, a set of relays 2 and 3 are activated.
are designed to operate simultaneously. Moreover, one relay 2 switches the steering operation variable resistor 4 of the steering operation circuit A to the full steering resistor 5 provided in the steering operation circuit A, and the other relay 3 switches the steering operation variable resistor 4 of the steering operation circuit A to the full steering resistor 5 provided in the steering operation circuit A. Switching is performed from the variable resistor 6 for speed operation in the circuit B for full speed operation to the resistor 7 for full speed provided in the circuit B for speed operation. In other words, the output of the steering operation circuit A in the operation section ranges from the output from the steering variable resistor 4, which is operated in conjunction with one of the steering mechanisms, to the preset output from the full steering resistor 5. The output of the speed control circuit B in the operating section is changed from the output of the speed control variable resistor 6 which is operated in conjunction with the other stem mechanism to the preset value of the full speed control resistor 7. The output can be switched to the current output.

By the way, the output of the steering operation circuit A by the full-steering resistor 5 is set so that the steering angle to the right or left of the running toy becomes approximately maximum, and the output by the full-speed resistor 7 is The output of speed control circuit B is
The speed is set so that the speed when the traveling toy moves forward or backward is approximately maximum, but these can be set freely as appropriate.

In the figure, 10 is an encoder section into which outputs from operation sections such as the steering operation circuit A and the speed operation circuit B are introduced, 11 is a modulation section, 12 is a high frequency section, and 13 is an antenna.

The spin-turn switch 1 itself may be of a push-button type, for example, which turns on when pressed and turns off when the press is released, or may have other configurations. Furthermore, the shape and the like can be freely set as appropriate without being limited to the illustrated example. Furthermore, the position of the spin-turn switch 1 on the transmitter S can be set at a position where it can be easily pressed. Furthermore, the transmitter S may be provided with a spin-turn switch 1 for clockwise rotation and a spin-turn switch 1 for counterclockwise rotation, respectively, and accordingly,
The configuration and number of relays 2 and 3, the configuration of steering operation circuit A, the number of full steering resistors 5,
The configuration of the speed operation circuit B, the number of full speed resistors 7, etc. can be freely set and changed as appropriate.

The present invention is constructed as described above, and then:
To explain its use, normally, the running toy is remotely controlled by operating a set of steering mechanisms (operating the movable elements of the steering variable resistor 4 and the speed controlling variable resistor 6, respectively). If you want the running toy to make a spin turn, press the spin turn switch 1.
When turned ON, relays 2 and 3 are activated, and at the same time, the variable resistor 4 for steering operation and the resistor 5 for full steering in steering operation circuit A are switched, and at the same time, the speed is changed in circuit B for speed operation. The operation variable resistor 6 and the full-speed resistor 7 are switched, and the output of the steering operation circuit A by the full-steering resistor 5 and the output of the speed operation circuit B by the full-speed resistor 7 are encoded. Transmitted from the antenna 13 via the modulation section 10, the modulation section 11, and the high frequency section 12, the moving toy that receives this will set its steering angle to the maximum to the right or left, and determine its speed in any direction, forward or backward. As approximately the maximum,
Perform a spin turn.

The transmitter S equipped with this spin-turn switch 1 can be used to control a running toy as appropriate, but it is particularly useful for controlling a running toy by colliding with an opponent's running toy and turning the opponent's running toy upside down. It will be suitable for competitions set up to be played.

Switching between the variable resistor 4 for steering operation and the resistor 5 for full steering in the steering operation circuit B, and switching between the variable resistor 6 for speed operation and the resistor 7 for full speed in the speed operation circuit B can be performed simultaneously. relays 2 and 3 are formed, and these relays 2 and 3 are
Since it is configured to be operated by a spin turn switch 1 attached to an appropriate position of the transmitter S,
Press spin turn switch 1 on transmitter S.
With a one-touch operation of turning it on, the transmitter S can reliably send a signal that allows the moving toy to spin and turn, regardless of the operating state of the stick mechanism, without the need for troublesome techniques.
