[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The human brain has a right brain and a left brain, which have different functions. In other words, the right brain has a visual, intuitive, and creative intuition that grasps things with an intuition such as cans and fluttering, and has the function of grasping the whole from a broad perspective, and the left brain has linguistic, logical, and analytical features. Manipulates words, subdivides complicated matters into simple elements, and acts to think in an orderly and rational manner. Therefore, the training method is completely different between the right brain and the left brain. by the way,
Regarding lack of basic technology development ability and creativity of Japanese people,
There is international criticism from developed countries. Generally, the right brain develops from 0 to 3 years old, and the left brain gradually develops from 3 years old and hardens at 6 years old. As mentioned above, the right brain has the function of improving creativity, and this ability is 0 to 3 years old.
It depends on the training of a young child in his childhood. In order to train the ability of the right brain, it is necessary to improve the ability of ESP such as telepathy, see-through ability, and resolution ability, the ability of intuition, the intuition of numbers, the intuition of absolute pitch, the intuition of intuition of language Is. Although there are various concrete training methods for this purpose, a method of quickly finding the same object as the displayed object is extremely effective as right brain training for an infant. On the other hand, in the case of an infant, it is extremely important that the training is carried out while playing, and it is most desirable and effective to carry out the brain training naturally while having fun with the mother and child.

The present invention was devised in view of the above circumstances, and mothers and children can play together and naturally train the brain, especially the right brain, according to the ability of the child while making the child interested. At the same time, it is an object of the present invention to provide an easy-to-handle and safe onadinodore.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an apparatus body for selectively displaying one or more kinds of colors, patterns and arbitrary patterns preferred by infants from a window. The onazino dore is characterized by having a separate identification card which is the same as the color, pattern and pattern displayed on the window. Further, as a specific configuration, the apparatus body includes a case body having the window formed on the front surface side, a window lid that is fitted around the window and closes a part of the window, and is pivotally supported in the case body. A rotating drum that displays the color, pattern, and pattern on the outer periphery and arranges a part of them to face the window side, a push button elastically supported on the front surface side of the case body, and a push button of the push button. Characterized by an onaginodore consisting of a transmission mechanism that transmits movement to the rotation of the rotary drum, further, with a bell inside the case body,
The present invention is characterized by an onagi nodore which is provided with a tapping member on the push button side capable of abuttingly engaging with the bell.

[0006]

[Function] When the infant or mother pushes the push button, the rotary drum rotates in response to the pushing method, and the color, pattern, or pattern is displayed from the window. By engaging the window cover, it is possible to display only one type or a plurality of types at the same time. On the other hand, since the identification card at hand has the same color, pattern, and design displayed on the window, the mother and child search for the one that matches the one displayed on the window. Right brain training is naturally performed by the infant searching for the identification card that is the same as the one displayed on the window, and the card can be searched while having fun depending on how the mother guides. Also,
The color, pattern, etc. displayed from the window depending on how the push button is pressed
The content of the design is different and it is more intriguing. Also, by attaching a bell inside the case body, a bell noise is generated in synchronization with the pressing operation of the push button, which further attracts the interest of the infant.

For example, in the illustration, faces of bears, lions, and elephants are displayed. The window 5 of the apparatus main body 1 of FIG. 1 displays the faces of dogs, lions, and elephants, so this display and the display content of the identification card 9 of FIG. 2 are different, but the same identification card 9 is different. Exists.

When the infant presses the push button 6 and a combination of animal symbols as shown in the figure is displayed on the window 5, the same item is searched from the identification cards 9 at hand while looking at it. In this case, it is sometimes necessary for the mother to guide the infant and assist in the search, and the communication of the mother and child is obtained. It is also necessary to adjust the number of displays on the window 5 with the window cover 7 according to the age and ability of the infant. In this embodiment, as the color identification cards 9, nine different color cards of one kind, eighteen combination cards of two kinds of colors and twenty seven combination cards of three kinds of colors are prepared. As an example, 9 cards of one type of animal, 18 cards of 2 types of cards and 27 cards of 3 types of cards are prepared as an example. By searching for the same content displayed on the window 5 among many identification cards 9 in cooperation with the mother and child, the brain (right brain) is naturally trained while having fun. Note that the design is not limited to animal faces, and various designs such as vehicles, plants, fish, birds, and popular animations are adopted.

Next, the internal structure of the apparatus main body 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 3 shows the rear case body 3 and the bottom plate 4.
Is shown and the front case body 2 is viewed from the back side. The main components are mainly attached to the front case body 2 side. As shown in FIG. 5, the rotary drum 10 is formed of a cylindrical body, and in the present embodiment, it is formed of three units that respectively face the three windows 5. Each rotary drum 10 is pivotally supported by the support shaft 11 on the front case body 2 side. A pinion gear 12 is integrally formed on one side surface of the rotary drum 10. As shown in FIG. 5, colors, patterns, and symbols are displayed on the outer periphery of the rotary drum 10 at substantially equal intervals. In this embodiment, every other color and animal pattern are arranged. Further, in the present embodiment, the circumference length obtained by combining one color and one animal pattern corresponds to the dimension in the longitudinal direction of the window 5, and the window cover 7 has a size that closes one of them. It consists of

As shown in FIG. 2, the push button 6 is supported by the front case body 2 by the guide shaft 13 and the guide 14 so as to be able to move up and down smoothly in the vertical direction. The pressing plate 15 is integrally formed to project. Further, it is elastically supported by the spring 16.

Next, the transmission mechanism section 17 will be briefly described.
Three lever-shaped members 18 are arranged in this embodiment to engage with the respective rotary drums 10. The lever-shaped member 18 has a rack portion 1 on the front end side thereof that can be meshed with the pinion gear 12.
9 is formed. Support rods 20 are fitted to the base ends of all the lever-shaped members 18, and both ends of the support rods 20 are pivotally supported on the front case body 2 side. An arm portion 21 is integrally connected to the lever-shaped member 18 arranged in the center. The end portion of the arm portion 21 is elastically supported by the spring 22 on the front case body 2 side. Further, the pressing plate 15 of the push button intersects and abuts on the inner wall side of the arm portion 21. Therefore, when the push button 6 is pushed downward in FIG. 4, the lever-shaped member 18 rotates clockwise around the support rod 20 via the arm portion 21, the rack portion 19 meshes with the pinion gear 12, and the rotary drum 10 rotates. Let Since the support rod 20 is fitted in the lever-shaped member 18, when the central lever-shaped member 18 rotates, the left and right lever-shaped members 18, 18 also rotate via the support rod 20, and the respective rotary drums are rotated. Rotate 10,10.

As shown in FIG. 3, FIG. 4 and FIG. 6, the base end side of the spring 24 is fixed to the upper end of the pillar portion 23 standing upright on the pressing plate 15 of the push button 6, and the tip end thereof is fixed. The tapping member 25 is fixed. The restraint member 26 fixed inside the front case body 2 is arranged at a position where the tapping member 25 engages when the push button 6 is pushed downward. Further, a bell 27 is fixedly provided on the front case body 2 side below the tapping member 25.

Next, the operation of the apparatus body 1 will be described. When the push button 6 is pressed downward with an appropriate force, the push button 6 is lowered against the spring force of the spring 16 by an amount corresponding to the pressing force. When the pressing plate 15 descends, the lever-shaped member 1

Rotate. Here, when the hand is released from the push button 6, the lever-shaped member 18 and the like return, and one of the colors and animal symbols displayed on the surface of the rotating drum 10 appears in the window 5. In this embodiment, in order to accurately represent a set of colors and animal patterns in the window 5, the protrusion 2 is provided on the tip side of the lever-shaped member 18.
8 and the pinion gear 12 side is provided with a locking portion 29 to adjust the contact position between the two.

As shown in FIG. 6, when the push button 6 is lowered, the column portion 23 connects the descending column portion 23 with the spring 24.
However, the tapping member 25 fixed to the tip side of the spring 24 cannot move downward until it is caught by the retaining member 26 and the spring 24 is largely deformed. Therefore, when the tapping member 25 is detached from the restraint member 26, the tapping member 25 collides with the bell 27 due to the restoring force of the spring 24, and a light timbre sound is produced. Infants prefer this light metallic sound, which makes it even more entertaining, and at the same time the pronunciation clearly indicates a break in the game.

As described above, the infant is interested in pressing the push button 6 to display any color, pattern, etc. on the window 5, and is enthusiastic about the game, and at the same time, the identification card that matches the displayed color and pattern. I feel the joy of finding 9 while being helped by my mother or by searching for it myself. This allows the brain, especially the right brain, to be naturally and reliably trained.

In the above description, the number of the rotary drums 10 is three and the size of the window 5 is as shown in the figure, but it is not limited to this. Further, as described above, the design is not limited to animals. Further, the structure and sound generation structure of the transmission mechanism section 17 are only one example. Further, the window cover 7 may be removed in some cases, and as described above, it may be of a type in which a plurality of windows 5 are not closed at the same time but selectively closed one by one. Further, the present invention is applied to various uses within the technical scope without departing from the spirit thereof.
