Transforming toy having launcher
The present invention relates to a transforming toy and, particularly, to a multi-step transforming toy, wherein the toy transforms in a first step in a process of preparing for a launch and transforms in a second step in a process of lunching a traveling object, and the traveling object, which has passed through the transforming toy, also transforms. Therefore, the toy can arouse a child's interest and launch a predetermined shaped object such as a missile, a fist, or a baby dinosaur.
1. A transforming toy comprising:
a main body comprising a traveling object inlet formed on one side thereof and a traveling object outlet formed on the other side thereof;
transforming bodies releasably fastened to the main body;
locking parts to restrain the transforming bodies;
a transformation operating part disposed on a path in an interior of the main body, the path connecting the traveling object inlet and the traveling object outlet, and the transformation operating part being configured to release the locking parts from restraining the transforming bodies; and
a traveling object configured to be driven along the path,
wherein the transforming bodies are released to transform a form of the transforming toy into another form, in response to the traveling object contacting the transformation operating part, and
wherein the transformation operating part comprises:
a pair of rods rotatably disposed on both sides of the path and having push rods protruding from one side thereof,
an impact bar having both side end portions fastened to the pair of rods,
handles rotatably disposed on the main body and being configured to contact the push rods,
the locking parts being configured to rotate cooperatively with the handles and having locking bars to restrain the transforming bodies, and
the transformation operating part being further configured to release the transforming bodies through the displacement of the locking bars.
2. The transforming toy according to claim 1 , wherein the path comprises an inclined slope, or an inclined slope is disposed on one side of the path, the inclined slope being configured to drive the traveling object along the slope by means of gravity.
3. The transforming toy according to claim 2 , wherein the main body comprises a slope cover hinge-fastened thereto, and the slope cover contacts the slope so that the slope is extended, in response to the slope cover being open.
4. The transforming toy according to claim 1 , further comprising a launch tray disposed on the traveling object inlet to apply a thrust force to drive the traveling object to the interior of the main body.
5. The transforming toy according to claim 4 , wherein the launch tray is pushed by a user to apply the trust force to the traveling object seated thereon.
6. The transforming toy according to claim 1 , further comprising:
first transforming bodies releasably fastened to the main body;
locking parts to restrain the first transforming bodies; and
first transformation operating parts configured to release the locking parts from restraining the first transforming bodies,
wherein the first transforming bodies are released to transform a form of the transforming toy through manipulation of the first transformation operating parts.
7. The transforming toy according to claim 6 , wherein the first transforming bodies are doors disposed on the traveling object outlet of the main body, and the doors are released by the activation of the first transformation operating parts to open the traveling object outlet.
8. The transforming toy according to claim 6 , further comprising a launching part disposed on the main body to launch launching objects through the displacement of the first transformation operating parts.
9. The transforming toy according to claim 8 , wherein the launching part comprises:
launching holes formed on the main body;
firing pins disposed in the interiors of the launching holes in such a manner as to be elastically supported against springs; and
a locking part for restraining the firing pins in such a manner as to release the locking states of the firing pins through the displacement of the transformation operating part or the transforming bodies.
10. The transforming toy according to claim 1 , further comprising a transformation inducing item launching part disposed on the main body to launch a transformation inducing item through the displacement of the transformation operating part.
11. The transforming toy according to claim 10 , wherein the transformation inducing item launching part comprises:
an item launching hole formed on the main body;
a firing pin disposed in the item launching hole to be elastically supported against a spring; and
a locking part for restraining the firing pin in such a manner as to release the locking state of the firing pin through the displacement of the transformation operating part or the transforming bodies.
12. The transforming toy according to claim 10 , wherein at the moment when the traveling object comes into contact with the launched transformation inducing item, a locking part of the traveling object is released to allow the traveling object to transform into another form.
13. The transforming toy according to claim 12 , wherein the transformation inducing item has a magnetic material disposed in an interior thereof and the locking part of the traveling object has a magnet disposed on one side thereof, so that the magnet displaces the locking part of the traveling object through a magnetic force generated in response to the magnetic material of the transformation inducing item to release the locking state of the locking part of the traveling object.
14. The transforming toy according to claim 12 , wherein the locking part of the traveling object is displaced through a physical contact with the transformation inducing item and is released from the locking state.
15. The transforming toy according to claim 8 , wherein the main body has a plurality of loading boxes disposed thereon to store the launching objects, the traveling object, and a transformation inducing item.
