Identification carrier for a toy for reproducing music or an audio story

1. An identification carrier for placement on a toy configured for replaying music or a spoken story, comprising:

a standing surface,

a magnet positioned to adhere the standing surface of the identification carrier to a placement surface of the toy, and

an identification, wherein the identification changes a property of an external magnetic field acting in a region of the toy when the identification enters the external magnetic field to cause a speaker on the toy to play the music or the spoken story;

wherein the identification carrier has an external shape comprising one of a human or animal figure that has two or more feet comprising the standing surface; and

wherein the magnet is positioned within the identification carrier such that at least one line extending perpendicular to the standing surface from a point on the standing surface passes through the identification but not through the magnet.

2. The identification carrier according to claim 1 , characterized in that the standing surface is composed of a plurality of partial surfaces that are not interconnected.

3. The identification carrier according to claim 1 , wherein the identification comprises an RFID transponder.

4. The identification carrier according to claim 1 , characterized in that the magnet is a disk magnet or a rod magnet.

5. The identification carrier according to claim 1 , characterized by an external shape in the form of a figure.

6. An identification carrier for a toy for replaying music or a spoken story, comprising:

a body comprising at least one first part and one second part, wherein the body comprises a form corresponding to a particular person, a particular type of person, a fantasy figure, or a type of animal;

a magnet arranged within the body to adhere a standing surface of the identification carrier to a placement surface of the toy; and

an identification arranged within the body corresponding to the particular person, the particular type of person, the fantasy figure, or the type of animal represented by the form of the body, wherein the identification is configured to trigger the replay of music or a spoken story associated with the form of the body;

wherein the first part of the body includes an interior recess extending from a top of the first part towards a bottom of the first part;

wherein the identification is arranged at a bottom of the interior recess of the first part of the body; and

wherein the magnet is arranged within the body closer to the standing surface of the identification carrier than the identification.

7. The identification carrier according to claim 6 , wherein the magnet is arranged in the first part of the body.

8. A system composed of:

(a) an identification carrier for a toy for replaying music or a spoken story, comprising:

a body comprising at least one first part and one second part, wherein the body comprises a form corresponding to a particular person, a particular type of person, a fantasy figure, or a type of animal;

a standing surface,

a magnet, and

an identification, wherein the identification changes a property of an external magnetic field acting in a region of the toy when it enters the external magnetic field, wherein the magnet is positioned closer than the identification to the standing surface, wherein the identification corresponds to the particular person, the particular type of person, the fantasy figure, or the type of animal represented by the form of the body, and wherein the identification is configured to trigger the replay of music or a spoken story associated with the form of the body;

wherein the first part of the body includes an interior recess extending from a top of the first part towards a bottom of the first part, and

wherein the identification is arranged at a bottom of the interior recess of the first part of the body; and

(b) a toy for replaying music or a spoken story, comprising:

a loudspeaker or a loudspeaker connection,

a sensor, which is able to detect, within a region of its surroundings, a property or a change in a property of a magnetic field acting in the region of its surroundings caused by the identification entering the region,

a placement surface configured to receive the standing surface of the identification carrier, and

a control unit, which can drive the loudspeaker or the loudspeaker connection to replay music or a spoken story when the sensor detects, within the region of the placement surface, a specific property or a specific change in a property of the magnetic field acting in the region of the sensor,

wherein, when the identification carrier is standing with its standing surface on the placement surface, the magnet is positioned within the identification carrier such that at least one line extending perpendicularly from a point on the standing surface through the identification passes through the sensor but not through the magnet.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the magnet is positioned to adhere the standing surface of the identification carrier to the placement surface of the toy.

10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the second part of the body comprises a projection configured to engage the interior recess of the first part of the body;

wherein the projection and the interior recess are configured such that an end of the projection contacts the identification arranged in the bottom of the recess when the first part and the second part are connected to prevent movement of the identification in the interior recess.

11. The identification carrier according to claim 6 , wherein the second part of the body comprises a projection configured to engage the interior recess of the first part of the body.

12. The identification carrier according to claim 11 , wherein the projection and the interior recess are configured such that an end of the projection contacts the identification arranged in the bottom of the recess when the first part and the second part are connected to prevent movement of the identification in the interior recess.

13. The identification carrier according to claim 11 , wherein the projection is configured to engage the interior recess of the first part of the body by one of a force-fit connection or a frictional connection.

14. The identification carrier according to claim 11 , wherein the interior recess comprises a uniform cross-section.

15. An identification carrier for placement on a toy configured for replaying music or a spoken story, comprising:

a standing surface configured to be placed on a placement surface of the toy,

a magnet, and

an identification, wherein the identification changes a property of an external magnetic field acting in a region of the toy when the identification enters the external magnetic field to cause a speaker on the toy to play the music or the spoken story,

wherein at least one line extending perpendicular to the standing surface from a point on the standing surface passes only through one of the magnet or the identification; and

wherein the identification carrier has an external shape comprising one of a human figure or an animal figure that includes two or more feet comprising the standing surface.
