Spinning top launching device
The spinning top launching device includes a rotary drive mechanism being configured to be rotated by the operation member and configured to apply rotary force to the spinning top, a rotation speed detection mechanism including a centrifugal clutch mechanism being configured to be rotated by the operation member, and an operation body being engaged with an output side of the centrifugal clutch mechanism to be moved in a first direction from a predetermined position. The operation body includes an indication part configured to indicate the rotation speed.
1. A spinning top launching device for spinning a spinning top, comprising:
an operation member;
a rotary drive mechanism being configured to apply rotary force to the spinning top by a user operating the operation member; and
a rotation speed detection mechanism including a centrifugal clutch mechanism being configured to be rotated by the operation member, and
an operation body being engaged with an output side of the centrifugal clutch mechanism to be moved in a first direction from a predetermined position
the operation body including an indication part configured to indicate the rotation speed.
2. The spinning top launching device according to claim 1 , wherein the operation body is rotatable.
3. The spinning top launching device according to claim 1 , wherein
the rotation speed detection mechanism includes
a ratchet mechanism being engaged with the operation body to allow the operation body in rotating in the first direction and to prevent the operation body from rotating in a second direction opposite to the first direction,
a urging member configured to urge the operation body toward the predetermined position while moving the operation body in the first direction, and
a reset mechanism being configured to allow the operation body in rotating in the second direction by releasing the rachet mechanism.
4. The spinning top launching device according to claim 1 , further comprising
a device in which the rotary drive mechanism, the rotation speed detection mechanism, and the operation body are accommodated,
first, second, and third input gears, and
first and second belt insertion paths, wherein
the operation member is a rack belt,
the first input gear constitutes a part of the rotary drive mechanism and is configured to mesh with a rack of the rack belt,
on a first side of the first input gear, the first belt insertion path to which the first input gear faces is formed,
on a second side of the first input gear, the second belt insertion path to which the first input gear faces is formed,
the first belt insertion path is for spinning the spinning top in the first direction,
the second belt insertion path is for spinning the spinning top in the second direction,
the second input gear constitutes a part of the rotation speed detection mechanism, is configured to mesh meshes with the rack of the rack belt inserted in the first belt insertion path, and is connected with the centrifugal clutch mechanism,
the third input gear constitutes a part of the rotation speed detection mechanism, is configured to mesh with the rack of the rack belt inserted in the second belt insertion path, and is connected with the centrifugal clutch mechanism through the second input gear.
