Abstract
Disclosed is a toy spinning top. The top includes a rotatable blade, a driving force generator coupled with the blade and generating a driving force to rotate the blade, and an attack ring detachably coupled with the blade to idly rotate against the blade. The toy top does not generate fragments when colliding with an adjacent top or other objects, and does not cause injury to a human body even if the toy top collides with the human body, so that the top can be used for safe play.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A toy top comprising:
a rotatable blade; a driving force generator coupled with the blade and generating a driving force to rotate the blade; and an attack ring detachably coupled with the blade to idly rotate against the blade.
2 . The toy top of claim 1 , wherein the blade includes:
a blade top constituting an upper portion of the blade; and a blade bottom detachably coupled with a blade top at a lower region of the blade top, wherein the attack ring is coupled between the blade top and the blade bottom.
3 . The toy top of claim 2 , wherein at least one protrusion is formed on an outer surface of the attack ring.
4 . The toy top of claim 3 , wherein protrusions are arranged at an equal interval in a circumferential direction of the attack ring.
5 . The toy top of claim 2 , further comprising a weight disc interposed between the blade top and the blade bottom.
6 . The toy top of claim 5 , wherein the weight disc includes a plurality of grooves formed radially inward or outward of the weight disc, and wherein the weight disc includes an offensive weight disc and a defensive weight disc.
7 . The toy top of claim 1 , wherein the driving force generator includes:
a shaft bush coupled with the blade; a pinion coupled with the shaft bush; a shaft coupled with the pinion; a pair of gear housings which are coupled with each other while surrounding the pinion and the shaft and provided at one side thereof with a wire entrance port through which a rack-type winder geared with the pinion is introduced and withdrawn in order to rotate the pinion; an apex holder having an lower end portion coupled with an apex; and a handle coupling the gear housings with the apex holder.
8 . The toy top of claim 7 , further comprising a plurality of wire entrance ports provided at positions different from each other so that a rotation is performed counterclockwise or clockwise by the driving force generator.
9 . The toy top of claim 7 , wherein the driving force generator further includes bearings coupled with both sides of the shaft, respectively.
10 . The toy top of claim 7 , wherein the driving force generator further includes at least one handle ring coupled with an outer portion of the handle to idly rotate with respect to the handle.
11 . The toy top of claim 7 , wherein the apex includes an offensive apex having a truncated conical-shape or a defensive apex having a hemispherical shape.
12 . The toy top of claim 1 , further comprising a design cover coupled with a top surface of the blade.
13 . The toy top of claim 12 , further comprising at least one magnet coupled with at least one of the design cover and the driving force generator.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
