Abstract

The present invention includes a toy with a retractable mechanism capable of transforming its original compact shape into a new entity, comprising: a hollow sphere (1) provided with a cut on the lower part thereof (2), on the upper end a convex protuberance is projected (3), provided with a modified asymmetric cylinder, which reduces its size in the upper end assimilating the neck of the body of the sphere (4), formed by two hinges of plastic material adjoined to both caps (5); and two internal springs that maintain these hinges under tension to maintain the body inside the sphere (6) which, when pressed, activates the operation of the main spring (7) in such a way that, when the sphere (1) receives a strike or is pressed, an identity different from the initial one is shown.

Claims

1. A toy with a retractable mechanism capable of transforming its original compact shape into a new entity, without the need to manipulate its parts or add new parts, comprising:

a hollow sphere (1) provided with a cut on the lower part thereof (2), on the upper end a convex protuberance (3) is projected, provided with a modified asymmetric cylinder, which reduces its size in the upper end assimilating the neck of the body of the sphere (4), formed by two hinges of plastic material adjoined to both caps (5); and

two internal springs that maintain these hinges under tension to maintain the body inside the sphere (6) which, when pressed, activates the operation of the main spring (7) in such a way that, when the sphere (1) receives a strike or is pressed, the internal body of the sphere (1) moves the body with the impact (4);

constituting between the sphere (1) and the body (4) an identity different from an initial identity.

2. The toy of claim 1, wherein the body (4) is out of the sphere (1), it is constituted at the head of the body.

3. The toy of claim 1, wherein the body (4) is constituted by one single part, which provides it with a higher rigidity and resistance.

4. The toy of claim 1, wherein the shape of the body (4) can display several aspects, depending on the targeted segment, from the type of color, pattern, among others, whether it is animal or human, the latter with either male, female, or asexual gender, or with the appearance of a baby, a child or an adult.

5. The toy of claim 1, wherein the sphere (1) can allow for different variations, ranging from an oval shape, different colors or textures, or different faces, depending on the adhesive adjoined to the frontal, lateral and rear surfaces.

6. A method of deploying a toy comprising:

providing a hollow sphere (1) with a cut on the lower part thereof (2), and on the upper end a convex protuberance (3) is projected, provided with a modified asymmetric cylinder, which reduces its size in the upper end assimilating the neck of the body of the sphere (4), formed by two hinges of plastic material adjoined to both caps (5); and

placing two internal springs that maintain these hinges under tension to maintain the body inside the sphere (6) wherein, when pressed, the activates the operation of the main spring (7) in such a way that, when the sphere (1) receives a strike or is pressed, the internal body of the sphere (1) moves the body with the impact (4);

constituting between the sphere (1) and the body (4) an identity different from an initial identity.

7. The method of claim 6, wherein the body (4) is outside of the sphere (1), the sphere (1) that forms a head of a character.

8. The method of claim 6, wherein the body (4) is constituted by one single part, which provides it with a higher rigidity and resistance.

9. The method of claim 6, wherein the shape of the body (4) can display several aspects, depending on the targeted segment, from the type of color, pattern, among others, whether it is animal or human, the latter with either male, female, or asexual gender, or with the appearance of a baby, a child or an adult.

10. The method of claim 6, wherein the sphere (1) can allow for different variations, ranging from an oval shape, different colors or textures, or different faces, depending on the adhesive adjoined to the frontal, lateral and rear surfaces.

12. The toy of claim 7, wherein the body (4) is out of the sphere (1), it is constituted at the head of the body.

13. The toy of claim 7, wherein the body (4) is constituted by one single part, which provides it with a higher rigidity and resistance.

14. The toy of claim 7, wherein the shape of the body (4) can display several aspects, depending on the targeted segment, from the type of color, pattern, among others, whether it is animal or human, the latter with either male, female, or asexual gender, or with the appearance of a baby, a child or an adult.

15. The toy of claim 7, wherein the sphere (1) can allow for different variations, ranging from an oval shape, different colors or textures, or different faces, depending on the adhesive adjoined to the frontal, lateral and rear surfaces.

11. A toy with a retractable mechanism capable of transforming its original compact shape into a new entity, without the need to manipulate its parts or add new parts, consisting essentially of:

a hollow sphere (1) provided with a cut on the lower part thereof (2), on the upper end a convex protuberance (3) is projected, provided with a modified asymmetric cylinder, which reduces its size in the upper end assimilating the neck of the body of the sphere (4), formed by two hinges of plastic material adjoined to both caps (5); and

two internal springs that maintain these hinges under tension to maintain the body inside the sphere (6) which, when pressed, activates the operation of the main spring (7) in such a way that, when the sphere (1) receives a strike or is pressed, the internal body of the sphere (1) moves the body with the impact (4);

constituting between the sphere (1) and the body (4) an identity different from an initial identity.

16. A toy with a retractable mechanism capable of transforming its original compact shape into a new entity, without the need to manipulate its parts or add new parts, consisting of:

a hollow sphere (1) provided with a cut on the lower part thereof (2), on the upper end a convex protuberance (3) is projected, provided with a modified asymmetric cylinder, which reduces its size in the upper end assimilating the neck of the body of the sphere (4), formed by two hinges of plastic material adjoined to both caps (5); and

two internal springs that maintain these hinges under tension to maintain the body inside the sphere (6) which, when pressed, activates the operation of the main spring (7) in such a way that, when the sphere (1) receives a strike or is pressed, the internal body of the sphere (1) moves the body with the impact (4);

constituting between the sphere (1) and the body (4) an identity different from an initial identity.
