<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an alphabet toy having a letter shape from which the external shape of an article corresponding to a word including the letter instantaneously emerges by a simple operation. <P>SOLUTION: The alphabet toy includes a plurality of component members, connections, resilient members, engagement parts, and a switch member. At least some of the plurality of component members folded into a first shape constituting front and back surfaces having the contour shape of the letter, and side surfaces disposed along the contour shape, respectively, when assembled against the resilient force of the resilient member, the letter shape is maintained by the engagement part, the switch member is disposed at a position in which a top surface constitutes the same surface as the front surface, back surface, or the side surface in the first shape, engagement of the engagement part is released according to a pressing force applied to the top surface. When the switch member is operated, the engagement of the engagement part is released, and the component members flips by the resilient force of the resilient member, and a second shape emerges which expresses the external shape of the article corresponding to the word including the letter. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
