<p>A joint structure is provided which is capable of performing a bending operation at a large bending angle without impairing the beauty. A joint structure for a doll is provided which is provided to a rod-shaped member including a first member connected to a torso portion of the doll and a second member bendably connected to an end of the first member by means of the joint structure. The joint structure includes a one-side joint section provided to one of the first and second members; a the-other-side joint section provided to the other of the first and second members; and a pair of connecting sections that rotatably connect the one-side joint section and the the- other-side joint section, each of the connecting sections comprising: a one-side angle restricting mechanism that combines with the one-side joint section to constitute a one-side shaft mechanism for rotatably supporting the one- side joint section, and restricts a rotation angle of the one-side joint section; a the-other-side angle restricting mechanism that combines with the the-other-side joint section to constitute a the-other-side shaft mechanism for rotatably supporting the the-other-side joint section, and restricts a rotation angle of the the-other-side joint section while being in parallel to the one-side shaft mechanism with a predetermined distance therebetween; and a pair of curvature sections that at least cover the one- side shaft mechanism, the the-other-side shaft mechanism, the one-side angle restricting mechanism, and the the- other-side angle restricting mechanism, and have an exterior appearance so as to form a single body along with the ends of the first and second members in a state in which the joint section enters into a bent state from an extended state.</p> |
