Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A spinning top toy for spinning on a surface includes a shaft part and a body. The shaft part includes a shaft part body and a ground contact part being integrally formed with the shaft part body. The shaft part extends in an axial direction. The body is configured on the shaft part. The ground contact part includes a wheel-shaped body being slidably configured on the shaft part body. The wheel-shaped body is configured to be moved to a first position, and is configured to be moved to a second position. The second position is closer to the surface than the second position in the axial direction. The wheel-shaped body is configured to be in contact with the surface when at the second position.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A spinning top toy for spinning on a surface, comprising: a shaft part including a shaft part body and a ground contact part being integrally formed with the shaft part body, the shaft part extending in an axial direction; and a body being detachable configured on the shaft part, the body being rotatable against the shaft part when an impact is applied to the body, the ground contact part including a first ground contact member at a tip thereof and a second ground contact member having a wheel shape, the second ground contact member being slidably configured on the shaft part body, the second ground contact member being configured for a user to move between a first position a second position, the second position being closer to the surface than the first position in the axial direction, the second ground contact member being configured to be in contact with the surface when at the second position, when the second ground contact member is at the first position, the second ground contact member being not in contact with the surface, when the second ground contact member is at the second position, the first ground contact member being not in contact with the surface, the wheel shape being in a disk shape, the ground contact part being configured to rotate around the axial direction with respect to the shaft part body. 2. A spinning top toy for spinning on a surface, comprising: a shaft part including a shaft part body and a ground contact part being integrally formed with the shaft part body, the shaft part extending in an axial direction; and a body being configured on the shaft part, the ground contact part including a first ground contact member at a tip thereof and a second ground contact member having a wheel shape, the second ground contact member being slidably configured on the shaft part body, the second ground contact member being configured for a user to move between a first position and a second position, the second position being closer to the surface than the first position in the axial direction, the second ground contact member being configured to be in contact with the surface when at the second position, the shaft part including a projection being formed in circular and a flange being formed in circular, the flange being configured closer to the surface than the projection to the surface, a part of the second ground contact member being inserted at a gap formed between the projection and the flange when the second ground contact member is at the second position. 3. The spinning top toy according to claim 2 , wherein when the second ground contact member is at the first position, the second ground contact member is not in contact with the surface, and when the second ground contact member is at the second position, the first ground contact member is not in contact with the surface. 4. The spinning top toy according to claim 2 , wherein the wheel shape is in a disk shape, and the ground contact part is configured to rotate around the axial direction with respect to the shaft part body. 5. A spinning top toy set comprising: a spinning top toy according to claim 2 ; and a game board forming a circular battle field in a plane view and a traveling path connecting to the battle field.
