FIG. 1 , a transformingflower doll 100 is shown. The transformingflower doll 100 may include adoll body 102. Thedoll body 102 may include atorso 104, ahead 106 connected to the torso, and twoarms 108 connected to the torso. The transformingflower doll 100 may further include adress 110 having a bodice portion 112 and askirt portion 114. The bodice portion 112 of thedress 110 may be connected and/or integral to theskirt portion 114, or the bodice portion and the skirt portion may be non-integral components. The bodice portion 112 of thedress 110 may further be an article of clothing for thedoll 100 that can be placed on thetorso 104 and removed from the torso. Alternatively, the bodice portion 112 may simply be a decorative feature of thetorso 104 that is permanently connected to the torso. In one embodiment, the bodice portion 112 may simply include a painted portion of thetorso 104. Theskirt portion 114 of thedress 110 may be connected to the bodice portion 112, or the skirt portion may be connected to thetorso 104. In many embodiments, theskirt portion 114 may resemble a flowing ball gown or any other appropriate dress lower portion. Theskirt portion 114 may be made of any appropriate material. - As shown in
FIGS. 2 and 3 , theskirt portion 114 of thedress 110 may at least partially surround one or moreartificial flowers 116. When theskirt portion 114 is at least partially surrounding the one or moreartificial flowers 116, this position may be considered a skirt lowered position. Theskirt portion 114 in the skirt lowered position may optionally fully cover the one or moreartificial flowers 116 at the front, back, and sides of thedoll 100. Stated another way, theartificial flowers 116 may only be visible when looking under theskirt portion 114 by either raising the skirt portion or viewing the flowers by looking from below the bottom side of thedoll 100. - Turning now to
FIGS. 4-6 , steps for transforming thedoll 100 from a doll mode (FIG. 1 ) to a flower mode (FIG. 6 ) are shown. First, a user may move thearms 108 from a lowered position (as shown inFIG. 3 ) to a raised position (as shown inFIG. 4 ). Next, a user may move theskirt portion 114 of thedress 110 toward thehead 106 of thedoll 100. With theskirt portion 114 in this position, asleeve 118 may be exposed. Thesleeve 118 may be in a retracted position. A user may then extend thesleeve 118 to at least partially cover thedoll body 102. Thesleeve 118 may also at least partially cover theskirt portion 114 of thedress 110 in this extended position. Once thesleeve 118 has been extended, thedoll 100 may be in the flower mode (shown inFIG. 6 ). - The
sleeve 118 may be connected to thetorso 104 of thedoll body 102. Thesleeve 118 may be further configured to be placed in both the extended position (such as shown inFIG. 6 ) and the retracted position (such as shown inFIG. 5 ). The extended position may include thesleeve 118 at least partially covering thedoll body 102. In some embodiments, the extended position may include thesleeve 118 at least partially covering and surrounding thedoll body 102. In further embodiments, the extended position may include thesleeve 118 substantially covering and surrounding thedoll body 102. In further still embodiments, thesleeve 118 may cover and/or surround a majority of thedoll body 102 in the extended position. Theskirt portion 114 of thedress 110 may be substantially covered when thesleeve 118 is in the extended position, as well. Thesleeve 118 may cover and/or surround a majority of theskirt portion 114 in the extended position. Additionally or alternatively, thesleeve 118 may be configured to substantially tightly surround thedoll body 102 with thearms 108 in the raised position. Thesleeve 118 may be further configured to leave thedoll body 102 substantially uncovered when the sleeve is in the retracted position. In many embodiments, a majority of thedoll body 102 is uncovered when thesleeve 118 is in the retracted position. In some embodiments, thesleeve 118 may be rolled over itself in the retracted position. In such embodiments, thesleeve 118 may be unrolled over thedoll body 102 to surround the doll body. Other embodiments may include thesleeve 118 folded over itself, compressed against itself, and the like in the retracted position. - Turning now to
FIGS. 11 and 12 , in some embodiments, theskirt portion 114 of thedress 110 may function as thesleeve 118. That is to say, thesleeve 118 and theskirt portion 114 may be the same component of thedoll 100. In such embodiments, theskirt portion 114 may substantially cover the at least oneflower 116 when the skirt portion is in the doll mode position. Theskirt portion 114 may substantially cover thedoll body 102 when the skirt portion is in the flower mode position. Many embodiments may include one or more fasteners configured to retain theskirt portion 114 in the flower mode position. These fasteners may include, but are not limited to, tie straps, sections ofhooks 119A with corresponding sections ofloops 119B including for example Velcro connections, buttons, and the like. - As shown in
FIGS. 1 and 3-5 , many embodiments of thedoll 100 may include theskirt portion 114 of thedress 110 connected to at least one of thetorso 104 and thesleeve 118. In some embodiments, theskirt portion 114 may be connected to thetorso 104 between thehead 106 and thesleeve 118. As discussed above, theskirt portion 114 may be connected directly to thetorso 104, directly to thesleeve 118, directly to the bodice portion 112, or some combination of the above. - The
torso 104 may include ahead end 120 and abottom end 122 opposite the head end. Thehead 106 may be connected to thetorso 104 nearer thehead end 120 than thebottom end 122. In such embodiments, thesleeve 118 may be further configured to roll up into the retracted position nearer thebottom end 122 of thetorso 104 than thehead end 120. - As shown in
FIGS. 5-9, 13, and 14 , the at least oneartificial flower 116 may include astem 124 connected to thetorso 104. In some embodiments, thestem 124 of eachartificial flower 116 may be connected to thetorso 104 nearer thebottom end 122 than thehead end 120. Each of theartificial flowers 116 may further include at least onepetal 126 connected to therespective stem 124. The at least onepetal 126 may be opposite thehead 106 of thedoll body 102. Of course, many embodiments may include the at least oneartificial flower 116 including a plurality of artificial flowers. In such embodiments, each of a plurality of stems 124 may be connected to thetorso 104. In some embodiments, the stems 124 may be connected to thebottom end 122 of thetorso 104. - Many embodiments may include the
torso 104 including aninterior cavity 128 defined therein. In such embodiments, thestem 124 of eachartificial flower 116 may extend into theinterior cavity 128. As shown inFIGS. 9, 10, and 13 , astem retainer 130 may be disposed in theinterior cavity 128 of thetorso 104. Thestem retainer 130 may be configured to hold thestem 124 of theartificial flower 116. In embodiments including a plurality ofartificial flowers 116, astem spacer 132 may be connected to thetorso 104 of thedoll body 102. Thestem spacer 132 may include a plurality of stem receiving holes 134 defined therein. Each stem receiving hole 134 may be configured to receive thestem 124 of a respectiveartificial flower 116 therethrough. In this and other embodiments, each of the plurality of stems 124 may project away from thebottom end 122 of thetorso 104 in a respective one of a plurality of directions. Of course, as shown inFIG. 14 , neither astem retainer 130 nor astem spacer 132 may be required in some embodiments of thedoll 100. Many such embodiments may include one or more portions of thedoll body 102, for instance thetorso 104, surrounding or otherwise interacting with the one or more stems 124. - In some embodiments, the at least one
artificial flower 116 may be removable from thedoll body 102. Some embodiments include only one removableartificial flower 116 out of a plurality of artificial flowers, while other embodiments include all the artificial flowers being removable. Many of such embodiments include theartificial flower 116 configured to be reattached to thedoll body 102 after removal. Additionally or alternatively, thedoll body 102 may be configured to repeatedly receive and release the at least oneartificial flower 116. Of course, other embodiments may include real flowers instead of theartificial flowers 116. In embodiments allowing for removableartificial flowers 116, thestem retainer 130 may be configured to receive thestem 124 of the at least one artificial flower. Thestem retainer 130 may be further configured to retain the one or more stems 124 up to a threshold removal force. In such embodiments, eachartificial flower 116 may be securely held by thestem retainer 130 until a user removes it, for instance. In some embodiments, thestem retainer 130 may be further configured to retain thestem 124 of each of a plurality ofartificial flowers 116 up to a threshold removal force, even when a respective stem is removed from the stem retainer. Stated another way, thestem retainer 130 may be configured to maintain thestems 124 secured therein regardless of how many stems are retained by the stem retainer. Thestem retainer 130 may be further configured to receive one or more stems 124 and thereafter retain them. The stems 124 retained in the stem retainer 130 (or otherwise connected to the torso 104) may be rigid and/or numerous enough such that they may support thedoll 100 in an upright, or standing, position on a substantially flat surface. - Many embodiments of the
doll 100 may include thearms 108 rotatably connected to thetorso 104. Thearms 108 may be connected to thetorso 104 byjoints 136. Thejoints 136 may include hinge joints, ball and socket joints, or any other appropriate rotatable connection. Thearms 108 are, therefore, configured to pivot from a lowered position (shown inFIG. 3 ) to a raised position (shown inFIG. 4 ). As such, thesleeve 118, which may be connected to thetorso 104 somewhere between thehead 106 and the at least onepetal 126 of the at least oneartificial flower 116, may then be unrolled over thearms 108 when the arms are in the raised position. Of course, some embodiments may be configured such that thesleeve 118 may cover and surround thedoll body 102 regardless of the position of thearms 108. - Some embodiments of the
doll 100 having rotatably connectedarms 108 may include the arms controlling extension and retraction of the at least oneartificial flower 116. In such embodiments, theartificial flowers 116 may be in a retracted position where a portion of thestems 124 of each artificial flower is disposed in theinternal cavity 128 of thetorso 104. Upon moving thearms 108 to the raised position (in anticipation of converting thedoll 100 to the flower mode), theartificial flowers 116 may move to the extended position where a lesser portion of thestems 124 of each artificial flower is disposed in theinternal cavity 128 when compared to the retracted position. In these embodiments, theflowers 116 may be more hidden when thedoll 100 is in the doll mode (shown inFIG. 1 ), and the flowers may be more prominent when the doll is in the flower mode (shown inFIG. 6 ). An example of a manner of accomplishing this task may include at least one of thearms 108 actuating a gear. The gear may then actuate a linear gear such that the assembly acts as a rack and pinion. The stems 124 may be connected directly or indirectly to the linear gear, such as connecting thestem retainer 130 directly or indirectly to the linear gear. - This written description uses examples to disclose the invention and also to enable any person skilled in the art to practice the invention, including making and using any devices or systems. The patentable scope of the invention is defined by the claims, and may include other examples that occur to those skilled in the art. Such other examples are intended to be within the scope of the claims if they have structural elements that do not differ from the literal language of the claims or if they include equivalent structural elements with insubstantial differences from the literal language of the claims.
- Although embodiments of the disclosure have been described using specific terms, such description is for illustrative purposes only. The words used are words of description rather than limitation. It is to be understood that changes and variations may be made by those of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit or the scope of the present disclosure, which is set forth in the following claims. In addition, it should be understood that aspects of the various embodiments may be interchanged in whole or in part. While specific uses for the subject matter of the disclosure have been exemplified, other uses are contemplated. Therefore, the spirit and scope of the appended claims should not be limited to the description of the versions contained herein.
