Description
1930. R. c. KENNEY CHILDS TEETER OR MERRY-GO-ROUND Filed Sept. 20, 1928 gmmkw RAWIOND C. KENNEY,
Patented Feb. 11, 1930 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE CHILDS TEETER OR MERRY-GO-ROUND Application filed September 20, 1928.
This invention relates to so-called childrens teeters and merry-go-rounds, and be longs to that type of amusement apparatus designed for the entertainment of young children and in which means are incorporated for permitting an up and down movement of a rocking nature as in a seesaw, and at the same time there may be given the operators or riders a circular orbital movement about a vertical axis.
The object of this invention is the production of a plaything of the character stated comprising parts of very simple, easily made and understood construction, sufficiently strong to withstand rough usage, and which a young child can readily learn to operate, the component parts being of special shape and disposition.
The accompanying drawings illustrate the preferred form of this invention. Fig. 1 of the drawings represents a side view of all parts assembled. Fig. 2 is a top view. Fig. 3 is an enlarged sectional View of the universal or ball joint between the inverted V- shaped carrierframe and the top of the center post.
Throughout the drawings and description the same number is used to refer to the same )art. 1 Considering the drawings, a ground base or support designated as a whole by numeral 1, is customarily formed with wings 2, 3 and 4. to afford a firm, non-slipping base upon the ground. To the base a vertical post 5 is attached by the bolts 5*.
As best illustrated in Fig. 3, at the top of the post is placed a ball 6, adapted to rock or turn in any direction in a cup or cap 7. The cup 7 is provided with an oil duct 8 closed by a screw plug 9 which secures the cup to the cross bar 10 that is made to strongly couple the upper part of the inverted V- shaped carrier frame comprising the downwardly and outwardly inclined boards 11 and 12. The lower ends of the inclined boards are joined to and located between the end portions of side boards 13 and 14: arranged edges up, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The lower edges of the side boards are held in proper spaced relation by the cross bars 15 and 16 Serial No. 307,165.
secured to the side boards by the metal angles 17 and 18. The bars 17 and 18 bear the foot boards 19 and 20, and the side boards carry at their ends the seats 21 and 22.
It is thought that evena young child may easily be taught to sit upon one of the seats and place the feet on a foot board. When both seats are taken by the children, they may give the frame an up and down'movement and at the same time describe a. circular path. The invention as constructed may be quickly taken down and erected in a new position entirely without calling for mechanical skill of any kind, and it cannot get out of order.
Having now described this invention and the mode of its operation, I claim In a device of the character described, the combination with a vertical post, of a ground base therefor, horizontally spaced side boards arranged one on either side of the post, seats carried by the side boards at the endsthereof, foot boards extending from one seat to the other, the said foot boards being spaced horizontally and supported by the said side boards lower than the said seats, an inverted V-shaped frame having its lower ends secured to the said side boards, a cross-bar connecting the upper ends of the said frame, and a universal joint carried by the said post and cross-bar whereby the said frame is supported and adapted to be rocked and revolved simultaneously.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
RAYMOND C. KENNEY.
