Abstract

590,621. Toys. REEVES, F. K. Jan. 9, 1945, No. 763. [Class 132 (iii)] [Also in Group XXXIII] Means for releasably attaching a toy parachute 20 to a kite string 25 for longitudinal movement thereon comprises a block 26 having a transverse slot 28 and a pair of longitudinal holes 31, 32 one of which passes through opposite faces of the slot. A catch member is provided having a pair of limbs 37, 38 which pass through the holes. When the projecting end 40 of one of the limbs is moved inwardly against the action of a helical spring 55 the shorter limb is withdrawn from the slot. The block 26 has two hooks to receive the kite string. The release actuating means is in the form of a stop 44 held in position on the string by a wedge 48. In modifications the helical compression spring is replaced by a helical tension spring attached to the block and to an intermediate portion 39 of the catch member. The hooks may be replaced by pulleys and the stop may comprise a circular plate with a slot end peripheral lip and may have a set screw to replace the wedge.
