Abstract

669,167. Magnetic toys; magnetic games; models. FOREMAN, E. G. Nov. 14, 1950 [Dec. 23, 1949], No. 32915/49. Classes 132 (ii), 132 (iii) and 146 (ii). In Fig. 1 a track 1 for a magnetically controlled toy vehicle comprises a sheet of material which does not act as a magnetic screen. A magnet 35 is supported at the intersection of pairs of rods 3, 4 which may be moved longitudinally and laterally respectively by manual control means. The magnet 35 may thus be moved to any position beneath the track. The rods 3 are carried on guide runners 9 and are coupled to side chains 5 which run on sprockets 6 and 7, the latter being actuated through gearing and a rack and pinion by tilting a steering wheel. Rods 4 are mounted and driven in a substantially like manner but are controlled by turning the steering wheel. The vehicle 29 has a steering block running on ball bearings 32 and the block holds a magnet 34 which coacts with the magnet 35. A modification, Fig. 7 (not shown), provides spring urged means to keep the lower magnet in contact with the under side of the track which may be slightly undulated. The magnets may be electromagnets or one magnet may coact with magnetic metal. Tapes or cords or the like may be used in place of the chains 5, 10.
