SAMUEL H. WEILMAN, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
TOY AND AMUSEMENT DEVICE.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SAMUEL H. l/VEILMAN, or New York city, N. Y., have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Toy and Amusement Devices, of which the following is a specification.
l have aimed to develop an amusement device which will appeal to the public generally, and I have designated the device in its various forms by the arbitrarily selected term or expression of Kan the Kaiser as it includes a representation of the Kaiser, which is raised into view and disappears through the action of a ball which trips suitable mechanism.
1 may make the device in two forms, one to be used as a relatively small toy by children in the home, or in the shape of an amusement device on a larger scale for use in public Places.
In the accompanying drawing, 1 have shown in Figure 1 the toy form of the device, while in,
Fig. 2 I have shown it as adapted for public places.
Appropriate to the designation Kan the Kaiser I have shown in Fig. 1 a can a which may be made of metal or card board or wood with an open top and bottom, the bottom being formed with openings 1) through which a ball 0 may be shot. Centrally of the can or cylinder 1 suspend a cup (Z having a raised center e, this cup having a dependent portion 7 which is in line with the openings 6 and when the ball 0 passes through one of the openings with suflicient force it will come in contact with the dependent part f of the cup 0? and displace a ball it connected by a cord or wire ito a rod is which extends rearwardly from a slab of metal or wood m cut to conform to the shape of a human body and depicting upon its front face the representation of the Kaiser. This slab is pivoted atn ofi" from the center which keeps the slab m normally in an upright position with the rep resentation of the Kaiser showing above the edge of the can. The cup 65 1s supported by Specification of Letters Patent. Fa her and lFqgh, 2%, twi

chains or cords 0 to a cross-rod 11. When the ball 0 is thrown with sufficient accuracy to enter the opening 6 it will come in contact with the dependent part f swinging the cup 03 to displace the ball it and cause this ball to fall into the depressed part of the cup with the result that the weight of the ball will depress the rod is and pull the slab m rearwardly and as soon as it passes beyond the pivot end it will fall quickly within the can and disappear from the sight of the observer. lt may be restored to position and the game continued.
Instead of having this in miniature it may be made on a very much larger scale and the structure which contains the figure may be made in the form of a fort with guns protruding, and in this case an opening is made as shown at b, the ball being shown at 0, and just inside the wall there is a disk 7" depending from a rod 71 pivoted at 0% its upper end being headed as at 0 and being engaged by the forked inner end of a weighted lever 39, the slab m carrying the representation of the Kaiser as in the first form. As the ball is thrown through the port it hits the disk 7 and releases the upper end of the lever '5 from the forked end oi the weighted lever 39 with the result that the overweighted slab falls rearwardly and disappears.
I do not limitmyself as to the details oi construction nor to the particular form in which the parts are to appear as these may be changed.
l/Vhat I claim is A toy or amusement device comprising a structure, a slab pivoted within said structure, a movable weight connected to said slab tending normally to hold it upright, a cup shaped support for said weight havin a raised center for retaining the weight W en the slab is in its normal position, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof, I a'ffix my signature.
