ALFRED Z. BAKER, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., ASSIGNOR T0 '1. B. TOY COMPANY, 035 NEWARK. NEW JERSEY.
WHEELED BECIPROGATING TOY.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May "Z, 1918.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALFRED Z. BAKER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city of New York, borough of Manhattan, in the county and State of New.
York, have invented a new and Improved Wheeled Reciprocating Toy, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to a wheeled toy having identical stationary and reciprocating members with means thereon for simulating motion from either side of the stationary or the movable member when the reciprocating member is actuated by the motion of the wheels.
An object of the invention is to provide a simple, inexpensive and attractive toy.
I attain the above and other objects of my invention by the structure conventionally disclosed in the accompanying drawings, wherein similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure 1 is an elevation of a toy embodying my invention, showing the reciprocating member in its raised position;
Fig. 2, a similar elevation showing the reciprocating member in its lowermost position' Fig. 3, an elevation of the other side from that shown in Fig. 1;
Fig. 4, a vertical section on line 4-4L, Flg. 1 and Fig. 5, a side elevation of the toy as it appears in operation.
Referring to the drawings, 6 is a carrier, preferably in the shape of a rectangular board, which is shown with the representation of an animal on its outer face. There are two openings 7 and 8 in said carrier which may represent various parts of theanimals body, depending on the character of the animal. As shown, the opening 7 represents one of the eyes of the animal and the opening 8 represents the mouth. Side members 9 are secured to the longitudinal edges ofthe carrier 6. These side members extend beyond one end and beyond the rear face of the carrier so as to provide a guide way for a member 10 which is free to slide between the side members on the carrier. The member 10 is prevented from moving to and from the carrier by staples 13 anchored in the side members 9. The member 10 carries on its outer surface the representation of an. animal, either similar to that shown as illustrated or a different one, if so desired. It has also a pair of openings 11 and 12 adapted to represent some part of the animals body; in this particular case representing an eye and mouth respectively.
A crank shaft or axle 14: is revolubly mounted in the end of the braces 9. To the projecting end of said axle, wheels 15 are secured. The carrier 6 has a socket 16 for receiving a stick 1'? to facilitate the propelling of the toy. A ring or loop 18 is provided on the crank. This loop engages the hooked end 19 of a rod 20 extending from the mem ber 10. The hooked end allows the ring or loop to move along the straight portion of the hooked end and thereby move the member 10 up and down during the rotation of the wheels.
The rear surfaces of both the carrier and member 10 are provided with means to cooperate with the openings in said carrier and member, as, for example, the pupil of an eye is drawn on each inner surface of the carrier and member 10 to cooperate with the eye openings 7 and 11 respectively. Each inner surface of the carrier and the member 10 is also provided with a flexible member 21 which extends through the mouth opening of the member and carrier respectively and which is intended to represent a tongue. The reciprocation of the member 10 during the rotation of the wheels simulates the movement of an eye and tongue of the animal represented on the outer faces of the carrier and member 10, no matter from which side the toy is viewed.
It is self-evident that a rigid member may be secured in place of the flexible member 21 in cases where the representation of the animal is different; also in place of representing the pupil of an eye on the rear faces of the carrier and the movable member 10, a rigid member may be secured to be actuated by the relative movement of the carrier and the movable member. I
While I have described the principle of operation, together with the device which I now consider to be the best embodiment thereof, I desire to have it understood that the device shown is merely illustrative and 7 that such changes may be made as are within the scope of the appended claims.
7 I claim:
