LSS. Speoication of Letters Patent.
Application led October 22, 1917.- Serial No. 137,878. To all lwhom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, CHARLES M. RANKERT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Spokane, in the county of Spokane, State of ashington, have invented new and useful Improvements in Toys, of which the followingwis a specification.
his invention relates to improvements in toys. My invention includes a supporting member or spindle which is provided with a series of projections linearly disposed along the length of the spindle, abody being rotatively mounted on one end of the spindle.
e remaining end of the spindle is adapted to be held in the hand of the player and a vibratory generating member is adapted to be held 1n the remaining hand of the player and rapidly reciprocated along said series of projections. The result of such rapid vibration generated to the spindle is to impart to the free end of the latter an orbital movement such as will transmit to the rotative body a sufiicient thrust to cause the latter to rotate.
One of the novel features consists in mounting the rotative body on one end of the spindle in tion of the spindle. Thus the orbital movement of the spindle will always rotate said bod in one direction, unless the offset side of tlie spindle is supported by the thumb or fin er of the player, in which event the bog will reverse its direction of rotation.
y invention will be more fully described in connection with the accompanying drawing and will be more particularly pointed outin and by the appended claims.
In the drawing:
Figure 1 is a plan view of a toy embodying my improved invention and in which the .free end of thespindle is adapted to be held in the left hand of the player and the longer end of the actuating member by the other hand of the player. Fig. 2 is an end view showin the eccentric mounting of the member on t e spindle.
Fig. 3, is an enlarged view showin the series of linear pro'ections on the splndle over which the member is adapted to be reciprocated.
Like characters of reference desi similar tparte throughout the different ligures o f e drawing.
Ag 111.1 i. 1 designates a spindle or slst of an elongated of my invention oset or eccentricrelation with respect to the longitudinal ac mounted on one carrier on which is disposed a series of linearly arranged projections 2. The end 3 of said spindle is adapted to be firmly held in one hand of the player. At the opposite end of said spindle, as designated at 4, is a rotatively mounted body 5 which may constrip of material of any desired form. This body 5 is mounted upon a pin 6 which projects into the spindle 1, as shown, somewhat respect to the longitudinal action of the spindle 1. A head 7 on the pin 6 serves to retain the body 5 thereon. v
actuating member is shown which is preferably in the form of a rod 8 and this rod 8 is ladapted to be held by the remaining hand of the operator or player and re- -ciprocated rapidly along the projections 2.
It is highly desirable to have the projections 2 equi-distantly spaced. As the member 8f is rapidly reciprocated in pressure Contact( with the projections 2, gyratory and vibratory orbital movement is impartedl to the free end 4 and this results in imparting a rotative thrust to the body 5 which will rotate said `body in a counter clock-wise direction, looking from the right of Fig. 1. If the thumb 9 of the player is held in pressure sliding engagement along the offset side 10 of the spindle 1 then the orbital movement of the free end 4 is reversed and this results in reversing the direction of rotation of the body 5.
It is believed the advantages and utilities of my invention will be fully understood from the foregoing description, and while I have herein shown and described one specific form of my invention I do not wish to be limited thereto, except for such limitations as the claims may import.
I claim;
l. In a, toy, a rotatin body, a spindle supporting said body an having a series of projections extending substantially transversely with respect to the longitudinal axis of said spindle, a member adapted to be reciprocated along said rejections to vibrate the latter, said body eing rotatable about an axis eccentric to the longitudinal axis .of said spindle whereby brace of the latter bythe ner will generate rotative thrust to rotate sai body, substantially as described.
2. In a to a spindle adapted to be held in one han of the player and having a roughened linear surface, a body rotatively end of said spindle, a
member adapted to be held by the other hand of the `player and reoiprooeted along 'seid roughened surface to generate vibresponding to the direction of Seid body end whereby support of thespindle by the thumb nger of the player on the side or the spindle will cause seid body to reverse its direction of rotation, substantially as described.
lin testimony, that l Gleim the foregoing i5 es my own, l hereby axlmy signature. v
