Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 24, lie-l1@ aliplicetion filed November 9, 1920. Serial STO. Maese.
To all whom t may concern Be it known that l, ANDRO Svno, a citizen of Czechoslovakia, residing at Ashley, in the county of Luzerne and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in rlojv Roundabouts, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in toy roundabouts and has for one of its objects to provide a toy embodying a motor driven rotatable arm supporting carriages at the end thereof constructed in simulation of an airship. A A further object'of the invention is to provide a mechanical toy having swingingly mounted carriages supported on a rotatable frame with a novel form of spring motor mechanism for rotating the trame.
lWith the above general objects in view and others that will appear as the nature or the invention is better understood, the sanne consists in the novel form, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter more Alnlljy described, shown in the accompanying draw invs and claimed.
n the drawings, wherein like reference characters indicate corresponding parte throughout the several views,
Figure lis a side elevational view of a toy constructed in accordance with the pres ent invention,
Fig. la is a top plan view ci one of the swinging carriages carried by the toy, a pen tion of the supporting arm therefor shown,
Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional view through the central supporting standard oi the toy showing the plan,
Fig. 3 is a cross sectional view italien on line llllll or 2 showing the motor operating mechanism for the power shalt,
Fig. l is a horizontal sectional view talren on line lV--llf cii2 Fig. 3 showing the meshing ,gears and the springq motor 'for operatinn' the same,
5 is a cross sectional view Italie through the motor casing showing the scret rod for adjusting the pinion :tor connectie 4 and disconnecting the same 'with 'the sprin gear, f
lig. o is side elevational view, in section of e shirtahle power transmission pinion kwith supporting hloclr therefor, and
motor casing top Referring' incre' in detail to the accompanying drawings and particularly to Fig. 1 there is illustrated a mechanical toy enilcodying a Vcircular motor inclosing the cas- 5o ing having a central bearin disk 2 supporting a vertical tubular casing 3 having spaced collars flat the upper end thereoi3 between which the ring 5 or s transverse frame is rotatably mounted, said ring car ce rying oppositely disposed arms o, while a flag stad 7 is supported alcove the vtnlonla-ir casing 3. t
A carriage is carried by each outer end of the arms 6 and embodies a hanger 8 pivotally mounted at its upper end-as at Q within the hifurcated end ci? the arnid, the carriage supported by the hanger including; upper and lower rails l0 and ll connected by vertical rods l2. A design toy in simulation or an aeroplane includes a body i3 supporting a rotatable propeller lllr Y forward end with a i'igurel t the body 13 as clearlyr shown inliig. l.
A vertical power shalt lo is jcirroledlsc centrally within the tubular casf' the lower end theneoiv1 supported i 17 associated with the top casing, the upper end ring l of the transverse D connected to the ring to effect rotary movement thereof. A wheel 18 is the lower end cic the sh c l in cosing l and is in mesh with i9 supported hy the top v 32o the pinion in turn seing` f c spring driver gear 9,0. sprl [gear includes a shalt 2l upwardly through t `ll of one casing while a hand s; l ne end heeel secured as to the sha-t 2l, encirclingthe shaft with the enter tnercoi secured as 'to the ont i wall or the casing` l, 2l projecting upwardly throng'h l7 ci the casing las toothed secured thereto enteric I- a ringer piece 26 to e ect shaft 21 and e windings,` of
the shaft 2l is rotate spring 22 under to guided in the strai the 'top wall 1' disengage the same to permit nee rotation o one s w hen proper tension been on the spring, the nog 37 is inversely sn the threa ed opening 31 to engage the wheel and hold the spring under tension.
The shiftable pinion 19 is'ladapted -to be moved to disenga e the same from the gears 18 and 20 when t e spring is pl-aced under tension, and to accommodate such movement the pinion, 19 is carried by the stub shaft 29,
the latter being provided with a lateral ange 3() enga ng the bottom face of the casing cover 1 with the super osed block 31 projecting upwardly throng the elongated slot 32 in the casing top. A'shifting screw 33 has the opposite ends thereof rotatably mounted in bearings 34: carried by the casing top 1 threaded ortion thereof working through in the block 31 while a finger piece 35, carried by. one end of the screw 33 is ing 'tating rovided for mani ulatthe screw to shift the block 31. y rothe screw 33,`th'e block'31 and pinion 19 carried thereby is adapted to be moved at right angles to the alined gears 18 and 20 4to engage and disengage the same from rotatey the shaft 21 supporting, the gear 2OA and communicate motion through the meydium of the pinion 19 to the gear 18 carryv ing the shaft '16, therebylrotatin'g the shaft and thetransverse arms 6 connected to the upper ends thereof with a circular swinging movement with the intermediate.
of the carriages suspended at the havia-tacj outer ends of the arms.v During suchmovement the propellers 14 carried by the figure aeroplanes 13 will be'rotated4to create the imw'ession of flying machines.
hile there is herein shownand described the preferred embodiment of1 the present invention, it is nevertheless to be understood that minor changes may be made thereinl without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.y l
What is claimed as new 'isz- Y A toy of the t pe described comprising a casing, a vertica shaft rotatably supported therein, motor mechanism within the casinor for rotating the shaft, a cross arm supporte on the upper end of the shaft and rotating therewith, a carriage swingingly mounted upon the outer ends of the cross arm, said motor mechanism including a train of ears communicating with the rotatable s aft, one of said gears carrying a shaft extending upwardly through the casing, a spring connected at one ofits ends to said shaft and at theother end to the inner` wall of the casing, means for lacing the spring under tension, a toothewheel carried by said shaft above said casing, a sliding .dog
adapted to engage said toothed wheel to conv said casing havtrol rotation ofthe shaft,
the upper wall ing an elongated slot in thereof, a block carried by one of said gears l and extending upwardly through Vsaid slot,
and an adjusting screw associated with' said block for shifting the block and gear caryried thereby to disengage the same from the train of gearing whereby the rotatable shaft will remain stationary when the spring gear is being placed under'tension.
