317175 ATTORNEY? PATENT 0112? JOHN S. SWANSON, OF ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA.
TOY CAR OR COACH.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Mar. 28, 1922.
Application filed November 16, 1920. Serial No. 424,455.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN S. S\VA1 \*SON, a subject of the King of Sweden, hav ng declared my intention to become a citizen of the United States. residing at St. Paul, in the county of Ramsey and State of Minn esota, have invented a new and useful Toy vCar or Coach, of which the following is a Fig. 3 1s a section on the line 3-3 in Fig. 2.
Referrlng to the drawing by reference numerals, 4 designates the body of the car with an arched roof 5 preferably made of tin or other thin sheet metal cheap to construct. The floor 6 of the car is provided with four skeins 7 which may be either secured in the edges of the bottom or in bearings 8 depending below it or the skeins may be connected in pairs to form axles 9. as shown in Fig. 2.
The two ends of the car are about alike, being each formed with aplatform 10, clashboard 11 and an eyelet 12, to which a cord .13 may be fastened for pulling the car.
Each end of the car is closed by a colored but transparent curtain 14 suspended from a horizontal rod 15 and having its lower edge provided with a rod 16 heavy enough to keep the curtain stretched. Said curtain is preferably yellow in one end of the car and some other color in the other. end.
The side windows 17 of the car have no glass but are covered with a' transparent reddish canvas 18.
Secured upon the floor of the car is a dry battery 19 from which circuit wires 20 extend to a lamp 21 suspended from the middle portion of the roof of the car. The circuit is provided with a suitable switch 22 for closing or breaking the circuit to the lamp.
In operation the battery serves as a ballast to hold the car steady on the floor when a child pulls it along by the cord 13. By applying the switch 22 the lamp will light up the car and make it much resemble a street car or passenger coach with drawn curtains and is a very interesting toy for children. The car has no special means for steering or turning an of its wheels, the child drawing the car y the cord 13 is so near to the car that by pulling upward and sidewise with the cord the forward wheels of the car will move laterally either with or without being raised from the floor.
To make the toy all the more interesting without going to the expense of furnishing models of passengers in the car, I simply print outlines of people on the side curtains of the car as indicated at 23, 24 in Fig. 1. Said prints having a variety of head gears and other features and an ape 25 for comic variation, have proven to make it a very interesting toy.
\Vhat I claim is:
1. A toy car having side windows with translucent material over them and a source of light within the car, printed figures on said translucent material to make the appearance of silhouettes on the windows when the light within the car is in use.
2. A toy car having side windows with translucent material over them, a source of light within the car, said translucent material having printed upon it figures to make the appearance of various types of passengers seen through the windows when the light within the car is in use.
In testimony whereof I affix m. si nature.
JOHN S. SVV APEQON.
