SAND TOY.
To all 20 iwm it may concern Be it known that we, GEORGE J; GENUNG and TVILBERT L. VVnLsH, citizens of the United States, residing at Beaver Falls and New Brighton, respectively, in the county of Beaver, State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Sand Toy, of'which the following is a specification.
on line 33 of Figure 1.
This invention relates to figured toys, and more particularly to toys of this character wherein the figures are caused to move simulating movements of'a human being.
The primaryobject of the, invention is to provide a toy of this character wherein the figures are moved by a novel mechanism, eliminating all spring and perishablestructures in the operation of the device.
A further object of the invention is the provision of gutters or the like for directing sand to the propelling wheel, forminga part of the operating mechanism,wh'ereby the weight of the volve.
l/Vith the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear asthe description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment ofthe invention herein disclosed, may be made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing from the spirit of the invention. Referring to the drawings Figure 1 illustrates a front elevational view of a toy constructed in accordance with the present invention. Figure 2 illustrates a front elevational View of theoperatin'g mechanism, the cover of the toy being removed, and portions of the mechanism being broken away.
Figure 3 illustrates a sectional view taken Figure 4: illustrates a fragmental sectional view taken on line H of Figure 3. I Figure 5 illustrates a detail view of the propelling wheel, one of the side plates thereof being removed.
Referring to the drawings in deta1l, the toy includes a box-like casing which is formed with a rear wall 5 and a front wall 6, the walls being spaced apart'to provide a compartment for the operating mechanism. The front wall 6 is also spaced from the front edges of the side and end walls 7 of Specification of Letters Patent.
the casing to sand causes the wheel to retween.

rout of the casing, the latter compartment being designed t o'accommodate the figures, V
forming a part of the toy, and whichin th present showing are indicated by the'refer ence character 9. 1 '1 1 Each of these figuresincludes a'movable body portion 10 which is pivotally connected to the leg portions lliof the figure as by means of the curved arms 12, there being I provided an enlargement 13 on each ofthe arms for connecting the arms tothe body" portions 10 so that the: 10 will move with the arms.
Each of these armsldexten'ds do nwithjan operat wardly and has connection Pi vide a compartment 8 at the I dy rter ing rod 14; as at 15, the intermediate portion I of the rOd being fOrmed intoap'air'of loops 15 which receive the lower extremitiesof'the spaced arms 16,) the upper. portions of the arms being pivotally 'conn'ected to the front wall by means' of the pivot 17. Thusit'will be seen that 'the'armslo are free tooscillate, which oscillation results in a relative move:
ment of the rod 1a to accomplish,themovement of the body portions. of the figures;
' A supportingbracket-18 has'i'tsendssecured tothe front wall 6 as bymeans OftheI screws 19, the "bracket 18 having a: portion.
thereof disposed in spaced relation with the front wall6 ofthe casing to permit the pro pelling ,wheel 20 tofbe positioned therebes pockets, and as shown, a central shaft 23 supports the propelling wheel within the bracket member.)
Carried by the propelling wheel 20 and mounted eocentrically thereon, is a laterally extending operating pin 24 that-movesf'between the arms 16, contacting with the arms to .move thesame laterally and simultane- This propelling wheel comprises .side plates '21 andangular plates 22 forming This gutter '25 also has its upper end closely engaging one wall of the casing,
while the opposite end thereof is disposed In the operation of the device, the casing is tilted to cause the sand to move within thejtrough 27, whereupon the casing is moved toan upright position with the result that the sandy gravitate's through the opening 28 and falls into one of the pockets of the propellingwheel. When the weight of the sand within the pocket is. suiiicient to overbalance the wheel, the wheel is moved, causing thepin 24: to oscillate the arms'lo which in turn impart reciprocatory movemerit to the rod 14 and arms 12,;with the result that the body portions 10 move to simulate. persons hammering. It is of course understood that as the propelling wheel moves, the sand is deposited in the lower side of the casing.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed asnew is 1 a 1. In a toy, a casing-including front and rearwalls, pivoted members supported by the front wall, a propelling wheel, a-m'emher including a pairof arms pivotally connected to the propelhng wheel, a pin extending from the propelling wheel and adapted'to contact with the arms, curved arms having connection with the pivoted members, ahrod connecting the curved arms to move the same, a gutter disposed between the front and rear walls, said gutter having an opening to permit the passage of sand therefrom, said opening adapted to direct sand to the propelling wheel for rotating the same, and a bracket for supporting the propelling wheel.
' 2. In a toy, a casing including front and rear walls, pivoted members connected to bers, a rod connecting the curved arrns spaced arms pivotally supported by the front wall, meanscarried by the propelling wheel and contacting with the spaced arms for moving the arms, means for connecting the spaced arms and rod, and means for directing sand to the propelling wheel for op erating the same.
' 3. In a toy, a casingincluding front and rear walls, a bracket member supported by the front wall, a propelling wheel supported by the bracket, a gutter supported by the front wall, said gutter including a trough, said trough having an opening, pivoted members supported adjacent to the front wall, pivoted arms for supporting the pivoted members, a rod having connection with, the arms, and means carried by the propellingwheel and contacting with the pivoted arms for causing the operation of the pivoted members.
In testimony'thatwe claim the foregoing as our own, we have hereto affixed our signatures in the presence of two witnesses.
