Application filed June 2,
To all whom it concern:
Be it known that we, ALVIN J. SWARTZ and CLYDE O. Roosn, citizens of the United States.
and residents, respectivel of Willard, in the county of Huron and tate of Ohio, and Norwalk, in the count of Huron and State of Ohio, have invente certain new and useful Improvements in Balloon Toys, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
'lhe invention'relates to improvements in balloon toys, and one of the objectsof the in- 1 an erect position. 7
Other and further objects and advantages of the invention will appear in the follow- .ing detailed description, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which: I
Figure lis a perspective view of the balloon toy imitating a fanciful figure of a human.
F i re 2 is a vertical section through a leg and oot of-the fanciful figure.
Flgure 3 is a perspective view of the-balloon toy imitating a fanciful figure of a pig.
F1 re 4 is a vertical section through a leg and cot of the fanciful figure. I
Referrm to the drawings more in detail and partic arly to Figures 1 and 2, numeral 1 mdicates a conventional balloon made preferably of thin rubber, and havin fea-' tures thereon so that it will represent a anciful figure of a human. The balloon is also provided with the conventional valve 2, pre senting means for iating and deflating the balloon.
The legs and feet of the figure are indicated by numerals 3 and 4, respectively. These lo and feet are preferably molded rubber, t ough they may be constructed of 7 any suitable material and are attached to I the balloon bag in any desired manner, as by rubber cement. The legs are made hollow and the walls thereof are preferably very,
thin at the top where they are connected "to 1922. Serial No. 585,9.
the balloon bag, and gradually increase in thickness toward the foot. Weights 5, 5 are attached to the feet in any in the form illustrated t e weights being molded in the rubber foot, one weight bein arranged in the toe and the other in the bee thereof.
flating valve 7 representing its tail. lhe legs and feet 8 and 9, respectively, are referably molded rubber though they may e constructed of any suitable material and are attached to the balloon bag in any mannor that may be found desirable, as by rubber cement. The walls of the legs are very thin at the point where they are attached to the balloon, and gradually lncrease in thickness toward the foot. In the preferred condesired manner,
Referring to Figures 3 and 4, numeral 6 indicates an ordinary toy balloon representing the body of a pig, having the features of a indicated thereon, and the inflating an e struction of the toy a weight 10 is molded in c the foot. I It is to be understood. thatone of the material features of this invention consists in so desi' 'ngand constructing thetoy that it wil always assume a predetermined- 'fact that the width of the inflated body is as y ractice the use'of a weight has dy portion is extremely only slightly greater than the width of the base on which it is carried.
The figures may be knocked over and bounced about, but the will always alight ontheir feet. The evice is also well adapted to use as awater toy, for the figures will float on the sufaoe, and the weights-will cause them to always assume an erect position.
The invention is not limited, of course, to
any articular figure, for as previously eta the invention may be used in connection with figures of humans, animals, fish,birds,etc.. l

4. A balloon toy, including an inflatable bag, a plurality of combined legs and feet 25 attached to said bag, and a weight provided aeoaaao in the heel and toe of each of'said feet, the construction and arrangement being such that the toy will always assume an erect position on any surface.
5. A balloon toy, including a conventional toy balloon designed to represent a figure, a plurality of combined legs and feet attached to said balloon, said legs and feet being made of rubber, or other suitable material, and a weight secured in each of said feet, the construction and arrangement being such that the toy will always assume an erect position on any surface.
