UNITED STATES MITSUTARO NAKAMURA, OF CHICO, CALIFORNIA.
FIGURE W'I-IEELED TOY.
Application filed March 25, 1925. Serial No. 18,284.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, Mrrso ARO NAKA- MURA, a subject of the Emperor of Japan, residing at Chico, in the county of Butte and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Figure YJheelcd Toys, of which the tollowing is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in toys and has particular reference to a toy ada )ted to be pulled behind the user and one which will represent a duel: having wings which flap.
Another object of this invention is to produce a toy of this character which is simple to construct and therefore cheap to manufacture.
A further object is to produce a toy wherein the flapping action of the wings will be caused by the pulling action.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent during the course of the following description.
In the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, and in which like nun'ierals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Figure I is a side elevation of my toy,
Figure II is a bottom plan view thereof,
Figure 111 is a vertical cross-section, and
Figure IV is an enlarget detail view of the head of the duck showing the pivoted bill.
In the creation of a toy, particularly one simulating abird, it i* essential to cause the parts to move in a manner similar to that of the live bird. I have therefore provided means whereby the wings and the bill will be actuated when the toy is drawn over a given surface, such as the ground.
In the accompanying drawings wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown a preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral designates the top piece of a wagon having an opening 6 therethrough, from which depend brackets 7 and 8 in which axles 9 and 11 are rotatably mounted. These axles in turn have mounted thereon wheels as shown at 12, 13, 1'1 and 1.6.
The axle 9 has positioned thereon a plurality of radially disposed wires 17 upon the ends of which are hainners 18 which in turn are adapted to strike a bell 19 secured by a bracket 21 to the top piece 5.
Supported upon the top piece 5 is positioned a figure simulating a duck and designated by the numeral 22. This duck is hollow as shown in Figure I, so as to provide a chamber 23 which connects with the opening 6 in the top piece 5. i
'lo this duck 22 is hingedly supported as at 3A and 26, wings 27 and 28, respectively.
nach of these wings is provided with a lever as shown at 29 and 31, to the free ends of which are secured cords 32 and 33 which are in turn reaved through eyes 84 and 36 and are jointed as at 37 to a cord 38, which cord passes beneath the top piece 5 and is of sui'lic-ient length for the person drawing the toy to use it as a pulling cord.
The cord 39 is secured to the front of the top piece 5 as shown at 4:1 and has its opposite end secured as at 122 to the cord 38.
The lower portion of the bill is designated by the numeral 43 and is pivoted as at d4, while a lever 46 has a counter-weight 47 attached to the end thereof.
The operation of my toy is as follows 2- Assuming that the parts are in the position shown in Figure I and it is desired to draw the same over a surface, such as the floor the person using the toy grasps the free ends of the cord 38 and starts to pull. The first ac ion is that this cord will lengthen out and in so lengthening out the levers 29 and 31 will be moved to their dotted line position. of Lcigure III and at the same time, the wings 3 and 38 will also be moved to the dotted line position. The rotation of the axle 9 will cause the hammers 18 to strike the bell 19. The weight of the wings in endeavor-lug to drop, will cause the toy to work forward on the cord 38. This will again place the slack in the cord 30. The retarding L ction of the hammers 18 striking the bell 19 will again cause a tightening on the cord 38 which will again raise the wings. in other words this arrangement causes the toy to move with a somewhat jerky action, thus flapping the wings and at the same time jerking the device, which will cause the bill l3 to move upon its pivot 44 as the some is necessarily balanced by the counterweight 4-7.
It is to be understood that the form of my invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same, and that various changes in the shape, sine, and arrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claim.
Having thus described my invention, I claim In a toy of the character described, a V wheeled carriage, a figure simulating a bird positioned on said carriage, wings pivoted to the opposite sides of said figure,-:a-lever secured to each oi said wings, said lever extending inwardly and upwardly With respect to the body of said figure, a cord secured to each of said levers and extending downwardly Within said figure, eyes positioned in each side of said figure in such a manner as to receive the ends of said cords therethrough,a second'cord secured to the ends of said .first mentioned cords, said second mentioned cord extending to a point beyond said carriage and a third cord secured to said second-mentioned cord and to said carriage for the purpose of limiting the amount of pull ofnsaid second mentioned cord With 20 respect to said carriage.
In testimony whereofI aflix my s gnature.
