TOY-BALLOON FRAME.
Application filed Decemberflo, 1923, Serial No. 681,767. Renewed June 30, 1326.
This invention relates to improvements in toy balloon frames.
An important object of theinvention is to provide a frame which may be mounted upon the conventional type of toy balloon and simulates the appearance of a dirigible.
A further object of the invention is to provide a balloon frame which may be easily detached from an old balloon and attached to a new one.
A further object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which comparatively simple yet durable and efi cient for the purpose intended.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will be apparent during the course.
of the following description. I
In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same:
Figure 1 is a side elevation of the assembled device as it would appear attached to a balloon,
Figure 2 is a front elevation of the device, and
Figure 3 is a rear elevation of the same.
In the drawing, wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown the preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 5 designates the front frame brace which may be constructed of celluloid or other suitable material and has an aperture 6 in the central portion thereof to permit extension of the balloon valve. A rudder 7 is secured to the lower portion of the brace 5 and tends to guide the balloon in a straigl'it forward direction, while side rudders 8 are secured to the sides of the brace in order to stabilize o the balloon and prevent rotation of same.
The brace 5 has a plurality of extensions 9 formed thereon'which are provided with eyelets 10. A rear bracing member 11 simi-' lar to the front brace 5 is provided with like extensions 12 having eyelets 13 secured near the extremities thereof.
A bracket 14, which has a sleeve 15 formed thereon, is secured to the brace ,11 and is adapted to receive a retaining handle 16. A shaft 17 has a plurality of blades 18 secured thereto and is rotatably mounted within the bracket 14. a
The braces 5 and 11 are secured about the balloon by means of a string 19 which is adapted to penetrate the eyelets l0 and 13 in the braces and retain same about the balloon, said string being preferably elastic.
In use, the device is adapted to be laced about the usual type of balloon which may I be purchased on the market. It is ObViqtiS that the attachment of this device to the conventional type of balloon will greatly enhance the appearance thereof and be a source of great pleasure to the children. Should the balloon upon which the device is mounted be destroyed, it is a simple matterto re move the old balloon casing and insert a new balloon, the device thus being capable of repeated use and longlife.
It is to be understood that the form of my invention herewith shown and described is to be taken as the preferred example of the same, and that various minor changes in the shape, size, and arrangement of, parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of my invention, or the scope of the subjoined claim.
Having thus described my invention, 1 claim: V
A balloon frame comprising concaved end members one of which is provided with outstanding fins, blades rotatably mounted upon the othermember and a lace flexibly connecting the end members together.
