FIGURE EELE res Application filed June 19,
This invention relates to a figure wheeled toy of that type including supporting wheels and adapted to be pulled along the ground by means of a string.
One of the objects of the invention is to provide atoysimulatingaduck or other fowl or animal the construction of which includes an eccentric which is mounted to travel on thcsupporting surface for imparting an oscillating movement to portions of the figure so as td render the toy more attractive by simulating in a more or less exaggerated manner distinctive movei'nen ts of portions of the fowl "or the like of which the toy is an imitation.
A further object is to provide a structure of this character which is sin' ple and compact in construction and capable of with: standing considerable rough handling such as can be expected from a child.
it-h the foregoing and other objects'in viewwhich will appear as the 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 of the in vention herein disclosed may be made within the scope of what is claimed without dew parting from the spirit of theinvention.
In the accompanying drawings the preferred form of the invention has been shown.
In said drawings,
Figure 1 is a plan view of the toy.
Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectiontherethrough.
Figure El is a section on line 33 Figure 2.
Figure 4 is a section on line l l Figure 2.
Referring to the figures by characters reference 1 designates the body of the toy cut out to approximately define the back and head of a duck altl ioiiigh it is to be understood that the body can be shaped to simulate some other fowl or small animal. In the present instance the head portion 2 is provided with a stationary hill 3 integraltherewith and a deep groove 4 is formed longitudinally in thebody and extends thereiiito from its lower edge, the upper or inner being in line with the bottom surface of the hill 3. The front portion of the body is notched at its lower edge as shown at 5 so as to lit within a central recess 6 formed in the top of a cross strip or axle 7. Pins 8 are extended from the ends of this axle and 1923;. Serial n. 117,081.
constitute journals for the front supporting whcels 9. The rear portion of the body, is likewise seated within a notch 10 provided in the central portion of a cross strip (H) or axle l1 and pins 12 or the like are extended from the ends of this axle, providing ournals for the rear supporting wheels lg. l lxtending transversely of the head port on 2 isan opening-let intersected by a bore 15 extending upwardly into said head portion from the groove 4. A stem 16 is loosely mounted in this bore and is engaged by a transverse pin 1'? loosely mounitedin the opening 14. Disks 18 of any desired contour are carried by the outer ends of pin 17 andsimulate eyes. These disks are located close to the sides of the head portion 2 but are mounted to move freely relative thereto. The lower end of the stem 16 projects nor- 79 nially into the groove 4 An opening 19 is provided in the topof the body back of. the head portion 2 and con imunicates with groove 4. Extending transversely over this opening is a cross strip 20 attachedto wings 21 locatedat opposits sides of the body 1 and held thereto by suitable pivot devices 22in the'forni of small screws, nails or the like. Under normal conditions these wings are supported by contact of the strip 20 with the top of the body l. y v i A cross pin 23 is extended transversely across the groove l beneath the back of the head portion 2 and mounted to oscillate on this pin is a strip 24 having a longitudinal slot 25 in which is journaled an eccentric wheel 26. The periphery of this wheel can, desired, be provided with a rubber tire 27 but this is not essential.
The front end portion of the strip 24 is provided with abill 28 extending forwardly and normally spaced from and overhung by the bill 3. strip can be inclined downwardly and backwardly from the bill 28 so as to work freely back of the axle 7.
The rear portion of strip 24 has a-stem 29 projecting therefrom and carrying an integral tail 30 which is supported beyond the back end of the body 1 and can be of any contour desired. A lifting member 31 in the form of an inverted U-shaped wire or any other suitable device is carried by the strip 2% and extends loosely into the opening 19.
A string used for pulling the toy is adapted to be attached to an eye 32 on the axle 7 or to be otherwise fastened to the toy.
When the toy is drawn forwardly the fifth wheel or eccentric 26will rotate and cause strip 2-1; to oscillate within the groove 4. Each time the rear portion of strip 24is raised the tail will also be raised while the bill 28 will move downwardly and'stem 1.6 with tlieeyes 18 will likewise descend relative to the head portion; During the completion of rotation of wheel 26 the tail 30 will move downwardly, stem 16 will be raised and the bill 28 will come against hill 3. It will be noted, furthermore, that as strip 24- is oscillated thelifting device 31 will come against strip 20 and raise wings 21 after which said rings will gravitate to their normal positions. The striking oi strip 20 on the back of the body 1 and the impact of bill 28 againstbill 3 will produce a sound simulating the quack of a duck. Thus as the toy is'moved the same will be rendered very attractive because of the moving bill, tail, wings and eyes and the sound produced.
What isclaimed is:
l. figure wheeled toy including a body having aheadportion, there being a bottom recess-within the body, wheels supporting the body, a member comprisinga part of the figure pivotally mounted within the body and having an extensionat one end movable relative to the head portion, and an eccentric ground engaging wheel journaled on and supporting one end portion of the pivoted member. I i o r r 2. A figure wheeled toy including a body havinga head portion, there being a longitudinal recess within the bottom portion of the body, wheels supporting the body, a member. comprising a part of the figure piv:
otally mountedwithinthe recess, an 6Xt11- sion at one end thereof movable relative to the head portion, a tail projecting fromthe other end of the member, and an eccentric ground engaging wheel journaled within the pivoted member.
3. A figure wheeled toy including a body.
. with andmovable relative to the head por tion, and an eccentric ground engaging wheel journaldin the pivoted member. a
5. A figure wheeled toy including a recessed body having a head portion atone end, a member comprising a part of the figure .pivotally mounted in the recessed body having extensions at the ends thereof, one of said extensions cooperating with the head portion and the other extension constituting a tail, and an eccentric ground cmgaging wheel journaled in said memberb. A figure wheeled toy inchuling a recessed body having a head portion, a member comprising a part of the figure pivotally mounted within the body, an extension at one end thereof cooperating :with the head portion, connected eyes movable relative to the head portion and normally maintained by gravity in one positiomnn eccentric ground engaging wheel j ournaled in the pivoted member for oscillating the same, and means actuated by the pivoted member for shifting the eyes out of normal position.
7. A figure wheeled toy including areeessed body having a head portion, wings pivotally connected to the body, a connection between the wings, a member compris ing a part oi the figure pivotally mounted in the body, an extension at one end thereof cooperating with the head portion, an ec' centric ground engaging wheel journaled in said member, for oscillating the same, and means actuated by the oscillation ofsaid member for engaging the wing connection to raise and lower theiwings.
8;A toy oi -the character describedoomprising a body representing a duck and in.- cluding spaced side members and a station.- my bill, a combined tail and bill member pivoted between the side members, means for littingsaid member upon its pivot incident to the movement of the toy over the ground and allowing said member to subsequently gravitate to its nm'mal position, wing members pivoted on the opposite sides of said body, and a member connecting said wing members and disposed in the path of n'iovement of said combined tail and bill member, whereby said wings are acluatcul by the last mentioned member.
In testimony that I claim the :ioregoing as my own, I have hereto aiiixcd my signature.
