lApplication led January 12, 19277. Serial No. 160,707.
My present invention has reference to awheeled toy and is inthe nature ofa coaster whereby the operator places one foot on a step or stirrup associated with the improve# ment and propels the device by stepping on-S the ground with his other foot until sui ficient momentum is impartedV to the wheel Vof the improvement to causethe same to be propelled for a considerable distance. Y
The object of the invention is the provision of a wheeled toy for this purpose that is characterized by simplicity in construction, cheapness in manufacture, ease in operation, and thorough eiliciency in use. y 15 V To the attainment of the above recited objects, the improvement residesv in the construction, combinationv and operative associationy of parts, a satisfactory embodiment of which is disclosed by the accompanying. drawings. l f
Inthe drawings: Y l y Y Figure 1 is a side elevation of a wheeled toy in accordance with this invention. Figure 2 is a face view thereof. ,y As disclosed by the drawings my improvement contemplates the employment of a yoke member l between whose sides there is journaled vanaXle 2 for a wheel 3. The -wheel is preferably rubber tired. One of 30 the arms of the yoke is extended a.v distance below the other and bent outwardly and from thenceisli'ghtly upwardly to provide a i step or stirrup 4., Y The connecting element for the arms ofther yoke is in the naturejofl a socket 'that receives Vand has secured 35 vtherein a handle 6. The handle has liXed thereon an angularly `disposed hand grip 7. The user of the toy presses one oot on the .step or stirrup .and permits his other foot 'tor alternatelycontactv thev ground to propel 40 the ltoy until a 'desired ,momentum is obtained, whenthe user raises his second foot from the ground and is" propelled by vthe toy aslong as the wheel thereof'freely rotates. i
' Incoasting' on grades both feet of the oper- 45 n' ator are raised from the Vground and the foot-of the operator not occupying'theA stirrup maybe brought into'contact with the y ground and thus serve as ja' brake.`
i Having described the invention, I claim @of A 'A' wheeled toy includinga'yoke, a ground I i wheel having a'shat-journaledbetween the .arms of the yoke, one arm of the yoke bein'glg. l projected beyond the' "otheruand bent outwardly andSlightly .upwardly'to provide-'a 55.
stirrup, a socket providing the* connecting elementor the arms of the yoke, a handle received and secured in the socket `and a lat-eral hand grip on the handle.
