UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOHN D. PAYNE, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
FIGURE WHEELED TOY.
This invention relates to toys and in particular to a toy having a mechanical movement which will be attractive in appearance and will hold the interest of'a child playing with the same.
A particular object of the invention is to provide a toy in the nature of a vehicle which can be drawn across the ground and upon which is seated, a clown in a chair, the chair being tiltable so that during travel of the vehicle, it will appear as though the clown, by the swinging motion of his legs, is attempting to keep his balance on the chair.
A still further object of the invention is to rovide a toy vehicle having seated thereon a figure which will have a balancing motion, thereto to attract and amuse the child playing with the toy and also to provide a toy which is simple of construction, can be made up at small cost and which is light and can be drawn by a small child.
To enable others skilled in the art to fully comprehend ,the underlyingfeatures of my invention that they may embody the same in the various modifications in structureand relation contemplated, a drawing depicting a preferred form has been annexed as a part of this disclosure and in such drawings, similar reference characters denote corresponding parts throughout all the views, of which,
Figure 1 is a- View in perspective of my improved toy, the same illustrating the position of the clown and is positioned on the chair during a tilting movement of the latter.
Figure 2 is a View in sectional elevation of the rear half of the toy, the same being arranged to show the construction of the operating part, and
Figure 3 is a section taken on the line 3-3 of Figure 2, showing how the rear wheel axle is bent to provide an eccentric which imparts the proper motion to the movable part of the toy.
Referring to the drawings in detail, 5 in- I dicates the body of the vehicle which is composed of the sides 6, top 7 and rear end 8, the latter of which encloses an enlarged housing 9, the front wall 10 of which is inclined as illustrated in Figure 2 and arranged to give the appearance of a support against which a chair 11 would lean. The sides of the body 6 provide journals for a front axle 12 which carry at their ends, the supporting a draw string may be secured so that a child may draw the toy along the ground.
The top 7 of the toy adjacent the wall 10 I of the housing 9 is provided with the downwardly turned cars 17 to which is pivoted as at 18, the lower ends of the chair legs 18, the chair being indicated as before mentioned by the numeral 11 and having soldered or otherwise secured thereto theiigure of a clown 19. This clown is provided with pivoted legs 20 and the legs are provided with inturned cars which are disposed inwardly of the body of the clown, the ears being indicated by the numeral 21 and being arranged for engagement with the ends of a flexible member, such as cord 22, which connects the legs of the clown with the upper end of a rock lever 28. This rock lever is carried on the offset or eccentric portion 24 of the rear axle 12, this axle carrying at its extremities, the wheels 15, which are larger than the wheels 13 and are suitably decorated, the whole toy to give the appearance of a circus wagon and when drawn along the floor, it is quite evident that an oscillatory movement will be given the rock lever 23 which will cause the chair to revolve on its pivot points 18 and also cause the legs 20 of the clown to be drawn upwardly on their pivot points 25.
In order to secure the rock arm 23 in place, I have provided the upturned cars 26 on. the cross piece 27 which gives added strength to the bottom edges of the side pieces 6 adjacent the rear wheels and through which the lower end of the lever 23 passes, the same being pivoted on a suitable pin held in the ears 26, the lower end of the rock arm 23 is slotted as at 29 to allow for an up and down motion thereof when the same is carried around in its eccentric circle by the offset 24 of the shaft 12. The weight of the clowns legs and the offset position of the body with regard to the pivot point 18 of the chair, will cause the same to have a tendency to move to the position illustrated in outline in Figure 2. When the upper end of the rock arm 23 is in its forward position the legs will hang down but it will be drawn back again and the legs will be thrown up when the rock arm has heenfthrown to the position illustrated in Figure?) in full lines.
It is quite evident, therefore, that a toy of this character can be constructed very cheaply, having few parts and will not readily get out of order.
It is also evident that a toy of this character will provide amusement for a child, can be drawn across the ground and will simulate the appearance of a clown trying to maintain his balance on a chair.
It is evident, also, that the faster the toy is drawn along the ground, the faster will be parts without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent is 1. A toy comprising a Wheeled vehicle,a chair pivotally mounted thereon, a figure secured to the chair, legs pivoted to said figure,
means for imparting to the chair a rocking motion, and said means being connected to the legs of the figure and arranged to impart thereto a swinging movement upon a rocking motion of the chair.
2. A toy comprising a wheeled vehicle body," an axle for some of the wheels having an offset portion therein, a pivoted lever to which said offset portion imparts movement, a chair pivoted to the body, a figure on the chair, legs pivoted to the figure and a connection passing through the body joining the legs and the lever whereby a tilting movement of the chair and a pivotal movement of the legs are provided when the lever is operated.
In testimony whereof ll afix my signature.
