IMPROVEMENT IN COMBINED WHISTLES AND FLAGS.
Specificafion forming part of Letters Patent No. 174,845, dated March 14, 1876; application filed February 19, 1876.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM R. PARK, of Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia. and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a certain new and useful Combined Toy Flag and Whistle; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the .art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification, in which- Figure l is a longitudinal vertical section with the flag exposed to view. Fig. 2 is a plan view with the flag concealed.
The object of my invention is to provide a combined Toy, consisting of a flag and whistle, the former being arranged to be concealed within the latter in such manner that it may bereadily withdrawn a sufficient distance to be displayed whenever'desired.
Referring to the accompanying drawing, A designates a whistle of the usual or any suitable construction, having a mouth-piece, a, and, if desired, air-vent a. Bis a staff, arranged to slide in the bore or longitudinal passage of the whistle, to which is secured a flag or equivalent streamer, pendant, or signal. The end of said staff is formed or provived with a collar or shoulder, O, which abuts againstor enters (either or both) a hollow plug, D, in the end of the whistle. By this means the staff may be drawn out far enough to permit the flag to be unfurled without allo wing it to come out altogether. E represents an acorn, for which any other ornamental device may be substituted, of larger diameter than the passage in the plug D, so as to prevent the staff from getting out of convenient reach of the fingers within the whistle A.
Instead of the described devices for holding the stafl' B in the end of the whistle, when drawn out as described, a spring or other means of retention may be employed, or the collar C may be Wholly dispensed with, permitting the staff to be drawn entirely out of the whistle, and then reversed, so that the device E, which would then require to be made of suitable shape and size, may be fastened in the end of the whistle or in the passage of the plug D. To insert'the flag in the whistle, it must be first furled on its staff. The whistle may be sounded as well when the flag is concealed as when it is withdrawn. When the flag is displayed, however, the toy will be much more attractive and pleasing to the youthful instinct than when hidden from view.
I claim The toy herein described, consisting of a whistle, A, and rod or staff B, (for holding a flag or signal,) said staff being constructed and arranged to be concealed in the whistle, and fastened in the end of the latter, substantially as specified.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 15th day of February, 1876.
WILLIAM R. PARK.
