Patented Apr. 14, 1931 UNITED STATES PATENT- OFFICE CURTIS CARSON, or WALTERIBORO, sonrn oAnonInA, nssienora or ONE-HALF T0 e. E. GUILFORD, or WALTERIBORO, soo'rn CAROLINA TOY Application filed May 13,
The present invention relates to a toy.
In accordance with the invention, a toy is provided including a handle .and a pair of elements secured to the handle by means of flexible elements or cords. By proper manipulation of the handle, the elements may be rotated in opposite directions at the same time. The elements carry sound producing devices, which are actuated by the outward radial movement of the air, due to the action of centrifugal force. The construction of the elements is such that the cords are secured thereto in a simple and reliable manner.
In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, and in which like numerals are employed to designate like parts throughout the same,
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the toy, in use,
Figure 2 is a similar view of one of the rotatable elements,
Figure 3 is a central vertical longitudinal section through the same, and, V
Figure 4 is a transverse section taken on line 4et of Figure 1.
In the drawings, wherein for the purpose of illustration, is shown a preferred embodiment of the invention, the numeral 5 designates a handle which is preferably tubular to receive the ends of flexible elements or cords 6 and 7, which are clamped therein by any suitable means. The cord 7 is longer than the cord 6, as shown.
The numeral 8 designates rotatable elements, which are identical, and a description of one will suflice for both. Each rotatable element 8 may be formed of wood or any other suitable material and embodies a body portion 9, provided witha longitudinal recess 10. At its inner end, this recess leads into a sleeve 11, integral with the body portion 9. The outer end of the flexible element or cord is passed through the recess 11, and is provided at its inner end with a knot 12, preventing separation of these parts. At its outer end, the body portion 9 is provided with a larger sleeve 13, preferably formed integral with the body portion. This sleeve is annular in cross section, and is provided at 1930. Serial No. 452,105.
its outer end with an outwardly projecting annular flange 14.
An air actuated sound producing device is mounted upon the outer end of the sleeve 13 and embodies a disc 15, having an annular ring 16 formed integral therewith, to fit over the flange 14, and the edge of this ring is bent inwardly, producing a locking flange 17, engaging behind the flange 14. The disc 15 is provided with openings .or slots 18, covered by vibratory keys 19, as are used in the ordinary mouth organ, and these keys are at tached to the disc 15, as shown at 20.
In operation, the handle 5 is held in the right hand, and the element 8 secured to the cord 7 is held in the left hand. By proper manipulation of the handle 5, the element 8 secured to the cord 6, is swung or rotated counter-clockwise, and the element 8 secured to the cord 7, is now started in a swinging movement in a clockwise direction, and the rotation of the two elements 8, in opposite directions, is maintained by a proper up and down movement of the handle 5. As the speed of rotation of the two elements 8 increase, the air travels outwardly through the sleeve 13, due to the action of centrifugal force, and the keys 19 are vibrated for producing a humming or musical sound.
Itis to be understood that the form of the invent-ion, herewith shown and described, is to be taken as a preferred example of the same, and that various changes in the shape, size and arrangement of parts, may be resorted to, without departing from the spirit an enlargement outwardly of the sleeve and positioned within the i'ece'ss, a second sleeve formed upon the outer endof the body portion and extending longitudinally of the body portion and having a bore leading into the recess, and an air' actuated sound producing device mounted upon the second sleeve and actuatedIby-the outward radialtravel Qfair through the sleeve.
