1 Claim. (01. 188-44) This invention relates to brakes especially adapted for childrens toys and has for the primary object, the provision above stated character which will be efficient in operation, will permit a child to stop or have complete control of a toy of the wheel type and consists of a minimum number of parts to permit manufacturing and sale costs to be kept at a minimum upon toys when thus equipped.
With these and other objects in viewv this invention consists in certain novel features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter more fully described and claimed.
For a complete understanding of my invention, reference is to be had to the following description and accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a side elevation illustrating a toy with a brake applied thereto and constructed in accordance with my invention.
Figure 2 is a front elevation illustrating a toy.
Figure 3 is a bottom planview illustrating the mounting of the brake to the toy.
Figure 4 is a perspective view illustrating the brake removed from the toy. I
Referring in detail tothe drawing, the numeral v1 indicates a 'childstoy and of the type wherein three wheels are employed, a pair of wheels, as shown at 2, being arranged at the rear ofthe main frame 3, while the third wheel is indicated by the character fork5 mounted to an upright 6 of the main frame. The steering fork carries the usual hand grips 7 whereby the fork may be turned for the purpose of steering the front or third wheel. The main frame 3 has mounted thereon a suitable. platform 8 on which a child may stand when riding the toy.
The foregoing description relates to a construction of toy forming the subject matter of a co-pending application and to invention is applied.
,into non-brake applying position.
* ing brake shoes are 4 and is carried by a steering which the present at 12, and pivoted to the bracket 10 and interposed between the bracket 10v and the collar 1'7 is a coil spring 18 for the purpose of normally urging the rod 13 forwardly The rod 13 rearwardly of the bracket 10 is inclined upwardly to extend through the mainframe 3 and carries a U-shaped bracket 19 and the'latter has secured thereto a brake beam or rod. 20 which extends transversely of the main frame and slides upon the upper edge thereof Grooved rollers 21 formjournaledv on the beam 20 and arranged in advance and in alinement with the rear wheels 2 so that when the rod 13 is moved rearwardly by a. child pressing upon the pedal 16 brings the brake shoes in engagement with the 7 wheels and consequently retards or stops the toy.
While I have shown and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it will be understood that minor changes in construction, combination and arrangement of parts may be made 7 without departing from the spirit and scope of my invention, as claimed. I
Having described the invention, I claim:
In'combination with a toy having a frame supported by wheels and a platform, a brake rod slidably secured to the under side of the platform, tension means to normally urge the brake rod in one. direction, a lever pivoted to the platform and the frame, a brake beam connected to the rod andslidable upon the frame, and grooved rollers journaled on the brake beam and arranged in advance andin alinement with the wheels.
