The present invention relates to new and useful improvements in coaster toys and has for its primary object to provide, in a manner as hereinafter set forth, a device of this character embodying a novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts through the medium of which a person, when skating, can sit and coast when desired, as when going downhill or when being pushed by another person.
Another important object of the invention is to provide a coaster toy embodying a novel construction and arrangement of brake which may be conveniently actuated by the operator of the toy.
Other objects of the invention are to provide a device of the aforementioned character which will be simple in construction, strong, durable, attractive and which may be manufactured at low cost.
All of the foregoing and still further objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent from a study of the following specification, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings wherein like characters of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, and wherein:-
Figure 1 is a view in side elevation, showing a coaster toy in accordance with the present invention in use.
Figure 2 is a view in top plan of the coaster toy.
Figure 3 is a view in vertical longitudinal section through the coaster toy.
Figure 4 is a detail View in perspective of the brake.
Figure 5 is a detail view in perspective of the brake operating lever.
Figure 6 is a fragmentary perspective view, showing the intermediate portion of the leg engaging cross member.
Figure '7 is a view in horizontal section of a modified form of the invention.
' Figure 8 is a view in vertical longitudinal section through the modification.
Referring now to the drawings in detail, it will be seen that the reference numeral 1 designates a tubular shaft having secured in one end portion thereof and projcting therefrom an angular yoke 2 between the free end portions of the legs of which is journaled a rubber tired supporting wheel 3. The bight portion of the yoke 2 is formed to provide a plug 4 which fits into the tubular shaft 1. The plug 4 is secured in the shaft 1 by a pin 5.
The other end portion of the tubular shaft 1 is flattened and bifurcated, as at 6, and mounted on the outer sides of the bifurcations 6 are downwardly and forwardly projecting angular brackets '7 between the free end portions of which an upstanding lever 8 is pivotally mounted, as at 3, for swinging movement. 8 terminates in a handle portion 10.
The reference numeral 11 designates guides which are fixed, at longitudinally spaced points, in the tubular shaft 1.
Mounted for longitudinal sliding movement in the guides 11 and in the plug portion 4 of the yoke 2 is a rod 12 which terminates, at its rear end, in a yoke 13 which is operable in the yoke 2. Mounted transversely in the yoke 13 is a pin 14 upon which a grooved brake roller 15 is journaled for operative engagement with the supporting wheel 3. The pin 14 projects laterally beyond the legs of the yoke 13 and has its end portions engaged for longitudinal movement in slots 16 which are provided therefor in the yoke 2. A coil spring 1'7 encircles the rod 12 in the tubular shaft 1 and has one end engaged with the plug portion i of the yoke 2 and its other end engaged with a collar 18 on said rod 12 for yieldingly urging the brake roller 15 toward retracted or inoperative position.
At its forward end, the rod 12 terminates in a reduced end portion 19 which is engaged in an opening 20 provided therefor in an intermediate portion of the levers. The reference numeral 21 designates a Washer which is mounted on the reduced portion 19 for engagement with the rear side of the lever 8, said washer resting against the shoulder which is formed on the rod 12 by the reduced portion 19. A pin 22 retains the rod 12 in the opening 20. J ournaled between the free end portions of the bifurcations 6 of the shaft 1 a grooved roller 23 which is engaged with the rod 12. It will be noted that the opening 20 is in the form of a longitudinal slot in the lever 8, thus permitting said lever to swing in an arc and impart a reciprocating movement to the rod Mounted for swinging movement between the bifurcations 6 of the tubular shaft 1 is a leg engagingcrossmember which is designated generally by the reference numeral 24. The cross member 24 comprises duplicate half sections 25 having downturned side abutting cars 26 on their inner ends pivotally secured, as at 27, between the bifurcations 6. The outer end portions of the sections 25 of the cross member 24 are curveddownwardly. The sections 24 are connected together by a metallic bar 28 extending across the top of said sections and riveted or otherwise suitably secured thereto. Of course, the end portions At its free end, the lever of the bar 28 are curved downwardly in conformity with the corresponding portions of the sections 25.
Mounted for longitudinal adjustment on the tubular shaft 1 is a seat post 29, said post being vertical when the device is in use. The reference numeral 30 designates a seat which is adjustably secured, as at 31, on the upper end of the post 29.
Briefly, the use of the device is as follows:-
When the skater desires to coast, he straddles the upper or forward end portion of the tubular.
as clearly-illustrated in Figure 1 of the draw-.
To operate the brake it is only necessary to swing the lever 8 rearwardly, thus shifting the rod 12 against the tension of the spring 17 for engaging the comparatively small roller.15 with the periphery of the supporting wheel 3. As will be seen in Figure 3 of the drawings, the brake roller 15 moves tangentially with respect tothe wheel 3. The pivotal mounting of the cross member-2 l permits the use of the device with the shaft 1 at various angles but with assurance that said cross member 24 will rest properly and comfortably on the legs of the skater.
' In the form of the invention illustrated in Figures 7 and 8 of the drawings, the reference numeral 32 designates a tubular shaft having its end portions flattened and bifurcated, as at 33 and34. A supporting wheel 35 is journaled between the bifurcations as and is engageable by a brake shoe 36 which is slidably mounted between said bifurcations. A pin 37 extends trans- .versely through the brake shoe 36 and has its end portions engaged for longitudinal movement in slots 38 which are provided therefor in the bifurcations 34.
The reference numeral 47 designates a transverse leg engaging cross memberhaving depending from an intermediate portion thereof an ear 48 which is pivotally secured, as at 49, between the upper portions of the bifurcations 33, thus mounting the cross member 4'7 for swinging adjustment.
' The end portions of the cross member 47 are which is contracted in a manner to grip said shaft for frictionally securing the post in adjusted position thereon through the medium of a nut equipped bolt 54. The upper end portion of the post 52 is bifurcated and mounted for swinging adjustment thereon, as at 55 is a seat 56. The post 52 extends at such an angle with respect to the tubular shaft 32 as to be in a substantially vertical position when the device is in use. The reference numeral 5'7 designates a socket member which projects rearwardly from the post 52 for receiving a stick, pole or other suitable pushing implement when the user of the device wishes to be pushed by another person.
-As will be apparent, the manner of using the device shown in Figures 7 and 8 of the drawings is the same as that form of the invention illustrated in Figures 1 to 6, inclusive. It will also be apparent, it is believed, that the brake mechanism shown in Figures 7 and 8 operates in substantially the same manner as the corresponding mechanism shown in Figures 1 to 6, inclusive.
' It is believedthat the many advantages of a coaster toy constructed in accordance with the present invention will be readily understood, and although the preferred embodiments of the invention are as illustrated and described, it is to be understood that further modifications and changes in the details of construction'and in the combination and arrangement of parts may be resorted to which will fall within the scope of the invention as claimed.
