TRAFFIC POSITION INDICATING MODEL Filed Oct. 4, 1934 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Inventor Jozm c'fl zwder Q BY Aitp'me'y Patented Nov. 12, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2 Claims.
This invention relates to models used in the connection or" traflic problems in courts and before interested persons, the same being an improvement on my Patent No. 1,973,900, issued September 18, 1934.
The principal object of the present invention over my Patent 1,973,900 resides in the provision of means whereby adjustments of the model vehicle can be obtained more quickly and more minutely.
During the course of the following specification and claims, other important objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent to the reader.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a top plan View of the vehicle placed upon the perforated platform.
Figure 2 is a side elevational View of the model on the platform.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary top plan view of the model with a part thereof in section, taken substantially on line 3-3 of Figure 4.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary detailed sectional view taken substantially on line 4-4 of Figure 1.
Figure 5 is a side elevational view of the stem unit.
Figure 6 is a perspective view of the barrel.
Referring to the drawings wherein like numerals designate like parts, it can be seen that numeral 5 represents the platform which is provided with rows of openings. The rows are preferably an inch apart and the openings one inch apart in each row, this inch spacing being the equivalent of, a foot or any other uniform dimension in actual practice.
Numeral 6 refers generally to the model vehicle which consist of the hood portion 1, the floor portion 8, and the top 9, besides the wheels Ill.
The top 9 and the bottom 8 are provided with openings H and I2 and through these' openings extends the stem l3. The openings 1 I and I2 are considerably larger in diameter than the stem 13 so that the stem will have a range of movement in any direction on a horizontal plane.
The stem 13 has secured to the lower portion thereof a spool-like structure l4 having a flange l5 at its upper end and a relatively larger flange or disk I6 at its lower end, this flange I6 being spaced from the lower extremity of the stem l3, said extremity being in the form of a pin 11.
As before stated, the stem l 3 extends upwardly through the openings II and I2 with the flange l5 bearing against the bottom side of the floor 8. Numeral I8 represents a complementary spool in the form of a. barrel provided with circumferentially extending flanges l9 and 20 at its upper and lower ends respectively. The upper flange i9 bears against the under side of the top 9 while the flange 20 bears against the top of the floor 8. 5
The upper portion of the stem or pin I3 is threaded as at 2| to accommodate a nut 22.
It is preferable that a washer be placed over the opening I l in the top 9 with the threaded portion of the stem projecting therethrough so that 10 the nut 22 will bind against the washer when it is tightened in place to retain the spool-like structures l8 and [4 in clamped engagement with the body of the model vehicle. The model vehicle body will of course be of tin or some 15 other material which will somewhat yield, so that the flanges of the spool-like structures l8 and M will bind against the body when the nut 22 is tightened against the top 9.
Obviously, when adjsutment is desired, the nut 20 22 can be loosened and the model vehicle shifted to any extent on the pin equivalent to the diametrical distance of the openings II and I2, to the end that the vehicle can be adjusted to any extent within the distance between adjacent openings 25 on the board 5.
While the foregoing specification sets forth the invention in specific terms, it is to be understood that numerous changes in the shape, size, and materials may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed hereinafter.
What is claimed is:
1. In a model vehicle having a top and bottom 35 wherein the vehicle is rotatably supported by a pin extending vertically through the top and bottom, said top and bottom being provided With openings therein, said pin extending vertically through the said openings and being of a diame- 40 ter considerably less than the diameter of the said openings, said rod being provided with a supporting pin at its lower end, the upper portion of the rod being threaded and provided with a nut, and a flange on the lower portion of the rod for 45 engagement against the bottom of the body snugly when the nut is tightened agaisnt the top of the body, and a spool-like structure on the rod with its flange-like ends engageable against the bottom and top of the body.
2. In a model vehicle having a top and bottom wherein the vehicle is rotatably supported by a pin extending vertically through the top and bottom, said top and bottom being provided with openings therein, said pin extending vertically through the said openings and being of a diameter considerably less than the diameter of the said openings, said rod being provided with a supporting pin at its lower end, the upper portion of the rod being threaded and provided with a nut, and a flange on the lower portion of the rod for engagement against the bottom of the body snugly when the nut is tightened against the top of the body, said rod being provided with a tube on its lower end portion having a supporting flange at its lower end, said tube being adapted to bear at its upper end against the bottom of the vehicle body and terminate at its flanged end above the lower end of the rod.
