VOICE DEVICE FOR DRINKING-WETTING DOLLS Filed Jan. 26, 1950 Patented Jan. 23, 1951 VOICE DEVICE FOR D DOL RINKING-WETTING LS Leonard J. Rashleigh and Orby B. Crowell, Toronto, Ontario, Canada Application January 26, 1950, Serial No. 140,667
1 Claim.
Hollow rubber dolls of the drinking-wetting type have been made with a drinking tube leading from the mouth to a suitable point adjacent the back of the doll. Separate voice devices have been provided which are actuated when the doll is squeezed. This invention is intended to provide a voice device housed within the drinking tube. Further objects and advantages appear in the specification and claim.
In the drawing, Fig. 1 is a front View of a drinking-wetting doll; Fig. 2 is a section through the doll showing the drinking tube; Fig. 3 is an enlarged section through the section of the drinking tube housing the voice device; Fig. 4 is'a section on line 4-4 of Fig. 3, and Fig. 5 is a section on line 5-5 of Fig. 3.
In the drawing there is shown a drinking-wetting doll having a hollow rubber body I on which are swivelled arms 2, legs 3, and a head 4, all of the swivelled parts being hollow rubber and the head at least communicating with the body through its swivel joint. The mouth 5 has an orifice 6 receiving the. end I of a nipple 8 on a nursing bottle 9. On the inside wall of the mouth around the orifice 6 is a socket I receiving a drinking tube II which discharges at a suitable point adjacent the back of the doll. Water fed to the doll flows out through an opening l2 in the back, wetting a diaper l3. The doll so far described is, or may be, of common construction.
In the tube H is a voice device comprising a thin walled resilient rubber tubing I4 snugly fitting the bore of the drinking tube and having a tapered flattened end extending downstream as regards the flow of water and terminating in lips l6 spaced to serve as vibrating reeds when air is forced upstream into the flattened end l5 producing a tone suitably representing the dolls voice. The corners I! of the lips are preferably rounded so the central part of the lips I6 is always out of contact with the bore of the drinking tube. Water fed to the doll flows readily down through the flattened end l5 of the voice device.
If the voice device were reversed in the drinking tube so the flattened end extended upstream instead of downstream, water fed to the doll would tend to collapse the lips I6 and prevent, or at least seriously restrict the flow.
With this construction, the voice device'is housed within the drinking tube, out of sight and protected from tampering. Being flexible, the device cannot be injured by squeezing the drinking tube. In use, the thin walled tube 14 of the voice device is in tight engagement with the inner surface of the drinking tube so an effectively rigid support is provided for the flattened end l5 which is free to vibrate within the drinking tube to produce the voice.
The voice device may conveniently be made of a latex of natural or synthetic rubber or may be made of rubber like material, the term rubber being used to designate such materials.
What we claim as new is:
In a hollow rubber doll of the drinking-wetting type having a mouth for feeding water, and an internal flexible drinking tube leading from the mouth into the interior of the doll, a voice device for the doll comprising a length of resilient rubber tubing telescoped within and snugly fitting the bore of the drinking tube and having a flattened end extending downstream as regards the flow of water through the drinking tube and terminating in spaced lips free to vibrate to produce a voice-like noise upon flow of air upstream through the drinking tube as the doll is squeezed.
