TOY.
SBECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 276,524, dated April 24, 1883.
Application tiled August 11, 1882. (No model.)
To aLLYwhom it may concern:
Beit known that I, GEORGE S. CROSBY, a citizen of the United States of America,resid ing at Bridgeport, in the county of Fairlield and State Ot' Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Toys,
` of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
My invention relates to mechanical toys, and has for its Object to provide a toy to which a rotary and rocking motion is imparted; and with these ends in view my invention consists in the details of construction and combination of elements hereinafter fully described, and then specilically designated by the claim.V
`In Order that those skilled may more fully understand the construction and operationv of my improved device, I will proceed to describe the same in detail, referring by letter to the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specification, in which the ligure is a view in elevation Of my improvement.
A is the body of the device, tO-Which is attached a rod, B, and suspensory hook U. D D are detachable and adjustable balance-arms, provided with weights E E.
The modus operandi of my improvement is as follows: I attach the rod B and weighted arms D D to the body A, and aflix to the free end Of said rod any suitable toy, F. I then mount the hook O upon a standard,G, adapted for the same, and by the adjustment of Athc arms D throw the center Ot' gravity thr'ough the point of suspension. When the toy F is revolved it will acquire a rocking motion, as will be readily understood.
lIl have illustrated my invention by a toy ship counterbalanced by small toy boats, since the rocking motion is especially applicable to toys Ot' this description; but l am enabled to usedtt'erent kinds of toys without departing from the spirit of my invention.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The body A, provided with hook C', adjustable balance-arms D, having toy Weights E, and rod B, with toy ship F affixed thereto, in combination with the standard G, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
v In testimony whereof I afx my signature in presence of two witnesses.
. GEORGE S. CROSBY.
