Application March 5, 1958, Serial No. 719,337
2 Claims. (Cl. 46-414) The present invention relates to push-pull rolling sounding toys which automatically sound as the toy is rolled.
The primary object of the invention is to provide an inexpensive push-pull rolling sounding toy which is highly entertaining to children.
Another object of the invention is to provide a sounding toy of the class described above having a plurality of sounding voices which will successively sound during the rolling of the toy.
A further object of the invention is to provide a pushpull sounding toy of the class described above in which the voices are mounted in balanced relation to permit the toy to roll evenly.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a push-pull sounding toy which is extremely durable in use and which can be constructed with a minimum of expensive equipment by relatively unskilled labor.
Other objects and advantages will become apparent in the following specification when considered in the light of the attached drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the invention.
Figure 2 is an enlarged fragmentary horizontal crosssection taken along the line 2--2 of Figure 1, looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 3 is an enlarged fragmentary vertical crosssection taken along the line 3-3 of Figure 1, looking in the direction of the arrows.
Figure 4 is a perspective view of the bracket blank prior to installation in the toy.
Referring now to the drawings in detail wherein like reference characters indicate like parts throughout the several figures, the reference numeral 10 indicates generally a push-pull rolling sounding toy constructed in accordance with the invention.
The toy 10 includes a generally cylindrical wall 11 having a circular side wall 12 integrally formed along one edge thereof. A second circular side wall 13 is secured to the opposite side of the cylindrical wall 11 by means of adhesives or by thermal means with the circular side wall 13 arranged in spaced parallel relation to the circular side wall 12.
A tube 14 is arranged concentrically with the cylindrical wall 11 extending from the center of the circular side wall 12 to the center of the circular side wall 13 and attached thereto by adhesive or thermal means. The circular side wall 12 and the circular side wall 13 are provided, respectively, with central bores 15, 16 aligned with the center of the tube 14.
A U-shaped yoke 17 extends on opposite sides of the cylindrical wall 11 and has an axle 18 journalled in its free ends and extending through the bores 15, 16 and the tube 14 to support the cylindrical wall 11 and circular side walls 12, 13 for rotary movement in the yoke 17.
A shank 19 is secured to the yoke 17 and extends outwardly therefrom carrying a T-shaped handle 20 on its outer end by means of which the toy 10 can be rolled along the surface of the ground.
Referring now to Figure 4, a bracket generally indicated at 21 is formed with a generally rectangular base plate 22 having a pair of oppositely extending integral clamping arms 23, 24 formed thereon. The base 22 is 2,913,851 Patented Nov. 24, 1959 slotted at 25 adjacent the base of the arm 23 and at 26 adjacent the base of the arm 24 to permit the clamping arms 23, 24 to be bent out of the plane of the base 22, as can be seen in Figures 2 and 3.
The base 22 is adhesively or thermally secured to the inner face of the cylindrical wall 11 with the clamping arms 23 extending toward the circular side wall 12 and the clamping arms 24 extending toward the circular side wall 13.
The clamping brackets 21 are positioned in equispaced relation around the periphery of the cylindrical side wall 11 so as to balance the toy 10 to permit it to roll easily in use.
A cylindrical voice can or crier 27 of conventional construction including a weight operated bellows and voice reed (not shown) is centrally positioned over each of the base portions 22 of each bracket 21 and the clamping arms 23, 24 are wrapped thereabout and secured together in overlapping position, as shown in Figure 2, by means of adhesive or thermal securing means.
In the use and operation of the invention, the toy 10 is rolled along the floor or ground and the voice cans 27 operating successively as the can 27 passes through a cycle of rotation to create a successive voice or sound from the toy 10.
While the instant invention has been illustrated as formed of plastic, it should be understood that other materials may be used while maintaining the same inexpensive durable construction as that illustrated.
It should be further understood that the rolling toy 10 can be used without the yoke 17, shank 19, and handle '20, as a hand rolled toy or as the wheel of a vehicle and that the number of voice cans 27 can be varied to any desired extent so long as the balanced relation of the cans 27 within the cylindrical wall 11 is maintained. The toy 10, when desired, can be mounted to a fixed base for free rotation or rotated thereon by power means.
Having thus described the preferred embodiment of the invention, it should be understood that numerous structural modifications and adaptations may be resorted to without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
'What is claimed is:
1. A push pull rolling sounding toy comprising a cylin drical wall, a generally circular perforated side wall integrally secured to one side edge of said cylindrical wall, a second generally circular perforated side wall secured to the opposite side edge of said cylindrical Wall in spaced parallel relation to said first side wall, a bracket including a generally relatively thin rectangular base secured to the inner face of said cylindrical wall intermediate said side walls, a pair of arcuate oppositely extending relatively thin clamping arms having their inner ends integrally connected to said base in spaced apart relation spaced inwardly from the side edges of said base, and a voice can positioned against said base with said arcuate arms snuggly engaging thereabout securing said voice can to said cylindrical wall.
2. A device as claimed in claim 1 wherein a plurality of said brakets and said voice cans are mounted in equispaced relation about the periphery of said cylindrical wall.
