' n SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 628,654, dated July 11, 1899.
Application tlledhNovember 29, 1898. Serial No. 697,771. {No model.)
VTo all whom, t mag/concern: I i
Be it known that I, JAMES D. FADDEN, a citi` zen of the United States, residing at Auburn, in the county of Androscoggin and State ot' Maine, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Childrens Toys; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of thcinvention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same. v
My invention relates to childrens toys; and the object is to-provide a simple, inexpensive, and amusing device for this purpose.
To this end the invention consists in the construction, combination, andarrangement of the several parts' of the device, as will be hereinafter more fully described, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings the same reference characters indicate the same parts ot' the invention.
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved toy.A Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section'. Fig. 3 is a bottom plan view.` Fig. 4 is a transverse vertical section on the line of the front legs. Fig. 5 is a modified form of the body and legs.l Fig. 6 is a transverse vertical section through the front legs. Fig. 7 shows another form of connecting the-bodyand legs. Fig. 8 is a perspective view of one of the Wheels and its connected leg. Fig. 9 shows the front legs connected by a rod passing through both feet and the contiguous wheels. Fig. 10 is another form of connecting the legs, wheels, and frame together.
In the drawings, l denotes the body portion, which in the present instance represents a horse; but I do not wish to @Online myself to this form, as a bodylportion conforming to the shape of any four-legged animal may be employed. Y
2 and 3 denote the front legs, the upper ends of which terminate in' the' disk-like blades 4 4, which are seated in correspondingly-formed recesses 5 5 formed in the fore quarters of the body and are pivoted inplace by the bolts 6 6. The rear or hind legs 7 7 are similar in construction and are pivoted on the bolts 8 8 in corresponding :recesses in the hind quarters of the body' portion.
An Hshaped frame, consisting of the parallel side bars 9 9, connected by the central brace lO, is provided at its outer ends with jiixed hubs 12 12 to receive the axle-pins 13 13, on which are journaled the ground-wheels 14 14 and l5 15. The inner faces of these wheels are provided with wrist-pins 1G 16, on whichrare mounted the lower ends or foot portions of the legs to support the body portion in a vertical position. The inner face of each of the wheels where the wrist-pins project is cut away, as shown, toform radial shoulders 17 V17, which project into .the path of the legs, and thus serve to limit thefor- Ward-and-backward movement of the body.
In Fig. 6, which is my preferred form, the counterbalance is on the outside of thel wheels, while the inner faces of the wheels to which the legs are pivoted are plane, so that the wheels make complete revolutions and simulate the various movements of a horse.
Referring to Fig. 9, it will be seen that the wrist-pins 16 are dispensed with and the inner faces of the wheels are provided with hubs a a, which project beyond the shoulders 17, and a rod l) passes through these hubs to receive the lower end of the legs. This construction prevents the' legs from coming in contact with the shoulders, and this manner of connecting the legsand wheels, which is similar in effect to that shown in Fig. 6, and the motion the wheels give to the horse, cause the animal to appear to run, gallop, rear, and kick in.a perfectlynatural manner. In this construction and that shown in Fig. S the part c denotes a counterbalance-weight fixed to each of the wheels, the combined eifect of which is tov restore the body portion to its upright position after it has been moved forward or backward1 Referringto Fig. 6, the body portion is made in two halves 18 and 19, the inner face of the member 18 being formed with a longitudinal groove 20 to receive the corresponding tongue 21 on the contiguous face of the opposite member 19, and 22 denotes a transverse bolt or rivet which secures the two parts together. responding to the fore quarters is formed with a circular recess 23, and the opposed faces of the parallel walls of this recess are formed with the alined orifices 24 24 to Areceive the That part of the body portion cor4 IOO opposite ends of the pin 25, fixed in the disk tenon 26, which is formed with the integral parallel legs 27 27, the lower ends ofwhich encompass the wrist-pins on the wheels, as in the preferred construction.
In Fig. 7 I have shown practically the same construction as that illustrated in Figs. 5 and 6 with the exception that an orifice 28g is formed in the disk tenon 26 to receive the stud-pins 29 29, which are formed integral with the parallel Walls of the circular recess formed in the two halves of the body portion.
In Fig. l0 I have shown the pins which connect the wheels and the frame, and the pins which connect the wheels and the legs are all made of a single piece of wire rod, the outer ends of the crank portion on which the legs are pivoted being formed with short journals, which have a bearing in the countersunk ends of the hubs a ct, thus employing a single wire to connect the frame, wheels, and legs.
Although I have specifically described the construction and relative arrangement of the several elements of my invention, I do not desire to be conned to the same, as such changes or modifications may be made as clearly fall within the scope of my invention without departing from the spirit thereof.
Having thus fully described my invention,
what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
l. In combination, the body portion formed with recesses in its fore and hind quarters, legs pivoted at their upper ends in said recessed quarters, the parallel side bars connected by the .central brace, the Wheels journaled on the outer ends of the inner faces of said bars and provided on their inner faces with the wrist-pins to receive the lower ends of said legs, substantially as shown and described.
2. In combination, the body portion, the legs pivoted at their upper ends to said body portion, the parallel bars connected by the transverse brace, and' the wheels axially mounted on said bars and provided with the wrist-pins journaled in the lower ends of the legs and having their inner faces formed with radial shoulders which alternately project into the path of said legs, substantially as shown and described.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
JAMES D. FADDEN.
