UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
GEORGE H. HYNE, OF ROCHESTER, NEW YORK.
SPINNING-TOP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 661,052, dated November 6, 1900. Applaton le'l January 22, 1900. Serial No. 2.406. (No model.)
To @ZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE H. HYNE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Rochester, in the county of Monroe and State of .set in motion, the top is then placed on any level surface and revolves as one piece. I attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in Which-- Figure l is a sectional view of the top, showing the position of the shaft and driving-wheel when suspended in the hand prior to being operated, the lower shoulder resting on the bottom of the case. Fig. 2 is also a sectional view showing the position of the top when revolving on any level surface, the case and frame being revolved frictionally on the upper shoulder on the shaft. Fig. 3 is a top plan view disclosing the circular form of the case, also a cross-section of the frame, the two outer ends rigid on the case, and one end of the cord attached on the driving wheel. Fig. 4 is a'perspective View and shows the manner in which the top is operated.
Similar letters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
A is the frame.
B is the case.
C is the driving-wheel.
D E are the shoulders on the shaft.
F is the shaft.
G is the annular groove in the drivingwheel.
H H are the lower angles on the frame.
I is the cord.
In Fig. l the frame A and case B, loose on the shaft F,'extend above and below the shoulders D E on shaft F and are adapted for limited vertical movement. The lower angles H H of the frame D project down freely in an annular' groove G in the top of the driving- Wheel C. This is to guard the cord I as it winds upon the shaft F.
When the top is held in the hand prior to being operated, the shoulder E rests on the bottom of case B, (see Fig. 1;) but when the driving-wheel C is set in motion and the top is placed on any level'surface the case A and frame B frictionally revolve on the upper shoulder D (see Fig. 2) on the shaft F as one piece.
What I claim as my invention, and wish to obtain by Letters Patent, is-
l In a spinning-top a shaft F, provided with a spinning-point at either end, and carrying a driving-wheel C, rigid with the shaft, a cord I, one end secured on the top of the drivingwheel near the shaft, said shaft havingashoulder D, near its upper end, and a shoulder E near its lower end, a frame A, rigid on a case B, both frame and case loose on the shaft, and extending above and below the shoulders and provided for limited vertical movement, the frame provided with angles H H, at its base, an annular groove G, in the driving-Wheel to freely receive the angles to a limited extent, said angles acting as a guard for the cord as it winds upon the shaft, the shoulders on shaft to hold the frame and case free from the driving-wheel, and also being adapted to engage and thereby rotate said frame and case when resting on the uppermost shoulder on the shaft when the top is spinning on either spinning-point, substantially as described.
