My invention relates to that class of devices for home-amusement, which embodyv a revolving card, printed or marked with numbers, and fortune-telling inscriptions, and provided with. a pointer, to indicate thenumber or inscription, when the card stops; and
My invention consists in the peculiar construction, attachment, and mode of operation of the device for revolving the card.
In the accompanying drawings- Figure 1- -is a perspective view, partly in section, of a device embodying my invention.
Figures 2 and 3 exhibit detached views of the device for operating the revolving card.
A. is the base, or frame, within which the revolving card, or plate is journalled.
B is the pointer, which is permanently secured to the base, A, by tting tightly on the projecting pin a, which is rigidly secured to the base, A, in the manner shown.
The revolving plate O is fitted to rotate freely on the pin a, and is provided with a hub, c, on its under side, the hub being also connected to aplate, c', which is journalled onthe pin a.
An arm, D, is `pivotal to the base, A, at d, which is' shaped to form a segment of a circle, at d', concentric with the pivot d.
vA slot, d,"is provided in the arm, for the insertion of a piece of India rubber, 4"', between the pivot and segment, for the purpose of' pressing the segmental face tightly against the h ub c of the plate C.
Thecurved face is provided with an India-rubber tire, or covering, dm', which` serves the important purpose of hugging the h ub c closely, and. preventing slipplug.
A slot, a', is eut in the base, A, by which the motion of the arm D is limited.
