Specification 01 Letters Patent. Patented June 21, 1910.
Application filed December 31, 1909. Serial No. 535,855.
' Be it known that I, DON M. LEMON, citizen of the United States, resident of Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have made a certain new and useful Invention in Toys; and-I declare the following to be a full, clear, andexact description of the same, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the invention, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or figures of reference. marked thereon, which form a ,part of this; specification.
Figure 1 is a central vertical section of a dolls head showing the invention as ap-j lied; Fig. .2 is a section on the line .22, .ig. 1; Fig. 3 is a central vertical section showing a modification of the invention including the representation of two mouths of different expressions; Fig. 4 is a detail side view partly broken away, showing. a modified means 'for furnishing the representation of tears; Fig. 5 .is a plan view of the same;
Fig. 6 is :a central vertical section of a dolls head showing a modification of the invention as applied, and including means for exposing a solid tear and wlthdrawing the same from view; and Fig. 7 is a similar view showing in addition the representations of two mouths of different expressions.
The invention has relation to toys having the form of an animated creature, and has for its object the provision of means for causing tears or the visible representation of tears to fall from the eye or eyes of the figure.
Other objects and advantages will hereinafter appear. v
In the accompanying drawings, illustrating the invention, the numeral 1 designates the head of the toy, being a doll as shown, and 2 is a horizontal support for the mechanism controlling the passage of the tear and representing one the normal or laughing eye and the other the weeping or sorrow ful eye, the movement-ofthe eyes "be- ,ing controlled by an 'intermediately fulcrumed lever :10 carried byan upwardexv tension 11 of the support 2 and having a rod 12 connectin with said lever 8.
The lever 10 workin in a slot 13 at the rearof the 'head of the doll, and is kept in its normal hori zontal position by a coiled spring 14 underlying its rear arm. II on depression of this lever 10 a valve 15 in t e neck 3 is operated to cut off the supply of water or other fluid from the bulb, whlle a valve 16 is simultaneously operated to allow the escape of a determined small .portion of the water into the branches 4 4;, and --from thence to the eye sockets, from whence this water will fall as tear drops. The valve 15 is located in a diaphragm or closure 17 of the neck 3, and consists of a horizontal passage or channel 17 controlled'by a vertical plunger '18 pivoted to the reararm of the lever 10 at 19 and having a channel or passage 19 which is normally in register with the passage 17, allowin water from the bulb to escape into the sma 1 com artment 20 between the valves 15 and 16. The valve 16 is located in a diaphragm 21 in the neck 3*, and consists of a horizontal channel 22controlled by a plunger 23 pivoted to the forward arm of the lever 10 at 24 and having a passage or channel 25 normally out of register withthe passage 22.
The two diaphragms 17 and 21 are separated from each other by a sulficient distance to admit between them in the neck 3 a small portion of the water of the" bulb, which escapes E0 the eyes upon operation of the lever 10 as before "stated the eye carrier being at the same time ad]usted to brin into view at the eye sockets the representation of the weeping or sorrowful -e es, the normal or laughing eyes being move downward out of sight.
In Fig. 3 of the drawings is shown a modification of the invention wherein the doll is provided with a mouth opening 27, the right-angle piece 6 being extended downward and carryi a lever 28 fulcrumed thereto at 29 and l avi-ng at one end a carrier 29 hearing the representations of the lips of two months 30 30, one located above the other, the one being the normal or smilas its operating' end 10 ing mouth and the other the drooping1 or sorrowful mouth. The operation of t carrier as stated and also the mouth carrier,
to bring the drooping mouth-into view at the mouth opening the smiling mouth passlng downward out of si ht. I
In Fi s. 4 and 5 o the drawing a modlficati0n 0 the invention is shown wherein the mechanism is of simpler nature, the bulb in.
fluid contents into the branches b, 5, leading to the eye sockets c, 0. A spring (1, between the two handles forces them back to normal position after operation.
In Fig. 7 of the drawings is shown astill further modification, wherein e, is a rod or bar pivoted intermediately of its length at f, and carrying'at one end thereof the representation of a crying mouth g, and a normal or laughin mouth 9' one located above theother, a so id tear it, of glass or other suit-.
able material having connection with the end of the bar e, by means of an upward rod extension j, and a flexible cord or wire 70. Thus upon depression of the handle end of the operating lever, which works in a slot 1, at the rear of the head of the doll, the normal mouth will move upward out of sight and the crying mouth Wlll come into view at the mouth 0 ening, the solid tear at the same time fal mg downward from the eye socket out upon the cheek of the doll, where it will remain until the lever is released, when the parts will resume normal position, the crymg mouth moving downward out of sight, the siniling mouth coming into view and the solid tear being withdrawn into the eye socket.
Fig. 6 shows a modification for bringing into view the visible representatidn of a solid tear without the means for changing the eyes or months to'accord with different-moods.
1 In this figure n, is the support; 0, an operating lever fulcrumed to a standard of said support at 0'; p, is the e e socket; r, the so11 tear havin asmall sti rod attachment 1", and a flexib e connection t, with the rod passing over a small pulley t, to the end of the operating lever; and u, a small weight having connection with the upper end of the little rod 1". Thus upon movement of the operating lever the weight will be dropped, causing the solid tear to fall out upon the cheek of the doll, where it will remain until '12, carrying arts referred to moving simultaneously ack to normal position.
While I have shown theparts as in position for operation at the back of the head of the doll, it will be obvious that by a simple rearrangement of the parts (not shown) e lever in this case simultaneously actuates the eye the device may be operated from any suitable part of the body of the figure. v
