Definitions
- the present invention in general relates to a dynamo containing amusement device and in particular to an amusement device providing multiple electrically powered amusement functions with power derived from dynamo operation.
- battery powered amusement devices With the advent of miniature electrical motors and speaker components, battery powered amusement devices largely supplanted mechanical movements. Typically, an electrically powered amusement device offers longer usage between reenergizing, wider material choices, and extended movement longevity.
- the power source for operating electrically powered amusement devices has largely been disposable alkaline batteries. Reliance on disposable battery power creates inconvenience and cost associated with stocking replacement batteries, as well as creating an ecologically noxious waste stream.
- alkaline batteries An alternative to the use of alkaline batteries is rechargeable batteries of various chemistries.
- a rechargeable battery upon being discharged is removed from the amusement device and placed into an electrically powered charger typically coupled to line power or a vehicle electrical system as the power origin.
- battery recharge to again power an amusement device requires downtime during which the amusement device cannot be used and often involves adult interaction to remove a battery and place the same into a charging device.
- an extrinsic electrical source is required to charge the battery, ongoing constraints on usage environment for the amusement device and costs remain.
- a dynamo powered amusement device that has multiple amusement functions integrated into a housing.
- the amusement functions include two or more of a movement, a light emitting diode illumination, an auditory output and a video presentation.
- the electrical power source for the amusement functions is a manually powered dynamo.
- the direct current generated by a dynamo is provided to a printed circuit board in electrical communication with the amusement functions so as to provide power directly from the manually powered dynamo or, if a chargeable battery is present, to supply power from the chargeable battery.
- the amusement device provides enhanced performance relative to mechanical amusement devices while avoiding costs and environment problems associated with disposable battery containing amusement devices.

- the present invention performs in this manner through the integration of a manually operated dynamo. As a result, a child user is able to enjoy the amusement device indefinitely without resort to adult supervision to replace or charge a battery. With the inclusion of printed circuit board mounting of operational electronics, superior amusement functions as compared to mechanical amusement functions is achieved.
- a battery is optionally not present and instead the amusement device operates directly only through manual operation of a dynamo crank.
- an inventive dynamo powered amusement device configured as a jack-in-the-box is shown generally at 10. It is appreciated that the attributes of the device 10 are likewise applicable to a music box that also provides a movement, a light emitting diode illumination or video presentation.
- the device 10 has a housing defining an internal volume V 3 the volume V being selectively accessible with the opening of a housing lid 14.
- a hand crank 16 terminating in a rotatable knob 18 is coupled to a dynamo 22 by way of gearing 20.
- the gearing 20 operates to translate a single rotation of hand crank 16 into multiple input rotations into a dynamo 22 mechanically coupled to the output of the gearing 20.
- a conventional dynamo-gearing-crank arrangement is depicted in U.S. Patent 6,959,999.
- the dynamo 22 provides a direct current electrical output to a printed circuit board 24.
- Operation of the hand crank 16 powers the dynamo 22 that in turn supplies energy input to power a auditory generator 26 located within the housing 12.
- LEDs 27 located on the housing 12 are also powered in this manner.
- the auditory generator 26 is operational at least at such time as the hand crank 16 is being operated.
- Suitable auditory generators to produce an auditory output for use in the present invention illustratively include a speaker, buzzer, piezoelectric vibratory crystal, a bell, music box, chime, and a bellows.
- the printed circuit board 24 in turn operates a solenoid switch 28 to electrically induce the opening of lid 14 thereby allowing the internal figure to spring forth from the volume V.
- Figurine 30 is supported around the perimeter of a weak spring constant coil spring (not shown) as is conventional to the art.
- the figurine 30 is in electrical communication with the printed circuit board 24 so as to provide novel functions to the extended figurine such as auditory presentation 33 by way of a figurine auditory generator 34, light emitting diode emission from LEDs 36 decorating the figurine 30, or an electrically powered movement; each of these functions is provided alone or in combination.
- the amusement device depicted with reference to Figs. 1 and 2 preferably has a solenoid opening switch 28 that triggers at a random interval so as to create a heightened sense of anticipation.
- the solenoid 28 is triggered to release after a cumulative time of crank manipulation.
- a switch 37 is provided to vary the mode of solenoid activation.

- one begins to crank the hand crank 16 at step 40.
- prerecorded music or other audio output is provided from auditory generator 26 at step 42 while LEDs 27 within the housing 12 are also activated at step 44.
- the temporal interaction between auditory output 42 and light activation 44 during the course of the cranking at step 40 may include any number of various sequences.
- the auditory output continues continually during cranking while the housing lights blink.
- the solenoid 28 receives a signal from the printed circuit board 24 causing the Hd 14 to open at step 46.
- the compressed figure 30 springs from housing volume V at step 48.
- the jack figurine 30 then preferably plays a prerecorded program 33 through auditory generator 34, if present, or otherwise from auditory generator 26 and/or LED lights 32 associated with the figure 30 are illuminated at step 52.
- the figure 30 provides both auditory output and LED light emission.
- the temporal relationship between auditory and optional output can take a variety of forms.
- the figure 30 also provides a mechanical motion associated with a secondary solenoid within the figure or a motor (not shown) to initiate figure movement at step 54.
- a typical movement might include releasing a spring associated with a limb so as to simulate a hand wave of the figure.
- step 48 the user stops manipulating the hand crank subsequent to step 48 and as such electrical power for steps 50-52 is provided through capacitor energy storage within the printed circuit board 24 during cranking.
- steps 50-54 are provided by continuing to crank after the jack has emerged from the housing at step 48. With the closing of the lid 14 at step 56, the amusement device 10 is ready again for the initiation of play.
- FIG. 4 a partial cutaway semitransparent view of animate figurine embodiment of the present invention is depicted generally at 70 where like numerals correspond to those detailed above with respect to Figs. 1-3.
- the figurine 70 as depicted is a plush amusement device configured as a teddy bear. However, it is appreciated that such a figurine is readily constructed to simulate a variety of animal, human, or fanciful creatures and is readily formed from materials illustratively including plush, injection molded thermoplastics, and porcelain.
- the figurine 70 is in component casing 72.
- the component casing 72 includes a dynamo 22 providing electrical input to a printed circuit board 24, and optionally a rechargeable battery 74.
- Rechargeable battery 74 is also in electrical communication with the dynamo and the printed circuit board 24 such that amusement functions driven by printed circuit board 24 are powered either directly from the dynamo 22 or via rechargeable battery 74, that in turn is recharged through operation of the dynamo 22. Extending from component casing 72 is a pull cord 76 terminating in a handle 78. It is appreciated that the size and type of battery 74 is not critical to the present invention. For example, nickel-cadmium, metal hydride, acid, and polymeric batteries are operative herein. Operative battery sizes illustratively include 24 volt, 12 volt, 9 volt, AAA, AA, B 3 C, and D sized cells.
- the handle 78 is rendered in the form of a figure body portion or accoutrement.
- the pull string 76 engages a spring-tensioned spool 80 in mechanical communication with the dynamo 22 to induce movement thereof.
- the figurine 70 in one operational mode commences to provide at least two forms of amusement for a user in the form of LED emission; electrically driven movable jointed appendages such as a jaw, neck, ears or a limb; a auditory generator providing prerecorded music and/or spoken utterances; a microphone recording and a auditory generator playing back the recording; and a video display. While a full complement of amusement functions are depicted on figurine 70, it is appreciated that an inventive device need not be inclusive of all such components.
- Fig. 4 These components depicted in Fig. 4 include a video display 82, a auditory generator 26, a microphone 84, LEDs 85, and a mechanical actuator 86, each of which is in electrical communication with the printed circuit board 24 by way of electrically conductive wires or directly fixtured thereto.
- At least one switch 88 is optionally provided such that a user elects components that are to be operative to provide an amusement function.
- toddlers are often fearful of a figurine 70 of an animate creature and as such emission from LEDs 85 positioned within the nose of the figure 70 is precluded by pressing the left foot switch 88', while for instance 88" activates a prerecorded message.
- the game 100 includes a housing stationary portion 102 having a hingeably attached movable portion 104.
- the housing portions 102 and 104 in combination are provided in a simulative form of an animal, human, fanciful creature, a cave, or a manmade structure illustratively including a garbage truck and a trap.
- the housing portions 102 and 104 are each independently formed of an injection moldable thermoplastic, an elastomer or combination subcomponents thereof.
- a series of electrical switches 106 are exposed upon the hingeable attached movable portion 104 being rotated into an open position.
- Switches 106 are in electrical communication with a printed circuit board 108 that randomly assigns to one of the multiple switches 106 a circuit connection to a solenoid 28 engaging a spring-loaded hinge 110. Electrical power is provided to the circuit board 108 and ultimately to the solenoid 28 by way of a chargeable battery. The chargeable battery 84 in turn is charged by a dynamo 22. The dynamo 22 generates an electrical output through the rotation of a hand crank 1 12 rotatable about a spindle 114. Spindle 114 conveys rotational mechanical energy to the dynamo 22 by way of gearing 20. As depicted in Figs. 5-7, the hand crank 1 12 is recessed into a basal surface 115 of the stationary housing portion 102.
- the hand crank 112 preferably includes a knob 117 that sits within stationary housing portion 102 when not in use. Elevating the handle 1 12 through an arc of 180 degrees around hinge axis A-A exposes the knob 1 17 and allows the handle 112 to rotate circumferentially around the spindle 114.
- the chance game 100 is optionally provided with one or more light emitting diodes 120 or a auditory generator providing a prerecorded audio amusement function (not shown).
- the LED 120 is in electrical communication with the printed circuit board 108 and derives operational power therefrom.
- a chance game as depicted at 100 in Figs. 5-7 represents a considerable improvement over prior art, nonelectrical forms of such a chance game that operate through mechanical depression of a randomly selected key to induce a hingeable portion to close.
- Such mechanical versions of this game have a tension associated with the triggering key that can be felt by a game participant prior to triggering so as to avoid that particular key.
- keys adjacent to a triggering key receive a certain bracing based on their position and relative to other nonactive keys so as to afford still another mechanism by which a chance game participant may manipulate the outcome.
- U.S. Patent 5,193,808 is representative of this prior art supplanted by the present invention.
- an inventive amusement device having a rotating lighted portion is depicted generally at 140.
- the device 140 has a housing 142.
- the housing 142 has a planar base 144.
- the base 144 has dimensions relative to the center of gravity of the device 140 such that the device 140 is operable resting on the base 144. While a variety of conventional materials are well suited for the formation of the housing 142, injection moldable thermoplastic represents a preferred material.
- a hand crank 146 is mechanically coupled to gearing 20 that feeds the mechanical power to operate a dynamo 22.
- the hand crank 146 is preferably hingeably connected to a crank spindle 148.
- the crank 146 terminates in a rotatable knob 150.
- the knob 150 is preferably adapted to insert within a recess 152 within the housing 142. Upon elevating the hand crank 146 through an axis of 180 degrees, the knob 150 is exposed in order to provide power the dynamo 22.
- the dynamo 22 generates direct current electrical power that is fed to a printed circuit board 154 to either directly power LEDs 156 and rotation of a head portion 158 or alternatively to charge a battery 74 that in turn is used to illuminate LED 156 or the rotation of the head 158 at times when the hand crank 146 is not being operated.
- An electric motor 162 is operated by way of the printed circuit board 154 to power the rotation of head 158.
- the head 158 optionally has one or more fan blades 164 so as to provide a measure of air circulation associated with the operation of the device 140.
- an electrical switch 166 is in electrical communication with the printed circuit board 154, the switch 166 extending from the housing 142 to provide various operational modes illustratively including rotation of head 158 only, illumination of LED 156, on/off, or various patterns of LED illumination.
- An LED 156 is appreciated to be operable in various modes including continuous emission, periodic emission or various patterns of emission associated with multiple LEDs to provide visually interesting effects.
- Fig. 9 depicts an alternate design of an illuminated rotating head amusement device relative to Fig. 8 where like numerals correspond to previously described components.
- the device 180 depicted in Fig. 9 varies from that depicted in Fig. 8 with regard to the nature of the rotating head 182.
- the head 182 has LEDs 156 decorating the head 182.
- a protective transparent globe 184 envelopes the rotating head 182 and is secured to the housing 142.
- FIG. 10 A typical operational scheme for an inventive rotating head device as depicted in either Fig. 8 or Fig. 9 is shown as a schematic in Fig. 10.
- the hand crank 146 With the rotating head 158 or 182 and the LEDs 156 in an off position, at step 200 the hand crank 146 is elevated through an arc of 180 degrees and cranked so as to charge a battery at step 202.
- the switch 166 After cranking for a sufficient time to impart charge to the battery 160, the switch 166 is moved to a position to create an electrical circuit between the battery 160 and the LED 156, head 158 or 182, or combination thereof at step 204. Rotation of the head and/or LED illumination thereafter occurs at step 206.
