\ Application filed September 17, 1921. Serial No. 501,371.
T 0 all whom itmag concern:
' Be it known that 1, JOHN 1-1.;Bnnrr, a citizen of the United States, residing atHartford, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sounding Toys, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to asoundingtoy such as will emit a musical tone or tones when subjected to the proper action which in the present case is by rotating the device. Among the objects of the invention are the provision of an article of the character set forth, which is capable of inexpensive construction, which can be readily made and which can be easily operated usually by hand.
In the drawings accompanying and forming part of the present specification, I have shown in detail one of the several forms of embodiment of the invention which to enable those skilled in the art to practice the same Figure 1 is an elevation of a toy involving the invention.
Fig. 2 is a vertical section on the line 2-2 of Fig. 3.
Fig. 3 is a vertical section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
Figs. e. and 5 are vertical sections on the lines 4l-- 1 and 5-5 respectively of Fig. 2.
Like characters refer to like parts through out the several. views. 1
The device involves a suitable hollow body such as that denoted in a general way by 2, and which with certain portions thereof may be made from proper material such as any one of several sheet metals. As shown the body is made up of two like concave-convex sections 3 generally with their concave sides next to each other with their edges interlocked usually, by spinning the marginal portion of one of said sections 3 fitting over the corresponding portion of the complemental section so as to produce between them a chamber to receive within it what 1 term an impeller and certain adjunctive parts. The sections 3 have generally centrally upon their outer sides the bosses 4i transversely alined and with which the rotating means of whatever character it may be is desirably connected.
The. rotating means usually consists of cords 5 in loop formation, the inner bights being extended through perforations in the outer portions ofthebosses 1, which is to be understood. are hollow. Ttmight be stated atthis point that the toy has air inlet holes and air outlet holes for the entrance and dis charge respectively of air. The airgoutlet holes 2 of which there are usually several, are desirably formed in the peripheral portion of the body2 which is slotted to form said holes and which are generally arranged in pairs. The inlet openings 1 are usually formed in the bosses a, the inlets or air supply openings being generally located back of the tips or crowns of the bosses.
Practically centrally disposed in the body 2, is the shaft or spindle 8, the terminal 301'- tions of which are rotatively supporte by reed-carriers which usually consist of circular plates or disks 9 fixedly set in the inner ends of the hollow bosses 4, and each provided with several external reeds 10, covering slots 10' therein. Endwise movement of the shaft or spindle 8 is prevented in some convenient way as by collars 11 rigidly fastened thereto and abutting the respective reed carriers, plates or disks 10.
The body 2 receives within it an impeller 12 ordinarily made from some sheet metal stock and having on its sides the wings or blades 13 which positively direct the air drawn into the body 2 against the reeds 10 to sound the reeds, the air after it has exercised such function, passing to atmosphere by way of the outlets 2.
The shaft or spindle 8 is provided near its opposite ends with segmental, fiat valves as 14: rigid therewith and oppositely placed so that as the valves turn with the shaft or spindle they alternately render the reeds 10 effective to be sounded by blasts of air, passing through the slots 10.
The impeller 12 usually is composed of two circularmembers 12 fitted face to face fiatwise with their marginal portions clamped by and between the sections of the body 2. The circular members 12 have on their enterioiythe blades or wings 13, in order to positively drive out air as the toy is rotated, by way of the slots 2 directing theair laterally through the slots 10 of the reedcarriers 10, by reason of which the reeds are sounded by the air which subsequently passes to atmosphere by Way of the openings 2.
The shaft or spindle 8 rigidly carries the valves 14 oppositely disposed and which are rendered alternately efiective by the arms 16 engageable by the impeller 13 as the same is oppositely rotated, said arms being fastened to the shaft 8. 1 What I claim is y 1. A sounding-toy comprising a hollow body having air inlets and air outlets, the body having means'to be rotated oppositely by cord means, a disk in the body having slots and also having reeds opposite the respective slots, and an impeller in the body, having wings to direct air against the reeds. I 2. A sounding toy comprising a hollow body having air inlets and air outlets, the body having means to be rotated oppositely by cord means, a disk in the body having slots andalso having reeds opposite the respective slots and an impeller in the body,
having wings to direct the air against the respective reeds, and valve means for rendering the reeds alternately effective and inmeans, the body having in its peripheral portion, air outlets, disks, supported at the inner ends of the bosses and having slots, and also having reeds, opposite the slots, a shaft supported for rocking movement by the reed carrying plates, and valves rotative With the shaft, for rendering the reeds alternatively effective. p
In testimony'whereof I afrix my signature.
