Description
April 2, 1946. w. M. LESTER ETAL TOY Filed May 25, 1944 INVENTO RS @axw ATTORNEY Patented Apr. 2, 1946 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE TOY William M. Lester, Mountainside, and Leon tics Company Application May 25, 1944, Serial No. 537,218
2 Claims.
The invention herein disclosed relates to a toy and more particularly to a toy constructed from thermo-plastic material.
An object of the invention is to provide a toy that is light in weight, attractive and durable in use. A further object of the invention is to provide a toy that combines in a single structure several toys commonly used by children. Another object of the invention is to provide a toy that is harmless both in use and to the one using it. An additional object of the invention is to provide a toy that is comparatively inexpensive to manufacture.
The foregoing objects and certain advantages that will hereinafter appear are realized in the embodiment of the invention illustrated in the accompanying drawing and described in detail below.
The drawing includes:
Fig. 1 which is a side elevation of a toy pistol embodying the invention;
Fig. 2 which is a front elevation of the same; and
Fig. 3 which is a section taken on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
The particular toy illustrated in the drawing consists of a hollow body of thermo-plastic material simulating the appearance of a pistol. The toy is constructed of two, longitudinally divided, similar sections united together along their contacting edges. Within the article there is an arrangement of Walls and passages such as to form a whistle. Thus, there is provided a light, safe toy combining in the single article a imulated pistol and police whistle which constitutes an attractive and useful toy.
As seen in Figs. 1 and 2, the toy simulates, closely, the appearance of a pistol of the revolver type. It includes a barrel I, a sight 2 on the end of the barrel, an extractor 3 below the barrel, a cylinder 4, a hammer 5, a trigger 6 and trigger guard 1, and the hand grip 8. This pistol is hollow and constructed from two, similar, complementary, longitudinally divided sections 9 and I cemented together along their contacting edges. The section 9 is illustrated in Fig. 3 of the drawing. The section It is similar in all respects except that it is complementary to the section 9.
Within the grip portion 8, there are an arrangement of slots, walls and passages that form a'whistle. These include a slot H through the rear of the grip, intermediate the ends thereof, and another slot l2 at the heel end of the grip. Within the grip, there is a substantially cylindrical wall I 3 extending between the edges of the slot ll. One edge of the slot is beveled to form a knife edge M. A wall l5 adjacent the rear wall of the grip forms, with the rear wall of the grip, an air passage l6 connecting the slot l2 with the substantially cylindrical cavity ll formed by the wall It. The end of the passage I 6 is directed towards the edge It of the wall of the cavity ll.
Before the two sections 9 and I0 are assembled together a wooden ball I8 is placed in the cylindrical cavity of one of the sections. The edges of the two sections 9 and I0 are then brought together and cemented. The finished article ha a smooth surface without any rough edges or fasteners on which a child might get scratched or cut. It simulates a revolver, closely, and combines within the hollow articl a police whistle.
The finished article is light in weight and the thermo-plastic material is tough but not brittle. Thus, it is safe in that if one is hit with it, it will not injure them. It will not break when dropped and will not shatter leaving ragged edges upon which a child may be injured. The whistle provides a means for making a noise which is desirable in a toy simulating a pistol, and it may also be used as a whistle.
It will be obvious that various changes may be made by those skilled in the art in the details of the embodiment of the invention disclosed in the drawing and described above within the principle and scope of the invention as expressed in the appended claims.
We claim:
1. As an article of manufacture, a toy of the kind described comprising in combination a hollow body entirely of thermo-plastic material simulating a pistol, such simulated pistol having a portion with an edge that may be embraced by the lips of a person, a cavity in said portion adjacent said edge formed by a substantially cylindrical wall, a slot in said portion communicating with said cavity, another slot in said edge and a passage leading from said second named slot to said cavity, said slots and cavity constituting a whistle.
2. As an article of manufacture, a toy of the kind described comprising in combination a hollow body entirely of thermo-plastic material simulating the appearance of a pistol, such simulated pistol having a grip portion, a cavity in said grip portion formed by a substantially cylindrical wall, a slot in the outer rear surface of said grip portion communicating with said cavity, another slot in the lower surface of said grip portion and a passage leading from said second named slot to said cavity, said slots and cavity constituting a whistle.
