CATAPULT PROPELLED VEHICLE. TOY
Filed May 5', 1945 INVENTOR. Richard 11/? Carzyew Patented Aug. 1, 1950 UNITED STATESMPATENT OFFICE CATAPULT PROPELLED VEHICLE TOY Richard N. Carver, Erie, Pa., assignor to Louis Marx & Company, Incl; New York, N. Y., a corporation of New York Application May 5, 1945, Serial No. 592,118
a gradual movement or propulsion of the vehicle toy. The spring operated vehicle toy of the presentinvention is contrastingly characterized by the provision of a spring motor which requires no Winding but which is energized by a simple movement of an actuating member, which spring motor is not connected to the wheels of the toy, the spring motor being capable of being suddenly deenergized for producing an impulse or catapult propulsion of the vehicle toy. A vehicle toy is thereby produced which, although spring propelled, is exceedingly simplified in construction, is capable of being instantly energized and propelled, and which produces a novel action.
To the accomplishment of this object and such other objects as may hereinafterappear, my invention relates to the catapult propelled vehicle toy sought to be defined in the appended claims and described in the following specification taken together with the accompanying drawings in which:
Fig. 1 is a vertical medial cross-sectional view of a wheeled type of vehicle toy embodying the principles of my present invention;
Fig. '2 is a bottom plan view thereof with a in cross-section;
Fig. 3 is an enlarged view of the catapult propelling means for the toy, taken in longitudinal cross-section;
part
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary view corresponding to,
Fig. 3, but showing a modification; and
Fig. 5 is a view of the modification of Fig. 4 taken in cross-section in the plane of the line 5-5 of Fig. 4.
Referring now more in detail to the drawings and having reference first to Figs. 1 and 2 thereof, the vehicle toy of the present invention comprises a vehicle toy generally designated as H], comprising a vehicle body l2, a spring l4 carried by said body, and a manually holdable actuating member l6 separate from the vehicle body 12, said actuating member being forcibly insertable into the body to engage and compress said spring M to energize the same as best shown in Fig. 1 of the 2 p drawings, the construction being such that sudden release of the vehicle body 12 from said. manually held actuating member I6 causes the vehicle body to be catapult propelled from the maniii for manually holding the same.
l. and 3 of the drawings.
ually held actuating member.
The vehicle toy l0 when made in the form of a wheeled vehicle comprises the vehicle body l2 mounted on wheels, the vehicle body being for this purpose formed with the depending journals l8, [8 for supporting the axles 29, 2D, the latter carrying the wheels 22, 22. The body [2 .may be made of any light weight material and in the form of the invention shown in the drawings the vehicle body [2 consists of a hollow chassis molded from a suitable plastic material. The axles 2G, 2!! and the wheels 22, 22 may also be made out of a, suitable plastic material where simplicity and a light weight structure is deend 26 of the said spring housing preferably ex tending from the rear of the vehicle body. The tubular casing 24 may also be made of a plastic material preferably transparent, and the same is supported in the vehicle body l2 at the wallsof the orifice 28 through which the spring housing projects, and the tubular casing may also be secured in this position by being adhesively attached as at 3!] and 32 frontally and rearwardly to the interior walls of the vehicle body l2. compression spring 14 may be anchored at its front end to the spring casing 24 by means of the rivet or staple 34. The rearward projection of the spring housing from the vehicle body is made to simulate an exhaust pipe of a gas motor pro pelled vehicle.
The manually held actuating member 16 comprises in the form of the invention exemplified in the drawings, a plunger or rod member 36 provided at its rear end with a finger knob 38 The plunger member 355 is forcibly insertable into the spring housing 24 from its rear open end into engagement with the spring M for compressing and energizing the same, as is clearly shown in Figs. With the parts held as in Fig. l of the drawings, sudden release or the vehicle body H. from the manually held plunger member 36, the knob 38 of which isheld body lll to be suddenly propelled with a catapult action from the plunger member with the latter remaining held by the user or operator. When the vehicle body is thus suddenly released and propelled forwardly, the compression spring i l expands to fill substantially the full length of the spring housing 24, as is best indicated in Fig. 2 of the drawings.
Preferably there is provided interengaging means on a part of vehicle body and a part of the actuating member for holding the vehicle body to the actuating member when the spring is energized. In the form of the invention shown in Figs. 1 to 3 of the drawings, this interengaging means comprises the dovetailing of the finger knob 38 with the rear end of the spring housing 24. To this end the knob 38 is axially recessed as at 36 and'this recess irictionally receives the outer end i? of the spring housing 2%. The knob 38 has a limited axial movement with respect to the plunger or rod 36 and for this purpose the knob is provided with a pin i i extending radially through the knob, the lower end of which moves .etween abutments on. the plunger 36 formed by the reduced section ad of the plunger. When the knob 38 is forced into interengagement with the spring housing 22s, the parts assume the position shown in Figs. T1. and 3 of the drawings. The vehicle body may then be placed on a support as shown in l and the operator may then merely hold the toy by engaging the finger knob 38. With the finger knob between the forefinger and the. middle ringer, the operators thumb may then be placed against the end of the plunger 36 and by movement of the fingers, as indicated by the arrows E8 and in Fig. l, the knob 38 may be moved rearwardly relative to the plunger 36 for disengaging the interengaging means :53 and 4'2 thereby effecting the sudden release of the vehicle body from the actuating member.
In the modified structure shown in Figs. 4 and 5 of the drawings, a different form of interengaging means is employed. In this form the knob 38' is fixedly attached to the end of the plunger 36, and the latter is provided with a bayonet pin 52 which engages a bayonet slot 54 formed in the end of the spring housing fill. The toy as before may now be placed on a support in the manner shown in Fig. 1, and the knob 3'8 may then be rotated in the direction shown by the arrow 56 in Fig. 5 to disengage the pin 52 from the bayonet slot 54, thereby causing the disengagement of the holding means which in turn acts to eifect the sudden. release and propulsion of the vehicle body from the manually he ld actuating member.
The structure and functioning of the catapult propelled toy of the present invention and the many advantages thereof as a novel acting toy will, it is believed, be fully apparent from the above detailed description thereof. For a spring actuated toy the construction is extremely simple. The toy may be energized by a small child, contrasting with the diiiiculty of winding up the usual spring motor for a veh1cle toy. When operated, the toy is forcibly propelled with a suddenness which characterizes jet operated or catapult actuated devices. The momentum acquired by the toy particularly when it is made of a light weight construction, devoid, as it is, of gearing and large spring motor parts, carries the toy over substantially long propulsion dista-nces.
1 It will be apparent that many changes may be made in the construction described without departing from the principle of the invention as defined in the following claims.
