`Sept. 9, 1958 J. H. BALL TOY WHISTLE'ATTACHMENT Filed Oct. 4, 1956 m, .T.. A H. ,m M @w NNNwwh@ United States Patent O TOY WHISTLE ATTACHMENT John H. Ball, Abilene, Tex. Application October 4, 1956, Serial No. 613,958
z claims. (ci. 272-27) i This invention generally relates to an amusement device and more particularly to a toy whistle attachment wherein the toy whistle may be employed in the usual manner in providing a whistling noise and also employed for discharging a line stream of water.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a toy whistle attachmentvwhich incorporates in a conventional toy whistle a water tube from which water may be discharged if the mouthpiece of the whistle is blown on with a force larger than normally employed for only blowing the whistle or a squeeze bulb may be employed for operating the device.
Other objects of the present invention will reside in its simplicity of construction, ease of operation, adaptation for its particular purposes and its relatively inexpensive manufacturing cost.
These together with other objects and advantages which will 'become subsequently apparent reside in the details of construction and operation as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout, and in which:
Figure l is a perspective view of the toy whistle with the attachment of the present invention installed therein;
Figure 2 is a perspective View of the toy whistle and attachment with the device being in extended position;
Figure 3 is a transverse, vertical sectional view taken substantially upon a plane passing along section line 3--3 of Figure 2 illustrating the details of construction of the device;
Figure 4 is a longitudinal, vertical sectional view taken substantially upon a plane passing along section' line 4-4 of Figure 3 illustrating further structural details of the device; and,
Figure 5 is a partial sectional view of a squeeze bulb attachment to the mouthpiece of the device.
Referring now specifically to the drawings, the numeral generally designates the toy of the present invention which incorporates a conventionally and commercially available toy whistle having a mouthpiece 12 and a generally elongated tubular member 14 generally constructed of paperboard or an equivalent material. Extending outwardly from the outer end of the elongated member 14 is a flattened paper member 16 having upper and lower portions 18 and 20 providing an air passage and which is maintained in a spiral condition by a wire or spring member 22 disposed in underlying relation to a cover portion 19 of the paper member 16 whereby air pressure entering the paper member 16 through mouthpiece 12 and between the upper and lower portions 18 and 20 will inate the same and straighten the same for movemeut of the paper member 16 from a spiral condition illustrated in Figure l to the condition illustrated in Figure 2. The outer end of the paper member 16 is provided with decorative feathers 24 and a reinforcement member 26 and the device is provided with a conventional whistle construction which is commercially available, the details of which are not shown.
:2,851,270 Patented Sept. 9, 1958 ice Disposed longitudinally in the toy whistle is an elongated rubber tube 28 having one end disposed concentrically within the mouthpiece 12 and having the other end ared outwardly as indicated by the numeral 30 and discharging at the outer end of the -attened paper member 16. The tube 28 is of flexible material for movement into the spiral condition along with the paper member andthe tube 28 is employed for discharging water thus forming a water discharging device.
In employing the present invention, the rubber tube is inserted in a conventional toy whistle and by filling the rubber tube with water with an eye dropper, ear syringe or a similar device, the child using the toy blows ordinarily hard for operating just the whistle in the usual manner. However, if the child blows harder or blasts the mouthpiece 12 with air, this will force a tine stream of water out of the end of the toy thus providing a toy which is capable of whistling in the form of an ordinary toy but also capable of discharging water in the form of a spray wherein the spray is discharged in a transversely widened manner for providing a mist or spray rather than a solid stream.
Figure 5 illustrates a squeeze 'bulb 32 having a reduced tubular neck 34 for attachment to the tube 28 for forcing water through the tube 28 when the bulb is squeezed when it contains water. This attachment permits the child to force water through the tube either by blowing or by using the squeeze ball.
The foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily Ioccur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to lthe exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly all suitable modications and equivalents may be restored to, falling Within the scope of the invention as claimed.
What is claimed as new is as follows:
1. A toy comprising an air operated toy construction including an elongated mouthpiece and a normally spiral wound elongated paper tubular member connected with one end of the mouthpiece whereby air forced through the mouthpiece into the paper tubular member will inilate and straighten the same, an elongated ilexible tube of small cross-sectional area relative to the mouthpiece disposed within said paper tubular member for movement therewith, said tube having one end projecting longitudinally from the other end of the mouthpiece for receiving a supply of water with the other end of the tube communicating with the atmosphere at the free end of the paper tubular member whereby water may be discharged from the other end of the tube when pressure is exerted on the one end of the tube when the tube has been provided with a supply of water.
2. The combination of claim l together with a hollow squeeze bulb for holding 'a supply of water having a hollow shank extending therefrom, said shank being inserted into the one end of the tube for causing discharge of the water from the other end of the tube by squeezing the bulb.
