GISTAVE IIAAG, 0F FLI'SIIING, NE YURK.
TOP.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 453,473, dated June 2, 1891.
Application filed December 4,1890. Serial No. 373,537. (Modeld To a]! 11-71 am, it may concern:
Be it known that I, GUSTAVE Haas, of Flushing, in the county of Queens and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Tops, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part thereof.
My invention relates to an improvement in tops, in which is contained a spring and a rotary spindle, the object of my invention be ing to provide atop of simple construction adapted to be spun by means of such spring.
I will now proceed to describe my invention in detail, and then point out the novel features in the claim.
Figure l is a view in sideclcvation of a top embodying my invention. Fig. 9 is a central vertical section of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a plan of the same.
Similar letters of reference designate oorre sponding parts in all the figures.
In the drawings I have represented the top as being in the form of a tcetotuln, the body portion A being octagonal in shape and having the numbers from 1 to 8, inclusive, delineated, respectively, on the faces a of said octagonatshapcd body. The said body A has a portion B attached theretoorintegral therewith, which terminates in a point Z1, upon which the top may be spun. On the opposite end the said body portion is provided with a cap or cover A.
As clearly shown in Fig. 2, the portion A is hollow and contains therein a spring 0. (Here shown as a coil-spring.) The said spring surronndsaspindle B,andis securelyattached at one end 0 thereto. Its opposite end 0 is secured to the body A of the top. lhe spindle I) has a bearing (1 at its lower end in the body A and at its upper end in the aforesaid cap or cover A. attached to the spindle D, and,hearingagainst the under side of the cap A, keeps the spindle in position. The spindle is further provided with an eye or finger-piece D on the outside of said body portion. In order to spin the top, the body A should be grasped in one hand and the finger-piece D in the other. The requisite tension may then be placed on the spring by turning these parts in opposite directions, the said tension being obtained and the top being held over the surface on which it is intended to be spun. The body portion may be released slightly in advance of the iinger-piece when the top will be found to have obtained considerable momentum.
What I claim is- The herein-described top, eomprisi nga body portion polygonal in cross-section and pro vided with a central socket extending from its top to a point near the bottom, a cap scoured to the top of the body portion over the end of the socket, a spindle seated at its lower end in a hearing at the bottom of the socket and extending upwardly through the cap and developed into an eye at its upper end, and a spring coiled around the spindle within the socket, one end of the spring being secured to the body portion at the bottom of the socket and the other end secured to the spindle at or near the under face of the cap, the spindle being free to turn within the body portion, substantially as set forth.
