UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE;
DAVID CHARLES BALLINGER GRIFFITH, OF LONDON, ENGLAND.
TOY TRACK, OR COURSE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 530,767, dated December 11, 1894.
Application filed July 6,1894. Serial No. 616,773- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, DAVID CHARLES BAL- LINGER GRIFFITH, a subject of the Queen of Great Britain, and a resident of London, in the county of London, England, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Toy Tracks or Courses, (for which I have applied for a patent in Great Britain, No. 11,025, dated J une 7, 1894,) of which the following is a full,
clear, and exact specification thereof.
This invention relatesto toy race tracks or courses in which the rocking or oscillation of the track or course causes the objects on same to travel, and the same is fully described and I 5 shown in the accompanying drawings, in
Which- Figure 1 is a plan view of my invention; Fig. 2, cross section, through same.
(1 is a top plate having the grooves or aper- 2o tures f cut in same, and underneath which the tracks or guides bare secured to the bottom plate a. Upon the tracks or guides b the carriages g run and to which the desired object or figure such as the horse and rider his attached 2 5 by the pin or rod '5.
c are imitation hurdles or fences placed upon the upper plate 01 and underneath the hurdles or fences c the tracks b have raised portions so that thefigure h is raised sufficiently to clear said hurdles or fences 0, when moving round the track or guides I), thus having the appearance of leaping or jumping over the hurdles or fences c.
3 5 terial to resemble water if desired,
In Fig. 2 the carriages g are shown passing over the higher or raised portions of the track, the points j being the lowest.
The track may be held in the hands and rocked, or where it is too large for this purpose, it may be supported on a pivot In which rests in a cup or socket Z attached to the bottom plate (I.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patout, is-
In toy race tracks or courses a base plate, tracks or guides attached to said base plate, and having raised portions or inclines; carriages carrying figures which run upon said tracks or guides; an upper plate having grooves or apertures which correspond with, or lie over the tracks or guides aforesaid; hurdles or fences attached to said upper plate so as to be over the raised portion of the track or guides aforesaid; a cup or recess attached to the bottom plate; a pivot or support for engaging in said cup or recess and upon which the device may be rocked or oscillated; all in combination and substantially as described and illustrated.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand'this 7th day of June, 1894.
DAVID CHARLES BALLINGER GRIFFITH.
