CLINGING FIGURE.
Application filed December 27, 1926. Serial No. 157,271.
This invention relates to toy and/ or decorative figures. The figures may be fanciful and they are preferably, though not necessarily,
inflatable. p
An object of my invention is the provision of a figure which is preferabl flexible so that it may be bended to any esired position. Another object of the invention is the provision of a figure having means whereby it may be held in any desired position.
With the foregoing object in View, together with such other ob] ects and advantages as may subsequently appear, this invention resides in the construction and arrangement-of parts hereinafter described and claimed, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which. 4 v
Figure 1 is a front elevation of one embodiment-of my invention; and I) Figure 2 is a seetiontaken on longitudinal median line of Figure 1.
Referring to the drawings the numeral .3 indicates the figure as a whole. Thisfigure is a fanciful picture of a Martian or inhabili tant of Mars. It is to be understood, however, that the figure of any design may be employed. The figure comprises a head 5, a neck 6, the body portion 7 arms 8, fingers 9, legs 10, and toes 11. l v I Vacuum cups 12 are held by the'fingers 9, vacuum cups 15 are held by the toes 11. The
figure, except the vacuum cups, is hollow and preferably is made of rubber. The head 5, the neck 6, the body portion 7, the arms down I to the points 17, and the legs down to the points 18, are preferably'of a thin rubber such as that used in toy balloons whereby the figure is of light weight and inflatable. The arms and legs below the points 17 and 18 respectively are also flexible but are preferably made of rubber of greater thickness than the upper portions of the arms and the legs.
By pressing the cups 12 and 15 against an object the arms and legs respectively may be held in any desired position and the figure I may thereby be held inflany position. It will be apparent that the'figure being flexible may be made to assume a great variety of positions,
for example: one leg may be placed in front of the otherand they may be spread apart; or
one of the cups 15 may be on a horizontal surface while the other cup 15 may be placed against the vertical surface. 'It will also be readily seen that the figure may be supported by one or both of the cups 12 with or without one or both'of the cups 15.
While I have described one embodiment of my invention, modifications thereof may be readily devised without departing from the spirit-of my invention, and it is'to be understood that such modifications comeiwithin the scope of the appended claims.
I claim: Y r
1. A figure having limbs extending there-. from and having suction cups ,formed integral with the extremities thereof whereby the suction cups constitute both hand and feet simulati ons and surface attaching means.
' 2. A figure having flexible limbs extending I therefrom and having suction cups formed integral with the extremities thereof whereby the suction cups constitute both hand and. feet simulations and surface attaching means.
