Description
Oct. 27, 1964 MASAMI SEMBA BIRD TOY Filed May 18, 1962 INVENTOR Mas/um Same/1 BY I ATTORNEYS United States Patent 3,153,871 BIRD TOY Masami Samba, Tokyo, Japan, assignor to Louis Marx & C0., Inc, New York, N.Y., a corporation of New York Filed May 18, 1962, Ser. No. 195,707 3 Claims. (Cl. 40-10632) This invention relates to animated figures, particularly toys, and, more particularly, to a novel animated toy bird having a body with movable appendages and novel mechanism for effecting the animation of the appendages.
Animated toy animals are known to the art. Generally, these include a motor driven mechanism, such as an electric motor or spring motor driven mechanism, for animating various appendages movably connected to the body. However, the arrangements used hitherto have been relatively complicated and expensive, as well as difiicult to construct and assemble. Consequently, their cost has been such that they have not found widespread popular acceptance.
The present invention is directed to a novel animated toy, preferably in the form of a toy bird such as a toy parrot, and which has movable appendages which are animated by a novel and simplified type of mechanism which is not only inexpensive but may be assembled easily within the body of the toy bird. Thus, with the present invention animated toys can be produced which are simple in construction and easy to assemble, and consequently may be sold at a relatively low price. While the invention will be described more particularly as applied to a toy parrot, it will be understood that this is by way of example only and that the principles of the invention are applicable equally to other animated toys or figures.
For an understanding of the principles of the invention, reference is made to the following description of a typical embodiment thereof as illustrated in the accompanying drawing. In the drawing:
FIG. 1 is a front elevational view of a toy parrot embodying the invention, with the animating mechanism being shown in solid lines and the outlines of the body of the bird and its appendages being shown in broken lines; and
FIG. 2 is a side elevational view of a toy parrot embodying the invention, the animating mechanism again being shown in full lines and the outlines of the body of the bird and its appendages being shown in broken lines.
Referring to the drawings, the invention is illustrated as embodied in a toy bird, such as a toy parrot, having a hollow body 1 provided with a head 3 which is rotatable relative to the body 1 and has a movable beak part 2. Wings 4 and a tail are movably, such as swingably, connected to the body 1. The movable beak part 2 is pivoted to head 3 at 2a, nearer one end than the other, and the irmer end of beak part 2 is pivotally interconnected with a link 6 whose other end is connected to a crank 7 which is rotated by the driving mechanism. A second connecting rod or link 9 is connected to the crank 7 at one end, and its other end is connected to a moving member or operator for the tail, this moving member being pivoted to body 1 at a point 8 spaced from the connection of the link 9 thereto.
A bent rod 11 and a bent rod 13 are swingably connected to a frame 19 for the driving mechanism. Bent rod 11 has a generally horizontally extending portion 15 and an upwardly extending portion 11a, and the latter extends through a radial slot 14 in the rotatable mounting for the head 3. This rotatable mounting comprises a pair of superposed circular plates each having a peripheral flange, and the plates being relatively rotatable about a pin at their centers. The slot 14 is formed in the upper of the two plates, which is the plate secured to the head 3.
3,153,871 Patented Oct. 27, 1964 A connecting rod 17 is pivotally connected at one end to the horizontal portion 15 of the bent rod 11, and has its opposite end connected to the crank portion 16 of a crank shaft 16a which has a disk 1 fixed thereon and formed with a number of peripheral projections or fingers 18. These projections 18 are successively engageable with a part 12 of the rod 13. A spring 20, secured between frame 10 and the rod 13, maintains rod part 12 in continuous engagement with the disk 19 and projections 18. Rod 13 has a free end engageable in substantially rectilinear slots 21a in arm operating members 21 each of which is pivoted, as at 4a, and has a free portion extending along a wing 4. An electric motor 22 is provided, and has reduction gearing associated therewith operable to rotate the cranks 7 and 16.
When motor 22 is energized, the cranks 7 and 16 will be rotated. The beak part 2 will be opened and closed through the medium of the connecting rod or link 6, and the tail 5 will be swung through the medium of the connecting rod 9 which is connected, at its lower end, to the tail operating member 5 pivoted at 8. The connecting link 17, which is connected between the crank 16 and the part 15 of the rod 11a, will oscillate rod 11 so that upwardly extending part 11:: of rod 11 will oscillate the head 3 through a small are about a vertical axis.
As the projections 18 of the disk 19 successively engage the part 12 of the rod 13, when the disk 19 is rotated by the motor 22 and its associat d reduction gearing, the rod 13 will be oscillated in timed relation with the rotation of the crank 16. As a result, the wings 4 will be moved up and down about the pivots 4a and thus will give the effect of fluttering.
If desired, the animating mechanism of the present invention may have combined therewith a suitable sound device so that the toy bird will be realistic and interesting. It will be noted that the animating mechanism is simple and consists of only a few very simple parts. Thereby, the mechanism of the present invention is simple and inexpensive to manufacture, rugged and practical in operation, and has a long life, in addition to providing a very realistic motion of the appendages of the bird.
While a specific embodiment of the invention has been shown and described in detail to illustrate the application of the principles of the invention, it will be understood that the invention may be embodied otherwise without departing from such principles.
