Abstract
1,195,161. Aerodynamic toy. DE LUXE TOPPER CORP. 1 Jan., 1968 [29 May, 1967], No. 152/68. Heading B7W. [Also in Division F1] An aerodynamic toy comprises a lightweight generally spherical body 24 (which may have legs 25 to support it when at rest and to act as a keel weight in flight) and means (e.g. a fan 19 driven by an electric motor 14) for directing a stream of air at said body to cause said body to float while supported only by said airstream, and means for varying both the direction and velocity of said airstream. The direction of airflow of the fan 19 mounted on a lever 15 is varied by moving a handle 21 mounted on another lever 32, the two levers being connected by pivots to a first rod 35 having collars 43 which are mounted to allow the rod 35 to pivot about its axis without translational displacement, and a second rod 42 which is unsupported between its ends. The speed of the airflow may be varied by moving a lever 23 connected to a slider 55 of a variable resistor 56 in series with batteries 22 and the motor 14 which drives the fan 19.
