Abstract: A toy police car includes a two-level cam, a sound assembly, a signal control assembly, a projection assembly, and a helicopter. The two-level cam includes an upper cam and a lower cam and is driven indirectly by an electric motor and a series of gears. The upper cam drives the projection assembly to project toy figures out of the car doors and a return spring causes the toy figures to return to their original position. The lower cam urges a push rod which controls the upward movement of the helicopter and another return spring causes the helicopter to return to its original position. The sound assembly is activated by the push rod to generate several sound effects. Another cam, indirectly driven by the motor, impinges an activation arm to control signal lights.

Abstract: A toy is provided with a catapult having a launching surface, a plurality of interlocking figures, similarly shaped and sized to be launched from the launching surface, and a wave-like undulating surface with which the interlocking figures also fit.

Abstract: A diaphragm type game call has at least one diaphragm mounted in a frame in such a way that the diaphragm cooperate with a part or parts of the frame to permit the tension of the diaphragm to be varied selectively, as by fixing the initial effective length of the diaphragm at the outboard edge of a leg of a U-shaped frame whereby the inboard edge serves as a fret of sorts to shorten the effective length of the diaphragm when the diaphragm is pushed against it by the tongue of the user, or by providing a fret intermediate the length of the diaphragm, or by providing one or both legs of a frame with channels into which and from which a diaphragm can be readily mounted and demounted to permit the selective tensioning of the diaphragm so mounted.

Abstract: An apparatus including a housing for mounting, including plural pairs of securement straps, with a forward face of the housing including a plurality of devices for use by an infant to provide entertainment and enhance manual dexterity of the infant, as well as the provision of a night light. The organization includes a manually displaceable and rotatable cylinder to effect selective illumination of the various colored panels within the cylinder. An audible producing pull toy component, a manually displaceable slide toy arrangement, and an audible bell member to accommodate and entertain various sensory portions of an infant are included.

Abstract: A connecting system for a toy building set comprises a first coupling part (11) and a second coupling part (12, 13), which are provided on their respective ones of a pair of building elements, adapted to be interconnected, and are formed with respective complementary coupling elements (11, 12, 13). The coupling parts in the connecting elements of the invention are adapted to interconnect the elements by elastic movement of at least one coupling part. This interconnection is flexible and may be fixed with a clamping device (16), which blocks the elastic movement.

Abstract: A toy device comprising a container and a handle attached to the container. A bib formed of sheet material is located within the hollow interior of the container, with one end portion of the bib being fixed within the container. The container has an opening and the bib may be selectively extended through the opening and outwardly of the container. When the bib is situated within the container, the toy device may be carried by a child via the handle as an amusement. When the handle is fixed about the neck of a child, the bib can be readily withdrawn from the container through the opening and then can be located over the chest of the child, thereby preventing spoilage when the child eats or drinks food.

Abstract: A chassis module for removably mounting in an opening in the fuselage of a model airplane is arranged to support an engine, a radio, receiver, a fuel tank, a battery and servomechanisms controlled by the radio receiver to control the engine throttle and movable flight control surfaces on the model airplane. The module may include energy absorbers to provide protection to the chassis module and the components mounted thereto in the event of a crash of the model airplane. A magnetically operated latching reed switch is disclosed for applying and removing on-board battery power to the on-board electrical equipment by the use of a magnet brought near the vicinity of the switch from outside the model airplane.

Abstract: A doll is provided having a permanently imprinted doll face on a flap overlying a blank face plate. When the flap is in a down position, the doll is played-with in a conventional manner. When the flap is raised, the plate is revealed and the child can draw face designs on the plate. A first set of facial features and related decorative items such as hair arrangements, bonnets, bows and the like are displayed when the flap overlies the plate. A corresponding second set of the above become revealed when the flap is lifted. The flap includes straps which releasably secure the flap when positioned over the face plate or, over the doll head back side.

Abstract: An improved mausoleum includes a support frame made of fiberglass structural members and a plurality of sealed fiberglass caskets which are proof against deterioration. The mausoleum according to the invention eliminates the need for venting and drainage, greatly simplifies construction of the mausoleum, and reduces funeral expenses. In preferred embodiments, each of the fiberglass caskets has a pair of central lateral flanges, and the support structure includes a plurality of pairs of parallel rails made of fiberglass spaced apart so that the caskets can be inserted between the rails and supported thereon by the central lateral flanges of each casket.

Abstract: A ground cover sheet for retaining bark dust and bark chips in place in a landscaping arrangement includes a base sheet and a cover sheet. A plurality of rows of short slits are spaced along the length of the cover sheet. The cover sheet is heat welded to the base sheet in a manner to cause bows formed by the spaced slits to extend convexly upwardly. These upwardly extending bows serve to retain bark dust and bark chips in place on the ground cover sheet. The base and cover sheets are preferably formed from a flexible plastic material of a brown color to match the bark dust. The base sheet is formed from a four mils thick material and the cover sheet is formed from a six mils thick material. The upwardly extending bows on the cover sheet may be reinforced with a nylon filament material.
