  • Patent number: 3939603
    Abstract: A wheel game is used by a player as a form of amusement. The wheel game includes a two sectional telescoping control stick and a wheel having a center hub and outer rim, wherein the outer rim is joined to the center hub by a plurality of flat spoke members. The control stick is applied tangentially to the outside periphery of the outer rim of the wheel causing the wheel to rotate in a vertical plane and be rolled across a horizontal plane. The center hub is made hollow to form a central chamber and having a side aperture for insertion and removal of a plurality of solid elements. The solid elements are instrumental in generating noise as a result of their striking the walls of the chamber when the wheel is rolled. The side aperture is provided with screw threads and a screw threaded cap for retaining the elements in the chamber.
