Abstract: A game apparatus in which the spiral spring is wound up by only operation of a handle or the like. The game apparatus comprises an operation member; a movement body for moving reciprocally in accordance with an operation of the operation member; a spiral spring used as a power source; a spiral spring winding-up mechanism for winding up the spiral spring by the operation of the operation member so as to store an energy in the spiral spring; a rotating member which has a display of a path for the movement body and is rotatable; and a power transmitting gear for transmitting the stored energy of the spiral spring to the rotating member to rotate; wherein one end of the spiral spring is engaged with a shaft of the spiral spring winding-up mechanism, which is rotated by the operation of the operation member, and the other end of the spiral spring is engaged with the power transmitting gear so as to enable rotation of the rotating member while the spiral spring is wound up.

Abstract: A pneumatic toy including a board provided with a runway, a body for running along the runway, an air chamber formed within the board, a blower for supplying air to the air chamber, a plurality of holes associated with the board which communicate with the air chamber and which are inclined relative to the board to direct air against the running body to propel same along the runway.

Abstract: A radio-controlled car capable of making a high-speed turn on the spot is provided. The radio-controlled car provides a controller and a car designed to run forward and turn by changing the direction of rotation of a motor. A first driving wheel is fixedly mounted on one end of a driving shaft of the car and an idly rotatable second driving wheel is mounted on the other end of the driving shaft. A gear mechanism for driving the second driving wheel includes a sun gear mounted on a shaft and planetary gears rotatable around the sun gear on the center of the shaft of the sun gear. The planetary gears are designed to alternately mesh with two gears which rotate in different directions, in accordance with a change in the direction of rotation of the motor. A controller is provided in the radio controlled car and includes a charging circuit for recharging rechargeable batteries therein without requiring a separate charger or having to remove the batteries.

Abstract: An automatic transmission for a toy vehicle includes a pinion having a driving side and a driven side and being fixedly coupled to a shaft, a high speed gear coupled to the pinion through a first clutch, and a low speed gear coupled to the pinion through a second, uni-directional clutch, wherein the second clutch slips in response to the first clutch being engaged to rotate the pinion at a relatively high speed, and wherein the first clutch slips when a predetermined force is applied to the driven side of the pinion, whereby the second clutch is engaged to rotate the pinion at a relatively low speed.

Abstract: A spring driven toy is described, including a base; an operation member movably mounted on the base; a spring unit for moving the movable operation member relative to the base; a speed control mechanism connected to the spring unit; a lever selectively movable between a position engaged to the speed control mechanism to prevent the spring unit from operating and a position disengaged therefrom to allow the spring unit to operate, said lever including a first magnetic substance; and a separate body having a second magnetic substance and being magnetically attachable to the movable operation member adjacent the first magnetic substance of the lever and movable with the movable operation member.

Abstract: A moveable toy which includes a motor for producing motion. Associated with the motor is a motor controller for accelerating and deaccelerating the motor. A rotary element is driven by the motor. Associated with the rotary element is a flywheel which is capable of being rotated by the rotary element, but is also capable of independent rotation. The flywheel is further associated with a switch which governs the output of the motor to several moving elements located on the toy. The flywheel interacts with the switch to shift the output to the individual moving elements each time the speed of the flywheel differs from that of the rotating element. The motor controller deaccelerates the motor which in turn deaccelerates the rotating element upon command of the operator of the toy.

Abstract: A remote control toy has a main housing and a remote housing. A radio receiver is located in the main housing for receiving transmitted radio signals. The main housing includes a plurality of elements moveably mounted thereon which are set in motion by a motor in response to receipt of transmitted radio signals by the radio receiver. The remote housing incorporates a radio transmitter. The transmitter includes an electrical circuit having an antenna, a piezoelectric element for generating a current and an electrical component which is capable of generating a radio frequency signal in response to current flow through the electrical circuit. The remote housing further includes a moving member which is moved by the operator of the toy. The moving member is associated with the piezoelectric element to impact a mechanical force on the piezoelectric element for generation of an electrical current in the electrical circuit.

Abstract: A toy vehicle is supported on one end by at least one wheel and on the other end by a fly wheel which is capable of being energized by pulling a gear rack across a pinion which is connected to the fly wheel. On one of the side surfaces of the fly wheel, a material is located which, when contacted by a flint, is capable of emitting sparks. A flint holding member is positioned adjacent to the fly wheel with a flint located on the flint holding member so as to contact the material on the side of the fly wheel. In conjunction with rotation of the fly wheel, sparks are emitted from contact of the flint with the material. Thus, as the car is propelled across a support surface by the fly wheel a trail of sparks are given off.

Abstract: A toy racing game includes at least one vehicle powered by a windup spring motor and a track on which the vehicle runs. The vehicle includes an exposed winding member which when rotated winds up the spring motor. An energizing station is located in association with the track and this station is capable of interacting with the vehicle winding member to wind the spring motor. The energizing station includes an engagement mechanism which moves out from the station and contacts the vehicle to retain the vehicle in association with the station. The engagement mechanism includes a retaining member which so retains the vehicle and a motion transfer member which engages with the winding member on the vehicle. Rotation of the motion transfer member is transferred to the winding member to energize the vehicle's spring motor. The vehicle is allowed to propel itself on the track when the engagement mechanism moves away from the vehicle back towards the station.
