Orbiter with rocking motion

Claim 2

Means for producing rotational movement, including in combination, a rotatable member, a power source, and actuating mechanism connected to said power source and cause to rotate thereby, and manually operable controlled means connected to said rotatable member and rotatable therewith, said rotational control means being releasably connectable to said actuating mechanism to cause rotation of said rotatable member, and said rotational control means includes means actuable into releasable rocking engagement with said actuating mechanism when said rotational control means is reciprocated toward said actuating mechanism.

Claim 3

Means for producing rotational movement in accordance with claim 1, wherein said actuating mechanism is provided with means engageable with an element of said rotational control means when it is reciprocated toward said actuating mechanism.

Claim 4

Means for producing rotational movement in accordance with claim 2, wherein the means with which said actuating mechanism is provided comprise slots.

Claim 5

Means for producing rotational movemenT in accordance with claim 3, wherein said element is projectible into a slot and retractible therefrom.

Claim 6

Means for producing rotational movement in accordance with claim 4, wherein said element is spring biased in its projecting and retracting movements.

Claim 7

Means for producing rotational and rocking motion, including in combination, a rotatable member, a power source, an actuating mechanism connected to said power source and caused to rotate thereby, means for releasably connecting said rotatable member to said mechanism, and an enclosure, said enclosure being connected to said rotatable member and rotated thereby, rocking means on said rotatable member and connected to said enclosure to cause rocking of the enclosure and said rocking means being releasably connected to said actuating means and a sound producing apparatus is provided, and said sound producing apparatus is connected to and operated by said actuating mechanism.

Claim 8

Means for producing rotational and rocking motion, including in combination, a rotatable member, a power source, an actuating mechanism connected to said power source and caused to rotate thereby, means for releasably connecting said rotatable member to said mechanism, and an enclosure, said enclosure being connected to said rotatable member and rotated thereby, rocking means on said rotatable member and connected to said enclosure to cause rocking of the enclosure and said rocking means being releasably connected to said actuating means and a sound producing apparatus is provided, and said sound producing apparatus is connected to and operated by said actuating mechanism.

Claim 9

Means for producing rotational and rocking movement, including in combination a rotatable member, a power source, an actuating mechanism connected to said power source and caused to rotate thereby, means for releasably connecting said rotatable member to said mechanism, and an enclosure, said enclosure being connected to said rotatable member and rotated thereby, rocking means on said rotatable member and connected to said enclosure to cause rocking of the enclosure and said rocking means being releasably connected to said actuating means and said rocking means includes a reciprocal element connected at one end to said enclosure, rotary means, and the other end of said reciprocal element being in engagement with said rotary means to thereby impart reciprocal motion to said reciprocal element.

Claim 10

Means for producing rotational and rocking movement, including in combination a rotatable member, a power source, an actuating mechanism connected to said power source and caused to rotate thereby, means for releasably connecting said rotatable member to said mechanism, and an enclosure, said enclosure being connected to said rotatable member and rotated thereby, rocking means on said rotatable member and connected to said enclosure to cause rocking of the enclosure and said rocking means being releasably connected to said actuating means and said rocking means includes a reciprocal element connected at one end to said enclosure, rotary means, and the other end of said reciprocal element being in engagement with said rotary means to thereby impart reciprocal motion to said reciprocal element.

Claim 11

Means for producing rotational and rocking movement in accordance with claim 7, wherein means is provided for moving said reciprocal element laterally of said rotary means to remove the reciprocal element out of engagement with said rotary means.

Claim 12

Means for producing rotational and rocking movement in accordance with claim 7, wherein said rotary means includes a cam track and one end of said reciprocal element is in operative rocking producing engagement with said cam track.

Claim 13

Means for producing rotational and rocking movement in accordance with claim 9, wherein the cam track is provided on the periphery of said rotary means and the surface of said cam track is provided with a low point which gradually increases to a high point and means is provided on said rotary means permitting lateral movement of said reciprocal element solely when the cam track on the rotary means is at its low point with respect to the end of the reciprocal element.
