ABSTRACT:
A toy having combined rotational motion about a horizontal axis and translational motion in a vertical direction. Two parallel discs are connected through their centers by a single axle. One end of a torsion resistant tape is attached to the axle, at a position between the two discs. A swivel system is attached to the other end of the tape, and a ring for holding the toy is attached to the swivel system. In order to operate the toy, the user's finger is placed in the ring and an up-and-down motion is initiated. The balance of the toy during operation is facilitated by the support provided to the axle along the width of the tape.
