ABSTRACT:
A wheeled toy is provided with a frame which includes a vertically extending post on the upper end of which is fixedly mounted an inverted cup-shaped member. The frame is supported for movement over a supporting surface by means of a pair of wheels which are journaled in the frame and are mounted nonsymmetrically with respect to said post, the frame including an elongated handle by means of which the toy may be rolled along a support surface. An inner member shaped similarly to the fixed cup-shaped member is rotatably mounted on the post and is driven directly by one of the wheels through an annular flange portion of the inner member which rests on the upper edge of said one wheel. This inner member includes a flange portion which extends outwardly beyond the bottom edge of the fixed cup-shaped member, a pair of cover members being biased to an upright position when the toy is at rest substantially to enclose the fixed cup-shaped member. As the toy is moved along a support surface, the inner member rotates and the hinged cover members open outwardly against the biasing force, due to the centrifugal force exerted thereon, so that the normally enclosed cup-shaped member becomes visible. The biasing force returns the cover members to their enclosing position when movement of the toy ceases.
