ABSTRACT:
A display unit simulating a flying object and having an electric motor mounted on a support structure, a rotatably driven member drivingly engaged on the driven shaft of the motor, the driven member has a hole located adjacent its periphery, a thin, tempered wire of a small diameter is attached at one end to the driven member and the flying object is attached to the other end of the wire. One end of the wire is formed as a crank portion which is inserted loosely in the hole in the member whereby when the driven member is rotated, the wire is not bodily rotated around the member but is more slowly swung around, and the object assumes a flying fluttering motion due to the vibrations through the wire from the motor. The object is drivingly rotated in a swinging and erratic motion around the unit but at much slower rate of rotation than the motor shaft and member.
