ABSTRACT:
The invention comprises an improved ring and swivel combination for attaching a toy such as a Yo-Yo or spinning top to the operator's finger. The ring includes a flexible strap for adjustable attachment to the finger. Preferably the strap comprises a portion of woven hooks and a complementary portion of woven loops such as that sold under the VELCRO trademark. The swivel comprises a cup attached to the strap and having a carefully formed hole in the cup bottom. The string attached to the toy passes through the hole and is knotted inside the cup. The knotted string and cup forms an effective swivel to prevent wind-up of the Yo-Yo or spinning top string.
The toy accessory may be used to control model race cars and model airplanes by using a pair of toy accessories attached to two fingers to replace the conventional dual control handle. The swivels allow the operator to guide the model in a circular patch without turning around to prevent wind-up of the pair of guide lines.
The toy accessory is also applicable to simple fishing kits that consist of a hook, line and sinker, the line merely being held in the hand. With the toy accessory the fishing line is conveniently attached to a finger or a wrist.
