ABSTRACT:
A crib toy is disclosed having a labyrinth for the passage of a ball from an elevator unloading station of high gravitational potential to an elevator loading station of low gravitational potential. At the loading station, the ball is blocked by a weighted lever awaiting the presence of the elevator car. The car when present overcomes bias of the lever and allows the ball to pass into the car. The lever biases the car to be loaded with respect to an elevator shaft for ball loading. When the elevator is raised to the unloading station of high gravitational potential, an overcenter pulley cants the car and expels the ball. The labyrinth, typically provided with one transparent wall and a series of serpentine gravitationally biased paths, then causes the balls to pass along a circuitous and amusing path. Operation of the disclosed weighted lever prevents jamming of the elevator shaft path with the presence of the ball to provide an amusing and foolproof toy which can be operated by infants.
