In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention there is provided a hoop having an inner circumference that generally forms a circle with an inner diameter sufficient to receive portion of a human body therethrough. A weighted member is slidably secured onto the hoop to increase a centrifugal force of the hoop when in use. The weighted member has a central body with two ends diametrically opposed and has a hollow channel aligned with the two ends. The two ends being sized to slide ove...

A controller for a radio-controlled toy, comprising a housing, a first interface disposed on a first side of the housing, a second interface disposed on a second side of the housing, and a steering wheel having a steering shaft, the steering shaft being adapted to be inserted into either of the first and second interfaces.

A box-type turkey call has not only a pin that pivotally interconnects the call's base to the call's paddle-like actuator but also a fastener that allows endless disconnection and re-connection of the actuator-to-base connection. That way, the actuator can be rolled over a half a roll to present the opposite broad side thereof for production of calls. The actuator's handle is bored through with a lock hole, which allows insertion of a locking fastener through it that is then tightened into a soc...

A block set for assembling solid creations uses at least two types of cylindrical blocks. The cylindrical blocks are a thin cylindrical block and a thick cylindrical block. The thick cylindrical block may include a hole on a side face thereof for receiving the thin cylindrical block. A fabricating apparatus for fabricating the thin and thick cylindrical blocks has at least two types of rollers for rolling up paper, and a paper thickness notifying apparatus for notifying the user of the diameter ...

A child training system is provided, including a doll having a soft, hollow compressible leg reservoir; a hollow torso; a head formed with a mouth orifice into which liquid can be introduced; and a liquid discharge orifice containing a supply assembly of tubing and a check valve disposed so as to supply liquid to the leg reservoir.

A toy for teaching the logical thought process of computer programming has a plurality of stackable blocks with each block having a memory for the storage of at least one computer programming instruction. When the plurality of stackable blocks are mechanically stacked, a plurality of instructions are electrically connected forming a computer program. A main block is configured so that the plurality of stackable blocks can be mechanically stacked on the main block. A computer is electrically conn...

An airplane flying toy includes a longitudinal frame bearing a wing and a stabilizer, a propeller rotatably disposed at an end of the frame, a force generating device attached to the longitudinal frame and adapted to impart a rotary motion to the propeller by a rotatable shaft, and a propeller protector extending at least partially around and longitudinally beyond the propeller, the propeller connector being connected by struts to the longitudinal frame.

A toy is comprised of a propulsion system, such as a frame rollably supported by one or more driven wheels. The toy may be configured generically to include one or more platforms and a mounting bracket for connecting or supporting a variety of elements for transport and the remote control is used to control the toy, such as to cause the toy to move forward, in reverse, to stop, and to turn. In one embodiment the toy is utilized to entertain a pet, the toy having an animal likeness connected ther...

A radio-controlled electrically-powered model flying wing aircraft having a pusher propeller at the rear wing root powered by an electric motor mounted in a streamlined electric motor housing that extends into the wing and blends smoothly into the wing surface at the center wing chord. The motor housing, motor and propeller extend beyond the wing trailing edges to ensure efficient propeller operation and to reduce propeller-induced noise. A battery is secured in a resilient pouch and protected c...

A riding toy includes a body simulating a physical object and having a recessed area adapted to receive a human rider's torso. A harness is adapted to be worn by a human carrier, such that the rider is supported in front of the carrier and the body is supported in front of the rider. The body may take on various forms including vehicles and animals, and may include one or more interactive features. The body may also be worn directly by the rider, or may be mounted on a rolling chassis.
