Abstract:
A toy for operator enjoyment and demonstration of skill is disclosed. The toy is capable of transferring the kinetic energy of the operator's hand motion into a small mass which transverses a rod from one end to the other in a cyclic manner. The kinetic energy imparted to the mass is partially stored and released at each end of the rod as the mass impacts stops and reverses direction of motion. The cyclic action of the mass is dependent upon its energy storing and releasing ability at the stops and the operator's skill to impart additional energy to the mass.
