Toy Vehicular Drive Apparatus

View page
US Patent:
58656618, Feb 2, 1999
Filed:
Oct 3, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/943542
Inventors:
Peter Cyrus - Seattle WA
Steve Proctor - Seattle WA
Sean Cryan - Seattle WA
Rich Franko - Seattle WA
Matt Gibson - Spokane WA
Peter M. Maksymuk IV - New York NY
Leo M. Fernekes - New York NY
Stefan Rublowsky - Brooklyn NY
Eduard Kogan - Howard Beach NY
Scott J. Kolb - New York NY
Eric S. Moore - New York NY
Dmitriy Yavid - Brooklyn NY
Christopher S. Cosentino - Staten Island NY
Assignee:
Parvia Corporation - Seattle WA
International Classification:
A63H 3300
A63H 1800
US Classification:
446136
Abstract:
A toy vehicular drive apparatus includes a first roadway having an electrically conductive underside and a second roadway having an electrically conductive top and being under the first roadway. A subsurface powered vehicle is movable on the second roadway and has electrically conductive elements in contact with the electrically conductive underside of the first roadway and in contact with the electrically conductive top of the second roadway. A power source connected to the first roadway and the second roadway electrically energizes the first roadway and the second roadway to provide power to the powered subsurface vehicle. The toy vehicular drive apparatus also includes a surface vehicle movable on the top of the first roadway. A magnet on the surface vehicle and a magnet on the powered subsurface vehicle provide interconnection of the surface vehicle and the powered subsurface vehicle to cause movement of the surface vehicle in response to movement of the powered subsurface vehicle.

US Patent:
61027707, Aug 15, 2000
Filed:
Oct 3, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/943563
Inventors:
Peter Cyrus - Seattle WA
Rich Franko - Seattle WA
Peter M. Maksymuk IV - New York NY
Leo M. Fernekes - New York NY
Stefan Rublowsky - Brooklyn NY
Eduard Kogan - Howard Beach NY
Scott J. Kolb - New York NY

Christopher S. Cosentino - Staten Island NY
Assignee:
Parvia Corporation - Seattle WA
International Classification:
A63H 1800
A63H 3326
A63H 3000
US Classification:
446444
Abstract:
The present invention is a guidance apparatus for movable toy vehicles that includes a track, or roadway, on which the toy vehicles move. The track has an intersection. The intersection has a guidance mechanism for steering the toy vehicles in alternate directions through the intersection. A sensing mechanism, i. e. , infrared emitters at the intersection and phototransistors in the vehicles, stops the vehicles prior to entering the intersection. The vehicles stopped at the intersection are then actuated after the mechanism for guiding the toy vehicles through the intersection has been actuated. Additionally, the vehicles stopped at the intersection can be actuated by a timing mechanism after passage of a predetermined time period. Furthermore, the vehicles stopped at the intersection can be actuated only after a mechanism for sensing vehicle presence in the intersection senses no vehicles in the intersection. Preferably, the guidance mechanism for steering the toy vehicles through the intersection includes a rotatable portion of the intersection that can be configured in more than one orientation to guide the toy vehicles in alternate directions based on the orientation of the rotatable portion.

US Patent:
63224151, Nov 27, 2001
Filed:
Mar 16, 2000
Appl. No.:
9/526950
Inventors:
Peter Cyrus - Seattle WA
Peter M. Maksymuk - New York NY
Leo M. Fernekes - New York NY
Stefan Rublowsky - Brooklyn NY
Eduard Kogan - Howard Beach NY

International Classification:
A63H 3326
US Classification:
446130
Abstract:
The present invention is a guidance apparatus for movable toy vehicles that includes a track, or roadway, on which the toy vehicles move. The truck has an intersection. The intersection has a magnetic guidance mechanism for steering the toy vehicles in alternate directions through the intersection. An intersection magnetic sensing mechanism, i. e. , electromagnets at the intersection and magnets in the vehicles, stops the vehicles prior to entering the intersection. Additionally, the vehicles stopped at the intersection can be actuated by a timing mechanism after passage of a predetermined time period. Furthermore, the vehicles stopped at the intersection can be actuated only after a mechanism for sensing vehicle presence in the intersection senses no vehicles in the intersection.

Optoelectric Remote Control Apparatus For Guiding Toy Vehicles

US Patent:
60074019, Dec 28, 1999
Filed:
Oct 3, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/943540
Inventors:
Peter Cyrus - Seattle WA
Peter M. Maksymuk - New York NY
Leo M. Fernekes - New York NY
Stefan Rublowsky - Brooklyn NY
Eduard Kogan - Howard Beach NY
Scott J. Kolb - New York NY
Eric S. Moore - New York NY
Dmitriy Yavid - Brooklyn NY
Christopher S. Cosentino - Staten Island NY
Assignee:
Parvia Corporation - Seattle WA
International Classification:
A63H 1808
US Classification:
446175
Abstract:
The present invention is a control apparatus for guiding toy vehicles on a roadway. Preferably, a remote control hand unit is employed that is most preferably optoelectric. The hand unit includes a plurality of direction keys that transmit signals from the hand unit based on their electronic interconnection with an infrared LED and a laser transmitter in the hand unit. The hand unit transmits directional commands to control movement of a toy vehicle through the intersection of a roadway. These control commands are transmitted via a modulated infrared signal that is received by an infrared sensor adjacent the roadway. Additionally, the hand unit transmits a location laser signal to one of many reception points, i. e. , laser detectors, located adjacent each road at an intersection.

Printer Having Interface Unit For Selecting Text Orientation

US Patent:
58761314, Mar 2, 1999
Filed:
Oct 14, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/949870
Inventors:
Kevin P. Parker - Berkeley CA
Leo M. Fernekes - New York NY
Stefan Rublowsky - Brooklyn NY
Peter M. Maksymuk IV - New York NY
Rebecca Chan - Kew Gardens NY
Assignee:
Powis-Parker, Inc. - Berkeley CA
International Classification:
B41J 2116
US Classification:
400279
Abstract:
A printer for printing on a binder strip and having a platen for supporting the binder strip, a print head mechanism and a print head controller. An interface unit is provided which includes indicia formed on the housing of the unit indicative of the spine of a bound book. The indicia includes three regions that represent three zones of the spine, with the three regions each having as associated visual indicator and switch for enabling a user to select a spine zone. A user can enter text, using a keyboard, to be printed on spine zone when the visual indicator associated with the spine zone has been made active using the associated switch.
