Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a marionette assembly and, in particular, is directed to a marionette assembly wherein a hand glove having separate sections for each of the fingers is the controller device.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a marionette assembly with a simple marionette controlling device which is interchangeable with either hand.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a marionette control device which can be readily interchanged with a plurality of marionettes.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide a marionette assembly which is simple in construction, which can be fabricated by mass-production techniques, and which is durable in play so that the toy is marketable to parents of young children at a relatively low cost.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of one possible embodiment of a marionette assembly in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a side elevational view thereof.
  • FIG. 3 is a rear elevational view thereof.
  • FIG. 4 is a fragmentary view showing in detail one alternative means for connecting the ends of the actuating cords to the extremities of the glove fingers.
  • FIG. 5 is a fragmentary view showing in detail a second alternative means for connecting each of the actuating cords to the extremities of the glove fingers.
  • the marionette assembly 10 comprises a marionette figure 12 having a movable jointed torso 28, movable jointed arms 14, and a movable head 16.
  • a pair of actuating cords l8 and 19 is attached at one end to each of the hand extremities 20 and 21 of the arms and a third actuating cord 22 is attached at one end to the top of the head 16 of the figure.
  • the other ends of the actuating cords are each attached as shown to a finger section extremity 24, 25, 26, respectively of a hand glove 27.
  • the remaining parts of the marionette figure such as the feet 34 and legs 29 are rigid in construction and are affixed to and supported in an upright position by a base 30 which also supports a suitably located simulated miniature musical instrument (xylophone 31) which can be played by the movement of the marionette hand-held strikers (32).
  • a small child can, by fitting a hand in the glove, coordinate the head, hand, and upper body movements of the marionette figure by independent manipulation of the three fingers of one hand to cause the marionette hand-held strikers to beat upon the simulated xylophone, the torso to bend, and the head of the figure to jiggle up and down.
  • the invention contemplates the glove 27 to be fabricated such that the pinkie finger and thumb sections are indentically constructed so that the glove may be used by both the left and right hands of a child.
  • the invention also comprehends the ends of the actuating cords to be anchored to the glove finger section extremities with snap-apart 36 or simple hook and eye 38 fittings as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 respectively, which will make it possible to use a single glove as the controller for different individual marionette figures similar in simplicity to the marionette hereinabove described.
