134,182. Foster, G. H. June 17, 1919. Games of chance.-In a toy or apparatus of the kind in which a member turns freely on a vertical axis and is driven round by one or more aerial driving-organs such as the propeller of a suspended model of a self-driven aeroplane, &c., the driving-organ is carried by an element having a load-carrying device and means for releasing and discharging stage by stage a load of separate articles. As shown, the device comprises a poised arm 6, Fig. 1, which carries suspended model aeroplanes 8 and is pivoted on a vertical post 4 secured to a tray 1 having numbered com. partments 2 to receive balls dropped from the aeroplanes. The balls are released periodically by devices operated by clockwork which drives the propellers. The foremost of the balls 18. Fig. 4, retained in a race 10 in each aeroplane normally rests on a pivoted platform or ejector 20 and against a pivoted partition 19. At intervals, a pawl 17 on a rotating shaft of the driving- mechanism raises an arm 22 on the partition 19 and a link 23 moves the ejector to discharge a ball 18 through a slot 21.
