Embodiment Construction

[0015]Referring to the drawings and particularly to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, one form of the buoyant water toy of the invention is there shown and generally designated by the numeral 14. The water toy here simulates the shape of a seahorse and is uniquely designed so that it can be propelled through the water by a rider straddling the toy in the manner illustrated in FIG. 1.

[0016]In the present form of the invention, the water toy comprises a generally upright, moldable hollow plastic body 16 having an upper portion 18, a generally head-shaped portion 20, a lower, generally tail-shaped portion 22 and an intermediate portion 24.

[0017]Connected to and extending outwardly from the intermediate portion of body 16 is a molded plastic rider supporting seat 26 for supporting the rider. As indicated in FIG. 1 of the drawings, the rider supporting seat is vertically positioned to permit the desired submergence depth of a rider in the water.

[0018]Connected to the upper portion of body 16 are right a...

Abstract

A buoyant water toy constructed from a moldable plastic that simulates the shape of a seahorse and can be propelled through the water by a rider straddling the body of the toy and peddling a bicycle-like foot-engaging pedal mechanism connected to the body of the toy.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates generally to water toys. More particularly, the invention concerns a buoyant water toy simulating the shape of a seahorse that can be propelled through the water by a rider straddling the body of the toy and peddling a bicycle-like foot-engaging pedal mechanism connected to the body of the toy.[0003]2. Discussion of the Prior Art[0004]A number of prior art water cycles of various designs have been suggested in the past. Typically, the prior art water cycles are of a boat-like construction in which the user is supported above the surface of the water and propels the device through the water using foot operated pedal and propeller mechanisms of various designs. As a general rule, the prior art water cycles are bulky and difficult to transport and store.[0005]Those prior art devices which are designed for a rider to get wet and to be propelled through the water are often of a relatively comple...
