Toy vehicle with wheels each having a first disk with windows and a second disk with indicia alignable with the windows

Abstract

According to an aspect of the invention, there is provided a toy vehicle. The vehicle includes a vehicle body and at least two wheels. The wheels each include a first disk, and spindle and a second disk. The first disk includes a first disk periphery. The first disk includes first and second windows. The spindle extends through the second disk with the second disk disposed between the first disk and the body. A portion of a second disk periphery extends beyond the first disk periphery. The second disk includes first and second sets of indicia. Rotation of the second disk sequentially aligns various ones of the first set of indicia with the first window and various ones of the second set of indicia with the second window.

1 . A toy vehicle comprising:
 a vehicle body; and   at least two wheels, each of the wheels including:
 a first disk having a first disk central portion, the first disk defined by a first disk periphery, the first disk including a first window and a second window; 
 a spindle extending between the first disk central portion and the vehicle body; and 
 a second disk including a second disk central opening, the spindle extending through the second disk central opening with the second disk disposed between the first disk and the vehicle body, the second disk defined by a second disk periphery, at least a portion of the second disk periphery extending beyond the first disk periphery, the second disk including a first set of indicia and a second set of indicia, rotation of the second disk sequentially aligns various ones of the first set of indicia with the first window and various ones of the second set of indicia with the second window. 
   
     
     
         2 . The toy vehicle of  claim 1  wherein the first set of indicia is textual and the second set of indicia is graphical. 
     
     
         3 . The toy vehicle of  claim 1  wherein the first disk includes a first disk first side and an opposing first disk second side, the first disk second side is disposed towards the second disk, the first disk further includes first side indicia disposed upon the first disk first side adjacent the first window. 
     
     
         4 . The toy vehicle of  claim 3  wherein the first side indicia is textual. 
     
     
         5 . The toy vehicle of  claim 4  wherein the first set of indicia is textual, alignment of various ones of the first set of indicia with the first window aligns with the first side indicia to form a combined textual unit with the first side indicia and the various ones of the first set of indicia. 
     
     
         6 . The toy vehicle of  claim 3  wherein the first disk further includes second side indicia disposed upon the first disk second side adjacent the first window. 
     
     
         7 . The toy vehicle of  claim 1  wherein the first window is disposed at a first window radius, the second window is disposed at a second window radius less than the first window radius. 
     
     
         8 . The toy vehicle of  claim 1  wherein the second disk including a second disk first side and an opposing second disk second side, the second disk second side is disposed towards the vehicle body, the first set of indicia and the second set of indicia are disposed on the second disk first side. 
     
     
         9 . The toy vehicle of  claim 8  wherein the second disk further includes a third set of indicia and a fourth set of indicia both disposed upon the second disk second side, rotation of the second disk sequentially aligns various ones of the third set of indicia with the first window and various ones of the fourth set of indicia with the second window. 
     
     
         10 . The toy vehicle of  claim 1  wherein the toy vehicle includes four wheels. 
     
     
         11 . The toy vehicle of  claim 1  wherein the first disk is rotationally fixed relative to the vehicle body. 
     
     
         12 . The toy vehicle of  claim 1  wherein the first and second disks are removably attached to the vehicle body. 
     
     
         13 . The toy vehicle of  claim 1  wherein the first disk is defined by a first disk radius, the second disk is defined by a second disk radius greater than the first disk radius.
