Abstract
A push wheel toy is disclosed where a handle is attached to pair of wheels on an axle. The axle is contorted so that the wheels are not necessarily parallel nor will the toy move in a straight line unless carefully controlled. The handle is loosely attached so that any point along the axle may be used to propel the toy. The toy may not only be used as a simple push toy, but may also be useful in therapy for those suffering motor control disability, and as a game between several individuals.

A toy comprising a bent axle having a wheel attached to each end by a wheel connecting means, said axle being attached through a connecting means to a handle for applying propulsion and guidance, wherein said connecting means loosely engages said axle along the extent of said axle between the wheels or wheel connecting means so that a movement of said toy is responsive to any chosen position of said connecting means on said axle and direction of pressure on said handle.
A push toy for teaching motor coordination and skills comprising a contorted undulating axle having a wheel attached to each end by wheel connecting means, said axle being attached through a connecting means to a handle for applying propulsion and guidance, wherein said handle is displaced from said axle by said connecting means having an elongated portion and a portion which loosely engages said axle at any point between the wheels or said wheel connecting means in such a manner that said toy may be propelled in a variety of directions by alteration of position of said connecting means on said axle and direction of pressure on said handle.
