Abstract
A toy, preferably for animals, is shaped as a hollow body with an inner labyrinth (9). An object such as a tidbit, may be caused to move along the labyrinth, in that e.g. a dog manipulates the hollow body. The hollow body is preferably shaped as a cube (3) with beveled edges, one side face of the cube being provided with an opening capable of receiving an insert member (2) and discharging the tidbit after it has passed through the labyrinth (9). Accordingly, a toy is provided, preferably for dogs, capable of meeting the natural needs of a dog with respect to the use of brain and olfactory sense.
Claims11
A toy for animals comprising:
- a hollow body having an interior space and an inner wall surface, and an opening defining both an entrance to and an exit from the hollow body whereby the interior space is in communication with an exterior of the hollow body;
- and a path formed in the hollow body, said path being defined by the inner wall surface of the hollow body and a further side face which is formed by a tubular member, said tubular member having an aperture in communication with said opening, said aperture being adjacent an interior wall surface of the hollow body so that an object may enter through the opening, pass through a portion of the tubular member, follow said path and exit through said aperture in response to manipulation of said hollow body member.
A toy for animals, comprising:
- a hollow body having an inner wall, and an opening defining both an entrance to, and an exit from, the hollow body;
- a tubular member removably inserted in said opening, the tubular member including a side face;
- and
- a path formed in the hollow body, said path being defined by the inner wall of the hollow body and the side face of the tubular member.
A toy for animals, comprising:
- a hollow body having an interior space and an inner wall surface, and an opening defining both an entrance to, and an exit from, the hollow body;
- a first path extending into the interior space from an exterior of the hollow body;
- a second path within the interior space defined by a plurality of sloped walls projecting from the inner wall surface into the interior space, said second path leading to said opening and communicating with the exterior of the hollow body;
- wherein an object can be introduced into the interior space of said hollow body through said first path, and due to manipulation of said hollow body the object is able to move along said second path and exit from said hollow body through said opening.
