Optical illusion device for concealing an object, animal or the like to be produced
| Details |
Inventors: Adams, Joseph H.;
Assignee: S.S. Adams Company (Neptune, NJ)
Primary Examiner: Pinkham; Richard C.
Assistant Examiner: Kramer; Arnold W.
Attorney, Agent or Firm: Bobis; Daniel H.
A device for creating an optical illusion and for concealing an object, animal or the like to be produced defines, a space in which a reflective member is transversely disposed to divide the space into two compartments. In the device the optical illusion is effected in the first or lower compartment by a lined design on the inner walls of the compartment and the operative association of the coated peripheral edges of the reflective device which blend into and form part of the design to create the effect of double the space represented by the first or lower compartment. The second or upper compartment is concealed behind the reflective device and will hold the object, animal or the like to be produced. Access for viewing the first or lower compartment or for producing the object, animal or the like device from the second or upper compartment is accomplished by closure members which normally maintain the compartments closed and which are in alignment with each other so that when swung to open position away from each other the optical illusion can be enhanced. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1.
An optical illusion device for providing a compartment to conceal an object, animal and the like to be produced including; a.
box like means having a top, a bottom, and side means connected to the top and bottom, b.
said top, bottom, and side means respectively each having an inner wall means and defining therebetween a space, c.
a reflective means having a reflective surface, and peripheral edges mounted in the box like means transversely of the medial section of said space to divide said space into a first compartment on the side of said reflective means having the reflective surface and a second compartment on the side of the reflective means remote from the reflective surface, d.
a part of the side means and a part of the bottom associated with the reflective surface of the reflective means to define therewith the first compartment, e.
a part of the top and a part of the side means are associated with the remote side of the reflective means to define therewith the second compartment, f.
a first closure means in said side means pivotally connected adjacent said bottom and normally disposed to maintain said first compartment closed, said first closure means movable from closed to open position to permit said first compartment to be viewed.
g.
a second closure means spaced from said first closure means in the top pivotally connected adjacent said side means and normally disposed to maintain said second compartment closed, said second closure means movable from closed to open position to permit access to said second compartment, h.
said first closure means and said second closure means sized and shaped substantially identical to each other and movable to open position respectively in opposite directions from each other along a vertical plane which traverses the medial sections of the first compartment, the reflective means and the second compartment, i.
said inner wall means of the bottom, and side means defining the first compartment having a lined design thereon, and j
