Abstract

A toy facsimile machine has a hollow case for housing a rotatably mounted roll of paper, transfer roll members that frictionally engage the paper to unroll it, a plate positioned between the roll and the transfer roll members to support the unrolled paper so that the user of the toy may write and draw on the paper, a motor for activating the transfer roll members, an integrated circuit for generating tone signals, a speaker for converting those signals into sound, and a battery for operating the motor and integrated circuit. A window frame formed in the case exposes the paper so that the user may write and draw on it. A delivery port is formed in a leading end of the toy and operation of the transfer roll members feeds the paper out of the hollow interior of the toy through that port. A cutting device is positioned at the port so that the discharged paper may be cut off by pulling up on it. Further features include a model telephone head set cradled by the case and a manually operated rotatably mounted spool for taking slack out of the roll of paper.
