Title: Wheel and control stick enabling turning and tilting thereof

Abstract: A toy wheel comprising an elongated control stick having a control head at its lower end which is adapted to removably engage the periphery of a wheel. The control head is adapted to be positioned substantially any place along the periphery of the wheel. The control head has a pair of parallel side plates which extend a substantial distance inwardly from the periphery of the wheel on opposite sides thereof. A semi-circular disc disposed between the inner ends of the side plates engages the periphery of the wheel. The control stick is movable in any direction to change the direction of movement of the wheel and is tiltable at any angle up to 45.degree. from vertical. Directional and angular changes can be made without losing control of the wheel and without substantial frictional engagement between the control head and wheel.
