1. An exercise device of skill and amusement, comprising:
- (a) generator means including stator means, rotor means and electric output means;
(b) means for supporting said generator means for movement along a predetermined path such that movement of said generator means along said path automatically causes at least one of said stator means and said rotor means to rotate relative to the other, whereby to generate electric power at said output means; and
(c) electrically powered action means supported by said support means and electrically connected with the output means of said generator means for receiving power from said generator means whereby a centrifugal force is imparted to said generator means as the latter moves around said path, whereby an individual can manipulate said support means to cause said generator means to move along said path and thereby energize said action means.

Abstract
This invention relates to an exercise device of skill and amusement. The device includes a generator within a hollow body which defines a predetermined path. Manual manipulation of the hollow body forces the generator to move along the predetermined path which in turn results in the production of electric power which is used to sequentially energize a number of light or audio means. Activation of sequential light or audio means provides amusement and an indication of the amount of manual skill being exercised by the user.
