Abstract
A launching device is provided for rapidly spinning and subsequently launching a top. The launcher is particularly suited for launching spherical or ovoid-shaped top elements such as real or artificial eggs. The launcher includes a centrally mounted, resilient friction wheel which is manually rotated through a crank and gear mechanism to impart rotation to the top elements. The launcher includes a dish-shaped platform for supporting the spinning elements and a pivotal platform portion which is manually depressed to release the spinning top elements onto an adjacent supporting surface.
