US Patent 10960316 Gyroscopic desk curios

In accordance with the principals of the present invention, a desk or executive curio is provided. A rotor assembly includes a rotor and a shaft. A housing assembly defines inner pivoted supports that allow rotation of the rotor about an inner pivotal axis. The housing assembly further defines outer pivoted supports that allow rotation of the housing about an outer pivotal axis perpendicular to the inner pivotal axis of the rotor assembly. Bearings allow the rotor assembly and the housing assembly to be held in an axis perpendicular to a rotor axis. The rotor assembly and the housing assembly are removably connectable to a base along the inner pivotal axis, the base having an offset center of gravity and defining a curved outer surface.
