Abstract
A vibrating toy assembly that can travel along a surface in an unpredictable pattern. The toy assembly is powered by a vibration mechanism. The vibration mechanism has a motor and batteries that are held in a housing. The vibration mechanism is placed into a hollow casing. The hollow casing defines an internal compartment. Once activated, the vibration mechanism vibrates and changes orientation within the casing. As the vibration mechanism changes orientations, the movement patterns of the casing are altered. This causes the overall toy assembly to move in random patterns.
Claims17
A vibrating toy assembly, comprising:
- a vibration mechanism having a motor and batteries held in a housing, wherein said vibration mechanism vibrates when activated;
- a hollow casing that defines an internal compartment having a bottom surface and at least one side wall, wherein said internal compartment is large enough to receive said housing of said vibration mechanism in a variety of orientations;
- an opening formed in said bottom surface of said internal compartment that enable said vibration mechanism inside said internal compartment to contact a surface outside said internal compartment when activated;
- wherein said vibration mechanism is positioned within said internal compartment and activated, therein causing said vibration mechanism to vibrate and move said casing, wherein said vibration mechanism moves through at least some of said variety of orientations within said casing, therein creating changing patterns of movement for said casing.
A vibrating toy assembly, comprising:
- a vibration mechanism that vibrates when activated;
- a casing formed from a folded paper blank, wherein said casing defines an internal compartment with a bottom surface that receives said vibration mechanism therein, wherein said vibration mechanism causes said casing to vibrate and move;
- and
- an opening in said bottom surface that enables said vibration mechanism vibrating inside said internal compartment to contact a surface outside said internal compartment.
A vibrating toy assembly, comprising:
- a vibration mechanism that vibrates when activated;
- a folded paper casing that defines an internal compartment, wherein said internal casing has a first bottom surface with a first opening formed therein;
- a plastic liner disposed within said internal compartment for reinforcing said casing, wherein said plastic liner defines an open pocket that receives said vibration mechanism therein, said open pocket having a second bottom surface with a second opening formed therein, wherein said second opening aligns with said first opening and enables said vibration mechanism vibrating inside said open pocket to contact a surface outside said folded paper casing, wherein said vibration mechanism vibrates and moves said liner and said casing when activated.
