Claims14
An action mechanism toy or amusement device having:
- a) a base support;
- b) a housing;
- c) a flexible connection connecting said base support to said housing;
- d) said housing having a vertical axis and a horizontal axis relative to said base support;
- e) said housing having a motor assembly including a non-rotatable motor shaft and a weight;
- f) said motor assembly rotatable on said motor shaft;
- g) said weight being offset laterally from said motor shaft and rotatable on said motor shaft with said motor;
- h) means for actuating said motor;
- i) said housing having a pair of interlocking and separable parts;
- j) said pair of interlocking and separable parts lying in a plane transverse to the vertical axis of said housing and intersecting the horizontal plane of said horizontal axis of said housing;
- k) said motor shaft extending from one of said pair of interlocking and separable parts to other of said pair of interlocking and separable parts;
- l) said motor shaft being transverse to the vertical axis of said housing and perpendicular to the plane in which said pair of interlocking and separable parts lie;
- m) whereby when said motor is actuated by said actuating means, said motor and said weight orbit about said motor shaft thereby causing said housing to rock and wobble on said flexible connection back-and-forth relative to said base.
