Candy dispenser having an oscillating portion and producing simulated laughing sounds

For use with a candy container, a device comprising:

• a housing having an internal cavity and an aperture, the housing being adapted for attachment to the candy container;
• a protruding member mounted to the housing by a pivot and protruding from the aperture;
• a gear mechanism disposed within the housing cavity and including a rotatable wheel, the rotatable wheel having an irregular peripheral surface, the gear mechanism being operatively connected to the protruding member at a location within the housing;
• a shiftable actuating trigger mounted to the housing and engaging the gear mechanism, the actuating trigger being shiftable between a first position and a second position;
• and
• a sound generating member mounted within the cavity and having an end contacting the wheel peripheral surface;
• whereby rotational movement is imparted to the gear mechanism in response to movement of the actuating button toward the second position, thereby causing the sound generating member to produce a sound in response to contact with the rotating wheel and further causing the protruding member to oscillate about its pivot.

A device for use with a candy dispenser, comprising:

• a housing having a pair of apertures and defining an internal cavity, the housing being adapted for attachment to the candy container;
• a pair of pivoting members mounted to the housing, each of the pair of members protruding from a corresponding one of the apertures;
• a gear mechanism disposed within the housing cavity and including a rotatable wheel, the rotatable wheel having an irregular peripheral surface, the gear mechanism being operatively connected to each of the pivoting members;
• a trigger adapted to impart rotational movement to the gear mechanism;
• and
• a reed mounted within the cavity and having an end contacting the wheel peripheral surface;
• whereby in response to rotational movement of the gear mechanism each of the moveable members oscillates while the relative movement between the reed and the wheel irregular peripheral surface generates a sound.

A device for use with a candy dispenser, comprising:

• a housing having a pair of apertures and defining an internal cavity, the housing being adapted for attachment to the candy container, a portion of the housing being adapted to resemble a beaver;
• a pair of pivoting members mounted to the housing portion, each of the pair of members protruding from a corresponding one of the apertures, each of the pair of members further being adapted to resemble a body portion of the beaver;
• a gear mechanism disposed within the housing cavity and including a rotatable wheel, the rotatable wheel having an irregular peripheral surface, the gear mechanism being operatively connected to each of the pivoting members;
• a trigger adapted to impart rotational movement to the gear mechanism;
• and
• a reed mounted within the cavity and having an end contacting the wheel peripheral surface;
• whereby in response to rotational movement of the gear mechanism each of the moveable members oscillates while the relative movement between the reed and the wheel irregular peripheral surface generates a sound.
