Definitions
- the doll or puppet type capable of producing at will the realistic and different movements of the lower limbs comprising, symmetrically relative to the longitudinal axis of said figure, an upper limb which may be articulated, defonnable under pressure and playing the role of an air syringe, connected inwardly by a tube to bellows bearing on the one hand on an inner stationary part of the body of said figure and on the other hand, on a lever extending. inside said body, the homologous lower limb of the upper limb beyond its articulation axis.
- the upper limb, the connecting tube and the bellows are made ofa flexible, elastic and airtight material.
- the present invention relates to a toy figure of the animated doll or puppet type, capable of reproducing in particular the movements ofthe lower limbs.
- the present invention eliminates these disadvantages by providing a figure capable of reproducing movements in a varied manner and of great simplicity of production.
- the toy figure according to the invention is essentially characterized by the fact that it comprises, symmetrically, an upper limb which may be deformed through pressure, con nected inwardly by a tube to bellows bearing on the one hand on an inner stationary part of the body and on the other hand on a lever extending, inside the body, the lower homologous limb beyond its articulation axis.
- the upper limbs, the connecting tube and the inner bellows are made of a flexible, elastic and airtight material
- the upper limbs may be articulated.
- the upper limb or arm 1 which may be deformed under pressure, is extended beyond the shoulder articulation by a flexible tube 2 housed inside the body 3.
- This tube 2 is connected to bellows 4 themselves bearing, on the one hand, on the stationary, abdominal wall 5 and, on the other hand, on a lever 6 extending inwardly the lower limb or leg 7 hinged on the pin 8 at the level of the pelvis.
- the upper limb thus plays the role of an air syringe and, when pressure is exerted thereon, materialized by the arrow F,
- the syringe-tube-bellows-lever unit is applied to the two homologous limbs and two of these units are thus disposed in a symmetric manner relative to the longitudinal axis of the body of the figure.
- a large variety of movements may be realized, whether one acts simultaneously or alternately on the upper limbs.
- the lower limbs will thus be animated in various different ways, due to the fact that the pressure exerted on the upper limbs may be more or less great.
- An animated doll capable of producing at will the realistic and different movements of the lower limbs, comprising, symmetrically relative to the longitudinal axis of said doll,
- an upper limb which may be articulated and deformable under pressure to actuate an air syringe in the form of a tube connected inwardly to bellows bearing at one end on an inner stationary part of the body of said doll and at the other end on a lever extending inside said body and inside the lower limb beyond its articulation axis, whereby articulation of said upper limb effects animated motion of the homologous lower limb.
