  • Publication number: 20020164918
    Abstract: Fishing toy including a fishing tackle and a fished body. In the fished body are disposed a motor, a cell seat, a bite activation mechanism and a swinging mechanism. A trigger switch is disposed in the bite activation mechanism for controlling turning on/off of the motor to drive and swing the swinging mechanism. The swinging mechanism serves to reciprocally swing a tail part of the fished body and a bracket. The fished body has a form of a fish and including a buoyant main body and turnable eye parts, gill parts and tail part which are connected with the swinging mechanism. When the fished body is hooked, the swinging mechanism is driven to make the eye parts of the fished body rotate and make the gill parts and tail part swing left and right so as to simulate the real situation and achieve entertaining effect.

  • Patent number: 6458009
    Abstract: A fishing toy comprising a fishing tool and a fishing target. A motor capable of sinking in water is installed in the fishing target. A battery seat, a bait biting actuation means, a swinging means; a movable switch triggered by absorption is installed in the bait biting actuation means for conducting the motor to drive the swinging means to swing. The swinging means is installed by a decelerating gear on a rotary shaft of the motor and a push plate driven by an eccentric wheel. The fishing target is an aquatic animal or amphibian, such as a frog, with a body and four movable limbs. A front end of each limb is connected to the push plate of the swinging means. Thereby, as the fishing target is fished on a hook of a fish rod, the limbs of the fishing target present a vivid action. Thus, the applications of the products are increased and the present invention can be used in many aquatic animals or amphibians.

  • Patent number: 6022025
    Abstract: A fishing toy including a fishing tackle and a toy fish. When the fishing line is wound on a line-winding mechanism of the fishing tackle to the end, the line-winding mechanism will idle to protect the fishing line and the fishing rod. When a switch is switched on, a motor in the toy fish is rotated to drive a swinging mechanism and a linking mechanism, whereby the toy fish can slowly swing and swim in the water with the lower jaw slowly opening and closing. When a magnetic bait attracts and attaches to the bite triggering mechanism, the fish tail and the lower jaw swing more violently so as to create a live effect both when the toy fish is in the water and after it is gaffed.
