  • Patent number: 5451180
    Abstract: A toy with movable figures in a toy scene. The toy includes a housing, a scene board with a hole in it mounted in the housing and a movable figure loosely suspended in the hole. The upper body of the figure is larger than the hole and an end of the figure projects downwardly through the hole below the scene board. A spring driven motor is mounted in the housing below the scene board and has a shaft projecting upwardly. The housing contains a covering or a case and the winding of the spring is activated by the opening and closing of the case. An eccentric cam is connected to the shaft of the motor and a cam follower plate moves back and forth below the scene board in response to rotation of the cam. A projection, which may be a ramp, on the upper surface of the cam follower plate contacts the lower end of the figure, causing it to move up and down in the hole. There may be several figures with respective holes and respective ramps on the cam follower.
