Abstract
The present invention provides a doll which has a pair of legs and a frame, with a generally horizontal slotted follower, fixed onto the top of the legs. A movable support frame for supporting the upper torso of the doll is pivotally mounted at its upper and lower ends onto the frame. A first motor is installed on the movable support frame, and an eccentric pin member is operatively connected to and activated by the first motor for actuating the hand rod and the head rod of the dolls. The slotted follower of the frame provides a slot which slidingly receives the eccentric pin member. While the eccentric pin member is rotating around the axis of the first motor, the movable support frame is activated and turn right and left reciprocatively thereby. A plurality of corresponding or similar dolls may be pivotally mounted onto a connecting rod inside of the box; thus, the dolls will swing simultaneously while the connecting rod is activated by a second motor in the box to move reciprocatively in a transverse direction.
