1. A motion sensitive animated advertising device for mounting to a moving vehicle that is subject to acceleration and deceleration forces in a movement plane of the advertising device, comprising:
- a. a base;
b. a first element coupled to the base and to a first mass rotatable about a first pivot point for creating a biasing load for moving the first element from a first stable position to a second stable position relative to the base; and
c. a second element coupled to the base and to a second mass rotatable about a second pivot point for creating a second biasing load for moving the second element from a third stable position to a fourth stable position relative to the base;
wherein the first and second elements move in conjunction with one another in response to the acceleration and deceleration of the advertising device.

Abstract
A motion sensitive animated advertising device for mounting to a moving vehicle. The present invention comprises at least one moving element having two stable positions wherein the movement of the vehicle causes the element to shift from one stable position to the other stable position.

13. A motion sensitive animated advertising device for mounting to a moving vehicle that is subject to acceleration and deceleration forces in a movement plane of the advertising device, comprising:
-
a) a base; b) a first element coupled to the base for moving from a first stable position to a second stable position and in a first plane parallel to the movement plane; and c) a second element coupled to the base for moving from a third stable position to a fourth stable position relative to the base and in a second plane parallel to the movement plane; wherein the first and second elements move in conjunction with one another in response to the acceleration and deceleration of the advertising device, and, wherein the first and second elements have a cause-and-effect relationship. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 18, 19)
