Abstract:
A voice activated toy truck comprising:a truck chassis;a hood supported by said truck chassis, said hood being composed of a flexible material so that said hood can readily bend;a truck bed supported by said truck chassis;a truck bed carrier mounting said truck bed to said truck chassis so that said truck bed is movable relative to said truck chassis in a side-to-side fashion;four wheels associated with said truck chassis;a first actuator assembly associated with said chassis, said first actuator assembly being adapted to selectively cause said flexible hood to bend;a second actuator assembly associated with said chassis, said second actuator assembly being adapted to selectively cause said truck bed to move in said side-to-side fashion;a sound detecting circuit associated with said chassis, said sound detecting circuit being adapted to detect sound; anda control circuit operatively coupled to said first actuator assembly and said second actuator assembly and said sound detecting circuit, said control circuit being adapted to cause said first actuator assembly to cause said flexible hood to bend in response to said sound detecting circuit detecting sound and said control circuit being adapted to cause said second actuator assembly to cause said bed to move in said side-to-side fashion in response to said sound detecting circuit detecting said sound.
