Patent ID: 7731560

Claim:
A motorized interactive figure comprising: a lower torso bevel gear assembly including a lower body bevel gear meshed to a lower left bevel gear and meshed to a lower right bevel gear; a left leg being mechanically linked to the lower left bevel gear and a right leg being mechanically linked to the lower right bevel gear, wherein movement of either the left leg or right leg moves the right leg or left leg respectively in an opposite direction; a first position defined by the substantially vertical positioning of the left leg and right leg; a motorized wheelbase connected to the end of each of said left leg and right leg, each motorized wheelbase containing a motor mechanism for driving at least one set of wheels; means to control the motor mechanisms based on preprogrammed signals, input signals, and/or audio content; and a processor that facilitates an operation of programs and access of data and content stored on a memory; wherein the processor facilitates a first transition movement from the first position by directing the motor mechanisms to power in opposite directions, such that the motorized wheelbases move in opposite directions as the left leg and right leg pivot outward at the lower torso bevel gear assembly to define a splits position where the left leg and right leg are substantially horizontal relative to a surface and the at least one set of wheels in each motorized wheelbase remains in contact with the surface throughout the first transition movement; wherein the processor facilitates a second transition movement by directing the motor mechanisms to power and move the motorized wheelbases toward one another, pivoting the left leg and right leg inward at the lower torso bevel gear assembly to return the figure to the substantially upright position and the at least one set of wheels in each motorized wheelbase remains in contact with the surface throughout the second transition movement.
