ABSTRACT:
A skating doll includes a torso upon which are pivotally mounted a head and a pair of legs. The axis of rotation of one leg is angled with respect to the axis of rotation of the other leg so that each leg swings, with respect to the torso, from a rearward, outward position to a forward inward position. The legs include outwardly turned feet supported atop rollers oriented to move in a forward direction in response to the inwardly and forwardly directed force applied to the other leg. Each leg moves out of synchronism with the other and the head is powered for side to side movement so that the weight is on the forwardly moving leg. As a result the doll moves forward in a rolling, sliding, side to side, swaying motion which realistically simulates the movement of a roller or ice skater.
