ABSTRACT:
The doll illustrating the toy figure includes an ingestion system having an inlet opening and an outlet opening. A resilient or flexible tube connects the inlet opening to the outlet opening. The resilient tube includes a straight longitudinal section within the doll's body. A carriage unit is constrained for rectilinear movement relative to the straight section, a roller movable with said carriage unit performing a persistalic pumping action as it is progressively moved downwardly along the straight section of the tube. A manually actuated lever connected to the carriage unit permits a child to move the carriage unit downwardly, the lever projecting through a slot in the back of the doll's body. Provision is made for only partially collapsing the tube as the carriage unit is returned to its initial position by means of a roll spring. The head of the doll is made of deformable resilient material, a cam link unit coupled to the carriage unit acting on a jaw lever unit to close the doll's normally open mouth as the child moves the actuating lever downwardly.
