ABSTRACT:
A walking simulating apparatus for a doll having legs pivotally mounted on the doll's torso for movement around respective axes extending at an acute angle to the vertical axis of the torso in which a pair of oppositely laterally extending arms carried by a pivot extending in the general direction of the torso vertical axis and resiliently urged into engagement with frusto-conical interior surfaces formed on the leg flange inserts carry detents adapted to engage first recesses in the leg flange insert surfaces to provide a releasable driving connection between the legs between limit positions determined by a third arm mounted for movement with the driving arms and extending generally perpendicularly thereto between the leg flanges so as to engage the flange inserts respectively at the limit positions corresponding to the limits of a stride of the doll. In response to a twisting force on a leg exceeding that with which the detent is held in the recess each leg can be moved to position corresponding to a sitting position of the doll in which position the detents ride into a second position in which the legs are releasably held.
