A bobbling toy exciter is provided for gently tapping the bobbling portion of the bobbling toy to create a continuous movement of the bobbling portion. A motor drives a flexible arm in periodic movement which causes the arm to strike the bobbling portion, for example the bobbling head of the toy. A bob or other mass may be added to the end of the flexible arm to more effectively strike the toy. The flexible arm may extend transversely from the shaft of a rotating motor. The flexible arm may also transversely extend from a pivoting vertical rod. The present bobbling toy exciter gently creates movement and action in bobbling toys which would require manual excitation, so that the user may continuously enjoy the bobbling movement.

The invention is a multi-directional reactive pendulum object that is intended to be attached to any moving object such as the dashboard of a motor vehicle. The object is put into motion by the movement of the vehicle causing a pendulum to swing. The pendulum operates two levers that are on pivots which are perpendicular to each other. The object entertains occupants by mimicking the actions of the movement of the vehicle (i.e. turning left, right, stopping, accelerating). Placed on top of the pendulum object will be a toy consisting of various characters, models, or artistic renderings of existing items such as a car, motorcycle, or airplane.

The invention discloses an articulating system comprising one or more objects, one or more joining modules, a motion inducing module, a power source and a control module. Each object comprises one or more bobbling components, and the bobbling components are movably connected to the object by the joining module. The motion inducing module comprises at least one first component disposed proximal to the joining module. The first component is an electromagnet. The power source module is configured to supply power to the electromagnet. The control module is configured to control the power source module to supply power to the motion inducing module, to create a magnetic field at the electromagnet, which compresses the joining module. The control module is further configured to turn off the power supply that would release the joining module, thereby inducing movement to the bobbling component proximal to the joining module.

The present invention discloses an articulating apparatus. The apparatus comprises one or more objects. Each object comprises one or more bobbling components. Further, two or more bobbling components of one or more objects are connected together. The apparatus further comprises one or more joining modules. The joining modules are configured to movably connect each bobbling component to the respective object and enables the two or more connected bobbling components of one or more objects to bobble synergistically in unison.
