Abstract

An amusement vehicle has a hollow body shell which is shaped like, for example, a four-footed animal. Front and rear frames are provided inside the body shell, and are coupled to each other by a hollow shaft. The front and rear frames can correlatively rotate in the rolling direction around the hollow shaft. Front wheels are mounted on the front frame, and rear wheels on the rear frame. At least one of these wheels is rotated by a motor. Besides the front and rear wheels, front imitation legs and rear imitation legs are attached to the front and rear frames so as to be swingable in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. The front and rear imitation legs are reciprocated back and forth by the motor through a power transmission shaft. The power transmission shaft is passed through the hollow shaft.
