Toy assembly with inner object in housing that performs function

1. A toy assembly, comprising:

a housing having a plurality of walls that surround an interior, wherein the plurality of walls includes a floor, wherein the housing has an inner projection thereon, that projects into the interior of the housing, wherein the inner projection is mounted to be movable downwards relative to a main portion of the floor, wherein the floor includes an underside and has a support surface impact surface on the underside;

an inner object inside the housing, wherein the inner object has a rotary member that has a plurality of outwardly extending projections positioned thereon; and

a motor that is operatively connected to the rotary member to drive the rotary member in a first rotational direction for the rotary member, wherein the rotary member is positioned such that rotation of the rotary member in the first rotational direction causes engagement of the plurality of the outwardly extending projections sequentially with the inner projection to repeatedly drive the inner projection to move downwards so as to drive the support surface impact surface to impact a support surface underneath the housing.

2. A toy assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the inner object is a toy vehicle and the rotary member is a drive wheel on the toy vehicle, that is rotatable to drive the vehicle.

3. A toy assembly as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the motor is in the toy vehicle.

4. A toy assembly as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the motor is further operatively connected to the drive wheel to drive the drive wheel in a second rotational direction, so as to drive the toy vehicle out from the housing.

5. A toy assembly as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the housing includes a movable housing portion that is openable relative to a main housing portion to provide an aperture to the interior,

and wherein the drive wheel is positioned, such that, rotation of the drive wheel in the second rotational direction causes engagement between at least one of the plurality of the radially outwardly extending projections with a grip surface on the inner projection to support driving of the toy vehicle towards the movable housing portion.

6. A toy assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rotary member is a first rotary member and the inner object includes a second rotary member having a plurality of outwardly extending projections positioned,

and wherein the inner projection is a first inner projection, and the support surface impact surface is a first support surface impact surface, and the housing further includes a second inner projection that is mounted to be movable downwards relative to the main portion of the floor,

and wherein the motor is operatively connected to the second rotary member to drive the second rotary member in a first rotational direction for the second rotary member, wherein the second rotary member is positioned such that rotation of the second rotary member in the first rotational direction for the second rotary member causes engagement of the plurality of the outwardly extending projections on the second rotary member sequentially with the second inner projection to repeatedly drive the second inner projection to move downwards so as to drive the support surface impact surface to impact the support surface underneath the housing, and

wherein the radially outwardly extending projections on the second rotary member are angularly offset from the outwardly extending projections on the first rotary member.

7. A toy assembly as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the first rotary member and the second rotary member are both mounted for rotation about a common axis.

8. A toy assembly as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the first inner projection and the second inner projection are proximate first and second edges of the floor that are opposite one another.

9. A toy assembly as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the first outwardly extending projections are radially outwardly extending projections that are positioned about a circumference of the first rotary member, and the second outwardly extending projections are radially outwardly extending projections that are positioned about a circumference of the second rotary member.

10. A toy assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the outwardly extending projections are radially outwardly extending projections that are positioned about a circumference of the rotary member.

11. A toy assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the floor further includes a flap that is pivotably connected to the main portion of the floor, wherein the inner projection is connected to the flap, and wherein the support surface impact surface is positioned on the flap.
