# Mechanical Heart Puzzle Sets Amatonimcal_Brick Creates the Unique LEGO Motorized Beating Heart By Amy Duong | Published 2024-05-01 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motorized-beating-heart References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2024/04/30/this-lego-mechanical-heart-beats-just-like-a-real-heart-would/)  LEGO Builder Anatomical_Brick creates the Motorized Beating Heart that replicates the look and beating of an actual heart. The entire set is made from LEGO bricks and powdered by a set of batteries that can be replaced. At the root of the structure is a LEGO Technic frame that is backed bt two connected slider mechanisms and a scissor component. This design allows for dynamic changes to both the height and width. The outer shell is made from connected sections that are held by rubber hands. All of these come together to create the illusion of a structure that contracts and expands like a heart. Anatomical_Brick explains, “I initially wanted to make a heart for Brickvention due to my fascination in the organ and had never seen it done using LEGO pieces. When telling others about this project, the reoccurring feedback was that it should move. They were absolutely right! After many months of trial and error, I’m finally happy with the results and so were the people at Brickvention."
