Detailed Implementation
[0028] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0029] Example 1
[0030] Please see Figure 1-6 As shown, the present invention is a multifunctional toy car, including a car body 1, a first roller 2, a second roller 3, a connecting plate 4, a double-sided locking block 5, a steering spring 6, a car front 7, a reconnaissance car 8, a rocket car 9, a missile car 10, a return spring 11, and a connecting plate 12.
[0031] The vehicle body 1 has a connecting plate 4 on both sides, and a slot is provided in the center of the connecting plate 4. The vehicle body 1 has a cavity inside, and a steering spring 6 is provided in the internal cavity of one side of the vehicle body 1. The steering spring 6 is fixedly connected to the other end of the vehicle body 1 by a connecting plate 12. The connecting plate 12 has a sliding groove on both sides, and double-sided locking blocks 5 are provided inside both sides of the connecting plate 12. Double-sided locking blocks 5 extend from two slots in the connecting plate 12. A return spring 11 is installed inside the connecting plate 12, and the return spring 11 is fixedly connected to the double-sided locking blocks 5. This multi-functional toy car is divided into a car head 7, a reconnaissance car 8, a rocket car 9, and a missile car 10 according to the different functions of the accessories. The top of the reconnaissance car 8 is equipped with a reconnaissance sleeve 801, which is fixedly connected to a reconnaissance telescopic rod 802. Four reconnaissance antennas 803 are rotatably connected to the reconnaissance telescopic rod 802. The top of the rocket car 9 is equipped with a rocket base 901, which is rotatably connected to the rocket sleeve 902. A telescopic rocket head 903 is installed on the rocket sleeve 902. The missile car 10 is equipped with a cannon base 101, and a cannon 102 is detachably connected to the cannon base 101. The car head 7 is equipped with a connecting plate 4 and a cavity on only one side.
[0032] The height of the contact surface between the double-sided locking block 5 and the connecting plate 4 and the connecting plate 12 should be equal to the thickness of the connecting plate 4 to achieve a stable engagement without gaps. When the connecting plate 12 is not separated from the vehicle body 1, the return spring 11 is in a telescopic state so that the connecting plate 12 can be popped out when the double-sided locking block 5 is pressed.
[0033] The assembly process of this multi-functional toy car involves pressing the double-sided latch 5 on the connecting plate 12. The double-sided latch 5 releases its fixation to the connecting plate 4, and then the steering spring 6 inside the car body 1 pops the connecting plate 12 out. Pressing the double-sided latch 5 continuously causes the connecting plate 12 to align with the connecting plates 4 of other cars. Releasing the double-sided latch 5 causes the return spring 11 inside the connecting plate 12 to pop it out, fixing the connecting plate 12 to the connecting plate 4 of the previous car. This allows for the combination of different functional cars. Besides popping out the connecting plate 12, the steering spring 6 also assists in steering after the two cars are connected. This multi-functional toy car can achieve different functions depending on the different accessories. Children can pull the reconnaissance sleeve 801 to increase its height, and then further increase its height through the reconnaissance telescopic rod 802. They can then rotate the reconnaissance antenna 803 to simulate a reconnaissance vehicle. Children can extend the rocket by pulling the telescopic rocket head 903, and adjust the rocket's direction through the rotating connection between the rocket base 901 and the rocket sleeve 902. Children can push the push rod behind the cannon barrel 102 to simulate firing a cannon. Children can connect different functional vehicles together through the double-sided locking block 5, the connecting plate 12, and the joining plate 4, combining the multi-functional toy vehicles in any way to form a convoy. The convoy can be controlled to turn arbitrarily through the connection of the steering spring 6.
[0034] Example 2
[0035] Please see Figure 7-9 As shown, the body 1 of this multi-functional toy car is equipped with a first roller 2 and a second roller 3. The first roller 2 has a circular magnetic piece 201, with a fixed shaft 202 at its center. The second roller 3 has a circular magnetic piece 301, with a fixing hole 302 at its center that matches the fixed shaft 202. Through the cooperation of the fixed shaft 202 and the fixing hole 302, two multi-functional toy cars can be arranged side-by-side. When the first roller 2 of one car body 1 is placed against the second roller 3 of another car body 1, the magnetic piece 201 will attract the magnetic piece 301. The rear fixed shaft 202 extends into the fixed hole 302, so that the first roller 2 and the second roller 3 of the two vehicles can be fitted together, and the two vehicles can be arranged side by side. Only the first roller 2 is set on one side of the vehicle body 1, and only the second roller 3 is set on the other side of the vehicle body 1, so that toy cars with different functions can be combined arbitrarily. Then, the double-sided locking block 5, the connecting plate 12 and the joining plate 4 are used to realize the parallel fleet of vehicles. This makes the multi-functional toy car have a variety of combination methods, which increases the fun of the toy. When the two vehicle bodies 1 turn side by side, the steering spring 6 can extend and retract more on the outer side than on the inner side due to the elasticity of the spring, so as to realize the side-by-side turning of the vehicles.
[0036] Example 3
[0037] Based on the above embodiments 1 and 2, an assembly process for a multifunctional toy car includes the following steps:
[0038] Step 1: Press down the double-sided latch 5 on the connecting plate 12 of the vehicle body 1. The double-sided latch 5 releases the fixing of the connecting plate 4, and then the steering spring 6 inside the vehicle body 1 will pop out the connecting plate 12.
[0039] Step 2: Press the double-sided latch 5 continuously to make the connecting plate 12 fit with the connecting plate 4 behind the other cars. Then release the double-sided latch 5. The return spring 11 inside the connecting plate 12 will pop the double-sided latch 5 out, so that the connecting plate 12 is fixed with the connecting plate 4 behind the previous car, thus completing the side-by-side assembly of the toy cars.
[0040] Step 3: Attach the first roller 2 of vehicle body 1 to the second roller 3 of another vehicle body 1. At this time, the magnetic piece 201 will be attracted together with the magnetic piece 301. Then, the fixing shaft 202 is inserted into the fixing hole 302 to achieve the attachment of the first roller 2 and the second roller 3 of the two vehicles, thus completing the side-by-side assembly of the toy cars.
[0041] The working principle of this invention is as follows: First, press the double-sided latch 5. The steering spring 6 inside the vehicle body 1 will pop out the connecting plate 12. Then, press the double-sided latch 5 again to move the connecting plate 12 to the joining plate 4 of the other vehicle body 1 to achieve contact. Release the double-sided latch 5. The return spring 11 inside the connecting plate 12 will pop the double-sided latch 5 outward, realizing the parallel combination of vehicle body 1 and another vehicle body 1. The first roller 2 of vehicle body 1 is then contacted with the second roller 3 of the other vehicle body 1. At this time, the magnetic piece 201 will be attracted together with the magnetic suction piece 301. The fixed shaft 202 extends into the fixed hole 302, enabling the first roller 2 and the second roller 3 of the two vehicles to fit together, thus allowing the two vehicles to be combined side by side. By enabling the side-by-side and parallel combinations of this multi-functional toy car, it has multiple combination methods, increasing the fun of the toy. The steering spring 6 also enables the parallel combination of the vehicles to turn. After the vehicle bodies 1 are connected side by side, the outer vehicle body 1 requires a larger steering angle, and the outer steering spring 6 can provide a larger steering angle to enable the parallel vehicles to turn.
[0042] The foregoing has provided a detailed description of one embodiment of the present invention, but this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. All equivalent variations and modifications made within the scope of the claims of this invention should still fall within the patent coverage of this invention.
