The steering structure includes: a steering member 100 and a steering seat 200. In this embodiment, the steering seat 200 is arranged on one side of the vehicle body, and the steering member 100 is arranged on the outer side of the steering seat 200, that is, on one side of the wheel. The upper side of the steering seat 200 extends in the direction of the steering member 100 to form an upper mounting groove 210, and the lower side of the steering seat 200 extends in the direction of the steering member 100 to form a lower mounting groove 220; the upper end of the steering member 100 is provided with an upper connecting ear 110 that cooperates with the upper mounting groove 210, and the lower end of the steering member 100 is provided with a lower connecting ear 120 that cooperates with the lower mounting groove 220; the upper connecting ear 110 is inserted into the upper mounting groove 210 and is rotatably connected to the upper mounting groove 210; the lower connecting ear 120 is inserted into the lower mounting groove 220 and is rotatably connected to the lower mounting groove 220, so that the steering member 100 is rotatably arranged on the outer side of the steering seat 200, and the rotating member can rotate relative to the steering seat 200.

[0029] The upper mounting ear is rotatably connected in the upper mounting groove 210, and the upper and lower sides of the upper mounting groove 210 can block the upper mounting ear to prevent the upper mounting ear from falling out of the upper and lower sides of the mounting groove when the toy car is hit by external force, thereby ensuring the stable connection between the upper mounting ear and the upper mounting groove 210. The lower mounting ear is rotatably connected in the lower mounting groove 220, and similarly, the stable connection between the lower mounting ear and the lower mounting groove 220 can also be ensured. This makes the connection between the steering member 100 and the steering seat 200 more stable and firm, improves the structural strength of the steering assembly, optimizes the overall durability of the toy car, and improves the user experience. As a preferred solution, the upper mounting groove 210 and the lower mounting groove 220 are symmetrically arranged on the upper and lower sides of the steering seat 200, ensuring the connection balance between the steering member 100 and the upper and lower sides of the steering seat 200, and ensuring a good steering effect.

[0030] In this embodiment, the steering structure further includes: an upper screw 310 and a lower screw 320, a first hinge hole 211 is symmetrically arranged on the upper and lower sides of the upper mounting groove 210, and a second hinge hole 111 is arranged on the upper connecting ear 110 corresponding to the first hinge hole 211, and the upper screw 310 penetrates the first hinge hole 211 and the second hinge hole 111 to hinge the upper connecting ear 110 in the upper mounting groove 210 to realize the rotation of the upper connecting ear 110 and the upper mounting groove 210. The third hinge hole 221 is symmetrically arranged on the upper and lower sides of the lower mounting groove 220, and the fourth hinge hole 121 is arranged on the lower connecting ear 120 corresponding to the third hinge hole 221. The lower screw 320 penetrates the third hinge hole 221 and the fourth hinge hole 121 to hinge the lower connecting ear 120 in the lower mounting groove 220, and realizes the rotation connection between the upper connecting ear 110 and the upper mounting groove 210, so as to ensure the stable connection between the steering member 100 and the steering seat 200. As a preferred solution, a bushing 400 is arranged on the inner side of the second hinge hole 111 and the fourth hinge hole 121. The bushing 400 can reduce the friction between the upper screw 310 and the upper connecting ear 110, and between the lower screw 320 and the connecting ear, so as to ensure that the connecting ear can rotate smoothly in the mounting groove, and the rotating member can rotate smoothly relative to the steering seat 200, so as to achieve a good steering effect of the toy car.

[0031] As a preferred solution, the width of the upper connecting ear 110 is equal to the width of the inner side of the upper mounting groove 210, so that the upper and lower sides of the upper mounting groove 210 can simultaneously provide support for the upper mounting ear, thereby preventing the upper mounting ear from shaking up and down in the upper mounting groove 210 and affecting the strength of its connection and causing abnormal noise; the width of the lower connecting ear 120 is equal to the width of the inner side of the lower mounting groove 220, so that the upper and lower sides of the lower mounting groove 220 can simultaneously provide support for the lower mounting ear, thereby preventing the lower mounting ear from shaking up and down in the lower mounting groove 220 and affecting the strength of its connection and causing abnormal noise. The coordinated installation of the two mounting grooves and the two mounting ears can prevent the steering member 100 from being squeezed and deformed when the toy car is hit, thereby improving the durability of the steering mechanism.

[0032] In this embodiment, a first power transmission hole 230 is provided in the middle of the steering seat 200, and a second power transmission hole 130 corresponding to the first power transmission hole 230 is provided in the middle of the steering member 100, so that the toy car can transfer the power on the frame to the wheel through the steering structure to realize the steering of the driving wheel, thereby achieving a good use effect. As a preferred solution, a first connecting seat 240 for rotatingly connecting the lower swing arm of the frame is provided at the inner lower end of the mounting seat, and a first connecting groove 250 for connecting the upper pull rod is provided at the inner upper end of the mounting seat. The upper pull rod can pull the rotating seat to rotate with the first connecting seat 240 as the axis, thereby adjusting the angle between the steering seat 200 and the lower swing arm to adjust the inclination angle of the wheel and the frame. The provision of the first connecting groove 250 can prevent the connection between the upper pull rod and the steering seat 200 from failing when the toy car is hit, thereby ensuring its connection stability.

[0033] In this embodiment, a reinforcing rib 140 is extended in the up-down direction on the steering member 100. The reinforcing rib 140 is extended from the upper connecting ear 110 to the lower connecting ear 120, which can increase the structural strength of the steering member 100, prevent the steering member 100 from deforming in the up-down direction and affecting the fit between the connecting ear and the mounting groove, and ensure the stable connection between the steering seat 200 and the steering member 100.
