AI Technical Summary
Traditional bus toys have limited functionality, lack structural innovation, and have high costs for electric drive structures, making them prone to rolling away on sloping surfaces.
Employing a braking device and concealed frame components, the wheel rotation is restricted by braking plates and top-moving threaded parts. Combined with elastic support plates and springs, a display mode is achieved, allowing the wheels to be displayed off the ground, and the car body to have open windows and doors.
This technology enables the bus toy to switch between different control modes, enhancing its playability and hands-on ability, reducing manufacturing costs, and preventing the bus from slipping away.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bus toy technology, specifically a bus toy with switchable control modes. Background Technology
[0002] Bus toys are very popular with children. Traditional bus toys primarily feature realistic structures, such as openable windows and doors, remote control operation, or pull-back operation. Aside from differences in design, the structure of existing bus toys remains largely unchanged. This application is submitted to improve the functionality and structure of bus toys. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention provides a bus toy with switchable control modes, which overcomes the shortcomings described in the background art.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:
[0005] A bus toy with switchable control modes includes a base and a shell. The base and shell are assembled to form the bus toy. Wheels are provided on the base. The control mode of the bus toy is changed by a braking device. The braking device includes a braking plate, a mounting cylinder, and a threaded actuating component. The braking plate is slidably mounted on the mounting cylinder via a mounting rod. The threaded actuating component is threadedly connected to the mounting cylinder, and one end of the threaded actuating component actuates the braking plate to change its relative position, thereby contacting the wheel and restricting the wheel's rotation. A hidden frame assembly is also provided on the base.
[0006] Compared to traditional toys, the bus toy of this invention uses a simple structure to enable the bus to lock its wheels and display itself. The added structure does not significantly increase manufacturing costs, while also improving children's hands-on skills to a certain extent, making it highly valuable.
[0007] A preferred technical solution: The concealed frame assembly includes a support plate, a mounting groove on the base, the support plate is made of elastic material, and a protrusion is provided on the side of the support plate. A recess matching the protrusion is provided on the side of the mounting groove. The back of the support plate is mounted to the mounting groove by a spring. The support plate is also provided with a support rod section that slides and fits against the side of the mounting groove.
[0008] A preferred technical solution: After the support plate is removed from the mounting slot, the elastic potential energy of the spring causes the wheels of the toy bus to lift off the ground, thereby putting the toy bus in a display state.
[0009] A preferred technical solution: Several windows are installed on the vehicle body, and the windows are slidably installed on the vehicle body.
[0010] A preferred technical solution: A door is installed on the vehicle body, and the door can be opened.
[0011] A preferred technical solution: The wheels are mounted on the base of the vehicle via a rotating shaft.
[0012] A preferred technical solution: The side end of the support plate is provided with an arc-shaped opening for the auxiliary support plate to be removed from the mounting groove.
[0013] A preferred technical solution: four wheels are provided.
[0014] A preferred technical solution: The wheels are divided into front wheel sets and rear wheel sets, with a braking device installed on the side of the rear wheel set.
[0015] A preferred technical solution: Install a braking device on the side of the front wheel assembly.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] 1. This utility model uses a hidden frame component, which allows the bus toy to be displayed when not in use by opening the hidden frame component.
[0018] 2. This utility model restricts the rotation of corresponding wheels through a braking device, making it particularly suitable for toy buses with simple chassis structures that lack electric drive. While eliminating the control costs associated with electric drive structures, the toy bus can be placed on an inclined surface after the braking device is activated, preventing it from rolling away. The structure is simple and practical, does not significantly increase manufacturing costs, and enhances the playability of the toy bus. Attached Figure Description

[0026] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a bus toy with switchable control modes includes a base 1 and a shell 2. The base 1 and shell 2 are assembled to form the bus toy. Wheels 3 are provided on the base 1. The control mode of the bus toy is changed by a braking device 4. The braking device 4 includes a braking plate 41, a mounting cylinder 42, and a pushing threaded component 43. The braking plate 41 is slidably mounted on the mounting cylinder 42 via a mounting rod 44. The pushing threaded component 43 is threadedly connected to the mounting cylinder 42, and one end of the pushing threaded component 43 pushes the braking plate 41 to change its relative position, thereby contacting the wheel 3 and restricting the rotation of the wheel 3. A hidden frame assembly 5 is also provided on the base 1. The control modes are manual mode (mode one, which allows the bus to be moved) and stationary mode (mode two, where the braking device 4 restricts the wheel 3).
[0027] Furthermore, the concealed frame assembly 5 includes a support plate 51, a mounting groove 11 on the base 1, the support plate 51 is made of elastic material, and a protrusion 511 is provided on the side end of the support plate 51. A notch 111 matching the protrusion 511 is provided on the side of the mounting groove 11. The back side of the support plate 51 is installed onto the mounting groove 11 by a spring 52. The support plate 51 is also provided with a support rod section 512 that slides and fits against the side of the mounting groove 11.
[0028] Furthermore, after the support plate 51 is removed from the mounting slot 11, the elastic potential energy of the spring 52 causes the wheels 3 of the bus toy to lift off the ground, thereby putting the bus toy into a display state.
[0029] Furthermore, the body shell 2 is provided with several windows 21, and the windows 21 are slidably installed on the body shell 2.
[0030] Furthermore, a door is installed on the body shell 2, and the door can be opened.
[0031] Furthermore, the wheel 3 is rotatably mounted on the base 1 via the rod 6. Specifically, another seat 13 is set on the base 1, and the rod 6 passes through this seat. The seat 13 ensures that the wheels 3 on both sides of the rod 6 are symmetrical.
[0032] Furthermore, the side end of the support plate 51 is provided with an arc-shaped opening 12 for the auxiliary support plate 51 to move out of the mounting groove 11.
[0033] Furthermore, four wheels are set in wheel 3.
[0034] Furthermore, wheel 3 is divided into front wheel group and rear wheel group, and braking device 4 is installed on the side of the rear wheel group.
[0035] Furthermore, a braking device 4 is installed on the side of the front wheel assembly.
[0036] In this utility model, the bus toy uses a spring 52 with appropriate elastic potential energy to allow the support plate 51 to contact the ground after it is released from its restraints (i.e., the support plate 51 is no longer located in the mounting groove 11), thus supporting the entire bus toy for display. When the support plate 51 is installed in the mounting groove 11, the protrusion 511 on the side of the support plate 51 connects with the recess 111, compressing the spring 52 and thus achieving a hidden retraction of the support plate 51. Viewed from the side of the bus toy, the wheel 3 is circular, and the braking plate 41 has an arc-shaped structure that matches the wheel 3 on the side facing the wheel 3, so that it can fully fit and restrict the rotation of the wheel 3 when in contact with it. In use, rotating the actuating threaded part 43 changes the position of one end of the braking plate 41, so that it contacts the wheel 3 and restricts the rotation of the wheel 3.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, and therefore cannot be used to limit the scope of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of the present utility model patent and the contents of the specification should still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
