[0049] See Figures 1-6 This embodiment provides a toy car.
[0050] Specifically, the toy car is a child-assisted bicycle.
[0051] The toy car includes a frame 1 and a front wheel assembly.
[0052] The frame 1 includes a frame body 12 and a steering armrest 11 that rotates with the frame body 12.
[0053] The front wheel assembly includes a front wheel bracket 3 and front wheels 5 rotatably mounted on both sides of the front wheel bracket 3. The steering armrest 11 is connected to the front wheel bracket 3 and drives the front wheel bracket 3 to rotate in the circumferential direction of the steering armrest 11 when the steering armrest 11 rotates in its own circumferential direction, so as to realize the steering of the front wheel 5.
[0054] The steering armrest 11 and the first pivot 7, which extends in the front wheel bracket 3 in the front-rear direction, rotate to engage so that the frame 1 swings in the left-right direction relative to the front wheel bracket 3.
[0055] When riding this toy car, the child sits on the frame 1, holds the steering handlebar 11 with both hands, and propels the toy car by pushing off the ground with both feet. When turning, the child can turn the steering handlebar 11 to steer the toy car.
[0056] Because the frame 1 can swing in the left and right directions relative to the front wheel bracket 3, children can also tilt their bodies during turns. The tilted body applies a tilting force to the frame 1, causing the frame 1 to tilt. At this time, children can experience the feeling of the vehicle when cornering at high speed, increasing their enjoyment of playing.
[0057] Generally, a turn involves tilting the vehicle to complete a corner, such as a motorcycle corner. In existing technology, when a toy car needs to turn while riding, the child operates the steering handlebars, and the car remains upright during the turn without tilting.
[0058] In the toy car provided in this embodiment, when a child needs to turn while riding, he can tilt his body while turning the handlebar 11, thereby causing the frame 1 to tilt. The frame 1 can tilt after being subjected to tilting force, thus allowing the child to experience the fun of turning.
[0059] At the same time, children can control the tilt angle of the frame 1 by controlling the tilt force when turning, so that the vehicle can complete the turn quickly and stably.
[0060] The steering armrest 11 includes a steering rod 113, a connector 111 disposed on the steering rod 113, and a handle 114. The connector 111 is provided with a pivot hole 1111, the extension direction of the pivot hole 1111 intersecting the extension direction of the steering rod 113. The pivot hole 1111 is rotatably engaged with the first pivot 7.
[0061] Optionally, the extension direction of the pivot hole 1111 is inclined to intersect the extension direction of the steering rod 113, and the extension direction of the pivot hole 1111 is horizontal.
[0062] Specifically, the first rotating shaft 7 is disposed on the front wheel bracket 3, and the connector 111 is rotatably engaged with the first rotating shaft 7 through the rotating shaft through hole 1111.
[0063] This configuration ensures that the steering armrest 11 can smoothly steer the front wheel bracket 3.
[0064] Further, see Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 The front wheel bracket 3 is provided with a clearance notch 31, and the connector 111 is located at the lower end of the steering rod 113 of the steering armrest 11. The connector 111 is movably disposed within the clearance notch 31. With this arrangement, the inner wall of the clearance notch 31 can limit the rotation angle of the connector 111, so as to prevent the frame 1 from tilting too much when tilted, which would affect the safety of children.
[0065] Specifically, in this embodiment, the front wheel bracket 3 includes a connecting block 33, a left front wheel axle 34, and a right front wheel axle 35. The connecting block 33 is cylindrical, and its axis extends horizontally. The first rotating shaft 7 is connected to the connecting block 33. The left front wheel axle 34 and the right front wheel axle 35 are respectively fixedly disposed on both sides of the connecting block 33, and the connecting block 33, the left front wheel axle 34, and the right front wheel axle 35 together form an avoidance gap 31.
[0066] Preferably, the connector 111 is also cylindrical, and the diameter of the connector 111 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the connecting block 33.
[0067] Both the free end of the left front axle 34 and the free end of the right front axle 35 are rotatably equipped with front wheels 5.
[0068] For example, when a child's body tilts at too large an angle, the inner wall of the clearance notch 31 can limit the rotation angle of the joint 111, thereby preventing the frame 1 from tilting at too large an angle.
[0069] Furthermore, to make the tilting and turning of the steering armrest 11 smoother, see... Figure 4 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, a first clearance recess 32 is provided on both sides of the clearance notch 31 on the front wheel bracket 3; and / or
[0070] On the steering armrest 11, a second clearance recess 112 is provided on both sides of the joint 111.
[0071] Specifically, in this embodiment, on the front wheel bracket 3, a first clearance concave surface 32 is provided on both sides of the clearance notch 31, and a second clearance concave surface 112 is provided on both sides of the connector 111.
[0072] With this configuration, when the steering handle 11 needs to tilt to the left, the first clearance recess 32 and the second clearance recess 112 located on the left side of the toy car can make the steering handle 11 tilt to the left. At the same time, the left side of the clearance notch 31 can prevent the steering handle 11 from tilting too far to the left and affecting the child's riding safety.
[0073] Similarly, when the steering handle 11 needs to tilt to the right, the first clearance recess 32 and the second clearance recess 112 located on the right side of the toy car can make the steering handle 11 tilt to the right, while the right side of the clearance notch 31 can prevent the steering handle 11 from tilting too far to the right and affecting the child's riding safety.
[0074] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the toy car also has a rear wheel bracket 4 and a rear wheel 6 rotatably mounted on the rear wheel bracket 4. The rear wheel bracket 4 is rotatably engaged with a second rotating shaft 8 that extends along the front-rear direction of the frame 12.
[0075] The first rotating shaft 7 and the second rotating shaft 8 are arranged in parallel and are located in the rotating shaft plane, which extends vertically.
[0076] Specifically, in this embodiment, one end of the second rotating shaft 8 is disposed on the frame 12, and the other end is rotatably engaged with the rear wheel bracket 4.
[0077] With this configuration, when the steering armrest 11 rotates in its own circumference, it drives the front wheel bracket 3 to rotate in the circumferential direction of the steering armrest 11. After the front wheel 5 achieves steering, it drives the rear wheel 6 to also achieve steering.
[0078] Furthermore, in order to prevent the rear wheel bracket 4 from detaching from the second pivot 8, one of the second pivot 8 and the rear wheel bracket 4 is provided with a swing protrusion, and the other is provided with a swing protrusion mounting groove 81 that cooperates with the swing protrusion.
[0079] Preferably, in this embodiment, the first rotating shaft 7 and the second rotating shaft 8 are coaxially arranged so that the vehicle can turn quickly and smoothly.
[0080] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the rear wheel bracket 4 includes a connecting arm 41 extending in the left-right direction and a support arm 42 extending in the front-back direction. The support arm 42 is fixed on the connecting arm 41 and extends in the axial direction of the second rotating shaft 8. The frame 12 rotates relative to the support arm 42.
[0081] Specifically, in this embodiment, the frame 12 rotates relative to the support arm 42 via the second pivot 8.
[0082] More specifically, one of the second rotating shaft 8 and the support arm 42 is provided with a swing protrusion, and the other is provided with a swing protrusion mounting groove 81 that cooperates with the swing protrusion; further, the support arm 42 is provided with a plug hole that cooperates with the second rotating shaft 8, and the swing protrusion is provided in the plug hole.
[0083] After the second rotating shaft 8 is fitted into the support arm 42, the swing protrusion engages with the swing protrusion mounting groove 81 to prevent the second rotating shaft 8 from detaching from the support arm 42. At the same time, the swing protrusion cooperates with the swing protrusion mounting groove 81, so that the second rotating shaft 8 can swing relative to the support arm 42, thereby achieving the left or right tilt of the second rotating shaft 8.
[0084] A rear wheel 6 is provided at both ends of the connecting arm 41.
[0085] More specifically, the support arm 42 extends forward from the outer wall of the connecting arm 41, and the support arm 42 extends in the front-rear direction as a whole.
[0086] More specifically, the frame 12 includes an upper tube 121 and a front tube 122.
[0087] The upper tube 121 extends in the front-to-back direction, and a seat 2 is provided on the upper tube 121. The seat 2 is convenient for children to ride in.
[0088] The front tube 122 is located at one end of the upper tube 121, and the steering armrest 11 is rotatably engaged with the front tube 122.
[0089] Specifically, the steering armrest 11 is rotatable and is disposed through the front tube 122.
[0090] Preferably, the mounting position of the seat 2 on the upper tube 121 is adjustable. This design allows the toy car to be suitable for children with different arm lengths.
[0091] Furthermore, in order to allow the toy car to switch between its use state and its storage state, the rear wheel bracket 4 is mounted on the upper tube 121, and the mounting position of the rear wheel bracket 4 on the upper tube 121 is adjustable front and rear.
[0092] Alternatively, in other embodiments, the seat 2 and the rear wheel bracket 4 are each independently mounted on the upper tube 121, and the mounting positions of both on the upper tube 121 are adjustable front and rear.
[0093] Specifically, in this embodiment, the seat 2 is connected to the rear wheel bracket 4, and the rear wheel bracket 4 is mounted on the upper tube 121 via the seat 2. The mounting position of the seat 2 on the upper tube 121 is adjustable.
[0094] Furthermore, the toy car also includes a seat locking mechanism that can lock the seat 2 onto the upper tube 121.
[0095] Specifically, in this embodiment, the steering rod 113 also includes a lower shaft and an upper shaft that are fixedly connected, with the upper shaft rotatably passing through the front tube 122.
[0096] The upper end of the upper shaft is provided with a handle 114 that is easy for children to grip, and the connector 111 is provided at the lower end of the lower shaft.
[0097] Specifically, see Figure 8 At this time, the seat 2 is in the first position, and the toy car is in use. Furthermore, when the seat 2 is in the first position, it can be locked onto the upper tube 121 by a seat locking component. Optionally, the seat locking component includes a locking bolt, and the upper tube 121 has multiple first locking holes that extend radially through it. The seat 2 can selectively lock onto one of the first locking holes, thereby adjusting the installation position of the seat 2 on the upper tube 121.
[0098] This design allows the toy car to be used by children of different arm lengths.
[0099] See Figure 9 At this time, seat 2 is in the second position, and the front-to-back dimensions of the toy car are minimized, reducing the space occupied by the toy car when storing it.
[0100] Furthermore, the frame 12 also includes a riser 123, the upper end of which is located at the end of the upper tube 121 away from the front tube 122, and the second rotating shaft 8 is located at the lower end of the riser 123.
[0101] When the toy car provided in this embodiment is in use, the child sits on the seat 2 and turns the steering armrest 11 to turn. At the same time, the child's body tilts, and the seat 2 causes the steering armrest 11 to tilt, allowing the child to experience the fun of turning.
[0102] For example, see Figure 5 When the child is making a left turn, the frame 1 is tilted to the left: the child is sitting on the seat 2 and operates the steering handlebar 11 to turn left. At the same time, the child's body tilts to the left. The force of the left tilt is transmitted through the seat 2 and the frame 12 to the steering handlebar 11 in front and the second pivot 8 at the rear. At this time, the steering handlebar 11 tilts to the left relative to the front wheel bracket 3, and the second pivot 8 tilts to the left relative to the rear wheel bracket 4, so that the entire frame 1 tilts to the left, allowing the child to experience the fun of turning left.
[0103] For example, see Figure 6 In this embodiment, when the child is turning right, the frame 1 is tilted to the right: the child is sitting on the seat 2 and operates the steering handle 11 to turn right. At the same time, the child's body tilts to the right. The force of the right tilt is transmitted sequentially through the seat 2 and the frame 12 to the steering handle 11 in front and the second pivot 8 in the rear. At this time, the steering handle 11 tilts to the right relative to the front wheel bracket 3 and the second pivot 8 tilts to the right relative to the rear wheel bracket 4, thereby causing the entire frame 1 to tilt to the right, allowing the child to experience the fun of turning right.
[0104] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the protection scope of this utility model. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here.
