[0045] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The diagram shows a scooter, comprising a frame 1, handlebars 2, a front wheel assembly 3, and a rear wheel assembly 4. The front wheel assembly 3 is rotatably mounted at the front end of the frame 1, and the entire front wheel assembly 3 is rotatable relative to the frame 1, serving as the omnidirectional structure of the scooter. The scooter is propelled by the left and right rotation of the front wheel assembly 3. A first mounting hole 311 is provided at the top of the front wheel assembly 3. The rear wheel assembly 4 is located at the rear end of the frame 1. A through hole 111 is provided at the top of the front end of the frame 1, connecting to the first mounting hole 311. A second mounting hole 121 facing forward is provided at the front end of the frame 1, and / or a second mounting hole 121 facing rearward is provided at the rear end of the frame 1. The handlebars 2 are detachably mounted to either the first mounting hole 311 or the second mounting hole 121.

[0046] In this invention, the handlebar 2 is a twisting steering and swaying mechanism. The handlebar 2 is separate from the front wheel assembly 3. A first mounting hole 311 is provided on the top of the front wheel assembly 3, and a second mounting hole 121 is provided at the end of the frame 1. For example, a second mounting hole 121 facing forward is provided at the front end of the frame 1, or a second mounting hole 121 facing backward is provided at the rear end of the frame 1. The lower end of the handlebar 2 can pass through the through hole 111 and be fitted into the first mounting hole 311. The handlebar 2 can also be detached from the first mounting hole 311 and fitted into the second mounting hole 121. When the handlebar 2 is inserted into the first mounting hole 311, the handlebar 2 stands upright on the body 1. At this time, the scooter is a normal children's toy. When the handlebar 2 is inserted into the second mounting hole 121, the handlebar 2 and the body 1 are in the same direction, with the handlebar 2 facing forward or backward. At this time, the scooter is in a portable state. The height of the scooter is reduced and the length is increased, making it easier to put into the driver's seat or trunk of a car.

In addition, a limiting ring 35 is provided at the upper end of the sleeve 312. The limiting ring 35 prevents the sleeve 312 from slipping off the rotating mounting hole 122 and ensures that the front wheel assembly 3 is stably mounted on the front end of the vehicle body 1.

[0049] The limiting ring 35 can be a snap ring or a limiting nut that is threaded onto the upper end of the sleeve 312.

[0050] In addition, such as Figure 5 As shown, the bottom front end of the vehicle body 1 is also provided with a receiving groove 123, the rotating mounting hole 122 is located at the top of the receiving groove 123, the front wheel assembly 3 is disposed in the receiving groove 123, the front wheel 34 protrudes downward from the receiving groove 123, and the sleeve 312 extends from the receiving groove 123 into the rotating mounting hole 122.

[0051] In some embodiments of the handlebar 2, such as Figure 3 As shown, the handlebar 2 includes a steering handle 21, a connecting rod 22, and a quick-release assembly 23. The steering handle 21 is located at the upper end of the connecting rod 22. The connecting rod 22 is inserted into the first mounting hole 311 or the second mounting hole 121. The quick-release assembly 23 includes a quick-release button 2321, an elastic element 233, and a buckle 2322.

[0052] A buckle 2322 is disposed inside the lower end of the connecting rod 22 and protrudes from the connecting rod 22, for engaging with the first mounting hole 311 or the second mounting hole 121. A quick-release button 2321 is disposed inside the lower end of the connecting rod 22 and above the buckle 2322, with the quick-release button 2321 protruding from the lower end of the connecting rod 22. The quick-release button 2321 is connected to the buckle 2322 to move the buckle 2322 inward into the connecting rod 22. An elastic element 233 is disposed inside the lower end of the connecting rod 22 and abuts against the buckle 2322 to push the buckle 2322 outward.

[0053] The handlebar 2 is prevented from coming loose from the first mounting hole 311 or the second mounting hole 121 by the buckle 2322 in the quick release assembly 23. The buckle 2322 is also moved by the quick release button 2321 and pushed back to the protrusion of the connecting rod 22 by the elastic member 233.

[0054] In some embodiments of the quick-release component 23, such as Figure 4 As shown, the quick-release assembly 23 includes a mounting bracket 231, a sliding member 232, and an elastic member 233. The mounting bracket 231 has a sliding groove 2311, and the sliding member 232 is slidably disposed within the sliding groove 2311. The sliding member 232 has the aforementioned quick-release button 2321 and a buckle 2322. The elastic member 233 is disposed within the sliding groove 2311, with one end abutting against the sliding member 232 and the other end abutting against the bottom of the sliding groove 2311. Specifically, the elastic member 233 is a spring, and there are two of them. The two elastic members 233 are respectively disposed at both ends of the sliding groove 2311, and the two elastic members 233 are also supported from both ends of the sliding member 232, thus providing greater stability.

[0055] The quick-release assembly 23 is inserted into the first mounting hole 311 and the second mounting hole 121 by a pressable snap 2322. The inner wall of the first mounting hole 311 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​hole 3111, and the inner wall of the second mounting hole 121 is provided with a second snap-fit ​​hole 1211.

[0057] like Figure 5 As shown, the inner wall of the first mounting hole 311 is provided with a first guide rail 3112 that slides in conjunction with the guide groove 221, and the inner wall of the second mounting hole 121 is provided with a second guide rail 1212 that slides in conjunction with the guide groove 221. Through the sliding engagement of the guide groove 221 and the first guide rail 3112, and the guide groove 221 and the second guide rail 1212, the connecting rod 22 is guided to slide and assemble, while the connecting rod 22, or the handlebar 2, rotates synchronously with the front wheel assembly 3, maintaining a large torque transmission function between the handlebar 2 and the front wheel assembly 3.

[0058] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5As shown, the lower end face of the connecting rod 22 is provided with a positioning groove 222. The bottom of the first mounting hole 311 is provided with a first protrusion 3113 that positions and engages with the positioning groove 222, and the bottom of the second mounting hole 121 is provided with a second protrusion 1213 that positions and engages with the positioning groove 222. Through the positioning groove 222 and the first protrusion 3113, and the positioning engagement between the positioning groove 222 and the second protrusion 1213, the connecting rod 22, or the handlebar 2, maintains assembly accuracy.

[0059] In some embodiments of the hovercraft, such as Figure 4 As shown, the hovercar also includes a battery cell 5, a main board 6, and a drive motor. The battery cell 5 is located inside the body 1 and connected to the main board 6. The main board 6 is located inside the body 1 and electrically connected to the drive motor. The drive motor is connected to the rear wheel assembly 4. In this embodiment, by setting up the battery cell 5, the main board 6, and the drive motor, and connecting the drive motor to the rear wheel assembly 4, the hovercar is electrified. Children can move forward by cranking the handlebars 2 or by electric drive, providing diverse driving options and increasing the fun for children.

[0060] Specifically, the rear wheel assembly 4 includes a rear axle 41 and two rear wheels 42. The rear axle 41 is located at the rear end of the vehicle body 1, and the two rear wheels 42 are located at both ends of the rear axle 41. One type of drive motor is connected to the rear wheel assembly 4 such that the rear axle 41 is rotatably mounted on the vehicle body 1 via bearings 13, and the drive motor is connected to the rear axle 41 via gears. The drive motor drives the rear axle 41 to rotate, causing the rear wheels 42 to rotate. Another type of drive motor is connected to the rear wheel assembly 4 such that the drive motor is built into the rear wheel 42, providing in-wheel drive.

[0061] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, a seat 14 is provided at the rear end of the top of the vehicle body 1, and foot pedal slots are provided on both sides of the front end of the top of the vehicle body 1.
