The front shell 12 is formed with a buffer groove 48, and the buffer block 49 is elastically installed in the buffer groove 48 by a spring. When a collision occurs in front of the vehicle body 1, the buffer block 49 located in the front shell 12 will have a buffering effect, absorb energy, reduce the vibration generated by the collision, reduce the danger, and increase the protection of children.

[0039] The vehicle underbody 14 is equipped with a front chassis 30, which is fitted with a front steering arm 36 and a front wheel module 3. The front steering arm 36 is connected to the front wheel module 3. The push mechanism 15 includes a rear steering shaft 17 mounted on the rear body 13. A rotating handle 16 is mounted on the top of the rear steering shaft 17, and a linkage structure is mounted on the bottom. The linkage structure is connected to the front steering arm 36. When an adult needs to operate the steering, they can turn the rotating handle 16 to rotate the rear steering shaft 17. Through the linkage structure, the front steering arm 36 can be moved laterally, thereby causing the front wheel module 3 to deflect and achieve steering. This prevents collisions caused by children operating the steering independently and improves safety.

[0040] Specifically, a front connecting structure 2 is provided between the front shell 12 and the main shell 11. The front connecting structure 2 includes a connecting sleeve 21 formed longitudinally at the bottom of the main shell 11, and a transversely arranged front connecting plate 22 formed at the inner end of the front shell 12. The front connecting plate 22 is formed with a front connecting groove 23 that is coaxially fitted with the connecting sleeve 21. The front connecting groove 23 has a notch, and a front locking rod 24 is installed on the front connecting plate 22 and inserted into the front connecting groove 23 and the connecting sleeve 21 in sequence. When the front shell 12 is connected to the main shell 11, the connecting sleeve 21 of the front shell 12 is fitted with the front connecting groove 23 of the front connecting plate 22, and then the front locking rod 24 is inserted to achieve a locking connection and ensure the stability of the installation.

[0041] Furthermore, the front connecting structure 2 also includes a transverse connecting post 25 formed at the bottom of the main body shell 11, and an insertion post 26 coaxially aligned with the transverse connecting post 25 is formed at the inner end of the front shell 12. The transverse connecting post 25 is formed with an insertion groove 27 for the insertion post 26 to be inserted. After the front shell 12 is attached to the main body shell 11, the insertion post 26 located in the front shell 12 will be inserted into the transverse connecting post 25 of the main body shell 11, so that the insertion post 26 can be inserted into the insertion groove 27 of the transverse connecting post 25. The insertion slot 27 is formed with a stop block 28, and the stop block 28 is formed with a first connecting hole 29 coaxially aligned with the transverse connecting post 25. A transverse connecting rod 292 is installed in the first connecting hole 29. The transverse connecting post 25 is formed with a second connecting hole 291 coaxially aligned with the first connecting hole 29. After the insertion post 26 is inserted into the insertion slot 27, it will abut against the stop block 28 of the insertion slot 27. At this time, the first connecting hole 29 of the insertion post 26 will be coaxially aligned with and fit against the second connecting hole 291 of the stop block 28. At this time, the transverse connecting rod 292 can be inserted between the second connecting hole 291 and the first connecting hole 29, realizing the locking connection between the transverse connecting post 25 and the insertion post 26, and improving the connection stability between the front shell 12 and the main shell 11.

[0042] A first swing arm 18 is fitted at the bottom of the rear steering axle 17. A rotating disk 4 is installed on the undercarriage 14. The rotating disk 4 is formed with an active block 41 and a driven arm 42. The linkage structure includes a first connecting rod 43 that is movably connected between the active block 41 and the first swing arm 18. The driven arm 42 of the rotating disk 4 is rotatably connected to the front steering arm 36. When the rotating handle 16 is turned to drive the rear steering axle 17 to rotate, the first swing arm 18 installed at the bottom of the rear steering axle 17 rotates laterally accordingly and is connected to the active block 41 through the first connecting rod 43 to realize the rotation of the rotating disk 4. The driven arm 42 formed on the rotating disk 4 can swing and deflect, thereby realizing the steering of the front wheel module 3.

[0043] Specifically, the front wheel module 3 includes a front steering groove 31 formed at both ends of the front chassis 30. The front steering groove 31 is equipped with an upright front wheel axle 32. The front wheel axle 32 is equipped with a front support arm 33 that can rotate laterally. The front support arm 33 is equipped with a vertically arranged front wheel 35 at its outer end. The front support arm 33 can swing around the front wheel column in the steering groove, and the front wheel 35 installed on the front support arm 33 turns accordingly. The front support arm 33 is formed with an active arm 34.

[0044] Furthermore, the active arm 34 of the front support arm 33 is equipped with an upright front drive shaft 38, and the front steering arm 36 is connected between the two front support arms 33. The two ends of the front steering arm 36 are rotatably connected to the front drive shaft 38 respectively. The bottom of the driven arm 42 of the rotating disk 4 is equipped with a front wheel steering shaft 50 that is movably connected to the front steering arm 36. The steering arm can cooperate with the active arm 34 of the two front support arms 33 to form a parallelogram structure. When the front steering arm 36 moves laterally, it always maintains the quadrilateral structure, thereby realizing the control and steering of the front wheel module.

[0045] The front steering arm 36 is formed with a transverse connecting plate 37, and the transverse connecting plate 37 is formed with a first guide groove 39. The first guide groove 39 is located in the middle of the front steering arm 36 and is formed laterally perpendicular to the length direction of the front steering arm 36. The bottom of the driven arm 42 of the rotating disk 4 is equipped with the front wheel steering shaft 50, which is slidably connected to the guide groove. When the driven arm 42 of the rotating disk 4 swings, it will slide and engage with the first guide groove 39 of the front steering arm 36 through the front wheel steering shaft 50, thereby causing the front steering arm 36 to be laterally offset. The included angle of the parallelogram structure changes, thereby realizing the control steering of the front wheel module.

[0046] Furthermore, the main body shell 11 is equipped with a steering wheel module 44, and a front steering shaft 45 is installed at the bottom of the steering wheel module 44. A connecting hook 46 is connected to the bottom of the front steering shaft 45. The driven arm 42 of the rotating disk 4 is formed with a second guide groove 47 for the connecting hook 46 to be inserted. The second guide groove 47 is formed along the length of the driven arm 42. When a child riding in the vehicle body 1 independently controls the vehicle, turning the steering wheel module 44 will cause the front steering shaft 45 at the bottom of the steering wheel module 44 to rotate. Through the sliding engagement of the connecting hook 46 with the second guide groove 47 of the driven arm 42, the rotating disk 4 will be driven to rotate, thereby realizing the control and steering of the front wheel module.

[0047] In summary, this utility model possesses the aforementioned excellent characteristics, enabling it to achieve unprecedented efficiency in use and thus become a highly practical product.

[0048] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation method and application scope based on the idea of ​​this utility model. The content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
