[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toy steering technology, and more specifically, to a toy steering servo. Background Technology

[0002] A toy steering mechanism is a mechanical or electronic system used to control the direction of movement in a toy. Its design principles and structure vary depending on the type of toy. Its main functions include directional adjustment, improved maneuverability, and safety. Toy steering mechanisms achieve directional control through mechanical or electronic means, and their design must balance functionality, safety, and fun. Core technologies include linkage transmission, cushioning and weight reduction, angle limiting, and multi-mode control, while also meeting national stability standards to ensure children's safety.

[0003] For example, application number CN202222960146.3 discloses a controller for a high-precision toy car steering servo, which has the advantage of easy disassembly. This solves the problem that the controllers of existing rideable toy car steering servos cannot be disassembled, which may cause children to ride the toy car without parental supervision, resulting in unnecessary accidents and safety hazards. However, the existing toy steering servo structure is relatively complex and is prone to failure after long-term use, resulting in inflexible steering and affecting the normal use of the toy. After a period of use, the servo may exhibit a doubling phenomenon, that is, the actual rotation angle of the servo deviates from the angle required by the received signal, causing the toy's steering response to become insensitive and affecting the operating experience. Furthermore, the above-mentioned steering device is only used on toy cars and is not convenient to install on other toys that require steering, otherwise it will easily lead to a more complex steering servo structure, thus limiting the applicable environment of the above-mentioned device.

[0004] Therefore, a toy steering servo is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content
