Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of children's toy car technology, and in particular to a children's toy car with an expandable canopy structure. Background Technology

[0002] Children's toy cars are very popular toys, not only providing fun but also helping children develop various skills. As the children's toy market grows, parents are increasingly demanding higher levels of functionality and safety from children's toy cars. Traditional children's toy cars are primarily designed for indoor or dry environments, and they typically lack protection against harsh weather conditions such as direct sunlight and rain. This makes children more susceptible to discomfort when outdoors, especially in rain or under intense sunlight. Therefore, there is a need for children's toy cars with expandable canopies.

[0003] Most children's toy cars on the market today have a fixed body design and lack reasonable protection. This makes children susceptible to ultraviolet radiation damage when playing in strong sunlight, leading to health problems such as sunburn or heatstroke. On rainy days, traditional toy cars usually do not have rainproof design, and children are easily soaked when playing outdoors. This not only affects the fun of playing, but may also lead to colds or other health problems for children. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a children's toy car with an expandable canopy structure.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A children's toy car with an expandable canopy structure includes a toy car body. A mounting frame is mounted on the top of the toy car body. Two connecting rods are fixed to one end of the mounting frame. An annular plate is fixed to one end of each of the two connecting rods. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the inner sidewall of each of the two annular plates. The two rotating shafts are fixed to the same sleeve. A vertical through-slot is formed on the sidewall of the sleeve. A rainproof cloth is installed inside the through-slot. A winding mechanism for winding the rainproof cloth is installed inside the sleeve. A mounting plate is fixed to one end of the rainproof cloth. Symmetrical features are arranged on the top of the other end of the mounting frame. The device has two snap-fit ​​mechanisms for attaching the mounting plate, and a cleaning mechanism for cleaning the rainproof cloth at the top of the sleeve. During use, the rainproof cloth can cover the top of the toy car body, achieving the purpose of rain and sun protection. The design of the snap-fit ​​mechanisms ensures that the mounting plate can be firmly fixed during use, preventing it from falling off due to external factors such as wind. This ensures that the rainproof cloth is always on top of the toy car body, preventing children from being injured by exposure to bad weather when playing outdoors, and improving the overall safety performance of the toy car.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the winding mechanism includes a winding roller, which is rotatably connected inside the sleeve. Both ends of the winding roller are connected to the sleeve via springs. When the rainproof cloth is pulled out from the through slot, the winding roller rotates, and the springs at both ends of the winding roller are in a wound state. When rainproofing or sunshade is not required, and the restriction on the mounting plate is lifted, the winding roller rotates in opposite directions under the reaction force of the two wound springs to wind up the rainproof cloth.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the snap-fit ​​mechanism includes a column fixed to one end of the top of the mounting bracket. A circular groove is formed on the side wall of the column, and the circular groove has a constricted opening. A circular slider is slidably connected to the inner wall of the circular groove. A snap-fit ​​post is fixed to one end of the circular slider. A spring is installed inside the circular groove, and the spring is located at the other end of the circular slider. A circular hole is formed at one end of the top of the mounting plate, and the hole and the column are adapted to press down on the two snap-fit ​​posts, causing the two circular sliders to move along the inner walls of the two circular grooves until the two snap-fit ​​posts are retracted into the two circular grooves. At this time, the two springs are compressed. Then, the two circular holes on the top of the mounting plate are respectively fitted onto the side walls of the two columns. When the top of the mounting plate is below the two snap-fit ​​posts, the reaction force of the two compressed springs pushes the two circular sliders to move in the opposite direction, thereby pushing the two snap-fit ​​posts out of the two circular grooves. At this time, both snap-fit ​​posts are located above the mounting plate. This operation method can quickly complete the fixing of the mounting plate.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a limiting ring is fitted onto the outer wall of the column, and the limiting ring is located below the circular sliding groove. The position of the mounting plate can be limited by the two limiting rings to prevent the mounting plate from moving and improve stability.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the cleaning mechanism includes two connecting plates, which are vertically fixed to the outer walls of two annular plates. The inner walls of the two connecting plates are rotatably connected to the same first lint roller, and the inner walls of the two connecting plates are rotatably connected to the same second lint roller. The first and second lint rollers are symmetrically distributed about the rainproof cloth. When the rainproof cloth is rolled up, the rainproof cloth will drive the first and second lint rollers to rotate. When the upper and lower surfaces of the rainproof cloth come into contact with the first and second lint rollers respectively, the dust and other debris on the surface of the rainproof cloth can be cleaned, thus improving the practicality of the device.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] 1. During use, this device can cover the top of the toy car body with a rainproof cloth to achieve the purpose of rain and sun protection. The design of the snap-fit ​​mechanism ensures that the mounting plate can be firmly fixed during use, avoiding the possibility of falling off due to external factors such as wind. This ensures that the rainproof cloth is always on the top of the toy car body, preventing children from being injured by exposure to bad weather when playing outdoors, and improving the overall safety performance of the toy car.

[0013] 2. The cleaning mechanism is designed to automatically remove dust and debris from the surface of the rainproof cloth when it is retracted, keeping the cloth clean and improving comfort. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0022] Reference Figures 1-6 A children's toy car with an expandable canopy structure includes a toy car body 1. A mounting frame 2 is installed on the top of the toy car body 1. Two connecting rods 5 are fixed to one end of the mounting frame 2. Annular plates 6 are fixed to one end of each of the two connecting rods 5. Rotating shafts 18 are rotatably connected to the inner side walls of the two annular plates 6. The same sleeve 15 is fixed to the two rotating shafts 18. A through groove 17 is vertically opened on the side wall of the sleeve 15. A rainproof cloth 3 is installed inside the through groove 17. A winding mechanism for winding the rainproof cloth 3 is installed inside the sleeve 15. A mounting plate 19 is fixed to one end of the rainproof cloth 3. A mounting plate 19 is symmetrically installed on the top of the other end of the mounting frame 2. The device has two snap-fit ​​mechanisms for snapping the mounting plate 19, and a cleaning mechanism for cleaning the rainproof cloth 3 is provided on the top of the sleeve 15. During use, the rainproof cloth 3 can cover the top of the toy car body 1 to achieve the purpose of rain and sun protection. The design of the snap-fit ​​mechanism ensures that the mounting plate 19 can be firmly fixed during use, avoiding the situation of falling off due to external factors such as wind. This ensures that the rainproof cloth 3 is always on the top of the toy car body 1, preventing children from being injured by exposure to bad weather when playing outdoors, and improving the overall safety performance of the toy car.

[0023] In this embodiment, the winding mechanism includes a winding roller 16, which is rotatably connected inside the sleeve 15. Both ends of the winding roller 16 are connected to the sleeve 15 via springs. When the rainproof cloth 3 is pulled out from the through groove 17, the winding roller 16 rotates, and the springs at both ends of the winding roller 16 are in a wound state. When rain or sun protection is not required, and the restriction on the mounting plate 19 is released, the winding roller 16 rotates in the opposite direction under the reaction force of the two wound springs to wind up the rainproof cloth 3.

[0024] In this embodiment, the snap-fit ​​mechanism includes a column 4, which is fixed to one end of the top of the mounting bracket 2. A circular groove 11 is provided on the side wall of the column 4, and the circular groove 11 has a constricted structure. A circular slider 13 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the circular groove 11. A snap-fit ​​post 14 is fixed to one end of the circular slider 13. A spring 12 is provided inside the circular groove 11, and the spring 12 is located at the other end of the circular slider 13. A circular hole 20 is provided at one end of the top of the mounting plate 19, and the circular hole 20 is adapted to the column 4. Pressing the two snap-fit ​​posts 14 causes the two circular sliders 13 to move along the inner sides of the two circular grooves 11 respectively. The wall moves until the two locking posts 14 are retracted into the two circular sliding grooves 11 respectively. At this time, the two springs 12 are in a compressed state. Then, the two circular holes 20 on the top of the mounting plate 19 are respectively fitted onto the side walls of the two columns 4. When the top of the mounting plate 19 is below the two locking posts 14, under the reaction force of the two compressed springs 12, the two circular sliders 13 are pushed to move in the opposite direction, thereby pushing the two locking posts 14 out of the two circular sliding grooves 11. At this time, the two locking posts 14 are both located above the mounting plate 19. This operation method can quickly complete the fixing of the mounting plate 19.

[0025] In this embodiment, a limiting ring 10 is fitted on the outer wall of the column 4, and the limiting ring 10 is located below the circular slide groove 11. The position of the mounting plate 19 can be limited by the two limiting rings 10 to prevent the mounting plate 19 from moving and improve stability.

[0026] In this embodiment, the cleaning mechanism includes two connecting plates 7, which are vertically fixed to the outer walls of two annular plates 6. The inner walls of the two connecting plates 7 are rotatably connected to the same first lint roller 8 and the same second lint roller 9. The first lint roller 8 and the second lint roller 9 are symmetrically distributed about the rainproof cloth 3. When the rainproof cloth 3 is rolled up, the rainproof cloth 3 will drive the first lint roller 8 and the second lint roller 9 to rotate. When the upper and lower surfaces of the rainproof cloth 3 come into contact with the first lint roller 8 and the second lint roller 9 respectively, the dust and other debris on the surface of the rainproof cloth 3 can be cleaned, which improves the practicality of the device.

[0027] Working Principle: During use, the rainproof cloth 3 is pre-wound onto the surface of the take-up roller 16. When rain or high temperatures necessitate covering the top of the toy car body 1, the mounting plate 19 is pulled, causing one end of the rainproof cloth 3 to gradually approach the two pillars 4. At this time, when the rainproof cloth 3 is pulled out from the through groove 17, the take-up roller 16 rotates, and the springs at both ends of the take-up roller 16 are wound. When the mounting plate 19 is pulled to the two pillars 4, the two locking pins 14 are pressed, causing the two circular sliders 13 to move along the inner walls of the two circular grooves 11 until the two locking pins 14 retract into the two circular grooves 11. At this time, the two springs 12 are compressed. Then, the two circular holes 20 at the top of the mounting plate 19 are respectively fitted onto the side walls of the two pillars 4. When the top of the mounting plate 19 is below the two locking pins 14, the reaction force of the two compressed springs 12 pushes the two pillars 4... The circular slider 13 moves in the opposite direction, pushing the two locking posts 14 out of the two circular grooves 11. At this time, both locking posts 14 are located above the mounting plate 19. This operation method can quickly fix the mounting plate 19. At this time, the rainproof cloth 3 is located on the top of the toy car body 1, which can protect against rain or sun, prevent children from getting wet or being exposed to the sun, prevent injury to children, and improve safety performance. When rain or sun protection is not needed, the restriction on the mounting plate 19 is released, and the mounting plate 19 is taken out from the side wall of the two pillars 4. At this time, under the reaction force of the two wound springs, the winding roller 16 rotates in the opposite direction to wind up the rainproof cloth 3. During the winding process, the rainproof cloth 3 will drive the first lint roller 8 and the second lint roller 9 to rotate. When the upper and lower surfaces of the rainproof cloth 3 come into contact with the first lint roller 8 and the second lint roller 9 respectively, the dust and other debris on the surface of the rainproof cloth 3 can be cleaned, which improves the practicality of the device.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
