Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toys, specifically to a children's vehicle controller with a timed shutdown function. Background Technology

[0002] Electric children's vehicles are toy cars designed specifically for children and are very popular with them. However, many parents may not realize that children often don't turn off the power after each use, leaving the vehicle plugged in for extended periods. This continuous operation puts unnecessary strain on the motor and electrical system, especially the circuit controller, which can overheat due to prolonged use. This not only affects component lifespan but may also pose safety hazards. Furthermore, if the vehicle remains on after play, the battery will continue to discharge until it is completely depleted. Over-discharge of lithium-ion or lead-acid batteries can damage their internal chemical structure, leading to reduced capacity, lower charging efficiency, or even complete failure. Frequent "dry discharge and recharge" significantly shortens battery life, increases household costs, and can cause the inconvenience of battery replacements. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, the technical problem this invention aims to solve is how to automatically power off the stroller when it is not in use. The specific technical solution is as follows:

[0004] A stroller controller with a timed shutdown function includes a housing and a circuit board. The circuit board is installed inside the housing, and multiple buttons are located on the top of the housing. The circuit board includes a main control MCU module, a power supply module, a power switch and drive module, a button backlight display module, and a lighting control module. The main control MCU module is electrically connected to the power supply module, the power switch and drive module, the button backlight control module, and the lighting control module. The power supply module provides power to the circuit board. The power switch and drive module controls the stroller's power on / off and the stroller motor's movement. When the stroller has been inactive for the specified shutdown time, the main control MCU module sends a command to the power switch and drive module; the power switch and drive module then controls the stroller to shut down. The button backlight display module controls the button backlight effects, and the lighting control module controls the stroller's lights.

[0005] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the shutdown time is 30 seconds to 30 minutes.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the multiple buttons include a self-driving mode button, a rocking mode button, a high speed button, a low speed button, a forward gear button, a neutral gear button, a reverse gear button, a power switch, and a light switch.

[0007] Beneficial effects: When the stroller remains inactive for the designated off time, the main control MCU module sends a command to the power switch and drive module; the power switch and drive module then control the stroller to turn off, offering the following advantages.

[0008] (1) Effectively reduce the risk of spontaneous combustion and improve safety: In traditional use, children often do not turn off the vehicle themselves, resulting in the vehicle being powered on for a long time. The circuit controller operates under high load and generates a lot of heat. The heat not only accelerates the aging of components, but may also cause short circuits or accidental spontaneous combustion. The stroller automatically cuts off the power after being idle for a period of time, which fundamentally eliminates the hidden dangers caused by the controller overheating for a long time, and greatly enhances the safety and reliability of the stroller.

[0009] (2) Significantly extend battery life and avoid damage from over-discharge: If the power is not cut off in time, the battery will continue to discharge until the power is exhausted. Deep discharge is extremely damaging to lithium-ion or lead-acid batteries, causing the internal active materials to decay, the capacity to drop sharply and the charging and discharging performance to decline. The main control MCU module monitors the status of the stroller and automatically shuts off when idle, effectively preventing the battery from being over-discharged, reducing the frequency of repair and replacement, and saving long-term use costs.

[0010] (3) Reduce charging frequency and improve energy efficiency: The self-power-off function helps to save the remaining power in the stroller and avoid unnecessary power waste. The battery does not need to be charged frequently, which saves household electricity, relieves the pressure on the power grid, and reduces the environmental burden caused by excessive charging cycles. In the long run, this function is both economical and environmentally friendly, and fits the modern green and energy-saving lifestyle. Attached Figure Description

[0014] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0015] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the position or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0016] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0017] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a stroller controller with a timed shutdown function includes a housing 1 and a circuit board 2. The circuit board 2 is installed inside the housing 1. Multiple buttons are provided on the top of the housing 1. The circuit board 2 is equipped with a main control MCU module, a power supply module, a power switch and drive module, a button backlight display module, and a lighting control module. The main control MCU module is electrically connected to the power supply module, the power switch and drive module, the button backlight control module, and the lighting control module. The power supply module provides power to the circuit board. The power switch and drive module controls the power on / off of the stroller and the movement of the stroller motor. When the stroller is inactive for a shutdown time (preferably 30 seconds to 30 minutes, e.g., when the stroller controller is not used or the stroller pedals are not used), the stroller will not move. The main control MCU module sends a command to the power switch and drive module; the power switch and drive module controls the stroller to turn off; the button backlight display module controls the button backlight effect; and the lighting control module controls the stroller's lights.

[0018] like Figure 3 As shown, multiple buttons include self-driving mode button 3, rocking mode button 4, high speed button 5, low speed button 6, forward gear button 7, neutral gear button 8, reverse gear button 9, power switch 10, and light switch 11.

[0019] In summary, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] (1) Effectively reduce the risk of spontaneous combustion and improve safety: In traditional use, children often do not turn off the vehicle themselves, resulting in the vehicle being powered on for a long time. The circuit controller operates under high load and generates a lot of heat. The heat not only accelerates the aging of components, but may also cause short circuits or accidental spontaneous combustion. The stroller automatically cuts off the power after being idle for a period of time, which fundamentally eliminates the hidden dangers caused by the controller overheating for a long time, and greatly enhances the safety and reliability of the stroller.

[0021] (2) Significantly extend battery life and avoid damage from over-discharge: If the power is not cut off in time, the battery will continue to discharge until the power is exhausted. Deep discharge is extremely damaging to lithium-ion or lead-acid batteries, causing the internal active materials to decay, the capacity to drop sharply and the charging and discharging performance to decline. The main control MCU module monitors the status of the stroller and automatically shuts off when idle, effectively preventing the battery from being over-discharged, reducing the frequency of repair and replacement, and saving long-term use costs.

[0022] (3) Achieve energy conservation and emission reduction, reduce charging frequency, and improve energy efficiency: The self-power-off function can help save the remaining power in the stroller, avoid unnecessary power waste, and the battery does not need to be charged frequently. This saves household electricity, relieves the pressure on the power grid, and reduces the environmental burden caused by excessive charging cycles. In the long run, this function is both economical and environmentally friendly, and fits the modern green and energy-saving lifestyle.

[0023] The above description is a further detailed explanation of the present utility model in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments. It should not be considered that the specific implementation of the present utility model is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present utility model, and all such deductions or substitutions should be considered to fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
