Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a range of toys comprising at least one miniaturized reproduction of a vehicle or a motorized vehicle, said reproduction being actuated by an electric motor and internally carrying a clean source of electrical energy, said range of toys comprising, in addition, at least one miniaturized reproduction of an accessory or of an additional apparatus which can be coupled in a removable manner to said reproduction of vehicle or motorized vehicle.
  • French patent FR-A-1 128493 describes a toy comprising a motor vehicle and a stop station in the form of a gasoline column.
  • the vehicle is equipped with a spring drive mechanism and the fuel column is provided with a mechanism designed to be coupled to the vehicle drive mechanism in order to allow the child to wind the spring.
  • the column plays the role of an external energy source capable of recharging the internal energy source of the vehicle.
  • the present invention proposes to produce a range of toys reproducing, from a simple model, a series of motorized vehicles or machines with which a whole series of accessories can also be motorized.
  • the range of toys according to the invention is characterized in that said reproduction of a vehicle or motorized vehicle comprises a first socket outlet connected to said source of electrical energy, in that said reproduction of accessory or complementary device also comprises an electric motor and means for connecting said electric motor of the accessory or complementary device to the first socket taken by the vehicle or motorized vehicle.
  • the reproduction of a motorized vehicle or machine consists of at least one basic unit consisting of a chassis carrying the electric motor, at least two axles each equipped with two wheels, at least one of the axes being coupled to the output shaft of the electric motor, said own source of electric energy and said vehicle energy intake; and at least one removable and / or interchangeable body for covering said chassis. Thanks to this basic unit and a series of various bodies, the child can make a whole range of very diverse vehicles.
  • This chassis also includes mechanical members for mechanically coupling said accessory or additional device.
  • the chassis is reversible in such a way that it can be used in one direction or the other, depending on the bodywork provided.
  • said base unit comprises a front end and a rear end, each of these ends possibly constituting either the front or the rear of the reproduction of a vehicle or motorized vehicle, depending on the bodywork adapted to this basic unit.
  • the basic unit is used in the first direction to be dressed in a truck, fire engine, passenger car etc ... and in the other direction when it is dressed in tractor, construction machine etc ...
  • the base unit carries a control member, preferably a pivoting lever, intended to control at least the following functions: forward travel, reverse travel and stopping the vehicle.
  • each base unit has a second power outlet connected to the terminals of the motor to allow connection of an external source of electrical energy, for example the own source from a second base unit to the engine of the first base unit.
  • an external source of electrical energy for example the own source from a second base unit to the engine of the first base unit.
  • the base unit 10 consists of a chassis 11, for example of molded synthetic material, carrying an electric motor 12, a source of electric energy constituted for example by a series of dry cells or accumulators 13, and four wheels 14 mounted in pairs on two axes 15 at least one of which is coupled to the output shaft (not shown) of the engine 12.
  • This chassis also carries a control lever 16, swivel, designed to control forward, reverse and stop the vehicle.
  • An electrical power outlet 17 is mounted on one of the faces of the chassis to allow the coupling (as shown in Figures 4 and 5) of accessories associated with the vehicle obtained after dressing the base unit.
  • a pivoting hoop 18 allows the mechanical coupling of various accessories or complementary devices, in particular a sandblaster as shown in FIG. 5.
  • a second socket 19 can be provided to allow the motor 12 to be supplied by an external source, in particular by the source of electrical energy from another base unit.
  • FIG. 2 represents a base unit 10 on which a truck body 20 is fitted, composed for example of a cabin 21 made of synthetic material placed at the front of the base unit 10 and retained by two lateral pins 22, and a bucket 23 also fixed to the chassis by two lateral pins 24.
  • Figure 3 shows this same unit of. base 10 used in the other direction to receive a body 30 which dresses this unit in a caterpillar tractor.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates a vehicle as represented by FIG. 2 to which a concrete mixer 40 has been associated, the motor 41 of the concrete mixer is supplied by the source of the vehicle 42 through the cable 43 connected to the socket 17 secured to the unit basic dressed in a truck to form the vehicle 42.
  • FIG. 5 represents another assembly in which a truck 44 tows a sandblaster 45 whose engine 46 is powered by the electric power source of the vehicle 44 through a cable 47 connected to the power outlet 17.
  • the sandblaster is mechanically connected to a hook 48 which can be fixed to the base unit on the side opposite to the arch 18 ( Figure 1).
