Definitions

  • the invention relates to an actuating device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • An actuating device of this type is described and shown in DE-AS 11 78 341.
  • the known design consists of an actuator that can be rotated about an axis and displaceable along the axis, with which an electric drive motor can be switched on and off by its displacement and with which, by rotating it in one or the other direction of rotation, either the front or Reverse travel of the toy vehicle can be set.
  • a mechanical reversing gear is used for this purpose, on which the rotary movements of the actuating button act.
  • the known design is complex on the one hand because of the mechanical transmission and therefore expensive and on the other hand sensitive in principle.
  • there is a risk of damage to the transmission if the operator changes the direction of travel by turning the actuating button without switching off the drive motor and without remaining idle until the vehicle comes to a stop.
  • meshing gears are brought out of and into engagement under load, which leads to unpleasant noise and wear on the gears.
  • Proper operation in the known design thus consists in first idling and after the toy vehicle has come to a standstill to switch the other direction on. This mode of operation is particularly difficult for a child when he wants to change the direction of travel of the toy vehicle while driving. It must be taken into account here that the toy vehicle can have a greater distance from the child in the context of a play device and therefore the actuating member of the actuating device is difficult to reach from the beginning.
  • the invention has for its object to improve an actuator of the aforementioned type with a simple design so that a simple switch from one direction to the other is possible.
  • a gear train for reversing the direction of rotation of the drive motor is eliminated because this is brought about by a pole-reversal switch which can be switched over by the actuating element of the actuating device.
  • a pole-reversal switch with three switch positions is used, with which the direction of travel of the toy vehicle can be adjusted by switching to the relevant external position and the toy vehicle can be switched off by switching to the central position. No special attention is required in these switching operations, and it is also possible to quickly switch the actuator of the actuating device from the position for one direction of travel to the position for the other direction of travel.
  • the toy vehicle can be stopped in two ways.
  • the chimney of a locomotive is particularly suitable, because such a chimney can be made high and in particular higher than the driver's cab of the locomotive for the purpose of easier accessibility.
  • a practical solution for holding or guiding the actuator is specified, the existing boiler of the locomotive being used for storage.
  • the reversing switch can be arranged below the actuator in or below the boiler at a protected location.
  • the embodiment contained in claim 5 leads to a simple design while realizing the inclined surfaces for the purpose of automatically turning the actuator back into the central position when it is displaced.
  • the locomotive shown completely and in perspective in FIG. 1 is located on a track section generally designated 1 and has a large number of components typical of a locomotive, in particular a driver's cab 2, a boiler 3, a steam dome 4 and a vent 5 with a Cover 6, which has a button 7 above.
  • the chimney 5 is integrated in an actuating device for the locomotive, with which the driving movement the locomotive and forward and backward travel can be switched on.
  • the actuating device consists of the cover 6 and a shaft 9 rotatably mounted about the vertical chimney axis 8 in the boiler 3, which form the chimney 5, and a reversing switch 10, the movable switching element 11 of which is formed by a slot 12 and is formed by two upwardly projecting lugs 9 is gripped in a fork shape, and is switchable in three switch positions.
  • the reversing switch 10 is arranged above a printed circuit board 12 shown in detail in FIG. 3, from which electrical connecting lines lead to an electric motor 14, which is only indicated, and the batteries, not shown.
  • the contact plates 15 of the reversing switch 10 can also be switched into the three switching positions.
  • the boiler 3 has an integrally molded annular attachment 16, which forms a guide 18 delimited by a shoulder 17 on the underside.
  • the ' cover 6 can be inserted with a tube extension 19 on the underside.
  • the width a of which tapers symmetrically on the upper side so that two lateral inclined surfaces 21 are formed in each case.
  • the cover 6 is inserted into the guide 18 and at the same time attached to the upper end of the shaft 9.
  • the shaft 9 and the cover 6 are on the one hand by a shoulder 24, on which the cover 6 rests, and on the other hand by hooks 25, which are in recesses 26 of the Cover 6 are snapped together.
  • the cover 6 and the shaft 9 are jointly prestressed upwards by a compression spring which is supported on a cross member 27 carrying the boiler 3 and presses against an annular shoulder 28 of the shaft 9. As a result, the shaft 9 is biased upward against the attachment 16. Due to a free space between the shoulder 17 and the underside of the cover 6, the cover 6 with the shaft 9 can be displaced vertically by the dimension S. The cover 6 and the shaft 9 can also be rotated about the chimney axis 8 in the guide 18. This rotational mobility is limited by the swivel range of the movable switch element 11 of the pole-reversal switch 10. The length of the shaft 9 is dimensioned such that the fork-shaped overlap of the movable switch member 11 is ensured in its upper normal position (Fig. 6).
  • the lower end of the shaft 9 receives its guidance in two ways. On the one hand, it is guided on the pole-reversal switch 10 and, on the other hand, in the crossmember 27, which it engages in a bore 29 with play.
  • the driving movement of the locomotive is switched on by turning the cover 6 either in one or the other direction of rotation, whereby the direction of travel of the locomotive can be selected at the same time.
  • the pole-reversal switch 10 is switched into one of its two outer positions, one of which is shown in FIG. 2.
  • An outside position means driving forwards or backwards, while in the middle position the electric motor 14 is switched off. This is achieved by the contact plates 15 bridging the corresponding plated supports of the printed circuit board 12.
  • the respective rotary movement is stopped by turning the cover 6 back into its central position, as a result of which the polarity switch 10 is switched to its central position and the Electric motor 14 is turned off. Stopping the driving movement or switching off the electric motor 14 can also be achieved by pressing down the cover 6 or the vent 5. When pressed down, which can also be caused by a blow to the cover 6, depending on the switching position one of the two inclined surfaces 21 hits the shoulder 22, whereby the cover 6 or the chimney 5 and thus also the reversing switch 10 is pivoted into its central position . When the chimney 5 is pressed down or knocked down, the cover 6 sits with its lower edge 31 on the attachment 16, which ensures good support and prevents damage.
  • the button 7 on the cover 6 facilitates its return to the central position when the chimney 5 is pressed down or knocked down, because, due to the small diameter of the button 7 in comparison with the diameter of the cover 6, when pressed or knocked down with a flat hand or an object lower torque is sufficient to turn the chimney 5 back into its central position.
  • the chimney 5 is so high that the cover 6 projects beyond the cab 2 and thus represents the highest component. This simplifies the operation of the locomotive because the cover 6 can be easily reached as an actuator from all sides.
  • the drive device does not necessarily have to be an electric motor; it is sufficient to be able to be controlled by means of the pole-reversal switch 10.
