Description

Bypass device for electric vehicles toy.

Bypass device for electric vehicles of toy, of the type comprising guide means that define a given path with a fork, an electric vehicle with a guide follower, said guide follower being arranged in the inside the guiding means, feeding means of the electric vehicle and means of control of the electric vehicle characterized in that the guide means comprise at least two depth levels, which from the fork start at different directions, and the guide follower is adaptable to the different depths of the media depth levels of guide.

Background of the invention

The requesting company itself is known in the sector to develop different inventions related to electric vehicles, including some related to the changes of track.

Thus, International Patent No. WO04037365, "Bypass system for guiding means in a set of vehicles ", of the year 2002, which refers to the diversion system for guiding means in a vehicle set, said game being of the type comprising a path determined by guide means and at least one vehicle provided with a guide follower adapted to said guiding means for following said trajectory, comprising: less a fork in said guide means from which some first and second branches; a needle mounted on said fork of so that it can move between a first position, in which said vehicle guide follower is forced to follow by said first branch, and a second position, in which the guide follower he is forced to follow by the second branch; characterized because comprises: an arm attached to said needle and provided with an end of contact located upstream of said needle, said being contact end capable of being pushed when passing the vehicle by a retractable mobile member associated with the vehicle before the guide follower reach the needle to change the needle of said first position to said second position, or vice versa, during a enough time for the guide follower to be forced to follow for the selected final position, a system being incorporated of control to remotely activate said mobile member of the vehicle.

The Spanish Utility Model is also known No. 0276508 "Diverter device for tracks and tracks toy "of the year 1983, on behalf of SERVICIOS E INDUSTRIAS DEL JUGUETE, S.A, which refers to a diverter device for tracks and toy tracks, characterized essentially by the fact of being constituted by a rectangular forming plate that is placed in the center of the junction zone of the diversion or change of needles, whose plate has a rib along its edges; having, the opposite side to the deviation, curved with it turnout radius, and being articulated, by a central point vertical, to the track body, on which it pivots to impulses of a brace, which passes under the track body and through an eyelet provided on the track body itself hooks to the plate diverter the strap being operated, at the other end, through of a conventional needle change lever, mounted on a solidarity surface of the lateral body of the track.

Brief Description of the Invention

The present invention is an improvement in the sector of diverting devices for electric vehicles, especially For young children.

As can be seen in the background of the invention, diversion devices currently in existence they need a mechanical device on the track itself that deflects a side or other the electric vehicle.

These devices cannot be used, then, for young children, due to the danger involved they can introduce their fingers in these detours.

That is why track devices for electric toy vehicles intended for young children not incorporate deviations that are not forced by the design of the circuit.

The inventor has developed a new device of detours that does not include any mechanical mechanism in the own track that deflects the electric vehicle on one side or the other toy.

Thus the guide means have at least two different depths, which start at a fork and that allow when the electric vehicle goes through one of said guiding means, the user decides if he wants to turn or not, lowering the car guide follower. Thus by lowering the follower guide of the initial position to a second position, upon reaching the fork, the guide follower is introduced into the guide means that is at a greater depth following the direction and route that said guide means.

On the contrary if the user did not lower the guide follower, the electric vehicle would continue on the route with the same depth as the initial position of the guide follower.

It is an object of the present invention a diverting device for electric toy vehicles, of the type comprising guide means defining a given trajectory with a fork, an electric vehicle with a guide follower, said guide follower being arranged inside the means guide, power means of the electric vehicle and about control means of the electric vehicle characterized in that the guiding means comprise at least two levels of depth, which from the fork they leave in different directions, and the follower guide is adaptable to the different depths of the levels of depth of the guide means.

Brief description of the drawings

In order to facilitate the explanation, accompany herewith two sheets of drawings in which they have represented a practical case of realization, which is cited by way of example, not limiting the scope of this invention:

- Figure 1 is a view of the track.

- Figure 2 is a sectional view of a fork, with the movement of the electric vehicle not sectioned

Concrete embodiment of the present invention

Thus in Figure 1 a track 7 is illustrated, some guide means 2, with a first level of depth 2a and a second depth level 2b, a fork 3 and inclined planes 6.

In figure 2 a vehicle has been represented electric 1 with its guide follower 4, track 7, guide means 2 with its first level of depth 2a and its second level of depth 2b and fork 3.

Thus, in a specific embodiment, the electric toy vehicle 1, moved by means of drive (not shown), for example batteries, circulates through guide means 2, said electric vehicle 1 guided by its guide follower 4 which is located inside said means guide 2. (Fig. 2)

Forks 3, in this embodiment they have two guide means 2 located at different depths 2a, 2b (Fig. 1 and 2).

If the user directed the electric vehicle 1 by the first level of depth 2a, before reaching the fork 3 you must decide if you want to change direction or continue on the one that marks the first level of depth 2nd.

If you wish to change direction and take the address of the second level of depth 2b, the user will give a order the control means (not shown) to lower the guide follower 4 (fig. 2). Once the guide follower leaves the first depth level 2a will go down until you find the second level of depth 2b and will change direction to the car by taking said route.

If on the contrary you do not wish to take the route of the second level of depth 2b, you should not lower the guide follower 4 and this one would continue for the first level of depth 2a leading by that route to the electric vehicle 1.

For a better displacement between a depth and other, it has been thought in the installation of some planes inclined 6 (fig. 1) that join two levels of depth 2a, 2b different, in this way the guide follower 4 can go up or down as appropriate, progressively.

The present invention patent describes a new diverting device for electric toy vehicles. The examples mentioned here are not limiting here. invention, therefore it may have different applications and / or adaptations, all of them within the scope of the following claims.
