Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a wheelie toy in which the direction of a running body being wheeled is changed by remote control.

Traveling toys are one of the most popular types of toys available, and have undergone numerous technological improvements to date. One such example is a traveling toy that runs in a wheelie mode, allowing you to enjoy various running modes.

However, in conventional wheelie toys,
Since it is not possible to change the direction of the vehicle running in a wheelie, it is difficult to enjoy the continuous change in running mode caused by wheelie running, and the range of play is limited.

This idea was made in view of the above circumstances.
A wheelie device consisting of a support body, auxiliary wheels provided on both sides of the support body, and a shaft protruding from the center of the upper part of the support body is attached to the rear of the traveling body so that the direction can be changed, and the wheelie device is attached to the rear of the traveling body so as to be able to change direction. A control member is provided with a magnet part on one end and a long hole part on the other end that loosely fits into the shaft of the support body, and is swingably mounted inside the running body, and the current flowing through the coil can be remotely controlled. The object of the present invention is to provide a wheelie running toy which enables direction change control of a wheelie device during wheelie running.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention shown in the drawings will be described in detail.

In the embodiment shown in the drawings, a wheelie device is attached to a toy car, and FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of the wheelie device and control member, and FIG. Figure 3 is a coil drive circuit diagram. In these drawings, 10 is a running body, 20 is a wheelie device, and 30 is a control member.

The traveling body 10 supports a front wheel 11 and a rear wheel 12, and the rear wheel 12 is connected to a motor 14 via a gear 13 and functions as a driving wheel. 15 is a support shaft erected at the rear of the traveling body 10.

The wheelie device 20 includes a chevron-shaped support 21
, auxiliary wheels 22 for wheelie running, which are rotatably provided on both sides of the support 21, and the support 21.
It is formed by a shaft rod 23 projecting from the center of the upper part. The support body 21 has a small hole 24 in the center,
One end of the support shaft 15 of the traveling body 10 is inserted into this small hole 24.
A guide rod 25 rotatably attached to the shaft is loosely inserted. Therefore, the wheelie device 20
5 is attached to the rear of the traveling body 10 so that the direction can be changed.

The control member 30 is provided with a magnet 31 at one end, and has an elongated hole section 32 at the other end that loosely fits into the shaft rod 23 of the wheelie device 20, and the support shaft 15 of the traveling body 15 is installed at the other end of the intermediate portion. Rotation hole 3 that engages with
3 is provided. Further, a spring 35 is stretched between one end of the control member 30 on the magnet 31 side and a pole 34 erected on the traveling body 10. 3
A coil 6 is disposed on one side of the magnet 31 and is connected to a receiver 37.

A drive circuit for the coil 36 shown in FIG. 3 is provided within the receiver 37. 38 is a receiving section that receives a signal from a transmitter (not shown), and 39 is a discriminator that discriminates the signal from the receiving section 38 and switches the direction of the current flowing through the coil 36. Further, as the drive circuit, in addition to the one shown in the drawings, it is also possible to use a bridge circuit to provide a single power supply. Note that a drive circuit for the motor 14 is also provided within the receiver 37, although not shown.

A wheelie toy with this configuration is
Perform the following operations to change direction during a wheelie.

When the transmitter is operated to move the traveling body 10 forward,
The traveling body 10 tilts backward due to the reaction at the time of starting and performs a wheelie. At this time, if the direction changing section of the transmitter is set to the straight-ahead position, no current will flow through the coil 36, so the control member 30 is pulled at one end by the spring 35 and positioned in the same direction as the center line of the traveling body 10. and do not change the direction of the wheelie device. Therefore, the traveling body 10 moves straight. When the direction changing section of the transmitter is set to the clockwise or counterclockwise rotation position, a current flows through the receiving section 38 and the discriminator 39 to the coil 36 to attract or repel the magnet 31. When the magnet 31 is attracted,
The control member 30 rotates counterclockwise about the support shaft 15, and at the same time, the long hole 32 causes the wheelie device 20 to rotate counterclockwise about the support shaft 15. As a result, the traveling body 10 rotates clockwise to change the direction of wheelie travel. Conversely, when the magnet 31 is activated, the control member 30 and the wheelie device 20 rotate clockwise, changing the wheelie traveling direction of the vehicle 10 to the left. Note that when the direction changing section of the transmitter is set to the straight-ahead position, the coil 36 stops attracting and repelling, so the control member 30 reactivates the spring 35.
The traveling body 10 is pulled back to its original position and moves straight.

The traveling direction of the traveling body 10 can be changed while the traveling toy is running in a wheelie by operating the direction changing section of the transmitter, so that the user can enjoy various types of wheelies. Further, when the traveling body 10 is moved backward, the traveling body 10 returns to its normal posture due to the reaction at the time of starting and travels. At this time, depending on the orientation of the front wheels 11, the running toy moves straight or rotates in either the left or right direction. The traveling toy can also be moved forward, backward, and stopped by operating each operating section of the transmitter.

Note that the shaft rod 23 of the support body 20 and the long hole portion 32 of the control member 30 fit together, and the central small hole 24 of the support body 20
By loosely fitting the guide rods 25 and 25 with a gap between them, the wheelie device 20 can be supported with the same effect as three-point support when the traveling toy is traveling straight. Furthermore, the traveling body 10 in the present invention has a broad concept including not only the chassis portion but also the vehicle body.

As described above, according to the present invention, the traveling direction of the toy running in a wheelie can be changed by remote control. can have a wide range of In addition, the structure is simple, and it has the advantage of being strong against shocks and having few failures.
