METHOD OF MODIFYING A DRIVELINE OF A TOY VEHICLE, MODIFIED TOY VEHICLE DRIVELINE, AND KIT FOR MODIFYING A DRIVELINE OF A TOY VEHICLE
A method of modifying a driveline of a toy vehicle is provided. The first step involves disengaging a first end of an original drive shaft of the toy vehicle from a gearbox of the toy vehicle, where the gearbox is in a location such that it limits the travel of the suspension of the toy truck beuase it can come into contact with the differential. The second step involves disengaging a second end of the original drive shaft of the toy vehicle from a transfer box. The third step includes removing the original drive shaft from the toy vehicle. The fourth step involves dismounting the gearbox from the first and second longitudinal beams of the chassis. Next, the transfer box is dismounted from the first and second longitudinal beams of the chassis. The gearbox is then remounted to the first longitudinal beam with a first bracket and to the second longitudinal beam with a second bracket such that the gearbox is positioned at an offset from a central longitudinal axis of the chassis, and located such that the gearbox is positioned away from the differential on the opposite side of the central longitudinal axis. The transfer box is then remounted to the chassis in a position that is 180 degrees relative to the original mounting position. Next, a first end of a replacement drive shaft assembly is attached to the gearbox and a second end of the replacement drive shaft assembly is attached to the transfer box. Finally, the propeller shaft is reengaged with the transfer box. A modified toy vehicle driveline and a kit for modifying a toy vehicle driveline are also provided.
Frame, undercarriage and radio-controlled vehicle
A radio-controlled vehicle having a frame, a left undercarriage and a right undercarriage; wherein the frame has a front guide and a rear guide, each configured to house a respective cylinder; each undercarriage having a front slide and a rear slide, which are connected in a sliding manner to the front guide and to the rear guide, respectively; wherein each cylinder is configured to selectively vary the distance between the longitudinal axis of the frame and the longitudinal axis of each undercarriage; wherein each undercarriage comprises an anti-derailment plate.
TOY BUILDING BLOCKS
The invention relates to a toy building block system (100) comprising one or more building blocks (200); and one or more wheels (300); wherein each said building block (200) comprises: a first elongate portion (2) extending in a longitudinal direction (X); a second elongate portion (4) extending in said longitudinal direction (X); an intermediate portion (6) connecting said first elongate portion (2) with said second elongate portion (4) at a middle position (8) thereof; a first end portion (10) extending in a transverse direction (Y), perpendicular to said longitudinal direction (X), from said first elongate portion (2), at a side thereof opposite to said intermediate portion (6), and at a middle position thereof; a second end portion (12) extending in said transverse direction (Y), perpendicular to said longitudinal direction (X), from said second elongate portion (4), at a side opposite to said intermediate portion (6), and at a middle position thereof; said building block thereby comprises six protrusions (14) and two voids (16), wherein each void (16) is being defined between an end of said first elongate portion (2) and an end of said second elongate portion (4). wherein each said wheel (300) comprises a hub (18); and a wheel rim (20); wherein said wheel rim (20) is surrounding said hub (18); and wherein said wheel rim (20) is being attached to said hub (18) in such a way that said wheel rim is configured to be able to swivel around a rotational axis (A) in relation to said hub; wherein said hub (18) at a centre (22) thereof comprises a hole (24) extending in an axial direction (A); wherein the dimensions and geometry of said hole (24) are adapted to the dimensions and geometry of one of said protrusions (14) of said building block (200); so as to be able to accommodate said protrusion (14) and thereby hold said protrusion (14) of said building block (200) in place in said hole (24) of said hub (18) solely by friction.
RIDE-ON TOY VEHICLE
A ride-on vehicle for children comprising a main body that includes one or more built-in toy vehicle tracks that allow a toy vehicle to travel on the main body. A wheel assembly comprising a plurality of wheels is coupled to the main body. A drive assembly is operatively coupled to the wheel assembly and is configured to drive two or more wheels of the wheel assembly. A steering assembly is also operatively coupled to the wheel assembly and is configured to steer the vehicle based on a received user input.
Steering Mechanism of Model Vehicle and Servo Motor for Steering
A steering mechanism of a model vehicle which improves steering control accuracy is provided. The steering mechanism of the model vehicle includes the servo motor for steering configured to rotationally drive a steerable wheel of a model vehicle in a steering angle direction, the servo motor for steering being positioned between arm parts and the steerable wheel, the arm parts extending from a vehicle body side of the model vehicle to the steerable wheel. The servo motor for steering includes an output shaft parallel to a steering rotation axis of the steerable wheel and is configured to rotationally drive the steerable wheel by the output shaft.
Multi-function centered wheel ride-on toy
A ride-on toy includes a main body having a lower wall and a centered wheel. The centered wheel is rotatably mounted in the main body with a portion of the wheel protruding from the main body through an opening in the lower wall, such that when the ride-on toy is disposed on a flat surface, it can be rocked back and forth relative to an axis defined by the centered wheel. A seat is arranged over the wheel and between two handles of different lengths. Stabilizers are connected to the lower wall at opposite sides of the opening. The centered wheel may be hollow and contain one or more developmental toys.
