<p>The present invention relates to a vehicle steering mechanism, in particular a mechanism for enabling steering of a children's car by an adult from behind. There is described a toy vehicle, in or on which, a child may, in use, sit, the vehicle including two steerable rotatable wheels mounted upon a chassis (20), the steering being controlled by means of a handle (24) extending from the rear of the vehicle; characterised in that the steerable wheels are mounted upon respective wheel stub axles (40, 41) each forming a part of a respective crank lever (42, 43) which includes a respective spigot (40, 45) engageable for rotation within a respective socket (46, 47) mounted upon the chassis; and in that the crank levers include respective link arms (48, 49) provided orthogonally to the respective spindle (40, 45) directed rearwardly and linked by a tie rod (50) through pivotable couplings such that rotation of one spigot about its vertical axis causes a corresponding rotation of the other spigot.</p> |
