WHEELED VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY FOR CHILDREN

摘要

This vehicle is equipped with front and rear wheels and comprises a platform, a foldable/unfoldable steering column and a locking mechanism. According to the invention: the platform includes a cylindrical well (13), the axis of which is tilted according to an angle from 30° to 60° towards the rear of this platform (2). The steering column has a lower bent portion, connected to a cylindrical base (22) intended to be engaged into the well (13) with pivoting capability, the axis of this base (22) forming, with the axis according to which the remainder of the steering column (5) extends longitudinally, an angle complementary to 180° with the angle formed by the axis of the well (13). The locking mechanism includes a first device (16, 17; 27, 32) for angularly blocking the base (22) in the well (13), in the unfolding position of the steering column, and a second device (16, 18; 27, 32) for angularly blocking the base (22) in the well (13), in the folding position of the steering column.

主权项

1. A wheeled vehicle, notably for children, equipped with front and rear wheels and comprising:
a platform forming a footboard and a steering column, the platform having front-rear plane and a rear, and extending in a plane; the steering column is movable between an unfolding position, in which protrudes upwards from the platform, and a folding position, in which extends along the platform; the vehicle comprises a mechanism for locking the steering column in said unfolding and folding positions;wherein:
the platform comprises a well of a general cylindrical shape, the axis of which is contained in said front-rear plane of the platform and is tilted towards the rear of this platform by forming an angle from 30° to 60° with the plane in which extends the footboard; the steering column has a lower bent portion, connected to a cylindrical base on one end and to a remainder portion on the opposite end; the cylindrical base has an axis and is intended to be engaged into the well with pivoting capability in this well; the axis of the cylindrical base forms, with the axis along which the remainder portion of the steering column extends longitudinally, a complementary angle to 180° with the angle which the axis of the well forms; and the locking mechanism comprises a first device for angularly blocking the base in the well, in a first angular position of this base in which the steering column is in an unfolding position, and a second device for angularly blocking the base in the well, in a second angular position of this base in which the steering column is in a folding position.
