A wheel mounting construction particularly for engaging a wheel of a child's toy on an axle of the toy to facilitate its positioning and rotatable mounting, comprises a wheel having a hub portion forming a sleeve which engages over the axle and is rotatable thereon. The sleeve is held against withdrawal by the resilient engagement of slot-separated segments on one end of the sleeve into a separate small size sleeve member which is retained within a slot of a guillotine plate. The guillotine plate is movably mounted on a bracket which is affixed to the frame of the vehicle and the axle of the vehicle extends through the slot of the plate. The slot is sized so that a wall-bounding smaller diameter portion of the slot engages upwardly within a recess of the holding sleeve for the wheel hub and it prevents its withdrawal. The plate may be moved against a spring-biasing force to position the small sleeve in a large diameter portion and thus free it so that it may be removed axially along with the associated wheel. |
