Abstract
The present invention discloses a toy vehicle and a method to operate the toy vehicle. The toy vehicle comprises a chassis member having a through cavity between a proximal end portion and a distal end portion of the chassis. A rotatable toy is received within the through cavity and pivotally coupled to the chassis member via a pivot member to be rotated along a pivot point. The rotatable toy has two head portions aligned angularly apart and mirroring each other. The rotatable toy is configured to rotate at about 90 degrees when the chassis member rotates at about 180 degrees such that one head portion of the two head portions is always posing out of the through cavity in a direction of a travel of the toy vehicle.
Claims19
A toy vehicle, comprising:
- a chassis member extending longitudinally between a proximal end portion and a distal end portion, the chassis member having a through cavity defined between the proximal and distal end portions;
- a set of wheels rotatably attached to the proximal end portion and the distal end portion, each wheel including a height greater than a height of the chassis member;
- and
- a rotatable toy received within the through cavity and pivotally coupled to the chassis member via a pivot member to be rotated along a pivot point, the rotatable toy having two head portions aligned angularly apart and mirroring each other,
- wherein the rotatable toy is configured to rotate at about 90 degrees when the chassis member rotates at about 180 degrees such that one head portion of the two head portions is always posing out of the through cavity in a direction of travel of the toy vehicle.
A toy vehicle system, comprising:
- at least one slanted surface;
- and
- at least one toy vehicle adapted to be driven on the at least one slanted surface, the at least one toy vehicle comprising:
- a chassis member extending longitudinally between a proximal end portion and a distal end portion, the chassis member having a through cavity defined between the proximal and distal end portions;
- a set of wheels rotatably attached to the proximal end portion and the distal end portion, each wheel including a height greater than a height of the chassis member;
- and
- a rotatable toy received within the through cavity and pivotally coupled to the chassis member via a pivot member to be rotated along a pivot point, the rotatable toy having two head portions aligned angularly apart and mirroring each other,
- wherein the rotatable toy is configured to rotate at about 90 degrees when the chassis member rotates at about 180 degrees, upon falling from the at least one slanted surface, such that one head portion of the two head portions is always posing out of the through cavity in a direction of a travel of the at least one toy vehicle.
A method to operate a toy vehicle, the method comprising:
- driving a toy vehicle on at least one slanted surface, the toy vehicle having:
- a chassis member extending longitudinally between a proximal end portion and a distal end portion, the chassis member having a through cavity defined between the proximal and distal end portions;
- a set of wheels rotatably attached to the proximal end portion and the distal end portion, each wheel including a height greater than a height of the chassis member;
- and
- a rotatable toy received within the through cavity and pivotally coupled to the chassis member via a pivot member to be rotated along a pivot point, the rotatable toy having two head portions aligned angularly apart and mirroring each other;
- and
- falling of the toy vehicle from the at least one slanted surface, wherein the rotatable toy is configured to rotate at about 90 degrees when the chassis member rotates at about 180 degrees, upon falling of the toy vehicle, such that one head portion of the two head portions is always posing out of the through cavity in a direction of a travel of the at least one toy vehicle.
