Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for controlling the speed an electrically powered toy vehicle on a track-guided racetrack according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention further relates to a Device for performing such a method according to the preamble of claim 6.
  • a hand controller for example is pistol-shaped, which allows the speed of the To control the toy vehicle between a zero position and a maximum position.
  • a transformer has traditionally been used provided by which the basic speed of the cars are controlled could. New legal regulations for children's play vehicles leave the However, use of such transformers no longer increases.
  • the boost button can be used as be formed separate button, but it can also be formed that the control button of the speed after reaching a first Speed level must overcome an obstacle to the second To reach the speed range.
  • the invention has for its object a method for controlling the Speed of an electric toy vehicle on a track-guided one Racetrack indicate that the setting different Speed levels without the use of a transformer that enables one high security guaranteed and great playing comfort.
  • the invention is still the task of a facility for carrying out a to specify such procedure.
  • the invention relates to a method for controlling the speed of an electric toy vehicle on a track-guided racetrack by means of a manually operated control device, in which the speed of the Toy vehicle is adjustable to at least two speed levels.
  • the second speed level can be the maximum achievable Represent speed by the electronics, the power supply, the mechanical structure and condition of the train and the vehicle is achievable.
  • In the range between the zero position and the second Speed level is the height of the first speed level as Fraction of the second speed level via the control device programmable.
  • the speed of the Toy vehicle between a zero position and the first Speed level can be set, whereby after pressing a Selection switch the speed of the toy vehicle between the Zero position and the second speed level is adjustable.
  • the Control device can therefore be used to during the regular Game operation the speed of the toy between the zero position and the first speed level. Only when one Selection switch, for example a boost button, is pressed, enlarged the speed range between the zero position and the second Speed level.
  • one Selection switch for example a boost button
  • an additional button is pressed. So that is the safety against flying out of the vehicle during normal play the track or damage to the environment is reduced.
  • others Speed levels between the zero position and the second Speed level can be programmed or selected.
  • a speed level is preferably set by Programming a microprocessor.
  • the second speed level can either be a one-off Actuation of the selection switch can be reached, but it is preferred intended to be able to reach the second speed level only as long as long as the selection switch is operated at the same time.
  • the determination of the height of the speed levels for example by Programming, preferably done by manual operation of Function levels of a button on the control device.
  • the storage of the The speed level is then activated by pressing a separate one Switching means.
  • the functional level of a push button can, for example, thereby achieved that a boost button is pressed for more than 5 seconds.
  • a specific speed level can be selected. Pressing the Boost button for a longer time can then do this in one Store the memory of a microprocessor device.
  • the respective functions of the actuation can be done on one Display device are shown, with two LEDs to support can be provided.
  • the method is a control device with a microprocessor programmable definition of at least two speed levels of the Toy vehicle provided.
  • a control device is also provided for Setting the speed of the toy vehicle from a zero position up to a selected speed level. Notification of a selection switch can the speed level to be selected is selected for the control device become.
  • the toy vehicle is preferably driven by a controllable one Pulse width modulation, in which a selected stored Speed level is the maximum value with the control device over the Setting the pulse width modulation achievable speed of the Toy vehicle represents.
  • the programming possibility of the Control device also allows extended setting options for different speed levels, it is also possible to use the selectable speed levels driving characteristics curves, for example Acceleration profiles or braking profiles to be added.
  • the toy vehicle behaves accordingly when setting a certain speed level accordingly the selected default.
  • the invention is explained in more detail below using an exemplary embodiment explained.
  • the single figure shows a schematic view of a Control device according to the present invention.
  • control device 1 is in one rectangular housing, similar to a TV remote control, built-in.
  • Means A connection 4 establishes the connection to the racetrack. It can however, it can also be provided to be controlled by infrared or radio signals to enable wireless operation.
  • the Power is preferably supplied by standard batteries or a Accumulator.
  • LEDs 8, 9, which for Display of the operating state of the control device can be used.
  • the LED's can be designed as separate LEDs, but they can also be designed as Combined single LED can be designed, which can be controlled in two colors.
  • control device By lighting up a color it can be shown, for example, that the control device is in programming mode while on display a different color shows the selected speed level.
  • the respective stages and profiles can preferably be shown on the display 3 become.
  • the driving toy is controlled by means of the control device 2, which is part of the control device 1.
  • the control device 2 which is part of the control device 1.
  • the speed of the Driving toy can be increased while pressing the minus button Speed can be reduced.
  • the function of the buttons can For example, be designed so that an increase or decrease in Speed can be done by repeatedly tapping the buttons. Alternatively, the duration of the actuation can also be used for control become.
  • the programming mode of the device is activated, for example, by actuation the Boost button 7 is reached by more than 5 seconds. Accordingly, the Programming status on one of the LEDs 8 or 9 and also the Display 3 are shown.
  • a certain speed level can be set, which either appears as a coded number in display 3 or in the case of a correspondingly more complex display 3, immediately in plain text can be represented.
  • the drive motor When the drive is switched off to the zero position, the drive motor preferably short-circuited to achieve immediate braking.
