  • Patent number: 6691842
    Abstract: A shock absorber for a radio control model includes a cylinder and a piston reciprocally received in the cylinder. The piston has an annular groove defined in the periphery thereof and dividing the piston into an upper portion and a lower portion. At least two first holes are defined in the upper portion and communicates with the annular groove. At least one second hole is defined in the lower portion and communicates with the annular groove. At least one of the second hole co-axially aligns with a corresponding one of the at least two first holes and the number of the first hole is greater than that of the second hole. At least one stopper is received in the piston between the first hole and the second hole that align with each other for selectively closing the first hole and the second hole.

  • Patent number: 6610951
    Abstract: A forward/backward switch protective structure for a remotely controllable car, including an output shaft having a differential section. Two gears are respectively rotatably disposed at two ends of the differential section. A seat body is fixedly disposed on the differential section and a shade body is fitted on the differential section. The shade body is formed with a differential engaging hole for the differential section to fit therethrough. A shade body is controlled by a shifting mechanism and movable along the differential section. The shade body is formed with an internal chamber for receiving therein the seat body. The chamber is formed with annular grooves. When the engaging sections of the shade body are respectively engaged with the stop sections of the gears, the annular grooves respectively correspond to the throw plates of the seat body. When outward centrifugally extended, the throw plates are inserted into the annular grooves to prevent the shade body from moving.

  • Patent number: 6582275
    Abstract: A structure for quickly turning up a car shell of a remotely controllable car, including two fixing boards connected with the car body for fixing the car shell. Each fixing board has a projecting column having a stop section at top end. The car shell is formed with a through hole for the column and the stop section to pass therethrough. A seat body is disposed on inner face of the car shell. A clip disposed on outer face of the car shell is connected with the seat body. The clip has a clip section and a press section. The clip section clips the column of the fixing board and is stopped by the stop section to fix the car shell. When turning up the car shell, the press section is compressed to stretch open the clip section and release the clip section from the stop of the stop section. Then the press section of the clip can be lifted to turn up the car shell.

  • Publication number: 20020196174
    Abstract: A remote controller has a body and a seat. A holding portion is between the body and the seat for being held by a hand of a user. The body is installed with a trigger and a rotary wheel for being held and operated by two hands of the user. The trigger is installed at an intersection of the body and the holding portion. The rotary wheel is installed on the body facing toward a lateral surface of the user. An angle is formed between an axial line of the rotary wheel and a moving direction of the trigger, wherein the angle is larger than 90 degrees.

  • Patent number: 6186854
    Abstract: An assembling structure for tail wing of a model airplane. The airplane body has a horizontal connecting face at tail section for connecting with the horizontal tail wing and vertical tail fin. A bottom face of the vertical tail fin is disposed with two projecting fixing rods. A center of the horizontal tail wing is formed with two through holes corresponding to the fixing rods of the tail fin. A sleeve is fitted on inner wall of each through hole. The connecting face of the tail of the airplane body is also formed with two through holes corresponding to the fixing rods of the tail fin. A sleeve is fitted on inner wall of each through hole. The fixing rods of the tail fin can be firmly passed through the tail wing and airplane body and locked by screws. Therefore, the tail wing of the model airplane can be quickly firmly assembled or disassembled from the airplane body for easy carriage or storage.

  • Patent number: 6183331
    Abstract: An assembling structure for landing gear of a model airplane, including an airplane body having a base board on which a landing gear fixing seat mounted. The landing gear is fixed on the fixing seat by fixing pins passing through the fixing seat. The cap section of the fixing pin can be rotated by 90 degrees to engage in a channel of the fixing section of the landing gear. Under such circumstance, the landing gear is disengaged from the cap section of the fixing pin and can be quickly disassembled from the fixing seat and separated from the airplane body. Accordingly, the model airplane body and the landing gear can be quickly assembled and disassembled to facilitate carriage and storage of the model airplane.
