Abstract: An excavator shovel assembly has an excavator shovel and a shovel arm. A shovel swivel locking device locks the excavator shovel relative to the shovel arm. It has a shovel connecting lever, a shovel arm connecting lever and a rocker connecting lever. The shovel connecting lever is connected to the excavator shovel via a shovel connecting joint. The shovel arm connecting lever is connected to the shovel arm via a shovel arm connecting joint. The rocker connecting lever is connected to the shovel connecting lever via a shovel rocker connecting joint and to the shovel arm connecting lever via a shovel arm rocker connecting joint. The shovel connecting joint and the rocker connecting joints are arranged such that the rocker connecting lever is displaceable between a shovel lifting position and a shovel delivery position through a dead center position, defined by the shovel connecting joint and a rocker connecting joint.

Abstract: A wheel removal tool for a toy vehicle wheel has a tool base body and at least one rear-engagement portion. The latter is connected fixedly to the tool base body and is embodied so that it, in a removal starting position, engages behind an assigned removal portion of the toy vehicle wheel. A removal lever of the removal tool has a supporting portion for support on a vehicle component fixed on the chassis. The removal lever is adjustable relative to the tool base body between the removal starting position and a removal end position. In the latter, the at least one rear-engagement portion is displaced relative to the supporting portion in a removal direction. This results in a removal tool with which a simple detachment, which is in particular close to reality, of the toy vehicle wheel from a chassis-side vehicle component is enabled.

Abstract: A coupling for connecting a first coupling part to one toy component and a second coupling part connected to another toy component. The two coupling parts are connected to one another along a connecting axis to be rotated relative to one another thereabout. One of the coupling parts is a receiving coupling part having a locking guide receiving portion, which has a locking receiver extending in the peripheral direction about the connecting axis through more than 180°. The other coupling part is an insert coupling part having at least two insert guide portions axially spaced apart from one another along the connecting axis and guided radially in the receiving coupling part. A first insert guide portion is received to lock in the locking guide receiving portion of the receiving coupling part. A second insert guide portion is guided in a second guide receiving portion of the receiving coupling part.

Abstract: A gripper for a toy has a base body, and two gripping bodies. Each gripping body is connected by a respective gripping body connecting joint to the base body is movable between a release position with an opened gripper and a gripping position with a closed gripper. At least one gripping body is formed as a lever body and has a jaw portion and a lever portion. The associated gripping body connecting joint is arranged between the jaw portion and the lever portion. A control rod is connected to the gripping bodies by a respective control rod connecting joint and, when the gripper is open, is arranged between the gripping bodies in a freely accessible jaw encompassing region. By contact with an item to be gripped, the control rod can be moved between a release position with an opened gripper and a gripping position with a closed gripper.
