Abstract
A flip-over toy vehicle including a body and a pivot mechanism having a first end and a second end. The first end of the pivot mechanism is pivotally mounted to the body. The pivot mechanism is movable between a drive position wherein the second end of the pivot mechanism is positioned proximate the body and a pivoted position wherein the second end of the pivot mechanism is spaced from the body. A first wheel is rotatably mounted to the first end of the pivot mechanism. A second wheel is rotatably mounted to the second end of the pivot mechanism. A bias member is mounted to bias the second end of the pivot mechanism toward the pivoted position. A latch is movably mounted between a latched position wherein the latch retains the pivot mechanism in the drive position and an unlatched position wherein the pivot mechanism is released from the drive position to move to the pivoted position.
