ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to convertible children's fun-car devices, go-carts and wheeled carriers, and provides removable and stowable wheel stands or chocks that allow for convenient conversion of such wheeled carrier devices from typical rolling devices to fixed, stationary play toys for use with infants and toddlers, typically not yet walking. The invention allows for selective resilient or screw placement of the wheel stands on two or more wheels to prevent overall device movement, and also provides that the wheel stands along with their associated wheel may further be entirely folded into the profile of the wheeled device, converting the overall fun-car into a completely flat, ultra thin profile with all parts and wheels still attached. Further, the wheel stands may instead be quickly detached from the wheels and stowed inside a compartment in the carrier device, such as in the simulated trunk or hood area. The stands may be adapted to foot, pedal, battery and motive power devices with or without fold flat wheel assemblies.
