ROCKER ARM ASSEMBLY FOR A MODEL VEHICLE
First Claim
1. A rocker arm for a model vehicle, comprising:
- a first portion of the rocker arm, the first portion having a pivot opening for receiving a pivot member about which the first portion rotates, an input arm extending from the pivot opening, and an output arm extending from the pivot opening;
a second portion of the rocker arm, the second portion having a pivot opening for receiving a pivot member about which the second portion rotates, an input arm extending from the pivot opening, and an output arm extending from the pivot opening;
wherein the first portion and second portion of the rocker arm are secured for rotation together about a rotational axis extending through the respective pivot openings of the first and second portions;
wherein the input arms of the first and second portions of the rocker arm are spaced apart in the general direction of the rotational axis;
wherein the output arms of the first and second portions of the rocker arm are spaced apart in the general direction of the rotational axis;
a suspension input coupling member extending between the input arms of the first and second portions, the input arms of the first and second portions spaced apart along the suspension input coupling member; and
a suspension output coupling member extending between the output arms of the first and second portions, the output arms of the first and second portions spaced apart along the suspension output coupling member.

Abstract
A rocker arm for a model vehicle is provided, comprising a first portion and second portion each having an input and an output arm and each having an opening for receiving a pivot member about which the portions rotate. The first and second portions are secured for rotation together about a rotational axis through the respective openings and are spaced apart generally along the rotational axis. The rocker arm further comprises a suspension input coupling member that extends between the input arms of the first and second portions, where the input arms are spaced along the input coupling member, and a suspension output coupling member that extends between the outputs arms of the first and second portions, where the output arms are spaced along the output coupling member.
