Fig. 1 illustrates a track toy 10 in accordance with some preferred embodiments of the present application, the track toy 10 being configured to drive a traveling object 20 for movement, the shape of the traveling object 20 being flexibly configurable, and flexibly adjustable depending on design requirements. The track toy 10 includes a housing 1 and a traveling mechanism 2, the traveling mechanism 2 is disposed on the housing 1, the housing 1 serves to support and mount the remaining mechanisms and components, and the traveling mechanism 2 is used to drive a traveling object 20 to move.

As shown in fig. 1 to 5, the traveling mechanism 2 includes a base 21, a plurality of reciprocating runways 22 slidably provided on the base 21 and for carrying traveling objects, a plurality of elastic members 23 connecting the base 21 and each reciprocating runway 22, a driving member 24 provided on the base 21, and a driving roller 25 connecting the driving member 24.

It should be noted that the traveling mechanism 2 may be applied to other fields to provide necessary power, in addition to the toy field.

The driving roller 25 is provided with a plurality of driving shifting sheets 251, each driving shifting sheet 251 is in one-to-one correspondence with each reciprocating runway 22 and is detachably propped against each other, the driving piece 24 drives the driving roller 25 to rotate, and each reciprocating runway 22 is propped against each driving shifting sheet 251 to respectively drive a travelling object to move; after the reciprocating runway 22 is separated from the driving shifting piece 251, the elastic piece 23 drives the reciprocating runway 22 to reset and slide, so that the travelling object and the reciprocating runway 22 are relatively displaced.

It will be appreciated that the base 21 serves to support the sliding movement of each reciprocating runway 22 and also to mount and carry the remaining components. The reciprocating runway 22 is used for carrying the travelling object 20, and the reciprocating runway 22 plays a role of driving the travelling object 20 to travel. The elastic member 23 is used for providing a force for driving the reciprocating runway 22 to return and slide. The drive member 24 is adapted to provide torque to the drive roller 25. The driving roller 25 is used for driving each driving plectrum 251 to rotate synchronously, and each driving plectrum 251 is used for supporting the reciprocating runway 22 to slide relative to the base 21.

In the process of the embodiment, each driving plectrum 251 is driven by the driving roller 25 to rotate synchronously, in the process that the driving plectrum 251 rotates to be close to the reciprocating runway 22, the driving plectrum 251 props against the reciprocating runway 22, and in the propped state, the continuously rotating driving plectrum 251 props against the reciprocating runway 22 to slide, and the reciprocating runway 22 drives the travelling objects 20 arranged on the driving plectrum 251 to move together relative to the shell 1.

With further rotation of the driving roller 25, the driving pulling piece 251 is separated from the reciprocating runway 22, after separation, the driving pulling piece 251 does not support the reciprocating runway 22 any more, and the released elastic piece 23 drives the reciprocating runway 22 to reset and slide in the recovery process.

The instantaneously released elastic piece 23 drives the reciprocating runway 22 to reset quickly, the reciprocating runway 22 and the travelling object 20 which reset quickly generate relative friction, namely, the two can generate relative displacement, the travelling object 20 is slightly reset under the driving of the reciprocating runway 22, or the current position of the travelling object 20 is kept relative to the base 21 in the quick resetting process of the reciprocating runway 22. In this way, continuous travel of the traveling object 20 on the base 21 is achieved.

It should be noted that the driving roller 25 may be configured to be provided with a plurality of driving paddles 251, and further, the number of driving paddles 251 may be increased or decreased by increasing the number of reciprocating movements required by the single reciprocating runway 22 during a single rotation of the rotating roller 25. For example, the number of driving paddles 251 for driving one driving device is increased, so that the number of times that the reciprocating runway 22 is propped by the driving paddles 251 successively and runs is increased in the process of rotating the rotating roller 25 for one circle.

Of course, the number of driving paddles 251 corresponding to different reciprocating runways 22 on the rotating roller may be the same or different, and the setting positions may be sequentially staggered or aligned, that is, the reciprocating times and advancing sequences of the reciprocating runways 22 may be the same or different during one rotation of the rotating roller 25.

Thereafter, when the reciprocating runway 22 is again driven by the driving paddle 251 to move, the check valve 26 moves away from the check stopper 27.
