Abstract

Model railway, which contains a vehicle with driven wheels and a pick-up pin (21), which vehicle travels on a track surface (1), a pick-up attachment (9) being present on the track surface, which attachment (9) can be raised and lowered by means of an operating knob (4), in such a way that the vehicle is retained or moves past depending on the position of the pick-up attachment, the rear wheels of the vehicle driving a gearwheel (11) when the vehicle is retained, which gearwheel (11) in its turn drives, by means of a shaft, model objects which can be connected and disconnected. <IMAGE>

Description

TOY RAILWAY

The invention relates to a toy train.

Toy trains often become available for the playing child after a short time boring. The possibilities of operation are mostly limited and allow no change.

The inventor set himself the task of creating a toy train create, in which a function tap piece is provided that a control lever owns, via which a safety gear is put in and out of operation, whereby the vehicle is stopped while the rear wheels are moving of the vehicle drive a shaft via friction wheel (s) or gearwheel (s), which is provided with a coupling member and that one or more toy objects mountable and dismountable connected to the functional piece, for example infected, can be so that the vehicle (the) game object (s) drives and that the toy vehicle has an easily accessible polarity switch Has stopping point, sä that the game object is operated in two directions of rotation can be.

In the present case, the vehicle is provided with a drive. It can have its own energy sources, for example an electric motor with a battery or spring motor.

However, it is also possible to use an electric motor with a power supply to use from the track section.

A functional track piece is now used that has an operating lever is provided, which stops the vehicle with a safety device. The drive energy of the vehicle is then used to drive a shaft located on the vehicle. the via friction wheel (s) protrudes over the surface of the roadway to drive. The rotational energy is fed to an object in the game via a coupling.

This Spielge stand has in the exemplary embodiment socket pins, which can be inserted into corresponding openings in the functional track section. When plugging together The toy and the functional track piece are also connected via coupling links. The vehicle can cover its way on the track, can be stopped, to be started again; the game objects can be driven in two directions of rotation the in-game items can be exchanged.

In the exemplary embodiment, the objects in the game are a carousel. a children's playground, a gas station, a clock.

It can be seen that the aforementioned Spielge conditions can still be expanded are, so that the present toy train a large number of play possibilities owns.

The vehicle and the in-game items will still come with appropriate Receiving parts, such as seats for toy figures.

This further expands the playing possibilities.

The illustrations show an example of an embodiment. Fig. 1 shows the functional track piece and a vehicle.

Fig. 2 shows the functional track piece connected to a game object.

Fig. 3 shows the vehicle toy.

The functional track piece has the track surface 1, which in the exemplary embodiment is formed with side edges 2.

The connection of the road surface 1 with others. Pieces of track is not shown.

The functional track section becomes a function from the track surface 1 steep 3 continued. On the top of the same there is a control button 4, which is shuffled back and forth. It's on the one on the bottom Slide 5 screwed on. The slide 5 has an inclined plane 6, which is on the Swivel lever 7 acts. The pivot lever 7 is rotatably mounted in the bearing 8, wherein a spring, not shown, ensures that the catch 9 upwards, that is is pushed out of the road surface. The slide 5 therefore ensures that the catch approach 9 can emerge above when it is in an end position. In the other end position the catch 9 is lowered.

The function track piece also has an axis 10, the cin friction wheel or a gear 11 has. The axis 10 is rotatable below the road surface stored while the gear 11 protrudes above the road surface. On the Axis 10 is still the coupling member 12. The functional track piece has nor shaft openings 13. The vehicle 20 is equipped with a catch pin, which when driving on the functional track section and extended catch 9 engages in this. It engages when the swivel lever 7 is compressed. The rear wheels 22 of the vehicle 20 are provided on the inside with a gear, which when held over the catch 9 on the 7; gear 11 comes to a standstill and drives it.

The game items in question are detailed in the patent application described. What they have in common is the presence of the plug-in pins in the shaft opening 13 of the functional track section can be found. Furthermore own the game items a coupling element corresponding to the coupling element 12. so that the drive energy is forwarded from the vehicle 20 to the game items.

Fig. 3 shows the vehicle 20. It has an electric motor and battery box as well as a catch pin 21 which is matched with respect to the catch attachment 9. When the catch extension 9 is extended, the catch pin 21 engages in the same, so that the vehicle 20 is forced to stop. The driven axle of the vehicle, in the exemplary embodiment, the rear axle, now takes care of gears 23, which are on the rear wheels 22 are located for driving the gear 11.

The polarity reversal switch 24 can also be actuated from below in the exemplary embodiment become what was not shown further.

However, it is also coupled to a lever 25, through the handle 26 is actuated. The handle 26 is in an easily accessible location on the vehicle appropriate.

Claims (1)

PROTECTION CLAIM 1. Toy train consisting of a vehicle, a Track piece and game to be driven against stands - d adu rch marked that a functional track piece is provided which has an operating lever via which a safety gear is set in and out of operation, whereby the vehicle in running state is stopped that the running rear wheels of the vehicle over Friction wheel (wheels) or gear wheel (wheels) drive a shaft with a coupling member is provided and that one or more toy objects can be assembled and disassembled can be connected to the functional piece, for example plugged in, so that the vehicle drives the Spielge (game objects) and that the toy vehicle has an easily accessible polarity reversal switch with a stop point, so that the game can be operated in two directions of rotation.
