This purpose is achieved according to the invention by §

a fan track for one or more toy vehicles, i I on which the toy fan tools by means of a forced guidance; f-

and which is identified by »] |

that the track is designed to be flexible »through these ₅ |

flexible configuration of the driving ban gives SiCN aer §

considerable advantage that the Fanrbahn as a result of its; |

Flexibility easily to an existing rtodellandsciaft |

can be adjusted and according to the |

Routing can be relocated. For example, yy

due to the flexible design of the roadway now j

given the possibility of S-curves, superelevations of the |

Roadway, butt joint transitions of the roadway from the S

horizontal plane into an inclined plane etc. |

to manufacture.

Oa the fan according to the invention is designed to be flexible it can be stored on rollers in each handler. The customer then asks the dealer for a straight piece of a certain length, which he then lays in the desired shape and connects the two ends with one another. By The sale from the roll can be done for the handler so far

^ required ü.-fantreicae storage of straight lines

f "eleIstiCKen, curve shapes of various radii

j and derql. omitted. _{u. he} customer in turn has the

1 advantage of having the fan ban from a single piece

I can relocate in the used fora, with only one

I only coupling point is required. The customer is

I can't go along the predetermined pieces of track

I bound, the only one possible design option

I allow the routing of the road bans. Another

1 advantage is also that the previously common

^:) Stoss.tel1en to connect the individual track sections

'Λ will now be omitted, since the driving according to the invention

track of a single piece, which is bent accordingly and was created, can be assumed.

The flexible roadway preferably consists of rubber or elastic ierkstoffen. These materials allow a smooth adaptation of the roadway to the desired route, dzw. to the existing .-! odelllandsciaft. Outside ieich-PVC is of course a particularly suitable material for the production of roadways according to the invention shown, 'laughing at the determination of the desired alignment are the correspondingly shaped lanes on the Fixed underground. The attachment can for example by gluing, screwing or the like. take place.

It is particularly advantageous to attach the flexible, FaarDean suction cups to the underside. As a result, Han receives a loose reinforcement of the roadway on the ground with simple smocks and can then, after loosening the saucepan, further advance a new route. Another zwecknässige embodiment for fastening the roadway particular Onea text lien sub round consists of a auif the underside of the Fanrbahn attached Velcro "whose plurality of rie" .cnen fixation d & r roadway is obtained. In order to neutralize the ranrbahra, it can then be easily detached from the ground.

To fasten the Fanrbann on the ground, "especially on smooth surfaces admits another favorable Lösungssoglic ikeit is the road on its lower ait a pressure-sensitive adhesive to provide. This self <leaerkann be one which aer iäreie for its activation," or humidity, If the pavement according to the invention is sold from the roll and there is a self-adhesive paper on the underside of the pavement, it is advisable to place adhesive paper between the doorway and the driving plane of the immediately adjacent industrial building.

Especially for rubber lanes - or rubber * - elastic material, it is useful to provide this with stiffening means. Biess stiffening agents have the purpose of ensuring that after the desired 'deformation of the roadway, this deformation persists without being caused by the elastic

ity of the flexible roadway it returns to its original state. As particularly suitable has turned out to be a stiffening means of a wire mesh that is completely inserted into the embedded flexible roadway, or can only be introduced into one of the surfaces of the roadway. As a stiffening agent, see also parallel Wires embedded in the longitudinal axis of the flexible roadway are shown as being well suited.

For the production of flexible roadways that should have relatively sharp curves, has proven to be advantageous, the flexible roadway in the longitudinal direction of the roadway in partial lanes to subdivide. This * subdivision holds the considerable The advantage is that deformations of the flexible partial webs are a result of the subdivision into several partial webs on one j remain limited, since the individual

j partial lanes in the longitudinal direction of the lane relative

are movable relative to each other to a small extent. I.

The connection of the individual partial webs to one another is expediently made with grooves and joints that are designed to fit into one another. Of course, the individual partial tracks can also be replaced by additional Einl <± g-n and Auflasen "connected to each other will. These deposits can be used within the individual. Be arranged partial tracks.

Of course, they can also be subject to conditions
be connected to each other, for example by
Clamps, which encompass the underside of the flexible track and press the partial tracks together.

Other types of connection of the individual partial lines

consist of one lane for several lanes

nr the road 1 can be removed from the Selbstklebeschi oht 4 and the road 1 then applied to the base and attached to this. The road 11 according to Fig. 2 consists of soft polyvinyl chloride and is intended for toy vehicles with electric drive. On both sides of the guide groove 12 there are two busbars 13, which are surrounded by the flexible soft t-VC at their feet. In addition to their effect as a tole, the busbars 13 also serve as a base and as a ... rager for the wheels of the toy vehicle. In order to fasten the roadway 11 to a base, additional means, such as a Velcro fastener, can be arranged on the underside of the flexible roadway.

Another fastening means for the flexible roadway on a smooth surface is shown in FIG. 3 shown. The track 21 with the rails 22 has concave depressions 23 on the underside in circular training. If these depressions are pressed onto a smooth surface, so ■ These depressions 23 act like a suction cup. This results in a good attachment to the base.

The lanes shown in Figures 1-3 have only one lane. Of course, the carriageways can also have multiple lanes be provided.

Roadways with multiple lanes are shown in Fig. 4-6, the roadway consisting of several partial lanes with one lane each.
