Definitions

  • the lane of a toy car racing track usually consists of one Variety of straight and curved road sections, which in different composition for training different Routes are composable.
  • a Guide horn to be provided in a along the entire length of the lane running recess engages and provides lateral guidance. The This means that vehicles are guided.
  • racetracks In addition to track-bound toy car racetracks, there are also racetracks known in which the driving toys by an external control signal Can change lanes. Such driving toys can too be guided, for example by placing a guide horn in a recess of the The roadway intervenes, but if there is a signal to change lanes, it leaves the Depression is lifted out, so that by a steering lock of the Vehicle can change lanes. After changing lanes the guide horn enters a guide recess again. Such a system is known for example from DE-PS 29 49 046. The constructive Training a liftable guide horn is, however, relatively sensitive and often unable to cope with normal gaming.
  • the leadership of the driving toys takes place in that these slide their respective lanes along a guide edge by their Steering is set so that it is always slightly towards the guide edge to be driven.
  • the vehicles can go through Change steering lock to the other guide edge.
  • the Driving toys have side engagement holder, which in a curve sections parallel to the inner guide edge and at a short distance from it Grip over the running holding rail.
  • the Guide rail preferably over the normal to the road level be exposed at an acute angle to the inside. This creates the holding effect the guide rail even with strong lateral acceleration forces further increased.
  • the toy car racing track according to the invention is mechanically simple built up and insensitive in the running game. Nevertheless, in the Road sections that do not contain a guide rail, which is usually the straight sections of the lane are easy to change lanes.
  • the road section shown in Fig. 1 is a 90 ° curve, which in Course of the lane of a toy car racing track according to the invention can be used.
  • the road section 3 contains an outer lane 1 and one inner lane 2.
  • Each lane has a guide depression 12 or 21, can be used in the guide horns of such driving toys that neither are suitable for changing lanes, still have self-steering.
  • the guide recesses 12, 21 are in each case parallel busbars arranged, the busbars 13, 14 and 15, 16 in the lane 1 and 17, 18 and 19, 20 in lane 2 the conductor rails required in pairs form.
  • a vehicle 4 When a vehicle 4 is on the inner lane 2 and in the Area of a curve section, it is from breaking out of the inner track prevented by the guide rail 7, which is approximately parallel to the track in the middle of the road section as an upright band-shaped rail is trained.
  • the slide buffers 10, 11 and 8, 9 attached to the vehicle prevent the vehicle itself along the guide rail 7 slides.
  • the sliding buffers are located in the front and rear area of the Vehicle. It can also be provided that only in the front area appropriate sliding buffers are provided.
  • the distance 25 between the inner guide edge 6 and the Guide rail 7 chosen so that only a slight offset can occur.
  • the distance 25 is in the curve area of a track between the inner Guide edge 6 and guide rail 7 smaller than the distance 24 between Guide rail 7 and outer guide edge 5.
  • FIG. 2 shows a cross-sectional view of a road section. It is clearly shown that the vehicle 4 between the inner Guide edge 6 and the guide rail 7 is located, a sliding buffer 11th slides along the guide rail 7.
  • Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a curve section is shown, the can be used for a steep curve.
  • the guide rail 7 is around articulated an angle 22 with respect to the normal to the guide rail to ensure an improved hold of the vehicle.
  • FIG. 4 shows a side view of a guide rail with broken inner guide edge 6.
  • Two road sections 26, 27 are connected to each other via a connecting member 28.
  • a drive-up area 23 trained, starting from the surface of the road in a pointed Angle to the upper edge of the guide rail 7 extends.
