Definitions
- the present invention relates to a track part for a track-guided toy car track, which has at least one end face fastening means for another track part, wherein the fastening means comprises at least a first pocket and at least one matching pin in the pocket, which symmetrical to each other with respect to a center of the end face are arranged so that when mating of two track parts in each case a pin engages in a first pocket, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention further relates to a fastener for an aforementioned web part according to claim.
- brackets are to be attached to the bottom of the already assembled toy car racing tracks or to remove.
- the user is therefore dependent solely on his sense of touch, so that the assembly and disassembly of toy car racing requires a certain amount of practice.
- the invention is based on the object, a web part and a fastener of o.g. To improve the type such that the construction and dismantling of the toy car racing tracks from multiple track parts can be done even easier and faster.
- the fastening device additionally comprises at least one pair of second pockets, which are arranged symmetrically to the center of the front side, so that when mating of two track parts meet two second pockets each other, wherein the respective second pocket has a latching mechanism, so that two web parts can be secured against unintentional loosening by means of a fastening element with a corresponding latching mechanism, which can be inserted in each one of two second pockets which meet one another.
- the second pocket is open on both sides in the axial direction.
- the track part For laterally fasten together of two track parts, for example, to build a four- or multi-lane toy car raceway from the railway parts or for growing edge strips on a track part with grooves to widen the toy car raceway, the track part additionally on at least one longitudinal side a pair of second pockets, which are symmetrical are arranged to a center of the longitudinal side.
- the track part is, for example, a track piece with at least one groove, in particular two grooves, for tracking each of a toy vehicle, each groove being associated with electrical conductors for supplying power to the respective toy vehicle.
- the track part is, for example, also an edge strip for widening the road of the toy car racing track.
- the fastening element has a first plug-in part for connection to a first web part and a second plug-in part for connection to a plugged onto the first component having second web part, wherein the two plug-in parts of the fastening element are each formed and arranged to each other, that each male part of a fastener is inserted into one of two juxtaposed second pockets, wherein each male part of the fastener has a latching mechanism which releasably latched with the respective second pocket such that a pulling out of the fastener prevented in the axial direction out of the second pocket.
- each male part of the fastening element comprises a resiliently deflectable latching tongue with a pointing in the direction of the other male part stop edge, wherein the latching tongue is formed longer than an axial Length of the second pocket and a distance between the stop edges of the locking tongues of both male parts of a fastener is equal to or greater than twice the axial length of a second pocket.
- the latching tongue can be felt by a person without visual contact and solved by simply pressing down, for this purpose an operation with a finger of one hand is sufficient, so that there is a particularly simple and quick solvability of the locking mechanism with high security against accidental loosening.
- a web part 10 comprises a roadway forming top 12, a bottom 14, longitudinal sides 16 and end faces 18.
- the end faces 18 are used for plugging together two identical web parts 10 and each have a fastening device, the three pairs 19 from Pin 20 and first pocket 22 includes.
- the pin 20 and the first pocket 22 of each pair 19 are arranged symmetrically to a center 24 of the end face 18. This ensures that when mating two identical track parts always a pin 20 meets a first pocket 22, as from Fig. 6 and 7 seen.
- the pins 20 are designed such that they fit into the first pockets 22, so that push the pins 20 into the first pockets 22 during mating of two track parts 10.
- a pair 28 of second pockets 30 is additionally provided on the end face 18, the second pockets 30 of a pair 28 being arranged symmetrically with respect to the center 24 of the end face 18. This ensures that when mating of two web parts 10 two second pockets 30 meet each other, as seen from Fig. 6 and 7 seen.
- the pair 28 of second pockets 30 is arranged on the end face 18 as the outermost pair, so that the second pockets 30 are located at the corner of the end face 18 and the longitudinal side 16.
- the second pockets 30 are open at an end facing away from the end face 18 31.
- a length of the second pockets 30 is designated.
- a fastening element 32 is furthermore provided, with a preferred embodiment of a fastening element 32 according to the invention being made Fig. 3 to 5 seen.
- This fastening element 32 comprises two plug-in parts 34, which are each designed to fit into a second pocket 30.
- the plug-in parts 34 form with their respective longitudinal axes in alignment with each other set the fastener 32.
- Each plug-in part 34 comprises a resiliently deflectable latching tongue 36 with stop edge 38.
- the stop edges 38 are each aligned in the direction of the other plug-in part 36. In other words, the stop edges 38 of the locking tongues 36 of the plug-in parts 34 of a fastening element 32 facing each other.
- Each latching tongue 36 and each plug-in part 34 is designed to be longer than an axial length of the second pockets 30. In this way, a plug-in part 26 fully penetrates a second pocket 30 and additionally projects beyond the open end 31 of the second pocket 30 facing away from the end face 18.
- the locking tongues 36 are designed such that they are deflected during insertion of the male part 34 in a second pocket 30 against an elastic spring force. Once the male part 34 is inserted so far into the second pocket 30 that the stop edge 38 reaches the open end 31, the elastic spring force pushes the latching tongue 36 back in the direction of rest position and the stop edge 38 engages the open end 31 of the second pocket 30 a.
- the distance 40 of two facing abutment edges 38 of a fastener 32 is equal to or greater than twice the length 42 of a second pocket 30. In this way engage both abutment edges 38 of a fastener 32 at the open ends 31 of the second pockets 30, the when mating of two track parts 10 meet, as from Fig. 7 seen. By means of this engagement of the abutment edges 38 and the open ends 31 on each other meeting second pockets 30 holds each fastener 32, the assembled track parts 10 together.
- the latched locking tongues 36 on the underside 14 of the track parts 10 are freely accessible. To re-separate the web parts 10, it is therefore possible in a simple manner. the locking tongues with a finger of a hand in the direction of the top 12 of the web part 10 against the resilient To push force, thereby releasing the Engriff between stop edge 38 and open end 31.
- the fastener 32 may be slightly displaced such that the detent tab 36 engages the inside of the second pocket 30 and does not spring back into engagement with the open end 31. As a result, the operator's hand activating the detent mechanism becomes free again and the operator can pull the webbing parts 10 apart.
- a pair 28 second pockets 30 is also formed on each longitudinal side 16 of the web portion 10, in which the fastener 32 can engage in a corresponding manner.
- the second pockets 30 of the pair 28 are also arranged symmetrically to a center 44 of the longitudinal side 16.
- the invention is illustrated by way of example only with reference to a straight track part with two grooves as a tracking guide.
- the second pockets 30 can also be arranged on track parts 10 in the form of curve parts, edge strips for roadway broadening or looping parts.
