The child 12 is rotated so as to push open, and the return branch groove-shaped guide path 9 is opened.

  By rotating the return path switch 12 that opens the return branch groove guide path 9, one side surface 12b1 of the linkage arm portion 12c is connected to the inner side surface 13c of the other end portion of the linkage rod 13, and the linkage rod 13a is used as the center. 13 is rotated, the inner surface 13b at the opposite end is brought into contact with the interlocking link surface 11c1 of the link arm 11c of the forward switch 11, and the forward switch 11 is rotated to the state shown in FIG. The forward switch 11 of the forward branching section 5 of the traveling vehicle automatic switching traveling road base 1 is closed, the forward branching groove-shaped guide path 6 is closed, and the groove-shaped semicircular guide path 3 is opened.

  Therefore, the traveling vehicle 39 travels on the half-turn traveling road base 31 of the right connection surface 1a and returns to the traveling vehicle traveling path automatic switching traveling base 1, and the traveling vehicle 39 is guided to the groove-shaped half-turn guide path 3 and travels. In the driving claw wheel 23, the driven thick claw portion 29 having the driving thin claw portion 30 extending at the tip thereof is stopped at the position shown in FIG. The driven thin claw portion 30 of the driving claw wheel 23 is pushed inward from the groove-shaped half-circumferential guide path 3 by the guide wheel 40, that is, the driven thick claw portion 29 arranged next by rotating the driving claw wheel 23 is groove-shaped. It is rotated so as to be placed on the half-circumferential guide path 3.

  Then, the traveling vehicle 39 travels on the semicircular traveling roadbed 31 of the right connection surface 1 a and returns to the traveling vehicle automatic switching traveling ground 1, and the thick driven blade portion of the driving pawl wheel 23 located on the groove-shaped semicircular guiding path 3. 29 is pushed inward from the groove-shaped semicircular guide path 3 by the guide wheel 40 and passes. At this time, since the driven-thickness claw portions 29 are also arranged in the rear row of the drive claw wheel 23, they are not connected to the linkage arm portion 11c of the forward path switch 11 and the linkage arm portion 12c of the return path switch 12. Since there is no rotation, the traveling vehicle 39 travels around the traveling vehicle traveling path automatic switching traveling platform 1 and the half-circulating traveling platform 31. When the driven thin claw part 30 is linked to the forward path switch 11 by the movement of the driven thick claw part 29 of the drive claw wheel 23, the forward path switch 11 operates to switch the branch as described above, and the traveling vehicle 39 To the forward branch runway 7.

  Since the return path switch 12 is configured symmetrically with the forward path switch 11 as described above, it changes to the forward path switch depending on the traveling direction of the traveling vehicle 39, and at that time, the forward path switch 11 operates in place of the return path switch. To do.

  In the embodiment shown in FIG. 10, a semicircular traveling road base 31 is connected to the right side surface of the traveling vehicle automatic path switching base 1 to form a circular traveling path, and an upright hole 42 is provided at the center of the circular traveling path. The lower end is inserted into 42 and a support column 43 is erected, and a rotary cylinder 45 is rotatably supported on the upper end shaft portion 44, and a rotary shaft 47 having a ball 46 rotatably supported at the tip thereof is supported on the rotary cylinder 45. The base end is integrally connected, and the ball 46 is configured to be freely rotatable on the circuit runway by the pushing movement of the animal-shaped traveling vehicle 48 so that the ball 46 can be rotated in addition to the direction of the other direction movement and the return movement. It is intended to develop into a play animal toy that further enhances the taste.

Since the traveling vehicle automatic switching path plate of the present invention switches the traveling direction by the moving power of the traveling vehicle, automatic switching is achieved with a simple mechanism without providing a dedicated power source, and the traveling vehicle toy Will contribute to the expansion of the market.
In addition, the toys provided can be diversified by changing the appearance of the traveling vehicle in various ways.
