(d) The front wheel holding member holds the front wheel at the front end, and the rear part thereof is stored in the base body with a spring biased so as to be able to protrude forward, and the rear wheel holding member holds the front wheel with respect to the rear wheel holding member. It is provided so that it can be engaged in a detachable manner when the member rotates and can be engaged with the inclined surface of the inner protruding wall of the vehicle body side member when it is projected forward.

(e) The bonnet member shall be pivotably supported upwardly with respect to the front wheel holding member.

(Operations and Effects of the Invention) According to the present invention, first, when the hook of the rear wheel holding member is disengaged from the lower surface of the base while in the state of a traveling toy, the rear wheel holding member and the base become unlatched. The spring force of the torsion spring that was acting between them is released, and the rear wheel holding member opens and tries to rotate relative to the base, but since the rear wheels are in contact with the running surface, the base is standing up. It can be raised. Then, when the hook is disengaged and the base body and the rear wheel holding member open and rotate at an obtuse angle, the engagement between the rear wheel holding member and the front wheel holding member is released, and the front wheel The holding member projects forward. In this way, when the rear wheel holding member opens and raises the base when it rotates, the front wheel holding member protrudes forward of the rising base, so the front wheel holding member holds the rear wheel at an obtuse angle with the base. Since it forms an inverted V shape together with the holding member, the base body is supported above it, and the front and rear wheels are held at the ends of the front and rear wheel holding members, respectively, so that they are grounded. Further, when the front wheel holding member projects forward, it engages with the inclined rear surface of the protruding wall of the vehicle body side member, so that the vehicle body side member rotates outward, so that it protrudes to both sides of the base body. Further, since the rear cover material of the base remains due to inertia when the base is raised, it rotates to the rear of the base, and at this time, the robot head is exposed on the raised base. Further, when the base body rises, the front wheel holding member protruding forward thereof also rises, so that the bonnet member rotates relatively and maintains its previous state.

As mentioned above, when the base body is in a car-like configuration, the hooks of the rear wheel holding member are disengaged, and the base body instantly stands up, and the front and rear wheel holding members form an inverted V shape below it. A bonnet member is disposed at the lower end of the front wheel holding member while maintaining its original state, and furthermore, a robot head protrudes from the upper part of the base body, and vehicle body side members protrude from both sides. Therefore, the base body constitutes the body with the robot head, the body side members constitute the arms, the front and rear wheel holding members constitute the legs, and the bonnet member constitutes the feet, allowing the robot to transform as a whole into the form of a robot. . Moreover,
Since the front and rear wheels touch the ground at the lower ends of the front and rear wheel holding members that serve as the legs, it is possible to run the vehicle even after the configuration has changed.

Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to select a shape-changing traveling toy that is full of surprises.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, the symbol A indicates a shape-changing traveling toy. This form-changing traveling toy A changes from the passenger car form shown in FIG. 1 to the robot form shown in FIG. In contrast, the following rear wheel holding member 3, vehicle body side member 4,
It is formed by connecting a base rear cover material 5, a front wheel holding member 6, and a bonnet member 7.

The rear wheel holding member 3 holds a rear wheel 10 at its rear end, is pivotally supported by a shaft 11 at the front of the lower surface of the base 1, and opens and rotates at an obtuse angle with respect to the base 1. It is spring biased by a torsion spring 12. Further, a mainspring unit box 18 is installed at the rear end of the rear wheel holding member 3 and includes a mainspring, an axle for the rear wheel 10, and a gear mechanism for transmitting the output of the mainspring to the rear wheel 10. Furthermore, an engaging protrusion 13 and a hook 14 are provided on the surface of the base body 1 that faces the bottom surface when folded. The engaging protrusion 13 is provided so as to protrude into an opening 15 formed on the lower surface of the base 1 when folded, and the hook 14 is provided so as to be removable in a locking groove 16 formed on the lower surface of the base 1. That is, the hook 14 is pivotably supported opposite to a rotating piece 17 provided on the output shaft of the mainspring in the mainspring unit box 18, and is always supported by a spring 19 in the direction of locking into the locking groove 16 of the base body 1. energized. Further, an engaging projection 14a is formed protruding from the base of the hook 14 on the side opposite to the spring 19, and when the hook 14 is locked in the locking groove 16, the rotating piece 17 is placed on the engaging projection 14a. It is formed to be placed. As a result, the hook 14 is normally locked in the locking groove 16 of the base body 1, but when the mainspring is released and the rotating piece 17 rotates once, and when it hits and presses the engaging protrusion 13 of the hook 14, It is pushed back against the force of the spring 19, and the locking with the locking groove 16 is released. When the hook 14 is disengaged from the locking groove 16, the rear wheel holding member 3 opens and rotates relative to the base body 1 by the force of the torsion spring 12.

The vehicle body side member 4 is provided inside a notch 20 formed approximately at the center of the vehicle body side surface, and is rotatably supported by a support shaft 23 on bearings 22 protruding from both sides of the base body 1. , on its outer surface there is a substrate 1
The shape of a car is continuous to both side windows, and a protruding wall 4a with an inclined rear surface 24 is formed on the inner surface.

The base rear cover material 5 has the shape of a rear window and a trunk room, and the front wheel holding member 6 has a front wheel 25 at the front end of a rectangular plate-like member 26 that has a through hole 29 extending longitudinally through the center. A bearing part 27 is formed for bearing the plate member 2.

Further, when the engagement convex portion 13 of the rear wheel holding member 3 enters the opening 15 on the lower surface of the base body 1, it protrudes into the plate-shaped member storage portion 28 on the back side thereof, and holds the front wheel stored in the storage portion 28. It engages with the end of the through hole 29 of the member 6. Due to this engagement, the plate member 26 of the front wheel holding member 6 is held in the storage portion 28 against the spring force. Furthermore, leg pieces 30 protrude outward from the housing portion 28 of the base body 1 at the rear ends of both sides of the plate member 26, and a convex portion 31 protruding outward is formed at the end of the leg piece 30. The convex portion 31 is formed so as to engage with the protruding wall 4a on the inner surface of the vehicle body side member 4 when protruding forward.

Since the form-changing traveling toy A is constructed as described above, when the spring in the spring unit box 18 is wound up by pulling back and the spring is released by releasing the hand, the traveling toy A starts running. During the travel, when the hook 14 is pushed back by the rotating piece 17 connected to the mainspring and the rear wheel holding member 3 is disengaged from the opening 16 on the lower surface of the base 1, the rear wheel holding member 3 and the base are separated. 1 is released, and the rear wheel holding member 3 attempts to open and rotate relative to the base 1, but since the rear wheel 10 is in contact with the running surface, On the contrary, the base body 1 is raised up. Then, when the hook 14 is disengaged and the base body 1 and the rear wheel holding member 3 open and rotate to form an obtuse angle, the engagement between the rear wheel holding member 3 and the front wheel holding member 6 is interrupted. It comes off, and the front wheel holding member 6 protrudes forward. In this way, when the rear wheel holding member 3 opens and rotates, the base body 1 is raised up, and at the same time, the front wheel holding member 6 protrudes in front of the raised base body 1. Since it forms an inverted V shape with the rear wheel holding member 3 forming an obtuse angle, the base body 1 is supported above it, and the front and rear wheels 10 and 25 are held at the ends of the front and rear wheel holding member 3, respectively, so that they are grounded. . Further, when the front wheel holding member 6 protrudes forward, it engages with the inclined rear surface of the projecting wall 4a of the vehicle body side member 4, so that the vehicle body side member 4 rotates outward, so that it can be attached to both sides of the base body 1. stand out. Furthermore, the base rear cover material 5 is
When the robot stands up, it remains due to inertia, so it rotates to the rear of the base 1, and the robot head 2 is exposed on the base 1 that has risen at this time. Further, when the base body 1 rises, the front wheel holding member 6 that projects forward thereof also rises, so that the bonnet member 7 rotates relatively and maintains its previous state.

As mentioned above, when the base body 1 is in a car-like form, the hook 14 of the rear wheel holding member 3 is disengaged, and the base body 1 instantly stands up, and the front and rear wheel holding members are placed below it. 3 forms an inverted V shape,
A bonnet member 7 is disposed at the lower end of the front wheel holding member 6 while maintaining its initial state, and furthermore, a robot head 2 is protruded from the upper part of the base body 1, and vehicle body side members 4 are protruded from both sides. Therefore, the base body 1 constitutes the body section with the robot head 2, the body side members 4 constitute the arms, the front and rear wheel holding members 3 constitute the legs, and the bonnet member 7 constitutes the feet, forming the robot as a whole. Can change. Moreover, since the front and rear wheels 10 are in contact with the lower ends of the front and rear wheel holding members 3 and 6, which serve as the legs, the vehicle can run even after the configuration has changed.

Therefore, with the shape-changing traveling toy A described above, the user can enjoy unexpected traveling.
