Next, how to use it will be explained.

Close the switch 51 of the operation section 50 and close the horse racing game toy 1.
make the electrical circuit of the device ready for operation.

A traveling body 60 is placed in each compartment 9 of the gate 7, and the rotating disk 25 is moved approximately directly below the gate 7. When the start button 52 is pressed in this state, the gate 7 opens and the first and second motors (not shown) are driven. The rotation of the first and second motors is transmitted to the small drive gear 14.15, which rotates the guide walls 13a of the large right pulley 12 and the large left pulley 13. This rotation of the large right pulley 12 also causes the flat belt 16 to rotate. Further, the drive small pulley 22 fixed to the left large pulley 13 also rotates, and the gear belt 23 wound around this and the driven small pulley 21 also rotates. The rotating shaft 26 of the rotating disk 25 is inserted into the hole 17a of the locking projection 17 of the flat belt 16, and the support shaft 41 of the moving plate 40 is inserted into the hole 18a of the locking projection 18 of the flat belt 16. As the flat belt 16 moves, the rotating disk 25 and the moving plate 40 also move. Furthermore, since the gear portion 27 of the rotating circle 1125 meshes with the gear belt 23, if the moving speeds of the flat belt 16 and the gear belt 23 are different, the rotating circle 1125 will be forced to rotate, and if the moving speeds of the flat belt 16 and gear belt 23 are the same, it will not rotate and will move. Become. The traveling body 60 moves on the traveling plate 4 as the rotating disk 25 moves because its magnet piece 62 is attracted by the magnet piece 30 of the small disk 29 in the rotating disk 25 or the magnet piece 32 of the swinging piece 31. do.

More specifically, the movement of the traveling body A-H will be explained based on FIG. 6. The rotating disk 25 is equipped with the 12 small disks a-1, and the magnet pieces 34 of the small disks a-1 are attracted to the magnet pieces 62 of the traveling bodies A-H on the lid 34 of the rotary disk 25. Guide protrusions (1) to (4) of various shapes are formed to guide the magnet piece 34 of the small disk a-1 only when the small disk a-1 is rotated. Further, the rotating disc 25 is provided with the swinging pieces x-z swingably.

When the speed adjustment knobs 53 and 54 are adjusted to make the rotation speed of the second motor slower than the rotation speed of the second motor, and the start button 52 is pressed, the gate 7 opens and the flat belt 16 and The gear belt 23 will move at different speeds, and the rotating disk 25 will move while rotating clockwise (in the direction of the arrow). At this time, the running bodies A, C, and H are attached to the swinging pieces x, y, and z of the running bodies B, D,
.

E, F, and G are attracted by the small disks a, j, ct, g, and k, and move along the flat belt 16 while changing their travel courses. Next, at the first curve, the traveling body A moves to the traveling plate 4.
Due to the contact resistance, the swinging piece X rotates slower than the fulcrum and comes into contact with the adjacent traveling body. The traveling body C comes into contact with the periphery of the inner guide plate 6 during rotation, comes off the swinging piece y, and is attracted to the magnet piece 44 of the movable plate 40 following the rotating disk 25. The traveling body B also comes into contact with the inner guide plate 6 and comes off the small disk a, but is drawn to the following small disk and continues to rotate. In place of this, the traveling bodies G, F, and E, which were at the rear, move forward. or,
The traveling body H at the rear end is also moved from the outside toward the front by the swinging piece 2. Furthermore, on the straight course, the traveling body A comes into contact with the peripheral edge of the inner guide plate 6, comes off the swinging piece X, and is attracted to the magnetic rubber band 45 of the movable plate 40.

Since the magnet piece 30 of the small disc that attracts the traveling body B is in contact with the guide protrusion 35 formed on the lid 34 of the rotating disc 25, the relative position of the traveling body B with respect to the rotating disc 25 is stable. The traveling body also comes into contact with the periphery of the inner guide plate 6, but the small disk j also moves due to the movement on the rotating disk 25 caused by the contact of the traveling body (the magnet piece 30 of the small disk j is (because it does not come into contact with the protrusion 35), it does not come off the small disk j. The traveling bodies E, F, and G do not come into contact with the inner guide plate 6 and the outer guide plate 5, but are guided by a small circular plate d.
, g+k, the distance between them is always kept constant due to the contact between the sides, and since they never come into contact with each other, they move stably while changing their running course. The traveling body H moves from the outside to the leading edge.

Near the final goal, running body E, who had moved without any trouble,
F and G enter in order. The running body H comes into contact with the inner guide plate 6 and comes off, but it comes into contact with the running body and moves the running body, and is drawn to the small circular plate J that was guiding the running body. The traveling body is attracted to the magnetic rubber band 45 of the moving plate 40. The traveling body B comes into contact with the outer guide plate 5, but because the movement of the small disc that guides it is restricted by the guide protrusion ■, it cannot move together with the traveling body B. , it comes off from the small disk and is attracted to the following swinging piece X.

In this way, the horse racing game toy 1 according to the present embodiment cannot predict the ranking of the running objects 60 at all, and can be made into a game toy that is unprecedentedly interesting.

In this embodiment, the speed adjustment knobs 53 and 54 were adjusted to make the speed of the gear belt 23 slower than the flat belt 16, and the rotating direction of the rotating disc 25 was made clockwise as shown by the arrow. It is also possible to rotate the rotating disk 25 at a speed higher than that of the flat belt 16 (and the direction of rotation of the rotating disc 25 can be made counterclockwise).Also, the horse racing game toy 1 is provided with a control means, and the control means randomly or regularly rotates the flat belt 16 and The speed of the gear belt 23 can be changed. In this way, it is possible to move the rotary disk 25 without rotating it at all, and then suddenly rotate it at a predetermined position.

Since the rotating disk 25 is always engaged with the gear belt 23 in this way, it can be easily rotated at any position.

Although not specifically explained in this embodiment, the traveling body 60
The small disk 29 that is not drawn to the guide protrusion 35
Since they are not regulated by the above, they move freely within the rotating disk 25 and collide with each other, which may affect the movement of the traveling body 60.

Furthermore, although the small disks 29 are formed in the same shape, it goes without saying that they may be formed in different shapes.

Further, in this embodiment, three swing pieces 31 having a certain length are provided as swing pieces on the rotating disk 25 so as to be able to swing freely, but the present invention is not limited to this. It can be changed, and a circular rotating plate is rotatably provided on the rotating disk 25,
Of course, a third magnet may be attached to this rotary plate, and the length, attachment position, and number of each swinging piece 31 may be changed.

Further, in this embodiment, the flat belt 16 is used as the moving means, but the present invention is not limited to this, and it goes without saying that the rotating disc 25 may be rotatably mounted on a circular rotating plate.

Although the traveling body 60 having a horse-shaped rocking body 64 that can swing freely is used as the traveling body, it is of course possible to use a car-like traveling body 70 with a magnet piece 72 embedded therein. It is.

[Effects of the Invention] The present invention has the effect that it is possible to provide an interesting competitive game in which no one knows how the running course of the moving objects will change and the ranking of the moving objects is completely unpredictable. have
