[0003] Patent document 1: JP3156510U Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to further simplify the structure of the traveling toy, it may be necessary to remove the chassis and install wheels on the vehicle body. However, if the bottom plate such as the chassis of the traveling toy is removed, foreign matter and the like are likely to enter the wheels. Therefore, it is considered to provide a component around the wheel for restricting the entry of foreign matter and the like, but in this case, the appearance design may be deteriorated.

[0005] An object of the present disclosure is to provide a running toy having an improved appearance design while removing a bottom plate and restricting access to wheels.

[0006] According to aspects of the present disclosure, a moving toy includes: an inner portion, which is arranged on the inner side of a wheel and includes a first side surface parallel to the wheel; an outer portion, which is arranged on the outer side of the inner portion and includes a second side surface facing the first side surface; a fender portion, which includes a fender surface facing the wheel and formed in an arc shape along the wheel, the fender portion connecting the inner portion with the outer portion; and a limiting portion, which is arranged between the first side surface and the second side surface and is constructed to limit entry into the fender surface.

[0007] According to the above aspect, it is possible to provide a running toy having an improved design while removing the bottom plate and restricting the intrusion into the wheels. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
