[0001] The utility model relates to the field of toys, in particular to a toy track which is convenient and reliable to splice. Background Art
[0002] Existing toy tracks typically feature a dovetail plate at one end and a dovetail groove at the other end. Adjacent toy track segments are connected by snapping the dovetail plate on one segment into the dovetail groove on the other. However, due to the relatively simple structure of this joint and the small area of connection at the joint, the toy track is prone to loosening or even disconnection during use, resulting in poor connection reliability. Furthermore, another type of toy track currently available on the market uses building blocks to connect the toy track segments. While this joint structure improves the reliability of the toy track, it requires a large number of components, making it inconvenient to connect. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a toy track that is easy to assemble and reliable in order to solve the above problems and shortcomings.
[0004] The technical solution of the present utility model is achieved as follows:
[0005] The toy track of the present invention is convenient and reliable to be spliced, and comprises at least two toy track sections, each of which is provided with a male buckle at one end and a female buckle at the other end. The two adjacent toy track sections are spliced together by the male buckle on one toy track section being matched with the female buckle on the other toy track section. The utility model is characterized in that the male buckle and the female buckle are respectively provided in a T-shaped structure and can be nested and connected with each other.
[0006] To further enhance the convenience and reliability of the splicing process of the present invention, the male buckle comprises a first splicing body positioned at the end of the toy track segment and protruding downward. This first splicing body is formed by a central U-shaped panel and two symmetrically arranged snap-on plates on either side of the U-shaped panel, forming a T-shaped structure. The inner side of the U-shaped panel is provided with a U-shaped socket groove for nesting and connecting with the U-shaped extension plate of the female buckle. Simultaneously, the female buckle comprises a second splicing body positioned at the end of the toy track segment and protruding outward. This second splicing body is formed by a central U-shaped extension plate and two symmetrically arranged outer plates on either side of the U-shaped extension plate, forming a T-shaped structure. Each of the two outer plates is provided with an L-shaped socket groove for nesting and connecting with the snap-on plate of the male buckle.
[0007] In order to facilitate alignment during splicing of the present invention and make the connection more reliable, the male buckle also includes a positioning column arranged on the bottom surface of the toy track segment and located on the inner side of the U-shaped sleeve groove, and the positioning column is matched with the positioning hole provided on the U-shaped protruding plate of the female buckle.
[0008] To ensure a more stable and reliable connection, the male buckle includes two curved protrusions symmetrically located on either side of the U-shaped enclosure, located at the end of the toy track segment. Each of these curved protrusions engages with a corresponding positioning groove on the female buckle. Furthermore, each curved protrusion has a step at its outer end, which engages with a corresponding notch at the outer end of the positioning groove.
[0009] In order to make the structure of the present invention diverse and to meet the splicing of different track shapes, the toy track segment is a single-pass or multi-pass structure, and in order to facilitate the splicing of the multi-pass structure track segment, the multi-pass structure toy track segment is provided with multiple male buckles or female buckles.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0011] The present invention utilizes a T-shaped male and female buckle, and the U-shaped sleeve groove of the male buckle is nested with the U-shaped extension plate of the female buckle, and the male buckle's sleeve plate is nested with the L-shaped sleeve groove of the female buckle, thereby effectively increasing the connection area at the joint, making the connection between two adjacent toy track sections stable and reliable, and substantially preventing loosening or disengagement during use. Furthermore, the male and female buckles can be connected together by pressing up and down, making splicing convenient and quick, effectively improving ease of use. Furthermore, no separate connecting parts are required to achieve splicing, effectively saving manufacturing costs. Furthermore, the stability and reliability of the toy track splicing can be further improved by the nested connection between the male buckle's locating post and the female buckle's locating hole, the male buckle's two arc-shaped protruding plates and the female buckle's two locating grooves, and the arc-shaped protruding plate's step and the notch of the locating groove.
