体も直線又はカーブ走行させることができる。In the above-mentioned conventional connecting device, since the toys are always rotatably connected to each other, the connected toys can be bent. If the toy concrete is a traveling body, the leading traveling body of the plurality of coupled traveling bodies is gripped, and if the traveling body is pulled straight or curved so as to pull, the following traveling body follows the traveling locus of the leading traveling body. The running body can also be run straight or curved.

た。However, since each traveling body connected by the conventional coupling device is rotated by the coupling device, it grips the middle or last traveling body of the plurality of coupled traveling bodies and pushes the preceding traveling body. When the vehicle travels in this manner, the preceding traveling body is bent at random by the coupling device, and there is a problem that the entire plurality of traveling bodies cannot be operated as desired. In particular, when the traveling body is a train toy, the infant grasps and pushes the rearmost vehicle in order to travel while looking at the entire train including the leading vehicle that is the towing vehicle. However, since the vehicles connected by the connecting device change their directions at random, there is a problem that the vehicle cannot be guided in a target direction.
