ポケット内に縮んで実物感が確保できる。[Advantages of the Invention] Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects. First, the connector body moves through the slotted hole with the stop pin as the center axis, moves according to the "U" -shaped groove opened at the bottom of the pocket, and the elastic force of the sandwiched spring plate causes the neck to move to the left and right. Swing, the center is in the most contracted position (Fig. 9), and the left and right ends are in the most extended position (Fig. 10). In other words, in the connection of model vehicles, in order to avoid contact between vehicles when passing through the curved part of the rail, in the conventional HO gauge, the distance was 12 mm, which is considerably wider than the actual one, but in this coupler In the curved part of the rail, the connector body extends from the pocket and swings to the left and right, so the distance between vehicles is 8 mm at the straight part, and even if the distance between vehicles is reduced to about two-thirds of the conventional one, the vehicles contact each other. Can be avoided
In addition, when traveling on the rail connecting portion, the connector main body is contracted in the pocket so that a real feeling can be secured.
次に、連結器本体の先端部2が相手方連結器本体の角穴
2′とが咬み合って連結されるが、ポケットに内蔵され
た板バネ10の作用により、相互の車両を軽く当てるだけ
で容易に連結することが可能となる。また、板バネ10の

る。Next, the tip end portion 2 of the connector main body is engaged with the square hole 2'of the counterpart connector main body to be connected, but by the action of the leaf spring 10 built in the pocket, it is only necessary to lightly hit the mutual vehicles. It becomes possible to connect easily. Further, the action of the leaf springs 10 ensures the mutual engagement of the connector main bodies, and prevents the vehicle from coming off due to some ups and downs of the rails.
さらに、ポケットに内蔵されたバネ板9が連結器本体を
常にポケットの中心に維持する作用発揮することによ
り、連結器の自動連結機能をより高度のものとする。Further, the spring plate 9 built in the pocket exerts the function of always maintaining the connector main body at the center of the pocket, thereby further enhancing the automatic connecting function of the connector.
最後に、連結器本体は板バネ10の弾力により押えられて
いるため、本体先端下部にあるフック4を鉛筆等の棒状

略することができる。Finally, since the body of the coupler is pressed by the elastic force of the leaf springs 10, the hooks 4 at the lower end of the body are lightly pushed up from below with a stick-shaped object such as a pencil, so that the bodies are easily released from each other. One-touch opening function is provided to eliminate the troublesome procedure of manually lifting and opening each one.
