As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, a coupler 7, which is a general coupler, is widely known. When the passenger cars 8 and 8 are connected using the coupler 7, a hollow connecting the passenger cars 8 and 8 to each other. Only the thin and small shape of the (hood) can be attached, and the actual feeling as a model is thin, and a more realistic railway model has been demanded.

いた。In response to this, FIG. 10 and FIG.
The coupling coupler for the articulated vehicle shown in 1 has been proposed. The articulated vehicle is a vehicle of a system in which the center of the vehicle connecting portion and the center of the bogie are aligned with each other, and the outer shape of the coupling coupler is configured as a hollow. The connection coupler is mainly composed of a frame 1 formed by partitioning four sides, and a cross-shaped member 2 integrally formed and connected to an inner surface portion of each side inside the rectangular frame 1. The cross-shaped member 2 was formed of a columnar vertical shaft portion 2a and a horizontal crosspiece portion 2b provided substantially in the middle thereof.

る。On the other hand, a trolley 3 having two wheels on each side.
Has a single shaft 3a that rises from the center position of its upper portion, and this shaft 3a is the vertical shaft portion 2 of the cross member 2 described above.
It is connected and fixed to the lower frame part side of the rectangular frame 1 on the same central axis as a. Therefore, the trolley 3
The shaft 3a extending from the shaft 3a and the vertical shaft portion 2a of the cross member 2 are formed as if they were one shaft, and the shaft penetrates the frame 1 in the vertical direction to have such a structure.
【０００５】そして、各連接車４の端部には連結アーム

５は、それぞれその上下位置を僅かにずらして設けられ
ている。接続される各連接車４は、取付け位置が相互に
ずれた連結アーム５を備える端部を対面させるように組
み合される。A connecting arm 5 is fixed to the end of each connecting wheel 4. A circular recess, that is, a C-shaped engaging groove 5a is formed at the tip of the connecting arm 5. Further, the connecting arms 5 fixed to both ends of the connecting car 4 are provided with their vertical positions slightly shifted. The connecting wheels 4 to be connected are assembled so that the ends provided with the connecting arms 5 whose mounting positions are displaced from each other face each other.
【０００６】従って、連接車４の一方の端部に設けられ

される。Therefore, the connecting arm 5 provided at one end of the connecting wheel 4 is fitted and mounted, for example, from the one opening surface of the frame 1 to the vertical shaft portion 2a above the horizontal crosspiece portion 2b. The connecting arm 5 connected to and provided at the other end of the connecting wheel 4 facing the end of the connecting wheel 4 is provided with a horizontal crosspiece portion 2b from the opening surface on the opposite side of the frame 1.
It is fitted and connected to the vertical shaft portion 2a in the lower portion and connected.

段で連結された連接車４がレール６を走行する時、この
回転範囲により算出される曲率のカーブを通過すること
ができることになる。When the engaging groove 5a formed at the tip of each connecting arm 5 is relatively fitted and attached to the vertical shaft portion 2a in the frame 1, both of them are relatively rotatable, and the rotation thereof is possible. The range is up to the position where the connecting arm 5 contacts the left and right frame portion sides of the frame 1. As a result, when the connecting car 4 connected by such a conventional means travels on the rail 6, it can pass through the curve of the curvature calculated by this rotation range.

【発明が解決しようとする課題】前記図８及び図９に示
されるようなカプラー７を用いて客車８、８を連結する
場合、客車８、８同士を連絡するホロ（幌）は、薄くて
小さな形だけのものしか取り付けることができず、模型
としての実感性が薄く、ホロ（幌）の部分を含めてより
実感的な鉄道模型が求められていた。When the passenger cars 8 and 8 are connected by using the coupler 7 as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the hollow (top) connecting the passenger cars 8 and 8 is thin. There was a need for a more realistic railway model that can be installed only in a small shape and has little real sensation as a model, including the holo part.
【０００９】また、前記図１０及び図１１に示される連
接車の連結カプラー構造では、ホロ（幌）を実感的にで
きる反面、連結間隔を実車のように狭くすると、模型の
場合にはレールのカーブ部分における曲率半径が小さい
ため車両の端部がフレーム１に接触して、結局その曲率
のカーブを通過することができないと言う不都合があっ
た。Further, in the coupling coupler structure of the connecting vehicle shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, while the hollow can be actually felt, if the coupling interval is narrowed like a real vehicle, in the case of a model, the rail Since the radius of curvature in the curved portion is small, there is an inconvenience that the end portion of the vehicle comes into contact with the frame 1 and eventually cannot pass through the curved curve.
【００１０】勿論、連結アーム５の長さを長くして連接
車４の端部間隔を大きくとればこのようなカーブの通過
は可能であるが、これは大変見栄えが悪く、鉄道模型と
しての商品性に欠けると言う問題がある。鉄道模型はで
きる限り実車に近く制作されていることが前提である。Of course, if the length of the connecting arm 5 is increased and the distance between the end portions of the connecting car 4 is increased, it is possible to pass through such a curve, but this is very unattractive and is a model railroad product. There is a problem of lack of sex. The premise is that the model railroad is made as close to the actual car as possible.
【００１１】更に、従来の鉄道模型用連接車の連結カプ
ラー構造では、台車３から立ち上がった軸３ａに実質的
に嵌合装着された連結アーム５は、この軸３ａに対して
回転可能ではあるが、連接車４に対しては固定であるた
め、連接車４が軸３ａに対して離隔接近する機能は全く
ない。Further, in the conventional coupling coupler structure for the railway model articulated car, the coupling arm 5 substantially fitted and mounted on the shaft 3a rising from the carriage 3 is rotatable with respect to the shaft 3a. Since the connecting wheel 4 is fixed to the connecting wheel 4, the connecting wheel 4 does not have a function of approaching the shaft 3a at a distance.

４に対して、又は連結アーム５が軸３ａに対して伸縮す
る機能がないためであると考えられていた。[0012] Therefore, when a railroad model constituted by a plurality of articulated cars 4 connected by such a conventional coupling coupler structure is run on a rail, the body easily sways to the left and right, and the running of the vehicle is unstable, resulting in derailment. I was even afraid of. That is, it has been considered that such a problem occurs because the connecting arm 5 does not have a function of expanding and contracting with respect to the connecting wheel 4 or the connecting arm 5 with respect to the shaft 3a.
【００１３】更に、近年新幹線等の高速車両において

く望まれていた。Further, in recent years, high speed vehicles such as the Shinkansen have adopted a type in which the coupler is not exposed to the outside, and from this point also, the development of a novel holo coupler is strongly desired.

An object of the present invention is to provide a holo connecting device for a railroad model that facilitates connection and release of vehicles.

である。By providing the expansion / contraction and swinging mechanism 12, the holo connecting device can be freely expanded / contracted and swung, and can be connected when traveling straight and at a slight deflection angle (relative angle of the vehicle when traveling on a curve). The surface spacing can be narrowed to the extent that it approximates the actual vehicle scale, and the connecting surface spacing will automatically widen when passing through a curve, allowing smooth running without contact between the corners inside the curve at the opposite vehicle ends. Can be guaranteed. Further, the degree of expansion and contraction of the holo connecting device and the degree of swinging can be increased, so that not only the holo connecting devices do not come apart while the vehicle is running, but also the vehicle does not derail, and the structure is simple. It is possible to obtain a vehicle with a hood for a railroad model that does not need to be incorporated into a trolley as in the conventional case, can be assembled independently, has a simple assembling step, and has a shape and structure similar to that of an actual vehicle.

内側のコーナ部同士の接触を生じることなく、スムーズ
な走行を保障できるものである。Further, by providing the extension / contraction and swinging mechanism, the hollow connecting device can be freely extended / retracted and swingable, and can be connected when traveling straight and at a slight deflection angle (relative angle of the vehicle when traveling on a curve). The surface spacing can be narrowed to the extent that it approximates the actual vehicle scale, and the connecting surface spacing will automatically widen when passing through a curve, allowing smooth running without contact between the corners inside the curve at the opposite vehicle ends. Can be guaranteed.
【００３４】また、ホロ連結装置の伸縮度並びに首振り
