Rear axle of a chassis for a toy vehicle
This rear axle of a chassis is suitable for installation in a toy vehicle which is operated as a track-guided vehicle on a raceway. The chassis has a front and rear axles and a guide wedge which is movable about a vertical pivot axle to cooperate with a groove on the track in the front area. The rear axle is driven by an electric motor, with the rear axle and the electric motor together forming a module. To optimize the driving properties of the toy vehicle, the module of the toy vehicle is held in position on a receptacle section of the chassis with the mediation of a guide arm-spring system.
