<p>An endless track concept particularly adapted for a tracked vehicle toy but also applicable to a real tracked vehicle and wherein the track is characterized by its simple and economical construction, as required for a toy. This endless track includes a plurality of simply interconnected links, with each link being made solely of a length of wire bent into a generally U-shape configuration. Each link includes a transverse portion and opposite end portions, the transverse portion having a wheel-engaging concave central portion, a pair of wheel guide convex portions at opposite ends respectively of the concave central portion, outer end portions projecting endwise away from the wheel guide convex portions respectively, the end portions project from the intermediate portion generally longitudinally of the track and have each a hook engaging the corresponding outer and portion of a next link. The first legs are sufficiently long to prevent the track from coming out of engagement with the wheel of the vehicle toy, even if there is no track tensioning means on the toy.</p> |
