ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for automatically uncoupling track-guided toy vehicles includes a first coupling element pivotally mounted on one toy vehicle for pivotal movement between a coupling position and an uncoupling position and a second coupling element mounted on another toy vehicle. The first coupling element couples with the second coupling element when the first coupling element is in a coupling position, and the first coupling element uncouples from the second coupling element when the first coupling element is in an uncoupling position. A spring pivotally biases the first coupling element in the coupling position. A first pivotally suspends a pendulum from the first coupling member. A lifting element is disposed to underlie the path of travel of the toy vehicles, the lifting element being positioned to engage the pendulum when the pendulum passes over the lifting element such that the engagement of the pendulum by the lifting element is operable to effect pivoting of the first coupling member from its coupling to its uncoupling position.
