ABSTRACT:
A toy race type game employing magnetic coupling can be constructed utilizing a non-ferromagnetic support serving to hold one or more bodies serving as game elements in such a manner that such bodies may be moved relative to the upper surface of the support. A drive means is provided for moving an actuator carrying a holder beneath such support in such a manner that the holder is moved adjacent to the lower surface of the support. Magnetic members are provided on the body and the holder for magnetically coupling the bodies to the holder so that these bodies are moved relative to the surface of the support as the drive means are actuated. The actuator used comprises an endless, flexible belt which is located beneath the support and which is held so that along part of its length it is capable of flexing so as to follow a non-uniform path as the drive means is operated. Preferably the holder consists of a rotatable disk mounted on the belt. Internal track means may be provided so as to periodically engage the periphery of the disk as the belt is moved so as to cause the disk to rotate. Such rotation causes a variation in the location and movement of the bodies and the support as a result of the magnetic coupling.
