  • Patent number: 9610514
    Abstract: A traveling toy wheel whose simple configuration allows multiple devices to be enjoyed and can further change fine offsets is provided.

Fitting holes as fixing portions are provided in one of the first rim member or the second rim member and elastic convex pieces as fixed portions are provided in the other of the first and second rim members. When the elastic convex pieces are fitted in the fitting holes, the first rim member and the second rim member are jointed relatively unmovably.
