Abstract
The present invention provides a suspension for a toy and a vehicle toy, which can properly ground right and left wheels. A suspension for a running toy comprises: right and left turning members for turning right and left wheels in clockwise and counterclockwise directions around each predetermined shaft; a connecting member for connecting the right and left turning members with each other, and for constituting a turning pair with each of the right and left turning members; and a biasing member having right and left edge portions, which is supported in a middle of a width direction of the running toy, and which extends on the right and left turning members, the right and left edge portions being elastically deformable vertically; wherein the right and left turning members are turned around the predetermined shaft by shaking the connecting member in right and left directions; the right and left turning members are constructed so as to be movable vertically in a predetermined range; and the turning members are pressed with the right and left edge portions by using a biasing force which is caused by elastically deforming the biasing member, so that the right and left wheels are grounded to a road surface.
