If there was no spring it would need some other kind of energy storage device. For example, a pendulum clock uses the potential energy of the pendulum in order to store the clocks energy. This is probably not the case in a toy, but it still needs an energy storage system.

How does a wind up torch work?

all windup watches work by a mainspring that is wound up really tight, the spring wants to let go as soon as it is wound up tight. as you wind up the mainspring that parts in the watch start to move and the watch starts to keeps time. this is called a balance action. the balance wheel has a hairspring under it that returns the balance wheel to its main position as you wind the mainspring the force of it puts tension on the parts and that is how the windup watch works.

How does a spring work?

A spring works by storing potential energy when it is compressed or stretched, and releasing that energy when it returns to its original shape. This creates a force that can push or pull objects connected to the spring. Springs are commonly used in various applications such as in car suspensions, toys, and mechanical devices.
