Description

Assembled toy

Technical Field

The present invention relates to an assembled toy, and more particularly, to an assembled toy including a male module and a female module.

Background

There are various kinds of assembled toys.

Assembled toys such as music games are made by assembling small modules to each other by means of concave and convex parts formed in a matching manner, and can be used for making games such as buildings, riding and robots.

The building block toy can play games of various shapes such as building and the like by stacking small building blocks. The method using the concave-convex portions was evaluated as having an advantage of more free molding and easier decomposition than the stacking method.

In order to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the model on the block toy, there is also an assembled toy using magnets. Korean patent laid-open publication No. 10-2011-012609 (title of the invention: assembled toy unit with double magnets built therein) discloses that a plurality of six-sided volumetric wood blocks can be assembled with each other by magnets. Whereby a game of forming a shape of a desired shape while stacking the blocks by magnetic bonding can be performed.

In order to further stimulate the creativity of the user, there is also a method of assembling the concave-convex parts into a predetermined shape while having concave-convex parts and solving the interference between the concave-convex parts. Korean patent publication No. 10-1783296 (title of the invention: assembled toy) discloses an assembled toy assembled into a shape targeting a magnetically bondable block toy, such as a vast hexahedral shape. The magnet parts for connecting the modules, the column parts corresponding to the concave-convex parts, and the mounting holes can be confirmed.

On the other hand, the above-mentioned prior art patent has a plurality of assembly numbers in the case of assembly, and the difficulty of assembly is low. Only considering the coupling relationship between the column portion corresponding to the convex portion and the mounting hole corresponding to the concave portion, a user whose proficiency reaches a predetermined level can easily assemble the target shape.

Here, a user's demand for more difficult assembled toys arises. That is, the user has a desire to solve the more difficult problem.

From the standpoint of suppliers of assembled toys, there is still a need for related research of assembled toys that can more motivate the innovation and creativity of users while satisfying these demands of users.

The present inventors have completed the present invention after long and repeated studies to solve such a problem.

Detailed Description

Hereinafter, the most preferred embodiment of the present invention is explained. The thicknesses and spacings in the drawings are shown for ease of illustration and may be exaggerated in comparison to actual physical thicknesses. In describing the present invention, a known structure that is not related to the gist of the present invention may be omitted. In assigning reference numerals to the components of the respective drawings, it should be noted that the same reference numerals are given to the same components as much as possible even if they are shown on different drawings.

Fig. 1 is a diagram illustrating an overall perspective view of an assembled toy 10 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in fig. 1, assembled toy 10 includes a plurality of modules. The plurality of modules have a predetermined direction and are assembled with each other, and thus a final one of the large hexahedral structures as a target can be formed.

In the assembled toy shown in fig. 1, which corresponds to the state before the assembly is completed, the toy, which is marked with reference numeral 300, is moved in the second direction and assembled to the empty position, and the target shape can be assembled.

The target shape may be a hexahedral shape of 4 x 4 as shown in the drawings, but is not limited thereto, a 5 x 5 hexahedral structure can also be assembled in the case of assembling a greater number of modules, a rectangular parallelepiped structure such as 10×5×5 can also be assembled.

The plurality of modules are assembled in any one direction of a first direction I, a second direction II and a third direction III, so that a hexahedral structure with a target shape can be formed.

The modules of the embodiments of the present invention may include hexahedral module HA, HB, PHA, PHB, male modules M1, M2, and female modules F1, F2. In the drawings, only a part of the modules are given reference numerals, which are for convenience of description, and the same reference numerals may be given to other modules.

Basically, the modules can be assembled by magnetic force.

For this purpose, a magnet component is arranged in the module. For the magnet parts, reference numerals m, s, and c are given in the drawings. The member referred to by reference numeral m may be a magnet (such as a permanent magnet), the member referred to by reference numeral s may be a structure having a saw tooth structure that accommodates the magnet inside and imparts a sense of tightness to the user, and the member referred to by reference numeral c may be a structure that is directly mounted on the module to accommodate the above-mentioned members. For example, the magnet parts disclosed in korean patent laid-open publication No. 10-1783296 may be arranged in the module of the embodiment of the present invention. Of course, the present invention is not limited to this, and can be applied to a magnet coupling method used for toys of various types.

The assembly between the modules may be accomplished by a bonding relationship between the male and female modules.

Specifically, the male modules M1 and M2 have a structure that can be completely inserted into the female modules F1 and F2.

The female modules F1, F2 have a receiving groove structure that can fully receive the male modules M1, M2. The accommodating grooves AH1, AH2 are formed on at least one side of the mother module. According to embodiments of the present invention, as shown, the receiving groove may be formed at all sides of the female mold piece. Namely, the male module is inserted into the accommodating groove, and the male module and the female module can be assembled with each other. For example, the pillar portion structure and the mounting hole structure disclosed in korean patent laid-open publication No. 10-1783296 are applicable.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, receiving grooves AH1, AH2 may be formed on all sides of the female mold pieces F1, F2, so that the male mold pieces M1, M2 can be received in the female mold pieces through the receiving grooves in the first direction I in the drawing. In addition, the mold block may be accommodated in the accommodating groove in the second direction II shown in the drawings. In addition, the mold block may be accommodated in the accommodating groove in the third direction III shown in the drawings. That is, the accommodation direction can be freely decided according to the user's mind or the combination position between toys. Finally, it can be accommodated in various directions that can be assembled into a target shape. On the other hand, the female module may have a surface (i.e., a closing surface) where the receiving groove is not formed, and the male module cannot be received as the closing surface, so that the assembling difficulty can be adjusted. In this regard, description will be made later.

The first direction I, the second direction II, and the third direction III intersect each other, and may be directions orthogonal to each other.

As shown, the magnet components may be disposed in the male modules M1 and M2. Accordingly, the male module may be assembled to other adjacent modules (e.g., hexahedral modules or other male modules) through the female module. That is, the male module can be coupled to another adjacent module in a state where the male module is accommodated in the female module.

Alternatively, the magnet component may be disposed on the master mold. That is, when the female mold piece has one or more sealing surfaces, the magnet component can be disposed on the sealing surfaces.

On the other hand, in the present invention, the description has been made on the basis of the assembly by the magnetic force at the time of the assembly between the modules, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the assembly by the magnetic force may be omitted because the assembly may be made by the coupling relationship between the male module and the female module in order to form the hexahedral structure. That is, even if there is no fastening force (i.e., magnet component) generated by the magnetic force, the coupling force that maintains the overall shape can be ensured by the structural coupling between the male module and the female module.

Hereinafter, the structure of the assembled toy according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to fig. 2 to 6.

Fig. 2 is a diagram showing first toy 100, second toy 200, and third toy 300 constituting assembled toy 10 of the embodiment of the present invention in more detail.

Then, fig. 3 is a diagram of a third toy 300' for illustrating another embodiment of the present invention in more detail than fig. 2. For ease of illustration, a toy is shown in fig. 3 that is identical to that shown in fig. 2 except for a third toy.

First, referring to fig. 2, the first toy 100 of the embodiment of the present invention includes a first hexahedral module HA, and includes one or more first male modules M1 mounted on at least one side of the first hexahedral module HA.

As an example, as shown in fig. 2, a total of 2 male modules installed on the upper and lower surfaces of the first hexahedral module may be included.

In the present invention, the description has been made centering on an embodiment in which the first toy includes 1 hexahedral module and 2 male modules are arranged as one example in the third direction III, but the present invention is not limited to the arrangement direction or the number. For example, 1 or 3 or more male modules may be mounted on one hexahedral module, or 2 or more male modules may be connected to the hexahedral module in surface contact with each other, instead of 1 male module. In addition, 2 male modules may be arranged orthogonally, rather than in a row (e.g., any one male module arranged in a third orientation and another male module arranged in a second orientation).

Then, the second toy 200 of the embodiment of the present invention includes a second hexahedral module HB, and includes one or more first female modules F1 mounted on at least one side of the second hexahedral module HB.

As an example, as shown in fig. 2, 2 second hexahedral modules are included, and 1 first female module installed on an upper face of any one of the second hexahedral modules (e.g., hexahedral modules shown on the left side of the drawing) and 1 first female module installed in front of the other second hexahedral module (e.g., hexahedral modules shown on the right side of the drawing) may be included in total, and 2 female modules may be included.

In the present invention, an embodiment in which the second toy includes 2 hexahedral modules and a female module mounted one on each of the 2 hexahedral modules is described centering on, but the present invention is not limited to the arrangement direction or the number. For example, instead of 2 mother modules, more than 2 mother modules may be mounted on one hexahedral module, or 1 or 3 mother modules may be connected to the hexahedral module by being in surface contact with each other. In addition, instead of arranging 1 hexahedral module in a quasi-orthogonal manner, 2 female modules may be arranged in a row (e.g., all 2 female modules are arranged in the third direction).

The third toy 300 of the embodiment of the present invention includes a pair of hexahedral modules PH in surface contact, and includes one or more second male modules M2 mounted on at least one side of one of the pair of hexahedral modules PHA and one or more second female modules F2 mounted on at least one side of the other side of the module PHB.

As an example, as shown in fig. 2, 2 second male modules mounted on the left and rear of one side module (hexahedral module shown on the left side of the drawing) and 1 second female module mounted on the other side module (hexahedral module shown on the right side of the drawing) may be included.

As another example, as shown in fig. 3, 2 second male modules mounted on the left and right sides of one side module (hexahedral module shown on the left side of the drawing) and 1 second female module mounted on the other side module (hexahedral module shown on the right side of the drawing) may be included.

In the present invention, the description has been made centering on the embodiment in which the third toy includes two hexahedral modules constituting a pair with 2 male modules mounted on one of the hexahedral modules and 1 female module mounted on the other hexahedral module, but the present invention is not limited to the arrangement direction or the number. For example, 1 or 3 or more male modules may be mounted on one side of the hexahedral module, 2 or more female modules may be mounted on the other side of the hexahedral module instead of 1 female module, or 3 or more hexahedral modules may be connected in surface contact with each other instead of 2 hexahedral modules.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the first toy 100 may be assembled to the second toy by using the coupling relationship between the male module M1 of the first toy 100 itself and the female module F1 of the second toy 200. As shown in fig. 2 and 3, first toy 100 may be assembled by being moved in third direction III.

The first toy and the second toy may have an arrangement between modules of other shapes in addition to the arrangement shape shown in the drawings, in which case the combination relationship between the male and female modules may also be used to effect assembly between the first toy and the second toy. Finally, the assembly can be performed in various directions that can be assembled into the target shape.

The third toy 300 may be assembled to the second toy by utilizing the coupling relationship between the male module M2 of the third toy 300 itself and the female module F1 of the second toy 200. As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the third toy 300 can be assembled by moving in the second direction II.

The third toy and the second toy may have an arrangement between the modules of other arrangement shapes in addition to the arrangement shape shown in the drawings, in which case the combination relationship between the male and female modules may also be used to achieve the assembly of the third toy and the second toy with each other. Finally, the assembly can be performed in various directions that can be assembled into the target shape.

In the drawings, the embodiment in which the first toy is assembled to the second toy is described mainly, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the first toy may be assembled to the third toy.

According to embodiments of the present invention, the female module F1, the female module F2, and the female module F1, F2 of the second toy may have the same structure. As an example, the receiving grooves AH1, AH2 formed in the master mold blocks may have the same size as each other.

In addition, the male module M1, the male module M2, and the male modules M1 and M2 of the first toy may have the same configuration. As an example, the male modules M1, M2 may have the same size as each other.

In addition, the hexahedral module HA, HB, PHA, PHB, and HA, HB, PHA, PHB of the first toy, the second toy, and the third toy may have the same structure. As an example, the hexahedral modules HA, HB, PHA, PHB may have the same size as each other.

With continued reference to fig. 2 and 3, a third toy according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail.

In contrast to the first toy 100 or the second toy 200, the third toy 300 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes all of the male and female modules, except for the hexahedral module. In this case, the assembly difficulty is increased when the target shape is assembled with the assembled toy, and thus the creation force and innovation of the user can be improved.

At this time, the male and female modules of the third toy may be configured in a multi-layered structure instead of a single-layered structure. That is, all of the hexahedral module, the male module, and the female module of the third toy are arranged in the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the third toy 300 is configured such that, when 2 hexahedral modules PHA and PHB constituting a pair are arranged in the second direction II, at least one of the second male modules M2 mounted on one hexahedral module PHA is arranged in the first direction I. Then, the second mother modules F2 mounted on the other side hexahedral module PHB are arranged in the third direction III.

That is, the pair of hexahedral modules PHA, PHB, the second male module M2, and the second female module F2 constituting the third toy 300 are all arranged in the first direction I, the second direction II, and the third direction III.

The modules of the embodiment of the present invention are arranged in surface contact with each other, so that when a pair of hexahedral modules PHA and PHB are in surface contact with each other in the second direction II, it can be regarded that at least one of the hexahedral modules PHA and the second male module M2 is in surface contact with each other in the first direction I, and the other hexahedral module PHB and the second female module are in surface contact with each other in the third direction III.

Then, in the third toy 300, the second female module is arranged at a different layer from the remaining modules PHA, PHB, M2 other than itself. If the layer configuring the second parent module is an upper layer, the configuration layers of the remaining modules other than the second parent module may be lower layers.

The same description applies to fig. 3. That is, the third toy 300' is configured such that at least one of the second male modules M2 mounted to the one-sided hexahedral module PHA is arranged in the second direction II when the 2 hexahedral modules PHA, PHB forming a pair are arranged in the first direction I. Then, the second mother modules F2 mounted on the other side hexahedral module PHB are arranged in the third direction III.

That is, the pair of hexahedral modules PHA, PHB, the second male module M2, and the second female module F2 constituting the third toy 300' are all arranged in the first direction I, the second direction II, and the third direction III.

The modules in the embodiment of the present invention are arranged in a surface contact manner, so that when a pair of hexahedral modules PHA and PHB are in surface contact with each other in the first direction I, it can be regarded that at least one of the hexahedral modules PHA and the second male module M2 is in surface contact with each other in the second direction II, and the other hexahedral module PHB and the second female module are in surface contact with each other in the third direction III.

Then, in the third toy 300', the second female module is arranged at a different layer from the remaining modules PHA, PHB, M2 other than itself. If the layer configuring the second parent module is an upper layer, the configuration layers of the remaining modules other than the second parent module may be lower layers.

If the third toy with the multi-layer structure is used, the assembling difficulty can be greatly improved when the toy is assembled into the target shape, the structure of the third toy, such as the whole of the male module and the female module on one toy, is further increased on the basis of simply combining the male module and the female module between the toys, and the assembling number for achieving the final shape is further reduced, so that the creativity of a user can be greatly improved in the process of establishing the combining relation between the toys and manufacturing the target shape.

Fig. 4 is a diagram illustrating fourth toy 400 and fifth toy 500 constituting assembled toy 10 of the embodiment of the present invention in more detail.

Referring to fig. 4, the fourth toy 400 includes a single third female module F3, and the third female module F3 has the same structure as the above-described female modules F1, F2. As an example, the accommodating groove AH3 formed in the third parent module F3 may have the same size as the accommodating grooves AH1 and AH 2.

Then, the fifth toy 500 includes a single bar-shaped module RO penetrating at least one of the accommodating grooves AH1, AH2, AH3 of the female mold pieces F1, F2, F3. As an example, the outer diameter of the bar module RO may have the same size as the outer diameter of the first male module M1 or the second male module M2 described above.

The third toy described in fig. 2 to 3, together with the fourth toy and the fifth toy, may further increase the difficulty of assembly. This is because the number of assemblies to be assembled into the target shape is further limited.

An assembled embodiment is shown in fig. 5-6.

Fig. 5 and 6 illustrate an embodiment of assembling second to fifth toys according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 5 shows a state in which assembly is being performed, and fig. 6 shows a state in which assembly is completed.

As shown in fig. 5 and 6, the fifth toy 500 may be assembled to the second toy 200' and the third toy 300 in the first direction I.

Specifically, the fifth toy 500 can be assembled to the second toy in the first direction I using the coupling relationship between the bar module RO of the fifth toy 500 itself and the first parent module F1 of the second toy 200'. At this time, it is noted that the second toy 200' includes the second hexahedral module HB and includes one or more first mother modules F1 mounted on at least one side of the second hexahedral module HB, which is the same as that described in fig. 2 to 3, except for a difference in arrangement direction or number between the modules.

In addition, the fifth toy 500 can be assembled to the third toy in the first direction I by utilizing the coupling relationship between the bar-shaped module RO of the fifth toy 500 itself and the second female module F2 of the third toy 300. For ease of illustration, third toy 300 is shown as being identical to the third toy illustrated in fig. 2, although other third toys having different orientations or numbers of modules may be used.

In addition, the fourth toy 400 can be assembled to the fifth toy in the first direction I by utilizing the coupling relationship between the female module F3 of the fourth toy 400 itself and the bar-shaped module RO of the fifth toy 500.

The coupling relationship between the second toy to the fifth toy may be assembled by various directions capable of being assembled into the final target shape, not limited to the directions or arrangements shown in the drawings.

The long bar-shaped module RO formed to pass through the 4 mother modules further increases the difficulty of assembling the assembled toy. This is because the assembly position of the bar-shaped modules can only assemble one or more of the first to third mother modules among the above modules, and thus the number of assemblies to achieve the final shape is very limited. As shown in the figure, the assembly position of the strip-shaped modules can only assemble the female module of the second toy, the female module of the third toy and the female module of the fourth toy.

Any one of the first to third female modules may be installed at the portion indicated by the dotted line in fig. 6, which is a position where the bar-shaped module having a length that can pass through 4 female modules is located, as shown in the drawing, and only the first to third female modules may be assembled, so that the assembly difficulty may be increased.

On the other hand, in the overall angle of the assembly aspect, if the fifth toy is to increase the assembly difficulty, the fourth toy may relatively play a role in reducing the assembly difficulty. This is because the fourth toy is formed of only one single female module without being in surface contact with any other module such as the first toy to the third toy, and thus the fourth toy can function to cancel out the single female module corresponding to the male module portion of the assembly protrusion.

As described above, according to the embodiments of the present invention, an assembled toy assembled into one of a plurality of combinations, and thus a target shape can be manufactured, can be provided. Therefore, the innovation of the user is improved, and the thinking expansion can be facilitated.

Fig. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of a third toy 300 "of an embodiment of the present invention.

Then, fig. 8 is a diagram showing another example of the third toy of the embodiment of the present invention; fig. 9 is a diagram showing another example of the third toy of the embodiment of the present invention.

First, as shown in fig. 7, the second female module F2 "constituting the third toy 300" may be a closed-sided structure. That is, the second female module may have a face CF (i.e., a closed face) where the receiving groove is not formed.

The closing surface CF of the second female module of the third toy increases the difficulty of assembling the assembled toy. The male modules M1 and M2 have a coupling relationship in which coupling is possible only in a direction in which the receiving grooves are formed in the 5 faces of the second female module F2″ and coupling is not possible in a direction in which the closing face CF is formed. Therefore, the user should consider the assembly direction limited by the formation position of the closed surface to assemble, so that the assembly difficulty is increased.

In the drawings it is shown that one upper face of the second parent module is closed, but is not limited thereto, but other faces may be closed, or more than 2 faces may be closed.

At this time, the closing surface may perform the same function as one surface of the hexahedral module when the modules are assembled. That is, assembly between modules can be achieved by magnetic force. The other hexahedral modules are assembled to each other by the magnetic force of the magnet parts disposed in the modules, respectively, while the other hexahedral modules are in surface contact with the sealing surfaces. However, as described above, the assembly using magnetic force (i.e., magnet components) may be omitted when assembling the modules of the assembled toy.

On the other hand, as described below, the closing surface is also the basis of a structure that further increases the difficulty of assembly. As shown in fig. 8 or 9, a third male module M3 may also be mounted on the closing surface CF.

In this case, if a sealing surface is present in the second female module F2' ", a third male module M3 can be mounted on this sealing surface. Then, in the case where there are 2 or more sealing surfaces in the second female module, one or more third male modules may be attached to each of one or more sealing surfaces.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, at least one of the one or more third male modules M3 is preferably arranged in a direction different from the arrangement direction of the other male modules M2 arranged in the third toy. Specifically, as shown in fig. 8, when the second male modules M2 mounted to the one-sided hexahedral module PHA are arranged in the second direction II, the third male modules M3 can be arranged in the third direction III. Alternatively, as shown in fig. 9, when the second male module M2 mounted on the one-sided hexahedral module PHA is aligned in the first direction I and the second direction II, the third male module M3 may be aligned in the third direction III. That is, the third male module M3 may be arranged to be orthogonal to the arrangement direction of the second male module M2.

Thus, the third male module and the remaining modules PHA, PHB, M, F2' "other than itself in the third toy may be arranged in different layers. If the configuration layer of the third male module is an upper layer, the second female module may be a middle layer, and then the configuration layers of the remaining modules except the third male module and the second female module may be lower layers.

Thus, from the third toy to the third male module, the assembled toy with the highest assembly difficulty can be designed, and meanwhile, the design which can keep the consistency combined with other modules can be realized. Instead of forming the male module and the female module randomly, the consistency of the combination direction is kept consistent in the assembly difficulty, so that the assembled toy with various designs from low difficulty to high difficulty can be provided.

The technical idea of the present invention is described in detail according to the above preferred embodiment, but it should be noted that the above embodiment is for explanation and not for limitation. In addition, it is understood by those of ordinary skill in the art of the present invention that various embodiments may be implemented within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.
