Plug-in toy that can be put together like a mosaic

The invention relates to a mosaic-like assemblable Plug-in toys. It also relates to a toy box. This plug-in toy has a board or base plate on which a number of individual ones A mosaic of composable, brick-like building blocks can be put together in an appealing arrangement can.

In U.S. Patent 3 »274,727, a tessellated assemblable plug-in toys described. The invention is concerned with improving this previously known Toys. Furthermore, it is her task to create these toys and their packaging in general to improve.

It is therefore the aim of the invention to provide a mosaic that can be put together like a mosaic To develop plug-in toys, which by using an underlying picture under the brick-likeu Blocks is designed more appealing. Furthermore, a

The toy has a base plate (10) from sicto crossing bars (11) is formed. pencils

Components (13) that can be put together like a mosaic can be inserted into the base plate (10). The building blocks

(13) have pegs (14), a side surface (15) on the back of the building block and spacers (16) which are designed as cylindrical shoulders.

A background image is created on the grid by means of plates made of relatively thin material. (17) trained, which are placed on the bars. These plates have openings (18) and an irregular border (27). When the plates (17) are placed on the grid, the openings (18) are aligned with the individual openings of the grid.

The toy is put together by placing one or more plates (17) on the grid (10). Then building blocks (13) are pushed through the holes (18) in the plates. These building blocks are inserted into the lattice holes so that the pegs (14) are held under friction between the lattice bars (11). The spacers (16) raise the surface of the building blocks (13) above the grid. Since the spacers are wider than the holes (18) in the plate (17), which plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the stator- (10) (see. Fig. 2). · - - ·; ■

In Fig. 6, a box (19) for the plug-in toy is shown, this box white; a base portion (20) and a sheath (21), the sheath (21) can ge§ehobej on the base part (ZQ) | The base part has side walls and end walls (22) and a base plate (23). The side walls close inner walls (24) and an outwardly directed sloping wall (.2 ^) §in, which is designed in the manner of a picture frame.

From Fig. 7 and 8 it follows that the base plate (10) of the toy between the walls of the, GFundpart of the Box can be pushed. The box is sized so that the flat base plate is held in it will. For this purpose, the base part of the box has a preference ·? have a resilient projection on the inner wall (24), unoVfewar above the top edge of the base plate (10), if this is found in the box. This resilient projection ensures that the base plate (10) in the Frame, which is formed by the base part (20), remains.

From Figure 8 it can be seen that the resilient projection advantageously consists of an inner wall (24) which is bent outwards at a right angle. This inner wall can be formed by a circumferential incision or by a corresponding notch at the point of the desired protrusion, if the Box is made of cardboard, cardboard or similar material. :

The plates (17) can also be made from a rectangular blank be punched out of thin plastic.
