Definitions
- the invention relates to a toy module consisting of a housing which is essentially open on the underside, at least one row of knobs being provided on the top of the housing, the vertical sides of the housing likewise being provided with knobs.
- a toy module is known from US Pat. No. 3,566,531, which has different knob shapes for connecting to a further module. These knobs are relatively high and also have undercuts which make it difficult or even impossible for the stone to be removed from the injection molding tool. In addition, a connection of the stones to each other is so stable that especially small children will have problems to separate the stones from each other.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of developing a module of the type mentioned in such a way that the stones have a high clamping force with one another, but can nevertheless be easily detached from one another.
- each knob is approximately square, and each knob on its top has an outwardly tapering phase on each edge, which serves for centering when connecting two components and one tapering inwards to the top of the housing Has phase, the height of the knob is between 0.5 and 2 mm, but preferably 1 mm. This means that a quasi-positive connection is created, through which a relatively high clamping force is achieved, but which is nevertheless easy to release because only the resistance offered by the edge has to be overcome.
- both the angle of the inwardly tapering phase and that of the projection is approximately 5 °.
- the building block designated overall by 1 consists of a housing 2 which is open at the bottom and has knobs 3 on both the top and the vertical side surfaces.
- the housing itself there are two T-shaped webs 4 (FIG. 2), the horizontal part 4a of the web 4 having a lateral extent which corresponds to the distance between two knobs 3. That is, the horizontal part 4a of the web 4 is gripped by two knobs 3.
- the remaining knobs 3 are received by the housing wall 2a by clamping.
- FIG. 3 An enlarged representation of a knob is shown in FIG. 3; the knob 3 has a phase 3a which initially runs outwards, which serves for centering when two stones are put together, and which merges into an inward phase 3b with the formation of an edge 3c.
- the projections 2b arranged on the housing inner wall also have an angle of 5 ° corresponding to the angle of the phase of the knobs, so that the projection 2b and the phase 3b interlock and the surfaces abut one another.
