Definitions

  • the invention relates to a component game system with at least partially different landscape elements according to the generic term of Claim 1.
  • a modular system is known from EP 0 269 798 A, from the toy rock can be assembled.
  • the individual modular elements have an irregular surface structure and are with Provide plug and matching indentations, so that the connection several elements to a toy rock massif is possible.
  • Such connector systems have two disadvantages. On the one hand the spigots protrude upwards and impair the aesthetic Quality of the toy rock. Secondly, the strength of the Plug connections limited, since they can be easily removed on train.
  • a component game system is known from 332643.
  • contact surfaces are provided which are an integer multiple distance from each other.
  • the modular elements point over the contact surfaces protruding plug pins for connection with other elements on. These pegs affect the aesthetic quality of the rock.
  • the plug-in connections are easily detachable on the train.
  • the invention has for its object a component game system of the generic type to create that with relatively few different Elements of the structure very different largely free creative landscapes.
  • landscape elements with contact surfaces each located in a predetermined height grid can consist of a few different landscape elements very different landscapes can be built by on the one hand the assignment of two landscape elements to each other largely can be done arbitrarily and this in turn by a third landscape element can be bridged and connected. In this way, game landscapes can largely be designed freely.
  • the landscape element 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 is the same like the landscape element 2 according to FIGS. 4 to 6 and that Landscape element 3 according to FIGS. 7 to 9 in the manner of a rock formation designed. This can be seen particularly clearly from FIG. 12.
  • Each Landscape element 1, 2, 3 has a plane defining a basic plane Base area 4 or 5 or 6 on the circumferential by the lower Edge 7 of the essentially hollow elements 1 and 2, respectively or 3 is formed.
  • Each element 1 or 2 or 3 has any design Design elements 8 that only have an aesthetic function, have the function of promoting the game. Such design elements 8 can be used not only as rock parts, but also as meadow sections, Ponds or waterfalls or the like be designed.
  • the landscape element 1 according to FIGS. 1 to 3 has three contact surfaces 9, 10, 11, which run parallel to the base 4 and which of of the base 4 and each have a height spacing that corresponds to a vertical grid a.
  • the bearing surface 9 thus points from the Base area 4 a distance a.
  • the support surface 10 faces from the Base area 4 at a height distance 2a, while the support surface 11 from the base 4 has a height distance 3a.
  • the landscape element 2 according to FIGS. 4 to 6 has two contact surfaces 12, 13, which also correspond to a height distance from the base area 5 have the vertical grid a.
  • the bearing surface 12 thus points a height distance a to the base 5 while the support surface 13 has a height distance 2a from the base area 5. This too Support surfaces 12, 13 run parallel to the base surface 4.
  • the landscape element 3 has only one contact surface 14 on, which also runs parallel to the base 6 and which of the Base 6 has a height distance a.
  • a locking opening 15 is formed in each contact surface 9 to 14.
  • the locking openings 15 of the landscape element 1 are - In the top view of FIG. 1 or the bottom view of FIG. 3 - on arranged the tips of an (imaginary) equilateral triangle 16 so each have the same surface distance b. That from Triangle 16 defined to them is therefore equiangular, ie has three pointed ones Angle c of 60 ° each. If a landscape element is more than three Bearing surfaces, and thus has more than three locking openings 15, then the further locking openings 15 point to two more Locking openings also a distance b.
  • the landscape element 2 with two contact surfaces 12, 13 points in total two locking openings 15, which are also a distance b from each other to have.
  • each locking element 21 has approximately U-shaped cross section. Two are elastic on a central web 25 formed, parallel legs 26 formed. Each leg 26 has a bearing opening 27, which is a common Have pivot axis 28 serving central axis. At the opposing ones Side walls 29 of the respective storage device 20 are facing pivot pin 30 formed, which is also a have common pivot axis 28. Due to the elasticity of the Leg 26, the locking element 21 in this way in the bearing device 20 are engaged that the bearing openings 27 each Pick up pivot pin 30, as shown in Fig. 10.
  • a latching web 31 is formed on each of the side walls 29.
  • recesses 32 In the Legs 26 of the locking elements 21 are formed recesses 32, each arranged at an angular distance f from one another are, which is greater than 90 °.
  • the recesses 32 can each under snap together elastic deformation of the legs 26 with the locking webs 31.
  • This configuration enables the locking elements 21 in a position shown in FIG. 10 with the bearing device 20 can be locked in which the central axis 24 is perpendicular to the respective base area 4 or 5 or 6, in other words in the the central web 25 in the corresponding base area 4 or 5 or 6 lies.
  • the locking element 21 can be pivoted in this way be that it is completely in the respective cavity 17 or 18 or 19th disappears, i.e. no longer over the respective base area 4 or 5 or 6 protrudes downwards.
  • each locking element 21 there are locking elements 33 molded on an outwardly projecting locking bead 34.
  • the locking elements 33 are separated from one another by recesses 35, so that they are elastic are deformable towards the central axis 24.
  • the locking openings 15 each have a configuration of the catch elements 33 with the undercut 36 matched with the catch beads 34 on, so that the locking elements 33 elastic in the locking openings 15 can be locked. Loosening is by subtracting each Locking element 33 from the locking opening 15 without further notice possible.
  • Fig. 12 is the construction of a landscape from landscape elements shown, where only the joining of two landscape elements 1 and 2 is shown.
  • Landscape element 1 are all three locking elements 21 in the Cavity 17 of this element 1 pivoted in the manner described, so that the locking elements 33 do not protrude downward over the base area 4.
  • a locking element 21 unfolded down over the base 5, so that be Locking element 33 snapped into the locking opening 15 of the support surface 11 can be.
  • the adjacent area of the base 5 of the Landscape element 2 is then flush on the bearing surface 11 of the Landscape element 1.
  • Both elements 1, 2 are connected to each other. If the landscape element 2 is not with another illustrated landscape element is to be connected, then must accordingly a further locking element 21 over the base area 5 be swung out; otherwise the other two locking elements 21 pivoted into the cavity 18 of this element 2.
  • FIG. 12 As is only hinted at in Fig. 12, various types cannot be installed Landscape elements required locking openings 15 for Recording of trees or the like what is used by a stump 38 is indicated. Furthermore, different landscape elements can be used a base plate 39 are placed on its underside the locking elements 33 corresponding, not shown in the drawing Has latching elements which in corresponding locking openings 15th be snapped into place. For example, on such a base plate 39 Houses or the like be put on.
  • the landscape elements 1, 2, 3 as natural elements and the artificial Man-made elements, such as the base plate 39, consist of a relatively strong inelastic plastic.
  • the locking elements 21 on the other hand consist of a relatively elastic plastic.
