Abstract

Rings of tetrahedral bodies are described in which each body has two opposed edges hinged to edges of respective tetrahedral bodies adjacent in the ring.
A body has two part-tetrahedral bodies separate or separable from other part-tetrahedral bodies with which respective tetrahedral bodies can be assembled. The two part-tetrahedral bodies are joined hingedly between edges corresponding to edges or part edges of the respective tetrahedral bodies.
In constructing a ring from such bodies, joins need to be made only between parts which do not move relative to one another, the hinge being already provided. The body including the hinge may be conveniently moulded in one piece from a suitable plastics material.
