Definitions
- the present invention relates to a three-dimensional block assembled by coupling a plurality of block plates together through joints.
- JP patent 3221637 the applicant has proposed an assembled block comprising square block plates and equilateral triangular block plates that are coupled together through joints.
- the block plates and the joints of this block are formed by molding a rigid plastic. Joints are each formed with plugs protruding in at least two directions. Each block plate has receptacles each formed along one of the edges thereof for accepting one of the plugs of the joints.
- Different kinds of joints are prepared, i.e. ones having their plugs protruding in two directions in a common plane, ones having their plugs protruding in two directions perpendicular to each other, ones having their plugs protruding in three directions perpendicular to each other, and ones having plugs arranged so that the distances between the proximal ends of the adjacent plugs are different from each other.
- the angle between block plates coupled together by a joint and the number of block plates usable are determined by the types of joints used. Thus, even if a large number of different types of joints are prepared, the final shape of the block assembled is severely restricted.
- both the block plates and joints have to be manufactured with narrow dimensional tolerances.
- strict dimensional control of the joints and block plates is required, which results in an increase in the manufacturing cost.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a block which can be easily assembled into a large variety of shapes and sizes using a smaller number of kinds of joints at a low cost.
- an assembled block comprising equilateral triangular block plates, square block plates, and joints through which the block plates are coupled together, each of the joints being formed of a single, flexible and bendable plate having wing portions on both sides thereof, the block plates being made of a flexible material and having edges and receptacles each provided along one of the edges for accepting one of the wing portions of the joints, the receptacles being each formed with a guide pocket, whereby any two of the block plates can be coupled together through any of the joints by inserting the respective wing portions of the joint into one of the receptacles of one of the two block plates through the corresponding guide pocket and into one of the receptacles of the other of the two block plates through the corresponding guide pocket.
- a plurality of the joints can be inserted simultaneously into any of the receptacles of any of the block plates with each joint superposed on the others.
- the assembled block further comprises an arrangement for preventing any of the wing portions from slipping out of any of the receptacles once the former is inserted in the latter.
- each of the block plates comprises two base plates superposed one on the other, the receptacles being defined between the two base plates.
- each of the block plate comprises a base plate and extensions each extending from and folded along one of the edges so as to be superposed on one side of the base plate, the receptacles being defined by cuts each formed along one of the edges.
- Figs. 1 to 24 show the embodiment comprising plastic plates.
- the assembled block of this embodiment comprises block plates 1 as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, and joints 2 as shown in Figs. 3 to 5.
- the block plates 1 comprise square ones as shown in Fig. 1 and equilateral triangular ones as shown in Fig. 2. All the block plates 1 have edges of equal length and are equal in thickness too.
- the block plates 1 shown in Figs. 1 and 2 are formed by laminating two flexible plastic base plates 3 (upper and lower plates 3).
- the two base plates 3 are joined together by e.g. fusing them at joint portions 4 at the corners.
- each edge of the upper base plate 3 is cut out at its central portion to form an arcuately concave guide pocket 6.
- a protrusion 9 is formed by removing the inner half of a bulge having a semi-oval section and protruding toward the upper base plate 3.
- the upper base plate 3 is formed with a bulge 11 protruding away from the lower base plate 3 to define a space in which the protrusion 9 is received.
- any of the joints 2 shown in Figs. 3 to 5 comprises a single plastic plate which is more flexible than the base plates 3 forming the block plates 1 and can be deflected or otherwise bent.
- Each joint 2 has chevron-shaped wings 8 on both sides thereof.
- Each wing 8 has a hole 7 near its apex.
- the hole 7 has an arcuately convex edge near the apex of the wing 8.
- the one shown in Fig. 3 is the basic type, the one shown in Fig. 4 differs from the one in Fig. 3 only in that its right-hand side portion is bent at an angle of 120 degrees with respect to its left-hand side portion along its longitudinal centerline 10.
- the one shown in Fig. 5 has a greater width than the one shown in Fig. 3.
- the protrusion 9 engages in the hole 7 as shown in Figs. 7 and 8, thus preventing the wing 8 from slipping out of the receptacle 5.
- the arcuately convex edge of the hole 7 positively engages the protrusion 9, thus positively preventing the protrusion 9 from coming out of the hole 7.
- the other wing 8 is then inserted in the other block plate 1 in the manner as described above to couple the two block plates 1 together through the joint 2 as shown in Figs. 9 and 10.
- the block plates 1 can be positioned so as to form any desired angle relative to each other.
- three or more equilateral triangular block plates can be coupled together through two or more joints 2.
- the block plates 1 can be arranged in skewed relation to each other.
- two or more joints 2 may be inserted into a single receptacle 5 of a single block plate 1 with the other wings 8 of these joints 2 inserted in other block plates 1.
- two block plates 1 may be coupled together not through a single joint 2 but through a plurality of joints 2 to more positively prevent the wings 8 from slipping out of the receptacles 5, thereby more stably keeping the block plates 1 coupled together.
- any desired number of square and equilateral triangular block plates 1 can be coupled together so as to be arranged at any desired angles with each other as shown in Fig. 14.
- the block plates 1 and joints 2 may be transparent or colored or may be designed in any desired manner.
- aligned through holes 7 are formed in the two base plates 3 of each block plate 1 near each edge thereof as shown in Figs. 15 and 16.
- a triangular pyramid-shaped protrusion 9 is formed on each wing 8 of each joint 2 by striking the joint 2 from below so that when one of the wings 8 of the joint 2 is inserted into one of the receptacle 5 of the block plate 1, the protrusion 9 of the joint 2 will engage in the hole 7 of the block plate 1 as shown in Figs. 20 to 22.
- the two base plates 3 forming the block plate 1 may be joined together at a joint portion 4 provided at the central portion of the block plate 1.
- a joint portion 4 is preferably shaped such that when a wing 8 of a joint 2 is inserted into the block plate 1, its apex is guided along its edge and fits snugly in the recess defined by the edge of the joint portion 4 as shown.
- Figs. 25 to 35 show the embodiment of which the block plates and the joints are both made of a metal.
- elements corresponding to the elements of the first embodiment are denoted by identical numerals.
- the assembled block of this embodiment comprises block plates 1 as shown in Figs. 25 and 26, and joints 2 as shown in Figs. 27 to 29.
- the block plates and the joints are both formed by blanking stainless steel or aluminum plates and pressing the thus blanked plates.
- the block plates 1 comprise square ones as shown in Fig. 25, and equilateral triangular ones as shown in Fig. 26. All the block plates 1 have edges of equal length and are equal in thickness too.
- Each block plate 1 comprises a base plate 4 having an extension 12 extending from each edge of the base plate 4 and folded along a fold line so as to be superposed on one side of the base plate 3.
- a cut is formed along the fold line as a receptacle 5 through which the joint 2 can be inserted into the block plate 1.
- a guide pocket 6 is formed by expanding the base plate 3 and the extension 12 away from each other.
- Semicircular holes 7 are formed in the base plate 3 so that their diameters are in juxtaposition with the respective arcuate edges of the extensions 12.
- Each of the joints 2 shown in Figs. 27 to 29 comprises a single metallic sheet formed with wings 8 on both sides.
- the wings 8 have their free ends rounded. Near the rounded free end of each wing 8, a protrusion 9 is formed by removing the inner half of a bulge having a semioval section. Inwardly of the protrusion 9, a through hole 13 is formed.
- the one shown in Fig. 27 is the basic type.
- the one shown in Fig. 28 has a greater width than the one shown in Fig. 27.
- the one shown in Fig. 29 differs from the one in Fig. 27 only in that its right-hand side portion is bent at an angle of 90 degrees with respect to its left-hand side portion along its longitudinal centerline 10.
- one of the wings 8 of the joint 2 is inserted into one of the block plates 1 through one of its receptacles 5.
- the wing 8 may be inserted into the receptacle with its protrusion 9 facing either the extension 12 of the block plate 1 or its base plate 3.
- the protrusion 9 engages the edge of the extension 12 if the protrusion 9 faces the extension 12, as shown in Figs. 31 and 32. If the protrusion 9 faces the base plate 3, the protrusion 9 will engage the edge of the hole 7. In either case, the wing 8 is positively prevented from slipping out of the receptacle 5.
- the other wing 8 is then inserted in the other block plate 1 in the manner as described above to couple the two block plates 1 together through the joint 2 as shown in Fig. 33.
- the block plates 1 can be positioned so as to form any desired angle relative to each other.
- two or more joints 2 may be inserted into a single receptacle 5 of a single block plate 1 with the other wings 8 of these joints 2 inserted in other block plates 1. If it is desired to couple two block plates 1 together so that they form an angle of 90 degrees with respect to each other, they should be coupled together through the joint 2 shown in Fig. 29.
- any desired number of square and equilateral triangular block plates 1 can be coupled together so as to be arranged at any desired angles with each other as shown in Fig. 35.
- the block thus formed has an inorganic feel inherent to metallic objects. If it is desired to couple two block plates 1 so as to be widely spaced from each other, they should be coupled together using the wide joint 2 shown in Fig. 28.
- a plate-shaped tool having protrusions on both sides are inserted into the receptacle 5 to push up the extension 12 or the base plate 3 from its back with one of the protrusions on the plate-shaped tool until the extension 12 or the base plate 3 is sufficiently deflected. Then the joint 1 is pulled slightly to disengage the protrusion 9, and the wing 8 is pulled out of the receptacle 5.
- Figs. 36 and 37 show an example in which the assembled block according to the present invention is used as a component of a building structure.
- each block plate 1 comprises two relatively thick plastic or metallic base plates 3 superposed one on another.
- One of the base plates 3 is formed with a threaded hole 14a at each corner thereof.
- the other of the base plates 3 is formed with a through hole 14b at each corner thereof.
