Definitions

  • the invention relates to a dove-shaped building block, and more particularly to a building block that utilizes a dovetailed recess and a dovetailed projection to engage two block bodies of the building blocks.
  • Building blocks are one of the toys that have the greatest number of types. They are often in the forms of blocks of different geometric shapes and allow for stacking in different directions. Projections and recesses are formed on/in these building blocks to allow them to joint to each other through mating between the projections and the recesses.
  • LEGO® blocks of which the feature is that a single square area is taken as a basic unit based on which expansion is made to a cube or a rectangular parallelepiped having an enlarged surface area or size. Projections (as well as counterpart recesses) are formed on the cube or the rectangular parallelepiped for jointing the blocks in a given (longitudinal) direction.
  • the LEGO® blocks need adjustment of directions for 90, 180, or 270 degrees to complete the assembly of a large-sized or curved structure.
  • special accessories may be necessary for such an assembly.
  • the LEGO® blocks are designed to achieve a mating engagement between two blocks that is generally over tight, often resulting in difficulty in disassembling the blocks and requiring a large force to achieve so. This may lead to damage to the blocks. It is also known that disassembling tools are available for such disassembling operations.
  • EP 0783908 A1 disclosed a toy building block puzzle having multiple side surfaces each being formed with either a lug or a slot.
  • these two dove-shaped building blocks can be fixedly engaged in a cross manner.
  • the dove-shaped building block mainly includes a block body.
  • the block body shaped as a polygon, has a plurality of side surfaces alternately arranged with a dovetailed recess and a dovetailed projection. Further, a top surface and a bottom surface of the block body include respectively a post and a cavity for pairing the post.
  • the stacking of the building blocks in either the longitudinal direction or the transverse direction can present convenience and stability in both assembly and disassembly of the building blocks.
  • the top surface of the block body has a post, while the bottom surface of the block body has a cavity corresponding to the post in areas.
  • the block bodies While in connecting a plurality of block bodies longitudinally, the block bodies can be connected in the longitudinal direction through the engagement of the post of one block body and the cavity of another block body. Thereupon, the plurality of the block bodies can be firmly connected so as to form a desired three-dimensional configuration.
  • a thickness of the dovetailed projection of the dove-shaped building block is largely equal to the inner space provided by the dovetailed recess, such that the two dove-shaped building blocks can be firmly connected in a cross manner and thereby versatile combinations of the dove-shaped building blocks can be achieved.
  • FIGS. 9 - 12 are embodiments of the invention according to the main claim.
  • Figures 6 - 8 show features and structures of specific embodiments according to the dependent claims 6 and 3.
  • Figures 1 - 5 are useful for the understanding of the invention.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a dove-shaped building block which is helpful for understanding a basic structure of the building block
  • FIG.2 is a perspective view showing a regular connection of the dove-shaped building blocks of FIG.1
  • FIG.2A is a perspective view showing the dove-shaped building blocks of FIG.1 joined through the regulation connection
  • FIG.3 is a perspective view showing a rotated connection of the dove-shaped building blocks of FIG.1
  • FIG.3A is a perspective view showing the dove-shaped building blocks of FIG.1 joined through the rotated connection
  • FIG.4 is a perspective view showing a reversed connection of the dove-shaped building blocks of FIG.
  • FIG.4A is a perspective view showing the dove-shaped building blocks of FIG. 1 joined through the reversed connection.
  • the dove-shaped building block includes a block body 1 shaped like a regular polygon configuration having even-numbered sides, for example but not limited to: regular hexagonal configuration, regular octagonal configuration, or other regular polygon configuration having even-numbered sides more than six sides.
  • the invention takes the regular hexagonal configuration as the best embodiment of the block body 1, because the hexagonal configuration is a typical shape for allowing connection of two block bodies without a gap in between.
  • the dove-shaped building block of the invention includes a block body 1 that has a regular hexagonal configuration having a top surface, a bottom surface opposite to the top surface, and six side surfaces 13, in which dovetailed recesses 11 and dovetailed projections 12 are alternately formed so that the side surfaces 13 respectively exhibit projecting and recessing configurations.
  • the alternate arrangement adopted here is to have the dovetailed recesses 11 and the dovetailed projections 12 on the side surfaces 13 equal in number to each other.
  • the hexagonal configuration or shape provides each side surface with an adjustment angle A1 of 60 degrees (that is, when rotating the block body 1 about a central axial line vertically penetrating through the center of the block body 1, a side surface of the block body 1 will be rotated to another neighboring side surface per 60 degrees of rotation, and there will be 360 degrees in total to rotate that side surface six times to go back its original position) so that rotated connection can be achieved with such a block body 1 for joining with an assembled structure of block bodies of the present invention to provide a three-dimensional configuration having a desired curve B.
  • the block body 1 has a top surface on which a post 14 is formed, and a bottom surface in which an open cavity 15 is formed to correspond in shape and position to the post 14.
  • the post 14 of one block body 1 may be fit into and in retaining engagement with the cavity 15 of another block body 1 so that the block bodies 1 may be joined in a longitudinal direction, allowing multiple block bodies 1 to be connected together to provide a secured and stable three-dimensional configuration.
  • FIGS.3 and 3A six block bodies 1 are connected in a stacked manner, so as to form a two-level three-dimensional configuration, in which the separate block body 1 that is shown in phantom lines can be connected to the assembled structure of the remaining block bodies through mating engagement between the post 14 and the cavity 15.
  • angular adjustment can proceed with 60 degrees for each step.
  • FIGS.4 and 4A six block bodies 1 are connected in a stacked manner, so as to form a two-level three-dimensional configuration. Due to the mutual retaining engagement achievable between the dovetailed recess 11 and the dovetailed projection 12, a phantom-line block body 1 is connectable to an assembled structure of block bodies 1 in a reversed manner.
  • FIG.5 shows examples of the block body in the form of a regular hexagonal block, a regular octagonal block, a regular decagonal block, and a regular dodecagonal block, respectively, to each of which the process of joining and stacking described above is applicable.
  • the height of the block body 1, the post 14 and the cavity 15, and a through bore 17 may be changed and increased/decreased as desired for practical needs, allowing for more diverse ways of assembling or joining.
  • the present invention allows for normal transverse and longitudinal connection, rotated connection, and reversed connection, which can be alternately and/or additionally used for joining the building blocks so that versatile variability of the block body 1 according to the present invention may be achieved, and flexibility of assembling the block bodies 1 for building unique three-dimensional structures may also be provided.

  • one or each of the dovetailed projections 12 of one block body 1 may be provided an upper inclination facet 121 and a lower inclination facet 122 respectively on an upper end and a lower end thereof in the axial direction.
  • the two inclination facets 121, 122 are substantially parallel.
  • an angle of 60 or 90 degrees is taken as an example for illustration, but the present invention is not limited to such angles.
  • the upper inclination facet 121 of a lower block body 1 is closely position-able against the lower inclination facet 122 of an upper block body 1 so that the block bodies 1 exhibit a connected configuration.
  • the upper inclination facet 121 of the block body 1 is posed at a 60-degree inclination
