Definitions
- the invention relates to a toy building set according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
- LIS 3 005 282 describes a toy building block set of this type, which is known worldwide under the name or brand “Lego”.
- the base plate has a rectangular cross-section, whereby the variations are nevertheless limited in a certain way despite a large number of building possibilities.
- the object of the invention is to create a toy building set that is new and modified from the known toy building set with the shape of the individual building blocks deviating from the rectangular shape.
- a toy building set according to the characterizing part of patent claim 1 serves to solve this problem.
- the core idea of the invention consists in attaching a stiffening ring lying against the inner sides of the secondary projections to the underside of a plate.
- a hexagonal base plate is to be used as the original form for a building block, and further building blocks are provided which have been created by symmetrically axially dividing the hexagonal base plate in the middle between adjacent primary and secondary projections.
- the further building blocks contain such building blocks which have been created by dividing in the middle between opposite corner points of the hexagonal plate.
- a further preferred embodiment is that the further building blocks contain such building blocks which have been created by dividing a basic hexagonal plate into six parts in a symmetrical manner similar to a piece of cake.
- the further building blocks contain such building blocks which have been produced by symmetrically dividing the base hexagonal plate into three sections, each with two primary and secondary projections.
- the other building blocks can preferably contain such building blocks that contain at least two parts lined up next to one another as a unit.
- the further building blocks can contain such building blocks which are composed as a unit of a hexagonal building block according to claim 1 and a building block according to claim 2.
- the toy building set of the present invention preferably includes a base plate provided on its top with primary pegs distributed in a hexagonal configuration.
- a secondary projection can be mounted centrally on the underside of the plate, the inner diameter of which has a diameter adapted to the outer diameter of the primary projection for plugging onto a primary projection.
- FIG. 1 shows an isometric representation of a building block according to the invention on an enlarged scale
- Figure 2 shows a side view of the building block
- FIG. 3 shows a plan view of the building block according to the invention
- FIG. 4 shows a bottom view of the building block according to the invention
- FIG. 5 shows a top view of three building block set base plates assembled next to one another with various further building block elements identified by thick lines;
- FIG. 6 shows a plan view of a further building block element according to patent claim 4;
- FIG. 7 shows a bottom view of the building block element shown in FIG.
- the original form of the building block according to the invention contains an equilateral hexagonal base plate 1, on the upper side of which six circular primary projections 3 are attached.
- the primary projections 3 are at a distance from the side edges in the middle of these.
- six secondary projections 4 are attached to the underside of the base plate, each of which faces the corner points of the hexagonal base plate and is spaced apart from the side walls 2 .
- the secondary projections 4 are attached at a distance from the inner sides of the side walls 2 in such a way that the primary projections 3 can be pressed between the secondary projections 4 and the side walls 2 in a clamping manner.
- FIG. 5 shows three base plates 7 connected to one another by means of a hexagonal building block as a base plate for attaching the building blocks according to the invention.
- various exemplary embodiments of the further building blocks (a)-(i) are represented by lines that have been printed out with greater emphasis.
- the primary projections 3 can, for example, have a diameter of 4.8 mm and an axial distance from one another of 8 mm.
- the inside diameter of the secondary projection 6 is adapted to the diameter of the primary projection 3 in order to accommodate a primary projection 3 .
- a height of 11.4 mm, for example, is proposed as the total height of a building block, with a height of the primary projections 3 of the order of magnitude of 1.8 mm.
- the building blocks and the base plates are preferably made of a slightly elastically deformable plastic, e.g. based on EPS or EPE.
