Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant l'assemblage des éléments d'un jeu de construction. The present invention relates to a device for assembling the elements of a construction set.
Parmi les nombreux jeux de construction sur le marché, il y a une catégorie composée d'éléments plans qui sont reliés entre eux par les bords soit par collage soit par
boulonnage et dans certains cas, les bords forment des charnibres pour permettre l'articulation d'un des éléments par rapport aux autres. L'inconvénient principal de ce type de jeux est que l'encombrement des éléments dans les plans dimensionnels différents, n'est pas le même, à cause d'un système d'assemblage qui décalle les plans d'alignement; ceci limite les possibilités d'utilisation.Among the many construction toys on the market, there is a category composed of planar elements which are connected to each other by the edges either by gluing or by
bolting and in some cases, the edges form hinges to allow articulation of one of the elements with respect to the others. The main drawback of this type of games is that the dimensions of the elements in the different dimensional planes are not the same, because of an assembly system which shifts the alignment planes; this limits the possibilities of use.
La figure 1 représente, en coupe perspective, le dispositif selon l'invention. Figure 1 shows, in perspective section, the device according to the invention.
La figure 2 représente, en coupe, des variantes du dispositif nécessaire pour l'assemblage de deux, trois et quatre éléments de construction. Figure 2 shows, in section, variants of the device necessary for the assembly of two, three and four construction elements.
La figure 3 représente, en coupe perspective, deux variantes de systèmes d'accrochage entre la baguette de liaison et les éléments de construction. FIG. 3 shows, in perspective section, two variants of attachment systems between the connecting rod and the construction elements.
La figure 4 représente, un schéma d'une trame tri-dimensionnelle montrant un exemple de l'encombrement des éléments de construction selon l'invention. FIG. 4 represents a diagram of a three-dimensional grid showing an example of the dimensions of the construction elements according to the invention.
La dispositif selon l'invention est composé d'une baguette de liaison (1) qui s'accroche aux bords des éléments de construction (2) par pression manuelle. La baguette de liaison (1) est constituée de deux ou plusieurs profilés (3) reliés entre eux
par une bande flexible (4).The device according to the invention is composed of a connecting rod (1) which hooks to the edges of the construction elements (2) by manual pressure. The connecting rod (1) consists of two or more sections (3) interconnected
by a flexible strip (4).
Les profilés (3) et les bords des éléments de construction (2) sont conçus pour s'accrocher ensemble. Le système d'accrochage suit le principe de formes mâles et femelles et la fixation des deux parties est assurée par la complémentarité de la forme du profilé avec celle du bord de l'élément de construction. La fabrication des baguettes de liaison et des éléments de construction est prévue en matière plastique pour que la partie femelle du dispositif peut se déformer quand la partie mâle est introduite et s'accrocher comme une pince dès que la forme de l'une épouse la forme de l'autre. Différents systèmes d'accrochage sont montrés dans la figure 1 et la figure 3. The profiles (3) and the edges of the building elements (2) are designed to hang together. The attachment system follows the principle of male and female shapes and the fixing of the two parts is ensured by the complementarity of the shape of the profile with that of the edge of the building element. The manufacture of the connecting rods and of the construction elements is provided in plastic material so that the female part of the device can deform when the male part is introduced and hang like a clamp as soon as the shape of one matches the shape the other. Different attachment systems are shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3.
Les baguettes de liaison peuvent être attachées sur une partie ou sur toute la longueur des bords des éléments de construction; donc, la même baguette de liaison peut servir pour l'assemblage des éléments de construction avec des bords de longueurs différents. II est entendu que tous les bords d'un élément de construction ont une forme compatible avec la baguette de liaison afin de permettre l'accrochage d'autres éléments sur tous ses bords, indifférement. The connecting rods can be attached over part or the entire length of the edges of the building elements; therefore, the same connecting rod can be used for assembling construction elements with edges of different lengths. It is understood that all the edges of a construction element have a shape compatible with the connecting rod in order to allow the attachment of other elements on all its edges, indifferently.
La bande flexible (4) peut servir comme charnière pour permettre les éléments de construction accrochés aux profilés de s'articuler autour de I' axe central de la baguette de liaison. The flexible strip (4) can serve as a hinge to allow the construction elements attached to the profiles to be articulated around the central axis of the connecting rod.
Une grande variété d'assemblages sont possibles avec peu de pièces différentes car les baguettes de liaison peuvent relier deux ou plusieurs éléments de construction de telle façon qu'ils restent dans le même plan, qu'ils suivent un plan incliné ou un plan perpendiculaire au plan du départ et leur encombrement est toujours
pareil; ce qui permet la continuité de la construction suivant une trame tri
dimensionnelle, voir figure 4. Par exemple, dans la construction d'une maquette de
bâtiment, les mêmes baguettes de liaison peuvent servir pour assembler les murs, les
plafonds, les toits inclinés et les planchers; en outre, des baguettes de liaison avec un
nombre de profilés différent, peuvent servir dans la même construction.A wide variety of assemblies are possible with few different parts because the connecting rods can connect two or more construction elements in such a way that they remain in the same plane, whether they follow an inclined plane or a plane perpendicular to the departure plan and their size is always
the same; which allows the continuity of the construction following a sorting frame
dimensional, see figure 4. For example, in the construction of a model of
building, the same connecting rods can be used to assemble the walls,
ceilings, pitched roofs and floors; in addition, connecting rods with a
different number of profiles, can be used in the same construction.
Le dispositif est destiné à des constructions légères, comme pour la décoration dans
des magasins ou des foires et particulièrement à des jeux de construction car il permet un
montage et un démontage rapide et à répétition. The device is intended for light constructions, as for decoration in
shops or fairs and particularly building games because it allows
quick and repetitive assembly and disassembly.
