Description

The present invention relates to an aggregate of blocks such as trees, and more particularly to an aggregate of blocks that are sewn so as to have a spread with a thread or string.
The block assembly of the present invention can be used as interior decorations such as joinery (shoulder shoji, bran, etc.), partitions, screens, folding screens, rails, chairs, etc., and wall hangings, vases, and other rugs Can be suitably used.

  Conventionally, there are linear design aggregates (for example, ball goodwill or the like) in which holes are made in blocks such as wood and gathered through strings or the like. However, not only the three-dimensionally shaped blocks are gathered linearly in one direction with strings etc., but also gathered together with strings etc. so as to expand in the horizontal direction and at the same time have a design effect I can't find my body. In addition, although there exist what was fixed with a braided tree, a nail, an adhesive agent, etc. from the past, it is completely different from the present invention.

  Of course, there is a bead knitting that uses three-dimensional bead balls and is knitted in a planar shape with yarn etc., but this is done by first arranging warp yarns at a predetermined interval, and then having one through hole in the center. Pass the weft thread through a large number of beads (the same number as the space between the warp threads), press each bead ball so that it is located between the warp threads, fold back the weft thread at the warp thread at the side end, and again penetrate each bead ball. The first stage is completed when weft is passed through the hole. That is, the weft thread inserted into the through hole of each bead ball is folded back at the warp portion at the side end and inserted again so that it is doubled in the through hole, and the warp thread is doubled between adjacent bead balls. Each bead ball cannot move from the place because it is sandwiched between the wefts. Repeat this to complete bead knitting. It is mainly used to make ornaments such as personal items and handicrafts.

In addition, there are triangular knitting that progresses while knitting while forming a triangle with three cylindrical bamboo beads, and net knitting that progresses so that the row of beads passed through the thread becomes a net shape. There is only one through hole, and when the rows of bead balls are connected to the side, the yarn is doubly passed through one through hole at the contact point of both.
As described above, the bead knitting and the like are greatly different from the block aggregate of the present invention in the knitting method and weaving method, the shape of the bead ball, the state of the gap (space portion) in the knitted state, the purpose of use, and the like. Therefore, it does not give any suggestion in devising the block aggregate of the present invention that constitutes a decorative member such as a joinery or a fixture used indoors or a design ornament.

  The problem to be solved is to construct a block aggregate in which a large number of blocks such as trees are expanded and connected together so as to be able to do so. Conventionally, there has been no such block aggregate or something similar thereto, and the present invention seeks to solve this.

  The present invention has been made in the background of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a block aggregate configured to have a spread by stitching together blocks such as wood with a string or the like. is there.

The present invention made to achieve the above object is configured as follows.
A thread, string, and other first linear material that can be bent arranged at predetermined intervals in the direction of a predetermined inclination angle that rises to the right, and the inclination angle is the same as that of the first linear material, and the direction of the inclination angle is right A block assembly in which three-dimensional blocks are arranged at intersections with yarns, strings, or other bendable second linear members arranged at a predetermined interval in the descending direction, and the blocks have a square cross section in the horizontal direction or A through-hole that is substantially square and has a predetermined height and through which the first linear material and the second linear material can be inserted is formed on both diagonal lines of the block itself at the middle of the height , The through-hole is formed by providing one groove with a predetermined depth in the diagonal direction on one side of two members having a block height divided by two, and joining the two members so that the grooves intersect. respectively Rutotomoni both through holes done by configuring the block Te First and with chosen sewing second linear material inserted through the fact by both linear member intersection wire material to the state each block adjacent contacting each diagonal between such blocks are located in A block aggregate.
B Threads, strings and other bendable first linear materials arranged at predetermined intervals in the horizontal direction, and Threads, strings and other bendable second linear materials arranged at predetermined intervals in the vertical direction A block assembly in which three-dimensional blocks are arranged at the intersections of the blocks, the horizontal cross section of which is a rhombus or a substantially square with the same length of all four sides, and has a predetermined height, and the middle of the height Are formed on the diagonal lines of the block itself so that the first and second linear members can be inserted therethrough, and the formation of the two through holes is divided into two block heights. of one side to provide a single groove having a predetermined depth in a diagonal direction, respectively, and first, respectively conducted Rutotomoni both through holes by the two grooves constituting the block by joining the two members so as to intersect By inserting the second linear material, at the intersection of both linear materials Lock manner the blocks adjacent the block assembly comprising been chosen sewing linear member in a state where each of the diagonal between contact positions.
In block assembly of C A section or B section, wherein the yarn, cord and other first wire material of bendable and instead of the second linear member using a wire material having a wire other rigid blocks A block assembly that is inserted into the through hole.
The block aggregate according to any one of items D A to C, wherein each block has at least a chamfered or rounded corner portion in contact with each other between adjacent blocks.
Here, the intersection of the first linear material and the second linear material is not limited to the case where the two linear materials are in contact with each other, but also includes the case where they are not in contact but intersect in the projection view.

  The block aggregate of the present invention is (1) a structural and decorative form that has not been seen so far, and has the effect of giving a good impression (a hobby) to the viewer. (2) Since a string is inserted through the through-holes of each block and connected to each other to expand, it is possible to feel the possibility of moderate deflection when touching or looking at the body. There is an effect that gives a special hobby feeling different from that fixed and fixed to. (3) Further, when a string or the like is inserted into the through-holes provided in the diagonal directions of each square block and stitched together, the blocks are connected at the corners and the square gap between the blocks is equal. Since it appears every other place, it has the effect of giving a hobby as if it were a block net. (4) Furthermore, the contrast between the block and the gap gives a favorable impression. (5) Changing the aspect ratio of the rectangular block changes the shape of the gap as well as the block, giving a different impression (hobby). (6) Furthermore, if the number of blocks to be used is increased or decreased, the size and shape of the block aggregate can be adjusted / adjusted according to the objects and places to be used.

  In FIG. 1, reference numeral 10 denotes a frame, and a block aggregate 14 composed of a large number of blocks 12 is arranged inside the frame. The frame 10 has a string 16 as a first linear member folded and stretched in each step in the horizontal direction, and a second linear member folded and stretched in each column in the vertical direction. The string 18 is inserted vertically and horizontally into the through-holes of the numerous blocks 12 so that the blocks 12 are positioned at the intersections of the string 16 and the string 18, respectively.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the block 12 is a rectangular parallelepiped having the same vertical and horizontal length and a predetermined height, and through holes 20 and 22 are formed in both diagonal directions in the middle portion of the height. 18 can be inserted. As shown in FIG. 2B, the through holes 20 and 22 appear to intersect when viewed from the upper surface of the block, but are shifted up and down so as not to interfere directly. In this case, the vertical displacement at the intersection of the two through holes may be such that the outsides of the inserted strings 16 and 18 are in contact with each other. There is an advantage that it is easy to insert because the vicinity of the center of the string does not interfere when the string is inserted. In addition, there is a difficulty in that the gap between the string and the string is difficult to pass when the strings cross each other, but the through hole is made large so that both the through holes intersect at the same height position. May be. Since the block 12 is made of wood, the appearance and hitting of the body are soft and the hobby is excellent. It is also possible to use other materials such as plastic.

  In addition, each ridge line portion of the block 12 is chamfered. Chamfering eliminates fluttering and flashing and gives an elegant feeling, but the ridge line portion where the openings of the through holes 20 and 22 are located is particularly essential. This facilitates drilling by flattening the entrance portion of the through hole, and also eliminates or minimizes the gap between adjacent blocks when assembling the block so that the strings 16 and 18 are visible from the gap. effective. The size of the block aggregate 14 can be appropriately changed by adjusting the number of blocks 12 in the vertical direction, the horizontal direction, or both directions. Of course, it is necessary to change the size of the frame 10.

FIGS. 3 (a) and 3 (b) show, as a modified example of the block 12, a part that can be provided with a through hole without using a drill or the like. That is, the grooves 28 and 30 are provided in the diagonal directions on the end faces of the half blocks 24 and 26 whose height is half the height of the block 12, respectively. If the end faces of both half blocks are bonded in the direction in which the grooves intersect, a block in which the through holes intersect is completed.

FIG. 4 shows an example in which a block assembly 33 configured like the block assembly 14 is arranged on the backrest portion of the chair 32. Instead of the frame 10, members on both sides of the backrest and upper and lower members are used.

5 (a) to 5 (e) are examples in which block assemblies 44, 46, 48, 50, and 52, which are configured in the same manner as in the above-described embodiment, are arranged on the partition 34, the space 36, the partitions 38 and 40, and the waist plate shoji 42, respectively. Indicates. In both cases, the upper and lower members are used instead of the frame. Of course, a block aggregate with a frame can be fitted and attached.
Both are wooden blocks, and because they use net-like block aggregates sewn together with strings, the contrast between the blocks of the block aggregate and the gaps (spaces) gives a good feeling to the viewer. In addition, it is sewn with a string, so when touching the body, it feels different from the touch when touching a rigid body or solid, and the wooden blocks are gentle to the eyes as well as touching with hands, so these are Combined with this, there is an effect that makes you feel a pleasant hobby like never before.

6 and 7 are schematic explanatory views (conceptual diagrams) showing another embodiment of the present invention. A finely hatched portion indicates a block. The description of the parts that are the same as those in the above embodiment and do not need to be changed will be omitted. The block aggregate 54 shown in FIG. 6 is obtained by increasing the distance between the vertical strings 58 than the distance between the horizontal strings 56 and making the block 60 into a horizontally long rhombus. In contrast, the block aggregate 64 shown in FIG. 7 has a configuration in which the distance between the vertical strings 68 is narrower than the distance between the horizontal strings 66 and the block 70 is formed into a vertically long rhombus. Both of them give a hobby feeling similar to that of the above embodiment to the viewer, but the former gives a sense of stability and the latter gives a smart feeling.

8 and 9 are schematic explanatory views (conceptual diagrams) showing still another embodiment of the present invention. A finely hatched portion indicates a block. The description of the parts that are the same as those in the above embodiment and do not need to be changed will be omitted. Block assembly 72 shown in FIG. 8, a cord 74 which is inclined right downward at predetermined intervals, a right upward direction of inclination is opposite the same inclination angle between the cord 74 and the spacing, Horizontal the intersection of the straps 76 A rectangular parallelepiped block 78 is arranged. The block aggregate 80 shown in FIG. 9 is the same as the block aggregate 72 in FIG. 8 in that a rectangular parallelepiped block 86 is disposed at the intersection of the string 82 inclined downward and the string 84 inclined upward . The cords 82 and 84 are different in that the inclination angle is further increased and the block 86 is a vertically long rectangular parallelepiped. In addition, the through-hole for inserting the string (linear material) of each block 78 and 86 is formed in the both diagonal directions in the intermediate part of the height of each block.

In each of the above embodiments, the block is made of wood, but it is also possible to use a material having moldability, for example, synthetic resin, rubber, metal or the like. Further, it is also possible to use a flexible linear material such as a thread, a nylon thread, a flexible wire or a wire instead of the string. Further, when it is not necessary to bend the block aggregate, for example, a rigid wire or the like can be used instead of a string or the like in a space provided outside the reach of the block.
Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to such embodiments, and it goes without saying that various implementations can be made without changing the gist of the present invention.

  The block assembly of the present invention can be used as interior decorations such as joinery (shoulder shoji, bran, etc.), partitions, screens, folding screens, balustrades, chairs, etc. Can be suitably used. In addition, the first linear member that is folded back and stretched in each step in the horizontal direction for insertion into the block without providing a frame around the block aggregate is tied at each adjacent folding point. Etc., and the second linear material that is folded and stretched in each column in the vertical direction is tied with a string or the like at each adjacent folding point so that the shape of the block aggregate can be maintained. For example, there is an advantage that, for example, if it is laid around a flower bed, it can be used as a decoration and footwear does not get dirty. Thus, it can be used suitably also as what is called an exterior used outdoors.
