[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention generally relates to assembly materials and methods for assembling the same, and in particular to assembly base materials such as wooden materials for construction and interior design products, and their assembly. This is an intermediate method.

In particular, it is a small block made of wood or the like that can be easily lifted by hand, and is used as an interlocking block and its assembly method, which can be assembled together to create a corner or wall for interior design. be.

Furthermore, it provides an engaging block that can be used to construct a large structure such as a mountain hut or storage room, or to extend a house by adding more rooms, and a method for assembling the same.

Because it is made by combining various materials, it has special abilities in mending and other things that ordinary people cannot easily do.

On the other hand, since buildings are generally made of a wide variety of materials, it is impossible for an amateur to construct not only a house but also a simple partition. Furthermore, not only logs but also pillars and beams are too heavy for an amateur to handle alone.

[Conventional technology] There are currently a variety of materials for interior design.

Products are then created by combining these various materials in various ways.

Buildings are made of a variety of materials including wood, and are constructed by assembling various materials such as columns, beams, walls, and panels. On the other hand, with simplified materials like a log cabin,
There are also some very prestigious buildings.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, there are many types of interior design products. This simplifies the process by using a block and a connecting rod that connects multiple blocks.

Below, the specific structure of the engagement block and its assembly method according to the present invention will be explained in detail.

First, the configuration of the first invention will be described. The present invention relates to an engagement block, and first, there are a plurality of blocks. Each of these blocks has a plurality of identical vertical holes for connecting rods. and a plurality of connecting rods, the plurality of connecting rods fitting into the above-mentioned vertical holes for connecting rods and having a plurality of lengths.

Next, the configuration of the second invention will be described. The present invention is an engagement block, and first, there are a plurality of thin blocks. Each of these thin blocks has a plurality of identical vertical holes for connecting rods. Next, there are multiple thick blocks.

Each of these thick blocks has a plurality of identical vertical holes for connecting rods. and a plurality of connecting rods, the plurality of connecting rods fitting into the above-mentioned vertical holes for connecting rods and having a plurality of lengths.

Then, the configuration of the third invention will be described. The present invention is a method for assembling a connecting block. First, a plurality of blocks each having the same vertical hole for a plurality of connecting rods are arranged side by side. Next, the horizontally arranged layers of the block are stacked one by one or each layer in a zigzag manner to the left and right, and a plurality of connecting rods having a plurality of lengths are fitted into the vertical holes for the connecting rods. This will cause the connecting positions of the connecting rods to shift alternately.

Finally, the configuration of the fourth invention will be described. The present invention relates to an engaging block and a method for raising the same. First, the engaging block according to the first and second inventions is characterized in that the block is polygonal.

Further, in the third aspect of the invention, there is provided a method for assembling an engagement block, characterized in that the block is polygonal.

[Function] Since the engaging block and the method for assembling the same according to the present invention are configured as described above, the following effects occur.

First, the operation of the first invention will be described. The present invention is an engagement block, in which a plurality of blocks each have a plurality of layers of the same vertical holes for connecting rods, and a plurality of connecting rods having a plurality of lengths are connected to the vertical holes for connecting rods. The blocks can be engaged alternately by fitting into the blocks.

Next, the operation of the second invention will be described. The present invention relates to an engagement block, which is first used as a base material for a block on which a plurality of thin blocks are assembled. Due to its small thickness, it can be nailed to a base, for example a floor. A plurality of thick blocks each have a plurality of layers of the same vertical holes for connecting rods, and a plurality of connecting rods of a plurality of lengths fit into the vertical holes for connecting rods to form a thin block. Each successive layer of thick blocks can be engaged with each other alternately.

Then, the operation of the third invention will be described. The present invention is a method for assembling engagement blocks, in which a plurality of blocks each having the same vertical hole for a plurality of connecting rods are arranged side by side. Next, the horizontal layer of these blocks is 1
Layer or layers are stacked in a zigzag pattern from side to side. At this time, since a plurality of connecting rods having a plurality of lengths are fitted into the vertical hole for the connecting rod, the connecting positions of the connecting rods are alternately shifted and the blocks are systematically engaged. .

Finally, the operation of the fourth invention will be described. This invention relates to an engaging block and a method for assembling the same. Firstly, in the first and second inventions, since the blocks are polygonal, when they are engaged, there is unevenness on the surface. It becomes an engaging block that creates a pattern.

Also, in the third invention, since the blocks are polygonal, the method of assembling the blocks creates an uneven pattern on the surface when they are engaged.

[Example] Hereinafter, an engagement block and an assembly method thereof according to the present invention will be described in detail using an example thereof with reference to the accompanying drawings.

17 shows a perspective view of an embodiment of a block for an engagement block according to the present invention.

First, there are a plurality of wooden blocks 10. These wooden blocks 10 each have two identical vertical holes 11.11 for the connecting rods 20. The wooden block 10 may be made of a single piece of wood, but may also be made of a plurality of boards stacked and pressed together like plywood, or made of pieces of wood such as thin branches tied together and pressed together.

FIGS. 2A to 2G show perspective views of respective embodiments of the connecting rod, which is one of the engaging means. Therefore, as shown in the figure, there are a plurality of connecting rods 21-29. The plurality of wooden or metal connecting rods 21 to 29 fit into the vertical holes 11° 11 for the connecting rods 20, as shown in the partially omitted front sectional view shown in FIG. Consists of multiple lengths.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, this connecting rod is a foundation connecting rod 21 with a nail 21a and a length half the height of the block.
Then, connect the connecting rod 22 with the same length as the height of the block.
was used.

Both of these are made of metal, and in order to strengthen the connection with the block, vertical fins are provided in several places as shown in the figure. A connecting rod 23, which is half the height of the block and can be used to fill holes without nails, is installed on the top of the block. However, if a large number of these are stacked and connected, a deviation will occur in their lengths. In preparation for such a case, it is preferable to use a connecting rod 24 that is an extremely short blind stopper in place of the above-mentioned hole-filling connecting rod. It should be noted that not only the above-mentioned connecting rods but also the connecting rods of the embodiments to be described later may be easily inserted into the vertical hole of the block 10 by providing a taper at the tip thereof.

Therefore, if the lowest layer of the blocks 10 is a thin block, when this block is installed on a wooden floor, the block can be directly nailed to the floor, making the installation sturdy. Then, you can stack thick blocks on top of it. Further, in the above embodiment, the above connecting rods 21 and 22 have a length for the first stage of blocks 100, but
This can be made long enough to pass through 2, 3, and several stages (including fractional stages such as 2.5 stages, 3.5 stages, etc.), like the connecting rods 25 and 26 shown in Figure 2. In this case, the degree of engagement between the blocks becomes very good.

Further, the fins may be provided with a spiral like the connecting rod 27 to strengthen the connection between the blocks. Although these connecting rods 20 are made of metal in the above embodiment, they may also be made of wood. In that case, wood has a rougher surface than metal and therefore has a higher coefficient of friction, so the above implementation is not possible. The fins in the example can be omitted. This is especially true for items with long connecting rods.

By the way, this block is a square cube in the above embodiment, but it may also be hexagonal or hexagonal in plan or front view. Its surface has an alternating concave and convex pattern, and its decorative quality is noteworthy.

Therefore, one embodiment of the method for assembling an engagement block according to the present invention will be described below.

First, prepare a large number of the above-mentioned wooden blocks 10, each of which has the same vertical holes for a plurality of connecting rods, and arrange them left and right in order as shown in the plan view shown in FIG. Next, a wooden connecting rod with a nail at the end, which is half the height of the block IO, is fitted, and the wooden floor 3 below it is fitted.
Hit 0 with a hammer. Then, as shown in FIG. 3, these horizontally arranged layers of blocks 10 are stacked with each layer being shifted left and right in a zigzag manner. At this time, each of the connecting rod vertical holes 11. l
Pour the adhesive in the capsule into 'l.

Then, the connecting rods 20 having the same length as the height of the block 10 are fitted into the connecting rod vertical holes 11, 11 by hitting them with a hammer or the like. As a result, the connecting positions of the connecting rods 20 in the height direction of the blocks 10 are shifted alternately for each block as shown in FIG.
The area around it will also be glued. Of course, each block may be bonded with adhesive.

Note that the layers of the block IO described above may not only be arranged horizontally as shown in FIG. 4, but may also be arranged in a plurality of vertical and horizontal combinations as shown in the plan view shown in FIG. Further, as shown in FIG. 6, a heat insulating material, a sound insulating material 40, etc. may be inserted between two rows.

However, number 7! ! 1 to 11 show each embodiment of the block, and A in each figure is a plan view thereof, and B in the corresponding figure is a front view thereof.

Here, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the block 1
Modified blocks 10a and 10b may be provided with depressions 12.12a and 12b at 0. The block shown in FIG. 7 is for the case where the crossbar 50 is located within one block. The one in FIG. 8 is the one in which the crossbar 50 is in a position spanning two blocks.

Similarly, as shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, instead of the recesses 12.12a and 12b of the block 10, the recesses 12.12a and 12b are made extremely deep, that is, a block 10c with that part of the block 10 cut. , 10d
, 10e.

The one in Figure 9 corresponds to the case where the building block 50 is located within one block, and the one in Figure 11 corresponds to the case where the crosspiece 50 is located in a position spanning two blocks. The example shown in FIG. 10 corresponds to both cases.

Furthermore, since the blocks 10 described above are stacked alternately, the ends of the assembled blocks are vertically uneven. Therefore, it is advisable to prepare half blocks to fill in these irregularities. Also, as shown in Figure 12,
A beam 60 may be provided at the top of the assembled block. Of course, instead of this, as shown in FIG. 13, the crossbar 50 may be fitted into the deformable block 10a in the direction of the arrow, and another deformable block 10a may be fitted over it.

In the above embodiment, the block 10 is made of wood, but it may be made of hollow metal, resin, ceramic, or the like. A heat insulating material, a sound insulating material, etc. may be provided therein. Furthermore, if the ratio of the sizes of each side of this block IO is set to 2:1 in a plan view, the size may be increased when the blocks are combined vertically and horizontally. However, when used for interior design, it may be better to create an uneven pattern on the wall surface when these blocks are combined vertically and horizontally, so it may be a good idea to change the size ratio. Its thickness should also be determined according to its intended use.

In addition, in this embodiment, the vertical holes 11 and 11 for the engaging rods of the block 1o are located one-half of the short side of the block 1o when viewed from the top, and the long direction thereof is a quarter of the length from the left and right sides. If you set it to position 1, the holes will align when stacked alternately.

However, when applying this to interior design, it may be better to match the disordered pattern in that position.
It is best to decide on the purpose of use.

[Effects of the Invention] Since the engaging block and the method for assembling the same according to the present invention are made as described above, even a weak woman or the like can easily lift and assemble the block.

In particular, it can be used as it is for interior design without requiring many other materials, and has a wide range of applications such as partitions, mountain huts, and extensions.
