The present invention relates to a block stacking toy set of triangular, quadrangular, etc. of different shapes and sizes that can have interlock means and holes in each surface, and in particular, to improve the interchangeability of the interlock ability between blocks. The present invention relates to a block stacking toy set including various adapters.

Conventional toy stacking blocks have a variety of sizes and shapes but ultimately have interlock means to limit the likelihood that the blocks can be joined together. This is because the interlock means extend only from the two opposing faces.

Furthermore, the simple interlock means of a conventional toy stacking block is a press fit in the longitudinal direction, usually between the top protrusion of the first block and the corresponding protrusion of the bottom of the second block. The mutual coupling by these means is particularly weak when the force is applied perpendicular to the longitudinal force used to join the blocks. Thus, after spending a lot of time, the user may experience the failure of the model to be easily separated by weak force when assembling a model (such as an airplane) with blocks and playing with the toy.

Therefore, there has been a need for a toy stacking block provided on each surface and having interlock means having high impact resistance.

It is an object of the present invention to solve the above problems and to supply a set of toy stacking blocks which can be assembled by interconnecting in the longitudinal or transverse direction.

Another object of the present invention is to build a toy block that is not separated by a lateral force applied to it, but also has a considerable resistance to potential impact forces and can be easily separated when needed. Is to provide a set.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an open lower end, a closed upper end, a peripheral wall extending between the upper end and the lower end, a first interlock means disposed on the peripheral wall, and a second interlock disposed on the upper end. Means, a third interlock means disposed in the lower end portion, a through portion extending between the upper end portion and the lower end portion in the peripheral wall, whereby the blocks are interlocked with each other in a horizontal direction by the first interlock means, A block stacking toy set is provided which is interlocked in the vertical direction by the second and third interlock means.

According to a first aspect of the present invention said first interlock means comprises a plurality of C-shaped lugs, each lug having an arc of at least 180 degrees extending vertically outward from the midpoint of the peripheral wall.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the first interlock means includes a plurality of C-shaped slots defined inwardly in the peripheral wall.

The second interlock means includes a plurality of cylindrical protrusions extending vertically upward from the upper end.

The third interlock means comprises a plurality of grooves which are formed in size, shape and spacing so as to correspond to the second interlock means.

The through hole is defined by a tubular wall extending inwardly from the inner surface of the upper end to the lower end.

The peripheral wall comprises at least three sidewalls, each sidewall being straight and identical to the straight walls of other blocks of the same size.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, a plurality of second toy stacking blocks, each size and shape of which is determined to interlock with the plurality of first toy stacking blocks, is further included to increase the exchangeability of the coupling.

The above and other objects and features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
