Description

Multifunctional block with attachment means {MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TOY BLOCK}

The present invention relates to a block for a child, more specifically, to reduce the weight compared to the conventional block, and can be used as a desk or a simple house while allowing the child to build a variety of structures using the block In order to maximize intelligence development, brain development and amusement, it is a folding type formed by folding a solid block or expanded paper formed of paper, synthetic resin, pulp sponge, natural resin, etc. The present invention relates to a multifunctional block provided with an attachment means such as a velcro or a magnetic material to mutually attach and detach a plurality of blocks to at least one surface in a three-dimensional block having various shapes.

Generally, a toy block is formed by forming two or more round or square protrusions and recesses in a plurality of rows on upper and lower surfaces of various shapes, and connecting or stacking assembly using separate assembly parts including pins. There is this.

The former block toys are usually injection-molded with synthetic resin and have circular protrusions protruding from one row to many rows on the top or side thereof, and grooves of one row or multiple rows so that the protrusions can be fitted to the bottom or other side. It is formed so that the assembly is made by the binding of the projection and the groove.

However, this is because monolithic assembly is performed as if the brick is laminated and assembled, and there is a limitation in forming the structure, and since most parts are formed in a small size, the assembly is inconvenient and there is a fear of loss. Risk of safety accidents such as swallowing.

On the other hand, as the latter block toys are assembled by inserting blocks through separate assembly parts such as pins, they are difficult in this process, cumbersome and inconvenient, and the size of the assembly parts is too small. There is a drawback in that it is not suitable for use, and thus is less versatile.

Moreover, in the case of block toys having protrusions and recesses in the conventional prefabricated block toys, most of them are made of synthetic resin, which has an artificial feeling, which adversely affects children's emotions. In addition to the uniformity and monotony, there is a disadvantage that not only is it suitable for infants due to the need for a lot of strength and skill in the assembly and disassembly process, as well as the skin of fingers and the like in the gap between the blocks.

In order to solve this problem, registration design No. 146536, Registration Utility Model No. 0423977, etc. disclose children's toys formed by folding paper into bricks.

However, the above-mentioned paper brick is simply used to fold the paper in the form of a block, there is a limit that only simple play such as stacking play or domino game, the folding method is somewhat complicated, the material in the case of being made of paper Due to the characteristics of the durability or support strength is weak, there is a problem such as easily deformed or crushed even in small force.

In order to increase the bearing capacity, the material or thickness of the paper constituting the block may be appropriately selected.However, special materials or thick paper are expensive, so the manufacturing cost increases and the weight is heavy. There is a drawback to handling.

As another prior art, domestic utility model No. 0271892 proposed a block toy with a squeaker on all sides.

However, if Velcro (trade name of the stick) is attached to the entire surface of the block, it is difficult for infants to attach and disassemble the block because the adhesive force is stronger than necessary, and the rough shape of the Velcro is the entire surface of the block. Since it is formed in the structure even when assembling the structure other than the Velcro in the structure is not represented to harm the aesthetics and there is a problem such that visibility is reduced during the night.

The present invention devised to solve the above problems, the weight is reduced compared to the conventional block, and can be used as a desk or a simple house while allowing children to easily build various types of structures using the block. The purpose is to provide a multifunctional block equipped with attachment means to maximize intelligence development and brain development and play.

Another object of the present invention is to increase the width of the age group from infants to children by making the paper support force of the shape and excellent adhesion of the shape, without making the thickness thick, the attachment means can be a suitable degree of adhesion, Children can also fold the paper directly to complete the block to provide a variety of play and provide a multifunctional block equipped with attachment means to maximize the development of creativity.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a multifunctional block equipped with various attachment means such as a display structure for display windows, interior props or educational toys, and a toy storage box in addition to toys.

Preferably, the Velcro is attached via a double-sided adhesive tape or adhesive (more preferably non-toxic), the Velcro or adhesive tape or adhesive when the blocks are attached to each other by forming grooves of the corresponding area on the outer surface of the block While the gap between the bricks caused by the thickness of the layer is minimized, in the case of double-sided adhesive tape, the end is not exposed to the outside to prevent the Velcro from peeling off.

Preferably, the folding block may be provided with an outer frame forming the outer surface of the block, and a support formed in the interior of the outer frame to maintain the shape of the outer frame in the space.

In this case, the support may be any one of a one-piece type that is integrally folded with the outer mold and a separate type that is separated from the outer mold and installed separately from the outer mold.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the edge of the block is characterized in that the curved surface.

As a more preferred embodiment of the present invention, a margin is formed on the outer surface of the block except for the attachment means, characterized in that the pattern is formed in the margin. In this case, the margin or pattern may be a luminous body.

In addition, the paper edge of the folding block may be curved in the form of a wave or irregularities.

In addition, the attachment means is provided on the inner surface in addition to the surface of the paper, and furthermore, the inner surface is also the same shape or color as the outer surface, so that the block can be reused if the inner surface becomes the outer surface by flipping the block if necessary.

According to the present invention, it is possible to maximize the development of intelligence, brain development, creativity and playfulness because it is light in weight but has excellent support and can assemble various structures arbitrarily.

In addition, it is easy to assemble and disassemble, and in the case of the folding block, the block can be assembled by itself and completed, and the block is not attached to the entire surface of the block but is only partially attached to the block. The available age range is wide, the corners are curved, and the edges of the paper are formed in the form of wavy or irregularities, so that there is a great effect, such as to prevent accidents such as injury to the hand.

A perspective view of a solid block according to an embodiment.

As shown in Figure 1, the solid block 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention is a three-dimensional figure with an outer surface, such as (a) is a rectangular parallelepiped, or (b), (c) a triangular prism Although not shown, the cross-section is circular or rhombus, hexagonal or square, the shape thereof is not limited, all such shapes are referred to as a three-dimensional figure.

In addition, the term “solid type” is a term used to distinguish the “folding type” to be described later, and means that the paper material is foam-molded, injection-molded with synthetic resin, pulp sponge, natural resin, or processed wood surface. . Of course, in the case of molding a synthetic resin or paper material, the inside may be hollow for reducing the weight, in this case is arranged with the meaning of the term of solid, but it is referred to as 'solid' for convenience. Therefore, the solid block in the present invention should be interpreted to mean all types of blocks completed by forming or processing, in addition to the blocks cut and assembled by cutting paper.

According to the present invention, there is provided an attachment means 20 for attaching and detaching each of a plurality of blocks to at least one side of the block 10 having a three-dimensional shape of various shapes, the attachment means being provided on all sides of the block 10. It is preferable to attach.

The attachment means 20 may be a velcro 21 as shown in FIG. 1, may be a magnetic material 24 having magnetic force as shown in FIG. 3, and furthermore, while installing the velcro 21 on the outer surface of the block 10, The magnetic body 24 can also be installed in parallel inside. Simultaneous use is advantageous because it is possible to maintain the required adhesion by using the magnetic force of the magnetic material 24 while minimizing the use area of the Velcro 21 that can harm the aesthetics.

Velcro 21 may be attached to the male velcro 21 'on one side of the block 10 and the female velcro 21 "on the other side as shown in Figure 1 (a) so that the male and female can be attached to each other. Or, as shown in (b) (c) of Figure 1 by attaching a unipolar Velcro 21 may be in the form of being attached to each other between the velcro 21 without gender.

In a preferred form, the edges 14 of the block 10 can be curved to remove sharp parts that can cut the hand, and also rather than applying the attachment means 20 to the entire outer surface of the block 10. A blank space B may be formed on the outer surface, and various patterns 12 such as letters and drawings may be formed on the blank space B. FIG.

At this time, when the luminous treatment to the margin (B) or the pattern (12) or to manufacture itself as a luminous body, assembling the structure using the block 10 as shown in Figure 7 will be noticeable at night.

In the case where the attachment means 20 is the Velcro 21, the Velcro is preferably in the shape of 'ㅁ', as shown in this case, regardless of the shape or position of the other three-dimensional figure block to be attached to the surface While the adhesive area can be maximized, the margin (B) can be provided to satisfy the attachment function and the aesthetic function according to the pattern 12 at the same time.

As shown in FIG. 2, the velcro 21 attached to the outer surface of the block 10 is typically attached via a double-sided adhesive tape 22 or an adhesive, and the outer surface of the block 10 corresponds to the velcro 21. A groove 16 having an area to be formed is formed, and the adhesive 22 is preferably a non-toxic adhesive.

That is, for example, the groove 16 has an area almost the same as the outer shape of the Velcro 21, and has a depth similar to that of the double-sided adhesive tape or adhesive layer, which is an attachment medium. In addition to preventing the occurrence of gaps between the bricks, and in the case of the double-sided adhesive tape, the Velcro 21 is easily removed from the block 10 because the edge end thereof does not protrude or be exposed out of the surface of the block 10. There is an advantage that does not peel off.

In other words, when the blocks 10 without the grooves 16 are attached to each other, a gap is generated between the blocks by the thickness of the Velcro 21, including two double-sided adhesive tapes 22 or adhesive layers interposed therebetween. If the groove 16 is formed, the distance between the blocks 10 can be narrowed by the depth of the groove, which is more advantageous.

Each of the upper and lower cut lines 101 and 201 is formed to have a length that does not reach the inner end, and the left and right sides 300 and 400 are also divided into three, respectively, of the three divided portions of the upper and lower portions 100 and 200. The upper part 310, 410 and the lower part 330, 430 of the two parts 110, 130, 210, 230 and the three parts divided by the left and right sides 300 and 400 are common to each other. It is connected only between each of the cutting lines 101, 201, 301, 401 while sharing a space, and the middle portions 120, 220 of the upper and lower portions 100, 200, and the left and right sides 300, 400 In the middle portions 320 and 420 of the Two types of fitting grooves 121, 221, 321, and 421 are formed, and the upper and lower portions 100, 200, and both side portions 110, 130, 210, and 230 of the upper and lower portions thereof are formed. Direction further extended in each direction to form upper and lower extension portions 140 and 240, respectively, and the middle portions 320 and 420 of the left and right side portions 300 and 400 are further extended in left and right directions, respectively. 340 and 440, and fitting holes 312, 322, 332, 412, 422 and 432 are formed in the middle of each of the three divided portions of the left and right sides 300 and 400, respectively. Each part is folded into multiple stages.

When the paper thus formed is folded in the order of FIG. 5, a part of the paper becomes the support 30, which supports the shape of the outline frame 11 of the block 10 inside the block 10. Done.

In addition, if the same velcro is attached to a position corresponding to the velcro on the inner surface besides the surface of the paper constituting the folding block, if the material is smeared or dirty on the outer surface of the paper, the reverse side is folded upside down. Velcro attached to the inner surface is exposed to the outer surface, and contaminated velcro attached to the outer surface is concealed on the inner surface of the block so that the paper can be reused.

In this case, the inner surface of the paper may also add the same shape or color as the outer surface, or may add a different shape or color, or may be in a blank state.

If the Velcro adhesion of the used block is degraded, it is also advantageous in terms of the adhesion to be able to reuse the unused Velcro when the block is completed by flipping the paper as above.

As shown in FIG. 6, the support 30 may be a separate component from the outer mold 11 of the block 10.

As shown, the outer mold 11 manufactures a desired three-dimensional figure by folding paper so that a space S is formed therein, and puts a support 30 into the inside of the space S to steer the outer mold 11. It is to keep the figure shape.

At this time, the support 30 is formed with support plates 31 for supporting each in the longitudinal and horizontal directions, each support plate 31 is provided with a slit 32 to be cross-assembled with each other, such that the support in the form of a lattice ( 30) is formed. Of course, the support 30 may be a variety of forms, such as a honeycomb, cross, diamond, including the lattice shown, in any form, the plurality of support plate 31 is formed by at least one cross-sectional frame 11 ) Can be supported. Here, it should be noted that the outer mold 11 may be manufactured in various forms as long as the support 30 is inserted therein, and thus the characteristics of the developed view are not limited.
