ALBERT BOSSLET, or mums; GERMANY.
BOX 01 BRICKS FOB BUILDING ROOMS INCLOSED BY WALLS.
Application filed January 10, 1925, Serial No. 1,696, and in Germany December 21, 1 9253.
This invention relates toa set of toy build-- ing blocks or elements designed for building hollow stone constructions which look almost like real buildings. Although a box containsionly comparatively few building elements a great number of buildings of various shapes can be built up -from the.
i lap each other, said slabs and vaults which will hereinafter be called intermediate elements being inserted between said corner posts. Each building element forms by itself, on the whole, a cubi-form or semi cubi-form structure. The, corner posts and the intermediate elements are made from an artificial stone mass and they have no studs or tenons, liable to break ofl. From the several building elements cubiform or semicubiform space units are made consisting each of four corner posts, four intermediate elements 'and a frame of four nogging pieces. The frame of nogging pieces holds by the action of its weight the corner posts and intermediate elements together. These space units are put together to forma building.
An embodiment of the invention is shown, by way of example, on the accompanying drawing, in which:
Fig. 1 shows in perspective view a building element according to the invention.
Fig. 2 shows a porters lodge built from these buildin" elements.
Each building element consists of four corner-posts at having each a half groove or recess 1) extending over half the height of the-corner post. Between every two corner osts a either a slab c is inserted into the alf grooves or an insertion piece, for instance a vault d, said slabs and vaults being hereafter collectively designated by the expression intermediate elements. On the corner posts andon the intermediate elements d, 0 rest four nogging pieces 0, the set-off ends 7 of which overlap one another so that a closed frame is formed which serves at the same time owingto the friction as bond between the buildin element's uiIding elements the one on the other. The building is i I covered on the top by small boards g on which the solid triangular roof-elements II. are placed. The solid triangular roof elements 11. are placed end to end inabutting relation to form a sloping roof.
In order to make the toy buildings look as much as possible true to nature the windows i are recessed in the walls. The slabs c are painted on both surfaces with the aid of stencils. For the recessed painted windows apertures may be substituted so that the buildings can be lighted from the inside. I
For building long factory-like buildings in which several buildin elements are put side by side .it is evidently not necessary to connect every succeeding element with the preceding one by means of a corner post so that instead of two juxtaposed corner posts only one corner post may be used, the slabs ]0lll1 ng this corner post at-the right and left. In this case it is also necessary to use the inner partitions or slabs. The building element may be ofany height so that, for instance, so-called half stories can die built.
For stairs, hand rails, inclosure walls, cornices and the like the well known commonly used building elements are provided.
A box of bricks for building rooms inclosed by walls comprising building elements of which the buildings are built by putting the building elements side by side or one on the other, said building elements consisting of four corner posts provided with vertical recesses extendmg downwardly from the upper ends of the posts and of a width less than the thickness of the post and terminatmg intermediate of the ends thereof,'of intermediate elements inserted in the recesses of the corner posts in flush relation with the outer edges of the same, four nogging pieces supported by said corner posts, the ends of which pieces overlap each other so that a frame is formed which serves as a bond between several building elements, a horizontal roof supporting board arranged upon the til) nogging pieces, and a roof consisting of two ALBERT BOSSLETI
