Abstract
This invention relates to a set of pieces-connectors to assembly toys in shapes of smooth or grooved cylindrical tubes, smooth or teeth semicircles and the combination of the same. Smooth or toothed tubular semicircles joined to a smooth or grooved cylindrical tube by one of its ends to the middle external portion; smooth or toothed semicircles joined to other smooth or toothed semicircles by its exterior middle portion; cylindrical tubes with a fixed “ring-butt” joined in its middle portion; smooth or toothed semicircles, joined at its two ends by a smooth or grooved cylindrical tube, in its cavity direction, leaving the cavity at sight; cylindrical tubes, joined by their ends forming wheel; smooth or toothed semicircles, joined among them at their middle external portions of their curves perpendicular one to the other; cylindrical tubes folded 90 degrees and reduced in its ends respecting their circumferences. The pieces interact, engaging, fastening, dropping, sliding, grading, stabilizing, turning around and making sound “clicks” among them, constructing and creating an endless 3D shapes, the grooves and the edges-butts will stabilize and grade the development as well as the final result, the combination of smooth pieces with grooved and toothed pieces produce versatile results, having parts with stability and parts with more mobility, subjected to the needs of the different parts of the toy.
Description
- The present invention is related to a new model of construction pieces for 3D-assembly toys totally different from those known until now. This new model is characterized by its novel practical design and improvements which provide it with a peculiar and unique look.
- Presently, construction pieces for 3D assembly toys are characterized by its rigidity during the development, and, when the designs are finished, they have no mobility due to their own nature. Examples of them are Interlego, which has registered more than a hundred models including those with register numbers: 3572, 3571, 3570, 3568, 3583, 4335 2823 3877, 3870, 3804, 4250, 5324, 5325, or the German Anton Meyers' models of pieces for assembling toys with model register numbers 4104, 4103, 4102, 4093, 4092, 4091.
- The pieces intended to be protected by the present invention have been conceived with movement and gradable stability provided by its own nature. Through a grooved-toothed system the final result can be transformable or it can have mobility. This transformable mobility is carried on by manipulation and not by the effects of instability and collapse of pieces. This characteristic is a different proposal from the previous art because, by having movement through manipulation when the toy is being constructed as well as at the final result, there are much more possibilities of creation and other options for toy constructions.
- To complement the description and to provide a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, the following drawings with an illustrative non-limiting character are herein attached:

FIG. 13 , the thirteenth piece of the 3D assembly toy is constituted by a tube with a 90 degree curve (45), with its two reduced ends (46), this reduction allowing the connection-engagement to the pieces illustrated inFIGS. 1 , 2, 14 and 15. As it is illustrated inFIG. 14 , the fourteenth piece of the 3D assembly toy is constituted by a circular tube (47) where the pieces illustrated inFIGS. 5 , 6, 7, 8, 9 and 13 are engaged with on their internal diameter and the pieces illustrated inFIGS. 1 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 11 and 12 on their external diameter.

The 13 pieces illustrated inFIGS. 1 to 13 serve as connections-connectors-fasteners, engaging the smaller diameter ends (49) into the larger diameter ends (50). The tubular semicircles (51) fasten the pieces and the circular, smooth or grooved, tubes of different lengths (52). All semicircles, smooth or toothed, can be opened and then closed because they are manufactured with flexible material which also allows the free displacement all over the length of the circular tubes, smooth or grooved, and provides a 360 degree free rotation over all the external circumference of the pieces and circular tubes, on their external diameter; the grooved pieces (53), in conjunction with the toothed pieces (54) will bring gradation to stabilize the development and final results in creating figures. The rotation movement also is present when a smaller diameter (49) engages—gets into another of larger diameter (50. In the case of the wheel, the central circumference of the wheel (55) allows the pieces illustrated inFIGS. 1 , 2, 14 and 15 to engage—get inside.
