  • the perforator for the toy building set the housing comprises a substantially plane surface, wherein a number of indentations are provided that form a number of coupling means that are complementary relative to the coupling studs and are configured with the same mutually fixed distance as the distance between the coupling studs on the building element to the effect that the housing can be mounted on a building element.
  • the manufacturer of the toy building set can draft instructions in advance as to how a user may him/herself produce various types of sheet elements, the building set as such functioning as a kind of boring template to the user, to the effect that the individual holes can easily be punched with a more accurate position than known so far.
  • the punching tool is thus configured in such a manner that it is capable of punching one or more holes in a sheet extending essentially in a plane in parallel with the essentially plane surface of the housing of the perforator.
  • the punching tools are conveniently each separately configured as a rod with a longitudinal axis and a first end on which a cutter blade is configured which is capable of rupturing the sheet when the rod is shifted along its longitudinal axis and through the sheet.
  • each coupling stud and each punching tool is configured to be essentially circular cylindrical to the effect that the centre axis of each punching tool constitutes the longitudinal axis thereof, and wherein one of the complementary coupling means is arranged such that the centre axis of the coupling stud coincides with the centre axis of one of the punching tools.
  • the diameter of the punching tool conveniently corresponds to the corresponding diameter of the coupling stud, since a very accurate positioning of the sheet on the coupling studs is hereby accomplished.
  • the housing of the perforator may comprise an operating handle configured on the opposite side of the housing relative to the plane surface, and said operating handle being configured such that, when pressure is applied onto it in a direction towards the housing, one or more punching tools is/are activated for punching one or more holes in the sheet.
  • the force to be applied to the operating handle will act essentially in parallel with the centre axis of the coupling stud to the effect that the risk of the perforator disengaging from the coupling studs during the punching effect.
  • the housing of the perforator may comprise a relatively thin slot for receiving a sheet, and said slot extends into the housing essentially in parallel with the essentially plane surface to the effect that it is ensured that eg a child is not hurt by its finger or other being inserted below the punching tools during the punching process.
  • the perforator comprises at least four punching tools that are configured in a square pattern at a mutual distance corresponding to the mutually fixed distance between two adjacent coupling studs on the building element.
  • the invention also relates to a perforator as such, said perforator comprising a housing, wherein means are configured for punching material from a sheet element configured from a thin material, such as a sheet of eg paper, plastics or fabric, in such a manner that the perforator is capable of punching a hole in the sheet.
  • the housing according to the invention having, in this context, an essentially plane surface, wherein at least two indentations are configured next to each other, said indentations being configured such that they are capable of engaging with and receiving a corresponding number of coupling studs that are configured such that they extend from an essentially plane surface on another element, such as a building element for a toy building set, and the coupling studs having an essentially circular cylindrical surface with a centre and a diameter of 4.8 mm and are configured such that the distance between two adjacent coupling studs is 8 mm to the effect that the distance between the circular cylindrical surfaces on two adjacent coupling studs is 3.2 mm, this perforator is suitable in particular for use in connection with a known toy building set.
  • the coupling studs have an essentially circular cylindrical surface with a centre and a diameter of 9.6 mm instead and are configured such that the distance between two adjacent coupling studs is 16 mm to the effect that the distance between the circular cylindrical surfaces of two adjacent coupling studs is 6.4 mm.
