Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62/281,078 filed on Jan. 20, 2016, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to interlocking block systems, and more particularly, to interlocking blocks having various connecting and supporting functionalities.
- Background
- Building blocks play a very important role in toys and construction of structures. However, most building blocks in the market only connect vertically. For example, common toys such as building blocks marketed under the name LEGO® have features which enable vertical connection but no horizontal connection.
- Various other blocks may provide for a horizontal connection, however, they do not connect horizontally in a manner strong enough for any structure made from these blocks to bear weight and provide strength. Furthermore, such blocks which might connect horizontally may still not connect on each lateral side.
- While various block systems have been proposed, there remains a need for an interlocking block system which enables both vertical and horizontal connections on all sides, and which provides for a weight-bearing horizontal surface comprised of horizontally connected blocks, among other features and advantages.
- The present invention is an interlocking block system. The blocks include lateral sides, and top and bottom sides. Each side has a connective element which allows blocks to be either stacked vertically, or connected laterally. Connections can this be made without the need for adhesive, fasteners, or other reinforcement.
- In various embodiments, the blocks of the present invention include two sides having projections which interface with two remaining sides which have receiving slots configured to interface with the projections and lock blocks laterally in place. The top and bottom sides of the blocks also have interfacing elements which can connect vertically.
- A particularly useful feature of the present invention involves the configuration in which laterally connected blocks are assembled above vertically stacked blocks. For example, as explained in detail below, if block 2 is stacked above block 1, and block 3 is connected laterally to block 2, a portion of block 1, such as part of a projection on one of the sides, extends below a portion of block 3 to provide support an enable weight to be applied to block 3 without dislodging the connection.
- Cap members are optionally provided to enable a flat surface to be formed. The cap members interface with the top side of the blocks. For example, a table assembly may be topped with a layer of cap members to create a flat tabletop surface.
- An optional notch may be provided at the bottom of the blocks, and a hollowed vertical passageway may extend through the block. Thus, various wires or cords are able to pass through the passageway to provide connections to electronic devices.
- Thus, an interlocking block system which allows for lateral, horizontal connections between blocks is provided. The system allows the blocks to be connected not only vertically, but horizontally, without the need for an adhesive or other supporting element, and it enables the horizontal surface created to be a weight-bearing surface. Applications of the system are numerous, and may include, but are not limited to, toys, modular furniture, tables, desks, book shelves, and structures formed in the construction industry.
- Still other objects and advantages of the present invention will become readily apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description, wherein it is shown and described only the preferred embodiments of the invention, simply by way of illustration of the best mode contemplated of carrying out the invention. As will be realized, the invention is capable of other and different embodiments and its several details are capable of modifications in various obvious respects, without departing from the invention. Accordingly, the drawings, wherein like reference numerals represent like features, and description are to be regarded as illustrative in nature and not as restrictive.

- In various embodiments, the present invention is an interlocking block system. The system allows blocks to be stacked and interconnected both vertically and horizontally.
- In various embodiments, a plurality of substantially
identical blocks 10 are provided. Each block includes four lateral sides, and a top and bottom side. Various projections and receiving slots are provided to allow the lateral sides to connect in line with one another, and the top and bottom sides of theblocks 10 interface as well. - In certain embodiments, a
first block 10 and asecond block 10 are provided. Referring toFIGS. 1-3 by way of illustration, the first andsecond blocks 10 are substantially identical to one another in size and configuration. The first block and second block each include afirst side 20, asecond side 30, athird side 40, afourth side 50, atop side 60, and abottom side 70. - In various embodiments, vertical stacking and connection is achieved via the
top side 60 andbottom side 70. Thetop side 60 includes atop interfacing member 65, such as a projection, andbottom side 70 of theblocks 10 include abottom interfacing member 75, such as a receiving configuration. Thebottom interfacing member 75 is adapted to interface and connect with thetop interfacing member 65 in a vertically stacked mode in which a second block is placed on top of a first block. - Numerous configurations for connection are possible, and variations are considered within the scope of the invention. In certain embodiments, the
first side 20 of thefirst block 10 has afirst projection 25, and thethird side 40 of thesecond block 10 has afirst receiving slot 45 adapted to receive thefirst projection 25. Thus, in a first connected mode in which thefirst projection 25 is interlocked with thefirst receiving slot 45, thesecond block 10 is held in place aside thefirst block 10 with respect to lateral forces. Ideally, these connections allow the blocks to be laterally connected so that they are even with one another horizontally. In certain embodiments,projection 25 is at the lower portion of thefirst side 20, andslot 45 is open at the lower portion of thethird side 40. - In similar fashion, in certain embodiments, the
fourth side 50 of thefirst block 10 has asecond projection 55, and thesecond side 30 of thesecond block 10 has asecond receiving slot 35 adapted to receive thesecond projection 55. Thus, in a second connected mode in which thesecond projection 55 is interlocked with thesecond receiving slot 35, the second block is held in place aside the first block with respect to lateral forces. An example of this connection is shown inFIG. 10 with respect toblocks projection 55 andslot 35 are disposed at the upper portion of their respective lateral sides. - In various embodiments, a feature which provides functional support is provided. In reference to
FIG. 10 , when blocks are connected such asblock 202 stacked aboveblock 201, and block 203 connected laterally to block 202, the lateral connection shown is accomplished by interlocking afourth side 50 with asecond side 30. If theblocks block 202, and oriented as shown inFIG. 10 , withprojection 55 extending below a portion ofblock 203, this relative movement is restricted. Thus, this allows downward force to be applied to block 203 without the blocks disconnecting. - Further to the concept illustrated above, in certain embodiments, a lateral row of
blocks 10 can be added to the assembly, and another leg added, as seen on the right side ofFIG. 10 , and a stable configuration is achieved so that force applied to the top surface does not cause blocks to be dislodged. - Other configurations of support being provided to laterally connected blocks from portions of a block stacked beside and below are possible. For example, in the configuration shown, the top portion of the
fourth side 50 can support the bottom of afirst side 20 or asecond side 30. The top portion of athird side 40 can provide support to a bottom portion of afirst side 20 orsecond side 30. Similarly, a top of asecond side 30 can provide support to the bottom portion of asecond side 30 of another block. Thus, numerous orientations and configurations can provide support to assembled structures in accordance with the present invention. - Numerous additional assemblies are thus possible, such as a table 130 as shown in
FIG. 9 , book shelves, desks, other modular furniture assemblies, toys, and other creative configurations. Block systems according to the invention also have applications in the construction industry, and numerous constructions can be accomplished using the system of the present invention. - Furthermore, the shapes and configurations of the various projections and receiving slots may be any suitable shape. In certain embodiments, projections are T-shaped, and receiving slots are T-shaped to receive the projections. However, Y shapes, or any suitable shape which interfaces and laterally locks blocks together can be used.
- In various embodiments, a
cap member 100 is provided. Thecap member 100 has a substantially flattop cap surface 110, and a bottomcap interfacing member 120 adapted to connect to thetop interfacing member 65 of ablock 10. Ideally,cap members 100 are substantially square in shape. Thus, a top surface such as a table top surface can be created, as illustrated inFIG. 9 . - In certain embodiments, the
blocks 10 include an open passageway extending from thebottom side 70 to thetop side 60. Optionally, a notch or opening 140 is provided on thebottom side 70. This enables theblock 10 to sit on a flat surface and allow a cable, such as a power cord or charging cord, to pass through or under thenotch 140 without disturbing the contact between the block and the surface. Such a cord can be strung through the passageway, and through multiple stacked blocks such as up the leg of an assembled object so that wired power or connectivity can be provided in this fashion. - While specific embodiments have been illustrated and described, numerous modifications come to mind without significantly departing from the spirit of the invention and the scope of protection is limited by the scope of the accompanying claims.
