Definitions

  • the components of the play structures should preferably be lightweight for handling by children and should be conducive to efficient manufacture.
  • a panel in an alternative embodiment of the present invention, includes a top finished component instead of a top peg component. Instead of providing pegs, this top finished component provides, for example, the finished top of a wall or another structural feature (e.g., a roof cap, a handle, or a support for a roof span). In this alternative embodiment, the panel would be intended for the top course of a wall.
  • this top finished component provides, for example, the finished top of a wall or another structural feature (e.g., a roof cap, a handle, or a support for a roof span).
  • the panel would be intended for the top course of a wall.
  • Figure 5B is a schematic diagram of a top view of the peg-receiving component shown in Figure 5A.
  • Figure 14 is a schematic diagram of another exemplary modular panel, according to an alternative embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG 16 illustrates an exemplary building block play system 1600 that uses the modular panel 1400 of Figure 14, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
  • multiple panels are stacked on top of each other and linked side-by-side using two differently sized panels and an offset construction technique.
  • one panel type 1602 includes top pegs and bottom peg receivers in an array of two by eight.
  • a second larger panel type 1604 includes top pegs and bottom peg receivers in an array of two by ten.
  • the panel types 1602 and 1604 are alternately stacked to provide an extension 1606 of the larger panel type 1604. This extension 1606 provides exposed pegs and peg receivers that can join with additional panels to start the offset construction.
  • Figure 20 illustrates another alternative embodiment of the present invention in which a modular panel 2000 has an interior compartment 2001. As shown in this exploded view, the construction of modular panel 2000 is similar in most respects to those described above, except for the compartment 2001.
  • Panel 2000 includes a base 2002, a peg component 2004 attached over the top of base 2002, and a peg-receiving component 2006 attached over the bottom of base 2002.
  • the modular panel 2000 is substantially a parallelepiped, as shown.
