Benefits of technology

[0008]In light of the foregoing comments, it will be recognized that a principal object of the present invention is to provide a paver stone system that is of simple construction and design and which can be easily employed with highly reliable results.
[0009]Another object of the present invention is to provide a paver stone system that is easy to use to construct both residential and commercial landscaping projects and applications.
[0011]A still further object of the present invention is to provide a stone system in which each of the blocks can be tumbled to present a natural or weathered appearance.

Problems solved by technology

Even though these blocks are relatively inexpensive, they typically require complex installations to construct various surfaces or structures.
Additionally, some patterns are complex and require many types of stones to construct a surface.
Further, such complex patterns may require that the stones be cut which may require specialized equipment.

Embodiment Construction

[0030]Referring now to the drawings, wherein like numbers refer to like items, number 10 identifies a preferred embodiment of a paver stone system constructed according to the present invention. With reference now to FIG. 1, the system 10 comprises a first paver stone or block 12 having a generally trapezoidal shape, a second paver stone or block 14 having a generally triangular shape, and a third paver stone or block 16 having a generally rhombus shape with all of the stones 12, 14, and 16 being used to form a pattern 18. The pattern 18 may be continued in any direction as required to construct various surfaces or structures such as a road, a footpath, steps, a floor, or a patio. The shapes of each of the stones 12, 14, and 16 allow the stones 12, 14, and 16 to be placed adjacent to each other to form the pattern 18. The shapes and dimensions of each of the stones 12, 14, and 16 and how the stones 12, 14, and 16 interact with each other will be discussed more fully herein.

Abstract

A paver stone system comprises a first paver stone having a generally trapezoidal configuration, a second paver stone having a generally triangular configuration, and a third paver stone having a generally rhombus configuration. The paver stones are used to construct a path having any desired pattern.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001]This invention relates to a paver stone system and more particularly to a paver stone system for covering an area such as a driveway, patio, or a path. More specifically, a paver stone system is disclosed having three uniquely shaped paving stones that can be combined or placed contiguously to form a stable load-bearing surface in a multitude of patterns.[0002]Paving stones are used to construct various surfaces and structures such as roads, footpaths, steps, and patios. Paving stones have been constructed from various materials. Examples of such materials include rocks, stones, and preformed or molded concrete blocks. Paving stones may be fabricated from concrete or a concrete mixture by using a mold of a desired size and shape. The concrete is placed into a mold and formed under high pressure and then removed from the mold to cure. Once the stones are cured they may be arranged and placed on pallets for storage or shipping. In order to construct a...
