Embodiment Construction

[0016]A toy building set according to the invention is based on interconnectable modular elements or bricks of the type shown in FIGS. 1-4. Said bricks 10 each have a substantially square, flat contour 10 with two interconnectable, opposite main faces. One first face 12 has a thin peripheral frame 13 surrounding a square hollow 14 defining a corresponding, square convex area 16 on the opposite face 18. Four hollow, square-profiled pins 20 rise from the bottom of hollow 14 and are arranged in square. The ends of the pins lie at the level of peripheral frame 13.

[0017]Convex area 16 has a salient, peripheral edge 21, which is insertable with a friction fit into hollow 14 of another brick, as well as four salient seats 22 which are aligned to pins 20 and have a complementary square profile, thereby allowing interconnection of bricks arranged on top of each other by inserting the pins of one brick into the seats of another brick.

[0018]The edge 24 of peripheral frame 13 is bent at right a...

Abstract

A toy building set comprising interconnectable bricks, each brick having a substantially square, flat contour with two opposite main faces, a first face having a substantially square hollow having four projections rising from its bottom, a second face having four seats aligned to the pins, in which the pins of another brick are insertable with a friction fit. Two first side faces have respective central projections extending therefrom, and two second side faces have two lateral projections extending therefrom, between which one central projection of another brick is insertable with friction fit.

Description

[0001]The present invention relates to a toy building set of the type comprising a plurality of modular molded elements made of a synthetic material, so-called “bricks”, which can be linked together by friction fit to build tridimensional models representing fancy figures or real objects such as buildings, vehicles, items of furniture, as well as animals, plants, etc.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The toy building sets of the above type are generally packed in cartons containing a predetermined number of bricks. The simplest bricks typically have a prismatic profile with a square or rectangular contour and, although they may differ from one another for size and shape, they have the common feature of being provided with projections on one base, which are shaped to fit into corresponding recesses formed on one opposite base. Alternatively, certain bricks may have only one base provided with projections or recesses.[0003]As known, in relation to bricks having a relatively simple prof...
