Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of building block toys, and in particular to a handmade building block and a splicing method. Background Art

[0002] In the current toy market, building block toys have occupied a place with their unique charm. They are not only loved by children, but also attract the attention of many adults. The design concept of building block toys is to exercise the imagination and creativity of players through splicing and combination.

[0003] Although building block toys are popular in the market, they also have some shortcomings. Traditional granular building blocks rely on the concave and convex interlocking shapes of the blocks themselves when splicing, which limits their flexibility to a certain extent. Although the flexibility of plug-in building blocks has been improved, their structural stability may not be as good as traditional granular building blocks. In addition, with the diversification of consumer demand, the requirements for innovation and personalization of building block toys are also getting higher and higher, which poses higher challenges to the design and production of building block toys. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a handmade building block and a splicing method which have high splicing flexibility, simple operation, stable structure, low cost, and rich and diverse building block shapes.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A structure is produced, which consists of a building block body, a connecting piece, and an end connector. The building block body consists of two building block components 1A and 1B, the outer side of which is a building block modeling surface, and the inner side includes a convex connection of the building block component 1A and a concave connection of the building block component 1B. The convex surface of the building block component 1A is provided with a through hole suitable for the connecting piece to pass through. The connecting piece is an overall long thin sheet, and a plurality of rectangular sheets with regular distances are provided. There is a standard spacing line in the middle of the connected rectangular sheets. The connecting sheet rectangular sheet is used to adapt to the end connector. The end connector provides a one-piece ultra-thin sheet of a bendable material, and the two sides are connecting structures of the same design. A rectangular notch is provided on the outer side of the connecting structure, and side strips are provided around it.

[0007] Furthermore, the connecting piece is an overall long thin piece, and a plurality of rectangular pieces with regular distances are arranged according to the size specifications of the building blocks. There is a standard spacing line in the middle of the connected rectangular pieces. When in use, the length of the connecting piece can be freely cut along the spacing line according to actual needs.

[0008] Furthermore, the convex surface of the building block component 1A is provided with a through hole suitable for the connecting piece to pass through. The through hole is designed and set according to the weaving requirements and the width of the rectangular piece of the connecting piece. The connecting piece passes through the through hole to realize the arrangement and combined splicing between different building blocks. The width of the through hole is consistent with the width of the rectangular piece of the connecting piece, which can keep the positions of the building blocks in regular arrangement during the series connection process.

[0009] Furthermore, the inner sides of the building block components 1A and 1B are interlocked with each other through concave-convex structures to achieve the purpose of close combination, fix the connecting piece in the middle of the building block, and at the same time meet the needs of fixing the weaving nodes of the connecting piece in different axes. During the weaving and shaping process of the connecting piece, it is ensured that the building block is stable and does not move.

[0010] Furthermore, the end connector provides a one-piece ultra-thin sheet of bendable material, with the same connection structure on both sides, a rectangular notch on the outside of the connection structure, and side strips around it. The side of the rectangular sheet at the end of the connecting sheet passes through the rectangular notch, rotates in the direction, and is fixed in the front side strip, so that the connecting sheet can be connected end to end or connected to other connecting sheets. The size of the end connector matches the rectangular sheet, and the ultra-thin material makes it possible to fix it in the building block without affecting the fit of the building block.

[0011] Furthermore, the outer surface of the building block can be designed with a variety of shapes and patterns to enrich the matching of the building blocks and improve the creativity and fun of the building block toys.

[0012] Furthermore, the connecting piece has shaping and supporting functions, and can meet different shaping needs through weaving and matching. The structure is stable, and combined with the building block body with diverse designs, rich and varied building block shapes can be created.

[0013] Furthermore, according to usage requirements, connecting pieces of different hardness and thickness are provided. The soft connecting pieces are tough and plastic and can be freely bent and shaped. The hard connecting pieces provide stability and strength to the building block structure and improve the flexibility of building block design.

[0014] Furthermore, according to usage requirements, the proportions and specifications of the building block bodies, connecting pieces, and end connectors can be adjusted according to design requirements and matched with each other, thereby broadening the application areas of building block toys.

[0015] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] (1) The present invention provides connecting pieces of different hardness and softness, and combines the connecting piece weaving design to create a building block effect that combines hardness and softness, thereby increasing the flexibility of the building block modeling.

[0017] (2) The assembly form of the fixing connecting piece on the inside of the building block body of the present invention is firmly connected without affecting the shape display of the outside of the building block body, and can create building blocks with richer and more diverse appearances. The building blocks have rich building brick selections, diverse weaving designs, mature technology, low cost, and different weaving methods. They can create a variety of patterns and shapes, greatly enhancing the fun, creativity and novelty of the building blocks, and can be applied to a wide range of uses such as building block toys and decorative items.

[0018] (3) The proportions and specifications of the building block body, connecting piece, and end connector of the present invention can be adjusted according to design requirements and matched with each other, which can broaden the application field of building block toys.

[0019] (4) The present invention combines the advantages of building blocks and handicrafts, introduces handmade serial and weaving elements into the building block splicing design, and uses building blocks of different shapes to construct three-dimensional structures or decorations. This not only increases the layering and visual effect of the work, but also makes the creation process more interesting, creating more colorful creative works. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
