Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of modular amusement facilities, and in particular relates to a building block component and a modular structure game system. Background Art
[0002] Fixed structures and bulky designs are common technical limitations of existing kindergarten outdoor play facilities. For example, Chinese patent application number CN202322694950.6 discloses a safe climbing device for kindergartens. While the main frame is composed of a platform, climbing frame, and handrails, and features safety features such as anti-fall panels, the entire frame is a fixed, articulated structure that only supports limited angle adjustment and cannot be reconfigured. Furthermore, its assembly relies on screws, requiring adult operation and preventing children from independently participating in the construction.
[0003] Another Chinese patent with application number CN202223100602.3 discloses an outdoor wooden slide for children in kindergartens. The slide platform and support frame are constructed of materials such as plastic wood and rosewood, and safety is enhanced by components such as net dragons and hanging pipes. However, the wooden structure is heavy (a single component often exceeds the carrying capacity of children), and the overall design is fixed and cannot be disassembled or reassembled, resulting in a single function and occupying a fixed site.
[0004] The above-mentioned existing technologies and similar products have the following defects: 1. The structure is fixed and the function is single. It is impossible to adjust the shape according to children's creativity or venue requirements, which limits children's desire to explore and ability to create scenes. 2. The existing facilities (such as climbing frames and slide boxes) are large in size, and children are unable to carry or reorganize them, resulting in the creation of the venue being completely dominated by adults, depriving children of their autonomy. Materials such as plastic wood and solid wood further increase the weight of the unit, and the fixed structure cannot support children's independent disassembly and assembly. 3. To ensure stability, existing equipment mostly adopts fixed structures or heavy materials, sacrificing flexibility; and some lightweight equipment has a safety hazard of loose connections due to its simple structure. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a modular structure game system of building block components to meet the needs of users.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a building block component, comprising
[0007] A block-shaped component comprising a set of parallel horizontal surfaces and a plurality of circumferential surfaces supported between the two horizontal surfaces, wherein one of the horizontal surfaces is adapted to constitute a reference plane and is provided with a protruding boss, the other horizontal surface is adapted to constitute a mating plane and is provided with an opening adapted to mate with the protruding boss, and the circumferential surface is adapted to constitute a mating plane and is concavely formed with a cavity adapted to mate with the protruding boss;
[0008] The bottom of the cavity includes a columnar groove provided at a corner thereof, the columnar groove can be plugged into a columnar connecting member or a columnar running member, the columnar connecting member includes connecting columns provided at both ends thereof, and the columnar running member includes a connecting column and a roller that can be universally rotated around its axis;
[0009] The boss is provided with a plurality of grooves, and each of the circumferential surfaces is parallel to at least one of the grooves; the cavity body of the concave cavity is provided with a cross slot, and the cross slot is formed by orthogonal intersection of two of the grooves, and one of the grooves is arranged parallel to the horizontal plane;
[0010] A first mating area is formed in the center of the strip groove, and a second mating area is formed in the center of the cross slot. The first mating area and the second mating area can be mated with columnar connecting members to provide additional columnar connection points. The columnar connecting members can be used to strengthen the node strength or expand new connection branches.
[0011] As a preference, the reference plane and the matching plane can fit together to increase the contact area, thereby improving the stability of the stacking structure and preventing it from tilting or collapsing when subjected to force.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the block components include A-type block components and B-type block components, wherein the A-type block component is a cube, and the B-type block component is a cuboid formed by connecting two A-type block components in parallel, wherein:
[0013] The A-type block component includes two groups of parallel circumferential surfaces, the boss includes the cross slot, and the A-type block component also includes two groups of T-shaped pins arranged around the opening and four supporting legs arranged at the corners of one of the horizontal surfaces. The two T-shaped pins in each group are symmetrically arranged, and the T-shaped pins extend downward from the circumferential surface. The cross slot in the boss can simultaneously plug two T-shaped pins, thereby improving the shear resistance during stacking or bridging. The bottom of the supporting leg is flush with the bottom of the T-shaped pin, ensuring that the block component is stable when placed and avoiding tilting due to uneven force.
[0014] The B-shaped block component comprises three sets of parallel circumferential surfaces. One of the horizontal surfaces includes two bosses designed to simultaneously connect two independent building blocks, widening the support width. Each boss includes a cross-shaped slot, and the other horizontal surface includes two interconnected openings and at least three sets of T-shaped pins surrounding the openings. The interconnected openings reduce material usage and weight while also making it easier to access and operate the internal components.
[0015] As a preferred embodiment: the building block component also includes
[0016] A long plate member comprising a plurality of the strip grooves arranged along its length; the long plate member can be plugged into the strip grooves, and the block member can be selectively supported at the end and / or span position of the plate member;
[0017] A wide plate component is provided with two openings. The wide plate component can be connected across any of the block components. The wide plate component can cooperate with the boss to form a flat table surface.
[0018] A suspension member comprising a suspension unit and a suspension base connected to both ends of the suspension unit, wherein the suspension base can be selectively inserted into a cross slot in one of the strip grooves of the long plate member or one of the circumferential surfaces of the block member;
[0019] A right triangle member, comprising a first right-angled surface, a second right-angled surface, and a sloped surface, wherein the first right-angled surface is perpendicular to the second right-angled surface, the sloped surface is adapted to connect the first right-angled surface and the second right-angled surface, the first right-angled surface comprises the concave cavity, and the second right-angled surface comprises the opening;

[0021] a semi-cylindrical member comprising an axial cylindrical surface and a cylindrical curved surface, wherein the axial cylindrical surface is provided with the connecting structure of the first configuration, which comprises the concave cavity;
[0022] The cover plate accessory has a plurality of concave cavities arranged in an array on its bottom surface, which can be adapted to form a closed platform when multiple bosses are mounted on the concave cavities. The corners of the bottom surface of the cover plate accessory are provided with a plurality of columnar grooves. The cover plate accessory cooperates with the columnar running components to form a flatbed vehicle, achieving functional reuse.
[0023] The hemispherical accessory includes the columnar groove extending from the center of the sphere. The columnar connecting member is suitable for connecting two hemispherical accessories to form a spherical accessory, which can be used as a decorative piece or a rolling toy (such as a bowling ball) to enrich the fun of the amusement scene.
[0024] Preferably, the suspension base includes a knob, a rotating shaft, a rotation limit seat and a fixed reference seat, the rotating shaft passes through the rotation limit seat and the fixed reference seat, one end of the rotating shaft is connected to the suspension unit, and the other end of the rotating shaft is connected to the knob, and the knob is suitable for driving the rotation limit seat to rotate synchronously through the rotating shaft; the rotation limit seat includes a stop portion, or the fixed reference seat is provided with a stop portion at one end away from the knob; the suspension base is configured to be inserted into a groove of an external facility and has two forms:
[0025] Preparation state: The knob is aligned with the fixed reference seat, so that the suspension base can be inserted along the extension direction of the groove, and the stop portion abuts against the first side wall of the groove to prompt the insertion into place.
[0026] Locking mode: the knob rotates and deviates relative to the fixed reference seat, and the stop portion and the knob respectively abut against the first side wall and the second side wall of the groove to form a misalignment limit.
[0027] As a preference: the building blocks are made of EPP material, the weight of a single A-type block component is controlled at 2.4-2.8 kg, and the weight of a single B-type block component is controlled at 3.8-4.2 kg, which are much lower than traditional wooden or metal components, ensuring that children can carry and stack them independently, directly enhancing children's sense of participation and autonomy.
[0028] This design decouples fixed equipment (climbing frames / slides / jumping boxes) into standardized modules, allowing children to independently assemble and transform settings. Through lightweight components and intuitive plug-in connections (such as boss-opening engagement and knob-locking), children can independently complete facility construction. The maneuverability and diversity of building blocks allow children to explore mechanical principles (such as balance and load-bearing) through play, achieving a "learning by playing" approach. Furthermore, the process of independently creating their own playground enhances children's confidence and sense of responsibility. Compared to traditional fixed equipment, this design is more in line with the "child-led" philosophy of modern preschool education.

[0057] These modular building blocks connect in multiple directions through standardized interfaces like "boss-opening-cavity" and "slot-cross slot." This allows for the rapid construction of various scenarios, including climbing frames, long ramps, and seesaws. They can also be disassembled and reassembled at any time, resolving the "fixed, single-function" nature of traditional equipment. Children can independently decide how to combine components (e.g., adjusting the height of a climbing frame or changing the slope), leading the creation of the venue and fostering creativity, spatial thinking, and collaboration.
[0058] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0059] 1. The plug-in and pull-out coordination of the boss and the opening enables the longitudinal stacking of block components. The adaptation of the cavity and the boss supports horizontal or lateral connection, forming a multi-directional connection capability in three-dimensional space, breaking through the traditional unidirectional stacking limitation. With the unified strip groove, cross slot and columnar slot interface, a single component can be adapted to multiple functional components. It can be multi-directionally plugged in with long plate components, wide plate components, hanging components, etc. without the need for additional conversion joints, thereby improving the reuse rate of building block components.
[0060] 2. Columnar slots are compatible with both columnar connecting members and columnar traveling members, enabling rapid switching between static and dynamic functions, such as converting a fixed platform into a mobile vehicle. Furthermore, placing columnar slots at corners maximizes space utilization, provides edge connection points, and enhances the structure's torsional resistance.
[0061] 3. Ingenious interlacing and locking structures (such as the interlocking of T-shaped pins and cross slots, and the offset limiting of the suspension base) create multi-dimensional force support, making the connection strength of lightweight components comparable to that of traditional fixed structures, and the shear and pull-out resistance meet the needs of children's dynamic activities such as climbing and jumping. Furthermore, the strip grooves and cross slots (orthogonal strip grooves) serve as standardized interfaces, supporting the flexible insertion and matching of plate-like components and suspended components. The cross slot allows two components to interlace orthogonally (such as long plate components connected perpendicularly to each other), forming a three-dimensional grid structure and improving the overall load-bearing capacity.
[0062] 4. The building blocks come in a variety of shapes and are equipped with standardized interfaces, such as openings, recessed cavities, strip grooves, cross slots, and columnar slots, enabling the rapid construction of diverse outdoor entertainment and sports scenarios. Block-shaped components (Type A / Type B) serve as shared support units, enabling them to be used in multiple scenarios, including climbing frames, suspension devices, and fences. This reduces the number and variety of components and reduces system complexity. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0105] In this embodiment, the bottom surface of the cover assembly 28 is arrayed with a plurality of concave cavities 113.

[0106] To sum up, the specific technical effects are as follows:
[0107] The main structure of the building blocks is made of EPP material, which is light yet strong, making it easy for children to carry and build, providing them with practical operation. The lightweight nature of the product allows for flexible movement and quick reassembly, making it suitable for a variety of venues such as home gardens, parks, and kindergartens.
[0108] Second, through the three-level interface of "boss-opening-cavity" and the orthogonal design of the cross slot and the strip groove, a multi-dimensional mechanical bite is formed between the building blocks, which disperses the stress points and avoids structural loosening caused by stress in a single direction. The columnar grooves at the corners of the cavity and the plug-in area in the center of the strip groove allow for secondary reinforcement of key nodes through columnar connecting components, thereby improving the bearing capacity of the overall structure and making the built combination very stable. The stable structure provides safety for children when they are playing sports games.
[0109] 3. Breaking the limitation of traditional cognition that “weight is positively correlated with stability”: Through the lightweight characteristics of EPP materials and the multi-directional interlacing and node-reinforced structural design, the product can achieve the same or even higher structural stability while being significantly lighter than traditional wooden or metal amusement facilities, resolving the contradiction between “child-operable” and “safe and stable”.
