[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Please see Figures 1-2 In this embodiment of the utility model, this interlocking building block toy includes multiple building blocks 1. The building blocks 1 are divided into a middle extension block 3 and an edge decorative block 2. The middle extension block 3 is a cuboid structure with two rectangular end faces and four rectangular side faces. Along the length direction of the middle extension block 3, a first dovetail tenon 5 is integrally formed on each of the four side faces of the middle extension block 3. The four first dovetail tenons 5 are of the same size and are distributed at the same height position on the four side faces.
[0022] The edge decorative block 2 is also a cuboid structure with two rectangular end faces and four rectangular side faces. Along the length of the edge decorative block 2, its outer side is a flat decorative surface. On the side opposite to the decorative surface 8, a second dovetail tenon 10 is integrally formed. The specifications of the second dovetail tenon 10 are the same as those of the first dovetail tenon 5, and it can match the first dovetail groove 4.
[0023] The mating surfaces 6 of the interlocking intermediate extension block 3 and the edge decorative block 2 are flat. When the second dovetail tenon 10 of the edge decorative block 2 is inserted into the first dovetail groove 4 of the intermediate extension block, the end face of the edge decorative block 2 and the side face of the intermediate extension block 3 fit tightly together, and the mating surfaces 6 are completely matched without any obvious gaps.
[0024] During the assembly process, the user can insert the first dovetail tenon 5 of one intermediate extension block 3 into the first dovetail groove 4 of another intermediate extension block 3 to achieve horizontal splicing of the two intermediate extension blocks 3.
[0025] Alternatively, the second dovetail tenon 10 of the edge decorative block 2 can be inserted into the first dovetail groove 4 of the middle extension block to achieve the splicing of the edge decorative block 2 and the middle extension block 3, and the flat decorative surface of the edge decorative block 2 can be used for secondary creation.
[0026] When the building block toy is assembled to the end, the second dovetail tenons 10 of the two edge decorative blocks 2 can be inserted into the two first dovetail grooves 4 of the middle extension block 3 at the end to close the end.
[0027] In one specific embodiment, the four sides of the intermediate extension block 3 are integrally formed with a first dovetail groove 4, and the specifications of the first dovetail groove 4 are uniform.
[0028] A second dovetail groove 9 is integrally formed on the side opposite to the decorative surface. The specifications of the second dovetail groove 9 are the same as those of the first dovetail groove 4, and it can match the first dovetail tenon 5.
[0029] The mating surface 6 of the interlocking intermediate extension block 3 and the edge decorative block 2 is an arc surface. The radius of curvature of the arc surface is the same as the radius of curvature of the arc decorative surface of the edge decorative block 2. When the first dovetail tenon 5 of the intermediate extension block 3 is inserted into the second dovetail groove of the edge decorative block 2, the mating surface 6 fits tightly to ensure a stable splicing.
[0030] The building block toys in this embodiment are suitable for building shapes with curved outlines.
[0031] This embodiment provides an optimized modular building block toy compared to Embodiment 1:
[0032] The corners of the first dovetail tenon 5 and the second dovetail tenon 10 are both designed with rounded corners. Correspondingly, the corners of the first dovetail groove 4 and the second dovetail groove 9 are also rounded corners with the same radius, ensuring smooth tenon and mortise fit while minimizing the safety hazards caused by sharp corners.
[0033] On the four sides of the middle extension block 3, two opposite sides are provided with first dovetail tenons 5, and the other two opposite sides are provided with first dovetail grooves 4. This design allows the middle extension block 3 to be directly plugged into other middle extension blocks 3 without distinguishing the direction when splicing, making it more convenient to use.
[0034] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
