Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building block technology, specifically to a magnetic building block. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional building block toys are typically assembled using shape matching or interlocking methods, resulting in relatively fixed assembly methods and limited assembly positions. While some magnetic building blocks exist on the market, their magnetic attachment points are often limited to specific faces or edges of the blocks, restricting the flexibility and creativity of assembly. For example, common magnetic building blocks only have magnets on the top and bottom surfaces or around the edges of the blocks, requiring precise alignment of the magnets during assembly; otherwise, they cannot be assembled. This, to some extent, reduces children's freedom of play and the effectiveness of fostering creativity. Therefore, developing a magnetic building block that can overcome the limitations of traditional assembly and allow blocks to be attached to any position is of significant practical importance.

[0025] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1-5 This embodiment provides a magnetic building block, including a building block body 1. The building block body 1 is hollow inside, and multiple receiving cavities 101 are provided on the inner side of the building block body 1. Each receiving cavity 101 houses a magnetic part 2, which can move up, down, left, and right within the receiving cavity 101. When assembling the building blocks, due to the presence of the magnetic parts 2, adjacent building blocks are assembled side by side, and the corresponding magnetic parts 2 are attracted together. Since the magnetic parts 2 can move up, down, left, and right within the receiving cavity 101, two building blocks can be assembled at any point on the side, breaking through the limitation of traditional magnetic building blocks that can only be attracted at a specific position. This greatly improves the flexibility and creativity of assembly, providing users with a wider space for imagination and creative freedom. The positioning function at any position stimulates the user's imagination and creativity, making the assembly process more interesting and challenging.

[0027] Specifically, the building block body 1 includes multiple side panels 11, a top cover 12, and a bottom plate 13. The side panels 11 are joined end to end to form a hollow polygonal enclosure. The top cover 12 and the bottom plate 13 respectively close the top and bottom of the polygonal enclosure. The side panels 11, top cover 12, and bottom plate 13 are assembled to form a polygonal prism. For example, when there are three side panels 11, the building block body 1 is a triangular prism; when there are four side panels 11, the building block body 1 is a quadrangular prism; when there are five side panels 11, the building block body 1 is a pentagonal prism, and so on. Different shaped building block bodies 1 can be assembled into different shapes, developing the user's creativity and imagination.

[0028] In this embodiment, the top of the top cover 12 has protrusions 121 arranged in an array, and the bottom of the base plate 13 has grooves 131 arranged in an array that match the protrusions 121. When the building blocks are assembled, the protrusions 121 and the grooves 131 interlock with each other. Specifically, there can be four protrusions 121 and four grooves 131. The protrusions 121 and the grooves 131 can be fully inserted or staggered, which increases the fun of assembling.

[0029] Preferably, the receiving cavity 101 is located at the intersection of two adjacent side plates 11. At this time, the magnetic suction part 2 is located at the corner of the block body 1, and the two blocks can fit perfectly in the horizontal direction during assembly without misalignment.

[0030] Preferably, a baffle 102 is vertically provided at the intersection of two adjacent side plates 11, forming a receiving cavity 101 with the two adjacent side plates 11. A reinforcing rib 1021 is provided on the side of the baffle 102 away from the receiving cavity 101, which can improve the strength of the baffle 102 and improve the stability of the building block. One end of the reinforcing rib 1021 supports the protrusion 121, improving the strength of the protrusion 121, thereby improving the durability and stability of the building block.

[0031] The top cover 12 and the bottom plate 13 are integrally formed with or detachably connected to the polygonal enclosure. In this embodiment, the top cover 12 is integrally formed with the polygonal enclosure, and the bottom plate 13 is detachably connected to the polygonal enclosure. Each side plate 11 is provided with a fixing post 111 on its side, and the top of the bottom plate 13 is provided with multiple pins 132 that match the fixing posts 111. The pins 132 are inserted into the fixing posts 111 to seal the polygonal enclosure, which is simple and convenient to operate. Specifically, in this embodiment, there are four fixing posts 111 and four pins 132.

[0032] In this embodiment, the magnetic attraction part 2 is a cylindrical magnet. Cylindrical magnets have a strong magnetic field at their end faces, making them suitable for applications requiring a strong magnetic field along the axial direction, and even more so for this embodiment.

[0033] In this embodiment, the material of the building block body 1 can be plastic, wood, metal, or other materials suitable for making building blocks, and the sides of the building block body 1 can be smoothed or textured to meet different usage needs and aesthetic requirements. In addition, the sides of the building block body 1 can also be provided with multiple guide grooves for the building blocks to move up and down. Of course, the guide grooves on different building blocks are staggered to facilitate the splicing of the building blocks.

[0034] In summary, this embodiment, by incorporating the movable magnetic attachment 2, enables the building blocks to be attached and assembled at any position. This overcomes the limitation of traditional magnetic building blocks, which are only attached to specific locations, greatly improving the flexibility and creativity of the assembly process and providing users with a wider range of imagination and creative freedom. The ability to position the blocks at any location stimulates users' imagination and creativity, making the assembly process more fun and challenging.

However, the present invention is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments.
