[0029] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.
[0030] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model discloses a splicing toy, including splicing blocks 1 and a plurality of connecting posts 2 for connecting a pair of splicing blocks 1. The outer side of the splicing block 1 is provided with a splicing connection surface 11, and the splicing connection surface 11 is provided with a placement groove 111 for installing the connecting posts 2. The splicing block 1 is divided into an upper connecting block 12 and a lower connecting block 13 that can be detachably connected to each other relative to the placement groove 111. The splicing block 1 is provided with a limiting installation space 14 connected to the placement groove 111 inside. The connecting posts 2 are provided with outwardly protruding snap-fit parts 21. The two ends of the connecting posts 2 are inserted into and snapped into the limiting installation space 14 of the splicing block 1 through the snap-fit parts 21 to realize the connection between the splicing blocks 1.
[0031] This application provides a placement groove 111 for mounting the connecting post 2 on the splicing connection surface 11, and a limiting installation space 14 connected to the placement groove 111 is provided inside the splicing block 1. The position of the splicing block 1 relative to the placement groove 111 is divided into a detachably connected upper connecting block 12 and a lower connecting block 13, so that the connecting post 2 can be placed in the limiting installation space 14. At the same time, a snap-fit part 21 is provided on the connecting post 2, so that both ends of the connecting post 2 are inserted into and snapped into the limiting installation space 14 of the splicing block 1 through the snap-fit part 21 to realize the connection between the splicing blocks 1, thereby realizing a stable connection between each splicing block 1, making each splicing block 1 firmly connected together, and ensuring the stability of the toy. In addition, this assembly method is more diversified than the traditional method, requiring the snap-fit part 21 and the connecting post 2 to cooperate to realize the splicing, further improving the user's coordination and thinking ability.
[0032] The design of the snap-fit part 21 on the connecting column 2 can take many forms. The snap-fit part 21 can be a fixed limiting part 212 that is fixedly connected to both ends of the connecting column 2, or it can be a movable limiting part 211 that is detachably connected to both ends of the connecting column 2. As long as the two ends of the connecting column 2 are inserted into and snapped into the limiting installation space 14 of the splicing block 1 through the snap-fit part 21 to realize the connection between the splicing blocks 1, so as to firmly connect each splicing block 1 together.
[0033] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in this application, the snap-fit part 21 includes a movable limiting part 211 detachably connected to one end of the connecting post 2 and a fixed limiting part 212 fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting post 2. When splicing and installing the splicing block 1, the movable limiting part 211 and the fixed limiting part 212 are respectively disposed in different splicing blocks 1.
[0034] During the assembly of two splicing blocks 1, the two splicing blocks 1 are first disassembled into an upper connecting block 12 and a lower connecting block 13. Then, the connecting post 2 is placed into the connecting block of one of the splicing blocks 1, so that the movable limiting part 211 is placed within the limiting installation space 14, and the fixed limiting part 212 is placed in the corresponding connecting block of the other splicing block 1. After the fixed limiting part 212 is placed in the corresponding connecting block of the other splicing block 1, the movable limiting part 211 in the splicing block 1 is adjusted. In this process, the fixed limiting part 212 plays a relatively fixed role, preventing unnecessary displacement of the splicing block 1 during the splicing process, while the movable limiting part 211 plays a flexible limiting role during the splicing process, which can be easily assembled and disassembled with other splicing blocks 1. The movable limiting part 211 and the fixed limiting part 212 work together and are respectively set in different splicing blocks 1 to ensure a tight connection between the splicing blocks 1.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the connecting post 2 is slidably connected within the placement slot 111. Sliding the connecting post 2 within the placement slot 111 allows for flexible adjustments to the assembly according to individual needs, increasing the toy's assembly methods and enhancing its fun.
[0036] Reference Figure 5 As shown, the assembly toy also includes connecting posts 3, each with a connecting end. The top or side surface of each assembly block 1 has a slot 15 for inserting and removing the connecting ends of the connecting posts 3, allowing two assembly blocks 1 to be connected via the connecting posts 3. The connecting posts 3 have connecting ends at both ends for connecting with other assembly blocks 1; the top or side surface of each assembly block 1 has a slot 15 for inserting and removing the connecting ends of the connecting posts 3, thereby achieving connection between the assembly blocks 1.
[0037] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the building block toy also includes an end cap 4, which can be inserted into the slot 15 to cover the slot 15 where the connecting post 3 is not inserted. The end cap 4 is provided to make the building block 1 more aesthetically pleasing when the connecting post 3 is not connected, and also to prevent the groove of the slot 15 from scratching the user's skin.
[0038] Combination Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the assembly toys of this application have various structures, allowing users to flexibly assemble them according to their needs and preferences. The structures of the assembly toys include quadrangular prism structures and triangular prism structures. The cross-section of the quadrangular prism can be rectangular or square, and it can also have a through-hole groove 16 at the inner center. The triangular prism can also take various forms; its cross-section can be isosceles triangle or right triangle, and it can also have a through-hole 16 at the side center, just like the quadrangular prism, and even grooves can be set at the edges.
[0039] Reference Figure 10 As shown, to further enhance the fun of the toy, the structure of the assembly toy in this application can also be a combination of various structures, such as a combination of several spaced-apart prisms 18 and connecting parts 17 connecting the prisms 18, with the connecting surface 11 provided on the outer surface of the prisms 18. The number of prisms 18 can be two, three, or more; in this application, the number of prisms 18 is two.
