摘要:
A toy for rolling flexible material into structural members which may be assembled into any of a number of desired structures. The apparatus includes a base having bearing means formed on either end to support a tube assembly over which structural members are formed. One of the bearings is moveably mounted on the base and includes an enlarged opening to allow formed tubular structural members to be easily removed from the tube assembly. The tube assembly is comprised of inner and outer tubes rotatable with respect to each other and having elongated slots formed therein which are alignable in one position to allow flexible material to be inserted therein and gripped to facilitate the formation of a tubular structural member.

This invention discloses a kit for assembling light, airy, toy-like designs from blocks and solid sticks made of the same material throughout. The blocks preferably have tapered holes adapted to receive the sticks' ends therein. The holes and the sticks are adapted to compressively engage with one another upon insertion of selected ends of the sticks in the holes, thereby providing a secure grip by each hole's wall upon the end of the associated stick, locking it into the hole.

A set of building blocks readily assembled to form a variety of houses comprises several flexible wall elements, flexible roof elements, roof forming elements, roof connecting elements, cubic elements, and base boards which can be connected side by side to construct a base as a ground member of the houses. The wall elements can be bent into different configurations so as to act as side walls at one's desire.
摘要:
A group of building blocks made from plastic to create area- or volume-shaped designs including cube-shaped basic elements connecting elements by which means a basic element is connected to another basic element. The connecting elements are cylinders with rounded collars which are forced into undercut recesses in the base elements. The base elements may be straight prisms or other polyhedral shapes. Several base elements may be formed in one piece. The connectors may be integral or separate and the connectors and base elements may have communicating bores.
摘要:
An instructional toy for building multidimensional circular and arcuate structures which suggest non-circular configurations in appearance. The toy has a plurality of substantially elongated flexible but resilient arcuate elements and a plurality of multiple connecting devices for linking the arcuate elements endto-end and tangentially.

A building block set which allows the assembly of a variety of stances and/or postures of a canine figure includes two basic building block units. One is a quadrant of a right circular cylinder and the other is a somewhat larger unit having a rectangular base portion integral with and surmounted by a quadrant of a right circular cylinder. The inner faces of the first unit are of identical rectangular size and shape as is the smaller inner face of the other unit. The larger inner face of the other unit is twice the size of its smaller face and all of the inner faces are provided with recesses to receive pegs which join the units as desired.
