Disclosed herein are folded sheets of material for use as a structural member and assembly thereof. According to an aspect, a sheet of material defines one or more tabs, slots, and a plurality of fold lines. The fold lines are spaced such that folding the sheet along the fold lines places the slots in substantial alignment for receiving the at least one tab such that a structural member having a web formed in an interior thereof is formed.

A modular frame assembly comprises a first frame member, a second frame member, and a node. The first frame member is connected to the node by a first connector. The second frame member is connected to the node by a second connector. There may be a third frame member connected to the node by a third connector. The first frame member may be aligned along an x-axis. The second frame member may be aligned along a y-axis. The third frame member may be aligned along a z-axis.

A prefabricated adaptable lightweight hollow core construction system comprising at least a unit (30) which may be extruded of plastic and which comprises a plurality of compression-resistant, flexibly connected, elongated, hollow element pairs (40). Each pair comprises a triangular base element protruding from one side of a flat flexible sheet and an octagonal head element flexibly connected to the uppermost angle of the base element. Element pairs have undersized spaces (42) between them adapted to receive elements in interlocking engagement. Adjacent head elements (36) may be manually swung apart on flexible connections (38) and forced into adjacent undersized negative spaces (42) to subsequently form rigid right-angle corners at incremental points (34a) or other shapes formed (41, 32a, 34c, 34d, 34e) along the unit. Elements of a second unit (30a) may be alternately and sequentially interlocked with those remaining elements of the first unit that are not engaged in corner formation. This rigidly extends the straight sides of right-angle corners. Forced interlocking produces high compression/tension values with concomitant rigidity within and throughout assembled constructions. Force to produce high compression/tension values is generated by leverage action of partially interlocked elements (36), one upon another between the manually driven element and the element with the highest values. Units may have an additional integral fastener (52) and/or auxiliary fasteners (54, 55, 56, 57, 58) to secure end elements (48), and rigid connectors (60, 66), or flexible connectors (61) for attachment of additional units and accessories (62, 64, 68); a cutting guide for accurate removal of unit portions (44). The unit requires no skill to assemble and can be reused. Unused portions may be used in future constructions and existing constructions may be disassembled and its units readapted into new constructions.

A construction set for the erection of support structures comprises supporting rods and at least one connecting joint containing a plurality of mutually parallel chambers. Cylindrical beads are formed on the ends of supporting rods. Those beads are inserted into the cylindrical chambers of the connecting joint. The chambers are dimensioned to form a clearance relative to the beads in order to facilitate the insertion of the beads into the chambers. The beads are formed by a rolling-in of the free ends of the supporting rods.

A lattice grid assembly comprising a plurality of spaced, parallel, longitudinal rods secured to lateral clamping bars. The bars have pockets formed by resilient gripping members adapted to engage bosses on the sides of the rods when they are inserted into the pockets. Pairs of adjacent gripping members are urged against the rods by a screw tightened wedge interposed between each pair.

The structure comprises, in combination, lattice elements (1) with successive sides (1A) inclined in opposite directions; longitudinal connecting pieces (1B) and partial longitudinal connecting pieces (1C) for the joining of successive lattice clients (1) in alignment with each other; links (3) for connection between longitudinal connecting pieces (1B, 1C) of adjacent lattice elements (1) which have been brought together; components for mechanical connection (5, 7) between successive lattice elements (1) and/or components for mechanical and electrical connection (24, 26) between successive lattice elements; adaptors (61, 71) which may be fitted to said longitudinal connecting pieces (1B, 1C) for lighting or consumer units to be combined with the reticular structure.

A vehicle radiator core assembly that includes a plurality of coolant tubes and a core protector mounted at the front of the core on the upstream side of the coolant air stream to intercept damaging flying foreign objects carried by the air stream, the protector including an open network of intersecting rigid strips arranged on edge relative to the core with each strip shaped to receive another strip so as to be self-supporting prior to permanent joining of the strips.
