Description

Domaine technique : Jeux de construction - jouets - modélisme.Technical field: Construction toys - toys - model making.

Dans le secteur des jeux de construction et du modélisme la présente invention apporte de remarquables avantages techniques et didactiques par rapport à l'état actuel de la technique.In the sector of construction games and model making, the present invention provides remarkable technical and didactic advantages over the current state of the art.

Du point de vue technique, la fermeture automatique rend le montage plus sûr et élimine tout risque d'accident car elle exclut l'utilisation de vis , d'écrous, de clés, de tournevis, etc.Le montage à fermeture automatique s'effectue de façon rapide et douce et les constructions réalisées sont solides, robustes et transportables.From a technical point of view, automatic closing makes mounting safer and eliminates any risk of accident because it excludes the use of screws, nuts, keys, screwdrivers, etc. quickly and smoothly and the constructions produced are solid, robust and transportable.

La disposition des structures des encastrements pour le montage entre plusieurs éléments est adaptée à toutes les différentes formes géométriques des éléments, de sorte que les possibilités de construction sont illimitées.The arrangement of the recess structures for mounting between several elements is adapted to all the different geometric shapes of the elements, so that the possibilities of construction are unlimited.

Une fois la construction exécutée, les encastrements sous-jacents restent cachés, ne laissant à la vue qu'une surface uniforme, mais adaptable à chaque exigence constructive, afin de pouvoir réaliser tant des constructions de type créatif que de fidèles reproductions de modèles.Once the construction has been carried out, the underlying recesses remain hidden, leaving in view only a uniform surface, but adaptable to each constructive requirement, in order to be able to carry out both creative-type constructions and faithful reproductions of models.

Du point de vue didactique et éducatif, ce système contribue à développer la personnalité d'une façon dynamique et harmonieuse, dans le respect absolu du libre choix individuel. Ainsi, à travers la composition de formes et de couleurs, il stimule la créativité sans conditionnements prédéterminés et éveille l'intelligence et l'habileté manuelle.From a didactic and educational point of view, this system contributes to developing the personality in a dynamic and harmonious way, with absolute respect for individual free choice. Thus, through the composition of shapes and colors, it stimulates creativity without predetermined conditionings and awakens intelligence and manual skill.

Le but de l'invention est de réaliser un système de montage constitué d'éléments de forme géométrique assemblables entre eux à l'aide d'encastrements à fermeture automatique pour développer des constructions tridimensionnelles (comme des maisons, des trains, des camions, etc.) à des fins didactiques et éducatives, soit pour les enfants, soit pour les adolescents ou les adultes, de manière à pouvoir réaliser des constructions de jouets et du modélisme statique et dynamique d'une façon rapide, pratique et sûre sans avoir à utiliser d'instruments mécaniques. Ce système de montage à encastrement avec fermeture automatique constitue la base pour toutes les constructions possibles avec n'importe quel type d'élément, y compris les éléments complémentaires tels que fenêtres, portes, roues, moteurs, etc.The object of the invention is to provide a mounting system made up of elements of geometric shape which can be assembled together using self-closing recesses to develop three-dimensional constructions (such as houses, trains, trucks, etc. .) for didactic and educational purposes, either for children or for adolescents or adults, so that they can make toy constructions and static and dynamic modeling quickly, conveniently and safely without having to use mechanical instruments. This self-closing built-in mounting system forms the basis for all possible constructions with any type of element, including complementary elements such as windows, doors, wheels, motors, etc.

Selon l'invention, dans le cas d'un élément de forme rectangulaire par exemple, la face antérieure est un rectangle alors que la face postérieure possède, sur deux côtés adjacents, une bande en relief et saillante avec des trous équidistants entre eux, et sur les deux côtés opposés de cette même face, des pivots également équidistants entre eux ; tout ceci constitue la structure portante pour réaliser le système de montage à encastrement entre plusieurs éléments.According to the invention, in the case of an element of rectangular shape for example, the front face is a rectangle while the rear face has, on two adjacent sides, a raised and projecting strip with holes equidistant between them, and on the two opposite sides of this same face, pivots also equidistant from each other; all this constitutes the supporting structure for making the mounting system recessed between several elements.

Pour exécuter le montage, les pivots d'un élément de forme géométrique doivent toujours être insérés dans les trous situés sur la bande en correspondance avec la face antérieure d'un autre élément, car c'est seulement de cette façon qu'il est possible de réaliser la fermeture automatique des encastrements et d'obtenir une surface uniforme à la vue.To carry out the assembly, the pivots of a geometrical element must always be inserted in the holes located on the strip in correspondence with the front face of another element, because it is only in this way that it is possible to realize the automatic closing of the recesses and to obtain a uniform surface to the view.

De plus, tous les pivots et tous les trous ont des diamètres égaux et les mêmes distances entre eux de manière à permettre le montage entre plusieurs éléments de forme géométrique, de sorte que, par exemple, les pivots présents sur deux côtés d'un élément rectangulaire n° 1, puissent être insérés dans les trous de deux ou plusieurs autres éléments. Au contraire, les pivots de deux ou plusieurs éléments pourront être logés à l'intérieur des trous situés sur deux des côtés de l'élément rectangulaire n°1, et ainsi de suite. Ceci représente la façon correcte d'insérer les éléments. A l'intérieur des trous comme à l'extérieur des pivots se trouve une petite dent, afin de permettre le montage à encastrement des éléments avec une fermeture automatique ; il suffit d'une légère pression pour procéder à l'encastrement des éléments et d' une légère force inverse pour leur démontage. L'intérieur des pivots peut être vide ou plein. D'autre part, les pivots, et par conséquent les trous également, peuvent être de forme circulaire, ovale, carrée, rectangulaire, triangulaire, en losange, en queue d'aronde, etc...In addition, all the pivots and all the holes have equal diameters and the same distances between them so as to allow mounting between several elements of geometric shape, so that, for example, the pivots present on two sides of an element rectangular n ° 1, can be inserted in the holes of two or more other elements. On the contrary, the pivots of two or more elements can be housed inside the holes located on two of the sides of the rectangular element n ° 1, and so on. This represents the correct way to insert the elements. Inside the holes as on the outside of the pivots is a small tooth, to allow the flush mounting of elements with automatic closing; a slight pressure is enough to embed the elements and a slight reverse force to disassemble them. The interior of the pivots can be empty or full. On the other hand, the pivots, and therefore also the holes, can be circular, oval, square, rectangular, triangular, diamond, dovetail, etc.

Afin d'éviter des superpositions aux angles lors du montage de plusieurs éléments , la bande portant les trous laisse les angles découverts , au bout des deux côtés adjacents sur un espace égal à sa largeur. Cette bande sert non seulement à porter les trous, mais surtout à donner un plan d'appui, de stabilité et de direction à chaque élément qu'on y enclenche ; en effet, selon l'emplacement et l'inclinaison de cette bande par rapport à la face antérieure de l'élément on obtiendra des encastrements à plat, à angle droit ou avec des angulations différentes.To avoid overlapping the angles when mounting several elements, the strip carrying the holes leaves the exposed angles, at the end of the two adjacent sides over a space equal to its width. This strip serves not only to carry the holes, but above all to give a support, stability and direction plane to each element that is engaged there; in fact, depending on the location and the inclination of this strip relative to the anterior face of the element, recesses will be obtained flat, at right angles or with different angulations.

L'invention sera à présent décrite avec des références aux dessins ci-joints qui présentent à titre illustratif, et non limitatif, une forme préférable pour l'exécution de l'invention-même.The invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings which illustrate, by way of illustration and not limitation, a preferable form for carrying out the invention itself.

La fig.7 montre, à petite échelle, un cube construit avec des éléments à encastrement.Fig. 7 shows, on a small scale, a cube constructed with built-in elements.

La fig.8 montre, à petite échelle, des éléments ayant des formes géométriques différentes et des côtés d'attache droits et courbes montés par encastrement à plat.Fig. 8 shows, on a small scale, elements with different geometric shapes and straight and curved attachment sides mounted by flush mounting.

En référence à la fig.2 le numéro 1 indique la face antérieure de l'élément rectangulaire qui, uni par encastrement à d'autres éléments par les bords d'attache 8, coïncide si parfaitement qu'il cache à la vue le système d'encastrement situé au-dessous. (figures 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 et 8). La face postérieure 2 de l'élément rectangulaire (fig. 1) possède, sur deux côtés adjacents 11, une bande 5 en relief et saillante avec des trous 4 équidistants entre eux et, sur les côtés opposés 12 de la même face 2, des pivots 3 également équidistants entre eux ; tout ceci constitue la structure essentielle pour réaliser le système de montage par encastrement entre plusieurs éléments (figures 1, 3, 4, 5 et 6). En outre, tous les pivots 3 et les trous 4 ont des diamètres égaux et les mêmes distances entre eux de façon à permettre le montage entre plusieurs éléments de forme géométrique (fig. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 et 8). On peut remarquer (fig. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 e 6) que les pivots 3 dépassent légèrement au niveau de la face postérieure 2 sur les deux côtés adjacents 12 de l'élément rectangulaire (fig.1) sur lequel ils sont placés ; ceci crée sur chaque pivot 3 une petite dent 9, tout comme les trous 4 placés sur la bande 5 sont légèrement obstrués au niveau de la face antérieure 1, de sorte à former dans chaque trou 4 une petite dent 10 ; ainsi, le pivot 3, doté de la dent 9, entre par une légère pression dans le trou 4 de la bande 5 au niveau de la face antérieure 1 et, grâce à l'élasticité de la bande 5, il est retenu par la dent 10 du trou 4 qui bouche la sortie de l'encastrement sur la dent 9 du pivot 3 (fig. 3, 4, 5 et 6) ; ainsi, ces dents 9 et 10 servent à donner une fermeture automatique aux encastrements des éléments en montage. Les pivots 3 peuvent être, à l'intérieur, vides (fig. 1, 3, 4, 5 et 6) ou pleins. De plus, les pivots 3, et par conséquent les trous 4 également, peuvent avoir une forme circulaire (fig 1 et 2), ovale, carrée, rectangulaire, triangulaire, en losange, en queue d'aronde, etc.With reference to fig. 2, the number 1 indicates the front face of the rectangular element which, joined by embedding to other elements by the attachment edges 8, coincides so perfectly that it hides from view the system of recess located below. (Figures 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8). The rear face 2 of the rectangular element (fig. 1) has, on two adjacent sides 11, a strip 5 in relief and projecting with holes 4 equidistant from each other and, on opposite sides 12 of the same face 2, pivots 3 also equidistant from each other; all this constitutes the essential structure for carrying out the mounting system by embedding between several elements (FIGS. 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6). In addition, all the pivots 3 and the holes 4 have equal diameters and the same distances between them so as to allow mounting between several elements of geometric shape (fig. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8) . It can be noted (fig. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 e 6) that the pivots 3 slightly protrude at the level of the rear face 2 on the two adjacent sides 12 of the rectangular element (fig. 1) on which they are placed ; this creates on each pivot 3 a small tooth 9, just as the holes 4 placed on the strip 5 are slightly obstructed at the level of the front face 1, so as to form in each hole 4 a small tooth 10; thus, the pivot 3, endowed with the tooth 9, enters by light pressure into the hole 4 of the strip 5 at the level of the anterior face 1 and, thanks to the elasticity of the strip 5, it is retained by the tooth 10 of hole 4 which blocks the outlet of the installation on tooth 9 of pivot 3 (fig. 3, 4, 5 and 6); thus, these teeth 9 and 10 serve to give an automatic closure to the recesses of the elements in assembly. The pivots 3 can be, inside, empty (fig. 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6) or full. In addition, the pivots 3, and therefore also the holes 4, can have a circular shape (fig 1 and 2), oval, square, rectangular, triangular, diamond, dovetail, etc.

La bande 5 laisse découverts les côtés sur les angles opposés 6 et 7 de l'élément rectangulaire (fig, 1) sur un espace égal à sa largeur afin d'éviter des superpositions aux angles au moment du montage de plusieurs éléments. La bande 5 qui, par rapport à la face postérieure 2 , est saillante et en relief et qui porte les trous 4, offre , en correspondance de la face antérieure 1, un plan d'appui, de stabilité et de direction aux éléments qui s'y insèrent (figures 3, 4, 5 et 6) ; en effet, selon l'emplacement et l'inclinaison de cette bande 5 par rapport à la face antérieure 1, on aura des encastrements à plat, à angle droit ou avec d'autres angulations (figures 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 et 8). Les éléments, bien que présentant des formes géométriques différentes (1), des côtés d'attache droits (8) ou courbes (13), coïncident parfaitement , tant dans la réalisation de surfaces plates (figure 2, 3, et 8) comme les mosaïques, les puzzles, etc., que dans les constructions volumétriques (fig. 7) comme les cubes, les maisons, les camions, les trains, etc...The strip 5 leaves uncovered the sides on the opposite angles 6 and 7 of the rectangular element (fig, 1) over a space equal to its width in order to avoid overlaps at the angles when mounting several elements. The strip 5 which, with respect to the rear face 2, is protruding and in relief and which carries the holes 4, offers, in correspondence with the front face 1, a support, stability and direction plane for the elements which s 'insert there (Figures 3, 4, 5 and 6); indeed, depending on the location and the inclination of this strip 5 relative to the front face 1, there will be recesses flat, at right angles or with other angulations (Figures 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 , 7 and 8). The elements, although having different geometric shapes (1), straight (8) or curved (13) attachment sides, coincide perfectly, both in the realization of flat surfaces (Figure 2, 3, and 8) as the mosaics, puzzles, etc., only in volumetric constructions (fig. 7) such as cubes, houses, trucks, trains, etc.

La présente invention a été décrite dans sa forme préférée de réalisation, mais il est entendu que des variantes de construction pourront lui être apportées en pratique sans sortir du cadre de protection du présent monopole industriel.The present invention has been described in its preferred embodiment, but it is understood that construction variants may be made to it in practice without departing from the scope of protection of the present industrial monopoly.
