Definitions

  • the invention described herein entails a construction system for assembling a series of pre-fitted components for building a previously-conceived structure or for progressively developing a structure to meet the requirements and imagination of the builder.
  • Said system can be used for assembling real-life structures or make-believe constructions (i.e., as a toy construction set) which share similar characteristics with the former and whose possibilities are limited only by the imagination of the builder.
  • the material used in manufacturing the construction components would preferably be plastic or other material which meets the necessary requirements in terms of endurance, rigidity and elasticity.
  • the system is comprised of five essential components for building either a real-life, imaginary, customary or slightly-complex structure.
  • the five components of the construction system are as follows: upright supports, partition walls, floor sections, floor-connecting pieces and roof sections.
  • Patents for construction systems based on pre-fabricated components do exist (e.g., DE-B-1.113.404).
  • the upright supports are rectangular, not square, in section; the inside of the support base is hollow; and the grooves run only partially along the sides of the support (Fig. 7), and therefore their position cannot be changed nor can they be inverted.
  • Said upright supports are always the same length, i.e., the height of one storey.
  • To add height to a structure several intermediate pieces fitted to each of the two supports to be joined (Fig. 2, item 17,17',17',18,19 & 20), and frames (Fig. 8, item 24) are needed in addition. This makes it a complicated system, and the greater the height of the structure the less sturdy the construction is.
  • the floor sections are joined together using several connecting pieces until the desired shape and extension is obtained.
  • the upright supports are placed at the open corners of the assembled floor section.
  • the rebates and ribs of the partition walls are slid through the grooves of every two consecutive upright supports.
  • roof or floor sections are joined together as described above. Once assembled, the roof or floor sections are place on top of the upright supports, and the first storey is then completed.
  • New pieces can then be joined together as described above to continue building as many additional stories as desired (Fig. 1).
