Zusammenfassung: | A modular construction system featuring an improved snap-fit connection element that can be incorporated into a wide variety of construction elements. These construction elements may be made in a range of sizes and used in a variety of fields such as, construction, toys, educational, machinery, products, jigs, two and three dimensional art, and signs. Various shapes disclosed are blocks, beams, radial-hubs, struts, rods, wires, panels, plates, rotators, adaptors, and locks. The preferred connection element comprises of a bendable pair of male ribs containing ridges that snap-fit into a pair of grooves of a mating female connection element. The grooves contain projections at roughly their midpoint and locate into mating indentations in the ridges. This connection element is more exotic than typically used, but can be snap-fit together or taken apart easily in a variety of directions while still allowing it to be molded inexpensively. |
