20080220690 | Toy Building System with Function Bricks - A toy building system with function bricks adapted to perform a function in response to a mechanical trigger action; sensor bricks with a sensor adapted to produce an output in response to a mechanical trigger action; and logic bricks with an input responsive to a sensor brick output and adapted to perform a logic function on the sensor brick output and to produce a logic output. The sensor brick output and the logic brick output are arranged in a first uniform manner relative to the coupling means, and the sensor output action and the logic output action are of uniform physical nature. The logic brick input and the function brick input are arranged in a second uniform manner relative to the coupling means. The function brick input is responsive to a logic brick output and adapted to perform the function in response to a logic brick output. | 09-11-2008 |
20080311819 | Toy Building Set - A toy building set with toy building elements with coupling means for releasably interconnecting the toy building elements, which further comprises outer and inner toy building elements with a longitudinal direction. The inner toy building elements are receivable in the outer toy building elements, and the inner toy building elements are slideable in the outer toy building elements along their parallel longitudinal directions. The outer toy building elements can be interconnected in their longitudinal directions to form a composite outer toy building element, and the inner toy building elements can be interconnected in their longitudinal directions to form a composite inner toy building element that can be slideably received in the composite outer toy building element. | 12-18-2008 |

Additionally the walls of the building block have substantially similar and uniform thickness. in a preferred embodiment, the building block ( | 05-09-2013 |
20140051321 | FAUCET DECORATIVE SYSTEM - The use of a faucet adapted to receive toy construction building blocks so that they can be used to decorate a faucet. | 02-20-2014 |
20140179195 | Building Blocks and a Wand Having Magnetic Properties Therefor - A toy combination includes a plurality of children's building blocks, each of the building blocks having a ferromagnetic material, and a wand with at least a portion that is magnetic, the wand capable of attracting the plurality of children's building blocks. The wand may have end lower ends in a variety of configurations to pick up the building blocks. | 06-26-2014 |
20150314209 | TRANSFORMATION TOY CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM - A transformation construction system includes a toy figure set having a plurality of interconnectible building elements that are configured to connect to building elements of a construction set. The toy figure set includes a torso building element and a pelvis building element that interconnect with each other with an interference fit between a stud of the pelvis building element and a recess of the torso building element. A construction explanation identifies a first design mode that includes the toy figure set, a second design mode that includes the toy figure set and is distinct from the first design mode, and a set of instructions that show a transformation between the first design mode and the second design mode without disassembling the toy figure set and the plurality of building elements. | 11-05-2015 |
20150314210 | TOY CONSTRUCTION SET - A toy construction set includes a toy figure set that includes toy figure building elements configured to repeatably connect and disconnect to each other to form at least a portion of a toy figure, the toy figure building elements including at least two core toy figure building elements, each of the core toy figure building elements including at least a first set of coupling elements separated relative to each other by a distance that is an integer multiple of a center-to-center spacing, where the coupling elements of the first set of coupling elements are configured to allow the core toy figure building elements to repeatably connect and disconnect to other building elements, and each of the core toy figure building elements comprises at least one coupling element configured to allow a connected building element to articulate in more than one plane. | 11-05-2015 |
20160059144 | Building Block Universal Joint System - A system and method of assembling building blocks involves a posable metal linkage comprising a plurality of ends and a Lego-like brick having means for coupling at least one of the plurality of ends of the posable linkage within a cavity located therein. | 03-03-2016 |
20160158662 | ASSEMBLY STRUCTURE OF BUILDING BLOCK - The present application provides an assembly structure of a building block, and particularly relates to an assembly structure allowed to be engaged with secondary main bodies of additional building blocks from various directions and generating the encasing and decorating effects. The assembly structure includes a main body of a building block. An exterior of the main body is provided with connection surfaces. The connection surfaces face toward various directions of the circumferences of the main body, respectively. Each of the connection surfaces includes at least one stud to be engaged with an engaging recess of a secondary main body of an additional building block. Therefore, the main body can be engaged with the secondary main bodies of the additional building blocks from various directions to enhance the overall aesthetic appearance and make assembling building blocks more convenient. | 06-09-2016 |
