Stabilizing Connector and Building Toy Kit - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240050869 titled 'Stabilizing Connector and Building Toy Kit

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a stabilizing connector and construction toy kit. The kit includes tiles that are connected by a sidewall and have apertures to receive connection studs from the stabilizing connector. The connector reduces movement of the tiles in all three dimensions and can support accessories like trees, buildings, or signs.

• The construction toy kit includes tiles connected by a sidewall and apertures.
• The stabilizing connector has connection studs that can secure tiles together.
• The connector reduces movement of the tiles in all three dimensions.
• The connector base has a post to support accessories like trees, buildings, or signs.

Potential Applications

• Educational toy for children to learn about construction and spatial awareness.
• Creative play for children to build structures and scenes.
• Architectural modeling tool for professionals to visualize designs.
• Prototyping tool for engineers to test and iterate on designs.

Problems Solved

• Instability and movement of construction toy structures.
• Difficulty in securely connecting tiles together.
• Limited support for accessories or additional elements in construction toy kits.

Benefits

• Enhanced stability and reduced movement of constructed structures.
• Easy and secure connection of tiles using the stabilizing connector.
• Versatility in adding accessories or elements to the construction toy kit.
• Promotes creativity, spatial thinking, and problem-solving skills in children.

Original Abstract Submitted

a stabilizing connector and construction toy kit are provided. the construction toy kit contains a plurality of tiles, each comprising a first and second plate connected by a sidewall, and at least one aperture defined by the first plate and configured to receive one of a plurality of connection studs extending from an inner surface of a stabilizing connector base. that is, the plurality of connection studs may be configured to, simultaneously, removably secure with at least one aperture of a first tile and at least one aperture of a second tile. in this manner, the stabilizing connector is operative to reduce movement of any tiles secured with the stabilizing connector in all three dimensions with respect to one another. a post extending from an outer surface of the base of the stabilizing connector may be operative to support at least one accessory, such as a tree, building, or sign.
