Definitions
- the present system for the creation of modular models and toys consists of a set of modular pieces, whose dimensions are a multiple of a given unit, which are joined together by rods or studs, which in the case of models, fix them to a base, which carries a series of holes through which said rods are introduced ensuring its structure, facilitating its assembly and disassembly, as well as allowing the rotation of some pieces with respect to others, providing a wide versatility of configurations.
- one of the systems used in the assembly of models and structures, as well as toys is the typical tongue and groove, in which one or several protruding studs of the pieces are inserted into the corresponding recesses of the same pieces, bearing all of them both male-female characteristics, one on each side, so that each piece is inserted into another, while receiving a third, and through this arrangement, toy assemblies or simple structures are made, needing obligatorily of a base plate to begin the assembly, provided, like the set of the elements, of the corresponding tongue and groove.
- the pieces need minimum dimensions in order to provide rigidity and slenderness to the structure, since they are conditioned by the need to provide them with wide contact surfaces in the tongue and groove; surfaces that paradoxically would be very small with respect to the size of the assembly, being able to run collapse risks. Otherwise, very large structures would be, and therefore more difficult to manipulate. That is why the models with this type of assembly are based on toy pieces, being only useful for simple configurations, without specific scales, since the dimensions of the pieces and the characteristics of the system do not allow it to be used for architectural models or / and engineer
- Another system for the construction of models is constituted by pieces that reproduce material and formally each of the materials used in construction: bricks, stones, scratches, tiles, ....
- the assembly is carried out by means of glue or mortar, of a way that reproduces reality as faithfully as possible. Due to these principles, although working with modulated pieces, due to the condition of construction materials, the inconvenience that cannot be modified or extracted or add other parts or components once they have been placed in their corresponding place.
- a base constituted by a large number of holes distributed throughout it, so that, on it, the pieces of the different construction elements are placed, which are generally provided with the same holes, in terms of density and distribution, intended to accommodate rods or studs, which give consistency to the structure, since after crossing one or more pieces, they are inserted into the holes in the base, thus consolidating the model or assembly.
- rods or studs that cross the pieces of the first courses or lower levels can be designed at one of its ends to nail other materials that allow it as cork, wood, etc., allowing greater possibilities of rotation and inclination.
- the modular pieces can be practically as small or narrow as desired, since their assembly does not depend on the structure of the pieces themselves. This allows working with more tight scales, so that the structures keep proportions and forms more faithful to what is intended to represent, in fact the pieces are likely to be manufactured with respect to to multiples of modules that are taken as a unit, in order to favor standardization.
- the base used for the model can be covered, in which it is possible to create fields, sports fields, parks and open spaces in general, since the different elements that are installed on these areas can go to the "ground” through these asparagus.

- Figure 8. Exploded detail of the columns located on the porch of the building represented in Figure 1.
- Figure 9. Exploded detail of the staircase of the building represented in figure 1.
- Figure 10 Representation of different elements of the system involved in the practical realization of the building represented in Figure 1, such as turning or leveling plates, elements for walls, covering and / or finishing elements,
- Figure 14. Perspective view of the assembly of a circular wall made by the system object of the invention.
- Figure 15. Perspective view of the assembly of a half-point vault made by the system object of the invention.
- a series of constructive elements are distinguished.
- a base plate (1) and the preparation of the ground by means of turning and / or leveling plates (1 ') on which the rest of the model is to be seated some vertical constructive elements of a linear nature such as walls (2) and partitions (2 '), others vertical also of a punctual nature such as pillars (3) and columns (3'), of horizontal elements such as slabs (4) and slabs (4 ' ), other elements with slope as part of tabs (5) pigeons for the reception of roofs, also has vertical communication elements such as stairs (7) and ramps.
- covering or finishing components are distinguished, such as interior (17) and exterior (17 ') floors, roofs (18).
- the exterior can be covered with landscaping and landscape elements such as land, grass, sand, rocks with bushes, trees (19), water sheet, swimming pool, or urban furniture type with street lamps, benches, fountains (20), etc.
- a modular coordination is established in its three dimensions.
- said coordination is conceived to be carried out by means of a base module "M", these dimensions being multiples or submultiples of said module, and the separation between through holes (21) the same for all parts of the system, the system incorporating rods or studs (24)
- the grid is defined as the hole density (21) that is prepared both the base plate (1) and the rest of the elements, the support surface of this base element being smooth.
- These holes or holes (21), can be through, or, some or all of them, can be partially blinded, presenting a stop at the desired height, so that certain assemblies and finishes are facilitated, since sometimes it is of interest that certain rods or studs (24) rest on these pieces with blinded holes and do not pass through them, avoiding placing longer studs, or that they protrude below or above.
- the base element (22), chosen design module or preferred multimodule, as a generic part of the assembly must have minimum acceptable dimensions for its execution, which in Cartesian coordinates would be expressed as: mx M, nx M, px M, being your choice depending on the reticle and the scale.
- the design module can have larger, equal or smaller dimensions than the construction elements they represent. That is to say, although, in principle, we will always try to operate with base elements equal to the type construction elements, the project grid and the scale - as a condition of size - can lead to a design module grouping several construction elements, or Be part of a constructive element.
- a base element or design module (22) or particular preferred multimodule (23) is established for each generic constructive element to be considered, such as: walls (2), partitions (2 '), screeds (4), slabs (4' ), pavements, ...
- each base element (22) will have one or more multimodules (23) associated, which are defined as multiples or submultiples of the base elements (22).
- all or part of these base elements (22) or multimodules (23) are prepared so that they can be easily divided into each of the essential dimensions at constant intervals and equal to the base module M and the design module (22) respectively, and thereby achieve the appropriate dimensions.
- a base element or design module (22) is a constructive, or non-constructive element, capable of undergoing a rigid and absolute modular coordination, generally, by nature, highly repetitive, locked or rigged and therefore susceptible to being materialized as multimodules in order to speed up the assembly.
- rods (24), rods or studs which pass through these construction elements vertically, through the through holes (21), since when the different pieces are mounted, these holes coincide, at least two of they in case of rotation of pieces, along the vertical structure, so that the length of these rods (24) will be adequate to the structure that is intended to be joined and fastened.
- the section or thickness of the rods (24) is that which allows it to be introduced inside the holes (21) with a certain pressure so that it can slide inside them with a minimum effort but that prevents its involuntary extraction.
- rods (24), stud or rod have the mission of crossing one or more elements, among which the base plate (1) may be included.
- stabbing rods (24) are used at one of its ends in order to fix the structure to that surface.
- the design modules (22) are established for each of the construction elements.
- the assembly is started by the base plate (1), on which the leveling and / or turning plates (1 ') are established, with which the margin is created and on which, according to attached figures, they support the housing, the well, etc.
- the second course is continued, and successive, so that a rig similar to the one proposed is established, in order to stiffen the assembly.
- a rig similar to the one proposed is established, in order to stiffen the assembly.
- certain singular elements such as toilets, bidet (10), sinks (12), ... and others such as doors and windows (8).
- the interior pavement (17) not forgetting the bathtubs (11), showers, kitchen furniture (15, 16), ... and exterior pavement (17 ') of barbecue, patio, etc.
- the slab of the first and covered floor of the same floor continues. Until the last details are concluded, they will be carried out with the covering and finishing elements, such as placement of fountains, pavements (17) or exterior floors, ... tile roofs, slate, ..., based of fabrics, plastic or other covering material, with or without relief, so that it allows the emulation of the element to be represented, which will be fixed with sharp studs (24), or by means of adhesive, which hide the perforations (21) of the different elements and the ends of the rods (24).
- the covering and finishing elements such as placement of fountains, pavements (17) or exterior floors, ... tile roofs, slate, ..., based of fabrics, plastic or other covering material, with or without relief, so that it allows the emulation of the element to be represented, which will be fixed with sharp studs (24), or by means of adhesive, which hide the perforations (21) of the different elements and the ends of the rods (24).
- the pre-assemblies are made outside the structure and are made by superimposing simpler elements, matching the holes (21) of the different elements to be crossed by one or more studs (24) thus achieving a firm and supportive assembly .
- these studs (24) are introduced creating the different shapes.
- any angle value that admits the coincidence of a hole (21) of a construction element with a hole of the own can be tilted base, so that it allows the passage of the connecting rod (24) of all these elements.
- any type of joining means can be used to fix it as glues, glues, etc., or with the single use of the rods or studs (24) under pressure by the respective holes (21), it is sufficient to keep the structure upright, having the possibility of disassembly to make any modification, enlargement or the total disassembly of the model.
