Constructional kit

A constructional kit including a number of members each having a hexagonal cross section, each of the members including two ends each having a hexagonal pyramid shape including six tapered surfaces, a stub and a recess being formed alternatively on the tapered surfaces of each of the members, each of the stubs being engageable with either of the recesses so that the members can be assembled in a spatial configuration.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
(a) Field of the Invention 
The present invention relates to a constructional kit. 
(b) Description of the Prior Art 
Typical constructional kit, particularly toy building block, includes a 
plurality of blocks and/or bars which can be assembled together in various 
shapes. However, generally, the constructional kit can not be assembled in 
a spatial configuration. 
The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate the 
afore-described disadvantages of the conventional constructional kits. 
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a 
constructional kit which can be assembled to a spatial configuration. 
In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a 
constructional kit including a number of members each having a hexagonal 
cross section, each of the members including two ends each having a 
hexagonal pyramid shape including six tapered surfaces, a stub and a 
recess being formed alternatively on the tapered surfaces of each of the 
members, each of the stubs being engageable with either of the recesses so 
that the members can be assembled in a spatial configuration. 
Further objectives and advantages of the present invention will become 
apparent from a careful reading of the detailed description provided 
hereinbelow, with appropriate reference to the accompanying drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
Referring to the drawings and initially to FIGS. 1 to 4, a constructional 
kit in accordance with the present invention comprises generally a 
plurality of members 10, 30, 40 of different lengths as shown in FIG. 3. 
Each of the members 10, 30, 40 has a substantially hexagonal cross section 
including six side surfaces and includes two ends each having a hexagonal 
pyramid shape including six tapered surfaces 20. The preferable 
inclinations of the tapered surfaces 20 are 30.degree., 45.degree. and 
60.degree.. A stub 21 and a recess 22 are formed alternatively on the 
tapered surfaces 20 of the members 10, 30, 40. 
For the longer member 10 as shown in FIG. 3, two depressions 23 are formed 
in each of the side surfaces thereof. For the member 30 of shorter length 
than that of the member 10, only one depression 23 is formed in each of 
the side surfaces thereof. No depressions 23 are formed in the side 
surfaces of the shortest member 40. The stub 21 is engageable with either 
of the recesses 22 and either of the depressions 23. 
As shown in FIGS. 5-1 to 5-5, illustrated are five examples of the members 
10, 30, 40 when assembled. The members 10, 30, 40 can be assembled in a 
spatial configuration as shown in FIGS. 5-3 to 5-5. 
Accordingly, the constructional kit in accordance with the present 
invention can be assembled in a spatial configuration. 
Although this invention has been described with a certain degree of 
particularity, it is to be understood that the present disclosure has been 
made by way of example only and that numerous changes in the detailed 
construction and the combination and arrangement of parts may be resorted 
to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as 
hereinafter claimed.
