Abstract

A linkage brick assembly, comprising: a least one first linkage brick, at least one second linkage brick and at least one third linkage brick, each linkage brick comprising a top face, a bottom face and four side faces between the top face and the bottom face. Each of the side faces of the first linkage brick forms a traverse engaging groove extending laterally. Each of two opposite side faces of the four side faces of the second linkage brick forms a traverse engaging protrusion extending laterally and each of the other two opposite side faces forms a vertical engaging portion extending vertically. Each of the side faces of the third linkage brick forms a vertical engaging groove extending vertically. Each of the traverse engaging grooves of the first linkage brick is used to engage with each of the traverse engaging protrusions of the second linkage brick through lateral sliding. Each of the vertical engaging grooves of the third linkage brick is used to engage with each of the vertical engaging protrusions of the second linkage brick through downward sliding. Due to the above structures, fast assembly of the linkage brick assembly of a large area can be achieved by means of the interlocking of only three types of linkage bricks.

Dependent claims

A linkage brick assembly, comprising:

at least one first linkage brick comprising a top face, a bottom face and four side faces between said top face and said bottom face, each of said side faces forming a traverse engaging groove extending laterally;
at least one second linkage brick comprising a top face, a bottom face and four side faces between said top face and said bottom face, each of two opposite side faces of said side faces forming a traverse engaging protrusion extending laterally, and each of the other two opposite side faces of said side faces forming a vertical engaging protrusion extending vertically;
and
at least one third linkage brick comprising a top face, a bottom face and four side faces between said top face and said bottom face, each of said side faces forming a vertical engaging groove extending vertically;
wherein each of said traverse engaging grooves of said first linkage brick is used to engage with each of said traverse engaging protrusions of said second linkage brick through lateral sliding, and each of said vertical engaging grooves of said third linkage brick is used to engage with each of said vertical engaging protrusions of said second linkage brick through downward sliding;
and
wherein a top face and an outer side face of each of said vertical engaging protrusions of said second linkage brick define a wedged corner, and each of said vertical engaging grooves of said third linkage brick correspondingly forms a wedged grooved portion, said wedged corner of each of said vertical engaging protrusions being used to engage with said wedged grooved portion of each of said vertical engaging grooves.

4 more elements

A unit assembled brick, comprising:

four first linkage bricks, each comprising a top face, a bottom face and four side faces between said top face and said bottom face, each of said side faces forming a traverse engaging groove extending laterally;
four second linkage bricks each comprising a top face, a bottom face and four side faces between said top face and said bottom face, each of two opposite side faces of said side faces forming a traverse engaging protrusion extending laterally, and each of the other two opposite side faces of said side faces forming a vertical engaging protrusion extending vertically;
and
a third linkage brick comprising a top face, a bottom face and four side faces between said top face and said bottom surface, each of said side faces forming a vertical engaging groove extending vertically;
wherein a top face and an outer side face of each of said vertical engaging protrusions of said second linkage bricks defines a wedged corner, and each of said vertical engaging grooves of said third linkage brick correspondingly forms a wedged grooved portion;
wherein said first linkage bricks engage with said second linkage bricks alternately, adjacent traverse engaging grooves of said first linkage bricks engage with adjacent traverse engaging protrusions of said second linkage bricks to form a hollow square ring that is arranged into a 3×3 array, and inner sides of said square ring have four vertical engaging protrusions of said second linkage bricks;
wherein said third linkage brick is placed in the center of said hollow square ring and each of four vertical engaging grooves of said third linkage brick respectively engages with each of four vertical engaging protrusions of said second linkage bricks facing said inner sides of said square ring;
and
wherein said wedged corner of each of said vertical engaging protrusions of said second linkage bricks engages with said wedged grooved portion of each of said vertical engaging grooves of said third linkage brick.
