Abstract: A connection device for toy construction sets comprises a cylindrical socket and a bolt-like locking element inserted therein. The socket is inserted into the bores of the construction elements to be connected and is provided at one end with a radially protruding outer edge shoulder as a retaining member as well as longitudinal slots. The locking element (9) is rotatable within the socket, but fixed axially and rotation of the locking element causes the socket to lock within the construction element.
Abstract: A rod is provided with a plurality of bores disposed in a row. In the area of the two end bores the rod has only half the thickness and parallel plane faces. Coaxial to the end bores an annular groove is formed on one face. A toothed rim with radial teeth extends axially on the base of the annular groove. Two such rods may be connected by the teeth of the on tooth rim interdigitating between teeth of the other tooth rim with the rods at a desired angle with each other.
