  • Patent number: 4798317
    Abstract: A mannequin providing a small scale model of a living or fanciful figure, the mannequin being created from a blank of non-woven, synthetic plastic, flexible sheet material having paper-like qualities. The blank is die-cut to define a predetermined pattern of interconnected sections. Each section is contoured to provide the form of a particular member of the figure and includes locking tabs projecting from one edge thereof and complementary slots adjacent the opposing edge to receive the tabs. Each section is convertible into a locked tubular element by rolling the section and inserting the tabs thereof into the slots. The sizes and shapes of the resultant tubular elements simulate the members of the figure. By means of different pattern designs, blanks may be provided each capable of creating a unique three-dimensional figure formed by interconnected tubular elements whose sizes and shapes are appropriate to the figure implicit in the picture.
