  • Universal interconnecting building block
    Patent number: 10549210
    Abstract: The inventor of the present invention aimed to solve the problem of limited modes of interconnection between blocks. To solve this problem, the inventor created a building block that is reconfigurable to connect to a neighboring block by any two adjacent faces. To achieve this, the inventor created a system that allows a user to construct and reconfigure each individual face to provide either male or female connecting features, as well as configurable slidable connection between male and female parts. Said slidable connection allows two mating faces to be shifted or offset from one another in continuously varying amounts of offset.
