  • Toy construction system
    Patent number: 9056260
    Abstract: A toy construction system includes a block component and a connector component. The connector component has a connector-to-block coupling section for releasable coupling to the block component and a connector-to-connector coupling section for releasable coupling to a substantially similar connecting component. The connector-to-block coupling section defines a connector block contacting surface for contacting the block component. The coupling aperture defines a peripheral edge retaining section made out of a substantially resiliently deformable material.

  • Shin guard
    Patent number: 4999847
    Abstract: A shin guard which provides desired characteristics of smallness of size and lightness in weight, while affording the necessary protection to the shins and knees of users when worn under their pants. The shin guard includes an elongated shin protector section which is strapped around the shin of the user and which tapers outwardly from the shin to encircle the front portion of the leg below the kneecap so as to provide protection for the user. A knee protector section is pivotably mounted to the uppermost portion of the shin protector section.
