  • Publication number: 20150024654
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an assembly (100) for selectively coupling the portions between the parts of a toy configured of a plurality of parts which are coupled to one another. The present invention comprises: a housing (110) defining an installation space (S) therein; and a coupling block (130) rotatably inserted in the installation space (S), and having a plurality of cantilever-shaped coupling pieces (140), at least a portion of which project outward from the installation space (S), wherein a coupling head (145) is disposed to project at one end of each of the coupling pieces (140) to thereby reduce the space between two adjacent coupling pieces (140). Thus, according to the present invention, through resilient deformation of the coupling pieces (140) of the assembly (100), parts are assembled together without the use of magnets in order to provide a relatively safe toy for infants. Also, due to the omission of magnetic parts, the manufacturing cost of the assembly (100) can be reduced.
