Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9725121A1] The invention relates to a modular construction system, for instance for educational purposes or for use as toy, which system comprises at least two components for mutual releasable coupling by means of coupling means, which coupling means comprise: two coupling edges forming part of a wall of the one component and also forming the boundary of one or two continuous holes in this wall; and two coupling lips which are each adapted to be inserted in a or the continuous hole and which each comprise for this purpose at least one snap edge for co-action with an associated coupling edge such that after this co-action has been brought about the rearward displacement can only take place by exerting a certain minimum force in the direction of rearward displacement.
