Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0010670A1] A plurality of vertically stackable playset modules (11, 12, 13, 14) include respective male and female connectors (62, 50) for interlocking the modules in a selected vertical arrangement. Each module further includes one or more tiers (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26) and connecting ramps (40, 41, 42, 43, 44) between tiers to provide a complete structure when the array is formed. The modules are interchangeable and interlocking to allow the vertical arrangement of modules to be changed and the playset reassembled in a snap-fit attachment between modules for secure playset structure. In the preferred fabrication of the present invention, one or more modules are configured to be base modules intended to rest upon a support surface such as a floor or table. However, in an alternate assembly, each module may be capable of placement anywhere in the array.
