![]() ![]() ![]() The modular toy according to the present invention essentially comprises a composite base module, itself movable, to which there may be adapted all sorts of accessories to achieve various combinations for creating a miniature playland limited only by the child's imagination. 4,217,724, which consists of a base element comprising a body made of one cylindrical piece and two semi-spherical units which may be quickly assembled, and on which is it possible to mount accessories such as, for example, wheels. This is the case in the toy described in U.S. The base elements usually consist of a static component to which other fixed or movable components may be attached. Modular toys are already known, comprising one or more base elements and a series of accessories attachable thereto. The present invention involves a modular toy comprising at least one composite base module having at least one circular side plate supporting a fixed axle and at least two like elements, capable of turning in symmetry and mounted on said one axle on each side of said side plate. ![]() The toy according to claim 5, wherein said propulsion means has its own source of energy and a drive means. The toy according to claim 4, wherein said accessories comprise propulsion means (50) in a case (51).Ħ. The toy according to claim 1, comprising accessories (41-45) adapted for attachment to said base module and each provided with at least one clip (61, 71) adapted for engagement in one of said openings (21, 38, 62) to thereby ensure connection of the corresponding accessory.ĥ. The toy according to claim 2, wherein said rotatable end elements (34, 35) are semi-spherical and said intermeidate element is cylindrical.Ĥ. The toy according to claim 1, wherein at least two circular plates (31, 32) are supported on a common fixed axle (33) with at least one intermediate element (36) arranged between said two circular plates, and said rotatable end elements (34, 35) are respectively mounted on the end portions of said axle (33).ģ. (c) retaining tips (15, 16) being fixed at the extremities of sid fixed axle (12), encompassed by said central recess areas and arranged so that said tips maintain said rotatable end elements (13, 14) in position for free rotation on said fixed axle (12), wherein said retaining tips further provide openings (21) for connecting accessories to said base module and said rotatable end elements consist of semi-spherical elements (13, 14) mounted on either side of said central circular plate (11).Ģ. (b) a plurality of openings (21) regularly disposed on the periphery of said central circular plate (11) and arranged for selective attachment of accessories to said central circular plate, so that said composite base module can provide different toys by selectively attaching different accessories to sid openings (21) of said central circular plate (11), wherein said base module may be displaced by rolling on said rotatable end elements (13, 14) and (a) a central circular plate (11), disposed normal to its central axis, supported on a fixed axle (12) which is coaxial with said central axis, integral with said central circular plate and extending axially on either side of said plate, said central circular plate (11) being provided with a pair of rotatable end elements (13, 14) respectively mounted on either side of said central circular plate for free rotation on said fixed axle, each rotatable end element having a central recess area wherein said fixed axle projects thereinto, the diameter of said central circular plate being smaller than the diameter of said rotatable elements A modular toy having at least one composite base module comprising
