PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a connected-type block that enables a structure in linear and curved layouts to be easily constructed without use of cement and an adhesive, in a flower bed frame, a partition and the like.SOLUTION: A block, in which connecting holes 20 are made in the centers of bottom and top surfaces of a regular quadrangular prism 30 with a square bottom surface, serves as one unit. In an octagonal prism-shaped block 10, both ends of a long side of a rectangular parallelepiped, in which the plurality of these units are serially arranged in such a manner that the hole-made surfaces are directed in the same direction, assume a shape formed by halving a regular octagon. A construction material for a flower bed frame, a partition and the like in linear and curved layouts is provided by a connected-type block for being connected by an inserting connection rod for being engaged with the connecting hole.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】花壇枠や間仕切り等において、セメントや接着剤を使用せず、直線的かつ曲線的なレイアウトの構造物を簡単に構築できる、連結式ブロックの提供を課題とする。【解決手段】底面が正方形の正四角柱30の底面および上面の中央に連結用の穴20をあけたものを1単位とし、穴があいた面を同方向にしてこの1単位を複数個直列に並べた直方体の長辺両端を、正八角形の半分の形にした八角柱ブロック10で、連結用の穴に係合する差込み用の連結棒により連結する連結式ブロックにより、直線的かつ曲線的なレイアウトの花壇枠や間仕切り等の構築資材を提供する。【選択図】図1
