Benefits of technology

[0020] An object of the present invention is to provide a system comprising three new interlocking building blocks to greatly strengthen corners where more then two walls intersect.
[0021] Another object of the present invention is to provide a system comprising six different block types with built-in passageways for utility conduits and wiring and a new method of fabricating structures using the blocks that will interlock and cooperate with each other forming stronger wall structures with minimum labor.

Problems solved by technology

Laying blocks constitute a big portion of the direct labor cost.
The need for a sturdy structure limits the economic steps that may be taken to reduce cost.
The previous construction block systems could not route wires or conduits up and or around corners.
It is worthwhile noting the approach take by Ernest A. Rabassa U.S. Pat. No. 4,314,431 was close to a workable solution but his design lacked a method for routing wires and conduits around and up corners and the “column interlocking block and corner interlocking block” in this patent would have been difficult to cast or mold.

Embodiment Construction

[0039] The modular interlocking block system of the present invention provides a number of interlocking blocks structured to be interlocked to form various structural features having great strength and ease of fabrication qualities with built-in passageways for conduits, wiring, cement and reinforcing bars.

[0040] Referring now to FIG. 1, where the Standard Block interlocking block 20A is shown, it is seen that it has, a substantially rectangular shape block 24 with a longitudinal trapezoidal built-in protrusion 21 along the center of it's upper side. The Standard Block interlocking block 21 also has a longitudinal trapezoid slot 22, between two bottom longitudinal legs 25A and 25B, which is capable of receiving the top protrusion 21 from another standard block 20A to interlock the blocks when the blocks are staggered or aligned in abutting rows as shown in FIG. 2. A center longitudinal opening 23 provides a channel for conduits and wires 50, as shown in FIG. 2, when a number of sta...

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] Not Applicable STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT [0002] Not Applicable THE NAMES OF THE PARTIES TO A JOINT RESEARCH AGREEMENT [0003] Not Applicable INCORPORATION-BY-REFERENCE OF MATERIAL SUBMITTED ON A COMPACT DISC OR REFERENCE TO A “MICROFICHE APPENDIX”[0004] Not Applicable BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0005] 1. Field of the Invention [0006] The present invention relates to construction materials and in particular to a system of interlocking modular blocks for stronger structures with built-in passageways for utility conduits and wiring to be used in constructing entire structures. [0007] 2. Description of Related Art [0008] Several attempts have been made in the past to reduce ever increasing construction labor costs. Laying blocks constitute a big portion of the direct labor cost. The need for a sturdy structure limits the economic steps that may be taken to reduce cost. The previous construction block sy...
