Apparatus for Forming Instructional Figures

Abstract

An apparatus for forming instructional figures is disclosed. The apparatus includes a plurality of building blocks and a board. The plurality of building blocks has a predefined shape. The board has a plurality of spikes on a surface and holes surrounded by the plurality of spikes. The plurality of building blocks is mountable over the plurality of spikes to form the instructional figure.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An apparatus for creating an instructional figure, comprising:
 a plurality of building blocks having a predefined shape; and   a board having a plurality of spikes on a surface and holes surrounded by the plurality of spikes, wherein the plurality of building blocks is mountable over the plurality of spikes to form the instructional figure.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of building blocks is configured to create a bond with proximate building blocks upon application of an aqueous liquid. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein each of the plurality of building blocks has composition of at least 80% to 85% of Polyvinyl alcohol, 10% to 15% of Glycerine, 1% to 2% of Propylene glycol. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 3 , wherein each of the plurality of building blocks further has composition of 1%-2% of one or more catalysts for enhancing drying process after the application of the aqueous liquid. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein the aqueous liquid is water. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising a removing tool for removing the instructional figure formed on the board. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 6 , wherein the removing tool is a removing plate having a plurality of holes and spikes surrounding the holes such that each hole of the removing plate corresponds to the spikes of the board and each spike of the removing plate corresponds to the holes of the board when the removing plate is in operation. 
     
     
         8 . A method for forming an instructional figure, the method comprising:
 mounting a plurality of building blocks over spikes of a board in a predefined arrangement;   applying an aqueous liquid over the plurality of building blocks;   drying the aqueous liquid for creating bonds between proximate building blocks; and   removing the plurality of building blocks using a removing tool without breaking the bonds between the proximate building blocks to form the instructional figure.   
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the drying the aqueous liquid comprises:
 leaving the plurality of building blocks applied with the aqueous liquid for a predetermined amount of time to create bonds between the proximate building blocks.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the aqueous liquid is water. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein each of the plurality of building blocks has composition of at least 80% to 85% of Polyvinyl alcohol, 10% to 15% of Glycerine, 1% to 2% of Propylene glycol. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein each of the plurality of building blocks further has composition of 1%-2% of one or more catalysts for enhancing drying process after the application of the aqueous liquid. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the removing toolwherein the removing tool is a removing plate having a plurality of holes and spikes surrounding the holes such that each hole of the removing plate corresponds to the spikes of the board and each spike of the removing plate corresponds to the holes of the board when the removing plate is in operation.
