ABSTRACT:
A motor for a toy construction set of the type having a plurality of connector elements and rod-like struts engageable with the connector elements to form a coherent structure wherein the connector elements have a center hub portion and a plurality of pairs of spaced-apart gripping arms adapted for lateral, snap-in engagement of the struts. The motor has a housing body and a plurality of sets of projections extending from the housing body, each of which is adapted for tight frictional engagement with a plurality of activities of the connectors. The sets of projections are located such that a connector mounted thereon can be interconnected, by said connectors and struts, to a connector mounted on another set of projections so the motor can be rigidly incorporated in an assembly comprised of a combination of the connectors and struts of the toy construction set.
