Abstract
Abstract The instant article is a cubical block, hollow or solid, formed from two geometrically identical molded sections, each diagonally cut so that the two sections are complementarily fitted axially to form a cube. Depending upon the particular materials used, the instant cube may be ornamental or structural, or useful as a furnishing.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
54 words
An article useful as a structural or ornamental module, or both, formed by axially fitting two geometrically identical sections, complementarily, to form a cube having four vertical faces, each vertical face being diagonally divided, each of said identical sections being formed from a moldable or castable material having a different appearance from the other.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
54 words
An article useful as a structural or ornamental module, or both, formed by axially fitting two geometrically identical sections, complementarily, to form a cube having four vertical faces, each vertical face being diagonally divided, each of said identical sections being formed from a moldable or castable material having a different appearance from the other.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
70 words
A table or display stand formed by axially locking two geometrically identical relatively thin-walled sections, complementarily, to form a hollow cube having four vertical faces, each vertical face being diagonally divided, one of said identical sections being formed from an opaque moldable or castable synthetic resin, the other being formed from a transparent moldable or castable synthetic resin, each section being equipped with means for interiorly locking said sections together.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
70 words
A table or display stand formed by axially locking two geometrically identical relatively thin-walled sections, complementarily, to form a hollow cube having four vertical faces, each vertical face being diagonally divided, one of said identical sections being formed from an opaque moldable or castable synthetic resin, the other being formed from a transparent moldable or castable synthetic resin, each section being equipped with means for interiorly locking said sections together.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
67 words
A combination table and hassock formed by axially fitting two geometrically identical sections, complementarily, to form a cube having four vertical faces, each vertical face being diagonally divided one of said identical sections being formed from a relatively rigid moldable or castable synthetic resin, the other section being formed from a relatively spongy, molded or cast resin, each said section having a different appearance from the other.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
67 words
A combination table and hassock formed by axially fitting two geometrically identical sections, complementarily, to form a cube having four vertical faces, each vertical face being diagonally divided one of said identical sections being formed from a relatively rigid moldable or castable synthetic resin, the other section being formed from a relatively spongy, molded or cast resin, each said section having a different appearance from the other.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
79 words
A sculpture module useful as a structural or ornamental module to form geometrical composites, said module formed by axially locking two geometrically identical molded sections, complementarily, to form a hollow cube having four vertical faces, each vertical face being diagonally divided each of said identical sections being formed from a moldable synthetic resin having a different color, each of said identical sections having internal locking means which are concealed when Said sections are axially locked to form said module.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
79 words
A sculpture module useful as a structural or ornamental module to form geometrical composites, said module formed by axially locking two geometrically identical molded sections, complementarily, to form a hollow cube having four vertical faces, each vertical face being diagonally divided each of said identical sections being formed from a moldable synthetic resin having a different color, each of said identical sections having internal locking means which are concealed when Said sections are axially locked to form said module.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
15 words
The article of claim 1 wherein said castable material is an organic synthetic polymerizable resin.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
24 words
The article of claim 1 wherein said article formed axially fitting said sections complementarily are sonically welded in fixed abutting relationship to each other.
