A modular unit forming toy constructions, includes a first body of prismatic shape, formed by a first blank of foldable material having a central portion with four sides, which defines an upper side of the first body including a pair of slits for each side, to delimit a central zone. The first blank has a wing protruding from each side of the central portion and includes three different consecutive parts defined by transversal pre-folds to form corresponding sides of the first body and a base flat lower edge of the first body delimiting a hollow central compartment of the first body. A similar smaller second body of prismatic shape is formed by a second blank having wing for each side with a protrusion for coupling to the slits. The second body has a shape/size to be housed in a central compartment of a first body forming another modular unit.

Foldable tubular construct/element with one rigid degree of freedom is of a tubular construction formed by a number of single layered annular units which are connected in sequence; each single layered annular unit is of a prism having N ridge lines; two adjacent prisms each having N sides are connected to each other by sharing a polygon with N sides formed on an intersection plane; each prism with N ridge lines is composed of N rigid planar quadrilateral facets; two adjacent single layered annular units comprise N spherical mechanisms formed by the intersections of only four planar quadrilateral facets at each apex, where N is a number greater than 3.

A folding toy is formed from a series of interconnected panels. Adjacent panels are flexibly joined at their respective side edges. Each of the panels may fold in two directions relative to its adjacent panel. A bottom edge of each of the panels may be supported on a ground surface. A plurality of notches is formed in a top edge of each of the panels. The panels of the folding toy may be folded and configured as desired to create a child play space, such as a fort. A cover placed over the top edges of the toy can serve as a roof. For ease of storage, the panels may be arranged into an accordion-folded configuration.

Various embodiments of the present technology provide structures for a cover for obscuring medical equipment and methods of making the same. The cover may extend over the medical equipment and comprise a plurality of peripheral flaps that extend over the sides of the medical equipment to conceal at least a portion of the medical equipment. In one embodiment, the cover may comprise a central member configured to extend over the top of the medical equipment. The cover may comprise one or more peripheral flaps extending out from the central member and configured to overlay and conceal a portion of the medical equipment and/or accessories attached to the medical equipment. In some embodiments, the cover may comprise spaces between the peripheral flaps provide access to the medical equipment.
