THE DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0011] The claimed method is implemented as follows: first, selecting of at least six identical elements, then, determining of at least one connection point on the first element; then, determining of at least the connection point on the second element; then, connecting of the elements at certain points of the junction in such a way that the planes passing through the first element and the second element are perpendicular; afterwards, selecting of the next element; determining of its points of intersection with previous elements; then, connecting of the element with the previous elements at the intersection points in such a way that the planes passing through the elements are mutually perpendicular to the following elements. To attach the remaining elements, the operations associated with determining the intersection points on the previous elements of the operation and attaching them to the already assembled structure are repeated until all the elements are installed in the three-dimensional object, wherein the condition is met that the first element is parallel to the fourth one, the second element is parallel to the fifth one, and the third element is parallel to the sixth one and each element is secured at two points. Experiments have shown that when doing method operations in this way, a three-dimensional object is obtained that has high strength properties due to the intersection of planes passing through the elements of the object at right angles. Besides, the very method of assembling such an object is quite simple, since it comprises a set of several repeated simple operations.

[0012] When implementing the method, elements of various shapes can be used depending on the field of application of the obtained three-dimensional object, for example, the element shape intended for assembling propellers for watercrafts can be a flat circular plate. In other cases, the elements may be ring-shaped, made in the form of a flat circle or a square. Wherein the material and method of connecting elements is also selected depending on the field of application of the three-dimensional object assembled by the claimed method. Therefore, elements can be made, for example, from metal and are joined by welding, or the elements can be made of polymer and be connected, for example, glued. Besides, elements can be made of composite material. Wherein each element of a three-dimensional object can be made of a material that is different from other elements.

[0013] Let's consider one of the possible embodiments of the claimed method. Six elements are selected that represent a two-dimensional figure—a circle; each of them is divided into three parts, the areas of which are equal, wherein two parts are segments of the given circle. The division points of these parts are marked, see FIG. 1, and all 6 elements are connected in series (see FIG. 2) through the marked points so that the planes passing through the elements are perpendicular to each other, wherein the condition is met that the first element is parallel to the fourth one, the second element is parallel to the fifth one, and the third element is parallel to the sixth element (see FIG. 3), and each of the elements is connected at two points with other elements. According to a possible embodiment of the method, the elements are connected to make two individual groups of 3 elements each, which are further connected with each other at the marked points. In case more than six elements need to be connected, the sequence of actions of the method does not change, but additional elements are added in pairs and wherein the angle of connection between the planes at their connection point changes.

[0014] If two-dimensional figures are used as elements, it can be a circle, a square, and if three-dimensional figures are used as elements, then it can be a torus, cubic forms, triangular forms. Wherein it should be understood that the choice of the shape of a figure is determined by the scope of the obtained three-dimensional object rather than by the requirements of the operations of its production method.

[0015] To manufacture the elements, materials can be used, whose strength properties correspond to the field of application of the obtained three-dimensional object, such as metals, metal alloys, plastics, elastic materials.

[0016] The invention has been disclosed above with reference to a specific embodiment. To those skilled in the art, there are other embodiments of the invention may be obvious, which do not change its essence, as disclosed in this detailed description. Accordingly, the invention should be considered limited in scope only by the following claims.
