Abstract

Brain-twister (1) consists of movable elements which are arranged into the groups (2) of at least four mutually separated and mutually movable flat elements (3, 4) in the scope of 360 DEG, wherein one element of each group (2) creates a central flat element (3) and at least three orbital flat elements (4) are arranged symmetrically around this central flat element (3), wherein at least one of these orbital flat elements (4) is a part of the same number of orbital flat elements (4) of a neighbour group (2) of flat elements (3, 4) again with a central flat element (3), wherein all the groups (2) of flat elements (3, 4) create an infinite and closed chain in all directions and the chains are arranged into a shape of a ball.

Description

Brain twister
Invention field
The present invention relates to a kind of brain twister, it comprises the flat element that can move mutually, and they are arranged to a shell on a spherical internal structure.
Background of invention
The purpose that some particular toy are arranged is the ability for imagination of tempering people and combination.Brain twister is wherein made one group of movably element by structure, and changes their mutual alignment according to various possibilities.These elements scribble shades of colour usually, perhaps a picture are divided into each surface or fragment is plotted on these elements, and player's task is to create a geometry or risk a picture by moving these elements.These elements both can move separately, also can embark on journey or moving in groups.
The flat toy that typical example is made up of a framework wherein is equipped with square flat element in the brain twister field, but leave a square vacant lot in framework, thereby in these elements one or a full line element are moved.Yet it only is a simple toy that is suitable for less children, and it can't attract bigger children or even adult.
More complicated brain twister is called as " magic square (Rubic ' s cube) ", and it is very popular in the young man below 18 years old.It is the brain twister of a new generation.27 colored small cubes are disposed on 3 walls that are made of 3 * 3 cubes.In these three walls each is represented one group of 9 cube, and this group can be at two vertical plane intorts.Scribble different colors on each surface of small cubes, task has just been finished when having identical color bar on the surface of whole magic square.But the shortcoming of magic square is that to have sharp-pointed profile and structure relatively complicated.
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of brain twister that has suitable spacing and do not have the shape of sharp edges, its complexity is enough to attract bigger children and adult, and might risk by magic square picture or the image that can't realize.Technical characterictic of the present invention
Eliminated above-mentioned deficiency to a great extent according to brain twister of the present invention, technical characterictic of the present invention is, a plurality of movably elements are arranged in groups, this group comprises at least four separated and flat elements that can move mutually again in 360 ° scope, wherein an element in each group forms a center flat element, at least three flat elements that are circular layout be centered around symmetrically the center flat element around, at least one is a part that has the flat element that is circular layout of equal number in the adjacent set in the flat element that is circular layout, adjacent set is formed by flat element equally and has a center flat element, all the group in flat element constituted on all directions infinite and the sealing chain, this chain is disposed on the sphere.
In a preferred embodiment, five flat elements that are circular layout are arranged in one group, wherein, the center flat element be shaped as regular pentagon, the flat element that is circular layout be shaped as regular hexagon.
In another embodiment, the center flat element is installed on the spherical internal structure fastenedly, and the flat element that is circular layout is arranged to and can moves and can move mutually around the center flat element.
In another embodiment, center flat element reality or imaginary diameter are less than the flat element reality or the imaginary diameter that are circular layout.
The accompanying drawing summary
The present invention is described with reference to the accompanying drawings, and wherein: Fig. 1 shows the plane outspread drawing of the spherical housing that is made of circular flat element among the embodiment of brain twister of the present invention; And Fig. 2 shows another embodiment of brain twister of the present invention, and flat element is wherein arranged by typical football mode with corresponding pentagon and hexagon.
The preferred embodiments of the present invention
Brain twister 1 is spherical in shape in a preferred embodiment, but in order to show that better principle, Fig. 1 show the plane outspread drawing of the spherical housing that is made of circular flat element 3,4.This shell is covered with a unshowned internal structure spherical in shape, and this shell is to use the group 2 that is formed by flat element 3,4 to constitute.These groups 2 always comprise six spaces and mutual flat element 3,4 movably in 360 ° scope, one of wherein organize in the element 3,4 in 2 and to be used as 3, five flat elements that are circular layout 4 of a center flat element and to be centered around symmetrically around this center flat element 3.Show number and which element the 3, the 4th of element 3,4 in the group 2 among Fig. 1 with the dotted line ring of sealing, belong to a group 2 that forms by element 3,4.In this embodiment, the diameter of center flat element 3 is littler by about 20% than the diameter of the flat element 4 that is circular layout.The surface of all flat elements 3,4 is partly overlapping each other, thereby organizes the flat element that is circular layout 4 in 2 round center flat element 3 and therewith formed the ring of a compactness.But in an alternative embodiment, all elements can have identical size, and in some motions, the element that each flat element 3,4 all can be used as the center flat element or is circular layout.By organizing the circus movement of the flat element 4 that is circular layout in 2, the flat element 4 that is circular layout is exchanged on the position of other flat elements 4 in the adjacent group 2.From the principle, the flat element 3,4 of group in 2 can comprise at least three flat elements that are circular layout 4, they be arranged in symmetrically a center flat element 3 around, wherein all four flat elements 3,4 can be mobile in 360 ° scope mutually.Simultaneously, at least one flat element that is circular layout 4 is parts of the flat element that is circular layout 4 in the adjacent group 2.But for this embodiment, obviously, between the flat element 4 that is circular layout, can there be relatively large gap, and considers, be necessary these gaps are filled up from angle attractive in appearance.Equally, for the embodiment of modification, all size of component are identical also can to produce clearance issues.
Fig. 2 shows an embodiment with advantage of brain twister 1.In this embodiment, show the plane outspread drawing of the spherical housing that constitutes by pentagon and hexagon flat element 3,4 equally.Center flat element 3 is regular pentagon, and the flat element 4 that is circular layout is regular hexagon.Center pentagon flat element 3 imaginary diameter in this embodiment is also little by about 20% than the imaginary diameter of the hexagon flat element 4 that is circular layout.
In two embodiment, always having two in five flat elements that are circular layout 4 of formation group 2 is the part of flat element 3,4 in the adjacent set 2, and this adjacent group 2 also comprises five flat elements that are circular layout 4 and a center flat element 3.All groups 2 that formed by flat element 3,4 have constituted the chain of infinite and sealing on all directions, and this chain is arranged to the spherical housing by spherical internal structure carrying.
In two embodiment, center flat element 3 can be installed on the spherical internal structure fastenedly, and the flat element 4 that is circular layout is arranged to and can moves around them.But, in other embodiments also can not fastening any center flat element 3.
