Description

GERMAN

There are magnetic motion games with several figures known that on a playing surface by under this on a z. B. common plane displaceably arranged magnets are moved.

In these games, the magnets are controlled via guide elements that are in the same Level and are accordingly moved in this.

Such a training has the significant disadvantage that the freedom of movement of the various Guide elements, but also their control magnets and, accordingly, that of these in their movement influenced game pieces is within relatively narrow limits, because the guide elements only allow them to move freely from one another in correspondingly small areas under the playing surface. This movement restriction prevents the reproduction of some natural movement processes that could be represented by the pawns.

According to the invention, this disadvantage becomes complete and therefore relatively simple fixed by the fact that the guide elements of the magnets are guided in two different planes of movement are.

The new construction offers a practically completely independent mutual displaceability of the game pieces. They are only subject to if their control magnets should collide a restriction in their freedom of movement. The resulting disability will however affect the players recognizable by the mechanical resistance that arises when two magnets meet, but under such conditions by reversing one or both figures without can fix further.

A particularly secure freedom from obstruction of the various guide elements for the control magnets can be achieved by having one magnet standing on top and another hanging under the end its guide element is arranged.

Another option in this point is that there is a floor under the playing surface is arranged, which serves as a support for the guide element of a magnet, while the guide element another magnet is under this floor.

A preferred embodiment of the new construction is given that as a guide element Nuremberg scissors, known per se, are used around a pivot point of two levers fixed to the frame is pivotably mounted, which serves as a translation together with a pair of legs of the scissors Form joint parallelogram, with a two-armed, all-magnetic movement game at the joint point of this pair of legs

side swing mounted control lever engages, which thereby its movement true to the direction on the Scissors transfers.

It is useful here if the legs at the free end of the Nuremberg scissors are shorter are than the rest.

Finally, it is advantageous that the Nuremberg scissors lying close to the playing area have spacer bolts od. The like. Between their first and second pair of legs.

In the drawing, the invention is shown by way of example.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, there is a floor under a playing surface 1 on which the figures 2 move 3 provided. On this is a pair of Nuremberg scissors 4, at one end of which a control lever 5 engages, while a magnet 6 stands upright on its free end.

Immediately under the playing surface 1, a second Nuremberg pair of scissors 7 is mounted, which is supported by a second Control lever 8 can be actuated, and which lies in a different plane to the playing surface 1 than the scissors 4. Its free end carries a second magnet 9 hanging under the playing surface 1.

The scissors 4 and 7 are at their ends articulated with the control levers 5 and 8, respectively Rocking levers 10, 11 (FIG. 3) are each mounted on a pin 12 fixed to the frame on the floor 3. The rocker arm 10, 11 together with the pair of legs of each pair of scissors combined with the control lever form a joint parallelogram, which serves as a translation of the movements of the control levers on the scissors.

At the ends carrying the magnets 6 and 9, the legs of the scissors are shorter than the rest of them to achieve that even with contracted scissors the magnets on the side walls Can completely paint over the playing area.

The control levers 5 and 8 are two-armed and in ball joints 17 of the playing surface 1 on all sides pivoted.

With this arrangement and design of the Nuremberg scissors 4, 7 serving as a drive, the magnets 6, 9 carried by them can brush the entire toy 1. As Figures 4 and 5 also show schematically, the one transmission device for the control movement of the control lever, e.g. B. a Nuremberg pair of scissors 4, with the stationary magnet 6 on an intermediate floor 3 'arranged at some distance above the floor 3. In contrast, the second transmission device, e.g. B. in turn a Nuremberg pair of scissors 7, which is hinged to the second control lever 8, lie under this intermediate floor on the floor 3 and attack with their free end on a tension member 19, which via deflection elements 20 with a cross slide 21 mounted on the intermediate floor 3 ' , 22 is connected. The latter runs over the standing magnet 6 and carries the downwardly pointing second magnet 9 under the playing surface 1. In this construction, too, the two drives 4, 7 do not hinder each other in their movement, since the one on the intermediate floor 3 ', the others, however, are on the floor 3. The controls, e.g. B. control levers 5, 8, as Fig. 6 shows, be arranged on opposite sides of the playing surface 1, so that preferably two players or parties can easily play together. However, they can also be arranged on the same side of the playing surface as shown in FIG. 7, and this also gives a single player the opportunity to control different figures from the same point of view. Again, this embodiment will primarily be used for teaching purposes. In the examples shown, the control levers are designed with two arms in order to be able to transfer the control movements to the magnets with true movement. PATENT REQUIREMENTS: 1. Magnetic movement game with several figures, which are on a playing surface by underneath it one z. B. common plane displaceably arranged magnets are moved, characterized in that the guide elements (4, 7) of the magnets (6, 9) are guided in two different planes of movement. 2. Magnetic movement game according to claim 1, characterized in that a magnet (6) standing up and another (9) hanging under the end of its guide element (4 or 7) is arranged. 3.
