The latter has to increase the stability of a plate 5 made of heavy weight material such as metal, which is mounted in a ring / f. This consists of elastic material such as rubber or the like and projects radially outward beyond the stone body. The locking piece 2 can be permanently or detachably connected to the stone body 1 by screws 5 or the like.

The stone body 1 is equipped with at least one device for attaching at least one message carrier. The message carrier can be a flat or a three-dimensional body be designed on which advertising texts and / or images, Displays, coats of arms or the like.

connected to one another, e.g. glued »to earth. The message carrier 7 can also be connected directly to the surface 6, e.g. Gluing to be connected. To protect the notification carrier, the surface 6 can be arranged or recessed in the stone body 1.

J be surrounded by a raised edge 8. The message carrier 7 can also be designed as a ring, which after removal of the

; Closure piece 2 is pushed onto the surface 6, the ; protruding ring 4 at the same time as a support and lower part • of the edge 8 is used.

; In further carrioning of the innovation can also still other places of the stone body 1 flat or three-dimensional Areas 6 'can be arranged, as indicated in FIG. The device for attaching the middle bracket 7 can also be designed in the form of bores 9 into which pins or bolts 10 of the message carrier 7 are inserted.

'. The pins or bolts 10 may be threaded; so DSUI inside nuts 11 may be screwed to secure the '., Note carrier 7.

In Figure 2, a chess piece is ^{indicated as a chess piece in the form:} a king, whose stone body 1 also with; the base 1 'having the surface 6 is equipped for attaching the center support 7. Of course, further devices for attaching message carriers 7 can also be provided here.

; In the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 3, the upper edge 8 has

; the surface 6 has a groove 8 * into which the Blattförid.ge Mi t-

\ dividing support 7 is pushed in from below. At the lower edge

\ the surface 6, the ring 4 forms a corresponding groove 8 "

with the base 1 *, so that the message carrier 7 by the

'' two opposing annular grooves 8 ¹ and 8 "

\ is held and after removing the locking piece 2

j can be changed.

In the exemplary embodiment of FIG. I, the device for holding the message carrier 7 is a frame 12 which is at least partially detachably fastened to the stone body 1 by screws 13 or the like, so that the message carrier? can be exchanged at will.

Of course, the stone body 1 can also be designed as a body that is closed on all sides, in the case of which it is raised
The focus is low on stability through suitable measures. Due to their size, chess stones for outdoor chess systems are particularly suitable for attaching
