Definitions

  • the invention relates to a game cube made up of a plurality of cubes which follow one another and are each arranged rotatably relative to one another.
  • a well-known game cube of this type consists of 27 cubes of the same size, which are arranged in a certain angle to each other. These dice can only be put together to form the game dice, the edge length of which corresponds to three times the edge length of a single dice, by correct rotation adjustment.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a game cube from a chain of dice that offers a variety of solutions, so as to be able to put together a game cube from a single chain of dice by a different arrangement of the dice to each other.
  • the invention provides that two consecutive cubes of the cube chain are arranged so that they can be folded against one another. In this way, the angular assignment of two successive dice of the dice chain can be changed, so that the dice chain must be folded together to form the game dice in another arrangement of the dice. This increases the number of possible solutions to fold a game cube out of the same dice chain.
  • a particularly preferred embodiment of the game dice according to the invention results from the features of subclaim 2.
  • the individual cubes are folded towards one another by folding the elastic band out of the through hole into the transverse hole, so that the band then penetrates the cube at an angle.
  • the tape is folded over using the connecting slot. Its width is smaller than the diameter of the bores, so that the band, the thickness of which is adapted to the diameter of the bores, cannot move from one bore into the other by itself, but with little effort must be flipped through the connecting slot.
  • the game cube shown in FIG. 2 is folded up from a chain of dice shown in FIG. 1.
  • the cube chain consists of start and end links A and ⁇ or also called cube 1, as well as cubes 2 with straight and cubes 3 with angled guidance of an elastic band 5, which is fixed in the cubes 1.
  • Each cube 2, 3 is designed in accordance with the cube 6 shown in FIG. 4 and with a tape guide in FIGS. 5 and 6.
  • This has a straight through hole 7 and a thereto arranged at an angle of 90 0 transverse bore 8, between which at an edge 9 of the die 6, a connecting port is inserted.
  • the diameter of the bores 7, 8 corresponds to the diameter of the elastic band 5.
  • the width of the connecting slot is smaller than the diameter of the bores 7, 8, so that the band 5 can only be pulled through the connecting slot 10 under the action of force.
  • FIG. 5 ′ shows the arrangement of the band 5 only in the straight through bore 7 of the cube 6. This arrangement corresponds to the cube 2 in FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 6 shows the arrangement of the band 5 in an angled arrangement, partly within the straight through bore 7 and partly in the transverse bore 8. This arrangement corresponds to cube 3 in FIG. 1.
  • the folding or folding over of the band 5 from the arrangement according to FIG. 5 into the arrangement according to FIG. 6 is carried out by pulling the band 5 through the connecting slot 10 with a slight force acting on the band 5, which is thereby compressed.
  • the connecting slot 10 is so narrow that the band 5 cannot inadvertently change from one bore into the other when the cube chain according to FIG. 1 is folded.
  • the 25 cubes 2, 3 in FIGS. 1 and 2 are divided into 5 groups of 5 cubes by cross-shaped markings, so that the chain of cubes can be folded according to the graphically predetermined pattern without error.
  • flaps i.e. by different angular positions of the cubes 2, 3 relative to one another, i.e. A total of 11 487 different patterns are created, all of which can be folded into a game cube according to figure 2.
  • the individual cubes 1, 2, 3 and 6 consist in particular of plastic.
  • the elastic band 5 is in particular a rubber band with a round cross section.
  • the individual cubes 2, 3 formed according to cube 6 in FIG. 1 can be rotated relative to one another around the band 5 as a connecting axis and, due to the elasticity of the band 5 and the connecting slots 10, can also be folded against one another, so that the cubes 2, 3 also in the different angular positions with respect to one another can be brought, which allow the variety of different W ürfelkettenmuster.
  • the start and end links A and ⁇ , ie the cubes 1 only need a through hole for guiding and fixing the band 5.
