Definitions
- the application refers to a body for dicing for Dice games.
- Dice body for dice games In a cube body for dice games is basically the Requirement to fulfill that all side surfaces of the cube body fall almost equally frequently.
- Dice body for dice games therefore, traditionally consist of a six-sided Cube with six square equal sides.
- the four sides, eight, twelve or twenty equal sides exhibit.
- Game dice with page numbers not equal to four, six, Twelve or twenty can only be formed as non-regular polyhedra be, i. not all sides and angles of the Dice bodies are the same.
- non-regular polyhedra formed cube bodies therefore, poses the problem that due to the asymmetry certain sides more often when rolling or less often than other pages. This circumstance seemed so far the desire for a body to roll with seven pages to stand in.
- the object of the invention is to a seven-sided body for dicing create its seven sides when rolling with equal frequency fall.
- the cube body according to the invention is a seven-surface polyhedron with two mutually parallel end faces and five mutually equal side surfaces between the faces, which form an equiangular pentagon and perpendicular stand to the side surfaces.
- the distance between the two end faces from each other to the inner periphery of the end faces is dimensioned such that when dicing every face almost as often lying down as lying down every side surface. Basically, it is such that the five side surfaces each equally fall, as well as the two end surfaces in each case fall on equal footing, i.e. while lying down, you can lie down while rolling.
- the height of the cube i.
- the front surface distance is compared to the inner circumference of the end faces in such a way set each face to fall just as frequently as each Side surface. That means every face on a statistical average every For the seventh time, every page area is statistically averaged every seventh time falls. This creates a seven-sided body for rolling, despite the its non-regular polyhedral form the most important requirement for a cube body for dice games, namely the requirement that each side be common falls.
- the ratio of the face distance to the face inside circumference must between 1.0 and 2.0. Only then is it guaranteed that all seven surfaces of the cube body fall in common. In particular, at a ratio of Face distance to the inner circumference of 1,2 ensures that all seven Side surfaces fall about equally frequently.
- a cavity with a Rolling provided, which is smaller than the cavity and formed in this is freely movable.
- the corners of the cube body between an end face and two side surfaces rounded, so that the cube is more uniform and can roll less jumping.
- a cube body 10 is shown, the made of wood, but also of other materials, for example Plastic or metal can be made.
- the cube body 10 is a seven-sided polyhedron and has two end faces 12,13, which are parallel to each other. Furthermore, the cube body 10 has five equal side surfaces 11: 14-17, which form an equilateral pentagon with each other. The side surfaces 11, 14 to 17 are perpendicular to the End faces 12,13.
- the distance Y of the two end faces 12,13 each other is about 1.2 times as large as the inner circumference X the end faces 12,13. At this ratio of end face inner circumference Y and face distance X to each other, so gave Attempts, all side surfaces 11-17 of the cube body 10 fall when rolling, almost equally, i. every page 11-17 of the Dice body 10 comes almost equally to the bottom Lying after being diced. This is the main requirement to a game cube body, namely the requirement that each Side, i. each number, about the same number of cubes falls, fulfills.
- the two end faces 12,13 with the cube numbers 2 and 3 provided while the side surfaces 11, 14-17 are consecutively numbered with the numbers 1,4,5,6 and 7 are. If one of the end faces 12, 13 falls during rolling, always counts the above number of dice. Falls the cube body 10 on a side surface 11,14-17, so are always two side surfaces 11,14-17 overhead. In this case, each counts larger of the two overhead dice numbers, unless the Dice numbers 1 and 7 are at the same time overhead. In this In case "1" hits 7 and counts the number of dice 1.
- the cube body 10 has a Cavity 20, in which a freely movable rolling element 22nd is included.
- the rolling element 22 is made of metal and ensures a greater total weight of the cube, so that a more even cube and a more even cube course result.
- the corners and edges of the cube especially the corners between an end face 12, 13 and two side faces 11, 14-17 are rounded to a more even roll allow the cube body 10.
