Description

CARTES A JOUER NE COMPORTENT AUCUN AXE DE SYMETRIE PLAYING CARDS HAVE NO SYMMETRY
La présente invention a pour obη et un jeu de carres à jouer.The present invention has for obη and a game of edges to play.
Les carres à jouer actuelles d'un jeu détermine se présentent généralement sous la forme d un petit carton rectangulaire qui comporte sur 1 une de ses faces une figure particulière pour le jeu, tandis que l'autre face comporte un graphisme ou une couleur que l'on retrouve sur toutes les autres cartes de manière qu'il soit impossible de les distinguer en observant lesdites faces. Au cours du jeu les cartes sont tenues dans une main de cartes à jouer en étant superposées les unes aux autres et légèrement décalées de manière à faire apparaître une figure significative de la carte . Le document FR 814 212 a pour oojet une carte a jouer dont le contour est oviforme avec un axe de symétrie unique, longitudinal.The edges to play a game determines current are generally in the form of a small rectangular card having of 1 one of its faces a figure particular for the game, while the other face comprises a graphic or a color that 'found on all the other maps so that it is impossible to distinguish them by observing the said faces. During the game the cards are held in a hand of playing cards by being superimposed on each other and slightly offset so as to reveal a significant figure of the card. The document FR 814 212 has for its object a playing card whose outline is oviform with a single axis of symmetry, longitudinal.
La présente invention a pour but de proposer un eu de cartes à jouer plus approprié à la tenue en main et permettant aux utilisateurs de les redresser plus facilement et plus rapidement qu'avec les cartes décrites précédemment.The present invention aims to propose been playing cards more ap p priate to grip and allowing users to recover more easily and more quickly than with the cards described above.
Le jeu de cartes a jouer selon la présente invention est du type comprenant des cartes en carton ou en matière plastique et se caractérise essentiellement en ce que d une part cnaque carte est constituée d une tête de forme globalement circulaire ou polygonale se prolongeant par une partie en forme de virgule en sorte que ladite carte ne comporte aucun axe de symétrie.The playing card game according to the present invention is of the type comprising cardboard or plastic cards and is essentially characterized in that on the one hand each card is made up of a head of generally circular or polygonal shape extending by a part in the form of a comma so that said card does not have any axis of symmetry.
Conformément a 1 invention la partie en forme de virgule prolongeant la tête peut comporter des bords courues ou droits.In accordance with the invention, the comma-shaped part extending the head may have curved or straight edges.
Dans un mode de réalisation préférentiel du jeu de cartes selon la présente invention la tête présente une forme globalement circulaire et les oords latéraux de la partie en forme de virqule sont courues et incurves de manière que 1 un desdits bords latéraux soit incurve vers 1 intérieur et î autre ûord latéral soit incurve vers 1 extérieur tandis que xe oorα αe 1 extrémité îiore du prolongement en rorme αe virgu e sera de préférence arrondi . En outre, pour permettre aux utilisateurs de pratiquer, a partir d'un même jeu de cartes, plusieurs jeux éducatifs et/ou ludiques de règles différentes la face opposée a celle comportant un graphisme ou une couleur peut comporter avantageusement pour une règle de jeu déterminée, une ou plusieurs zones de jeu réservées a une ou plusieurs figures particulières d une règle de jeu déterminée.In a preferred embodiment of the deck of cards according to the present invention, the head has a generally circular shape and the lateral edges of the part in the shape of a virqule are run and curved so that 1 of said lateral edges is curved towards 1 interior and î another lateral edge is curved towards 1 outside while xe oorα has 1 ior end of the prolongation in uniform form will preferably be rounded. In addition, to allow users to practice, from the same deck of cards, several educational and / or playful games of different rules, the face opposite to that comprising a graphic or a color may advantageously include for a determined game rule , one or more game zones reserved for one or more particular figures of a given game rule.
Les zones de eu peuvent être délimitées par des lignes courues qui seront avantageusement de couleurs différentes pour mieux distinguer lesdites zones et donc les figures appartenant a une règle de jeu déterminée. ι_a tête et le prolongement en forme de virgule d une carte a jouer selon 1 invention pourront cnacune comporter des zones de jeu situées latéralement de manière a être vismles dans une main de cartes a jouer dans une orientation particulière de la carte, verticale ou noπzontale et selon une orientation particulière de ladite tête ou encore selon la façon de superposer les cartes dans ladite main.The areas of eu can be delimited by dashed lines which will advantageously be of different colors to better distinguish said areas and therefore the figures belonging to a determined rule of play. ι_a head and the comma-shaped extension of a playing card according to 1 invention may cnacune include play areas located laterally so as to be vismles in a hand of playing cards in a particular orientation of the card, vertical or noπzontale and according to a particular orientation of said head or also according to the way of superimposing the cards in said hand.
Ainsi, 1 utilisateur orientera les cartes dans sa main d une certaine manière et/ou les superposera de gauche a droite ou αe αroite a gauche selon la règle du eu qu il aura cnoisie. Les avantages et les caractéristiques de la présente invention ressortiront plus clairement de la description qui suit et qui se rapporte au dessin annexe, lequel en représente un mode de réalisation non limitatif.Thus, 1 user will orient the cards in his hand in a certain way and / or superimpose them from left to right or to right to left according to the rule of eu that he will have chosen. The advantages and characteristics of the present invention will emerge more clearly from the description which follows and which relates to the attached drawing, which represents a non-limiting embodiment thereof.
- la figure 1 représente une vue en plan d une carte a jouer selon 1 invention dans mode de réalisation comportant des zones de jeu démimitées par des lignes couroes .- Figure 1 shows a plan view of a playing card according to 1 invention in embodiment comprising playing areas demarcated by curved lines.
- la figure 2a représente une vue en plan d une main de trois cartes orientées verticalement tête en oas . - la figure 2D représente une vue en p an d une main αe trois cartes orientée verticalement tête en naut et αecalees vers la αroite. - la rigure zc représente une vue en plan d une main de trois cartes orientées comme sur la figure 2D mais décalées vers la gauche.- Figure 2a shows a plan view of a hand of three cards oriented vertically head in oas. - Figure 2D represents a plan view of a hand with three cards oriented vertically head in naut and staggered to the right. - rigure zc represents a plan view of a hand of three cards oriented as in figure 2D but shifted to the left.
- la figure 3a montre les différentes étapes du processus de redressement des cartes selon 1 invention en vue de les orienter αans le même sens.- Figure 3a shows the different stages of the card recovery process according to 1 invention in order to orient them in the same direction.
- la figure 3b montre les différentes étapes du processus de redressement des cartes a jouer selon la présente invention permettant de retourner les cartes de manière qu elles aient toutes la face de jeu du même côte.- Figure 3b shows the different stages of the process of straightening playing cards according to the present invention to turn the cards so that they all have the playing side of the same side.
- la figure 4 représente une main de carte a jouer actuelle et une main de carte a jouer selon la présente invention.- Figure 4 shows a current playing card hand and a playing card hand according to the present invention.
Si on se réfère a la figure 1 on peut voir qu une carte a jouer 1 d un jeu de cartes selon la présente invention est constituée dans un mode de réalisation préférentiel d'une feuille de carton ou de matière plastique PVC coupée de manière a former une tête 10 giooa ement circulaire prolongée sensiblement au niveau de sa semi- circonférence par une partie 11 en forme de virgule et dont 1 extrémité libre est arrondie.If we refer to Figure 1 we can see that a playing card 1 of a deck of cards according to the present invention consists in a preferred embodiment of a sheet of cardboard or PVC plastic cut to form a head 10 giooa ement circular extended substantially at its semi-circumference by a portion 11 in the form of a comma and whose 1 free end is rounded.
Les nords latéraux 12,13 de la partie i en forme de virgule sont courbes et incurves en sorte que 1 un des oords 12 est rendu concave et 1 autre cote nord Ij est rendu convexe, ceci de manière a rendre la carte asymétrique .The lateral nords 12, 13 of the part i in the form of a comma are curved and curved so that 1 of the edges 12 is made concave and 1 other north dimension Ij is made convex, this so as to make the map asymmetrical.
Les cartes a jouer selon la présente invention permettent ainsi, du fait de leur asymétrie et αe leur forme, a l'utilisateur de les redresser rapidement en repérant facilement celles qui sont mal orientées et celles qui sont retournées.The playing cards according to the present invention thus allow, because of their asymmetry and their shape, the user to straighten them quickly by easily identifying those which are wrongly oriented and those which are turned over.
La figure 3a montre les opérations a effectuer pour orienter toutes les cartes dans le même sens en les regroupant puis en séparant les cartes i orientées différemment en les écartant selon F, F .FIG. 3a shows the operations to be carried out to orient all the cards in the same direction by grouping them together and then separating the cards i oriented differently by spreading them apart according to F, F.
La figure 3D montre comment séparer les cartes 15 qui sont retournées par rapport aux cartes 16 en exerçant une pression seion P centraiement sur chaque côté du paquet de cartes 1 puis, avec l'aide de l'index par exemple, en effectuant une séparation des cartes 15 retournées par un déplacement de ce dernier entre les cartes 15 et les autres cartes 16 depuis l'extrémité libre de la partie en forme de virgule jusque vers l'autre extrémité opposée.Figure 3D shows how to separate the cards 15 that are turned over from the cards 16 by exercising a pressure seion P centered on each side of the deck of cards 1 then, with the help of the index for example, by carrying out a separation of the cards 15 turned over by a displacement of the latter between the cards 15 and the other cards 16 from the free end of the comma-shaped part to the other opposite end.
Enfin on peut voir sur la figure 4 que les cartes 1 selon la présente invention, pour un même nombre de cartes, permettent d'obtenir, par rapport aux cartes classiques rectangulaires, moins de volume dans une main et plus de surface de maintien 17.Finally, it can be seen in FIG. 4 that the cards 1 according to the present invention, for the same number of cards, make it possible to obtain, compared to the conventional rectangular cards, less volume in one hand and more holding surface 17.
La face 14 de la carte 1, qui est destinée à comporter les figures ou les signes de jeux de règles différentes, sera de préférence celle ou, lorsque la carte 1 est orientée avec sa tête 10 en haut, comme c'est le cas sur la figure 1, le bord latéral 12 concave soit le coté latéral situé à droite et le bord latéral 13 convexe soit le coté latéral situé a gauche.The face 14 of the card 1, which is intended to include the figures or the signs of sets of different rules, will preferably be that or, when the card 1 is oriented with its head 10 upwards, as is the case on Figure 1, the side edge 12 concave is the side side located on the right and the convex side edge 13 is the side side located on the left.
On peut voir également sur la figure 1 que la face 14 de la carte 1 ainsi orientée est avantageusement compartimentée en cinq zones 20,21,22,23,24 délimitées par des lignes courbes 2 dont l'une 2' est transversale séparant sensiblement la tête 10 de la partie en forme de virgule 11.It can also be seen in FIG. 1 that the face 14 of the card 1 thus oriented is advantageously compartmentalized into five zones 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 delimited by curved lines 2, one of which 2 ′ is transversely substantially head 10 of the comma-shaped part 11.
On peut voir que les lignes courbes 2 font apparaître d'une part sur la partie en forme de virgule deux zones 20,21 s ' étendant chacune respectivement le long de l'un 12,11 de ses bords latéraux et d'autre part sur la têteWe can see that the curved lines 2 show on the one hand on the comma-shaped part two zones 20,21 each extending respectively along one 12,11 of its lateral edges and on the other hand the head
10 une zone 23 occupant une grande partie de la surface de cette dernière et une zone latérale 24 située sur le côté droit. La zone 20 qui s'étend sur le long du bord latéral droit 12 converge de l'extrémité libre de la virgule 11 jusque la ligne transversale 2' et la zone 21 s'étend le long du bord latéral gauche 11 en convergeant de la ligne transversale 2' jusque l'extrémité libre arrondie de la virgule formée par l'extrémité de la zone 20.10 a zone 23 occupying a large part of the surface of the latter and a lateral zone 24 located on the right side. The zone 20 which extends along the right lateral edge 12 converges from the free end of the comma 11 to the transverse line 2 'and the zone 21 extends along the left lateral edge 11 by converging from the line transverse 2 'to the free rounded end of the decimal point formed by the end of the area 20.
Cnaque zone 20,21,22,23 ou 24 est destinée à comporter une figure ou des mots avec des lettres abécédaires ou en Drame, par exemple. Les zones 20,21 et 24 permettent de visualiser clairement les figures ou les mots lorsque les cartes forment une main de cartes à jouer, comme on peut le voir sur les figures 2a à 2c. Ainsi comme on peut le voir sur les figures 2a àCnaque zone 20,21,22,23 or 24 is intended to include a figure or words with letters ABCs or Drama, for example. The zones 20, 21 and 24 make it possible to clearly visualize the figures or the words when the cards form a hand of playing cards, as can be seen in FIGS. 2a to 2c. As can be seen in Figures 2a to
2d les cartes sont orientées d'une certaine manière, verticalement (figure 2a à 2c) ou horizontalement (figure 2ά ) ou superposées en étant décalées vers la droite (figure 2b) ou décalées vers la gauche (figure 2c) en fonction de la règle du jeu sélectionnée faisant apparaître la zone du eu correspondant, par exemple sur la figure 2a la zone 20, sur la figure 2b la zone 21 et sur la figure 2c la zone 24.2d the cards are oriented in a certain way, vertically (figure 2a to 2c) or horizontally (figure 2ά) or superimposed by being shifted to the right (figure 2b) or shifted to the left (figure 2c) depending on the rule of the selected game showing the zone of the corresponding eu, for example in FIG. 2a the zone 20, in FIG. 2b the zone 21 and in FIG. 2c the zone 24.
On notera que les cartes peuvent comporter soit une face avec un graphisme ou une couleur que l'on retrouve sur toutes les autres cartes et une face de jeu soit deux faces de jeu sans sortir du cadre de l'invention. It will be noted that the cards can have either a face with a graphic or a color which is found on all the other cards and a playing face or two playing sides without departing from the scope of the invention.
