Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cylindrical jigsaw puzzle, and more particularly to an extendable cylindrical jigsaw puzzle.
  • top edge and bottom edge of the cylindrical jigsaw puzzle are structurally weak because there is no support thereto such that when an impact is applied to the top edge and bottom edge, the cylindrical jigsaw puzzle is easily destroyed or damaged.
  • an improved cylindrical jigsaw puzzle is introduced to the market and has frames for the top edge and bottom edge of the cylindrical jigsaw puzzle so that the structural strength of the conventional cylindrical jigsaw puzzle is enhanced.
  • Having the frames for the top edge and bottom edge of the cylindrical jigsaw puzzle does increase the structural strength of the jigsaw puzzle, but the extension of the jigsaw puzzle is limited. That is, after the frames are added to the jigsaw puzzle, the jigsaw puzzle is not able to extend its application and thus the structure thereof is fixed. Should there be different requirements for the conventional cylindrical jigsaw puzzle, it is impossible for the conventional jigsaw puzzle to fulfill the requirements.
  • the present invention tends to provide an improved cylindrical jigsaw puzzle to mitigate the aforementioned problems.
  • the primary objective of the present invention is to provide a cylindrical jigsaw puzzle having multiple puzzles pieces, a bottom rim, a top rim and an optional cap selectively mounted on top of the top rim such that the cylindrical jigsaw puzzle is able to extend its application depending whether the cap is mounted on the top rim.
  • the puzzle pieces are divided into top puzzle pieces, mediate puzzle pieces and bottom puzzle pieces.
  • Each top puzzle piece has an assembly edge, a step formed on a face adjacent to the assembly edge, two connection arms respectively extending from two opposed sides of the top puzzle piece and a cutout defined in a side face opposed to the side face where the assembly edge is formed.
  • each bottom puzzle piece has an assembly edge, a step formed on a face adjacent to the assembly edge, two connection arms respectively extending from two opposed sides of the bottom puzzle piece and a cutout defined in a side face opposed to the side face where the assembly edge is formed.
  • the top puzzle piece or the bottom puzzle piece has a recessed area defined in a rear side face of the top puzzle piece or the bottom puzzle piece.
  • a further aspect of the present invention is that the bottom rim has an outer flange, an inner flange integrally formed with the outer flange and a first gap defined between the outer flange and the inner flange. Multiple clamping pieces are formed on the inner flange and each clamping piece has a boss formed on an outer face of the clamping piece.
  • the top rim has a positioning flange extending downward from the top rim and an extension flange extending upward from the top rim.
  • the positioning flange has multiple positioning pieces formed on the positioning flange and respectively having a positioning rib formed on an outer face of the respective positioning piece.
  • the extension flange has first securing ribs formed on an outer periphery of the extension flange.
  • the cap has an open end and a closed end having an elongated hole defined through the closed end.
  • the cap further has second securing ribs formed on an inner peripheral wall of the cap to correspond to the first securing ribs.
  • the cylindrical jigsaw puzzle of the present invention includes puzzle pieces (1), a bottom rim (2), a top rim (3) and an optional cap (4) selectively mounted on top of the top rim (3) such that the cylindrical jigsaw puzzle is able to extend its application depending whether the cap (4) is mounted on the top rim.
  • the bottom rim (2) has a closed end and an open end and is composed of an outer flange (21), an inner flange (22) integrally formed with the outer flange (21) and a first gap (23) defined between the outer flange (21) and the inner flange (22).
  • Multiple clamping pieces (231) are formed on the inner flange (22) and each clamping piece (231) has a boss (232) formed on an outer face of the clamping piece (231).
  • the top rim (3) is composed of a ring body (31), a positioning flange (32) extending downward from an inner face of the ring body (31) and an extension flange (33) extending upward from the inner face of the ring body (31) of the top rim (3).
  • the positioning flange (32) has multiple positioning pieces (321) formed on the positioning flange (32) and respectively having a positioning rib (322) formed on an outer face of the respective positioning piece (321).
  • the extension flange (33) has first securing ribs (331) formed on an outer periphery of the extension flange (33) and oblique to a central axis of the top rim (3).
  • the cap (4) has an open end and a closed end.
  • a skirt is extending down from a peripheral edge of the closed end and has second securing ribs (42) formed on an inner face of the skirt and oblique to a central axis of the cap (4).
  • An elongated hole (41) is defined through the closed end of the cap (4).
  • the puzzle pieces (1) are divided into top puzzle pieces (11), mediate puzzle pieces (12) and bottom puzzle pieces (13).
  • Each top puzzle piece (11) has an assembly edge (111), a step (112) formed on a face adjacent to the assembly edge (111), two connection arms (113) respectively extending from two opposed sides of the top puzzle piece (11) and a cutout (114) defined in a side face opposed to the side face where the assembly edge (111) is formed.
  • each bottom puzzle piece (13) has an assembly edge (131), a step (132) formed on a face adjacent to the assembly edge (131), two connection arms (133) respectively extending from two opposed sides of the bottom puzzle piece (13) and a cutout (134) defined in a side face opposed to the side face where the assembly edge (132) is formed.
  • the top puzzle piece (11) as well as the bottom puzzle piece (13) has a recessed area (115,135) defined in a rear side face of the top puzzle piece (11) and the bottom puzzle piece (13).
  • a thickness from a bottom face defining the recessed area (115,135) to a top face of the assembly edge (111,131) is substantially the same as a distance between a bottom face of the positioning piece (321) to the positioning rib (322) or between a top face of the clamping piece (231) to the boss (232) such that when the top puzzle piece (11) is inserted into the second gap (34) of the top rim (3), the positioning ribs (322) are able to abut a bottom face opposite to the assembly edge (115).
  • the bosses (232) are able to abut a bottom face opposite to the assembly edge (131) of the bottom puzzle piece (13).
  • the mediate puzzle piece (12) has extension arms (121) opposed extending from opposite sides thereof to be complementary to the cutouts (114,134) of both the top puzzle piece (11) and the bottom puzzle piece (13) and connection cutouts (122) opposed defined in opposite sides thereof to be complementary to both the top puzzle piece (11) and the bottom puzzle piece (13). Also, each mediate puzzle piece (12) has a thickness the same as that of the top puzzle piece (11) and the bottom puzzle piece (13).
  • each bottom puzzle piece (13) is inserted into the first gap (23) and the bosses (232) are abutted to a bottom face defining the recessed area (135) and opposite to the assembly edge (131) such that the structural strength of the bottom puzzle pieces (13) is enhanced.
  • the step (112,132) of the top puzzle piece (11) and the bottom puzzle piece (13) are respectively abutted to a bottom peripheral edge of the ring body (31) and the outer flange (21).
  • the cap (4) is securely mounted on top of the top rim (3), as shown in Fig. 5.
  • the user is able to use the structure as shown as a money box.
  • the cylindrical jigsaw puzzle can still be assembled. That is, the connection arms (113) of the top puzzle piece (11) are complementary to the cutout (134) of the bottom puzzle piece (13) and the cutouts (114) of the top puzzle pieces (11) are complementary to the connection arms (133) of the bottom puzzle pieces (13) such that the combination between the connection arms (113,133) and the cutouts (114,134) among the top puzzle pieces (11) and the bottom puzzle pieces (13) is able to establish the cylinder.
  • the cylindrical jigsaw puzzle is accomplished.
  • Fig. 8 it is noted that the user may directly employ the structure as shown in Fig. 7 to the structure as shown in Fig. 6 after the bottom rim (2) in Fig. 7 is removed. That is, the top rim (3) is used to combine the top puzzle pieces (11) and bottom puzzle pieces (13).
