Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for the use of playing dice.
  • the invention relates to a device adapted to contain and use numbered dice for various types of recreational activities.
  • the most common dice are made in the form of cubes with their respective faces numbered from one to six.
  • the dice can have different polyhedral geometric shapes, depending on the number of faces (and numbering).
  • the main shapes are given by the Platonic solids (tetrahedron, cube or hexahedron, octahedron, dodecahedron and icosahedron), used for their regularity in the shapes that guarantees equal possibilities of showing any face.
  • dice can be marked with numbering (in units and/or tens) or with other graphic symbols.
  • This operation is laborious and especially during a game session in which it is necessary to continuously access the box, it determines the continuous interruption of the game itself.
  • the dice are small in size and therefore easily removable if they are not always repositioned in the respective containing element.
  • a further important drawback derives from the need to provide a surface suitable for throwing the dice.
  • a surface suitable for throwing the dice in this context, in the absence of a smooth surface such as that of a table, the use of dice is impossible.
  • Document DE2939802A1 discloses a device for the use of playing dice comprising all the technical features set out in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to overcome the drawbacks above mentioned.
  • a first object of the present invention is to provide a device for the use of playing dice which is capable of containing and retaining all the dice necessary even while using them.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a device for the use of playing dice, which is structurally simple, of low costs, and of ease of use.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a device which is versatile and usable with any number and type of playing dice, regardless of the environment in which the dice are used.
  • the present invention provides a device for the use of playing dice, whose characteristic are part of the subject of claim 1. Further advantageous features are described in the dependent claims.
  • reference number 1 globally indicates a device for the use of playing dice "D”.
  • the device 1 finds particular application for any type of dice "D", regardless of shape and number of faces.
  • the device 1 can be used for six types of playing dice, having the shape of an icosahedron, dodecahedron, decahedron, cubic octahedron and tetrahedron respectively.
  • All the dice “D” can be inscribed inside a spherical volume “S" of the same diameter, which is illustrated in dotted line in figure 6b .
  • the dice "D” preferably have substantially identical volumetric dimensions to each other.
  • the device 1 comprises a main body 2 equipped with a plurality of chambers 3 each of which is configured to contain a respective die "D".
  • the main body 2 is arranged inside a housing compartment 5 defined by a box-shaped element 4. In this situation, the main body 2 constitutes the "core” of the device 1 while the box-shaped element 4 acts as the "shell” of the aforementioned main body 2.
  • the box-shaped element 4 is at least partly made of transparent material in order to visually access the interior of each chamber 3 suitable for containing the respective die "D". In this way, it is possible to visualize each die "D" contained inside the box-shaped element 4.
  • the box-shaped element 4 has a polyhedral conformation equipped with a series of transparent faces 6 (made for example of plastic or glassy material).
  • the main body 2 has a number of chambers 3 equal to the number of faces 6 of the box-shaped element 4. Furthermore, each chamber 3 is placed at a respective face 6 of the box-shaped element 4.
  • the main body 2 also has a polyhedral conformation and each chamber 3 is obtained at a respective face.
  • the box-shaped element 4 and the main body 2 have both a cubic conformation.
  • six faces 6 of the box-shaped element 4 and consequently six chambers 3 of the main body 2 are defined.
  • the shape, and consequently the number of faces 6 and chambers 3, of the device 1 can be any according to the specific needs of use.
  • each chamber 3 has a substantially square-based truncated pyramid conformation.
  • the main body 2 has a central core 7, having a cubic conformation, and wherein each face constitutes a minor surface 8 of the truncated pyramid chamber 3.
  • each chamber 3 therefore has a lying plane of the respective die "D" wherein the die after its rolling inside the chamber 3 rests with a respective face.
  • the major surface 9 is constituted by the face 6 of the box-shaped element.
  • each face 6 also has a frame 10 made of opaque material and apt to contain the transparent material.
  • each chamber 3 also has four oblique side surfaces 11, each of which extending from a respective edge of the central core 7 to the edge of the box-shaped element 4.
  • the box-shaped element comprises a first and a second portion 12, 13 which can be switched between a condition of mutual coupling in which they contain the main body 2 and a decoupling condition in which they allow to extract/insert the body 2 from the compartment 5.
  • the box-shaped element 4 can be opened separating the two portions 12, 13 to remove the body 2 and replace the dices "D".
  • the portions 12, 13 of the box-shaped element (4) are respectively configured as "C" and have peripheral edges 12a, 13a which can be mutually engaged by mechanical interference to define the aforementioned mutual coupling condition.
  • the portions are identical and can be fit with each other around the main body 2.
  • the first portion 12 has a cubic conformation with a face 6a open to access the interior of the aforementioned compartment 5.
  • the second portion 13 is in the shape of a flat sheet for coupling to the first portion 12 to close said open face 6a.
  • the second portion 13 is defined by a face 6 of the box-shaped element 4 which can be coupled by mechanical interlocking into the open face 6a of the first portion 12.
  • the second portion 13 and the first portion 12 can be made in one piece and connected to each other by means of a common side.
  • the common side defines a hinge for moving the second portion 13 approaching/away from the first portion 12 and determining the open and closed configurations of the box-shaped element 4.
  • the dice “D” are never extracted from the device 1 during their usage.
  • the device 1 therefore allows the dices “D” to be collected for easy transport and at the same time to use the dice “D” during the game without having to remove them from the respective chambers 3.
  • the minor surface 8 conferred by the central core 7 in the shape of a cube always guarantees the presence of a horizontal surface on which the die "D” can be thrown. Consequently, the device 1 allows to use different dice “D” in any environment, making the use of the device 1 itself particularly versatile.
