Abstract

The 3 dimensional puzzle has 32 mobile detachable elements that form a sphere. There are two types of elements; one type has studs and their edges are bevelled towards the interior and the other type does not have studs and their edges are bevelled towards the exterior. The inner sphere has a network of grooves around it and the elements with studs slide in these grooves. The other elements are held between these by their bevelled edges.

Description

La présente invention concerne les jeux du type "casse tête't.  The present invention relates to games of the "puzzle" type.

Elle s'apparente au jeu dit : "Cube Hongrois" ou "Rubiks Cube"; son principe de fonctionnement étant fondamentalement différent.It is similar to the game called: "Hungarian Cube" or "Rubiks Cube"; its operating principle being fundamentally different.

Ce type de jeu consiste à arranger les facettes d'un puzzle tridimentionnel. La particularité de l'invention consiste en un arrangement des facettes d'une sphère et en un système de coulissage par rails permettant la mobilité tridimentionnelle des facettes de la sphère. C'est la non existance d'une technique antérieure pour une sphère qui justifie l'invention. This type of game consists of arranging the facets of a three-dimensional puzzle. The particularity of the invention consists of an arrangement of the facets of a sphere and of a sliding system by rails allowing the three-dimensional mobility of the facets of the sphere. It is the nonexistence of a prior art for a sphere which justifies the invention.

L'arrangement permet de diviser une sphère en deux sortes de facettes, les unes montées sur des plots ont les bords bisotés vers l'interieur, les autres noDLunies dé plots ont les bords bisotés vers l'extérieur. The arrangement makes it possible to divide a sphere into two kinds of facets, some mounted on studs have the edges bevelled towards the inside, the other noDLunies of studs have the edges bevelled towards the outside.

Les facettes munies/te plots sont enserées dans le système de rail d'une sphère ( de taille juste inférieure à celle constituée de l'arrangement des facettes ). Les autres facettes sont maintenues en place d coté des precedentes par leur forme bisotée. The facets provided / the studs are enclosed in the rail system of a sphere (of size just smaller than that made up of the arrangement of the facets). The other facets are held in place next to the previous ones by their bevelled shape.

Le système de rails permet une rotation des facettes en fonction de trois axes différents. Chaque facette peut ainsi prendre la place de n'importe quelle autra facette du même type, permettant ainsi plusieurs milliers de combinaisons des facettes de la sphère. The rail system allows a rotation of the facets according to three different axes. Each facet can thus take the place of any other facet of the same type, thus allowing several thousand combinations of the facets of the sphere.

La figure 1 du dessin annexé représente le système de rails sur une hémisphère ( l'autre hémisphère étant identique ). Figure 1 of the accompanying drawing shows the rail system on a hemisphere (the other hemisphere being identical).

La figure 2 represente une coupe de la sphère une fois munie des facettes en foncttion d e l'axe A-A' de la figure 1. FIG. 2 represents a section of the sphere once provided with the facets in function of the axis A-A 'of FIG. 1.

La figure 3 est la coupe grossie d'une partie de la sphère à l'endroit de passage d'un rail. Figure 3 is the enlarged section of a portion of the sphere at the point of passage of a rail.

La figure 4 represente la sphère telle quelle se prdsente une fois terminée, on y voit l'arrangement des facettes.Figure 4 represents the sphere as it is once finished, we see the arrangement of the facets.

L'une des 24 facettes pivot est representée vue du haut ( Fig. 5 ), vue du dessous ( Fig. 6 ) et vue du côté ( Fig. 7 ). One of the 24 pivot facets is shown seen from above (Fig. 5), seen from below (Fig. 6) and seen from the side (Fig. 7).

Ltune des huits facettes non munies de pivot est representée vue de haut ( Fig. 9 ), de côté ( Fig. 10 ) et de dessous (Fig.11). One of the eight facets not fitted with a pivot is shown from above (Fig. 9), from the side (Fig. 10) and from below (Fig.11).

La figure 8 represente l'agencement d'une facette non munie de pivot entre trois facettes à pivot
La figure 12 represente, en coupe l'enchassement des deux sortes de facettes.Figure 8 shows the arrangement of a facet not provided with a pivot between three pivot facets
Figure 12 represents, in section the concatenation of the two kinds of facets.

Le système objet de l'invention peut être commercialisé sous forme de Jeu casse tête, quelquesoit l'ornementation des facettes. Le système peut s'appliquer à des arrangements différents des facettes. The system which is the subject of the invention can be marketed in the form of a puzzle game, regardless of the ornamentation of the facets. The system can be applied to arrangements different from the facets.

C'est d'une part un système de casse tête sphèrique, d'autre part un système de rails permettant le casse tête.  It is on the one hand a spherical puzzle system, on the other hand a system of rails allowing the puzzle.
