Description

The present invention relates to a six game board in which a game board main body is inclined so that a piece moves three-dimensionally.

Conventionally, a soroku game is known in which a dice is rolled, a piece is advanced in accordance with the number of rolls, and a goal is reached to reach a goal position quickly. However, the competition method has little influence from competitors, and wins and losses are often influenced by the luck of the eyes when rolling the dice.

In addition, the Sugoroku game board itself is flat and other members are placed at various points along the path, but basically the two-dimensional design of the game board and the background of the game are two-dimensional. Limited to expressing. Therefore, there is a limit to the fun of the conventional Sugoroku.

Therefore, there is a device (see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-105386) in which the movement of the piece in the course of the route can be sensed in a three-dimensional manner regardless of how the eyes appear when the dice are swung. .

JP-A-2004-105386

However, in the above-described game device, a plurality of holding members that hold the pieces on the upper surface of the game board, a plurality of placing parts that place the weight member, or the tip of the support that supports the game board is inclined. Since the entire apparatus is complicated, such as being bent in a curved manner or a moving body is arranged on the upper surface of the game board, the parts of the apparatus are wide-ranging, making the manufacture not easy and increasing the cost. In addition, since the content of the competition is complicated, game development is difficult for young and elderly people.

  The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems, gives a three-dimensional movement to the piece with a simple structure, and has a simple competition content that allows players of a wide range of ages to interact with each other while enjoying each other's charm. The challenge is to provide a certain Sugoroku game.

The invention of claim 1 for solving the above-mentioned problem is characterized in that the six requirements game for competing for the piece to reach the goal position early from the start position has the following requirements.
(B) Provided with a plurality of stop holes serving as six traveling paths on the upper surface of the game board main body (b) Provided communication holes connecting two or more stop holes (c) Lower surface of the game board main body The game board body is inclined by providing a support member on the side.

The invention of claim 2 is characterized in that the support member is provided as a downward projecting portion on the lower surface of the game board main body.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, the support member is arranged as a pedestal independent from the game board main body, and a receiving portion provided on the lower surface of the game board main body is placed on the upward projecting portion of the pedestal upper surface. It is characterized by.

In the invention of claim 4, the shape of the piece is a sphere, an elliptical sphere, a polyhedron, a disc, a square plate, a triangular plate, a home base plate (a trapezoidal shape), an animal shape plate, a flower shape plate, a character shape plate, a character It consists of one of the shape plates.

The invention of claim 5 is characterized in that at least one of a magnet, rubber, a suction cup, a weight, and a protrusion is provided as a fixing portion on the lower surface of the base.

The effect of the present invention according to claim 1 is as follows. The game board body has a simple structure in which it is inclined by a support member provided on the lower surface side thereof. The inclination of the game board body changes in a direction to maintain balance each time the competition progresses and the arrangement of the pieces changes. When the inclination of the game board body gives a difference in height to the connection hole, the piece stopped in the connection hole stops at the lowest position of the connection hole by gravity. When the piece moves in the connection hole, the traveling path is advantageously advanced in some cases, and the traveling path is disadvantageously retracted in certain cases. Since the tilt direction of the game board itself changes by moving only one piece of a player, the above-mentioned advantages and disadvantages apply to all pieces stopped in the connection hole. Therefore, you can enjoy the game with a thrill of the advance and retreat of the pieces that the players influence each other, and you can also experience the three-dimensional movement of the pieces due to the synergistic effect of the inclination of the game board body and the connection hole

Next, according to the invention of claim 2, since the game board body and the support member are integrated, the simplest structure for tilting the game board body can be taken. Moreover, there is no worry of losing the support member.

Next, according to the invention of claim 3, since the pedestal is independent from the game board main body, the game board main body having a different traveling path can be easily and freely replaced without changing the pedestal. Never get bored. In addition, when the place where the game is played is not flat, the inclination of the game board body can be secured by making the outer peripheral shape of the base larger than the game board body, and the game can be enjoyed in various places.

Next, according to the invention of claim 4, a piece other than a sphere (elliptical sphere, polyhedron, disk, square plate, triangle plate, home base plate (saddle piece shape), animal shape plate, flower shape plate, character shape plate , The fun of the game increases. In addition, it is useful for young people to learn the names of characters and animals by making the shapes of the pieces into character shapes and animal shapes.

Next, according to the invention of claim 5, since the pedestal does not shift laterally during the game by providing the fixing portion on the lower surface of the pedestal, the position where the game is played is always stable and the game can be enjoyed with peace of mind. be able to.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

1 and 2 are top views of the game board main body showing two different types of travel paths. In both the embodiments, the piece is recommended according to the number of the dice coming from the start position 6 and competes for how quickly the goal position 7 is reached.

FIG. 1 is characterized in that the traveling path is spiral. The outer peripheral shape of the game board main body 1 is circular. By making the outer peripheral shape circular, the inclination direction of the game board main body 1 changes most smoothly. A plurality of stop holes 2 are provided on the spiral traveling path 3 on the upper surface of the game board main body 1, and a plurality of communication holes 4 connecting two or three stop holes are provided. The moving direction of the piece is counterclockwise from the outer side of the spiral as directed by the moving mark 5.

The usage mode of FIG. 1 will be described. First, from the start position 6, advance the number of pieces by the number of dice. When the piece stops at the stop hole 2, the piece remains stopped at that position regardless of the direction in which the game board main body 1 is inclined, so that the piece is advanced from that position in the next order. If the piece stops at the connection hole 4, for example, if it has stopped at the position of the contact hole 4a in the next order, the tilt direction of the game board body 1 changes and the piece moves to the position of 4b. You can advance the piece from the position. This means that the game has progressed advantageously because it is a shortcut. On the contrary, for example, if it stopped at the position of 4b in the connecting hole in the next order, if the tilt direction of the game board body 1 changes and the piece has moved to the position of 4a, the piece is moved from that position. I have to go forward. This means that the game is unfavorably progressed because it means that the course has been moved backwards.

FIG. 2 is characterized in that the travel path is composed of a plurality of concentric circles. A plurality of stop holes 2 are provided on a traveling path composed of four concentric circles 3a to 3d on the upper surface of the game board main body 1 having a circular outer peripheral shape. Further, a plurality of communication holes 4 are provided to connect two or three stop holes. The traveling direction of the piece is counterclockwise as the traveling mark 5 is.

The usage mode of FIG. 2 will be described. The method of advancing the piece is the same as in the embodiment of FIG. The difference is that the piece must always stop at the connection hole 4 in order to quickly move the piece in the direction of the goal position 7, that is, in the direction of the inner concentric circle. If the connection hole 4 cannot be stopped, it will go around the same concentric circle indefinitely. For example, if the tilting direction of the game board main body 1 has changed in the following order and the piece has moved to the position 4b in the following order, it has stopped at the position of the connecting hole 4a on the concentric circle 3a. Since it can shift to, it will advance a game advantageously. However, if the piece remains at the position 4a without changing the tilt direction of the game board main body 1 in the following order even though it stopped at the position of the communication hole 4a, it must proceed on the same concentric circle 3a from that position. However, the progress of the game remains stagnant and disadvantageous.

FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing the game board main body and the support member provided on the lower side of the game board main body. In FIG. 3A, a conical protrusion 8 directed downward is provided on the lower surface of the center of the disc-shaped game board main body 1. In FIG. 3B, a protruding portion 8 that faces downward on the center lower surface of the disc-shaped game board body 1 is formed so that the thickness of the game board body 1 increases from the outer periphery toward the center. This is because the rigidity of the game board body 1 is stronger than that in FIG. 3A, and even if the game board body 1 is loaded from above, it is difficult to be destroyed. In FIG. 3C, a conical recess 9 is provided on the lower surface of the center of the disc-shaped game board main body 1 in a conical shape. On the other hand, a conical protrusion 8 independent from the game board main body 1 is provided as a support member. A pedestal 10 is provided. Since the pedestal 10 is independent of the game board main body 1, the game board main body 1 (for example, two types of game board main bodies as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2) having different travel paths can be easily and freely replaced. Since then, variations of the game will increase, and you will never get bored. In FIG. 3D, the lower surface portion 10 a of the pedestal 10 is made larger than the outer peripheral shape of the game board main body 1. Thereby, when the place of the game is not flat as shown in the figure, the inclination of the game board body 1 can be secured.

FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view for explaining the state of the sphere piece 11 placed on the tilted game board main body 1. FIG. 4A shows a state in which the spherical piece 11 is stopped at the stop hole 2 and stops at the same position regardless of the inclination direction of the game board main body. In FIG. 4B, two sphere pieces 11a and 11b stop at different connection holes 4, and the sphere piece 11a moves toward the center of the game board main body 1 due to the inclination of the game board main body 1. 11b shows the movement of the game board main body 1 toward the outer peripheral direction. Depending on the moving direction of the sphere piece 11, an advantage or disadvantage occurs in the progress of the game.

FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing a state of two types of pieces having different shapes. FIG. 5A shows a state in which the flower-shaped plate piece 12 is placed in the communication hole 4. Since the outer shape of the flower-shaped plate piece 12 is smaller than the connecting hole 4, the piece is picked up by hand with a height higher than the depth of the connecting hole 4. FIG. 5B shows a state in which the animal-shaped plate piece 13 is placed in the communication hole 4. The outer shape of the animal-shaped plate piece 13 is larger than the connecting hole 4 so that the piece can be easily picked. Therefore, a cylindrical protrusion 14 is provided on the lower surface of the piece of the animal-shaped plate 13 so as to be able to engage with the communication hole 4.

FIG. 6 is a side view showing a fixing portion provided on the lower surface of the conical base 10. 6A is a magnet 15, FIG. 6B is a rubber 16, FIG. 6C is a suction cup 17, FIG. 6D is a weight 18, and FIG. Each of the projections 19 is provided as a fixing portion. In any of the embodiments, the pedestal 10 does not shift laterally while the game is in progress, so that the position where the game is played is always stable and the game can be enjoyed with peace of mind.

FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view showing the hole shapes of the stop hole and the communication hole. 7A is a straight hole, FIG. 7B is a V-shaped hole, FIG. 7C is a U-shaped hole, and FIG. 7D is a through hole.

As a rule of the game, when each competitor has one piece, the arrangement of the pieces is inevitably determined by the luck of the dice, and manipulating the tilt of the game board body by the player's will Can not. However, any contestant can win and can be enjoyed by a wide range of ages. If there are two or more pieces, a strategic game development in which each player can tilt the game board body in a somewhat advantageous direction depending on which piece is advanced while looking at the arrangement of the whole pieces. It becomes possible, and even adults can fully enjoy themselves.

  The present invention can be used for a six game board in which a three-dimensional change can be given to the traveling path of a piece by tilting the game board body.
