Abstract

Use: in entertaining games and logic puzzles. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION: a volumetric logic puzzle consists of differently sized volumetric elements, interconnected with the possibility of layered turns in parallel planes. The communication mechanism of the volumetric elements is formed by semicylindrical protrusions with necks made on the inner faces of the volumetric elements that form the lateral faces of the puzzle, mating grooves made on the inner faces of the volumetric elements, volumetric elements forming the middle layers of the puzzle, and a spring-loaded the axis that connects the latter to each other. On the front faces of the three-dimensional elements in the guide grooves are installed game pieces, which can be moved back and forth due to the presence of a free cell. At least one of the game pieces is made larger, the presence of enlarged pieces and uneven cutting of faces increases the complexity of the puzzle. 1 s.p. flu, 8 ill.

Description

The invention relates to entertaining games conducive to the development of a player playing logical and spatial compositional thinking, namely a logical puzzle.

The aim of the invention is to increase the amusement of a three-dimensional logical puzzle by increasing the variability of its use and complexity.

Figure 1 is given the proposed puzzle, a general view; figure 2 - the main chip; on figs and 4 - types of enlarged chips; 5 is a view along arrow A in FIG. 1; in Fig.16 - the same section; on Fig, 7 volumetric element forming the side layers of the puzzle; on the

Fig - volumetric element forming the middle layers of the puzzle.

Volumetric logic puzzle, a general view of which is shown in FIG. 1 consists of volumetric volume elements 1 and 1 forming a polyhedron, the faces of which are fenced off by a flange 2 passing along the edges of the polyhedron. Cutting the edges of the puzzle, due to the diversity of volumetric elements, is not equivalent, i.e. the number of pivot layers in two mutually perpendicular directions is different. In this case, there are three pivoting layers rotating relative to each other in one direction, and two pivoting layers in the other direction.

On the faces of the volumetric elements 1 and Y, the game chips 3 are located and completely cover them. Over and 36. The index 3 denotes the main game chips, which in this case have the shape of a square. The Za index indicates the largest of the chips, in this case it is four times larger than the main chip, but it is obvious that the largest chip that can be entered into the puzzle should not exceed the size of the largest face of volume element 1 or K. Enlarged chips can take the form denoted by index 36. On the faces of the voluminous elements there is a different number of game elements - chips. There is also a free cell 4 formed by the absence of one of the chips 3.

The main chips 3 (Fig. 2) are a substrate 5 which can be painted in various colors or on which letters, numbers, symbols or fragments of the image can be applied. Each chip 3 has a support leg 6 with a thickening at the end. Game chips Za and 36 can be made as shown in Figs. 3 and 4, i.e. for one whole of two and four chips 3.

On the faces of the volumetric elements 1 and T, parallel mutually intersecting guide grooves 7 are made, the shape of which is conjugated: by the shape of the support leg 6 of the chips 3 (Fig. 4), which are installed in the grooves 1 and spring-loaded 8. At the intersections of the guides grooves 7 are recesses 9 (Fig. 3), which prevent chips from slipping out of the grooves when the layers of volumetric elements rotate relative to each other.

Volumetric elements t forming the side faces of the puzzle (Figs. 6 and 7) have semi-cylindrical protrusions with necks 10 on the inner faces and volumetric elements. 1. The forming middle layers of the puzzle (Fig.6 and 8) have covering grooves 11 and are interconnected by a spring-loaded axis 12 (Fig.6).

Semicylindrical protrusions with necks 10 spanning grooves 11 and a spring-loaded axis 12 constitute a mechanism for coupling volume elements 1 and 1 into an integral polyhedron with the possibility of layer-by-layer rotation with respect to each other.

The essence of the game with the proposed puzzle is the same as in all puzzles of this type: ordering along the faces of the coloring of the puzzle or digital, alphabetic, compositional marks, or combinations thereof. This is achieved by rotating the layers of the volumetric elements and moving the game pieces along the edges of the volumetric elements.

An advantage of the invention is the increased complexity due to the presence of enlarged chips and uneven slicing.
