Detailed Description of the Invention
Embodiments of the invention will now be described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying diagrammatic drawings, in which:
Figure 1 shows a schematic side view of a die in accordance with an embodiment of the invention;
Figure 2 shows a schematic end view of the die along arrow II in Figure 1 of the drawings; and Figure 3 shows a schematic cross-sectional view of the die shown in Figures 1 and 2 of the drawings.
Referring to the drawings, a die, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention, is generally indicated by reference numeral 10.
The die 10 includes a hollow body 12. The hollow body 12 defines a plurality of outer faces 14. At least some of the outer faces 14 bear numbers 16 thereon (only some of the numbers being shown in the drawings for expediency). The die 10 further includes a mass 18 held loosely within the hollow body 12. In one embodiment, the die 10 includes a plurality of masses held loosely within the hollow body 12. Advantageously, the mass 18, or masses, are each in the form of a ball. As can best be seen with reference to Figure 3 of the drawings, the ball is arranged to stabilize the die 10 by resting adjacent a lowermost outer face 14.1 of the die 10 when the die 10 comes to rest after having been rolled, in use.
Typically, the hollow body 12 defines more than six outer faces 14. Advantageously, the hollow body 12 defines more than thirty outer faces 14. In the embodiment shown in Figures 1 to 3 of the drawings, the hollow body 12 defines fifty outer faces 14.
Fourty nine of the outer faces 14 bear numbers ranging from one to fourty nine on them. A fiftieth outer face 14.2 is a non number-bearing outer face. The non number- bearing outer face 14.2 can be a blank outer face. Instead, the non number-bearing outer face 14.2 can bear a graphic representation, such as, an icon, a picture, a symbol, or the like, for example, thereon.
The hollow body 12 defines an extreme outer dimension L extending between opposed outer faces 14 of between about 30 mm and about 100 mm. Preferably, the hollow body 12 defines an extreme outer dimension L extending between opposed outer faces 14 of between about 40 mm and about 70 mm. Advantageously, in one embodiment, the hollow body 12 defines an extreme outer dimension L extending between opposed outer faces 14 of about 50 mm. In another embodiment, the hollow body 12 defines an extreme outer dimension L extending between opposed outer faces 14 of about 60 mm. In use, the die 10 can be used in a method of generating a random number. Typically, the method includes rolling the die 10 to generate a random number read from a predetermined outer face, normally an uppermost outer face, of the die 10 when the die 10 comes to rest after having been rolled.
The method can include sequentially rolling the die 10 to generate a random number comprised of a sequence of numbers read from a predetermined outer face of the die 10 each time the die 10 comes to rest after having been rolled. Accordingly, the die 10 can be used in games involving the generation of a random number, or random number sequence. It is envisaged that the die 10 can be used to generate a random number sequence for a lottery competition, or the like, for example.
The mass, or ball 18, is held loosely within the hollow body 12 freely to displace within the hollow body 12. When the die 10 is rolled to generate a random number, the mass, or ball 18, serves to stabilize the die 10 by resting adjacent the lowermost outer face 14.1 when the die 10 comes to rest.
It is to be appreciated, that the invention is not limited to any particular embodiment or configuration as hereinbefore generally described or illustrated.
