Movable puzzle platform
View Patent ↗A movable puzzle platform includes a puzzle board and a board accessible unit. The puzzle board has a bottom for supporting on a playing surface, and a top surface for playing puzzle piece thereon. The board accessible unit is coupled at the bottom of the puzzle board for sliding on the playing surface, wherein the board accessible unit provides accessibility for the puzzle board to move the puzzle board at different planar directions with respect to the playing surface. Therefore, a player is able to move the puzzle board on the playing surface at a desired orientation to assemble the puzzle pieces on the top surface of the puzzle board.
1. A movable puzzle platform for placing a plurality of puzzle pieces thereon, comprising:
a puzzle board comprising a top surface for placing the puzzle pieces thereon; and
a board accessible unit comprising a first moving member coupled with said puzzle board, a second moving member, and a first bearing unit coupled between said first moving member and said second moving member, wherein said first moving member is rotatably mounted to said second moving member by said first bearing unit, enabling said puzzle board to be self-rotated on said playing surface;
the second moving member having a flat base and a protrusion protruded from the center of the flat base toward the first moving member for engaging with the first bearing unit;
wherein an outer circumferential surface of said first moving member is engaged with an inner circumferential surface of said second moving member via said first bearing unit to enable said second moving member being coaxially rotated with respect to said first moving member.
2. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , wherein said puzzle board further comprises a surrounding border wall upwardly extended from a peripheral edge of said top surface of said puzzle board to define a puzzle floor on said top surface within said surrounding border wall.
3. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 2 , wherein said puzzle board further comprises an anti-slipping layer overlapped on said puzzle floor for preventing the puzzle pieces being slipped thereon.
4. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 3 , further comprising a supplement arrangement, wherein said supplement arrangement has one or more drawer cavities formed at sidewalls of said puzzle board between top and bottom surfaces thereof and comprises one or more section puzzle boards slidably received in said drawer cavities, wherein each of said section puzzle boards has a section puzzle floor provided thereof and an anti-slipping layer provided on said section puzzle floor.
5. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , further comprising a supplement arrangement, wherein said supplement arrangement has one or more drawer cavities formed at sidewalls of said puzzle board between top and bottom surfaces thereof and comprises one or more section puzzle boards slidably received in said drawer cavities.
6. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , wherein said puzzle board has a rectangular shape defining two longer longitudinal sides and two shorter transverse sides, wherein two of drawer cavities are spacedly formed at each of said transverse sides of said puzzle board, such that four of puzzle drawers are slidably coupled at said transverse sides of said puzzle board.
7. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , wherein said movable puzzle platform further comprises at least one puzzle drawer, a supplement arrangement and at least one drawer holder, said supplement arrangement comprises at least one drawer cavity formed at sidewalls of said puzzle board, said drawer holder comprises a first magnetic element provided at an inner wall of said drawer cavity and a second magnetic element provided at said puzzle drawer to magnetically attract with said first magnetic element so as to retain said puzzle drawer in said drawer cavity.
8. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , wherein said first moving member is a first ring member and said second moving member is a second ring member which are coaxially engaged with each other via said first bearing unit, such that when said first ring member is rotated within said second ring member, said puzzle board is self-rotated 360° on the playing surface.
9. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 8 , wherein said board accessible unit further comprises a second bearing unit provided at a bottom side of said second moving member for sliding said puzzle board on the playing surface at different planar directions via said second moving member.
10. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , wherein said board accessible unit further comprises a second bearing unit provided at a bottom side of said second moving member for sliding said puzzle board on the playing surface at different planar directions via said second moving member.
11. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , wherein said first bearing unit comprises a holding ring and a plurality of ball bearings spacedly retained at said holding ring in a rotatable manner, such that when said holding ring is coaxially held between said first moving member and said second moving member, said ball bearings are rotatably sandwiched between said first moving member and said second moving member so as to enable said first moving member and said second moving member to be coaxially moved with each other.
12. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , wherein said first bearing unit comprises a holding ring and a plurality of ball bearings spacedly retained at said holding ring in a rotatable manner, such that when said holding ring is coaxially held between said first moving member and said moving member, said ball bearings are rotatably sandwiched between said first moving member and said second moving member so as to enable said first moving member and said second moving member to be coaxially moved with each other.
13. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , wherein said puzzle board is an electronic screen.
14. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 13 , wherein said top surface of said puzzle board is a screen surface that serves as a puzzle floor for player to select and put puzzle piece images together.
15. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , wherein said first bearing unit is arranged between said outer circumferential surface of said first moving member and said inner circumferential surface of said second moving member.
16. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , wherein said first bearing unit is arranged between said first moving member and said second moving member along a length direction of said puzzle board.
17. The movable puzzle platform, as recited in claim 1 , wherein
said board accessible unit further comprises a first coupling member extended from an inner circumferential surface of said first moving member to detachably couple with said puzzle board; or
said board accessible unit further comprises a second coupling element provided on said puzzle board and a third coupling element provided on said first moving member, said second coupling element is detachably couple with said third coupling element to detachably couple said board accessible unit with said puzzle board.
