Definitions

  • the invention relates, as indicated by the statement, to a TOY OR MULTICOMBINABLE MINIATURE ORNAMENT, DIDACTIC OF SKILLS, based on a regular dihedral body, concretely a spherical block subdivided into a regular and accurate number of fractions that can move by means of the user's hands, around the core of the body movements in the direction of its coordinate axes and independently planes to which, said axes, sub-divide, the sphere or the body specific dihedral.
  • the invention claims, primarily to harmonize the structure inside the toy, invariably maintaining the number of pieces external sess of it, with expressions or manifestations own for the representation of the figure, image or character that we want to demonstrate. That is, all the internal parts of the set are invariable as to their function, so that only those cover pieces that show the visible side of the toy will be designed and molded with one of the toy parts that is a "puzzle or jigsaw puzzle "that configures the set in any version of the object, character, animal or thing reproduced.

  • the invention starts from the same concept, an internal spherical medium, having six points of bracing or orthogonally perpendicular to each other.
  • a set of six identical pieces between them which are bridged the six points mentioned above serve as a guide to moving parts and of support.
  • a set of eight dimensionally accurate support pieces seven being movable or movable equal to each other and a fixed being and unequal acting as a pivot for the orbital displacement of others.
  • the functional concept is, substantially, the same.
  • the invention relies on the idea of incorporating a nucleus spherical hollow structure, divided into two parts of grooved adjustment and tongued and having centering means, which are joined together by and by means of fasteners with blind or hidden head in the internal part of the structure including six dwellings - orthogonally and symmetrically distributed for the guide pieces; means for access to said fittings and means for location of the octant which acts as pivot.
  • the invention also relies on the idea of incorporating a piece guidance, which in the same general format of structure, has direct anchoring and securing which while determining the fixing in position of the room does not prevent a certain mobility vertical of it so as not to obstruct the movement of the parts mobile and support.
  • the invention also relies on the idea of seven moving parts mentioned and commented on in the previous idea and which, by the imperative proportional, the equivalent to an octant of sphere, constituted then by a triangular-spherical sector dimensioned with the necessary measures to circulate on the spherical core avoiding the stems of the pieces of guided in the six dwellings mentioned. It's a hollowed out piece by the upper plane so that the central member for the bridging covers, does not exceed the plane defining the face outside (convex) part, while its sides (or catheters) have means to engage relatively in positions marked by the pivot piece stationary or non-movable.
  • the invention also relies on the idea that the immovable pivot piece has a format similar to the previous ones with an identical proportion. She is also integrated by a body recessed by the upper plane but the member central assembly for the cover, slightly exceeds the plane defining the outer face (convex) thereof. And, internally, it has symmetrical radial means which, coincidentally with others the spherical nucleus forms the dwellings for three members elastic engagement (retractable).
  • the immovable piece mentioned above in another version, relies on the central member of the assembly of additional means for mounting a carrier or other object, pendant, ornament or the like, which implies that the piece of recovery, associated with this one, is configured according to characteristics of said means.
  • the spherical member or core is a semi-hollow body divided into two grooved and tongue-and-groove adjustable parts where, while coinciding with the adjustment edges and / or with the axis of symmetry, it is provided with a small bayonet fitting for centering the two parts.
  • One of these parts includes the structure with the female parts for fixing (screwing, pressure or any other) fittings serve as a union to the two parts of the spheres where, the one opposite, has two diametrically opposed holes, with the mouth drowned and oblique through which passes the head of the attachment bracket lost under the sphere.
  • the exterior three delicacies concave, oblong and truncated to a end which are distributed radially and equidistant from each of other. They form the seats for the balls and the springs of retractable elements of the enclavement incorporated in the room- the octant motionless.
  • the six slots for guiding pieces are openwork re-entrant with square mouth and beveled edges, which on the inside are delimited by four parallel walls that penetrate less than half the inner radius of the sphere.
  • the inner edges of these walls are the anchor points for guiding parts.
  • the six openings are equidistant from each other and orthogonally distributed, four coincide with the line of union of the two parts of the sphere-half of each side-and the other two at the poles of each.
  • the first four are delimited by four separate walls between they. Three are contained in semi-spheres that have the points of bridle and others are contained in the opposite semi-sphere and the two seconds are delimited by four plain walls or holes tubular squares.
  • the guide pieces which are mounted in said six openings have the known "T" format of the state of the art.

  • the center of each side coinciding with the axis of its radius, are vertical recesses at mid-height. These are notches that serve to enclose relatively and circumstantially when the coins pass through the locking points of the immovable pivot piece.
  • the octant or pivot-piece has a substantially identical to that of the previous ones and whose dimensions are obviously identical.
  • the assembly means for the cover pieces or enveloping are the same, with a slight difference, it comes out slightly for the coupling of the respective piece of recovery in a special realization case.
  • edges are recessed at right angles, just like the ones that one know. It presents particularly inside vaulted corridors closed inside and open to the outside, radial and equidistant one another. These are guides for housing members of isolation. Three enclavement points composed by the known organs spring and ball. A spring and a ball are housed in said corridors and in the deltasements of the semi-sphere that coincide with them.
