Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a color-display game board operated by the action of magnets.

In games played by arranging white and black stones such as Gomoku Nabe and Othello games, apart from LCD game boards that use large-scale integrated circuits, portable game boards, especially small game boards that are carried in pockets, are played with white and black stones. The stone becomes the size of a pea grain,
Although it is possible in terms of production, it is difficult to arrange them when you pick them up with your fingertips in the game.

For this reason, the stones are large to some extent, and the game board is large as well.

In addition, a large number of stones are needed for the game, and since they can roll around or be lost due to vibrations in vehicles, etc., devices such as adhesion with magnets or adhesives such as vinyl have been devised.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional game board, and incorporates colored stones, which serve as front and back tools, inside the game board, so that the two colors can be changed arbitrarily without directly touching the stones with fingertips. The purpose is to provide a game board.

In order to satisfy the above object, the present invention is constructed as follows.

That is, the present invention consists of a game board main body having a large number of compartments arranged in a square shape each containing stones of different upper and lower colors, and two operating rods of different colors for operating the stones. One of the operating rods accommodates a piece of permanent magnet so that the N pole is located on the surface, and the other is located with the S pole on the surface, and the stone is in the shape of an oblate sphere with the upper and lower ends being the N and S poles. This is a color-coded display game board in which permanent magnet pieces are built-in, non-magnetic colored powder such as glass powder is placed in the compartment to hide the stones, and the surface of the compartment is covered with a transparent plate.

The drawing shows a specific example of the color-coded display game board according to the present invention. In the drawing, reference numeral 1 indicates the game board body, and 2.3 indicates two operating sticks, each of which is decorated with different colors 2a and 3a. .

(black and white in the illustrated embodiment), the game board main body 1 includes a dish-shaped container 4, a lid frame 5 attached thereto, and compartments 6 arranged in a square shape that are accommodated and supported by the container 4 and the lid frame 5. A frame body 7 having
A transparent plate 8 is placed on the frame 1 to close the upper part of the opening of each compartment 6, and each compartment 6 is provided with a stone 9 and a non-magnetic colored powder 10. [In the illustrated embodiment, colored glass powder] is added and the game board body 1 is sieved so that the stones 9 are completely hidden in the colored powder 10. 9b is different in that a permanent magnet piece 11 (in the illustrated embodiment, black and white) is embedded with the upper and lower sides of the magnet having S and N poles.

Further, the stone 9 may be formed of a rubber magnet or the like.

The operating rod 2 has a permanent magnet piece 12 embedded in it so that the north pole appears on its tip surface, and the operating rod 3 has a permanent magnet piece 13 embedded in its tip surface so that its south pole appears.

When the operating rod 2 or 3 approaches the transparent plate 8 of the game board body 1, it is attracted by the stone 91/i and the permanent magnet piece 11 built therein and exposed from the colored powder 10.

At this time, the stone 9 is reversed and exposed by the magnetic poles appearing on the surfaces of the permanent magnet pieces 12, 13 of the operating rods 2, 3.

In order to perform this reversing operation smoothly, each compartment 6 is provided with an inclined surface 14, as shown in FIG. 2, so that the stone 9 comes into contact with the inclined surface 14 to facilitate the reversing operation.

Reference numeral 15 indicates a recess for housing the operating rods 2 and 3 provided in the lid frame 5 of the game board body 1.

The present invention has an inclined configuration, and when playing a game, when the game board body 1 is shaken from side to side, the stones 9 sink into the colored powder 10 and the surface of each compartment 6 becomes a powder surface.

In this state, each person holds one of the operating sticks 2 and 3 and plays the game, with one person holding the operating stick 2 and entering the compartment 6.
When approached, the stone 9 is reversed by the magnet piece 12 in the operating rod 2 and exposed from the colored powder 10, revealing the black color 9a.

Also, when the operating rod 3 is brought close to the compartment 6, the stone 9 rises and a white color 9b appears.

That is, each stone becomes the same color as each operating rod.

Therefore, by alternately exposing the stones in the desired compartment in this way, it is possible to play the Gomoku or Othello game, and there is no risk of losing the stones, and as long as the entire game board is not shaken. Exposed stones cannot be buried back into the colored powder, so we had to wait and try again.
This is a very novel invention as there is no risk of such troubles occurring.
