Abstract
The nature of the technicality of this object of invention are
the designs of the exterior Appearance and the functional parts of
this invention. There are four different exterior Designs to this
object of invention. Each design of this object of invention
consists of The new functional part design called the mainframe and
tablets. There are five Mainframes and thirty-two, or thirty-six
pieces of color coded tablets to each of the four Different designs
of these objects of invention. The five mainframes to each of the
four Different designs to these objects of invention are revolvable
components that holds the Tablets in its situated place on the
structure of the object. The tablets are the color coded Parts that
moves on the surface of the revolvable mainframes. The mainframes
and the Tablets are connected by what is called attachment grooves,
and the designs of the Attachment grooves are designed in the form
of the shape of a Triangle or the shape of The letter "T". These
are the technical disclosures of the object of my invention.

Claims
I hereby claim my invention as a geometric functional toy
puzzle:
1. I claim my invention as the first of its kind according to its
exterior appearance and Functional design. I also claim four
different exterior designs for this invention. The design of the
exterior appearance of this invention could either be designed
Octagonally shaped with thirty-two, or thirty-six pieces of color
coded tablets or parts, Or it could be designed Cylindrically
shaped with thirty-two or, thirty-six pieces of Color coded tablets
or parts. I additionally; claim two different attachment or
connective Designs for the functional parts to this invention. The
functional parts of each of the Four different exterior designs to
this invention are the five eight sided revolvable Mainframes and
the thirty-two, or thirty-six pieces of color coded tablets or
parts of The invention. The attachment or connective designs for
each of the five eight sided Mainframe and for each of the
thirty-two, or thirty-six pieces of color coded tablets Or parts,
to each of the four different exterior designs of this invention,
could be Designed with either Triangular shaped or "T" shaped
grooves. These four different Exterior designs, and two different
attachment or connective groove designs, and the Five eight sided
revolvable mainframe design, to this object of invention, are the
Subjects of claims that I claim for my invention.
Description
[0001] I hereby am disclosing the description of my invention.
[0002] This invention that I am describing is a Functional Toy
Puzzle.
[0003] I will describe the function and the design of this puzzle
without numerically specifying The measurement of size of each
related functional part of the puzzle.
[0004] Primarily, this toy puzzle functions on five revolvable
eight sided mainframes, with each Of the five eight sided mainframe
is capable of turning three hundred sixty degrees Clock-wise, or
counter-clock-wise. Additionally; this puzzle could be designed
with Either thirty-two, or thirty-six pieces of color coded
rectangular, or curved shaped tablets Or parts that would be
capable of moving, on the object of the five eight sided Mainframes
of the puzzle, from mainframe to mainframe in a shuffle like
manner.
[0005] This puzzle also consists of a cylindrically shaped shaft
attached completely through The center bore hole of each of the
five designated eight sided mainframes of the puzzle, Allowing
revolvable function for each of the five eight sided mainframes of
the puzzle. The functional attachment of the thirty-two, or
thirty-six pieces of color coded tablets or Parts to the five eight
sided mainframes of the puzzle could be connected by the design of
Protruded triangular shaped, or "T" shaped grooves designed on the
back surface of each Of the thirty-two, or thirty-six pieces of
color coded tablets or parts. And the functional Attachments of the
five eight sided mainframes to the thirty-two, or thirty-six pieces
of Color coded tablets or parts of the puzzle, could be connected
by the design of slitted Triangular shaped, or "T" shaped grooves
designed on the profile surface of each of the Five eight sided
mainframes of the puzzle. The object of this toy puzzle design is
to Organize or match the eight different color of the thirty-two
pieces of color coded Tablets or parts into eight rows of four
alike pieces of colored coded tablets on four Of the five eight
sided mainframes of the object after mixing it up. And or if the
puzzle Consists of thirty-six pieces of color coded tablets or
parts, with eight different colors, The object of this puzzle
design would be to match the thirty-six pieces of color coded
Tablets or parts into eight rows of four and five alike pieces of
color coded tablets, Respectively, to each alternate row on the
five eight sided mainframes of the object After mixing it up. The
rotational movement of each of the puzzle's five eight sided
Mainframes and the shuffling moving action of each of the
thirty-two, or thirty-six Pieces of colored coded tablets or parts
gives this toy a puzzle like function operation.
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
[0006] I have conducted my own patent search and found there is no
invention related or Similar to the functional and exterior design
of my invention. I therefore, believe I am the first and original
inventor of this new functional and ornamental design Of this toy
puzzle invention. This invention pertains to the field of toys and
games Of entertainment designed for both children or adults.
