Handheld fidget device

Abstract

A handheld fidget device that has a spinnable, rotational and removable center puck. The center puck can freely rotate about the x, y and z axis, similar to a gimbal. The fidget device can contain interlocking and nested concentric geometric rings and each ring is held in place by the smaller ring nested inside it. This allows each ring to move within the inner and outer ring, allowing the fidget device to have 2D and 3D geometric shapes that make satisfying designs as well as satisfying sounds. The interchangeable center puck can be personalized or branded to contain logos and multicolor art. This fidget device has sensory stimulation that is visual, auditory and tactile and implementing scented materials can touch the sense of smell, allowing this fidget device to stimulate 4 of the 5 human senses.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A fidget device comprising:
 a main body including a plurality of segments in nested relation to each other, the segments together configured to axially extend and retract along a central body axis;   a center hub disposed centrally within the main body and including a central hub axis coaxial with the central body axis; and   a center puck rotatably mounted within the center hub, the center puck being freely rotatable about three orthogonal axes intersecting at a point on the central hub axis.   
     
     
         2 . The fidget device of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of segments comprise a series of interlocked concentrically nested rings configured to expand and contract relative to one another along the central body axis, thereby enabling the main body to extend into a three-dimensional shape and retract into a two-dimensional shape. 
     
     
         3 . The fidget device of  claim 2 , wherein the concentrically nested rings are configured to rotate about the central hub axis. 
     
     
         4 . The fidget device of  claim 3 , wherein the concentrically nested rings include a hexagonal shape. 
     
     
         5 . The fidget device of  claim 4 , wherein the main body includes a hexagonal shape. 
     
     
         6 . The fidget device of  claim 1 , wherein the center puck is annular in shape and includes a center region. 
     
     
         7 . The fidget device of  claim 6 , wherein the center region is configured to receive a magnet. 
     
     
         8 . The fidget device of  claim 1 , wherein the center puck includes an outer radius of curvature nested inside an inner radius of curvature of the central hub. 
     
     
         9 . The fidget device of  claim 1 , wherein the center puck is removable from the center hub. 
     
     
         10 . A fidget device comprising:
 a main body including a plurality of segments comprising a series of concentrically nested, equidistantly spaced rings configured to axially expand and contract relative to one another along a central body axis, thereby enabling the main body to extend into a three-dimensional shape and retract into a two-dimensional shape;   a center hub disposed centrally within the main body and including a central hub axis coaxial with the central body axis; and   a center puck including an outer radius of curvature removably nested inside an inner radius of curvature of the central hub such that the center puck is able to freely rotate about three orthogonal axes intersecting at a point on the central hub axis; and   wherein the concentrically nested, equidistantly spaced rings are configured to rotate about the central hub axis.   
     
     
         11 . The fidget device of  claim 10 , wherein the concentrically nested rings include a hexagonal shape. 
     
     
         12 . The fidget device of  claim 11 , wherein the main body includes a hexagonal shape. 
     
     
         13 . The fidget device of  claim 10 , wherein the center puck is annular in shape and includes a center region. 
     
     
         14 . The fidget device of  claim 13 , wherein the center region is configured to receive a magnet. 
     
     
         15 . A fidget device comprising:
 a hexagonal main body including a plurality of hexagonal segments in nested relation to each other, the hexagonal segments together configured to axially extend and retract along a central body axis;   a center hub disposed centrally within the main body and including a central hub axis coaxial with the central body axis; and   a center puck rotatably mounted within the center hub, the center puck being freely rotatable about three orthogonal axes intersecting at a point on the central hub axis.   
     
     
         16 . The fidget device of  claim 15 , wherein the plurality of hexagonal segments comprise a series of interlocked concentrically nested hexagonal rings configured to expand and contract relative to one another along the central body axis, thereby enabling the main body to extend into a three-dimensional shape and retract into a two-dimensional shape. 
     
     
         17 . The fidget device of  claim 15 , wherein the concentrically nested hexagonal rings are configured to rotate about the central hub axis. 
     
     
         18 . The fidget device of  claim 15 , wherein the center puck is annular in shape and includes a center region, wherein the center region is configured to receive a magnet. 
     
     
         19 . The fidget device of  claim 15 , wherein the center puck includes an outer radius of curvature nested inside an inner radius of curvature of the central hub. 
     
     
         20 . The fidget device of  claim 19 , wherein the center puck is removable from the center hub.
