Two-dimensional puzzle with assignment aid

Abstract

A two-dimensional puzzle is proposed, which is characterized by the fact that the puzzle pieces are provided with letters and numbers on their reverse side in a defined manner, with the help of which it is possible to assign the correct position to the pieces using a coordinate system.

What claimed is: 
     
         1 . Two-dimensional jigsaw puzzle with assignment aid, consisting of a plurality of irregularly shaped puzzle pieces, each of which has at least one recess and/or at least one protuberance, so that they can be arranged together in rows and columns in such a way that they produce a predetermined motif,
 wherein
 the puzzle has a coordinate division along the X-axis and the Y-axis of the rectangle formed by the puzzle pieces, so that rows and columns are formed, and 
 the puzzle pieces have an indication on their rear side which assigns them their associated position in the coordinate system spanned by the X and Y axes, wherein 
 the indication of the X coordinate is present several times in each case when viewed over a complete row and the indication of the Y coordinate is present several times when viewed over a complete column. 
   
     
     
         2 . Puzzle according to  claim 1 , wherein either the X-coordinates in the respective complete rows or the Y-coordinates in the respective complete columns are indicated in a font size such that the corresponding indication is present on the back of each puzzle piece about 10 to about 50 times and thereby fills the entire available area. 
     
     
         3 . Puzzle according to  claim 1 , wherein the complementary coordinate is indicated in the respective complete rows or columns in such a way that the corresponding information is present on the back of each puzzle piece about 2 to about 8 times and in doing so only fills part of the available area. 
     
     
         4 . Puzzle according to  claim 1 , wherein the font size and/or font weight of the one coordinate entry and the font size and/or font weight of the other coordinate entry differ by a factor of 1.5 to 5. 
     
     
         5 . Puzzle according to  claim 1 , wherein the puzzle pieces each have their associated coordinate on their reverse side in the form of a letter and a number. 
     
     
         6 . Puzzle according to  claim 1 , wherein the coordinates are printed on a frame in which the puzzle pieces have to be placed. 
     
     
         7 . Puzzle according to  claim 1 , wherein the coordinates are printed on separate strips which are placed on the sides of the puzzle so that they form a coordinate system. 
     
     
         8 . Puzzle according to  claim 1 , wherein the puzzles contain between 100 and 5000 puzzle pieces. 
     
     
         9 . Puzzle according to  claim 1 , wherein it has a rectangular shape.
