The present invention relates to a puzzle box lid holder device designed to hold the puzzle box lid having a puzzle illustration in a position that is always visible to the user. The holder device has a slot within the body which is dimensioned to receive a puzzle box lid wall and hold the puzzle box lid securely in a substantially upright position. The slot is dimensioned to receive a box lid wall up to a depth of approximately 3″ and having a thickness of approximately 0.2″. The slot is recessed across a front portion of the holder device to accommodate box lids of any size. Users can maintain hands-free operation of the box lid while having the puzzle illustration visually available to the user allowing the user to more easily and enjoyably complete the puzzle.

A table dedicated to facilitating the comfort, efficacy, and enjoyment of assembling a jigsaw puzzle which may be adjusted for height, tabletop tilt angle and tabletop rotation, and location. The table has a specialized surface to hold the puzzle pieces in place, an accessory bracket to add accessories such as trays, puzzle box top holder, magnifying glass and other implements to enhance the assembly experience. Trays for sorting puzzle pieces may be attached and detached from a specialized bracket mounted on a support structure. The tabletop may be positioned high enough to be used while standing upright. The use of this table apparatus for other activities is anticipated.

A puzzle of chocolate-based material puzzle pieces is formed by providing a transfer sheet having a design of food-grade material on a first side of the transfer sheet and providing a puzzle piece template having passages shaped as pieces of the puzzle. The puzzle piece template is arranged on top of the first side of the transfer sheet. The passages of the puzzle piece template are filled with a chocolate-based material. After crystallization, the chocolate-based material in the passages of the puzzle piece template form the chocolate-based material puzzle pieces of the puzzle. The chocolate-based material puzzle pieces are removed from the template.

A movable puzzle platform includes a board assembly having a puzzle board with a puzzle plate and a fixing portion extending from the puzzle plate, a supplement arrangement having a supporting portion attached on a bottom surface of the puzzle board and having a first main supporting wall attached on the bottom surface of the puzzle board, and a restricting wall upwardly extended from the fixing portion of the puzzle board and having a first extending wall stacked on the fixing portion of the puzzle board. The first extending wall and the fixing portion of the puzzle board are successively stacked on the first main supporting wall. The puzzle platform is configured for retaining all the unfinished pieces and while allowing the player to conveniently play puzzles.

A rotating assembly and a movable puzzle platform using the same are disclosed in present invention. The movable puzzle platform includes a board assembly having a puzzle board, a kickstand pivotally coupled at the board assembly and the rotating assembly attached on the kickstand and having a first moving member, a second moving member rotatably coupled to the first moving member for forming a holding space and a plurality of ball bearings rotatably received in the holding space for allowing the second moving member rotating with respect to the first moving member. One end of the kickstand is pivotally coupled at the board assembly while a free end of the kickstand is adapted to pivotally fold from the board assembly.

System and method for additional amusement, entertaining and surprising visual or audible reward provided upon completing the reconstructing of a two-dimensional or three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle. The puzzle pieces include conductive pads connected by a conductor such as a wire, a metallic strip or a conductive paint, so that upon assembling the puzzle, the pads are in contact to form a continuous conductive path. The frame or the puzzle pieces include a battery (or an AC adapter) and a visual or audible signaling device operating upon sensing the continuity of the conductive path. Each of the puzzle pieces may include three or more conductive pads, allowing for the forming two or more isolated or connected distinct conductive paths. The conductive path can further affect a time measurement and its related display for timing the puzzle solving.
