A lenticular animation device for animating coded images. A viewing device has a base structure and a pivotally coupled cover structure. A lenticular plate defines a viewing area, and a manually-operated actuation mechanism, such as a crank system, produces longitudinal, reciprocating relative movement between the platen and the lenticular plate. Lateral edge guides maintain alignment. Corresponding alignment formations retained adjacent to the platen and alignment formations in the coded image member cooperate to maintain alignment of the coded image member. Coded images can include user-completed portions, potentially in combination with non-coded images sharing a unified theme, for being colored by a user. Coded images can be exposed by removing an obscuring overlay or applying a reagent or assembled as puzzle pieces to permit user participation in the creation and animation of coded images. Opposed alignment pegs and holes can lock the cover structure against displacement relative to the base structure.

A rectangular wooden jigsaw puzzle workboard includes a panel having an upper surface and a lower surface. The panel has a perimeter edge including a front edge, a back edge, a first side edge and a second side edge. Four drawers are mounted along width of workboard to provide unique sorting, assembly and storage system for puzzle pieces.

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.

Jigsaw puzzles are suddenly easier and more fun to put together requiring less space and time and every puzzle is a puzzle for everyone with Sequential Numbering of each puzzle piece and the Assembly Mat. For years the goal of puzzle designers has been to make puzzles more challenging. As puzzles became more difficult, they were less suitable for all ages. The solution was to design puzzles for a dozen or more different age and ability groups. But this has made puzzles less suitable as a social or interacting event. Sequential Numbering on the back of each puzzle piece and using a full size Assembly Mat showing the outline and number of each puzzle piece has solved these problems. It's a perfect way for a teen puzzle chat, building confidence in a child, spending time with a friend, with the whole family, with a senior or anyone with health issues.

A somatosensory electronic puzzle comprises a puzzle base and puzzle blocks. The puzzle blocks are detachably connected to the puzzle base. The puzzle base comprises a bottom plate and a frame. The frame is disposed with a control module and a storage module for storing a graphic code, and an outer surface of the frame is disposed with a function selection switch. The function selection switch is connected to an input terminal of the control module. The puzzle blocks comprise a combination of one or more light-emitting puzzle blocks, a wind generating puzzle block, a smell generating puzzle block, a rain generating puzzle block, a tree puzzle block, a lightning and thunder generating puzzle block, a person puzzle block, or an animal puzzle block. The one or more light-emitting puzzle blocks comprise a puzzle block comprising a constant color and a puzzle block comprising variable colors.

A symbolic unity ceremony puzzle product in a tray and a method of assembly thereof for a unity ceremony are provided. The symbolic unity ceremony puzzle product comprises a tray comprising a circular cavity, edge puzzle components, and central puzzle components. Each edge puzzle component has a shape of an annular sector comprising an inner arc, an outer arc, and two radially oriented sides. Each of the edge puzzle components is configured to one of engageably connect and contiguously connect with adjacent edge puzzle components. Furthermore, the edge puzzle components are positioned along a peripheral edge of the circular cavity of the tray to form an annular puzzle component. The central puzzle components are positioned in the tray within the annular puzzle component formed by the edge puzzle components. Each central puzzle component is configured to one of engageably connect and contiguously connect with one or more adjacent central puzzle components.

A puzzle table includes: a table body; a rotation bracket; and at least one support bracket. The rotation bracket is mounted on and is parallel to a bottom surface of the table body. The rotation bracket is configured to enable the table body to rotate on a horizontal plane. The at least one support bracket is rotatably mounted on the table body. The at least one support bracket has an in-use state and a folded state; when the at least one support bracket is in the in-use state, the at least one support bracket abuts against a placement surface; and when the at least one support bracket is in the folded state, the at least one support bracket swings to be substantially parallel to the bottom surface of the table body, and the rotation bracket abuts against the placement surface.

The present invention relates to a multi-purpose pairable puzzle system with hanging 3-dimensional puzzle element 100. In the preferred embodiment 100, the system includes a three-dimensional wooden board 146 with a shape or a plurality of shapes 144 cut through and then separated, thus forming a hole through the board 128 having a defined shape 148 through which the complementary three-dimensional shape 102 that was cut out and separated can be fitted to form a completed puzzle. The removable complementary three-dimensional shape 102 will have a small opening 124a, at the top surface through which a ribbon 124 is inserted for the purpose of hanging the removable three-dimensional shape 102. In another embodiment, the entire rear surface 108 of the wooden board 146 will have a paper element 220 fitted. The paper element will have slit lines 216 shaped as the removable wooden three-dimensional element 102 with small attachment points 208 to retain the shape created 212 with the rest of the paper until punched out by the user. When punched out the paper retain the same shape as the removable three-dimensional wooden puzzle element 102.

A puzzle including a background puzzle surface having printed thereon a background puzzle image including image areas and blank areas, and at least one puzzle piece formed of a transparent material having printed thereon a puzzle piece image including image areas and blank transparent areas. When solving the puzzle, the at least one puzzle piece is superimposed over the background puzzle surface and is moved thereon to a correct location in which the image areas of the background puzzle image together with the image areas of the puzzle piece image match and form a cohesive image.
