DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0010] Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a balance beam game apparatus of the present invention is formed by at least a combining piece 10 and at least a base 20, wherein the combining piece 10 is in a shape of wood, a surface of the combining piece 10 is in an arc shape and the other surface of the combining piece 10 is a horizontal plane. The arc-shaped surface of the combining piece 10 is filled with all kinds of non-skid bulges 11 in styles and patterns, so as to prevent from skidding when children step on the bulges 11. The horizontal plane of the combining piece 10 is also filled with all kinds of non-skid stripes 12 in styles and patterns and at least a cavity 13 for climbing. Two ends of the combining piece 10 are provided respectively with a locking slot 14, 15 at a proper location, and the locking slots 14, 15 are in a long rectangular shape.

[0011] Above the base 20 is provided at least with a connecting slot 21, and below the base 20 is also provided at least with a connecting slot 24. The upper connecting slot 21 is in a U-shape and a bottom of the upper connecting slot 21 is in an arc shape; whereas, the lower connecting slot 24 is in an inverted-U shape. A wall on each of two sides of the upper connecting slot 21 above the base 20 is provided respectively with a locking block 23 in a long rectangular shape. The locking block 23 is extended with a horizontal plane 22 on a lower side and is then connected downward to a bottom of the connecting slot 21. A wall on each of two sides of the connecting slot 24 below the base 20 is also provided respectively with a locking block 25 in a long rectangular shape.

[0012] When the combining piece 10 is disposed in the connecting slot 21 of the base 20 with the horizontal plane, a bottom on the horizontal plane of the combining piece 10 is disposed flat on two horizontal planes 22 of the connecting slot 21 of the base 20. In association with the combining piece 10 on the top portion in FIG. 2, when the combining piece 10 is flipped upside down, so that another arc-shaped surface is used as a bottom surface, a bottom of the arc-shaped surface of the combining piece 10 is disposed at an arc-shaped bottom of the connecting slot 21 above the base 20.

[0013] Referring to FIG. 3, it shows a left side view of the present invention. A locking block 23 on one of two sides of the connecting slot 21 above the base 20 is latched respectively in a locking slot 15 on one of two sides of the combining piece 10; Referring to FIG. 3, it shows a right side view of the present invention. whereas, two locking blocks 23 on two sides of the connecting slot 21 above the base 20 are latched respectively in two locking slots 14 on two sides of the combining piece 10.

[0014] Referring to FIG. 4, it shows a left side view of the present invention. two locking blocks 25 on two sides of the connecting slot 24 below the base 20 are latched respectively in two locking slots 15 on two sides of the combining piece 10; Referring to FIG. 4, it shows a right side view of the present invention. whereas, a locking block 25 on one of two sides of the connecting slot 24 below the base 20 is latched respectively in a locking slot 14 on one of two sides of the combining piece 10.

[0015] Referring to FIG. 5, it shows a schematic view of assembly that plural bases 20 are fitted with plural combining pieces 10. In addition to that the combining pieces 10 are latched in the connecting slots 21 above the bases 20 with the arc-shaped surfaces or the horizontal planes as bottom surfaces, the combining pieces 20 can be also latched in the connecting slots 24 below the bases 20 with the arc-shaped surfaces or the horizontal planes as top surfaces, thereby being assembled into game apparatuses in all kinds of shapes.

[0016] In light of above, and in accordance with the above description of the embodiments, a balance beam game apparatus of the present invention can be very fun and can be played with in many different ways.

[0017] It is of course to be understood that the embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention and that a wide variety of modifications thereto may be effected by persons skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth in the following claims.
