Claim 1
Independent Claim
209 words
A movable puzzle comprising: at least one set of puzzle pieces each of which consists of a plurality of elongated strips of planar configuration each having length and width dimensions substantially greater than its thickness and having a pictorial representation on at least one of its two flat surfaces which together form a complete pictorial representation on at least one planar face when juxtaposed in a planar configuration edgewise along their length dimension in correct order and with correct longitudinal orientation, and means for mounting said puzzle pieces in upstanding orientation so as to permit movement of the assembled puzzle pieces, said means including a vertically oriented generally rectangular frame having a vertically oriented pocket, open at the top, formed therein, said frame having a length approximately equal to the length of said puzzle pieces and a height dimension approximately equal to the overall width of the juxtaposed puzzle pieces, said frame being operative to provide upright support of puzzle pieces inserted therein through the open top of said pocket, and wheels supporting said frame permitting relative movement of said frame with respect to a surface, said mounting means being configured in a design which together with said complete pictorial representation forms a composite representation of a wheeled vehicle.

A movable puzzle comprising: at least one set of puzzle pieces each of which consists of a plurality of elongated strips of planar configuration each having length and width dimensions substantially greater than its thickness and having a pictorial representation on at least one of its two flat surfaces which together form a complete pictorial representation on at least one planar face when juxtaposed in a planar configuration edgewise along their length dimension in correct order and with correct longitudinal orientation, and means for mounting said puzzle pieces in upstanding orientation so as to permit movement of the assembled puzzle pieces, said means including a vertically oriented generally rectangular frame having a vertically oriented pocket, open at the top, formed therein, said frame having a length approximately equal to the length of said puzzle pieces and a height dimension approximately equal to the overall width of the juxtaposed puzzle pieces, said frame being operative to provide upright support of puzzle pieces inserted therein through the open top of said pocket, and wheels supporting said frame permitting relative movement of said frame with respect to a surface, said mounting means being configured in a design which together with said complete pictorial representation forms a composite representation of a wheeled vehicle.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
40 words
A movable puzzle according to claim 1, wherein the puzzle pieces of a set when correctly juxtaposed form on the two opposite planar faces thereof complete pictorial representations of two different views of the body portion of a wheeled vehicle.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
68 words
A movable puzzle according to claim 1, further comprising a plurality of sets of puzzle pieces and wherein all of the puzzle pieces have the same length and width, the puzzle pieces of each set when correctly juxtaposed forming on the two opposite planar faces thereof complete pictorial representations of two different views of the body portion of a different one of a like plurality of wheeled vehicles.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
66 words
A movable puzzle according to claim 1, wherein the puzzle pieces of a set when correctly juxtaposed form on at least one of its two flat surfaces a complete pictorial representation of the body portion of a wheeled vehicle, including underbody features which together with said mounting means forms a composite representation of a wheeled vehicle having its wheels operatively associated with said depicted underbody features.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
40 words
A movable puzzle according to claim 1, wherein said frame is formed of transparent plastic material for rendering said pictorial representation visible throughout the length and combined width of said puzzle pieces when juxtaposed in planar configuration in said frame.
