Abstract
Cylindrical labyrinth that comprises a plurality of cylindrical bodies (10), where each one of them presents an outer wall (11) with a labyrinthine path (12) configured to be traversed by a ball (2) between an entry (13) into the labyrinthine path (12) and an exit (14) from the labyrinthine path (12); and a longitudinal shaft (20) configured to pierce and align the cylindrical bodies (10) and to allow the rotation thereof with respect to said shaft (20). Each cylindrical body (10) comprises a transparent cover (70) configured to cover the outer wall (11) of said body (10) and to prevent the ball (2) from falling out from the labyrinthine path (12) thereof.
Claims11
A cylindrical labyrinth comprising:
- a plurality of cylindrical bodies, where each one of them presents an outer wall with a labyrinthine path configured to be traversed by a ball between an entry into the labyrinthine path and an exit from the labyrinthine path;
- and
- a longitudinal shaft configured to pierce and align the cylindrical bodies and to allow the rotation thereof with respect to said shaft;
- wherein each cylindrical body comprises a transparent cover configured to cover the outer wall of said body and to prevent the ball from falling out from the labyrinthine path thereof,
- wherein an axial adapter is configured to remain affixed to the interior of the cylindrical body and to be pierced by the shaft, allowing the rotation thereof, and
- wherein the axial adapter comprises an inner hollow cylinder that presents a through-hole configured to be pierced by the shaft;
- a plurality of radial arms that present adaptation ends configured to fit in affixing slots arranged on an inner wall of the cylindrical body;
- and an intermediate hoop connected to said radial arms.
A cylindrical labyrinth comprising:
- a plurality of cylindrical bodies, where each one of them presents an outer wall with a labyrinthine path configured to be traversed by a ball between an entry into the labyrinthine path and an exit from the labyrinthine path;
- a longitudinal shaft configured to pierce and align the cylindrical bodies and to allow the rotation thereof with respect to said shaft;
- and
- a closing ring configured to be inserted in the shaft and to ensure an axial tightening (FZ) on said cylindrical bodies,
- wherein each cylindrical body comprises a transparent cover configured to cover the outer wall of said body and to prevent the ball from falling out from the labyrinthine path thereof, and
- wherein the closing ring comprises a V-shaped transversal tear that presents a corner aimed at the interior of the closing ring and that extends along an end cylindrical sector thereof;
- and a protuberance arranged in a frontal face of said closing ring in an angular position matching the larger opening of the transversal tear.
A cylindrical labyrinth comprising:
- a plurality of cylindrical bodies, where each one of them presents an outer wall with a labyrinthine path configured to be traversed by a ball between an entry into the labyrinthine path and an exit from the labyrinthine path;
- and
- a longitudinal shaft configured to pierce and align the cylindrical bodies and to allow the rotation thereof with respect to said shaft;
- wherein each cylindrical body comprises a transparent cover configured to cover the outer wall of said body and to prevent the ball from falling out from the labyrinthine path thereof,
- wherein connecting means between the cylindrical body and the cover is configured to join the cover to the cylindrical body and to prevent a relative rotation between the same, and
- wherein the connecting means comprise a relief in the cover configured to be housed in a recess of the cylindrical body, where said recess is located between the outer wall and a frontal wall of the cylindrical body.
