[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] First embodiment:

[0023] See also Figure 1-3 The English alphabet chess of the present invention comprises a chess piece 1 and a chessboard 4, wherein the chessboard 4 is provided with a plurality of slots 5, and the back of the chess piece 1 is provided with a convex block matched with the slot 5;

[0024] The convex block includes a first clamping block 2 and two second clamping blocks 3, wherein the first clamping block 2 is fixed to the middle part of the chess piece 1, and the two second clamping blocks 3 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the first clamping block 2, and the first clamping block 2 is connected to the second clamping block 3;

[0025] The chess piece 1, the first card block 2 and the second card block 3 are an integrated structure.

[0026] In this embodiment, the chess piece 1 has a length of 9CM, a width of 3CM, and a height of 1CM.

[0027] In this embodiment, the first card block 2 has a length of 3CM, a width of 3CM, and a height of 1CM.

[0028] In this embodiment, the second card block 3 has a length of 3CM, a width of 1CM, and a height of 1CM.

[0029] In this embodiment, a pattern is provided on the front side of the chess piece 1 .

[0030] The chess piece 1 is provided with a plurality of slots 5. When the present structure is used, the chess piece 1 is taken and the protrusion is inserted into the slot 5. At this time, the first block 2 and the second block 3 will fit with the inner wall of the slot 5, and the lower end surface of the chess piece 1 will fit with the inner wall of the slot 5, which can provide a limiting effect for the chess piece 1 on the chessboard 4, and can improve the stability of the chess piece 1 when in use. During the game, the continuity and fairness of the game can be ensured. In the process of carrying the chessboard 4 and moving, the chess piece 1 is not easy to fall off the chessboard 4, and it is not easy to cause the chess piece 1 to be lost;

[0031] If you want the chessboard 4 to be able to bend freely, you can make the chessboard 4 out of rubber material and the chess pieces 1 out of plastic material.

[0032] Second embodiment (when the chess piece 1 adopts a paper structure, it itself adopts the structure described below):

[0033] 1. The chessboard of this chess piece 1 can be a solid square with a dotted square in the center. The side length of the solid square outside is 6CM, and the side length of the dotted square inside the center is 2CM. These two squares constitute a chessboard. 2. There are two chessboards 4 for English alphabet chess.

[0034] 2.1. A chessboard 4 with 56 chess squares is used to play puzzle games and chess (playing chess).

[0035] 2.2. A chessboard 4 having 64 chess squares and dividing lines, on which chessboard 4 can be used for comparison and jigsaw puzzle games.

[0036] The gameplay of this structure is as follows:

[0037] 1. Jigsaw Puzzles

[0038] Using 52 English letter chess pieces, you can make many pictures, most of the English words and some Chinese characters. According to the characteristics of the chess piece 1 and the chess grid, you can give full play to your imagination and use the chess piece 1 flexibly. The chess piece 1 cannot form a diagonal puzzle with the chess grid, but a horizontal and vertical puzzle.

[0039] 2. Play chess (playing chess)

[0040] Using this chessboard with 52 English letters and 56 squares, you can play 4 chess games. The detailed description is as follows:

[0041] 2.1. The 26 uppercase English letters are defined as the chess piece 1 of the side that is flipping over, and the 26 lowercase letters are defined as the chess piece 1 of the other side that is flipping over.

[0042] 2.2 Layout before turning over the chess pieces: Cover and mix the 52 English letter chess pieces 1. When laying out, all the chess pieces 1 cannot be seen, and only one chess piece 1 can be placed in a chess grid.

[0043] 2.3 When playing a flip game, both sides take turns flipping the chess pieces, or moving or capturing chess pieces, until one side's chess piece 1 captures and touches all the other side's chess pieces 1 (or both sides can no longer capture or touch any of the other side's chess pieces 1). When playing a flip game, the side that captures and touches all the other side's chess pieces 1 and still has "alive" chess pieces 1 on its side wins, and the side whose chess pieces 1 are all captured loses; when both sides can no longer capture or touch any of the other side's chess pieces 1 and both sides have alive chess pieces 1, the game is considered a draw.

[0044] The details are as follows:

[0045] When playing flip chess, both sides can only flip one chess piece 1 at a time, and the flipped chess piece 1 can only move into the horizontal position with it each time.

[0046] It moves to an empty chess square adjacent to it horizontally (or vertically), or captures an opponent's chess piece 1 that is smaller than it in a chess square adjacent to it horizontally (or vertically) (if you knock down an opponent's chess piece 1 that is the same size as it, both sides will perish).

[0047] It is especially pointed out that if any of the eight pieces 1 of "M, N, 0, P" and "m, n, o, p" want to capture the opponent's flipped piece 1, there must be a piece 1 between it and the captured piece 1 (this piece 1 can be covered or flipped), and it, the captured piece 1 and the piece 1 in between must be in the same horizontal (or vertical) position. (If the conditions are met, each of the eight pieces 1 can capture any of the 26 pieces 1 of the opponent).

[0048] When the largest chess piece 1 of one side and the smallest chess piece 1 of the other side are adjacent to each other horizontally (or vertically), when the largest chess piece 1 is in the active position, it cannot capture the smallest chess piece 1 of the other side that is adjacent to it horizontally (or vertically); when the smallest chess piece 1 is in the active position, it can capture the largest chess piece 1 of the other side.

[0049] 3. Compare the size (the size of chess piece 1 is the same as that of chess piece 2)

[0050] 3.1 One player takes one of his own chess pieces and chooses any other chess piece of the other player.

[0051] On a chessboard 4 with 64 chess squares, both sides arrange their own chess pieces 1 (the chess pieces 1 must cover the layout, and the players can look at the layout of their own chess pieces 1). When arranging the chess pieces, they can flexibly arrange them according to their imagination and hobbies (multiple chess pieces 1 can be arranged in one chess square, or one chess piece can be arranged across (or across) two chess squares, but chess pieces 1 and chess squares must not be arranged diagonally in the chess squares). When arranging the chess pieces, both sides look at the layout of their own chess pieces 1. After the game is arranged, they can compare the size of the chess pieces.

[0052] One player takes one of his own chess pieces 1 to compare with one of his opponent's chess pieces 1. If the chess piece 1 he takes is larger or equal to the opponent's chess piece 1, he wins, and puts the winning chess piece 1 in the opponent's chess grid (it can be placed in the chess grid where the losing chess piece 1 is located, or in another empty chess grid of the opponent to place the winning chess piece 1). The losing chess piece 1 must be taken outside the chessboard 4. If the chess piece 1 he takes is smaller than the selected chess piece 1, then the chess piece 1 he takes loses and must be placed outside the chessboard 4. The selected chess piece 1 wins, covers the layout in the original chess grid, and can compare again.

[0053] If A (or a) chooses the smallest chess piece 1 of the other party to compare the size, then A (or (a) loses and should be removed. The smallest chess piece 1 can be compared again. If you have the smallest chess piece 1 and the opponent's chess piece 1 you choose is the largest A or a, then the smallest chess piece 1 wins and puts it in the opponent's chess grid. The largest A or a of the opponent should be removed from the chessboard 4.

[0054] If the chess piece 1 taken by the active player is any of the eight chess pieces 1 of “M chess, N chess, 0 chess, P chess, m chess, n chess, 0 chess, p chess”, no matter which chess piece 1 of the opponent it chooses, it wins and puts it in the opponent's chess square, and the opponent takes away the losing chess piece 1.

[0055] In the process of comparing the size, the active party must first flip over the chess piece 1 of its own side, then flip over the chess piece 1 of the opponent it has chosen, and then compare the size again. The two sides take turns comparing the size until one side (or both sides) have compared all the chess pieces 1. The side with more chess pieces 1 left in the 4 squares of the chessboard wins. If both sides have the same number of chess pieces 1 left in the 4 squares of the chessboard, it is a draw.

[0056] Note: The winning chess piece 1 of one side is flipped and placed in the chess square of the losing chess piece 1. 3.2 Both sides take the initiative to compare the size of their own chess pieces 1:

[0057] This type of chess piece 1 comparison is carried out on the same chessboard 4 as the previous type of chess piece 1 comparison, and the layout rules are the same. The regulations on the size of chess piece 1 are basically the same. The differences between this type of size comparison and the first type are: when playing this type of size comparison game, both sides are required to actively pick up a chess piece 1 belonging to their side to compare the size, but when flipping the chess piece 1 in their hands to compare the size, if the chess piece 1 flipped first is larger or the same size as the chess piece 1 flipped later, the side that flipped the chess piece 1 first wins; if the chess piece 1 flipped first is smaller than the chess piece 1 flipped later, the side that flipped the chess piece 1 first loses. When the first comparison is finished, the next time the side that flipped the last chess piece 1 first flips its own chess piece 1 to compare with the opponent's chess piece 1 that flipped later. The rules are the same as the first comparison. The comparison is carried out in turns (the same rules). (Each time the chess piece 1 that loses the comparison is removed, and the chess piece 1 that wins the comparison is flipped and placed in the opponent's chess square.)

[0058] Until both sides have finished comparing their pieces. Finally count and see which side has more pieces left in the other side's squares. The side with more pieces wins; if both sides have the same number of pieces, it's a draw.

[0059] Note: If the first chess piece 1 flipped by the active player is M, N, 0, P (or m, n, o, p), no matter what chess piece 1 the opponent flips next, any chess piece 1 among the eight chess pieces 1 flipped first wins.

[0060] When the largest chess piece 1 and the smallest chess piece 1 are compared in size, no matter how they are compared, the side with the smallest chess piece 1 wins.

[0061] Design of chess piece 1 pattern:

[0062] A beautiful pattern is attached to the blank area in the middle of each chess piece 1, which can add beauty, increase knowledge and broaden horizons in the process of playing the chess piece 1. The pictures can be selected such as: flowers, insects, fish, buildings around the world, famous cities, cultural relics and antiques, historical figures, special stars, etc.

[0063] In the description of this article, it should be noted that relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprises" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.

[0064] While the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that many changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention.
