The central axes 2 of the central body assembly of the Maple Leaf Rubik's Cube of the present application are separated and are separate parts, and each central axis 2 is respectively arranged through the connecting groove 111 on the corresponding splicing shell 11. The central axes 2 of the central body assembly of the Maple Leaf Rubik's Cube of the present application can be produced separately, and the structure of the separate axis body is not easy to deform and cause cracks during use, and is not easy to break, has good quality stability, and has a long service life of the Rubik's Cube.

[0048] In a possible implementation, the inner wall of the splicing shell 11 is provided with a first cylindrical shell 112, the communicating groove 111 includes a first cylindrical cavity located inside the first cylindrical shell 112, the outer diameter of the cap body 21 is larger than the outer diameter of the first cylindrical shell 112, the central axis 2 is arranged through the first cylindrical cavity, and the cap body 21 covers the end of the first cylindrical shell 112. The first cylindrical shell 112 has a certain length, and the first cylindrical shell 112 increases the contact length with the central axis 2, which is conducive to maintaining the structural stability of the central axis 2 so that it will not shake in the communicating groove 111.

The corner block 3 includes a clamping plate 31, and one end of the center axis 2 located at the clamping block 22 passes through the interior of the corner block 3 and is connected to the clamping plate 31. A spring 6 is arranged between the clamping plate 31 and the bottom plate of the corner block 3, and the spring 6 is sleeved on the center axis 2. A blind groove 311 and a through groove 312 are arranged on the clamping plate 31, and the extension directions of the blind groove 311 and the through groove 312 are perpendicular to each other. When the central axis 2 is connected to the corner block 3, the central axis 2 passes through the interior of the corner block 3, passes through the spring 6, and passes through the through groove 312, and then rotates 90 degrees so that the block 22 is engaged in the blind groove 311, and the first straight wall surface 1122 and the second straight wall surface 1132 limit the central axis 2 to prevent it from rotating easily.
