Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of toys, and in particular to a portable naval chess set. Background Technology
[0002] Naval Warfare is a classic board game that includes two battlefield boards and coordinate boards for both sides, as well as several pieces (usually two colors, used to mark hits and misses respectively). According to the rules of the game, the side that sinks all of the opponent's warships first wins.
[0003] Currently, popular naval strategy games on the market typically consist of two separate boxes. The lid of one box serves as the coordinate board, while the body of the box forms the battleground. Space must also be left between the lid and body to store the game pieces. This type of box is relatively thick and heavy, making it inconvenient to handle.
[0004] Therefore, designing a lightweight, compact, and portable naval chess toy is one of the directions for improving this classic board game. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a portable naval chessboard, which has a simple and compact structure and is easy to carry and transport.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is: a portable naval chessboard, including a first battlefield board, a second battlefield board, a first coordinate board, a second coordinate board, and several chess pieces. The first battlefield board and the second battlefield board are connected by hinges. The facing surfaces of the two battlefield boards are both two-stage stepped surfaces, and grooves are provided on the first step surface of the second-stage stepped surface to form a chess piece placement area. Several first insertion holes are provided on the second step surface in a matrix distribution. The first coordinate board and the second coordinate board are adapted to the first step surface, and their thickness is the same as the step height difference of the second-stage stepped surface. The two coordinate boards are hinged between the first battlefield board and the second battlefield board. Several second insertion holes are provided on the back surfaces of the two coordinate boards in a matrix distribution. Several chess pieces are placed in the chess piece placement area or inserted into the first insertion holes or the second insertion holes, and the combination constitutes a portable naval chessboard.
[0007] The first stepped surface has slots extending along its length on both sides, arranged symmetrically along the chess piece placement area, and corresponding slot strips are provided on the back surfaces of the first coordinate plate and the second coordinate plate.
[0008] Magnets are provided at corresponding positions on the opposite sides of the first and second coordinate plates.
[0009] Magnets are placed at corresponding positions on both of the second step surfaces.
[0010] The chess pieces include boats and marbles.
[0011] The first battlefield board, the second battlefield board, the first coordinate board, the second coordinate board, and the chess pieces are all made of plastic.
[0012] The first coordinate plate, the second coordinate plate, and the two second step surfaces are all provided with horizontal and vertical coordinates.
[0013] The above technical solution has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. The portable naval battle game includes a first battlefield board, a second battlefield board, a first coordinate board, a second coordinate board, and several game pieces. The first and second battlefield boards are used to fold together to form the packaging shell of the portable naval battle game, and also to unfold into areas for both players to place their ships. The first and second coordinate boards are used to package the game pieces in conjunction with their corresponding battlefield boards, and also to unfold as shields, serving as areas for both players to place their projectiles. The first and second battlefield boards are connected by hinges, meaning they can be folded (0° angle) or unfolded into a flat surface (180° angle). The facing surfaces of the two battlefield boards are both two-tiered surfaces, with grooves on the first tier of each second-tiered surface forming a game piece placement area for holding game pieces (including ships and projectiles). Several first insertion holes are arranged in a matrix on the second tiered surface, through which ships are placed. The first and second coordinate plates are adapted to the first stepped surface, and their thickness is the same as the step height difference of the second stepped surface. The two coordinate plates are hinged between the first battlefield plate and the second battlefield plate. Several second insertion holes are provided on the back surface of the two coordinate plates in a matrix distribution. That is, the first and second coordinate plates can overlap on the corresponding first stepped surface and shield the grooves on the first stepped surface, thereby packaging the pieces placed therein. The first and second coordinate plates can also be vertical, and the pieces are arranged on the corresponding coordinate plates through the second insertion holes, which meets the game rules of naval chess. Several pieces are placed in the piece placement area or inserted into the first and second sockets to form a portable naval battle game. In the folded state, the coordinate plate overlaps the first step surface of the battlefield board and is flush with the second step surface. The first and second battlefield boards are closed to form a whole structure, which is compact and easy to carry. In the game state, the first and second battlefield boards are unfolded to 180° and the first and second coordinate plates are vertical, which can meet the game rules for two-player games.
[0015] 2. The first step surface has slots extending along the length direction on both sides, which are symmetrically arranged along the chess piece placement area. The back surfaces of the first coordinate plate and the second coordinate plate are provided with corresponding locking strips to improve the closing strength and accuracy of the coordinate plate and the first step surface, and to prevent the chess pieces from accidentally falling out.
[0016] 3. Magnets are installed at corresponding positions on the opposing sides of the first and second coordinate plates. When the two coordinate plates are vertical in the game state, they can be attracted together by the magnets to maintain their vertical position. Magnets are also installed at corresponding positions on the two second step surfaces. When the plates are in the folded state, they can be attracted together by the magnets to ensure stability in the folded state.
[0017] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, provides further details. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0021] See Figure 1 and Figure 2This is a specific embodiment of a portable naval warfare game. The portable naval warfare game includes a first battlefield board 1, a second battlefield board 2, a first coordinate board 3, a second coordinate board 4, and several pieces 5. The first battlefield board 1, second battlefield board 2, first coordinate board 3, second coordinate board 4, and pieces 5 are all made of plastic. Clearly, the pieces 5 include boats 51 and projectiles 52. The bottom of the boat has multiple pins for insertion into the battlefield board, and the top of the boat has at least one hole for indicating whether a projectile has hit the boat. Furthermore, the projectiles are typically divided into two categories: one category is coated with one color (e.g., gray) to indicate a miss, and the other category is coated with another color (e.g., red) to indicate a hit. These designs are standard features in naval warfare games. The first battlefield plate 1 and the second battlefield plate 2 are connected by hinges. The facing surfaces of the two battlefield plates are both two-stage stepped surfaces. A groove is provided on the first step of the second-stage stepped surface to form a piece placement area 6. Several first insertion holes 7 are arranged in a matrix on the second-stage stepped surface. Typically, horizontal and vertical coordinates are provided on the second-stage stepped surface to facilitate determining the coordinate position of a specific first insertion hole. Usually, the areas of the first and second stepped surfaces are the same. However, depending on actual needs, the area of the first stepped surface can be designed to be smaller than that of the second stepped surface. The first coordinate plate 3 and the second coordinate plate 4 are adapted to the first stepped surface, and their thickness is the same as the step height difference of the second-stage stepped surface. Two coordinate plates are hinged between the first battlefield plate 1 and the second battlefield plate 2. Each coordinate plate has several second insertion holes 8 arranged in a matrix on its back surface. Typically, the coordinate plates have horizontal and vertical coordinates to facilitate determining the coordinate positions of specific second insertion holes. According to the game rules, the horizontal and vertical coordinates on the second step surface correspond to those on the coordinate plates. Additionally, slots 9 extending along the length direction are provided on both sides of the first step surface, symmetrically arranged along the piece placement area 6. Corresponding locking strips 10 are provided on the back surfaces of the first coordinate plate 3 and the second coordinate plate 4. For ease of use, magnets are provided at corresponding positions on the facing surfaces of the first coordinate plate 3 and the second coordinate plate 4, and magnets are also provided at corresponding positions on the two second step surfaces. Several pieces 5 are placed in the piece placement area 6 or inserted into the first insertion holes 7 and the second insertion holes 8, forming a portable naval battle game.
[0022] The method of using this utility model is as follows: In the folded state, the chess pieces are placed in the chess piece placement area, and the corresponding coordinate plates overlap on the first step surface of the battlefield board to form a shield. The two battlefield boards overlap together to form the folded state. When the game needs to be unfolded, the two battlefield boards are unfolded to 180°, the coordinate plates are then erected, and they are attracted together by magnets. The naval chess game can then be played according to the game rules.
