Description

Technical area

[0001] The invention relates to a magnetic puzzle wall system that serves as a decorative and interchangeable wall picture. It is a combination of a magnetic wall panel, puzzle pieces with a metal layer, and a matching (optionally interchangeable) frame that encloses the puzzle. State of the art

[0002] Puzzles are traditionally used as freestanding play elements and, after assembly, are either disassembled or glued together for decorative use. Magnetic puzzles for children already exist, but these are usually made of simple, flexible materials and are not used as aesthetic home decor.

[0003] A well-known problem with conventional puzzles is that assembled puzzles are difficult to transport and display. The fixation, either with glue or a picture frame, is irreversible, meaning the puzzle pieces cannot be replaced or reused.

[0004] Another problem with conventional puzzles is that there is often no suitable mobile surface, so that the puzzle is difficult to move, pieces can get lost or elements that have already been put together can break. Object of the invention

[0005] The object of the invention is to create a modular and interchangeable puzzle system suitable as a high-quality wall mural. The following technical problems are to be solved: • Flexible reuse of puzzle pieces without gluing or fixing. • Easy assembly and interchangeability of puzzle designs. • The puzzle pieces are securely fixed to a magnetic surface during assembly, without the pieces attracting or repelling each other or getting lost. • Elegant framing that makes the puzzle appear as a unified wall picture. • Suspension so that the puzzle can be assembled and then presented on a flat surface (e.g. table) or on the wall. Solution to the task

[0006] This task is solved by a magnetic puzzle wall system that includes the following components: 1. A magnetic board - This serves as the base for the puzzle. It consists of a metal plate with a magnetic coating and has mounting points so it can be placed on a table or attached to a wall. 2. Interchangeable puzzle pieces - The individual puzzle pieces are coated with a thin metal layer on the back, ensuring they adhere securely to the magnetic board without attracting or shifting. Puzzles with different designs can be easily swapped out. 3. A wooden frame - This seamlessly surrounds the puzzle, giving it a high-quality look. The frame is sized to fit flush with the puzzle pieces, concealing the magnetic board and creating a cohesive picture. 4. Marking on the magnetic board - This shows the exact area for the puzzle so that the pieces can be easily placed. Example

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the magnetic board consists of a thin metal plate with a height of 50 cm and a width of 70 cm. It has two symmetrically mounted hangers so it can be easily attached to a wall.

[0008] The puzzle pieces have a typical interlocking pattern and a metal coating on the back. They adhere to the magnetic board through attraction and can be easily removed or replaced.

[0009] The wooden frame fits snugly around the magnetic board and has an inner edge that lines up exactly with the edges of the puzzle. This creates an aesthetically pleasing, seamless presentation.

[0010] The marking on the magnetic board shows the outer lines of the puzzle to ensure an exact fit for the frame and provide a guide for the dimensions of the puzzle. Advantages of the invention - Interchangeability - Users can purchase and swap different puzzle designs. - No need to fix with glue - The puzzle pieces remain reusable. - Elegant look thanks to the frame - The puzzle looks like a real wall picture. - Flexibility through wall mounting or table use - The magnetic wall can be used as needed.

Claims

[1] Magnetic puzzle wall system, consisting of: • a magnetic wall with a metal surface, • Puzzle pieces with a metal layer on the back, • a wooden frame that fits flush with the puzzle pieces, • as well as suspensions for flexible use, characterized by that the puzzle pieces stick to the magnetic wall without attracting or shifting each other, and that the wooden frame forms an exact border around the puzzle area. [2] Magnetic puzzle wall system according to claim 1, characterized by that the magnetic wall has a marking that defines the exact area for the puzzle. [3] Magnetic puzzle wall system according to one of the preceding claims, characterized by that the puzzle pieces and the frame are modularly interchangeable (due to uniform dimensions) and have different designs. [4] Magnetic puzzle wall system according to one of the preceding claims, characterized by that the wooden frame is removable thanks to a metal layer on the back, so that the puzzle, as well as the frame itself, can be exchanged or replaced. [5] Magnetic puzzle wall system according to one of the preceding claims, characterized by that the suspensions are symmetrical and attached to two sides of the magnetic wall so that the system can be used both horizontally and vertically. [6] Magnetic puzzle wall system according to one of the preceding claims, characterized by that the metal layer of the puzzle pieces (3) is designed in such a way that it only attracts towards the magnetic wall in order to prevent the puzzle pieces from sticking to each other.
