[0029] The above-described objects, features, and advantages will become more apparent through the detailed description set forth below with reference to the accompanying drawings, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to easily implement the technical concepts of the present invention. Furthermore, in describing the present invention, detailed descriptions of known technologies related to the present invention will be omitted if they are deemed to unnecessarily obscure the gist of the present invention. Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030]

[0031] Figure 1 is a drawing showing an exemplary configuration of a picture piece puzzle (10).

[0032] As in the example of Fig. 1, the picture piece puzzle (10) includes a plurality of picture pieces (100) and may further include a plurality of adhesive media (300) and a drawing board (500). The picture piece puzzle (10) is configured to include at least the picture pieces (100).

[0033] Each of the picture pieces (100) (see (a) of FIG. 1) has an arbitrary designed shape and is configured to be able to form an entire picture designed through alignment between the picture pieces (100) (alignment through upper and lower overlapping). In the picture pieces (100), a piece picture that is a part of the entire picture is displayed on the front. Adjacent picture pieces (100) are configured so that parts of the piece pictures are identical to each other and a user can align the entire picture through upper and lower overlapping (overlapping) of the same parts of the picture.

[0034] Each of the picture pieces (100) may have the same shape, for example, a rectangular shape, a triangular shape, a heart shape, a circular shape, or any other designed shape (irregular, arbitrary shape). When the picture piece (100) has a rectangular shape, the picture piece (100) may have a rectangular card shape measuring approximately 56*87 mm.

[0035] The picture piece (100) may be composed of paper material, plastic material, and / or metal material. When the picture piece (100) is composed of paper material, the picture piece (100) may have a thickness of approximately 300 gsm (grams per square meter). The number of picture pieces (100) required to complete the entire picture according to the picture piece puzzle (10) may vary depending on the size of the entire picture to be completed and further, the size of the picture piece (100).

[0036] Additionally, each of the picture pieces (100) may further include a fixing mark (110) on the back. The fixing mark (110) may be printed on the back of the picture piece (100) and may be displayed in any shape. For example, the fixing mark (110) may be displayed in a circular shape with a diameter of 2 inches or 1 inch. The fixing mark (110) on the back may be displayed in the center of the back of the picture piece (100) or may be displayed in any position on the back. The positions of the fixing marks (110) on each of the picture pieces (100) may be the same or different. Preferably, the positions of the fixing marks (110) on the back of the picture pieces (100) are the same. The fixing marks (110) are preferably used as marks for the attachment positions of the adhesive medium (300).

[0037] Let us examine in more detail the alignment of the entire picture using the picture fragment (100) and the picture fragment (100) through Fig. 2.

[0038] The adhesive medium (300) (see (b) of FIG. 1) is a component that can attach the picture piece (100) to any object. Each adhesive medium (300) has one side (front) that can be attached to a fixed mark (110) on the back of each picture piece (100), and the other side (back) that can be (detachably) attached to any object to be attached (e.g., a picture board (500), an iron plate, a glass plate, the side of a refrigerator, etc.).

[0039] For example, one adhesive medium (300) is attached to a fixing mark (110) of one picture piece (100), and another adhesive medium (300) is attached to a fixing mark (110) of another picture piece (100). The back of each adhesive medium (300) can be attached to a picture board (500), an iron plate, a glass plate, or the like. Using the adhesive mediums (300), the entire picture composed of the picture pieces (100) can be expressed on a picture frame, wall, or the like.

[0040] The size (diameter) of the adhesive medium (300) may be the same as the size of the fixed mark (110) or may have a size within a certain margin range. The shape (shape) of the adhesive medium (300) may be the same as the shape of the fixed mark (110).

[0041] The adhesive medium (300) may be a double-sided tape or a rubber magnet. For example, the adhesive medium (300) composed of a double-sided tape may have a front side that is attached to the fixed mark (110) as a fixed sticker (a disposable fixed sticker) and a back side that is attached to an arbitrary object as a removable sticker (a fixed sticker that can be reused multiple times). The adhesive medium (300) composed of a rubber magnet may have a front side that is attached to the fixed mark (110) as a fixed sticker (a disposable fixed sticker) and a back side that is formed of a (rubber) magnet, thereby enabling attachment to and detachment from an object such as a steel material or the side of a refrigerator.

[0042] When a double-sided tape is used as the adhesive medium (300), a type of double-sided tape usable as the adhesive medium (300) may have a thickness greater than that of other commonly known types of double-sided tape. For example, the double-sided tape may be attached to the fixing mark (110) with a designed thickness of, for example, 3 mm or 5 mm, ranging from 0.1 mm to 2 cm. When a double-sided tape having a thickness is attached to the fixing mark (110) and fixed to an object, the overall picture formed by overlapping multiple picture pieces (100) may provide a three-dimensional effect.

[0043] Through adhesive media (300), the picture piece puzzle (10) can provide a method of expressing a framed picture for interior design.

[0044] According to one embodiment, the picture board (500) (see (c) of FIG. 1), which may be omitted from the components of the picture piece puzzle (10), is a plate having a two-dimensional space (e.g., rectangular shape) to which picture pieces (100) can be attached. The picture board (500) is formed of a material whose front surface can be combined with the back surface of an adhesive medium (300). For example, the picture board (500) may be formed of a front surface made of a steel plate, a glass plate, an acrylic plate, a plastic plate, a vinyl plate, or the like, and may be configured to allow a plurality of adhesive mediums (300) to be attached or detached from the front surface, and may further include a frame frame.

[0045]

[0046] Figure 2 is a drawing showing an example of the arrangement positions of picture pieces (100) for constructing a designed picture using a picture piece puzzle (10) and the positions of the fixing marks (110) on the back.

[0047] Fig. 2 (a) is a drawing showing the (design) arrangement positions of the picture pieces (100) in the overall circular drawing, and Fig. 2 (b) is a drawing showing further fixed marks (110) designed to be positioned on the back of the picture pieces (100).

[0048] As can be seen in Fig. 2, the picture pieces (100) that make up the picture piece puzzle (10) can form a circular entire picture by overlapping adjacent picture pieces (100) by the user.

[0049] Each of the picture pieces (100) has a jigsaw puzzle displayed on the front and a fixed mark (110) on the back. The jigsaw puzzle of the picture piece (100) has a part of the picture on the front according to the size of the shape of the picture piece (100) among the entire picture of the picture piece puzzle (10). The adjacent picture pieces (100) designed to be partially overlapping (identical) with each other allow the user to overlap (match) (overlap) some of the overlapping pictures to assemble the entire picture.

[0050] In the arrangement positions of the designed picture pieces (100), as can be confirmed in (b) of Fig. 2, the fixing marks (110) on the backs of the picture pieces (100) are designed to be located in different areas. The fixing marks (110) for attaching the adhesive medium (300) are configured so that the picture piece puzzle (10) does not overlap at least so that each of the picture pieces (100) can be stably attached and fixed to a picture board (500), a picture frame, the side of a refrigerator, etc.

[0051] As an example of a partial enlargement of (b) of FIG. 2, one picture piece (100) (e.g., see A of (b) of FIG. 2) has a part of a picture piece of the entire picture of the picture piece puzzle (10) displayed on its front side and a fixed mark (110) on its back side. Another picture piece (100) (e.g., see B of (b) of FIG. 2) has a part of a picture piece of the entire picture of the picture piece puzzle (10) displayed on its front side that is different (partly different) from one picture piece (100) and also has a fixed mark (110) on its back side. Some parts of the picture pieces of one picture piece (100) and the picture pieces of the other picture piece (100) are identical to each other, and the user can put together the entire picture of the picture piece puzzle (10) by overlapping some of the same pictures on top or bottom.

[0052] In addition, another picture piece (100) (e.g., see C in (b) of FIG. 2) has a picture piece (100) and a part of a picture piece (100) that is different (partly different) from another picture piece (100) among the whole picture of the picture piece puzzle (10) on its front side and also has a fixed mark (110) on its back side. Some of the pictures of another picture piece (100) and one picture piece (100) and / or another picture piece (100) are identical to each other, and the user can overlap some of the same pictures above or below to put together the whole picture of the picture piece puzzle (10).

[0053] One picture piece (100), another picture piece (100) and another picture piece (100) overlap each other through overlapping of the same part of the picture above or below, thereby completing the picture (larger picture or the whole picture) of the picture piece puzzle (10).

[0054] An adhesive medium (300) is attached to the fixing mark (110) on the back of each of one picture piece (100), another picture piece (100) and another picture piece (100), and each adhesive medium (300) can be fixed to an object such as a drawing board (500).

[0055] As can be seen in (b) and the partial enlarged view of Fig. 2, the fixing marks (110) (adhesive medium (300)) of one picture piece (100), another picture piece (100) and another picture piece (100) are positioned at different areas (positions) on the back of the designed completed picture, so that each of the picture pieces (100) can be independently attached to an object such as a drawing board (500).

[0056]

[0057] Figure 3 is a drawing showing an example of composing a picture piece puzzle (10) by attaching picture pieces (100) to a drawing board (500).

[0058] A user can attach picture pieces (100) to a drawing board (500) and align (the entire) picture by overlapping some identical (overlapping) pictures between the picture pieces (100) above and below each other. The adhesive medium (300) can have a thickness, so that the aligned pictures can have a three-dimensional effect.

[0059] The picture puzzle (10) according to the present invention allows for more intuitive picture puzzle assembly than a jigsaw puzzle. Unlike the standardized jigsaw puzzle, which determines whether a piece is complete, the completeness of the overall picture can vary depending on the user's intention. Some users may precisely assemble identical pieces to complete the entire picture, while others may roughly overlap the pieces to complete the entire picture.

[0060] In addition, the picture piece puzzle (10) according to the present invention does not require a specific order of placement, and the entire picture can be completed by simply placing the pieces, and new fun can be provided depending on the relative up-and-down positions and heights of the picture pieces (100).

[0061] The present invention described above is not limited to the above-described embodiments and the attached drawings, as various substitutions, modifications, and changes can be made without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention by a person having ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention pertains.
