  • Patent number: 6116599
    Abstract: The manipulable puzzle of the present invention includes a housing, multiple sliding bars, and multiple movable pieces. The housing has a support surface with an area defined by walls. The sliding bars are retained on the support surface by overhangs extending from opposing walls such that the sliding bars are removable and can slide across the support surface. The sliding bars each have a channel and peak pattern through which the movable pieces are slid as the sliding bars are manipulated to provide adjacent channels for the movable pieces to move through.
