  • Patent number: 5123650
    Abstract: A maze puzzle has a plurality of separate discs mounted to be independently rotated about a common shaft, which discs each have a plurality of openings by means of which a ball can pass through the discs from the disc through which it entered to the exit opening at the other end of the puzzle. Some of the openings are radially inclined to transfer the ball radially as well as axially and the hole pattern is so designed that the ball must travel axially back and forth between the top and bottom of the puzzle before it can reach the exit opening.
