About

The puck is a puzzle in the shape of a hockey puck, i.e. a thick disk. In the centre are two semicircular parts, and around these are 12 segment pieces. The centre can rotate with respect to the segments, and one of its halves can be given a 180 degree turn to change the order of the segments. There are several puck designs. The most common ones are: 1. Numbers 1 to 12, with 'Hockey Puck Puzzle' on the other side. 2. Canadian maple leaf. 3. Rainbow colours, two pieces of each colour. The Hockey Puck was patented by Zoltan Pataki, Udulo Mszmp, and Geza Csomos, on 7 March 1991, WO 91/02574. The mechanism is virtually identical to that of the earlier Kép Korong.
