T0 all 'Lc/i012?, t may concern Be it lrnown that l, @nannies l'vnsponga citizen oi? the United States. residing in Newark, in the countjv oi" Essex and State ot N ew Jersey, have invented certain new and useful lmproveinents in Game Apparatus, or" which the following` is a specification.
Mv present invention relates to an impioiienient in toy projectile 'tl rowing de vices and also relates to an arrangement 'including the improved projectile throwing devices and in which the improved projectile throwing devices find a special adaptation; and a principal feature or my in vention is the employment of means for providing,` aerial trajectory for the projectiles b-v detlecting contact therewith after thev are discharged by gravitv from the discharginor throwing device.
Another 'feature ci my invention is the use of projectiles susceptible to magnetic attraction 'for the purpose ot retrieving the projectiles bv magnetic means after discharge.
@ne of the main objects oil-the invention is to provide ay combined projectile hurlingdevice and projectile retrieving `device adapted for use in toys and the like, in which the direction the projectile is intended to take can with Jr'acilitjfv he controlled, substantial torce gathered by the projectile bj' extremely simple means. and the retrieving` oic the projectile accomplished with .great ease.
nother object oll the invention is to provide loldable case provided with a target l'rime bv which the targets are secured, and which toldable case may be used Jfor containing' the several elements of the gaine.
Still another object ot' the invention is to pr vide a supporting block attached to the projectile throwing implements and having a detlecting; platform thereon.
find a still further object oli the invention is to provide a telescopic member forming the projectile. throwing device and com-- prising' an cuter tubular member pivotallv connected to the supporting block and an inner tubular i ember adapted to slide in the outer tubular member to which the retrieving means are secnred` the telescopic member being provided to permit contracting; oi' the same when it is desired to place the same into the foldable case.
@ne or the advantages of my present embodiment olf game shooter is that it may be made of standardftubing properly formed and or' considerable length, the length of which enables the player to operate the device with acilitj7 either to actuate a.y projectile or to retrieve the saine.
Another advantage of my device is that the greater the length of tubing used in the device described the greater the fall or drop of the projectile, and therefore the greater the hitting` power such projectile will have.
These and other features, capabilities and advantages oil' the invention will appear from the subjoined detailed description or" one speciiic embodiment thereoi1 illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which- Figure l shows in perspective the gaine ready ior use with the projectile throwing` device in position for operation.
2 is a plan view ot the projectile throwing device.
Fig. 3 is an elevation mostly in section of the projectile throwing device.
`Q`in: is an end view of the retrieving` ans ol.l the projectile throwingdevice.
5 is a tragniental perspective illustrattino` the path ci' movement the projectile will take when thrown b v the throwing` device.
G is a fragmental perspective showthe projectile retrieving,- means. n the embodiment shown my game comprises essentially a foldable case C in which a target 'trame T mayY be set up, and a telescopic projectile hurling` device l) havin g at one end a supporting; block S to be disposed in the case when the hurling' device is ready for plajv and at the other end a retrieving means ll.
rthe case compiises essentiall)7 two looX sections ll and l2 hinged to one another at abutting edges, forming one enlarged case when closed for containingthe several elements of the and thus secure the same against loss and when opened forming` two box sections with a partition between them. T0 'the outer end ot the section ll there is pivotally connected the target traine ll having` end memlbers 13 and shelves lfl which are adapted to be folded into the section'll. The end members 13 provided with securing means l5 which arrl connected to said. members 16 ot the section 11 to limit the outward movement of the iframe T and to support the same 1n erect position when ready Jfor use. To the edges .of the shelves 14, targets comprisingk dolls D are pivotally connected. A
rlhe projectile hurling device P comprises essentially an outer tubular member 17 and an inner tubular member 18 slidably mounted in said outer tubular member. The free end of the outer tubular member is provided with an enlarged block member 1S) which is hingedly secured to the supporting block 20 on which is'secured an extension 21 which forms a sight ior aiming, the upperface of which is in alinement with the tace oi' the supporting block S and the block 19 being s0 hinged to said block S that the discharge end of the tubular member 17 Will be directed to such upper faces of the block S and extension 21. rlhe extension 21 has part ci it secured in a slot 26 formed in the block 20, adjacent to which an anvil 2T preferably composed of steel or the like is secured which forms-a striking place on which the projectiles strike When being discharged from. the throwing device.
The inner tubular member 1S at its free end is provided with a block 22 surrounding the same and having a chamfered or countcrsunlr portion terminating at its end 'in alinement with the outer end of the tube 18, such chamiered portion 23 forming.y a mouth for the throwing device. fit one side of the bloclf. 22, a magnet 241: of the horse shoe type is secured having its active ends 25 projecting outwardbeyond the mouth or chamfered portion 23 of the bloclr22.
'ln thev use of the device, ,assuming that the dolls have been raised, the block S for instance positioned in the section 12, the tubular member P positioned relative to the block S, the projectiles 3'? already introduced into the tube 18 through the mouth and the iirst in order oi' discharge of the projectiles 3T anchored against discharge by the active end 30 of the trigger 29, the depression of the arm against the tube 18 will raise the tooth 31 from the said first projectile and thereby permit the discharge thereof from the projectile hurling device. Upon raising such tooth 31, the other tooth 82 Will be depressed to prevent the next projectile from being discharged and thereupon when the lever is released, the projectiles remaining in the tube 18 will be permitted to advance one projectile space and again anchor, the rhi-st one then in order of discharge being stopped by the toothf31 which will then again be distended into the tube 18d.
lllhen retrieving the projectilesthe inner tube 18 is preferably drawn from the tube 17 and the magnet 24 brought adjacent to or into Contact With the projectiles to pick up the same, the greater the length of the tube 18 the greater the facility with which the projectiles may be picked up, the proj ectiles being of metal or material susceptible to magnetic attraction.
