INVENTOR Kwong Yup Chu ATTORNEY BASKETBALL GAME This invention relates to a novel simulated real basketball game. Although basketball games exist in the prior art as shown by a number of issued patents, none of these prior art games have proved satisfactory because of inadequate catapults or projectors. The present invention utilizes a novel catapult or projector which overcomes the inadequacies of prior art devices thus providing a simple, exciting, and engrossing game allowing the participant to acquire and demonstrate his skill and proficiency. The game of the subject invention is also a useful pacifier distracting the participants from their usual cares and anxieties and providing much desired relaxation from nervous tension.
The game includes a stand bearing a backboard and i a net, a basketball which may be a conventional table tennis or ping pong ball, and a novel catapult or projector.
The ball is placed in a cup at one end of the catapult lever which lever pivots on a pin so that when a finger press or key at the other end of the catapult lever is depressed the cup is elevated to impart upward and outward motion to the ball.
An adjustable stop arm or limiter which pivots on the catapult lever pin regulates the height to which the cup may be raisedand hence the angle and height of motion of the ball.
The position of the stop arm or limiter is adjusted by moving the arm to the desired position while aligning a hole in a downward extending portion of the limiter with one of a series of holes ,in an upward extending portion of the catapult base, and a pin is inserted through the aligned holes to lock the limiter in position.
Accordingly it is an object of the subject invention to provide an improved basketball game.
Another object of the subject invention is to provide a basketball game with an improved catapult or projector.
Still another object of the subject invention is to provide a basketball game with a catapult having means for adjusting the height and angle of projection of the ball.
Yet another' object of the subject invention is to provide an improved basketball game in which proficiency may be developed and skill exercised.
A further object of the subject invention is to provide an improved basketball game which may be utilized to effect enjoyment and distraction from normal cares.
and anxieties.
Numerous other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent as it is better understood from the following description, which, taken in connection with the-accompanying drawings discloses a preferred embodiment thereof;
Referring to the drawings:.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the basketball game of which the goal or net 4 is fixed. Screws 5 are shown for v anchoring the base 1 to suitable means such as a playboard; however any suitable anchoring means may be used such as nuts and bolts, magnetic base, nails, or clamps. The net is normally of an appropriate diameter to accommodate a ball such as the conventional ping pong or table tennis ball shown at 15.
The catapult or projector for activating the ball includes base 6 having upwardly extending portion or projection 12. The lever 7 having the cup or groove 8 at one of its ends and the limiter or regulator 9 both pivot on the pin l0 which extends through and is supported by the projection 12 near its upper extremity.
The projection 12 has holes 11 arranged along the pivotal arc of a downward extending portion of the limiter or regulator 9.
The extent of the upward motion of the cup 8 at one end of the lever 7 is limited or regulated by the stop arm 14 of the limiter or regulator 9.
As shown in FIG. 2, the position of the stop arm 14 is adjusted by pivoting the limiter or regulator 9 to the desired position while aligning a hole in the downward extending portion of the limiter or regulator 9 with one of the holes 11 in the projection 12 and then inserting pin 13 through the aligned holes to effect an interlocking relationship. I
To change the position of the stop arm 14 the pin 13 is removed and the hole in the downward extending portion of the limiter or regulator 9 is aligned with another one of the holes 11 in the projection 12, and then the pin 13 is reinserted to effect an interlocking relationship. j
The cup 8 of the lever 7 is raised to effect propulsion of the ball 15 by placing a finger such as shown at 16 on the key 17 of the lever 7, which key is located at the end of the lever 7 opposite the cup 8, and depressing the key 7. Q
The extent of depression of the key 7, the speed, and the force of the depression along, with the position of the stop arm 14 determines the-angle, the height, and the speed of propulsion of the ball 15. The propulsion angle can be effectively changed by changing the .position of the stop arm 14.
In playing the game the catapult which is free moving takes the place of the basketball player. As the player, the catapult is free moving and can be moved in any direction thus simulating a basketball player in a real basketball game. The catapult allows for varying. the shooting power and distance form the goal 4. The push power in depressing key 17 is very important because this controls the distance the ball 15 will travel. Each time the distance of the catapult from the goal 4 is changed the position of the limiter 9 should be adjusted to effect the correct geometrical running distance fo long shot, high shot, or short shot.
Keep in mind that the catapult of the subject invention allows for adjustment of the angle and height of propulsion of the ball 15.
Suitable pins other than pin 13 may be utilized in the subject invention.
It is thought that this invention and many of its attendant advantages will be understood from the foregoing description, and it will be apparent that various changes may be made in the form, construction, and arrangement of the parts without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention or sacrificing all of its material advantages, the form hereinbefore described being merely a preferred embodiment thereof.
