FR2634136A1 - Game decoder associated with cutting-out pliers - Google Patents

Abstract

The invention relates to a device making it possible to visualize only the good forecasts marked off in a game grid by concealing other forecasts. It consists of a sheet of paper 1 provided with playing squares 3 having openings 4 made with the aid of pliers 5, only in the winning squares 3, thus producing a control-type grid which is superposed over a used (played) slip in order to conceal the latter and to reveal, in these openings, only the winning forecasts. The device according to the invention is intended particularly for the control of slips or game receipts for the pools, the national lottery, gaming tables, or P.M.U. (State-controlled betting system) races.

Description

The present invention relates to devices of the individual decoder type, enabling a player to instantly know the winning results of games which he has predicted on ballot claws, by total and simultaneous concealment of the other games: being on these ballots.

It is common practice for a player to fill a large number of simple game grids, (notably in the National Loto), and then to experience a lot of difficulties and visual fatigue to search for and compare his forecasts with the results of '' a draw, without prejudging the loss of time spent performing
These tedious checks. The discouragement felt often encourages the latter to limit the number of challenges.

In known devices of this kind, some include a
transparent grid, the winning boxes of which are hidden by
The others work by luminous display, or use indies, or caches. All require a realization
expensive and complex, they are not very receptive to the user.

The present invention overcomes these drawbacks by ensuring
to the player, the instant decoding of his stakes, checked on
bulletins grids; in boxes intended for this purpose.

The present invention relates to the design of a device
simple, easy, efficient, reliable, allowing to visualize excluded
only the winning boxes of a game grid, filled with predictions, ticked on it.

To obtain this result, it is necessary to cut an opening having 3 B 4 mi of diameter approximately, in the center of each winning box, included on the grid, virgin of any brand, of a preexisting game report, or of a sheet opaque paper with the same
The set of these boxes thus perforated using a cutting pliers, therefore constitutes a standard grid of tones to control the ballots played, by superimposing it exactly
on each of them, then allowing only the good results to appear, if they are checked, the whole sheet simultaneously concealing all the others
boxes.

The device, object of the invention, has openings
representing the winning boxes, in a printed game grid
on a sheet of opaque paper.

 According to another embodiment of the invention, its openings are made by a clamp designed for this purpose, characterized by a cutting die, driven by a spring actuated by digital movement, ejecting a piece of the sheet of paper, as well as by a locating window, located on a bar, allowing to position and see a box by inserting and sliding the sheet in the gap of two bars, which are pressed between the fingers to hold this box by pinching, and cut out thus an opening, by digital pressure on the spring.

 The annerated drawings illustrate by way of example an embodiment node in accordance with the present invention.

As shown, the device comprises a sheet of paper I, containing grids 2, consisting of boxes 3, and dtou vertures 4, these, obtained by cutting out some of these boxes, using a pliers 5 comprising two long bars 6 separated from each other on their logger by a gap 7, one of which is pierced by a locating window 8, and the other of a hole of identical size to the window, serving as a guide 9 ; in which slides vertically a cutting die forming a piston IO, driven by a return spring II, fixed under the bar containing the hole, and actuated in depth by digital pressure.

when a box gag @@@@ e3 is slid into the intestice 7 of the clamp 5, exactly below and in front of the locating window 8, there is a digital pressure on the spring II, the cutter 10 s pushes and slides freely in the guide hole 9, perforates the box 3, cuts the paper I from that
Ci, continues its race through the location window 8 to
finally eject a roll of paper I outside of grid 2,
thus achieving a viewer opening intended to be super
placed on the equivalent box of a game bulletin to be checked,
and make appear in this one, any result.

The device which is the subject of the invention is not limiting in
its form or its embodiment. It can receive modi
desired fications without going beyond the framework and the spirit
of the invention. For example indeed, it is obvious that the clamp
punch in particular can be made with diffdr-
annuities of those which have already been described.

The device which is the subject of the invention can be used in all
the cases where we have to control, and to know immediately and precisely, easily and definitively, the real and complete winning results, forecasts made on receipts or bulletins played in various lottery or racing games, in eliminating hesitation, uncertainty * errors and fatigue due to tedious research.

 It can be used with absolute reliability to control and decode all the lights comprising a bulletin filled with forecasts symbolized by markings of signs in boxes reserved for this effect; It is particularly recommended for the control of the Sports Loto, National Loto, Green Carpet games at the traffic lights of P.M.U.
