Abstract

221,927. Spear, A. E. Aug. 11, 1923. Outdoor games. - Apparatus for playing games of skill comprises a number of displaceable plates or targets hinged to a framework, and means adapted to register a score when any of the displaceable plates are struck by a ball delivered by a player. The apparatus consists of a framework 1 formed into compartments each containing a plate 2. The plates are hinged along their lower edges 3 to the framework and normally rest in an inclined position, as shown in Fig. 2, with their upper ends against stops 4. A ball is projected at the apparatus by a player, in some cases by being struck by a racket over a tennis net arranged at a suitable distance in front of the apparatus, and a plate 2, if struck with sufficient force, swings backwards and operates a bell-crank lever 20 to lift an indicating-plate 23 above the framework. The plates may be made of transparent material and an electric lamp 6 may be arranged behind each plate. A plate when struck may close contacts 15, 17, in the circuit of the lamp, thus causing it to light. The lamps are in circuit also with other lamps arranged on a separate scoring-board. If the plates are not struck with sufficient force, only the contacts 15 will be closed and the lamps will be lighted intermittently since the contacts are broken as the plates fall back to their normal position against the stops. The device is thus a measure of the strength as well as the accuracy with which the ball is delivered.
