Description
`GEORGE BENEDICT ron/LER,
OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
` 4Letten; Patent No. 107,030, dated September 6, 1870.
GAME-BOX :POR- TEN-PIN S.
4.lhe Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making 'part of the same To all whom it may 'concern Be it known that I, GEORGE BENnDIcT-Fownnn, of Brooklyn, in vthe county of Kings and State of NewYork, have invented a new and usefulv adaptation of the old and favorite Game of Ten-Pins, whereby the same is-rendered available for parlor or indoor use, as hereinafter fully shown and described.
In the accompanying drawing'-` v Figure 1 is a side sectional view of my invention, the capsular platform being the part in section.
Figure 12, an enlarged transversecseotion of the capsular platform, closed or blded to form al box.
Figure 3, au enlarged plan` br top view of the capsular platform or box, unfolded for use.
'Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the severa-l figures.
A. represents a box of rectangular form, and so made that, when unfolded'lor opened, its top and bottom surfaces' will vserve as an inclined platform, as shown clearly in fig. 1.' 4 v B'represents the pins which, when designed to be used, are placed upon the inclined platform, the latter being inlaid or painted with spots a, on which the pins are placed, the number of spots corresponding, of course, to the number of pins, (see fig. 3.)
O represents a ball which is suspended from the ceiling by a cord, D, at such. a point that, when the ball isat rest, it will be directly in front of the center ofthe platfin'm, atit-s lower or depressed side, as seen in lig. 1. .lhisball is at such a. height that it will, as it swings, comein contact with the head of every pin it strikes. For this reason the platform is necessarily inclined,`the heads of the pins thereby conforming nearly to the arc' in which the ball swings, (seedotted curved line in iig. 1.)
The operation will, of course,l be readily seen. Themore pl: yers, the same as thc ordinary game of tenpins. No alley-is required, and but one ball, the cord of the latter being attached to the ceiling in such a manner as to admit of being readily detached after playing, so that it may be deposited in the capsular platform or box with the pins.
I do not claim, broadly or separately, a suspended ball, for that has been used in connection with pins, but arranged in different ways from that shown in my Y in vention...
Haring thus described my invention,
lVbat I claim as new, and desire to secure-by Letters Patent, is-
The combination of the suspended ball O, the detached pins B, andzcapsnlar platform or box A, all being constructed and arranged substantially in the manner as and for the purpose specified.A
