GAME.
Application filed February 11, 1925 SerialfNo. 8.372.
My invention relates to games and an object of my improvements is to provide an improved game, involving a target,-that is attractive and cheap to make and assemble.
I secure this object in the device illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a front elevation of an apparatus embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is a rear view of the same.
Fig. 3 is a section on the lines, IIIIII (Figs. 1 and 2). I
Fig. L is an elevation of the target showing the face that is inward in its assembled position.
Fig. 5 is a detail section on the lines V-V (Figs. 2 and 3 a is a rectangular sheet, or screen, preferably of cardboard. This is held in a vertical position by having its lower edges near the corners inserted in slots in two transversely extending strips of wood, Z), I). The sheet a is scored across at a a so that the upper portion a, may fold over, as indicated in broken lines in Fig. 3, for convenience in packing. a a is an aperture formed through the sheet (4 toward its upper portion, said aperture having its upper bounding line an arc of a circle with center at as (Fig. 1). a is an aperture through the sheet a just below the center of the aperture a a 0, c, is a cardboard disc cut out at regular angular positions forming radially inwardly extending slots which enlarged to circular form at their inner ends to form the separate blades, or targets, 0 0 c 0 as shown in Figs. 2 and a. The portions 0 0 0, 0 of the disc 0 are scored across their narrower inner ends, as represented at 0?), 0b.
Said targets are cut out to form outwardly extending lugs, 0 0 c, 0 at the center of their upper edges and said targets are provided with Nos. 100, 90, and 80, near their inner ends, and above said numbers each target is provided with a picture of a difierent animal, as a lion, elephant, panther, or tiger. upon a pin, as, which pin bears in the sheet a in such position that as said disc is rotated about said pin, the pictures upon the various targets appear successively in the aperture. a a and the corresponding numbers therein appear in the aperture er as shown in Fig. 1.
The disc, 0, 0, is pivoted 7, is a pin secured adjacent to one. edge the sheet, (4.; e is a drum having radiating spring arms, (Z, (Z, cl, (Z, which arms bear at their outer ends against the-targets, c 0 c 0 to -norm ally hold said targets against the surface of the sheet, a, and to engage the disc, 0, so that it shall be rotated when said drum is rotated. e is a piece of elastic rubber which may be a rubber .band of convenient size cutat one point. One end of the. band, is secured to the pin 7 and the other to the drum 6, and the disc 0 and drum 6 are rotated to wind, the band cf upon said drum and develop the elastic force of the band.
g, is a lug fixed to the sheet a at the inner surface of said sheet so as to have a portion interposed in the line oftravel of the lugs extending from theouter edges of the targets of the disc 0, when said targets are lying close to the surface of the sheet a.
The operation of the above described device is as follows The parts being adjusted as above described and shown in Fig. 1, the player shoots at thepicture of the animal shown through the aperture a If he is successful, the projectile strikes against the target exposed in said aperture and bends it back ward around its narrower portion at the scoring 05, thus carrying the lug 0 beyond the lug g and releasing the disc 0 which is then turned by the action of the band ef on the drum 6, bringing the target 0 into position so that its picture of the tiger shows through the aperture a the lugs 0 engaging against the lug g to hold it in its correct position.
The above described operation is then repeated.
Scoring between two players may be accomplished by setting down the numbers that have appeared through the aperture 6 at each target that one of the players has succeeded in hitting.
hat I claim is 1. In an apparatus of the kind described, a pivoted circular disc of flexible material, said disc being slotted at different angular positions to form a target between said slots, means for automatically rotating said disc about its pivot to bring each of said targets successively to a desired position, means for arresting and holding said disc with said target in said position, said mations so that theyshall yield to the impact ot' the projectile to release the disc.
terial being sufliciently flexible, and said target and holdin means being arranged, so that a target shall yield under the i1npact of aprojectile and in so doing release the holding means.
2. The combination of a carboard disc slotted at different angular positions to form atarget between said slots, an elastic strip secured eccentrically to said disc and to a stationary attaching means, a stationary lug, said target being adapted to engage said lug toprevent the rotation of said disc, said targets being scored at their inner por- 3. In an apparatus of the kind described, a pivoted circular disc of flexible material,
- said disc being provided with targets at dif- .f'erent angular positions toward its periphery,*a drum means for rotating said druin, said drum being provided with elastic arms (Z engaging against said disc, so that said drum shall carry said disc With it When rotated,-saidarms acting to make said disc more resilient, said disk being adapted to engage a stationary part to prevent its r0- tation and to be bent by the iinpact'of the projectile to release it from said engagenient. r
4. In an apparatus of the kind described,
a screen (4 having an aperture a there a through, adisc 0 having targets represented at different angular positions toward the vperiphery thereof,v pivoted to said screen so as to present said targets successively at said opening, 11162 115 1501 automatically rotating said disc, means for arresting and holding said disc with a target at said opening i111t11162111$ for automatically releasing WVlLLIAM F.
