SOCIETY GAME WITH ROTATAIBLE DISK WITH GROOVE AND BALL NOTGI'IEiIa MOUNTED ABOVE THE FIELD AND COVERED WITH A TRANSPARENT COVER.
Application filed November 28, 1928, Serial No. 322,517, and in Germany May 28, 1927.
This invention relates to a society game consisting of a field and of a rotatable disk with groove and notches arranged along a circle and designed to hold a ball, said disk mounted above the field, and of a transparent disk covering the rotary disk, the game consisting in bringing the ball by the action of the centrifugal force into one of the notches.
Society games of this type are known and also a game in which figures are arranged in a circle and the transparent disk is stationary so that it does not participate in the rotation of the rotary disk.
According to the invention the trans imrent cover consists of a disk of transparent material rigidly connected and rotating with the rotary disk, the outer edge of the circular groove in the rotary disk being downwardly inclined and so large that marks or figures can be painted on the same at the side of which men may be placed in accordance with the number of the notch in the rotary plate in which the ball has stopped.
An embodiment of the invention is illus' trated by way of example in the accompanying drawing in which:
Fig. 1 is a top plan view of the society game.
Fig. 2 is a section on line AB of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 shows a rotary disk of modified construction.
The society game consists of a base plate a along the outer edge of which the numerals from 1 to 18 are marked. At the centre of the base plate a vertical axle 0 is fixed on which rests a rotary plate 7 which may be pressed from sheet metal. This disk 9 comprises a concentric profiled groove with notches 7c regularly arranged. along a circle and designed to hold a ball. The notches 70 form three groups the notches in each group being numbered with one of the numerals from 1 to 6. Owing to the pro file of the groove forming differently inclined ring faces, the ball moves in this profiled groove, when the disk 9 is rotating, in different directions owing to the centrifugal force and, when this disk is stopped,
the ball runs back centripetally into one of the notches 7c. The outer edge of the disk 9 is downwardly inclined towards the field and on this inclined edge figures and signs are marked in symmetrical arrange- .ment. This profiled groove of disk g is covered by a transparent disk f so that the ball 71 cannot be thrown out of the groove. The rotary disk 9 and the transparent disk are rigidly connected with each other by a knob (Z through the intermediary of a washer c and of a counter nut h. The rotary disk 9 might also be cutout of a thick piece of wood or other material, as shown in Fig. 3, in which case the threaded shaft of the knob (Z is screwed into an internally threaded central boring of the disk, the transparent disk 7 being securely held by this knob.
This society game can be played by any number of players. Each player pays a certain amount into the kitty and receives a chipb, for instance in the form of a chessman or the like, which is distinguished from the other chips. The first player rotates the disk 9 and places the man on that number on the base plate a which corresponds to the number of the notch in in which the ball i has stopped. The game continues then according to the rules.
I claim:
A society game, comprising in combination a base plate near the outer edge of which consecutive numerals are marked, a central axle on this base plate, a disk rotatably mounted on said axle having a concentric groove of profiled cross section with notches at the deepest point arranged along a circle said notches subdivided into groups, in which the notches are numbered from 1 to 6 in diiferent succession the outer portion of said disk being downwardly inclined, a disk of transparent material on said rotary disk covering said groove, a knob having a central bore in its shaft placed on said cen tral axle, and a counter nut clamping said rotary disk and said transparent disk from below against the head of said knob.
In testimony whereof I afiix my signature.
