Application May 17, 1939, Serial No. 274,272
5 Claims.
This invention relates to a. tally device primarily adapted for use in connection with the cards used in playing Bingo or equivalent games.
A particular object is to provide a novel means having a plurality oi signals or indicators capable of positioning at various angles to secure horizontal alignment, vertical alignment and 45 angles, or any others that may be necessary.
More specihcally, it is an object to provide such a device in the form of a diaphanous sheet disposable over the Bingo sheet with the indicators or signals in registry with the numbers of the Bingo sheet and operable in place of the individual elements now used in playing the game of Bingo, for disposition on the numbers of the sheet.
The more specific objects and advantages will become apparent from a conside-ration of the description following taken in connection with the accompanying drawing illustrating an operative embodiment. v
In said drawing:
Figure 1 is a view in plan illustrating my improvements applied to a Bingo card or sheet, and
Figure 2 is a cross sectional view taken on the line 2-2 of Figure l.
Referring specifically to the drawing wherein like reference characters designate like or similar parts, Ill designates a conventional card or sheet as used in the playing of the game known as Bingo and which has a playing surface subdivided by transverse lines II and vertical lines I2, thereby providing the usual 25 squares I3 in each of which a numeral' is delineated, usually 35 all being different.
In carrying out the invention, I provide a sheet I4 which may be transparent or translucent as preferred and of any desired color. It may be held removably attached to the Bingo card ,i lli in any suitable way as by means of a rubber band I5.
Associated with each square space I3 is a signal or indicator member I6, of any suitable material, for instance Celluloid and transparent or translucent but preferably contrasting with the sheet I4. The signals or indicators I S as shown are red. They are secured tothe sheet I4 by means of suitable fasteners Il having heads I3 and a pair of prongs I9, for instance oi brass, which are passed through the indicators IS, sheet ill, and then upset as shown in Figure 2. The signals or indicators I6 are movable on the fasteners Il as axes and the signals or indicators are held against the sheet I4 by the fasteners, sufiiciently tight to aiord friction to hold the signals or indicators in any position or angle to which they may be adjusted.
In using the device, the sheet I may be applied to any Bingo card ISI and removably fastened thereto by the rubber band I or any equiv- (Cl. ZVS- 135) alent. When the numbers in the spaces I3 are called, instead of placing a separate game piece as is usual on the number, the signals or indicators It may be moved to a position in the space I3, corresponding to the called number, to the desired angle or position which is agreed upon to indicate that the number has been called. The Winner of course, as in the game of Bingo, will be the one holding a card I0, Whose indicators I@ iirst are arranged i'lve in a row, horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.
Various changes may be resorted to provided they fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
I claim as my invention:
1. In combination With a game sheet having spaces containing indicia, a cover disposed over said spaces of a material sufficiently penetrable by light to enable reading of said indicia therethrough, and movable indicators carried by the cover in registry with the spaces, respectively.
In combination with a game sheet having spaces containing indicia, a cover disposed over said spaces, and movable indicators carried by the cover in registry with the spaces, respectively, said cover being of a material sufficiently penetrable by light to enable reading of said indicia therethrough, and said indicators being diaphanous.
3. In combination with a game sheet having spaces containing indicia, a cover disposed over said spaces, movable indicators carried by the cover in registry with the spaces, respectively, said cover being cfa material suciently penetrable by light 4to enable reading of said indicia therethrough, said indicators being contrasting in light penetration qualities with the sheet, fasteners pivotally connecting the indicators to the sheet.
4. A device of the class .described comprising a sheet adapted for disposition over a Bingo card or the like containing spaces having numerals therein, said sheet being of a material suiciently penetrable by light to enable reading of said numerals therethrough, and indicators carried by the sheet and operable at zones corresponding to the spaces of the card.
5. A device of the class described comprising a sheet adapted for disposition over a Bingo card or the like contaiinng spaces having numerals therein, said sheet being of a material suiiiciently penetrable by light to enable reading of said numerals therethrough,` and indicators carried by the sheet and operable at zones corresponding to the spaces of the card, said indicators and sheet contrasting in light penetration qualities, and pivot members securing the indicators toy the sheet.
JOHN CARNEY.
