Description
United States Patent O This invention relates to games and in particular to an electrical analog of an amusement game of the roulette type.
This invention contemplates a game which is played by the manipulation of several fixed and rotatable switches. A group of selector switches is arranged to provide for selection of a desired circuit corresponding to a number in an indicator lamp. At the same time the selector switch also completes a circuit to a rotary switch having a number of possible single pole circuit positions equal to the number in the group of selector switches. The rotary switch is then rotated rapidly so that it stops by chance at some one of the positions of the rotary switch; If the position at which the rotary switch has stopped is the same as that to which the selector switch is connected this completes a circuit to a relay. The relay circuit is arranged to be open at all times even when the relay circuit is completed as above described. But, when a momentary switch is depressed the relay closes if the rotary switch circuit is completed, or, remains open if the rotary switch circuit is not completed. When the relay circuit is completedand the relay terminals close the momentary switch also energizes an indicator lamp to indicate a hit or coincidence. lf the chance stopping position of the rotary switch is not one by which the relay circuit is completed, the operation of the momentary switch energizes a different indicator lamp to indicate a 6m-iss.
The 4game may be played so that so long as a miss is scored the player may continue. Should a hit or coincidence be scored the player is out. The number of players is unlimited and the scoring may be selected any other way Ithat those playing may desire. It is however more fun to see who can stay in the game longest.
' Accordingly it is an object of this invention to provide anelectrical analogue of a roulette type of amusement game.
It isa further object of this invention to provide an electrical amusement game which simulates roulette wherein a number is selected by a switch circuit, and the game played whereby the matching of the' selected number in the random rotation of a rotating switch device, capable of contacting any one of all of the numbers available for selection, results in the elimination of the player.
And yet another object of this invention is to provide an electrical roulette game comprising a number of switch connections from which a selected connection is made and when the circuit is matched by the chance stopping position of a rapidly rotated switch a hit is indicated and .spondingto a roulette wheel will light a matching indi- Il lCC cator to constitute a winning selection and light another' indicator to constitute a miss It is again an object of this invention to provide ani electrical game involving fixed and rotary switches, indieating lights, and a source of power therefor to simulate the game of roulette.
It is still another object of this invention to provide an electrical game of chance in which -a circuit is selected which may be completed through one of the contacts of a rotary switch that has been randomly positioned by an electric motor, if the random position and selected posi tion coincide, the coincidence indicates a hit, and the lack of coincidence indicates a miss It is a still further object of this invention to provide a game of chance which is played by the voluntary selection of a circuit which is electrically connected with an indicator through only one of -a plurality of connecting. paths which are selected randomly by a motor driven device.
These and other objects of this invention are described in the following specification taken together with the'. drawing in which a preferred but not limiting embodiment ofthe invention is shown, and in the appended claims.
In the drawing:
The figure shows an electrical schematic circuit diagram of the game of this invention.
Referring to the accompanying figure, a rotary two pole 6 position switch 101 and 101A is shown which has rotors 124 and 124A mechanically driven by an electric motor 102 through links 100 and 100A when a switch 103 is closed to apply power to motor 102 from a source of electric energy 104. Rotary switch 101`101A may also be manually operated without departing from the spirit of this invention. Source of electric energy 104, while shown in the drawing a-s a battery, may be any other source of electric power such as the A.C. power line or the secondary of an A.-C. transformer. A multiposition switch 105 which may be a push button switch has six pairs of contacts and may be of the type which may have only one button pushed at one time. Pressing any one button releases any other that may be depressed. A common connecting terminal or bar of switch 105 is connected to one side of power source 104. Each of the switch contacts 106A through 111A respectively 0n one side of push button switch 105 is connected to one terminal respectively of each of six lamps 134 through 139 respectively so that when any one of the contacts 106A through 111A respectively is made with contact-bar 140, a circuit is completed through its associated lamp to the other side 144 of power source 104 and that lamp will light to indicate the push button selected. Switch 105 may be a rotary switch in which case the operation of the circuit is identical but selection is made byl rotating a knob `to the selected switch position.V Contactsflll and 111A arepaired, as are 110-and 110A; 109 and 109A; 108 and 108A; 107 and 107A; and 106 and 106A respectively. Thus, for example, depressing the push button which makes a contact for 110 and 110A -against bar 140 of switch 105 completes a circuit through lamp 135 to the power source 104l and lamp 135 will light up. At the same time power is brought to a tenninal 122'of switch 101 through which, if by chance rotor arm-124 is brought into contact with terminal 122 electrical energy will ilow therethrough to relay co-il 128 if switch 127 is closed.
Push button switch arm 111 is connected to rotary switch terminal 123. Arm 109 is connected to lterminal 12.1. Arm 108 is connected to 120. Arm 107 is connected to terminal 119. Arm 106 is connected to.' terminal 118. Terminals 123, 122, 121, 120,.- 1193and 1, .1
are part of switch 101. And each would operate as previously described for terminal 122 if there was a coincidence between the position of arm 124 of switch 101 and a terminal of switch 161 connected to a lcorresponding push button when that push button is depressed. The corresponding one of lamps 134 through 139 is lit up also.
Upon the occurrence of such a coincidence relay coil 128 is energized when switch 127 is closed. Switch 127 is mechanically linked with switch 126 and switch 141. They are 'closed together so that Vif no coincidence has occurred as above described lamp 133 is energized. if a coincidence does occur ythen relay coil 128 is energized and arm 129 is closed against contact 131 to energize lamp 132.
"Switch 101A is coupled by linkage 160A to switch 101. The .contacts of switch 131A are designated the same as those of switch 101 'but each contact has an A following its characteristic number. Thus arm 124A of switch 101A corresponds to arm v124 of switch 101. Lamps 134A to 139A have thus a position correspondence with lamps 134 to 139, and so forth. 'In addition to the indication of a coincidence by the energization of the lamp 132 the coincidence would also beexpressed by the flighting up of a lamp having an A designation such as 134A in group 142 which corresponds to a lamp in group 143 having the same numerical designation without the letter as 134. Switch 141 (coupled with switches 127 and 126 further described below) controls the energization of lamps in group 142 and will light that lamp of group 142 corresponding to the position of arm 124A Vof switch 101A. Although shown in a relationship at right angles to `one another in the circuit, the lamp groups 142 .and 143 may be arranged so yas to be in line with yone another foreasy indication of coincidence.
The system of this invention may be operated without switch section 161A, lamp group 142 and switch :141 with no impairment in the game. 'When constructed and operated without switch 101A lamp group 142 and switch 141, the only indication of coincidence will be the energization of lamp 132.
To describe a typical use of the game the first step is to depress a desired button of push button assembly 105. For our illustration let this be contacts S-108A. Lamp 137 is thus lit up indicating the selection.
If arm 124 of switch 101 had stopped at any other terminal position of switch 101, then no circuit would be completed through switch 127 to relay coil 128 and -relay coil 128 would remain dcenergized. Relay arm .129 then is closed against contact 130 to light lamp 133, indicating la miss and switch 141 closes the circuit to the appropriate position of switch 101A to light one of the lamps of group V142 other than lamp 137A.
It ispossible for one skilled in electrical connection devices to vary the details of this simulated roulettejgame 'without departing from the spirit of this invention 'as described herein and defined in the appended claims. 'While the system yas it has been describedhereinbnly 'indicates 6'positions,greater complexity could beachieved with a greater number of connection units to simulate a roulette game but the operating principle would not be changed thereby.
