Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A lightweight portable shuffleboard game is described wherein an integrally molded plastic base is formed with a puck-sliding playing surface. The playing surface is separated by a divider into a pair of parallel alleys which meet at a fold region where a V-shaped rebounding device is located.
  • the rebounding device is formed with a pair of resilient cushions oriented to bounce pucks traveling along one forward alley from one cushion to the other cushion and then onto the other alley towards a scoring area.
  • the spacing of the rebounding device from the divider is selected commensurate with the length and width of the forward alley to assure that pucks reach the scoring area along a double bounce path for enhanced skillful scoring with the shuffleboard game.
  • a portable lightweight integrally molded base is formed with a smooth puck-sliding playing surface.
  • the playing surface is separated by a divider into a pair of generally parallel playing alleys which terminate in a fold region of the playing surface.
  • a V-shaped rebounding device is located in the fold region and is formed with a pair of rebounding cushion elements oriented to bounce an oncoming puck from one to the other and then to another alley.
  • the rebounding device is selectively spaced from an end of the divider to require each puck, which is advanced along one of the alleys, to bounce off both rebounding cushion elements before advancing towards a scoring area at the end of the other alley.
  • the "rebounding cushions are formed of stretched resilient bands which are mounted to provide resilient puck return over effectively the entire length of the bands exposed to the oncoming pucks.
  • the resilient bands are stretched over upright posts which are spaced in a V arrangement and provided with upright protruding edgeseffectively to eliminate non-resilient regions.
  • a pair 'of posts are located in the apex of the V arrangement and are so spaced as to locate their upright protruding edges close to one another. The close spacing of the upright protruding-edges assures that a puck which strikes near the apex, contacts only resilient regions of the cushions.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a portable lightboard shuffleboard game in accordancewith the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a partial top plan view'of a fold region and the rebounding device of the portable lightweight shuffleboard game as illustrated in FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 3 is a partial section view of the wall of the portable lightweight shuffleboard game taken along the line 3-3 in FIG. 2.
  • FIG. 4 is a perspective view of theportion of the portable lightweight shuffleboard game illustrated in. FIG. 2.
  • FIG. 1 a lightweight portable shuffleboard game 10 of the folded type is illustrated.
  • the game is formed of an integral molded plastic base 12 which is formed to include a smooth playing surface 14.
  • the playing surface 14 is separated by a divider wall 16 into a forward alley l8 and a rebounding alley 20.
  • the forward alley l8 and rebounding alley 20 meet at a fold region or transition portion 22 where pucks such as 24 are bounced between resilient cushions 26-26' of a V- shaped rebounding device 28 onto the rebounding alley 20 towards a scoring area 30.
  • the forward alley 18 is provided with a foul line 32 which sets off a starting area 33 within which players must release their pucks.
  • Foul line 32 is also referred to hereinafter as a predetermined line-position on the playing surface of the game.
  • the scoring area 30 is provided with scoring regions of different merit as indicated by the inscribed numerals.
  • a pit 34 is located adjacent the highest scoring area so that players who aim for the highest score also risk the loss of their puck when it overshoots the scoring area and drops into the pit 34.
  • the cushions 26-26' are formed of a pair of resilient rubber bands which are stretched in a V arrangement around upright posts 38-38 and 40-40.
  • the apex 42 of the V-shaped rebounding device 28 is located opposite the end 44 of the separating wall 16 with a spacing d between them selected to assure that a puck 24 which is released before the foul line 32, first bounces off cushion 26 and then off cushion 26'.
  • the spacing at is further selected commensurate with the width W of the forward alley 18 to assure the desired double-bounce return of the pucks. A player is thus prevented from delivering a puck on the scoring area 30 by aiming directly for the rebounding cushion element 26.
  • Posts 38-38 are respectively located in recesses 46-46 formed in side walls 48-48 of the base 12.
  • Posts 40-40 are mounted at the apex 42 to define a V- shaped arrangement with posts 38-38 and correspondingly to align the cushions 26-26 when these are stretched around the posts.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates a typical path 50 followed by a puck 24.
  • Cushion 26 in turn deflects the puck onto the rebounding alley 20 towards the scoring area 30 (see FIG. 1).
  • the cushions 26-26 are oriented generally at 45 angles relative to the alleys 18 and 20 and form an apex angle A of approximately
  • the lengths of the cushions 26-26 are further so selected that each one spans across the entire width W of alleys I8 and 20 respectively, thus assuring engagement of the pucks with cushions 26-26.
  • the top surfaces of side walls 48-48 of base 12 are further provided with scoring indicia such as 49 to enable slidably mounted score pointers 52-52 to be appropriately moved to indicate a players score.
  • the integrated molded design of the base 12 is advantageously suited to support the score pointers 52-52 as illustrated in FIG. 3.
  • the sidewall 48' of base 12 is formed of an inner upright wall 54 which is folded back upon itself to define an outer side 56 which terminates a short distance above the bottom support surface 58 of a support post 60.
  • the score pointer 52 includes a pointer edge 62 which extends from an upright bar 64 over the top surface of sidewall 48.
  • the bottom of score pointer 52 is formed of an open channel segment 66 which is sized to wrap around the bottom edge of outer side 56 and retain the score pointer 52' in a score indicating position while also enabling the score pointer 52' to be moved along the side wall 48' to indicate an appropriate score.
  • the views of the rebounding device 28 in FIG. 4, and 6 illustrate advantageous features obtained with the shaping of the posts 40-40.
  • the latter posts are each provided with a protruding upright lip 68 that extends generally transverse to the cushion portion that faces striking pucks 24.
  • the protruding lips 68 of posts 40 are further so oriented that they approach one another leaving a small space 70 between them to receive the stretched resilient band cushions 26.
  • This arrangement of the posts 40 together with their protruding lips 68 effectively extends the resilient effects of the cushions deep into the corner of the apex 42.
  • a puck 24, which strikes near the apex as shown in FIG. 6, still encounters resilient contact at the cushion contact regions 69 and 69.
  • the game may be conveniently set up on any suitable flat surface, and the double bounce path followed by the pucks enhances the skill and manual dexterity of the players.
  • a portable shuffleboard game utilizing pucks comprising, a portable lightweight molded base of Iongitudinal shape having a smooth longitudinally extending playing surface and a divider wall having a length less than said base and a termination end within said playing surface, said divider wall extending from one end of said base longitudinally along said playing surface to said termination end thereby to separate said playing surface into adjacent parallely extending forward and rebounding alleys communicating with each other over a transition portion of said playing surface adjacent said termination end of said divider wall to permit passage of pucks from one of said alleys to the other, a generally v-shaped resilient puck rebounding device located adjacent said transition portion of the playing surface opposite both said forward and rebounding alleys, said generally V-shaped puck rebounding device having first and second resilient leg portions respectively located opposite the forward and rebounding alleys and angularly related to one another to effectuate bouncing the puck travelling along the forward alley from one resilient cushion to the other resilient cushion and into the rebounding alley towards a scoring area on said playing
  • the base is provided with side walls bounding the forward and rebounding alleys respectively, said side walls being each provided with a recess respectively having the other post of each of said pair of posts in said resilient leg portions located therein, thereby to provide full resilient rebounding coverage across the width of said forward and rebounding alleys.
  • the base is formed with sidewalls bounding the alleys and which side walls are folded back upon themselves to extend downwardly and form generally fiat upper longitudinal score indicia retaining surfaces, the back folded portion of the side wall being terminated a slight distance above the normal seating surface of the base to define a longitudinal open space, and score pointer elements slidingly captured below the bottom edge of the back playing surface area having a plurality of spaces each of which defines a different scoring value.
  • said base includes a recess formed therein adjacent the end of said rebounding alley remote from said rebounding device to receive pucks projected from said rebounding device beyond said scoring area.
