IMPROVEMENT IN TOY-TARGETS.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making parte! the same.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE F. FEssENDEN, of Arlington, in the county of Middlesex, and State of Massachsetts, have invented an Improved Toy-Target; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and ex. act description thereof, reference being had to the annexed drawings, and the letters of reference marked thereon.
This invention relates to the construction of a toytarget, in which a small ball is combined with a miniature target, by meansV of an elastic line or cord, one end of the elastic being attached to or relatively to the target, and the opposite end of the elastic carrying the ball, so that if the ball be drawn back by stretching the elastic, it will, when. released, be driven against the target, the target being held in proper position for this purpose. The target shown at Figure 1 of the drawings, and
Figure 2 represents an edge View of it.
I prefer to make itof a circular piece of wood, a, having an elongation on one side to form a handle, b, by which to hold the target in the hand, and having through the centre a hole, c, forming the bulls-eye to be shot at.
Upon the back side of the target a flap, d, may be tacked or hinged, so as to cover the "hole, but so as to be capable of movement therefrom, to allow the ball to go through.
e is the ball attached to one end of the elastic, f,
,1 Whose other end is fastened to the target, or, preferably, to the ap d, in line with the centre of 'hole c.
The elastic is a piece of common string-rubber, having suicient elasticityY to allow the ball to be drawn well back from` the target, so as to .obtain a pretty long range and sufficient contractile power to impel the ball with force against the target in a straight line.
The ball is intended to be shot through the bullseye,.for which purpose the target is held in one hand7 as seen in the drawing, the. ball being then grasped by the fingers of the other hand, as also seen in the drawing. Being (hawn back until thelelastio is suiliciently stretched, the ball is then released, the ball and target being so held as to endeavor to `send the ball through the hole when released from the lingers, the ball, in passing through the eye, displacing the yflap and falling behind the target.
The flap may be dispensed with and the elastic attached directly to the wood, and there may be a series of holes like the centrehole, through either of which Witnesses E. L. PRATT, O. WARREN BROWN.
GEORGE F. FESSENDEN,
