Abstract
A toss game assembly includes a target, a projectile, an impact-responsive element, and a collector. The target has a play surface. The projectile is designed to be tossed onto the play surface. The impact-responsive element is coupled to the target and positioned on the play surface. The impact-responsive element includes a pyrotechnic material that is designed to produce a pyrotechnic effect when the impact-responsive element is struck by the projectile. The collector is coupled to the target. The collector is designed to collect the projectile moving along the play surface after being tossed for retrieval and reuse.
Claims17
A toss game assembly comprising:
- a target, the target having a play surface;
- a projectile, the projectile being configured to be tossed onto the play surface;
- an impact-responsive element, the impact-responsive element being coupled to the target and positioned on the play surface, the impact-responsive element including a pyrotechnic material being configured to produce a pyrotechnic effect when the impact-responsive element is struck by the projectile;
- a collector, the collector being coupled to the target, the collector being configured to collect the projectile moving along the play surface after being tossed for retrieval and reuse;
- wherein the impact-responsive element includes a strike plate;
- and
- wherein the pyrotechnic material is placed under the strike plate such that when the strike plate is struck by the projectile the pyrotechnic material is triggered to produce the pyrotechnic effect.
A toss game assembly comprising:
- a target, the target having a play surface;
- a projectile, the projectile being configured to be tossed onto the play surface;
- an impact-responsive element, the impact-responsive element being coupled to the target and positioned on the play surface, the impact-responsive element including a pyrotechnic material being configured to produce a pyrotechnic effect when the impact-responsive element is struck by the projectile, wherein the pyrotechnic material is configured to produce a sound and a flame when triggered, wherein the pyrotechnic material includes an impact-responsive novelty pyrotechnic and a nitrocellulose paper positioned immediately adjacent the impact-responsive novelty pyrotechnic;
- a collector, the collector being coupled to the target, the collector being configured to collect the projectile moving along the play surface after being tossed for retrieval and reuse;
- and
- wherein the nitrocellulose paper is folded over and sealed at the edges to form a packet with the impact-responsive novelty pyrotechnic container therein.
A toss game assembly comprising:
- a target, the target having a play surface;
- a projectile, the projectile being configured to be tossed onto the play surface;
- an impact-responsive element, the impact-responsive element being coupled to the target and positioned on the play surface, the impact-responsive element including a pyrotechnic material being configured to produce a pyrotechnic effect when the impact-responsive element is struck by the projectile;
- a collector, the collector being coupled to the target, the collector being configured to collect the projectile moving along the play surface after being tossed for retrieval and reuse;
- wherein the collector includes a guide projecting from the play surface;
- and
- wherein the guide is configured to direct the movement of the projectile moving along the play surface.
