Abstract
An amusement apparatus used in conjunction with projectiles thrown at the apparatus including a plurality of target orifices, projectile receiving containers and tubes connecting the orifices and the containers. Each container is slidably supported in the apparatus so it can be pulled out thereof and the projectiles therein can be counted. A catch pan is mounted below the containers and an ejection mechanism is provided for ejecting the projectiles from the containers and allowing them to fall by gravity into the catch pan for easy retrieval.
Claims10
An amusement apparatus used in conjunction with projectiles thrown toward the apparatus, the combination comprising:
- a substantially horizontal base wall;
- an upstanding wall coupled to said base wall;
- a plurality of target orifices located in said upstanding wall at which a plurality of projectiles are sequentially thrown;
- point value indicia associated with each of said target orifices;
- a plurality of projectile receiving means, located above said base wall and below said target orifices, for receiving the projectiles passing through said target orifices, each one of said plurality of receiving means being associated with at least one of said target orifices;
- channel means for selectively conducting projectiles passing through said target orifices from each of said target orifices into the receiving means associated therewith;
- and
- a plurality of drawer means, each for slidably supporting at least a part of one of said plurality of projectile receiving means between a first position wherein said part of said receiving means is on a first side of said upstanding wall and can receive a projectile from said channel means, and a second position wherein said part of said receiving means at least partially extends past the second side of said upstanding wall and projectiles therein are visible,
- each of said drawer means having point value indicia associated therewith corresponding to the point value indicia associated with the target orifice associated with the receiving means slidably supported thereby.
