Reprojector apparatus for pinball machines

An apparatus for a pinball machine comprising an inclined playing surface adapted to have a ball roll thereon in a first linear direction, a support member positioned entirely below said playing surface, at least a pair of ball receiving members positioned entirely below said playing surface and pivoted on said support member for coplanar pivotal movement, said ball receiving members being in substantial alignment in said first linear direction, actuating means connecting said ball receiving members for moving said ball receiving members in unison in a first arcuate direction opposite said first linear direction, circuit means supported below said playing surface and operable in response to movement of said ball receiving members in unison in a second arcuate direction opposite said first arcuate direction to actuate said actuating means, and a ball receiving aperture in said playing surface associated with each said ball receiving member, said ball receiving members and said associated ball receiving apertures being spaced a distance such that actuation of said actuating means may cause a ball projected from one of said ball receiving members to be thrown so as to traverse said playing surface and be received in the other of said aligned ball receiving members, each said ball receiving member comprising an arm pivoted at one end to said support member and a cup at the other end of said arm into which said ball is adapted to fall through said ball receiving aperture.
