Filed Sept. 23, 1958, Ser. No. 762,883 8 Claims. (Cl. 273-1051) This invention relates to a game apparatus which, in addition to its amusement value, also provides a cathartic means of expression for children watching television programs by enabling the child to shoot darts at the characters appearing on the television screen.
Target shooting games are preferred when they provide target subjects which are moving rather than stationary. However, mechanical arrangements for providing moving target subjects are invariably complicated and expensive so as to limit their use primarily to cornmercial shooting galleries and coin-operated games and generally to preclude moving-subject or animated targets in relatively inexpensive games for home use by children. The present invention obviates this problem by an arrangement which utilizes the light images appearing on a television screen as the moving target subjects, the televised light images being transmitted to the player through the target which is in the form of a blank transparent sheet mounted in front of the viewing screen.
Furthermore, since the advent of commercial television, its possible adverse psychological atect upon children has been a major concern in view of the enormous extent to which television has corne to pervade and dominate the childs perception of his environment. It is frequently held that television programs can be harmful to the child in that they stimulate the childs psychic energy to highly intense emotional levels, which energy the child cannot effectively discharge because of lack of any acceptable effective means of expression and release such as are available to the adult.
Also a cause of serious co-ncern is the fact that commercial television programs result in habitual passive observance wherein the child does nothing but sit and View, usually for hours, without any active participation in the apparent environment as it appears on the television screen. This may develop in the child a tendency to passivity in relating to the environment, rather than the more healthy pattern of active participation. Of course, the lethargy and lack of physical exercise are additional detrimental aspects of this passivity.
The present invention attempts to obviate these harmful aspects of television by enabling the child to express his aggressions and other emotional states and to participate actively in the television program by shooting harmless darts at the characters, personalities and other images appearing on the television screen.
The apparatus of the present invention comprises, in its preferred embodiment disclosed herein, a blank transparent target having means for removably mounting it to a television set immediately in front of the viewing screen. A dart or projectile is provided with means for adhering to the target upon striking the latter, and the subject invention further comprises a gun for shooting thedart at the target.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will appear as the detailed description proceeds or are inherent in the structure as disclosed in the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. l is a side elevational view of the invention with portions of the television set broken away and shown in section;
FIG. 2 is a front elevational veiw of the blank transparent target; and
FIG. 3 is a vertical sectional view taken on line 3-3 of FIG. 2 and showing means for mounting suction cups to the target.
Referring first to FIG. l, the reference numeral 11 designates a television set of any conventional or suitable type and comprising a side wall 12 partially broken away to show the picture tube 13 having a viewing screen 14 at the front end thereof. A convex transparent shield 15 of glass or plastic is usually mounted' in front of screen 14 by means of a conventional mounting frame comprising upper frame elements 16, 17 and lower frame elements 18, 19 in addition to similar side frame elements not shown. These frame elements outline a picture area which term is used herein to define that portion of the front surface of the television set wherein the image is displayed. In the event the set does not have a shield such as at 15, the term picture area refers to the area of the screen as outlined by the usual screen mask.
The combination of the present invention further comprises a dart gun 2u, one or more darts 21, 22 adapted to be shot or propelled by the gun 20, and a target 23. Gun 20 may be of any conventional or suitable construction and the details thereof will not be described because they are not pertinent to the present invention, it being merely necessary to note that upon' actuation of trigger 24, the gun 20 will propel a dart' 211 or 22 in the usual manner. Darts 21, 22 are also conventional and are provided at their forward ends with the usual suction cup 25 adapted to adhere to a planar surface when the darts 21, 22 strike thereagainst.
As shown in FIG. 3,'each of the suction cups 26 is preferably formed of rubber'and is molded with a metal insert 27 having a retaining shoulder Z formed integral with an elongated internally-threaded shank 29. A bolt 30 extends through a suitable opening 31 provided in target 23 and has a threaded shaft 32 in engagement with the internally threaded bore of shank 29 so as to retain each of the four suction cups 26 securely attached to the rear surface 23a of target 23. It will be apparent that target 2T may be quickly and easily mounted to its operative position in front of viewing screen 14 by pressing suction cups 26 against shield 15.
When television set 11 has been turned on and tuned to a particular channel and target 23 is located in front of viewing screen 14, the light images depicting the characters, personalities and other objects appearing on screen 14 are seen through blank transparent target 23 Patented Dec. 26, 1961 by the child or other viewer so as to make it appear that target 23 is provided with animated or moving target subjects. The child loads gun 20 with one of the darts 21, 22 and aims gun 20 at one of the target subjects appearing on target 23. Actuation of trigger 24 causes propulsion of the dart in the usual manner and upon striking target 23 the dart will stick thereto as shown at 22 in FIG. 1, thereby indicating whether the desired target subject has been hit.
It should be understood that the specific embodiment shown in the drawings and described above is merely illustrative of one of the many forms which the invention may take in practice and that numerous variations may be devised without departing from the scope of the invention as delineated in the appended claims which are to be construed as broadly as permitted by the prior art.
