Patent number: 9126093Abstract: A system and method for a retractable tennis court shade device is disclosed. The device is constructed such that it does not substantially impair the play of the game on the tennis court that is being shaded. The device can be constructed substantially along existing fencing structures to surround the entire tennis court, or it can be constructed so that it is parallel to any of the sidelines or baselines or combinations thereof. Alternatively, the device can be constructed such that it is freestanding. The device comprises a frame supported by a plurality of support columns, wherein the frame is disposed at an angle extending inward from the edge of the support columns toward the tennis court while stopping short of completely covering the play area above the tennis court. A plurality of fabric shade panels are retractably attached to the frame, which fabric shade panels filter substantially all of the light and/or UV radiation from the sun.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2013Date of Patent: September 8, 2015Assignee: ATLANTIC RECREATION, INC, ;Inventor: Christopher L.

Patent number: 5382009Abstract: A portable hinged cutting board with drawer for recreational use, such as the popular picnic, is presented having a housing 10 with a folding extension 11 attached by a hinge means 12 to the top edge along the length of the housing 10. The folding extension 11 corresponds in length and width with top of the housing thereby when folded in a closed position it is adjacent to the upper surface of the housing top 10a. The housing 10 can generally be described as having a rectangular top 10a two short sides 10b one long side 10c thereby forming a compartment 10e. A drawer 13 fits snugly into the compartment 10e and is of such a width that when positioned inside as in the closed position the outer wall 13a of the drawer 13 is flush with the edges of the housing 10.

Patent number: 3997162Abstract: The dart board game includes a dart, a target board having a target face, and cooperating elements for retaining, on the target face, a removably mounted marker on the dart. Such cooperating elements can consist of cooperating "Velcro" strip material. The dart includes a resilient and flexible portion at which the dart body is removably engaged with the marker, so that upon impact of the dart against the target board, the resilient portion of the dart flexes to allow the Velcro strip to engage without disengagement due to bouncing. This flexing motion compresses the resilient portion, which, as it expands, propels the dart body away from the target board to disengage the dart from the marker. In playing one embodiment of the game, in order for the "score" of a marker to count, the player throwing the dart must catch the rebounding dart body after an impact on the target board.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 1975Date of Patent: December 14, 1976Assignee: Crown Recreation, Inc.Inventor: Francis E.
