  • Patent number: 4014543
    Abstract: An indoor game comparable in objective to the sport of soccer. A ball or other playing piece is propelled by air streams discharged from opposed nozzles horizontally from above each goal, the latter being in the form of a recess on a game table top. The nozzles are swiveled so that each air stream may be played horizontally across the entire top surface of the table. A plurality of freely rotatable vertical baffles is disposed on the upper surface of the table top to provide air-spinnable ball obstacles, comparable to real life soccer players, that, on occasion, trap the playing piece and thereafter fling the piece across the table top in a semi-predictable, semi-random course.

  • Patent number: 4009831
    Abstract: An apparatus is provided which is adapted to be connected in communication with a single stream of water and which is constructed and arranged to divide the single stream of water into a plurality of streams of water. The apparatus defines a fluid stream through a fluid chamber into a mixing chamber and forms the plurality of streams by directing the water through a foraminous nozzle member. The apparatus also includes an additive chamber adapted to contain an additive and includes provision for mixing some of the water with the additive in the additive chamber and supplying the mixture of additive and water to the mixing chamber for formation, along with the plain water, into a plurality of streams of water through the foraminous nozzle, each containing the same amount of additive. The apparatus includes means for selectively controlling the introduction of water mixed with additive into the mixing chamber through rotation of the foraminous nozzle between normal and additive-blocking positions.
