  • Publication number: 20160082334
    Abstract: A bag toss game set comprising a flat game board with collapsible support structure affixed thereto. Angular support wings, secured longitudinally to the flat game board with an extended piano hinge, collapsed by rotating about the piano hinge to lay flat under the flat game board. A frame is provided around the periphery of the flat game board that rigidities and protects the sides of the game board. The flat game board has provisions for storing the game bags there in during transport. The flat game board maybe carried from the top or the bottom, under the arm, during transport, with hand slots formed bilaterally on the wings that allow engagement and wrapping around by a user's hand and fingers.

  • Patent number: 5330285
    Abstract: A tire-puncturing apparatus is disclosed which can be placed on a road surface in front of a moving vehicle such as an automobile. The apparatus has a collapsible outer cover which makes it safe to handle the apparatus before its use, yet being collapsible, does not impede the operation of the apparatus in puncturing the tires of the target moving vehicle. A special three-piece spike is used to first penetrate the tire's surface and then embed a hollow quill in the tread of the tire such that the tire will deflate at a controlled rate, rather than causing a blowout and subsequent loss of control of the vehicle. The tire-puncturing apparatus is designed to be easily carried in the trunk of a police vehicle, and has an optional mating connector such that two or more of the tire-puncturing devices can be rigidly connected together to cover a larger portion of the road surface.
