Abstract: A baseball game board includes: a top plate; a pitching section including a ball container section and a discharge hole; a batting section; a pitching operation section; and a pitching lever extending from the pitching operation section to the pitching section and movable in forward and rearward directions. The pitching lever is disposed below the top plate, is rotatable in a left-right direction around a position between the pitching operation section and the pitching section, and includes a ball holding section provided at a front end of the pitching lever for receiving a ball dropping from the ball container section. When the pitching lever is moved forward, the ball held in the ball holding section and positioned below the top plate is delivered from the discharge hole to an upper surface of the top plate, thereby being discharged toward the batting section.

Abstract: A driving apparatus for retaining frame of object-to-be-sewed in automatic sewing machine with driving shaft for causing the retaining frame on an object-to-be-sewed to move in the X-axis direction or the Y-axis direction relative to the position of a sewing needle to perform an optional sewing operation. A pulse generator for moving the retaining frame is provided for generating a given number of pulses, between given rotation angles of the driving shaft, in a synchronous relationship with the rotation of the operational shaft, so that the retaining frame of the object-to-be-sewed is moved in an automatic synchronous relationship with respect to the movement of the sewing needle.

Abstract: For an automatic stitching apparatus of a type comprising at least one sewing machine having a stitching needle operable to perform a stitching operation to form an embroidery pattern on a fabric supported on an embroidery frame, a frame positioning device includes a holder for holding the frame in position relative to the stitching needle, X-axis and Y-axis drive mechanisms each including pulse responsive stepping motors mechanically connected to each other to provide an X-axis or Y-axis output drive necessary to move the frame in a predetermined direction to a given coordinate position, and first and second linkage mechanisms for transmitting the X-axis and Y-axis drives, respectively, to the frame holder. The stepping motor for each drive mechanism is connected in such a manner that the associated rotors are angularly offset from each other with respect to the axis of rotation of the rotors.
