Abstract: A target game made up of a track on an inclined support, a gun which can be aimed at cars running down the track, an impactor under the support which, when the gun is properly aimed in elevation and azimuth, will engage one of several rods, which are connected to bell cranks which will move blades upward through the support to engage a car and knock it off the track, if the trigger is pulled at the proper time.

Abstract: A pedal car having a body with a seat and a steering wheel and rear wheels supported on an axle. Ring gear sectors are supported on the car and connected to two pedals which the rider can oscillate. Two spaced pinions on the axle engage the ring gear at diametrically opposite parts and two one-way clutches connect the axle to the pinions so that the ring gear drives the axle forward when it is oscillated in one direction by pedals and drives the axle forward again. When the ring gear is oscillated in the opposite direction by the other pedal, the axle is rotated again in the same direction.

Abstract: A toy car adapted to caper about, having a seat, a backrest and large wheels with inwardly-extending handles supported on the wheel rims. The wheels are supported on the ends of arms which are supported just to the rear of the seat and the ground-engaging bumper attached to the front of the vehicle supports the front of the car when it is occupied and tips forward.

Abstract: A toy having a body and a downwardly-extending rear frame movably supported on the body with a spring on the frame to urge the body upwardly, an axle supported on the lower end of the frame and wheels attached to the axle. The axle has a one-way clutch attached to it and the clutch is connected to the body by a cord. As the body moves downwardly, stressing the spring, the clutch is free-wheeled in a first direction and, when the spring forces the body upward, the cord rotates the clutch rotating the axle and, with it the wheels.

Abstract: A game is provided which combines the elements of chance and coordinative skills. An elevated gaming surface is provided. Cooperatively mounted in the lowest end of the gaming surface is a game piece launcher. The game piece is a marble, steel ball or the like. The launcher includes a spring biased projector and a launch pad which is elevated and helical. On the upward end of the gaming surface are a plurality of annular concentric rings including scoring means for computing the score given to a launched game piece. Covering the gaming surface is a rigid transparent cover having an underside of predetermined configuration for cooperating with a projected ball and thereby guiding the projected ball in relation to the scoring indicia provided on the gaming surface. Tilting of the game surface causes return of the game piece or pieces to the starting position after computation of the score.

Abstract: A game device is provided which has a high degree of sustained recreational and entertainment value. The game includes a housing fitted with a removable screen. The screen includes indicia which simulate a field of play, for instance a tennis court, hockey field, soccer field or the like. Screens with different fields of play may be interchangeably mounted on the housing. A boom is mounted in the housing for universal movement in a plan substantially parallel to the screen. A signal means is mounted in the universally movable end of the boom for projecting a signal on the screen simulating a play action game piece, for instance, a tennis ball or hockey puck in play on the simulated field. The signal end of the boom is reciprocable with the housing across the screen. Deflectors are movably mounted in the housing for buffeting the signal end of the boom across the screen at random verticals to the reciprocal horizontal.

Abstract: A riding toy made up of a hollow simulated horse body having a generally inverted U-shaped axle suspension member supported at its rear end with wheels on the legs of the inverted U-shaped suspension member and a front wheel with handle bar attached to the horse's head.

Abstract: A target game is disclosed in the form of a box with the front wall made of a resilient clear plastic. The box may contain various rotating and spinning targets located toward the rear wall of the box. A single pellet normally rolls forward down the inclined bottom and rests on the bottom at the center of the front wall. The pellet can be picked up by a wand or lever which protrudes through the top of the box in such a way that the operator can grasp the upper end of the handle of the wand, pick up the pellet and move it to the inner face of the clear plastic wall into line with the target. The muzzle of a small pistol or other impacting means can be placed against the clear plastic opposite the pellet to deliver a sharp blow to the front of the plastic wall, propelling the pellet toward the target.
