  • Patent number: 7704118
    Abstract: Disclosed is a device for collecting and/or playing with circular and spherical objects. The device comprises: a base comprising an open top portion and a closed bottom portion; an open top main body comprising a rim portion, and a circular portion extending downwardly and inwardly from the rim portion to an aperture concentric with the rim portion and coupling with the open top portion of the base; a flange extending horizontally and outwardly about the rim portion; and at least one launching ramp mounted on the flange. Due to the mounting of the launching ramps on the flange the device is capable of accommodating the launching ramps outside the rim portion, that is, outside the outer circumference of the circular portion. Such an accommodation of the launching ramps provides the entire surface of the circular portion as a rolling surface for the circular and spherical objects.

  • Patent number: 4762512
    Abstract: A device for collecting and playing with coins or the like includes a base in the form of an upward and inward sloping hollow pedestal having a generally flat bottom and a circular upper end concentric with and of substantially lesser cross-sectional area than the bottom. An open top main body, having a vertically extending circular upper rim and a circular downwardly and inwardly formed surface portion, extends from said rim to a lower aperture concentric with the rim and merging with the upper end of the pedestal, whereby the main body is supported on the pedestal along a common vertical centerline. A launching ramp is removably mounted on the rim and curves upward and inward over the main body toward the vertical centerline. The ramp has a downwardly and outwardly formed guiding surface arranged to cause disc-like objects placed thereon to roll onto the surface of the main body inside the rim and through a helical path of decreasing radius through the aperture and into the base.
