The chair includes: (i) a seat; (ii) a base; (iii) a plurality of framing members; (iv) a joystick; (v) a launching member; (vi) a nozzle; (vii) a set of motorized wheels; (viii) a directional wheel; (ix) an emergency stop button; and (x) a plurality of detachment devices to easily and quickly dismantle the chair into easily transportable parts. The base encloses a motor, a battery, a set of wheels and a water tank. The joysticks are configured to control the movement of the chair. The launching member can shoot a plurality of balls. The nozzles are configured to spray water from the water tank. The set of motorized wheels and the directional wheel are configured to move and rotate the chair, respectively. The emergency stop button is configured to stop the chair from moving.
Abstract: The invention concerns a gaming device (1) to throw and catch a ball or a shuttlecock comprising a basket (20) structured around two rigid walls (21, 23) and elastic means (22, 24) for throwing the ball or the shuttlecock with a certain velocity by stretching the gaming device (1), while making it easier to catch the projectile in the structured basket (20) when the gaming device (1) is in resting position.
Abstract: A toy assembly that includes a bat structure and balls. The bat structure can be used to bat a ball like a traditional baseball bat. The bat structure can also be loaded with a ball, wherein the bat structure can launch the ball pneumatically. The bat structure has a cylindrical section. A piston head is disposed within the cylindrical section. A ball retention ring is coupled to the end of the cylindrical section. A tapered section of the bat structure is coupled to the opposite end of the cylindrical section. A handle is attached to the tapered section using a mechanical connector. A piston rod is coupled to both the handle and the piston head. A ball is set into the ball retaining ring. The piston head can then be advanced within the bat structure. This creates high pressure that eventually launches the ball.
Abstract: Play and sport device in which a flying object can be both lobbed and caught one-handed thanks to a specially constructed diaphragm which is tautened and fastened to the device. The invention can be used both by one player juggling, wall rebounding, hitting a target) and by two players, as a group or in teams.
Abstract: The invention is a toy for performing a game of pitch and catch. The toy comprises a pair of rackets for propelling and catching a projectile. Each racket includes a rim for supporting a net between its inner periphery and a hook on its outer periphery. The projectile includes a generally circular member and an elastic band. The band is connected with the hook for propelling the projectile. The racket is positioned to catch the propelled projectile in the net.
Abstract: An object throwing and catching apparatus includes a flexible web having a first tubular end, a second tubular end, a first side edge, a second side edge, a pair of handles for inserting into the first and second tubular edges, and two pieces of an elongate, stretchable component, one attached to the first side edge and another attached to the second side edge.
Abstract: Game apparatus for tossing and catching a ball includes a sling having a generally rectangular web suspended between a pair of rigid handles. A cord loop runs slidingly through each tubular handle such that when the handles are parallel and drawn apart from one another to the maximum distance the cord loop's length will allow, parallel, first and second taut cord portions run between the first ends of the handles and between the second ends of the handles, respectively. The web is constructed of either foraminous or nonforaminous fabric, and includes hemmed, parallel side edges constructed as tubes through which the parallel cord portions easily slide. A ball approximately the same size and weight as a regulation baseball is used with the embodiment having the nonforaminous web, and a lower-density, sponge rubber ball is used with the foraminous web. The elements described are also presented as a kit for selective use of either web with its respective preferred ball.
