Application filed March 23,1929. Serial No. 349,355.
This invention relates to amusement ma chines and it has for its primary object to provide a novel machine of the shooting gallery type provided with movable and stationary targets and one ormore coin operated pistols combined and arranged in a port-' able machine adapted to be displayed in public and other places and tofurnish entertainment and amusement to the general public.
Another object of the invention is to provide two oppositely movable carriers having targets mounted thereon and provided with means for maintaining the carriers taut while they are passing across the shooting range. 7
Another object of the invention is to pro vide a plurality of movable targets pivotally mounted to fall'over when struck and means for automatically restoring the down and orderly manner whether or not any of the targets are struck byballs. 7
And a further object of. the invention is to construct and arrange the movable and other parts and mechanisms of the machine 3 so that the balls will not be obstructed thereby and will not interfere with the operation thereof and also to providemeans for quickly returning the balls to the pistols and without interfering with the operation thereof. In the accompanying drawings illustrating a selected embodiment of the invention,

.is formed by an inclined plate 7 which is suit- Referring .to the drawings the invention comjprises a cabinet, 1 having in the upper part thereof a glass front 2 for one or more ranges, two being shown in the drawings separated by a glass partition 3. There is a door t at the back of the cabinet to permit access to the interior thereof and one or more lights at the top of the cabinet, and at the rear thereof, with a barrier 6 depending from the top of the cabinet in front of the lights to hide the lights from the spectators. This arrangement of the lights and the barrier gives the efiect of indirect lighting upon the targets beneath the lights. The bottom of. the ranges 5 ably supported in the cabinet above the operating mechanism and adjoins at the rear a more sharply inclined support 8 which extends transverselyof the cabinet and is provided with groove trackways or tracks 9, 10 for the belts 9, 10' which carry the movable targets 9", 10. For convenience the targets 9 are made in the shape of animals and the targets 10 are made in the shape of birds. Each movable target consists of a relatively thin plate bent laterally at the bottom to form a base 11 which is pivoted at 11 to a clamp 12 on the belt, Fig. 8. This clamp is shaped to embrace the bottoml of the belt, the side edges and portionsof the top adj acent said side edges and it is bent'upward centrally at 12 through the belt and shaped to form an eye for the pivot 11". The belt 9 travels on pulleys 13 and the belt 10 travels on pulleys 14, Fig. 9,these pulleys being mount- I ed in the cabinet sothat the belt 9 and its targets 9 willtravel across the pistol ranges ina higher plane than the belt 10 and its tar and guide bars 19 may be provided between.
the partitions adjacent the path of travel of the movable targets tomaintain them in perpendicular position so far as they may be necessary. Diverging guides 20 are provided at the entrance of the openings 16 to insure that the targets will enter the openings in upright position so that they may pass free-.
ly therethrough. Power from an electric motor 21 in the lower part of the cabinet is transmitted through a shaft 22, aworm 23 and a worm gear 24 to a drive shaft 25 mounted in the cabinet. A drive chain 26 operates on a sprocket wheel *27 on shaft 25 and on a sprocket wheel 28 on the shaft'lt' which carries the pulleys 14 at the right Fig. 9. A gear 29 on shaft 14 drives a gear 30 on shaft 81 which carries the pulley 13. Thus the belt 9 is caused to travel through the pistol ranges from left to right, Fig. 9, and the belt 10" is caused by the same mechanism to travel through the pistol ranges from right to left, Fig. 9. The belt 9- will be pulled on 1ts travel through the ranges and'therefore will have no slack in the-pistol ranges, but this mechanism will push the belt 10 on its travel through the ranges and there may be slack in the belt which would obstruct the return of the balls to the pistols and might cause damage to the mechanism. Therefore I provide a chain 32 which travels on a sprocket 33 on shaft 25 and on a sprocket 34: on shaft 84 which carries the pulley 14: at the left Fig. 9. Thus the belt 10 is pulled through the ranges which will eliminate any slack that might be .caused by the mechanism at the right, Fig. 9.
tending to push this belt through the ranges.
An automatic coin operated spring pistol 35 of any suitable description is pivotally mounted at 36 and 37 in the front of the cabinet to swing vertically and laterally. The pistol is capable of adjustment within the range to aim at any of the targetsand the muzzle of the pistol projects into the cabinet and above the plate 7. This plate is dished at the front and providedwith an opening 38 to discharge the balls which travel down the inclined'plate into a tray 39, Figs. 5, 7 whichis mounted on the pistol and is suffioiently elongated to receive the balls in any position of the pistol. The bottom of this tray inclines to a depression 40 to receive the balls. A tubular member 41 connects the tray with the body of the pistol and the balls roll through this member into the magazine of the pistol. More balls are provided than the magazine of the pistolwill hold to prothese guides and thereby be uprighted before they enter the openings 16. A stationary target 43 is mounted on each partition 15 and is provided with an opening 43 in front of a bell 44 also mounted on the partition15, Fig.4. These targetsare in range of the pistols and if a ball passes into the opening 43 it will strike the bell and produce an audible sound. The coinmechanism of the pistol dischargesthe coin into a receptacle foreachpistol formedin the bottom of the cabinet by the transverse partition 45 and the longitudinal; partition 46, anddoors 47 in the front of the cabinet give access} to these coin receptacles.
' My invention provides a portable machine of simple construction which is adapted to furnish entertainment-and amusement to operators, with the movable targets in continuous operation. The drawings show the machine equipped with two pistol ranges which is desirable for simultaneous competitive shooting but the. invention may be embodied in a single range machine or in a machine having more than two ranges. The pistol is mounted to swing vertically and: horizontally and it can be readily moved for aiming. The tray 39 is mounted on the pistol and moves therewith, and it is of a size and shape to register with the opening 38' in. all positions of the pistol. The adjusting screw. 35.
prevents the pistol from being aimed too loW and a spring 39. on the pistol holds the tray 39 up in position to-receive balls through the opening-38. I
