Hand-held electronic game devices employing push buttons and other controls to manipulate game play and action on electronic displays, e.g., Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) or Light Emitting Diode (LED) display devices. The game devices have unique elongated, tubular forms in the shape of a stick. The electronic displays are integral with the unique tubular forms and generally centrally mounted therein. Various types of controls are employed at either or both ends of the game devices including, e.g., push buttons, pull switches, spring-loaded balls, flip switches, mouse controls, pointer balls, lever arms, or the like. Game concepts and operations are utilized based upon the particular control mechanisms employed as well as the unique physical shape and appearance of the devices.

Hand-held electronic game housing

A trainer tee and guide assembly that creates a target zone leading a bat swung by a player toward a ball placed at a fixed elevated position above ground. The acceptance angle of the target zone is adjustable to accommodate different angles of swing as the player gains greater skill in the course of training. The assembly includes a U-shaped frame having upper and lower horizontal branches whose free ends terminate in vertically-separated blocks between which the ball is placed, the frame being raised to place the ball at a level appropriate to the height of the player. Pivoted on the blocks are upper and lower guide arms which extend laterally to the left or right of the blocks to define a target zone whose angle of acceptance depends on the angular orientation of the arms. The arms are angularly adjustable to vary the acceptance angle in a range going from a low skill angle in which the arms diverge in opposite directions about 45 degrees from the horizontal to accommodate large angle swings of the bat, to a high skill angle in which the arms are nearly parallel to each other to accommodate a level swing of the bat affording maximum power.

An automatic ball projection machine comprising a housing section that encloses a receiving section, a chute section, an ejection section, and a power section, while supporting a catching section, wherein a plurality of balls are loaded into the housing section through an inlet aperture, delayed in the receiving section, engaged and propelled by the ejection section, and adjustably directed out the chute section through an outlet aperture at a force sufficient for hitting or catching. Balls are thrown back at the apparatus into the catching section, which entraps and guides the balls into the inlet aperture for recycling.

Hand held electronic game housing

A game for a number of players that includes a device for displaying one or more cards for a limited amount of time, with all of the cards initially being displayed. Each of the initially displayed cards drops into a housing after a limited amount of time which, in the preferred embodiment, is a different amount of time for each of the displayed cards. Players take turns trying to convey the words on the displayed cards to teammates using nonverbal communication and grab the cards before they drop into the housing.

Toy vehicle wheels are each mounted on an axle having a gear with each of the wheels having a pair of diametrically opposed arcuate segments. Each of the arcuate segments includes an inwardly extending member with each member including a rack that is kept in engagement with an opposed toothed side of the gear. A coiled spring biases the two opposed arcuate segments toward each other. With a motor driving the axle in one direction, the wheel is initially rotated with the opposed arcuate segments in a first position proximate each other until the wheel encounters an impediment that stalls rotation of the wheel so that continued rotation of the axle in one direction drives the segments away from each other. For enhancing the visual effect of the arcuate segments being moved away from each other, edges of the arcuate segments are provided with projecting parts that are obscured when the arcuate segments are in the first position proximate each other.

A toy animal having a body, at least two disproportionately long, supple legs extending downwardly from the body and at least one additional appendage extending downwardly therefrom. Each leg has a pad-like foot, which is weighted by a mass of polyethylene beads so as to cause such leg to dangle downwardly when the toy animal is held above an underlying surface. Although the legs lend a lanky appearance to the toy animal, the legs and the additional appendage or appendages extending downwardly from the body have sufficient columnar strength to support the toy animal and to resist collapsing when the toy animal is rested on a horizontal surface.

A toy vehicle and a handheld pneumatic launcher combination includes a piston and an elongated hollow cylinder with a flange adjacent one end of the cylinder providing grips for a child which simulate an airplane control yoke. While supporting lateral extensions of the flange with the fingers of each hand, the child's thumbs are free to press upon an actuator at one end of the piston forcing the piston head into the cylinder. Attached at the other end of the elongated cylinder, in pneumatic communication with the cylinder, is a launch tube that fits into a socket adjacent the bottom of a toy vehicle that is made predominantly of a lightweight plastic foam. The axis of the launch tube is preferably offset from the axis of the cylinder. In addition, the launch tube is tapered and has a closed end with perforations through the sidewalls of the tube adjacent the closed end.
