Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
212 words
A simulated bombing playing machine comprising semitransparent map belt having the lay of the land depicted thereon, a reflector for displaying a virtual image of said map belt so as to be seen from a player, a driving mechanism for moving said map belt in the direction of approaching to said reflector, a control handle or a control stick, and control means responsive to a motion of said control handle or stick for rotating said reflector; characterized in that said machine further comprises a trigger button switch, a trajectory reflector disposed on the player''s side of said first reflector, a trajectory displaying light source located at such portion that upon closing said trigger button switch the player may look at its virtual image via said trajectory reflector as moving from the player''s side to far away, a plurality of firing light sources positioned on the back side of said map belt so that one of them may fire to flash at a point where said virtual image of the trajectory crosses with said virtual image of the lay of the land, a target depicted on said map belt, and hit detector means for detecting whether or not said virtual image of the trajectory has crossed with the virtual image of said target.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
212 words
A simulated bombing playing machine comprising semitransparent map belt having the lay of the land depicted thereon, a reflector for displaying a virtual image of said map belt so as to be seen from a player, a driving mechanism for moving said map belt in the direction of approaching to said reflector, a control handle or a control stick, and control means responsive to a motion of said control handle or stick for rotating said reflector; characterized in that said machine further comprises a trigger button switch, a trajectory reflector disposed on the player''s side of said first reflector, a trajectory displaying light source located at such portion that upon closing said trigger button switch the player may look at its virtual image via said trajectory reflector as moving from the player''s side to far away, a plurality of firing light sources positioned on the back side of said map belt so that one of them may fire to flash at a point where said virtual image of the trajectory crosses with said virtual image of the lay of the land, a target depicted on said map belt, and hit detector means for detecting whether or not said virtual image of the trajectory has crossed with the virtual image of said target.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
25 words
A simulated bombing playing machine as claimed in claim 1 further characterized in that said trajectory displaying light sources are arranged in a V-shaped configuration.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
117 words
A simulated bombing playing machine as claimed in claim 1, further characterized in that said machine comprises hit detector means for detecting whether or not said virtual image of the trajectory crosses with the virtual image of said target, firing timing detector means for detecting the timing when said virtual image of the trajectory crosses with the virtual image of said lay of the land, firing point detecting means responsive to the motion of said control handle or control stick for detecting the location where said virtual image of the trajectory crosses with said virtual image of the lay of the land, and target detector means for detecting the location of the target on said map belt.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
58 words
A simulated bombing playing machine as claimed in claim 3, further characterized in that when said hit detector means has detected a hit of bombing by the fact that said virtual image of the trajectory has crossed with said virtual image of said target, the firing flash is lightened more brightly than in the case of not hitting.
