Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
97 words
An amusement device comprising (1) a shaped object prepared from a blended mixture of butadiene-styrene radial teleblock copolymers and hydrocarbon oil and (2) a target material of sufficient size for the shaped object to adhere thereon, said target material comprised of a material to which said shaped object adheres on impact chosen from a paper base coated with a compound selected from among zinc sulfide, zinc-cadmium sulfide, zinc-magnesium oxide, zinc selenide, cadmium selenide, zinc silicate, calcium-strontium sulfide, indium trisulfide, gallium triselenide, antimony trisulfide, red lead (Pb 3 O 4 ), titanium dioxide, zinc titanate, and zinc oxide.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
97 words
An amusement device comprising (1) a shaped object prepared from a blended mixture of butadiene-styrene radial teleblock copolymers and hydrocarbon oil and (2) a target material of sufficient size for the shaped object to adhere thereon, said target material comprised of a material to which said shaped object adheres on impact chosen from a paper base coated with a compound selected from among zinc sulfide, zinc-cadmium sulfide, zinc-magnesium oxide, zinc selenide, cadmium selenide, zinc silicate, calcium-strontium sulfide, indium trisulfide, gallium triselenide, antimony trisulfide, red lead (Pb 3 O 4 ), titanium dioxide, zinc titanate, and zinc oxide.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
