Structure of rocking rod for new type horizontal contact video game

Claim 2

A rocking rod assembly for new types of horizontal contact video games comprising: a rocking rod(;) of which the central section has four guide rails; ring means for receiving said rocking rod, wherein said rocking rod having a base shaft extending through said ring means; and said ring means includes a centrally positioned passageway, said passageway having four guide grooves, each said guide groove configured to receive a corresponding guide rail, and whereby positioning said rocking rod in place without having un-intentional self-rotation; a setting ring means fitting around a portion said base shaft of said rocking rod for mounting said rocking rod in operative relationship to said ring means; a circuit means for controlling the switching of an electric signal transmitted to said video game, said circuit means including switching elements; and said circuit means including rod receiving means for receiving said base shaft of said rocking rod, whereby during use movement of said rocking rod moves said base shaft thereby providing the means for selectively independently actuating each of said switching elements; and a key means.

Claim 3

A rocking rod assembly according to claim 1, wherein said circuit means further includes: a base ring encircling and capping the end of a base shaft; a main body block having a square shaped central portion wherein said base ring is operatively positioned; four spring elements, each said spring element respectively defining a wall conforming to the square shaped central portion of said main body block, each said spring element mounted on said body block; a shaft stopping ring associated with each said spring element for transmitting a force applied to a respective said spring element via said base ring; a flexible guide sheet means associated with each said shaft means for contacting a said shaft means when a said shaft means is urged against a said guide sheet means, each said guide sheet means having an electrical output contact; and an output means associated with a said guide sheet means such that when said base ring pushes against a said spring element a said shaft means contacts a said guide sheet means and a said guide sheet means contacts said output means whereby an electrical circuit is completed between a said output contact of a said guide sheet means and a said corresponding output means.
