The disclosure and prior art relates to score tracking assemblies and more particularly pertains to a new score tracking assembly for accessorizing a cornhole game set.
An embodiment of the disclosure meets the needs presented above by generally comprising a box that defines an interior space. The box has a top that is open so that the top is configured to selectively insert bean bags into the interior space. Each of a pair of rods is coupled to and extends between opposing ends of the box proximate to the top. Each of a plurality of rings is positioned around a respective rod. The ring is positioned to be selectively slid on the respective rod to track a score of a player. A handle is coupled to the box proximate to the top and is configured to be grasped in a hand of a user to lift the box.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the disclosure in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the disclosure that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
The objects of the disclosure, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the disclosure, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure.
The disclosure will be better understood and objects other than those set forth above will become apparent when consideration is given to the following detailed description thereof. Such description makes reference to the annexed drawings wherein:
With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to
As best illustrated in
Each of a pair of rods 18 is coupled to and extends between opposing ends 20 of the box 12 proximate to the top 16, as shown in
Each of a plurality of rings 24 is positioned around a respective rod 18, as shown in
A handle 26 is coupled to the box 12 proximate to the top, as shown in
The lower edge 32 of the plate 28 extends between the opposing sides 22 of the box 12, as shown in
Each of a pair of cutouts 38 extends into a respective opposing side 22 of the box 12 from the top 16, as shown in
In use, the handle 26 is used to lift the box 12 and to transport the box 12 and the bean bags to a site where a game of cornhole is to be played. The bean bags are extracted from the interior space 14 through the cutouts 38 or the top 16 of the box 12. The rings 24 are slid on the rods 18 between the opposing ends 20 of the box 12 to track the scores of the players in the game. Upon completion, the bean bags are inserted into the interior space 14.
With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.
Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
