Dartboard assembly incorporating interchangeable game sheets depicting a variety of sport and recreational themes

Abstract

The present invention is an assembleable game board assembly including a structurally supporting frame including a planar shaped and dart tip absorbing backing for receiving at least one insert sheet representative of a game play variant. A pair of upper and lower edge extending members are positioned in retaining fashion over corresponding upper and lower edges of the insert sheet and which receiving threaded compression screws with turn knobs through apertures defined in the ends of the elongate members and which align with threaded apertures associated with upper and lower edge locations of the frame.

         4 . The game board assembly of  claim 3 , further comprising additional screws interconnecting said outer frame defining members and, in combination with said inner supporting boards, defining a structurally supporting backing for receiving said dart tip absorptive surface. 
     
     
         5 . The game board assembly of  claim 4 , said planar supported portion further comprising a pair of sheet members each having a specified thickness and which are mounted within the perimeter defined by said outer frame members and upon said structurally backing supporting boards. 
     
     
         6 . The game board assembly of  claim 5 , said absorptive sheet members being constructed of any of cork, Bristol board, polymeric or polystyrene material.

The game board assembly of  claim 2 , further comprising a pair of apertures formed in opposite ends of said upper and lower surface adhering members and which are positioned in alignment with additional interiorly threaded receiving apertures defined in end locations of said frame members, a plurality of tightening screws with integrally formed turn knobs install within said aligning apertures in order to draw said surface adhering members against said planar supported portion so as to compress the inserted edges of said game play sheet therebetween. 
     
     
         8 . The game board assembly of  claim 3 , further comprising a recessed ledge profile configured along at least one underside extending edge of said planar backing which aligns and seats in lip edge engaging fashion with a mating ledge exhibited by angled surfaces defined along at least one of said supporting boards. 
     
     
         9 . The game board assembly of  claim 1 , said game play sheet exhibiting a generally rectangular shape corresponding to an outline of said body and further comprising a battle-n-darts game. 
     
     
         10 . The game board assembly of  claim 1 , said game play sheet exhibiting a generally rectangular shape corresponding to an outline of said body and further comprising a tennis-n-darts game. 
     
     
         11 . The game board assembly of  claim 1 , said game play sheet exhibiting a generally rectangular shape corresponding to an outline of said body and further comprising a bowl-n-darts game. 
     
     
         12 . The game board assembly of  claim 1 , said game play sheet exhibiting a generally rectangular shape corresponding to an outline of said body and further comprising a golf-n-darts game. 
     
     
         13 . The game board assembly of  claim 1 , said game play sheet exhibiting a generally rectangular shape corresponding to an outline of said body and further comprising a horseshoe-n-darts game. 
     
     
         14 . The game board assembly of  claim 1 , said game play sheet exhibiting a generally rectangular shape corresponding to an outline of said body and further comprising a hunt-n-darts game. 
     
     
         15 . The game board assembly of  claim 1 , said game play sheet exhibiting a generally rectangular shape corresponding to an outline of said body and further comprising a pong-n-darts game. 
     
     
         16 . The game board assembly of  claim 1 , said game play sheet exhibiting a generally rectangular shape corresponding to an outline of said body and further comprising a shuffle-n-darts game. 
     
     
         17 . The game board assembly of  claim 1 , said game play sheet exhibiting a generally rectangular shape corresponding to an outline of said body and further comprising a pool-n-darts game. 
     
     
         18 . The game board assembly of  claim 1 , said game play sheet exhibiting a generally rectangular shape corresponding to an outline of said body and further comprising a poker-n-darts game. 
     
     
         19 . A dart game board assembly, comprising:
 a body comprising a plurality of elongate and outer perimeter defining frame members assembled in end to end fashion in order to create a four sided rectangular enclosure;   a further plurality of elongated and substantially flattened inner extending and supporting boards mounted in at least one of vertically or horizontally extending fashion between top and bottom perimeter defining members;   an absorptive backing surface mounted over said inner extending and supporting boards and between said outer perimeter defining frame members; and   upper and lower surface adhering and elongated members applied against an exterior of said body at locations for securing underneath inserting edges of a game play sheet covering said absorptive backing.
