Portable Tethered Ring Toss Game Apparatus

Abstract

A ring and hook game ( 1 ) has a number of components that allow for the construction and disassembly of an apparatus that allows for play of the game without the use of existing, stationary structures. The main components of the apparatus structure include a vertical structural support ( 2 ), a horizontal structural support ( 3 ), and a base stand ( 11 ). The main components that allow for play of the game include a string ( 10 ), a hook ( 8 ), and a hook base ( 6 ). The combination of both the mobile structure and basic components for play of the game is seen as useful and desirable.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A ring and hook game apparatus that provides structural support for game play and the ability for transformation to allow for simple transport. The portable ring and hook game apparatus comprising of:
 a. Structural supports that allow for attachment of;   b. A string; and   c. A base for a hook.   
     
     
         2 . The ring and hook game apparatus of  claim 1  has a structure that is portable by means of collapse or disconnection 
     
     
         3 . The ring and hook game apparatus of  claim 1  has a structure that is collapsible by use of a pivoting mechanism or allow for physical separation of components. 
     
     
         4 . The ring and hook game apparatus of  claim 1  can be separated into components as described in  claim 3 . The components can be constructed with instructions by use of a visual system like color coding connecting pieces or physically by connecting conjoining pieces with guide string. 
     
     
         5 . The ring and hook game apparatus of  claim 1  has a hook base that is adjustable with respect to the support structure. 
     
     
         6 . The ring and hook game apparatus of  claim 1  has a hook base of  claim 5  that can be adjusted without the use of tools. 
     
     
         7 . The ring and hook game apparatus of  claim 1  has a hook base of  claim 5  that allows for the connection of a hook. 
     
     
         8 . The ring and hook game apparatus of  claim 1  has a hook base of  claim 5  that has a surface for decorations or visual art.
