ABSTRACT:
A motor-driven, cam-operated, rod-supported swingable platform for providing horizontal and vertical movement to video games and their users, comprising a rectangular support frame having mounted at each corner thereof a vertical post from which a suspension rod is swingably attached at one end. The other end of each suspension rod is swingably attached to a corner of a rectangular platform upon which are mounted a video game and an operator's seat. A cam follower is provided on the bottom of the platform, and the cam follower is driven by a cam that is attached to one end of a drive arm that is attached at its other end to the shaft of a vertically positioned electric motor. Operation of the motor causes the platform to swing on its four suspension rods thereby giving a sense of motion and pleasure to persons who operate the video game while seated in the operator's seat on the platform.
