ABSTRACT:
Improved action is provided in an air powered game wherein the puck glides on a cushion of air by providing the puck with an annular bumper member of resiliently deformable resin to impact and resiliently rebound from the side boundaries of the playing surface. The puck is comprised of a body member of rigid resin providing an upstanding circular wall and an annular shoulder thereabout. The annular bumper member seats about the circular wall on the annular shoulder and projects outwardly of the periphery of the body member. The game table surface is provided with a pattern of spaced perforations through which air escapes and the puck is dimensioned and configured to provide a recess in its bottom surface which will overlie sufficient of the perforations as to be subjected to air streams effectively overcoming the weight of the puck member and thus providing minimal frictional surface resistance to movement of the puck member.
