ABSTRACT:
An arm wrestling apparatus having an elevated frame with a first end and second end, a first side and a second side. Elbow pads are provided towards opposite corners of the apparatus and targets are provided on the frame diagonally across from each other on the corners not having the elbow pad structures thereon. This arrangement of the elbow pads and targets for winning cause the loser's arm to be bent in a natural direction, as contrasted with the direction of bending in conventional arm wrestling. Vertical and lateral adjusting mechanisms are provided for the elbow pads for accommodating the physical differences in dimensions for people's arms. Also, the positions of the elbow pads and targets can be shifted around the table to accommodate either a left or a right hand contest. Seats are provided for each contestant and mechanisms are provided for vertically adjusting the seats to accommodate various sizes of contestants for the purpose of equalizing the contest. Also, a mechanism is provided for adjusting the distance of the seat from each respective end of the table. An electrical circuit including numerous switches are provided to indicate the winner, and to detect cheating.
