ABSTRACT:
A kicker apparatus for a slingshot bumper assembly in a pin ball game including a playfield board on which a ball rolls for engagement with a resilient impact band to actuate a drive solenoid, includes a frame which mounts the solenoid with its plunger axis perpendicular to the playfield board and which pivotally supports a drive crank having one end connected to the solenoid plunger and the other end projecting above the playfield board. A kicker member is loosely fitted over the upper end of the crank and has guide feet respectively slidably received in a pair of track channels in the frame for reciprocating movement along a path parallel to the playfield board in response to the pivotal movement of the crank for engagement with the impact band to impart a propelling force to the ball in a direction substantially parallel to the playfield board.
