ABSTRACT:
In a translucent play ball, an improvement of apparatus for illuminating the play ball utilizes batteries and a lamp. The apparatus includes three compressible helical springs and a translucent casing for encapsulating the batteries, lamp and springs. The springs are compressed within the casing in contact with one another. The lamp is secured to an end of the middle spring, which also encircles the batteries. The spring to the side away from the lamp holds the batteries in contact with the lamp and itself contacts the batteries. A series circuit is thus completed through the batteries to the springs and back to the lamp. In modified forms, the casing has removable and locking end caps and a switch for switching off the lamp by decompressing the springs.
