Beach sling-jump amusement device

Year	Description
1999	Invention patented by Rudolf Susko on September 28th, 1999. Abstract: A beach sling-jump amusement device for ejecting occupants into the air, featuring a pair of bows intersected by a brace secured on a support frame. An ejection seat having portions defining a trampoline for receiving an occupant. The trampoline is supported centrally in place by drawstrings laced to the bow arching arms. Unlike a conventional bow, the drawstrings with the seat are retracted to a drawn position in opposite direction toward the bow arch, enabling unobstructed ejection of an occupant into a free-flight and safe landing in water. The seat is retracted into a ready position by a winch mounted on the frame. An optional projectile capsule is provided, which is essentially a hollow ball made from a resilient material having a receiving cavity for an occupant. The capsule, adapted and sized for accommodating an occupant, is loosely positioned on the trampoline ring.
