The goal tending mannequin is likewise unted on a lateral
moving platform. Goal tending mannequin ha~ a ~tabilizing bar
att~ to ~ack of frame, which leads to the platform, this
not only stahili7es the position , but also allow~ for lateral
movement. This lateral movoment ,either to the left or right
side by way of the platform, to defend frontal orening of
goalie net. Hand controlq on platform have two(2) function~,
one(1) to ve platform (goal tender) to left or right ~ide or
to set in motion left or right side of goal t~nAi ng mannequin,
by triggering the trigger on the left hand control it will ~et
off a set of commands. The trigger has a cable that runs from
and through laft leg to left arm, which , aleuatas both arm and
leg to desired elevation to ~top the projected object~. The
right ~ide functionA preci~ely like the left Ride with the
ad~ition o the go lie ~tick. What make~ this mannequin unique
is that it i~ able to ve either to the left or right ~ide
while ha~ing the ability to move both the arms and legs
horizontally ~imultar-~u~ly. Arm~ and leg~ will return to their
et po~ition when the trigger i~ relea ed. By depr~ ng the
trigger a little at a time it will allow the cperator to r-hooPe
the de~ired defense po~ition. Not included in drawing~, the
goal te~ing mannequin co~ have the ability to move in and
out in front of the goalie net, if the lateral platfonm ~as
built in an oval ~hape on guide rail~. Al~o not included in
dra~ing~ i~ the ability to move the mannequin do~n and up when
doing the ~plit~.
Therefore the objective of thi~ invention is to enh~n~
the reality of playing ice hockey.

An ~o~ nt of the invention will now be described by
way of eYamrle with reference to the accompanying drawing~.
Referring to FIGURE 1, there is a playing ~urface 60 which has
painted on a red go~l scoring line 69 a red goal line 68 and a
blue neutral line 70. There are sides around the playing
~urface 62 which rescmble hoc~ey boards, a protective shield 61
to protect participants fr propelled objects A lateral
platfQnm ~4 that i~ ~uided hy guidç rail~ ~3 al~o hou~ed on
platorm are hand controls 65 and goal ten~ing mannequin
stahili7ing bar 66, mounted atop of side board~ and po~itioned
in defen~ive zone is protective shield 61. Positioned at
of$en ive end of FIGUR~ 1 ~o~ n7 unit 67 for rotating disc 35
which i~ a platform for the goal qcoring m~nn~quin ~. FIGURE
2 shows a bottom view of 35 rotating di~c, brackets 72 hold the
axle rod in place 71, in FIGUR~ 3 we see top view of rotating
di~c 35 the bolts 73 for the bracket 72 that hold the axle 71
in place. Al~o shown 74 a bolt for 34 in FIGUR~ 6 . FIGURE 4
shows the defen~ive go~l ten~ing ~nn~uin 1 the deflecting
blocker 2 ,hoc~ey pants a~ partial co~6~ing lA. To kick at
projected cbject~, the pad~ 4 , to catch the puck~, the
lifelike m~nn~uin has a trapper 7 . Att~ch-~ to the lower
part~ of the padQ 4 are ~kate 8 the upper body eovering i~ a
jersey 5 thi~ unique goal t~n~ing --nn~quin ean divert abject~
with the goalie ~tiek 3 the life like movement-~ of this
~annequin are revolutionary to table top h~e~ey. A mask 6
eampleting the attire of the goal tenA^r 1. What makes this
goal t - ~ing mannequin unique is its re~l life like mobility
m~vement~. u~ing pads 4 and skates 8 to kiek out objeets, able
to defleet dises u~ing hoekey stiek, 3 redireet with bloeker 2
and eateh pueks ~ith trapper. 7 . This invention is able to
help partieipants with par~irllla~ motor q~ , sueh as eye
hand eoordination, reflex ability, and handle the fear of
projected objects. FIGURE 5 show~ left arm m~mber 9 attached
to body frame 17 by means of ro~recting pin 11 , that is
thr~ with a eable 20 that run3 from left leg 13 which is
also att~-h~ to body framR 17 by means of eonneeting pin 15.
Left eable eontrol 20 run~ through left eable guide 18 that
runs to trigger eontrol 76. Right leg member 14 att~hP~ to

As shown in FIGUR~ 6 the goal scoring m~nnequin 22 propels disc
like pucks 32 toward the goal u~ing the hockey stick 28 ,
at~--hoA to the top of the stick i~ left glove 22A., a right
glove 23 is atta~-h~A to the lower part, the mid section of the
mannequin is eq"irr^~ with hockey pants 31 . Upper parts has a
jersey 30, left leg and right leg have sock coverings 24, 25.
The m~nn~quin is m~unted on a rotating di~c 35 using a support
post 34 , on the head is a helmet 29 . A left leg skate 26 and
the right l~g 27 A hand çontrol deYiçe 33 i~ u~çd tQ ,operate
the -~nne~uin 22 . Now as shown in FIGURE 7~8 the back part of
the mannequin leg support . ~r 36 used to house leg ~mh~rs
39. To join the left arm mRmber 41 and right arm ~~~ 42 that
are housed in the anm support member 40 i~ mid body bolt 38
that runs through the mid body ..~er 4~ and i~ conn~cted by a
mid body bolt fastener 47 . A hand control ~upport bracket 37
is used to ~n^~t the hand control ~ q1c 44 to the leg
support r ~er 36 using bolts 45 and 46 . An important part of
the swivel action is the anm swivel brac~et 40A, this is
ro~n~çted to the hand control 33 using a ro~n~cting bolt 59.
When the trigger on the hand control 33 is pulled this
aetivates the lever 56 to aetivate the arm ~wivel braeket 40A
in return activating hockey ~tic~ ~8 as ~hown in FI&URE 6 to
maXe eontaet with puek~ 32. Goal seoring mannequin is a unique
member 22 of thi~ invention, participant i~ able to project
di~e like pueks 3Z with pin point aeeuraey to any part of the
goal 75. For ~X~mrle the goal seoring mannequin ~.ay~a -4et up to
shoot for lower eorner but a quiek movement in a split seeQr~,
may shoot for the tcp eorner or an~.r~^re elQe offensive
partieipant desires. the ~-nnequin to shoot. This quick
movement will pressure defen~ive partieipant to reaet with
rapier like -~peed in defen~i n~ goalie net 75 with go~l t~n~i ng
m~nn~uin 1 . FIGURB 9 shows hand eontrol me~h~ni-~m 33 made up
of many part~, a ehas~i~ 44 that hou~es a handle 48 conneGted
to the rh~ C 44 ~ith rivets 50 . Rivets are also used 51 for
trigger plaeement 49 . The trigger al~o has a hs~ ing 52 for
cable 58 . It runs from lever 56 to trigger 49 ,lever has a
eable housing 57 there are loeks for eable 53 . There are eable
guides 54A & 54B mounted in the ehassi~ 44 to guide eable 58 .
Trigger i-Q pulled 49 to aetivate lever 56 , aetivating hoekey
stiek 28 , reset springs 55A and 55B are then aetivated to
reset ~hani~~ . Bracket bolt 45 is used to co~&t hand
eontrol 33 to braeket 37 . FIGURE 10 shows lateral platform 64

20 being ~o~n~cted to left trigger control 76 , right side
control cable ~1 conn~ts to right trigger control 77. Goal
~,~n~ing mann^~uin 1 show~n in FIGUR~ 4 and 5 mounted on
st~hili7ing bar 66 and a goalie net 75. Illustrated in FIGURE
11 the goalie net 75 is able to fold dow~n having hinges 78
atta~hr~A to goal post. Thia allows participant to snap out
lateral platfonm that houses goal tr~nrAing mannequin 1 and
rreplace with accuracy targets 79 . Target holders are clamped
to goal post for accuracy competition. Playing surface 60 .
Whereas there ha~e been described and shcwn a preferred
~ ~o~ nt it is also to be made clear and understood that
other ~arious difications and adaptation~ are able to be made
~ithin the scope and spirit of this invention.
