US Patent:
2010018, Jul 29, 2010
Filed:
Jan 26, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/359678
Inventors:
Edwin W. Hickox - Port Orange FL, US
International Classification:
A63B 71/06
US Classification:
235 1 B
Abstract:
A handheld, thumb or finger operated, umpire's counter having three dials to indicate the count kept by the umpire for each of “strikes”, “balls”, and “outs”. Each dial has associated with it a null indicator having a tactile output perceptible to the touch. This tactile output enables the umpire to determine when the respective dial is set to “0”, or to set and/or reset a respective dial to “0” without looking at the counter. It also permits the umpire to confirm that each dial is indeed set to “0” before he begins counting.
