Obstacle course
First Claim
1. Housed within a shell of which the outer walls'"'"' design may vary to accommodate aesthetic preferences, the invention is an interactive obstacle course where the objective of the game is to transverse the length of the course to exit over the back wall at the rear of the obstacle course while avoiding to step onto any unlocked foot panel that will trigger the ceiling'"'"'s unique attribute of slowly descending and/or avoiding to cause the ceiling to descend too far as to block off the players'"'"' exit. The course operates through a system of interlocking mechanisms that includes gearwheels, levers, pistons, and springs on a platform deck and foot panels that are capable of being individually locked and unlocked. Movable components on the deck'"'"'s frames enables selected sections to separate, making it possible for the drop ceiling to descend and ascend along a beam-like structure that provides the course of travel for the drop ceiling. The obstacle course has the benefit of being set to different levels and paths. Though the shell'"'"'s design may vary, three attributes remain constant:
- one being that it includes a series of slots through which the handles of a lever and the knobs of the brake system can stand through, two that it includes pole supporters, and three a torsion spring flap.
