Abstract:
A novel apparatus for mounting a piñata at least includes: a portable frame member; a pulley member at least having a pulley; a coupling member coupled between the portable frame member and the pulley member, the coupling member adapted to allow the pulley member to rotate about an axis orthogonal to pivot axis of the pulley member; and a tether member adapted to be coupled to a piñata at a first end, adapted to be operatively coupled to the pulley, and adapted to be pulled at a second end by a user. The portable frame member provides vertical and horizontal clearance for piñata games to occur underneath. The tether member facilitates changing the vertical position of a tethered piñata, while changing the rotational position of the pulley member via transverse movement of the tether member by the user facilitates changing the path of a swinging piñata projected from a horizontal plane.
