A multi-purpose projecting device for propelling and disseminating, generally vertically, paper disks, confetti, or fluid contained in a cartridge. Contents of the cartridge as well as the outside surface of the launching tube may be covered with a fluorescent material. The launching tube may serve
A multi-purpose projecting device for propelling and disseminating, generally vertically, paper disks, confetti, or fluid contained in a cartridge. Contents of the cartridge as well as the outside surface of the launching tube may be covered with a fluorescent material. The launching tube may serve as a flagpole to supplement its primary function at large social gatherings such as sporting or music events, wedding ceremonies, holiday celebrations, etc. The device consists of a two-part cylindrical launching apparatus and a cylindrical cartridge that may hold paper disks, confetti, fluid, or other soft materials such as fiber, string, fabric, etc. The upper section of the launching tube folds back, into which the cartridge can then be inserted. The lower section of the launching tube consists of a spring, a plunger, a spring, a string, and a trigger. After the cartridge is loaded, a string connecting to the plunger is pulled, contracting the spring and setting the trigger ready for launching. The upper section of the tube is then restored to its original position. Pressing the trigger releases the plunger, which moves along the launching tube due to pressure from the extending spring. The plunger compresses air within the tube, propelling contents of the cartridge through the upper section of the launching tube to be ejected.

The box call of claim 1, wherein said means for biasing said striker lid against a contactable wall of said sound box comprises a stretchable band connecting to said means for holding and extending through said opening in said side wall, said distal end of said stretchable band attaching to a retaining means. 3. The box call of claim 1, wherein said means for biasing said striker lid against a contactable wall of said sound box comprises a stretchable band connecting to said means for holding and forming a loop extending through said opening in said side wall, said loop having a portion extending around a front end of said sound box and a portion extending beneath said sound box to a retaining means. 4. The box call of claim 3, wherein said retaining means is at least one notch formed in a side edge of said base opposite said opening. 5. The box call of claim 3, wherein said retaining means comprises a selected one of a plurality of U-shaped notches being formed into said longitudinal edge of said base. 6. The box call of claim 1, wherein said means for pivotal mounting said striker lid to sail sound box is a screw. 7. The box call of claim 1, wherein said means for holding is an eye screw. 8. The box call of claim 6, wherein said compression means is a spring coaxially mounted to said screw. 9. A box call comprising: a generally rectangular, elongated hollow wooden sound box forming internally a sound chamber, said sound box comprising a base connecting to a front end wall connecting a pair of spaced apart generally parallel side walls to a back end wall; a striker lid comprising a generally rectangular, elongated planar member for cooperatively engaging said hollow wooden sound box, said elongated planar member defining a top surface and a bottom longitudinal convex surface; means for holding mounting to said top surface of said striker lid; means for pivotal mounting said striker lid for pivotal movement across the open top of said sound box, against and perpendicular to, the longitudinal axis of a selected side wall of said sound box; compression means for holding said striker lid a selected and adjustable distance from said sound box where said striker lid is pivotally mounted to said sound box; means for holding projecting from said bottom surface of said striker lid limiting pivotal movement thereof; at least one of said side walls of said sound box including an opening in alignment with said means for holding; and means of biasing said striker lid against at least one side wall of said sound box for resisting movement of said striker across said at least one side wall of said sound box
