Abstract:
A special effects device for providing an energy sword effect. The device includes two long plastic semi-cylinders, and these two blade body members are rolled perpendicular to their length, which creates compact cylinders of material of small volume that can be provided on a pair of spools in a hilt. To extend the blade, a motor provided in the hilt unrolls the blade body members from the spools. Each blade body member passes through a blade forming guideway that nests the semi-cylindrical blade body members together as they leave the hilt. To retract the blade, the process is reversed. The lighting of the blade is achieved with a flexible strip of light sources. The light source strip is attached to a blade end cap and positioned in the center of the two blade body members such that it is pulled up along with the blade body members during their extension.

Claim (Index 14):
The special effects device of  claim 10 , further including a first spool, pivotally supported in the hilt body, for receiving a first one of the blade body members during retraction of the blade into the hilt body and a second spool, pivotally supported in the hilt body, for receiving a second one of the blade body members during retraction of the blade into the hilt body, wherein the drive assembly comprises a drive motor operating to concurrently rotate the first and second spools in a first direction during retraction of the blade into the hilt body and in a second direction, opposite the first direction, during extension of the blade out of the hilt body.
