An automatic pinsetter (12) employing magnetically bowling pins (50), an elevator mechanism (10) for retrieving bowling pins (50) from a pit area (14) adjacent an end portion of a bowling alley (16) and for transporting the same to a pin discharge station (A) above a transfer mechanism (18). The pins (50) are arranged in bowling array on a transfer mechanism (18) which is thereafter moved horizontally beneath a pinsetting mechanism (20). The pinsetting mechanism (20) employs magnetic means for elevating the pins (50), the transfer mechanism (18) is retracted from beneath the pinsetting mechanism (20), and the latter thereupon deposits the pins (50) on the bowling alley (16) in bowling array. The pinsetting mechanism (20) is also adapted to pick-up and replace remaining upright pins (50) after a first ball has been thrown whether the pins (50) reside in "on spot" or "off spot" positions.

Planteuse automatique (12) employant des quilles (50) de bowling magnétiques, et un mécanisme élévateur (10) destiné à ramasser les quilles (50) de bowling dans une fosse voisine (14) de la zone terminale d'une piste (16) de quilles, et à les transporter jusqu'à un poste de décharge (A) situé au-dessus d'un mécanisme de transfert (18). Les quilles (50) sont disposées en quillier sur le mécanisme de transfert (18), lequel se déplace horizontalement sous un mécanisme (20) de planteuse. Le mécanisme (20) de planteuse utilise un dispositif magnétique pour soulever les quilles (50), le mécanisme (18) de transfert se retire de la zone située sous le mécanisme (20) de planteuse, et ce dernier dépose les quilles (50) sur la piste (16) de manière à former un quillier. Le mécanisme (20) de planteuse est également adapté pour ramasser et remettre en place les quilles (50) restées debout après le lancement d'une première boule, que les quilles (50) aient une disposition régulière ou irrégulière.
