Abstract

Targets are formed by openings (5) in a flexible material (4) with pockets to the rear. This non-elastic material has eyelets riveted around its periphery and is held tight within a rigid metal or plastic frame (2) by lacing (6). The assembly is rapidly erected and held by pegs.

TARGET GAMES

  The present invention relates to a game for anyone of any age, which can be played on foot, by hand or with a racket or any other possibility requiring a

reception objective.

  The player (s) are placed between 5 to 8 meters from the objective and must make a ball, a ball, a ball penetrate into one of the three target pockets (fig 4 n 5, 7) materialized in a vertical plane by a PVC, fabric or other non-elastic material, (fig 4 n 4) the latter stretched between two vertical bars and two horizontal bars which form a frame. (Fig2 n02, .3,1) The whole set consists of a rigid, metallic or PVC part of tubular, circular shape forming a frame and two crutches maintaining its verticality, of a diameter sufficient according to the material to ensure without deformation the holding of the stretched part. (fig 2) The frame is composed of 16 elements including 4 curved parts fitting together (fig 5 n 1,2,3,8) one inside the other by a male female system, (fig 5 nl 1,12) two feet on a plate pierced to ensure fixing to the ground by stakes. (fig 2) Two crutches in 2 elements each keep the frame vertical and are fixed to the ground by a stake. (fig 3 n 8,13) The elements assembled together fixed to the ground and held by PVC, fabric or other material, stretched in its interior must ensure good stability of the whole and

  resistance to repeated impact of a ball or ball.

  There may be different finish colors, either by paint, thermo

lacquering or plasticizing.

  The assembly will remain light, transportable manually by a single person and

removable.

  The inner part of the so-called target frame consists of a solid, translucent or opaque element, made of flexible material, PVC, fabric or other (fig 4 n 4). Are cut, two in the upper part and one in the lower part, round holes (fig 4 n 5) extended by a pocket fixed on the perimeter of the opening (fig 4 n 7) forming targets that the ball, the ball or a ball must reach, the pocket retaining the projectile. The canvas is stretched on the frame by a bungee cord system on three sides, (fig 1 n 6) two sides and the lower part. The upper sleeve-shaped part is slid around the upper bar of the frame. A series of eyelets is riveted on the perimeter of the fabric ensuring a regular tension of the assembly. (Fig 4 etS) The target, according to the invention, is mainly intended for ball games. The pocket targets can be of different diameter depending on the type of bullet used. A PVC kit with variable diameters (figl n 14) is fixed on the target openings. The

  choice of diameter depends on the ball used.

  A variant of the frame can be produced with a removable lower bar, two extensions of the vertical tubes of the frame are added to the assembly, (fig7 n 15) a net being added and thrown on the rear part of the frame and fixed on the stand by a simple knot .. (fig 6 n 16) 2_

Claims (2)

  1 set of targets characterized in that it includes hollow targets terminated by a pocket (pocket target) cut out (fig 4 n 5,7) in a full translucent or opaque flexible material of PVC, fabric or other, (fig 4 n 4) non-elastic fixed by eyelets riveted on its periphery, (fig 1 n 9) connected and stretched itself inside a   metal or hard plastic frame, (fig 2 n 1,2,3,8) by bungee cords (fig 1 n 6).   The assembly, frame and canvas, quickly mounting and fixing with stakes (fig n 1,2,3,8,13). 2 sets of targets according to claim 1 characterized in that the pocket targets can have a different diameter by a system added and fixed on the perimeter of the [0 openings The system can be PVC, plastic, wood. (fig 1 n 14) 3 sets of targets according to claim 1 characterized in that in a variant a net can be added and fixed on the rear of the frame. (fig 6 n 16) 4 sets of targets according to claim 1 characterized in that in a variant the lower bar of the frame will be removable and two extensions will be added I 5 on the frame (fig 7 n 15).
