Abstract

A multi-purpose sports net that can be stacked to meet the various needs of the particular situation to prevent unwanted travel of balls as well as various height sports nets, that are part of the equipment for that sport, that are easily set up and rewound for storage.

Description

Detailed Description of Drawings Fig 1 shows a single net mechanism component with the net 10 wound up. The peg 11 is hammered or pushed into the ground and then the net assembly is placed on it. As the net assembly is placed on it, the ground pins 5 are pushed into the ground until the ground plate 6 touches the ground. The knob 7 is loosened to allow the net 10 to be unwound causing the recoil spring 12 to tighten. The end post 13 is placed onto another peg 11 that is also hammered or pushed into the ground at the desired distance of extension of the net.
Fig 2 shows the net assembly placed on peg 11. The net 10 is weaved about the bolted net post 3.
Fig 3 shows 3 single components stacked onto each other with rope pegs 14 securing the stack with rope 15 attached to the top of the posts of the and assemblies. Net ties 16 prevent say, a soccer ball, from passing between the nets.
The nets have been graphically shortened for clarity. A ribbon may be weaved through the net 10 to outline a goal.

Fig 4 shows 3 single components stacked without the nets. The ground pins 5 rest against the edge of the upper plate of the component it is stacked on top of to prevent rotation. The rotation of the net spindle is also locked when the knob 7 is tightened.
Fig 5 is a side view of Fig 4 showing the ground pins 5 rest against the edge of the upper plate of the component it is stacked on top of to prevent rotation. The rotation of the net spindle is also locked when the knob 7 is tightened.
Fig 6 shows an alternative embodiment of a low cost component that can also be stacked. This has the pegs 11 placed for manual two handed rewinding of the net 10.
Fig 7 shows the low cost component of Fig 6 without the net 10 on it that can also be stacked. This has the pegs 11 placed for manual two handed rewinding of the net 10. The pegs 11 can be permanently welded in place in the shown position or left lose to spin in the tube 23. Brace 24 may also be a piece of flat bar welded to the tube 23.
Fig 8 shows a lose peg 11 that can spin in tube 23 and also placed in the opposite tube 23 to increase the ground support when pressed into the ground. This peg for the low cost component has a washer welded to it in the center.
Fig 9 show 3 stacked low cost components and their end pole stacked as well.
Both assemblies are pressed in the ground. The lose peg that can spin in tube 23 is placed in the opposite tube 23 to increase the ground support when pressed into the ground. The nets and ropes pegs are similar to the self rewind configuration.
The nets require a means to secure the net on the welded pole, such as hook and barb or string weave.
Fig 10 shows the recoil spring housing 21with the knob 7 unthreaded from knob thread 20. The recoil spring 18 has one end bent and placed in recoil spring housing slot 19. The other end is bent and placed in recoil spring spindle tube slot 22. When the ground pins 5 of ground plate 6 is pressed into the ground and unwound, the recoil spring 18 is tensioned. The end post is pressed into the ground in the desired position or length and then the net can be tensioned by rewind the =

spindle assembly by spinning upper plate 4 clockwise and then tightening knob to lock the spindle assembly to ground plate 6.
Fig 11 shows the spindle 25 which is made of the upper plate 4, lower plate 1 that are welded to 3 welded net posts 2. The bolted net post 3 is placed through the net sleeve of net 10 and bolted with bolted net post nut 9 to make the spindle assembly.
Fig 12 shows ground plate 6. The ground recoil spring spindle tube slot 22 holds one end of the recoil spring 18 which has it's end bent and placed in. The end post is pressed into the ground in the desired position or length and then the net can be tensioned by rewinding the spindle assembly 25 by spinning upper plate 4 clockwise and then tightening knob 7 to lock the spindle assembly to ground plate 6 by squeezing the spindle assembly to the ground plate.
Fig 13 shows the knob 7 having an internal thread.
Fig 14 shows the end post 13 and peg 11 used with the self winding component.
A
pin 26 is used to lock peg 11 to end post 13, both having holes through them.

As the net assembly is placed on it, the ground pins 5 are pushed into the ground as well until the ground plate 6 touches the ground. The knob 7 is loosened to allow the net 10 to be unwound causing the recoil spring 12 to tighten.

The end post 13 is placed onto another peg 11 that is also hammered or pushed into the ground at the desired distance of extension of the net. The rotation of the net spindle is also locked when the knob 7 is tightened.
Single components stacked onto each other with rope pegs 14 securing the stack with rope 15 attached to the top of the posts of the and assemblies. Net ties prevent say a soccer ball from passing between the nets. A ribbon may be weaved through the net 10 to outline a goal. The ground pins 5 rest against the edge of the upper plate of the component it is stacked on top of to prevent rotation.
When the ground pins 5 of ground plate 6 is pressed into the ground and unwound, the recoil spring 18 is tensioned. The end post is pressed into the ground in the desired position or length and then the net can be tensioned by rewinding the spindle assembly by spinning upper plate 4 clockwise and then tightening knob to lock the spindle assembly to hold the net in a greater tension than that provided by the recoil spring. The spindle is locked, when knob 7 is tightened on knob thread 20, by squeezing the spindle assembly to the ground plate 6, which has the spindle tube 17 welded to it.
Operation of Low cost component.
The person would leave the end post in the ground and walk towards it as they spin the low cost component about the pegs 11 that are held in each hand. To unwind the net 10, they will hold one of the pegs, after securing the end post, and walk to unwind the net. The net is pulled tight and the peg(s) pressed into the ground.
