Abstract

The dartboard comprises a disc divided by radial spokes (1) and concentric hoops for defining a number of fields, each incorporating a spring-loaded, axially displaced segment (4) and a contact plate (9) with contacts indicating a strike of the respective segment (4). The latter has at least one attached pin (11) brought into contact with the contact plate (9) upon its axial displacement in response to a strike, with a rubber mat (10) between the rear of the segment (4) and the surface of the contact plate (9). An adapter plate (12) fits between the rubber mat (10) and the rear of the segment (4) incorporating bores for each of the pins (11), guiding the axial movement of the latter.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Wurfpfeil-Scheibe nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a dartboard disc according to the preamble of claim 1.

Eine derartige Wurfpfeil-Scheibe ist beispielsweise aus der GB-A-2 209 959 bekannt.Such a dart target is for example from the GB-A-2 209 959 known.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine derartige Wurfpfeil- Scheibe zu vereinfachen und zu verbessern.The object of the invention is such a dart target to simplify and improve.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe gelöst durch bewegliche Schieber, die an den Speichen und/oder Reifen, diese U-förmig hintergreifend, verschieblich geführt sind, und mit den Schiebern verbundene, vorzugsweise in diese eingepreßte weitere Stifte, die Führungsnuten der Speichen und/oder Reifen und der Seitenwände der Segmente durchgreifen, wobei die Führungsnuten der Speichen und/ oder Reifen einerseits und der Segmente andererseits entgegengesetzt L-förmig verlaufen, so daß die Stifte der Schieber in die Führungsnuten der Speichen und/oder Reifen eingeführt und mit den Führungsnuten verrastet werden können. Die Dartsegmente und die Stahlspeichen haben also sogenannte Schlüssellöcher. Auf den Speichen bzw. Reifen werden die beweglichen Schieber mit den eingepreßten Stiften geführt. Die Dartsegmente werden von vorn in die Felder zwischen den Speichen und Reifen eingesetzt und sodann über den beweglichen Schieber eingerastet und somit verriegelt. Sie können durch eine Bewegung des Schiebers in entgegengesetzte Richtung wieder entriegelt und nach vorne entnommen werden. According to the invention, this object is achieved by movable slides, those on the spokes and / or tires, which engage in a U-shape, are slidably guided and connected to the sliders, preferably pressed into this further pins, the guide grooves the spokes and / or tires and the side walls of the segments reach through, with the guide grooves of the spokes and / or tires on the one hand and the segments on the other L-shaped, so that the pins of the slide in the Guide grooves of the spokes and / or tires introduced and with the guide grooves can be locked. The dart segments and the steel spokes have so-called keyholes. On the Spokes and tires are the movable slide with the pressed Pins led. The dart segments are in front of the fields between the spokes and tires inserted and then locked in place via the movable slide and thus locked. You can move the slide in opposite directions Unlocked in the direction and removed towards the front.

Die Wurfpfeil-Scheibe besteht aus einem Gerüst mit Speichen 1 und Reifen, die zwischen sich eine Vielzahl von Feldern begrenzen, in denen jeweils ein federbelastetes Segment 4 axialverschieblich geführt ist. Das Segment 4 besitzt eine Trefferfläche mit einer Vielzahl von Löchern zur Aufnahme des Wurfpfeils. Jedes Loch besitzt auf der Seite der Trefferfläche eine konische Erweiterung zur Erleichterung der Aufnahme des Wurfpfeils. The dartboard consists of a frame with spokes 1 and tires that delimit a large number of fields between them, in each of which a spring-loaded segment 4 is axially displaceable is led. Segment 4 has a target area with a variety of holes for receiving the dart. Each hole has on the side of the hit area a conical enlargement to facilitate absorption the dart.

Das Dartsegment 4 ist innerhalb seines zwischen den Speichen 1 und den Reifen liegenden Feldes axialverschieblich geführt. The dart segment 4 is within its between the spokes 1 and the tire lying field axially displaceable.

Ein beweglicher, U-förmiger Schieber 45 umgreift bzw. hintergreift die Speiche 1. In den Schieber 45 ist ein Stift 46 eingepreßt. Der Stift 46 durchgreift beidseitig sowohl Führungsnuten 47 der Speichen 1 als auch Führungsnuten 48 der Seitenwände 25 der Segmente 4. Die Führungsnuten 47 der Speichen 1 einerseits und die Führungsnuten 48 der Segmente 4 andererseits verlaufen entgegengesetzt L-förmig, so daß die Stifte 46 der Schieber 45 in die Führungsnuten 47 der Speichen 1 eingeführt und mit den Führungsnuten 48 der Segmente 4 verrastet werden können. In der Fig. 1 ist die verrastete Position gezeigt. Die Dartsegmente 4 sind verriegelt. Die Fig. 2 zeigt die Stellung, in der die U-förmigen Schieber 45 mit ihren Stiften 46 in die Führungsnuten 47 der Speichen 1 eingesetzt sind. Die Dartsegmente können dann nach unten an den Stiften 46 vorbei in Position gebracht werden. Anschließend wird der Schieber 45 nach links geschoben, so daß die in Fig. 1 gezeigte verrastete Stellung erreicht wird. Die Führungsnuten 47 der Speichen 1 sind nach unten offen, um den Schieber einsetzen zu können (Fig. 2). Anschließend wird der Schieber 45 ganz nach rechts geschoben (Fig. 2), um die Segmente 4 von oben bzw. vorne in die zugehörigen Felder einschieben zu können. Anschließend wird der Schieber 25 nach links bewegt, so daß die Segmente 4 durch die Stifte 46 verrastet werden.A movable, U-shaped slide 45 encompasses or engages behind the spoke 1. In the slider 45 is a pin 46 pressed in. The pin 46 passes through both guide grooves on both sides 47 of the spokes 1 and guide grooves 48 of the side walls 25 of the segments 4. The guide grooves 47 of the spokes 1 on the one hand and the guide grooves 48 of the segments 4 run on the other hand opposite L-shaped, so that the pins 46 of the slide 45 inserted into the guide grooves 47 of the spokes 1 and with the guide grooves 48 of the segments 4 can be locked. In 1 the latched position is shown. The dart segments 4 are locked. Fig. 2 shows the position in which the U-shaped slide 45 with its pins 46 in the guide grooves 47 of the spokes 1 are inserted. The dart segments can then be brought down into position past the pins 46. Then the slide 45 is pushed to the left so that the latched position shown in Fig. 1 is reached. The Guide grooves 47 of the spokes 1 are open to the bottom To be able to use sliders (Fig. 2). Then the Slider 45 pushed all the way to the right (Fig. 2) to the segments 4 Insert from above or into the corresponding fields to be able to. Then the slide 25 is moved to the left, so that the segments 4 are locked by the pins 46.
