Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a foosball table.
- As know, conventional tables for playing table football, or "foosball", comprise a quadrangular frame, usually made of wood, having a base representing a miniature football field.
- The frame, which is usually assembled by means of screws and/or bolts and glue, supports player bearing metallic rods, sliding in adapted bushes, fixed in respective seats formed in the frame, for example by means of an edge cover screwed on it.
- On each rod, at the opposite side of the bush, there are two metallic springs adapted to prevent the grips and the end players from violently hitting the frame.
- Conventional foosballs therefore have a certainly not easy assembly, because of their several connection members: screws, bolts, bushes, springs, etc., and are also bulky because, even when not in use, they occupy a great space causing problems in small rooms.
- This problem is enhanced by the fact that conventional foosballs are made of materials (wood and metal) which are easily spoiled by the weather elements and the conventional foosball tables should always be kept indoors after use.
- The aim of the present invention is to eliminate the above described inconveniences of the prior art.
- Within this aim, an important object of the invention is to provide a foosball table that can be assembled in a short time and in an extremely easy manner, thanks to the fact that it is provided in a small number of components.
- A further object of the invention is to provide a foosball table that, when not used, can be transformed into a comfortable working table so that it does not uselessly occupy space in the room.
- A further object of the invention is to provide a foosball table that can be made of plastics, and without metallic materials, in order to be resistant to the weather even if left outdoors.
- Still a further object of the invention is to provide a foosball table which can be assembled by snap together connection of the components. Therefore, the main components, such as the field and the players layout, can be varied in order to change type of game.
- The above aim and objects are achieved by a foosball table comprising four legs for supporting a frame having a sheetlike base, depicting a game field, and comprising player supporting rods which are rotatable inside bushes associated with said frame, characterized in that two resilient members are provided at the opposite ends of each of said bushes, said resilient members and said bushes forming a one piece body of self-lubricating plastic material provided with connection means for being associated with said frame, an edge cover being provided in said bushes, also said edge cover being provided with connection means for its association with said frame.
- Further characteristics and advantages of the invention will be more apparent by the description of a preferred but not exclusive embodiment of a foosball table according to the invention, illustrated, by way of indicative but not exclusive example in the enclosed drawings wherein:
- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the foosball table according to the invention;
- Fig. 2 is a perspective exploded view of the sliding bushes for the rods, with the respective edge cover of the foosball table shown in Fig. 1;
- Fig. 3 is a view of the extension means of the foosball legs, shown in Fig. 1 according to the invention;
- Fig. 4 is a perspective exploded view of a different embodiment of the connection means of the edge cover and of the bushes to the foosball structure, according to the invention shown in Fig. 1;
- Fig. 5 is a perspective exploded view of the sheetlike base which can be associated with the foosball frame, according to the invention;
- Fig. 6 shows how the foosball table is transformed into a working table.
- With reference to the figures, the foosball table according to the invention, generally designated by the
reference numeral 1, comprises four legs, each designated by thenumeral 2, for supporting aframe 3 having a sheetlike base 4, depicting a game field. - The
frame 3 also hasrods 5, bearingplayers 6, and being rotatable inside bushes 7 associated with theframe 3. - Two
resilient members 8 are provided at the opposite ends of each bush 7 and, during the sliding of the rods, have the function of damping possible shocks of the grip or of the end player against theframe 3. - Advantageously, the
resilient members 8 are molded with the bush 7 and, with the same bush, form a one piece body made of self-lubricating plastic material having associating means for its association with theframe 3. - In particular, in the case of snap together connection means, the connection means are generally designated by the
numeral 9 and can be formed by two resilient teeth 20 which are snapped inside and adaptedseat 21 formed on theframe 3. - According to a different embodiment, the connection means comprises
screws 22 which can be rapidly inserted by a 90° rotation. - These solutions provide a first important advantage.
- In fact, by inserting a bush on the rod, the two
resilient members 8 are also automatically inserted and work as a spring. - Then, when the two bushes 7, and the respective
resilient members 8, are inserted on a rod, the rod can be applied and fastened to theframe 3, in a very easy and rapid manner, by inserting associatingmeans 9 inside the respective seats provided at theframe 3. - The second important advantage derived from this solution is that, during the game, the
resilient members 8, working as springs, will always be associated with the bush 7, without annoyingly sliding along therod 5 as in the conventional foosballs tables. - It is also to be noted that, since the
resilient members 8 are made of self-lubricating plastic material, as the bush 7, they are not deteriorated after a certain time as it happens with the metallic springs of conventional foosball tables. - Once the bushes 7 have been associated with the
frame 3, anedge cover 10 is associated with theframe 3, above the bushes 7. Also theedge cover 10 is provided with connection means 9 defined by resilient teeth 20 or by fastinsert screws 22, as described above. - It is apparent, from the above description, that by an extremely easy and rapid operation it is possible to disassemble the
edge cover 10 and the bushes 7 from theframe 3, in order to vary the position of theplayers 6 in the field as desired. - In the same manner, in a preferred embodiment of the invention the sheetlike base 4 is provided in one piece with the
frame 3, however, the base could also be removably associated with theframe 3 by snap connection means adapted to engagerespective apertures 23 on theframe 3, in order to change the game field in a very short time, depending on the type of game to be played. - Furthermore, conveniently, the foosball table according to the invention comprises a cover member 11 removably associated with the
frame 3 for covering the game field 4, therods 5 and theplayers 6. - The cover member 11 has at least one raised portion and four
corner members 24 adapted to rest on theframe 3, for levelling the cover member 11 on the foosball table. - On the opposite side, with respect of the
corner members 24, the cover member has a surface defining a working table which conveniently has a transverse size substantially equal to the length of the rods in order to completely cover them preventing the rods from being of annoyance during the use of the working table. - For a more comfortable use of the foosball table when playing, or when used as a working table when the covering member 11 is applied, the
legs 2 may be easily extended by extension means defined, for example, by anextension 13. - The
extension 13 may in fact be applied to the end of eachleg 2, by introducing themale element 14 in a respective seat, or female element, 15, provided at the end of thelegs 2. - Advantageously, the
extension 13 is fixed to theleg 2 by a fixing member which may be constituted by aresilient tooth 30 which snaps inside aseat 31. - By this extremely easy and rapid application, the foosball table may be raised or lowered according to the height of the playing users, either adults or children, and when used as a working table.
- It is also to be noted that the foosball table is provided with different uniforms that can be put on the
players 6 for varying the playing teams. - It has been seen in practice that the foosball table according to the invention has the particular advantage of not having metallic connection elements and is therefore resistant to the weather elements and can be left outdoors.
- Furthermore, the foosball table may be raised or lowered according to the need and can be covered by a working table in order to be useful even when it is not used for the foosball game.
- The materials employed, as well as the dimensions, may be any according to the specific needs and the state of the art.
- Where technical features mentioned in any claim are followed by reference signs, those reference signs have been included for the sole purpose of increasing the intelligibility of the claims and accordingly, such reference signs do not have any limiting effect on the scope of each element identified by way of example by such reference signs.
