Definitions
- Game and sports equipment are known in many different versions.
- the invention has the task of a game u. To create sports equipment that gives the user the opportunity to play and exercise in a confined space without endangering himself or others.
- Sports equipment consists of an elastic, preferably ball-shaped impact body, which by means of a distance u.
- Pull cord is connected to a bracket, which in turn is attached to a momentum such as the foot of the type that the distance u.
- Pull cord is guided in a deflection and sliding element located on the holder, for example a ring, an eyelet or in a channel 1; or is attached to this sliding element, the distance-u. fixed to the impact body and passed through the sliding element.
- Pull cord has a handle or at the other end. Stop zone.
- the sliding element can be attached directly to a shoe; or be present on this, for example in the sole or upper shoe area.
- the distance u If the swing is correct, the distance u. Drawstring tightened so that the impact body moves in a circular path, or approximate circular path. Due to the elasticity of the impact body, the impact body is always reversed in its direction upon impact. By guiding (giving way or pulling) on the distance u. The radius of the circular path is changed accordingly.
- Drawstrings are particularly many game variations possible, which, depending on the intensity of the game operation, place more or less great demands on skill and sporting activity, and on the condition of the player.
- the distance u To provide pull cord with a holding zone or a handle, which offers the possibility of the distance u. Pull cord up and down. This can also happen automatically e.g. in which a winding roller fastened in or on the handle is pretensioned with a twisted rubber and the distance u. Pull cord is unrolled.
- Another possible embodiment is e.g. that a stick, a sleeve or a tube is provided as a momentum, on which the distance u. Pull cord attached or passed through.
- the impact body on both sides with a distance u.
- the impact body can be fixed firmly or slidably.
- Sports facilities are also intended to add target plates or discs to the game, which must then be hit by the impact body when playing.
- These target plates can have acoustic and / or optical and / or adhesive properties, so that, for example, the target plate adheres to the impact body when the impact body impacts or a sound is generated.
- the target object can also be designed as a self-adhesive tail.
- the impact body itself emits acoustic signals and or has a light source.
- Another embodiment is the game u.
- Equip sports equipment with a counter. The counting impulses can be transmitted to the counter mechanically or without contact, for example by the movement of the impact body or by the movement of the pulling train.
- Pull cord can be of the type that the impact body has a fastening groove and by a from the distance u. Pull cord formed outer loop is held, or that the impact body by an inner or outer attachment with the distance u. Pull cord is connected or, for example, the impact body is in a mesh-like grid and this with the distance u. Pull cord connected.
- FIG. 1 shows a simplified representation of a possible embodiment of the game u. Sports equipment in play.
- the pull cord (2) has a handle (8,9) with a winding device.
- the sliding u. Deflection element (6) is attached to the holder (4).
- the bracket itself is in turn attached to the protective device (3), in this case on the shoe, or on the foot.
- the impact body in the outer radius is at
- the player can pull the distance u.
- Towing line (2) the distance between the impact body (1) and the sliding u. Change the deflection element (6).
- adjustable holder (4) which has a closure (5) preferably Velcro.
- the bracket (4) has a swivel (7) on which a laterally open sliding u. Deflection element (6) is present, through which the distance u. Pull cord (2) is guided.
- FIG. 1 shows a possible variant of the execution of the game and sports device in game mode.
- a hollow rod with a handle (8) as a holder (4) and as a swing sensor (3) shown The distance u.
- the pull cord (2) is guided through this rod or at the same time the momentum generator (3).
- Drawstring (2) is the impact body (1) and at the other end an opening and closing. Unwinding device (9) shown.
- the swing sensor (3) is moved by hand.
- the different radii show the impact body (1) on different trajectories with a shortened or extended distance u.
- FIG. 1 shows an impact body (1) on its trajectory, consisting of a normal ball e.g. Tennis ball, which is located in a net structure (10), which with the distance u. Pull cord (2) is connected.
- a normal ball e.g. Tennis ball
- a net structure (10) which with the distance u. Pull cord (2) is connected.
- FIG. 1 shows a, as an elongated hollow body, sliding u.umlenkelement (6), which is releasably connected to a shoe by means of double bracket (4); or is firmly attached to the shoe.
- the elongated sliding u. Deflection element (6) has at its ends a thickening in the material in order to avoid the friction caused by the distance-u. Pull cord to withstand.
- FIG. 1 shows a possible embodiment of a holder (11) for the impact body (1) and for the distance u.
- Cord (2) The impact body (1) is pressed or jammed in the holder. The distance u.
- the pull cord (2) is wound up and can be fixed at any distance.
- the bracket (4) after winding the distance u. Pull cord on the holder for the cord (9) also stretched. (Not shown in the drawing).
- FIG. 1 shows a side view of another possible embodiment of a holder (11) which receives the impact body (1) and the holder (9) of the pull cord (2).
- the holder (11) has a fastening element (12) which e.g. is hung on a belt.
- FIG. 13 shows seen from the front
- Sliding and deflecting element (6) can be actuated.
- the impact body (1) has Velcro and. Adhesive elements that connect and are picked up when impacted with the adhesive elements lying on the floor.
- Deflection element (6) leads under the foot of the player, so that the distance -u.
- Drawstring moves under the user's foot.
