Definitions

  • the invention relates to a miniature racing course for model car racing games, or more precisely racing courses for toy cars with boxes or garages for cars, which are activated automatically against advance payment and where the interim and end results of the race are evident from the information board.
  • US-A-3,970,309 discloses a racing course for home use.
  • the racing course comprises two parallel oval racing lanes connected by a switching section controlled pneumatically by bellows as well as a counting and recording station counting mechanically the number of times a model car has passed the counting and recording station.
  • the inner racing lane has two "pit-stop" recharging stations comprising equipment for recharging a storage cell within the model car.
  • the recharging stations also comprise manually operatable switching means for diverting a model car from the racing course into the recharging area and for freeing the model car to move outwardly from the recharging area to re-enter the racing course.
  • the problem which is solved by this invention is the construction of such a miniature racing course which will allow its use primarily in public places, gambling casinos and other premises against advance payment.
  • the whole construction of the miniature racing course according to the invention is compact and simple and allows garaging of remotely controlled model cars and a simultaneous visual and sound monitoring of the race, of intermediate results as well as of final results of model cars or competitors on a special information board.
  • the miniature racing course of the invention suits the conditions of the usage in public places against advance payment; which would allow the race of one, two, three or more model cars; which would furthermore allow the garaging of model cars in safe parking boxes as well as giving regular and exact information on the situation on the course during and after the race; and which performs accurate measuring of the time spent and the circles covered, which mechanical measuring instruments do not allow.
  • the parking box for safe parking of the model cars is provided for on the side lane or on the racing course itself and can be activated by means of an automatic activating device against advance payment.
  • the speed and the number of circles covered are measured by measuring instruments, intermediate and final results are visible on a separate information board.
  • the miniature racing course is constituted by a racing course 1, a side lane 2, an automatic activating device 8 and an information board 9.
  • the racing course 1 comprises one, two, three, or more racing lanes 4, with one model car 6 on each, at least two pairs of optical measuring instruments 7 and at least two, three or more remote controls 10, the number of which equals the number of the racing lanes 4.
  • the side lane 2 comprises two, three or more side tracks 5.
  • the side lane 2 has the same number of side tracks 5 as the racing course 1 has racing lanes 4. It is furthermore constituted by a parking box 3 for parking model cars 6.
  • Fig. 1 demonstrates a example of operation of a miniature racing course where there is along the racing course 1 in the same level a side lane 2, which has side tracks 5 linked or connected with corresponding racing lanes 4 on the racing course 1.
  • the side lane 2 can be on or along whatever part of the racing course 1 depending on its design.
  • the miniature racing course is connected with the automatic activating device 8 in such a way that the device is linked to or with the parking box 3 on the side lane 2.
  • the automatic activating device 8 can be linked to or with the racing course 1 in which case the automatic activating device 8 is constructed in such a way that it can be activated only after previous payment either with coins, tokens, payment cards and similar, which is not separately demonstrated in picture 1.
  • the racing course 1 is connected with the information board 9, which is placed above or next to the course in a conspicuous place.
  • the information board 9 can be constructed in the analogue or digital form and shows intermediate as well as final results of measurings of optical measuring instruments 7.
  • Fig. 2 shows an example of operation of a parking box 3, placed on the side lane 2, as is evident from fig. 1.
  • the parking box 3 is in this example of operation constructed from a safety housing 15 which is made up of a roof and of two side and front walls of optional shapes which are not described and depicted herein.
  • a safety housing 15 which is made up of a roof and of two side and front walls of optional shapes which are not described and depicted herein.
  • In one front wall single lifting entrance door 16 is constructed and in the opposite front wall single exit door 17 is constructed. Both doors are being opened by rotating them outwards round the hinge 11, each in the opposite direction.
  • the door 16,17 can also be opened inwards or in a combined manner and can in another example of operation be constructed as vertically lifting or vertically dropping.
  • the parking box 3 is made of a transparent material so that model cars 6 parked in it are visible. In a different example of operation the parking box 3 can also be made of a non-transparent material.
  • the parking box 3 for parking model cars 6 is shown which is placed in the system of the racing course 1.
  • the parking box can in the same way be placed in the system of the side lane 2.
  • the parking box 3 is constructed of two complexes.
  • the first complex is made up of a roof safety housing 14 which is placed above the racing course 1 and can be constructed without or with doors 16,17 which are shown in picture 2 and have previously been described.
  • the second complex is made up of a supporting safety bottom 12 which is placed below the racing course 1 and is inaccessibly closed from all sides.
  • the racing course 1 In the area inside the parking box 3 is according to the second example of operation the racing course 1 together with the racing lanes 4 constructed separably in the transverse direction in such a manner that it can be with the help of two hinges 11 and in two dropping parts 1' dropped downwards into the supporting safety bottom 12.
  • Each end of the dropping parts 1'. is frontally put on each front end of the track section 13 which is fixed to the inner wall of the supporting bottom 12.
  • the automatic activating device 8 activates the miniature racing course according to one of the previously described methods and hooks it up to the electric power.
  • After a certain signal competitors start the model cars 6 with the help of remote controls 10 along the racing lanes 4 on the racing course 1 and regulate their speed with the remote controls. If it is necessary model cars 6 can in the bends of the racing course 1 be secured from dropping out of the racing lane 4, with a special safety device which is not depicted neither described.
  • Optical measuring instruments 7 installed at the start and the finish measure accurately the speed of individual model cars 6, their average speed in the race, the number of circles covered in the race and the time spent in each circle and the total time spent after the race is finished. Intermediate results achieved can constantly be monitored by the competitors on an information board 9 of an analogue or digital form on which the final results are shown at the end of the race as well as the order individual model cars 6 have reached in the race.
  • the race is finished model cars 6 drive into the parking box 3 and the miniature racing course is ready for a new race.
  • the previously described embodiment of the racing course allows the use in public places because its functioning is completely automated and a theft of its constituent parts is practically impossible without the use of physical power.
  • the supervision of a public gambling place in which there is a larger number of miniature racing courses is simple and cheap. With this racing course races at all levels are possible.
