Definitions

  • the invention relates to a game and sports device, consisting of a ball-shaped body made of elastic Material with an integrated built-in Circuit for recording its flight and fall behavior.
  • the device is for use in closed rooms, but also suitable for outdoor use and for use by children and teenagers as well also provided by adults. It is meant to be the user - individually or in a group - to playful and motivate sporting activities. Besides that is Can be used under conditions similar to competitions.
  • Such rubber balls are already known in which stored light and sound sequences can be emitted when pressure is exerted by means of built-in electronic circuits.
  • DE-GM 295 20 127 U1 describes a ball body made of a deformable plastic that is permanently joined together from two half shells and contains a permanently installed circuit with memory chip and digital / analog converter in one of the two half shells.
  • a signal sequence stored in the memory chip is fed to a piezoelectric transducer and an acoustic signal is thereby triggered.
  • the exemplary embodiments described there are only intended for use in joke articles and are not suitable for other purposes.
  • the object of the invention to create a ball-shaped body which, when used as a game and sports device, can also determine values of the current flight and falling behavior for the user.
  • the game device should be robust against mechanical loads and environmental influences and inexpensive to manufacture. By displaying reliable values for the parameters to be determined in each case, a realistic performance evaluation for the users should be possible, such as is a necessary prerequisite for comparisons similar to competitions.
  • the task of a ball-shaped Body with inserted and from mechanical damage largely protected temperature and / or light and / or pressure sensitive and / or inductive Sensor elements for detecting parameters of the Flight and falling behavior of the ball body, with integrated electronic circuits including one Computer unit for processing the electrical sensor signals, an optical and / or acoustic representation the measured values determined, such as the frequency of the ball hit, the impact pressure and the jump height, or with a transmitter to transmit these parameters an external processor-controlled display device, and solved with a power supply unit.
  • the ball body should consist of optically transparent material, at least in the display area.
  • a numerical or alphanumeric display with LED or LCD components will expediently be used as the optical display device.
  • the parameters determined can also be displayed with an external display device which is controlled by radio or infrared light.
  • the power supply unit is a battery which is firmly cast into the ball body and can be inductively charged.
  • the integrated circuit can also be supplied with power using solar cells which are embedded in the ball.
  • Another expedient variant of the solution according to the invention uses piezoelectric components for converting the kinetic energy of the ball body into the electrical supply voltage for the power supply.
  • an integrated circuit with a timer circuit, the timer causing the power supply unit to be switched off after a predefined time after the last actuation of the ball body.
  • a ball body 1 shown in FIG. 1 with a diameter of approx. 40 to 120 mm consists of optically transparent or colored rubber material.
  • a circuit board 2 with sensors 3, which are sensitive to vibrations and / or pressure, and integrated circuits 4 with a computer unit for processing the electrical signals of the sensor elements are cast into the material of the ball body.
  • circuits for example, application-specific ASIC circuits can be used which are adapted to the special requirements in the determination of the measured variables, such as the number of impacts, jump height, etc. or the determination of a random number between 1 and 6 and their numerical display in a display device 5 and in this additional circuits such as timer and counter circuits, random generator, etc. are integrated.
  • the counting circuit for counting the ball hits and the random generator for a ball game comparable to the dice are required.
  • the jump height can be determined with the aid of the timer circuit from the determination of the time between two ball hits on the ground.
  • the essential functional elements of the electrical circuit can be seen in FIG.
  • the LED or LCD display device 5 is usually designed as a numerical display in several digits. However, an acoustic signal output is also possible through the optional installation of speech modules (loudspeakers or piezophones).
  • a switch 8 is actuated with the aid of a pin 7 for switching on and off a power supply unit 9 (battery or battery) for the electrical circuit. The pen is then removed before the game starts.
  • While the switching on of the circuit can also be triggered by the touch sensor, it can be switched off by means of a timer circuit within a predetermined period of time after the vibration sensor has responded for the last time.
  • Another hole 10 is provided for replacing the power supply unit, which in turn is kept firmly closed with a rubber stopper 11.
