Abstract

The method involves serving balls one after another by a ball shooting machine to a training player in an area defined variable representing an action area of a player. The player shoots the served balls according to receiving of air directly in direction of a goal with an intention to reach the goal. The shot balls are collected from a goal net or an extensive ball catching net (5) that is provided perpendicular to a goal line. The shot balls are delivered to the ball shooting machine via a ball transporting channel (6) that runs to the ball shooting machine, for a new ball service. An independent claim is also included for a device for training the volley played goal kick according to the entry of corner balls and/or cross balls.

Description

The invention relates to a device with which volleyed shots can be trained.

State of the art

According to DE 199 03 454 A1 For example, a method and apparatus for inputting balls to a playing field is known. In this invention, when a ball has been played into the ball, it is intended to replace it with a new ball as quickly as possible in order to reduce the wanted or unwanted play delay. This is achieved by throwing a new ball onto the playing field from a spin device positioned outside the playing field, preferably in the corner area of the playing field. However, this disclosed solution does not intend to improve the player's shooting quality.

DE 203 18 493 U1 describes a football training device, which stands here representative of a variety of known devices with which a mechanical Ballzuspiel can be performed. All such devices have in common that only constructive training will be described with which a largely reproducible trajectory of the ball can be achieved.

However, a complex target shot training for practicing the volley-played direct goal from a standard situation is not described.

Out US 5,911,214 a soccer launcher is known, which is placed at a distance in front of the football goal, and the soccer balls scattered scattered into the box in which several players try to shoot the ball played on the goal or hang up a teammate. This training methodology does not allow concentrated solo training to practice volley-tested direct shots from set-pieces.

DE 296 17 403 U1 describes a training or game device for ball games in particular, in which the subject matter of the invention relates to a hit field display, which is formed by a measuring device arranged in the goal area.

By the in DE 35 22 919 According to the invention, the shooting technique of footballers is to be perfected by shooting the ball on a curved ball-reflecting wall, so that one can realize an infinitely large rebounding ball-and-track combination which is available to the ball-accepting footballer.

US 5,556,106 describes a training device and training method for footballers. The footballer tries to shoot the ball through one of many openings in the goal wall, from where the ball is returned by a transport device to the shooting point.

These publications enrich the state of the art without prejudging the patentability of the invention.

In Article 54 (3) Document EP 1 913 987 A2 A practice site for a ball sport is described, where the athletes shoot at goals. Behind the gates ball catching devices such as nets are arranged, with which missed balls are collected. All balls are collected via a funnel-like device and fed underground ball ejection points in the field or flank machines on the sidelines. About the flank machines, the balls are then shot again on the field, on the ball throwing balls returning balls are laid out directly to the player. This embodiment of a football field is not suitable for places on which a point game operation takes place, since in particular the ball ejection points are prohibited by the World Federation regulations. Even the funnel-shaped ball collection devices increase the risk of injury in point games and in training, even when they are lavishly covered. In addition, the flank machines impede game play or have to be dismantled with much effort.

The WO 2006/126976 A1 shows a system in which a plurality of ball shooting machines are arranged around the 16m space of a football field, these machines shoot balls in any order on the field. To collect the balls shot in the direction of the goal, a net placed behind the goal is used, whereby a wall erected between the goal and the net prevents the balls from rolling back onto the playing field. Each ball firing machine is assigned to an area in which the shot down balls are served. A disadvantage of the device is that complex construction measures are associated with the creation of the device. In particular, the rampart is not allowed in a point game mode, whereby the number of possible deployment sites of such a device as before should be limited to pure practice sites. Although the shooting of the balls of different ball shooting machines in different areas allows the training of several players at the same time, but obstructs the targeted performance increase in a single player, since only a small frequency of ball deliveries on the field successive shots on goal, or at an increased Frequency a variety of balls are fired almost simultaneously towards the goal, so that the players hinder each other.

Presentation of the invention

The object of the invention is to provide a device for the training of Torschusseliten in professional football, with the particular practicing the volley-playing shot goal after cornering of corner balls and / or flanked balls can be trained.

According to the invention, this object is achieved by a device according to claim 1.

The training of goal shots in football, in particular the training of a volleyed shot on goal cornering and / or flanked balls, is characterized in that the exercising player in a, the action area of the player performing area, which is located in front of the goal and from this is spaced from a pair each side of the gate arranged ball shooting machines successively balls are served.

The player shoots the served ball after acceptance from the air directly towards the goal, with the intention of scoring a goal.

The balls shot in the direction of goal are caught by a vertical large-area ball catch net erected on the goal line, behind the netless goal and supplied to the Ballschussmaschinen to the ball service again over a Balltransportrinne running to the ball firing machines.

The corresponding device is characterized in that it consists of an elongated box-shaped container consisting of a bottom, two side walls of appropriate length, two end walls with a corresponding cross-section and a pivotable about the upper edge of the rear side wall, the container closable lid exists.

The method according to the invention provides a methodology for intensive game training for the training of goal elite athletes in professional football. The volleyed goal is trained after cornering and flanking.

The goal of this training is to achieve absolute ball security in standard situations in front of the goal and the ability of individual players to volley direct hit.

The device is designed for the sole training of elite players, but also provides all the conditions for the combination training between player and goalkeeper. The device simulates the game-identical situation of the crossing of corner balls or flanks.

In a 3 sec. Clock two ball shooting machines serve balls alternately from the left or right imaginary edge of the field in the extended goal area. Due to the special design of the ball shooting machine, the trajectory, the range and the speed of the balls are constantly changing. It is only stipulated that each trajectory of an incoming ball ends within a circle of about 10 m in diameter, which determines the action area of the player. The center of this circle is about 20 meters in front of the gate.

The task of the exercising player, who is constantly within this action area, is to accept and direct the ball into the goal, without that ball getting in contact with the ground again. Depending on their position, the player has to decide whether to pass the ball head-on, by foot as a volley or as a back-pull into the goal. The most important goal of the training is that the player attempts to reach each served ball and directs it without touching the ground directly into the goal. The high shooting frequency of the ball shooting machines (3 sec.) And the constantly changing trajectory of the balls challenge the training player extreme physical willingness to perform.

The constant repetition of the classic corner kick or flanking the player, as in the real game, put into a high-stress situation in which he intensively trained all the necessary steps, up to the final shot on goal. These include "reading" the trajectory, running the ball with a simultaneous decision on the type of ball acceptance and ultimately the technical ability to make a precise shot on goal.

With the help of sensors, the number of served balls and the number of actual goal hits are measured and displayed on two electronic displays. The difference between the served balls and the goal hits allows both a picture of the training discipline of the player as well as his ability to precise shot on goal.

The continuation of the training method with different players allows a detailed analysis of the ability of the individual player and the individual effectiveness of the training method. A manipulation of the training results is not possible.

With the device is the first time a complex and efficient training device available, which allows a special elite training under high physical stress.

In the following, the device according to the invention will be described in its complexity. It presents itself as an elongate container 7 with a bottom 8, side walls 9, end walls 10 and a cover 11. The dimensions of the container in the exemplary embodiment are length 36.0 m, width 2.0 m, height 1.5 m. The container 7 is founded on a foundation at a depth of 1.5 m.

The device has an active and a passive functional position.

In the passive functional position, outside the training times, the device is in the folded state below the terrain line, whereby a visual perception and the adjustment of free areas is restricted.

The lid 11 of the container 7 forms the pivotable, weatherproof cover of the entire system.

To produce the active functional position for the training operation, the lid 11 is folded by means of hydraulics by almost 180 ° around the upper edge of the rear side wall 9 to the outside. Subsequently, hydraulically, two net tension posts 15 are erected, which span the ball net 5 in size 12.0 m high x 36.0 m wide. Thereafter, a gate 2 in original size (7.32 m x 2.44 m) is erected hydraulically, which is located centrally in front of the ball catching net 5. The side posts 13 are connected on the one hand with the bottom 8 of the container 7 on the other hand with the crossbar 14 so articulated that the door elements are folded in the manner of a Gelenkparallelogramms in the passive functional position in the container 7 and erected from the container 7 in the active functional position.

In the end regions of the container 7 is in each case a ball-shooting machine 3, the synchronous and alternately in 3 sec-clock balls 4 in Serve the area of action area 1. The firing range is variable 20 m to 30 m.

Below the terrain line runs on the bottom 8 of the container 7 in front of the ball catchment 5 a ball transport trough 6 all balls 4, the ball catch net 5 or the goal frame reach collects and transported back to the ball shooting machines 3. For this purpose, the ball transport trough 6 extends from the center of the container 7 to the ends of the container 7 and thus to the ball guides of the ball-shot machines 3 from a raised center inclined downward to cause the balls 4 due to gravity rolling in the direction of the ball-shooting machines 3.

Between the side posts 13 of the gate 2 moves horizontally on a worm shaft a stylized goalkeeper 18 of about 2.0 m in height. By moving on the goal line he represents for the training player a constantly changing and always to be considered obstacle.

For training with a real goalkeeper, the stylized goalkeeper is designed removable.

The total number of balls delivered by the ball shooting machines within a training session and the goals scored are displayed on two independent illuminated panels. The performance of a player becomes measurable.

After completion of the training, the net tensioning posts 15 including the ball catching net 5, the goal 2 and the stylized goalkeeper 18 are automatically lowered via the radio signal and the entire system is closed with the cover 11.
