Description

Spielarena game Arena
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Spielarena für Ballspiele, insbesondere für fußballähnliche Ballspiele.The invention relates to a playing arena for ball games, especially for football-like ball games.
Ballspiele, wie beispielsweise Fußball werden üblicherweise auf einem ebenen Spielfeld gespielt. Das Spielfeld kann dabei im Freien liegen oder in einer Halle untergebracht sein. Üblicherweise ist der Spielfeldrand durch eine Linie markiert, die die Grenzen des Spielfeldes angibt, innerhalb derer sich das Spiel abzuspielen hat. Auf dem Spielfeld spielen bei vielen Spielarten zwei Mannschaften gegeneinander und versuchen beispielsweise einen Ball in ein Tor einer gegneri- sehen Mannschaft zu befördern, um auf diese Weise Punkte zu erlangen. Die Regeln und damit der Spielablauf sind so vielfältig wie die Spielarten. Populäre Spielarten sind beispielsweise Fußball oder Handball, aber auch Hockey.Ball games, such as football, are usually played on a level playing field. The field can be outdoors or housed in a hall. Usually, the edge of the field is marked by a line indicating the limits of the playing field within which the game has to play. On the pitch many teams play against each other and try, for example, to throw a ball into the goal of an opposing team in order to score points. The rules and the gameplay are as varied as the game types. Popular games include football or handball, but also hockey.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, trotz der Vielzahl bekannter Spielarten eine neue Spielart zu ermöglichen, die neue Reize, sowohl für die Spieler als auch für die Zuschauer bietet. Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, dass für neue Spielarten zunächst eine neue Spielarena geschaffen wird, die es erlaubt, einen Ball nicht nur auf einem ebenen Spielfeld zu spielen, sondern auf einem Gesamtspielfeld, das ein ebenes Spielfeld und eine das ebene Spielfeld umschließende Umhüllung mit einschließt. Für einen im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes runden Spielfluss im Falle von Ballspielen sind sämtliche Quer- und Längsschnitte der Umhüllung runde geometrische Formen ohne Ecken. Auch der Übergang zwischen dem ebenen Spielfeld und der Umhüllung ist erfindungsgemäß nach Art einer überhöhten Kurve ausgerundet.The invention has for its object, despite the variety of known varieties to allow a new game that offers new stimuli, both for the players and for the audience. According to the invention this object is achieved in that for new types of game first a new playing arena is created, which allows to play a ball not only on a flat playing field, but on a total playing field, which includes a flat playing field and the flat field enclosing enclosure includes. For a literally round game flow in the case of ball games are all transverse and longitudinal sections of the envelope round geometric shapes without corners. The transition between the flat playing field and the envelope is rounded according to the invention in the manner of an excessive curve.
Auf diese Weise kann ein Ball nicht nur auf einem ebenen Spielfeld oder inner- halb der Grenzen des ebenen Spielfeldes in der Luft gespielt werden, sondern auch über die Umhüllung des Spielfeldes, so dass es praktisch kein „Aus" für den Ball mehr gibt und das Gesamtspielfeld quasi unendlich ist. Vorzugsweise besitzt die Umhüllung sowohl in Längs- als auch in Querrichtung Querschnitte, die Ellipsenform haben und dort, wo die Querschnitte das ebene Spielfeld schneiden, abgeflacht sind. Weiter bevorzugt ist es, wenn sämtliche Längsachsen der ellipsenförmigen Querschnitte in einer gemeinsamen Ebene oberhalb des Spielfeldes verlaufen. Die Umhüllung hat in der bevorzugten Ausführungsvariante also die Form eines Ellipsoids, welches auf seiner Unterseite abgeflacht ist und dessen größte Querschnittsfläche in einer Parallelebene zum ebenen Spielfeld oberhalb des Spielfeldes verläuft.In this way a ball can be played in the air not only on a level playing field or within the limits of the plane playing field, but also on the covering of the playing field, so that there is practically no "ball" off and that Total playing field is virtually infinite. Preferably, the wrapper has both longitudinal and transverse cross-sections that are elliptical in shape and flattened where the cross-sections intersect the planar playfield. It is further preferred if all the longitudinal axes of the elliptical cross sections extend in a common plane above the playing field. Thus, in the preferred embodiment, the envelope has the shape of an ellipsoid, which is flattened on its underside and whose largest cross-sectional area extends in a parallel plane to the level playing field above the playing field.
Auf dem ebenen Spielfeld selbst sind vorzugsweise zwei Tore angeordnet, und zwar auf der Längsachse des Spielfeldes, in der Nähe jeweils eines Brennpunktes einer das Spielfeld umrankenden Ellipse. Da die Umhüllung vorzugsweise ein Ellipsoid ist, ergibt es sich zwangsläufig, dass das auf der Unterseite abgeflachte Ellipsoid ein Spielfeld einschließt, welches - abgesehen von der nach Art einer überhöhten Kurve vorgesehenen Ausrundung des Spielfeldrandes - einen ellipti- sehen Umriss hat. Dementsprechend können dem Spielfeld zwei Brennpunkte der Ellipse zugeordnet werden, in deren Nähe sich in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsvariante der Erfindung die Tore befinden. Diese Anordnung der Tore bietet den Reiz, dass ein über die Spielfeldumrandung gespielter Ball in der Nähe des jeweiligen anderen Brennpunktes der Ellipse landet, wenn er in der Nähe eines ersten Brennpunktes abgespielt wird. Der Ball kann also auf vielfältige Art und Weise von Tor zu Tor gespielt werden und nicht nur auf der direkten Linie. Entsprechend ist es besonders bevorzugt, wenn die Torlinie eines jeweiligen Tores genau den jeweiligen Brennpunkt der einen Umriss des Spielfeldes bildenden Ellipse schneidet.Two goals are preferably arranged on the flat playing field itself, specifically on the longitudinal axis of the playing field, in the vicinity of a respective focal point of an ellipse surrounding the playing field. Since the envelope is preferably an ellipsoid, it necessarily follows that the ellipsoid flattened on the underside encloses a playing field which-apart from the rounding-off of the playing field edge provided in the manner of an excessive curve-has an elliptical contour. Accordingly, two foci of the ellipse can be assigned to the playing field, in the vicinity of which the gates are located in a preferred embodiment of the invention. This arrangement of goals offers the attraction that a ball played over the field edge lands near the other focal point of the ellipse when played near a first focal point. So the ball can be played from goal to goal in a variety of ways, not just on the line. Accordingly, it is particularly preferred if the goal line of a respective gate exactly intersects the respective focal point of an ellipse forming an outline of the playing field.
Um gleichzeitig eine Belichtung des Spielfeldes zu erzielen und Zuschauem den Einblick in die Spielarena zu ermöglichen, ist die Umhüllung vorzugsweise wei- testgehend transparent ausgeführt und wird in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform von einem Strebengerüst gebildet, welches beispielsweise aus Stahl bestehen kann, wobei die Freiräume zwischen den Streben mit Hilfe durchsichtiger Paneele geschlossen sind. Diese durchsichtigen Paneele können beispielsweise aus entsprechend der Ellipsoidform geformten Plexiglas- oder Sicherheitsglaselementen bestehen.In order to achieve an exposure of the playing field at the same time and to allow spectators to see the playing arena, the wrapping is preferably made largely transparent and is formed in a preferred embodiment of a strut framework, which may for example consist of steel, the free spaces between the Struts are closed by means of transparent panels. These transparent panels can, for example consist of plexiglass or safety glass elements shaped according to the ellipsoidal shape.
Um eine Belüftung des Innenraums der Umhüllung zu ermöglichen, ist an der Oberseite der Umhüllung vorzugsweise eine zentrale Öffnung vorgesehen, die ebenfalls einen elliptischen Querschnitt aufweist.In order to allow ventilation of the interior of the enclosure, a central opening is preferably provided at the top of the enclosure, which also has an elliptical cross-section.
In weiteren Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung kann das Strebengerüst der Umhüllung von Streben gebildet sein, die sich in Bezug auf die Aufsicht der Spielarena in radialer Richtung erstrecken und im Quer- bzw. Längsschnitt die Form von Ellipsenabschnitten haben. Die jeweiligen Streben erstrecken sich dabei in einer senkrecht auf dem Spielfeld stehenden Richtung und werden durch in verschiedenen Parallelebenen zum ebenen Spielfeld verlaufenden Streben mit Ellipsenform miteinander verbunden.In further embodiments of the invention, the strut framework of the enclosure may be formed by struts which extend in the radial direction with respect to the view of the playing arena and have the shape of elliptical sections in transverse or longitudinal section. The respective struts extend in a direction perpendicular to the field and are connected by running in different parallel planes to the flat field struts with elliptical shape.
Weitere bevorzugte Ausführungsvarianten der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung eines bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels.Further preferred embodiments of the invention will become apparent from the following description of a preferred embodiment.
Die Erfindung soll nun anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles der Spielarena mit Bezug auf die Zeichnungen näher erläutert werden. Von den Zeichnungen zeigen:The invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to an exemplary embodiment of the game arena with reference to the drawings. From the drawings show:

In Figur 1 ist die Grundform einer Umhüllung 20 der Spielarena 10 perspektivisch dargestellt. Sowohl die vertikalen Querschnitte als auch die horizontalen Querschnitte weisen jeweils eine EUipsenform auf. Die Umhüllung 20 hat eine größte Höhe von 12 m, eine größte Breite von 16,2 m und eine größte Länge von 27 m.In Figure 1, the basic shape of a sheath 20 of the playing arena 10 is shown in perspective. Both the vertical cross-sections and the horizontal cross-sections each have an EU-elliptical shape. The envelope 20 has a maximum height of 12 m, a maximum width of 16.2 m and a maximum length of 27 m.
In Figur 2 ist die Draufsicht der Spielarena 10 dargestellt. Innerhalb der Spielare- na 10 befindet sich ein horizontal ausgerichtetes eben gestaltetes Spielfeld 30. Das Spielfeld 30 ist, wie die Umhüllung 20 selbst, ellipsenförmig gestaltet und besitzt dementsprechend eine zentrale Längsachse, die die Hauptachse der das Spielfeld umrandenden Ellipse ist. Die Querschnitte der Umhüllung 20 sind sowohl in Quer- als auch in Längsrichtung Ellipsen, die dort, wo sie das Spielfeld 30 schneiden, abgeflacht sind.In Figure 2, the top view of the game arena 10 is shown. The playing field 30, like the envelope 20 itself, is designed in the shape of an ellipse and accordingly has a central longitudinal axis, which is the main axis of the ellipse surrounding the playing field. The cross sections of the enclosure 20 are ellipses in both the transverse and longitudinal directions, which are flattened where they intersect the playing field 30.
Der Übergang zwischen dem Spielfeldrand 32 des ebenen Spielfeldes 30 und der Umhüllung 20 ist nach Art einer Velokurve 34 - also nach Art einer überhöhten Kurve, wie sie beispielsweise für 6-Tage Rennen verwendet wird - ausgerundet; siehe insbesondere Figur 6. Die Velokurve 34 umfasst das gesamte ebene Spielfeld 30 derart, dass die Innenflächen der Spielarena 10, zu denen auch das Spielfeld selbst und die Umhüllung zählen, insbesondere auch im Bereich des Übergangs vom ebenen Spielfeld 30 zur Umhüllung 20 keine Ecken aufweist. Dadurch ist ein reibungsloser Übergang vom ebenen Spielfeld 30 zur Umhüllung 20 hergestellt, der es erlaubt, einen Ball über die gesamte Innenfläche der Spiel- arena 10 zu spielen, die damit zu einem Gesamtspielfeld wird. Somit ist die Umhüllung 20 in Verbindung mit der Velokurve 34 als Fortsetzung des ebenen Spielfeldes 30 nutzbar. Die Ausdehnung des ebenen Spielfeldes 30 innerhalb der Spielarena beträgt in der Länge 24 m und in der Breite 14 m. Der Spielfeldmittelpunkt ist durch eine Mittelpunktmarkierung 40 markiert. Auf dem Spielfeld 30 befinden sich weitere Spielfeldmarkierungen 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 in Form von fünf Kreisen und 46 in Form einer Linie, die wie folgt auf dem Spielfeld 30 angeordnet sind, siehe insbesondre Figur 8:The transition between the playing field edge 32 of the flat playing field 30 and the wrapping 20 is in the manner of a Velokurve 34 - ie in the manner of an excessive curve, as used for example for 6-day race - rounded; see in particular Figure 6. The Velocurve 34 includes the entire flat field 30 such that the inner surfaces of the game arena 10, including the field itself and the enclosure count, especially in the transition area from the flat field 30 to the enclosure 20 has no corners , This produces a smooth transition from the flat playing field 30 to the wrapping 20, which allows a ball to be played over the entire inner surface of the playing arena 10, thus becoming a total playing field. Thus, the wrapper 20 in conjunction with the Velocurve 34 can be used as a continuation of the flat playing field 30. The extent of the flat playing field 30 within the playing arena is 24 m in length and 14 m in width. The playing field center is marked by a center mark 40. On the playing field 30 there are further field markings 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 in the form of five circles and 46 in the form of a line which are arranged on the playing field 30 as follows, see in particular FIG. 8:
Der Spielfeldmittelpunkt 40 ist gleichzeitig der Mittelpunkt des ersten Kreises 41 mit einem Radius von 1,8 m. Die Mittelpunkte der anderen vier Kreise 41, 42, 44 und 45 befinden sich ebenfalls auf der Längsachse des Spielfeldes 30. Vom Spielfeldmittelpunkt 40 entlang der Spielfeldlängsachse in beide Richtungen zum Spielfeldrand 32 hin gesehen sind die Kreise 41 und 42 angeordnet, deren Kreismittelpunkte jeweils einen Abstand von etwa 7,8 m zum Spielfeldmittelpunkt 40 hin aufweisen. Die beiden Kreise 42, 43 besitzen wie der mittlere Kreis 41 einen Radius von 1,8 m. Weiter außen auf der Spielfeldlängsachse sind die Kreise 44 und 45 angeordnet, deren Kreismittelpunkte jeweils einen Abstand von 9 m zum Spielfeldmittelpunkt 40 haben. Die beiden Kreise 44 und 45 besitzen jeweils einen Radius von 3 m. Sie sind so angeordnet, dass sie jeweils die vorhergehenden Kreise 42, 43 so einschließen, dass sich sowohl der kleinere 42, 43 als auch der größere Kreis 44, 45 Richtung Spielfeldmitte 40 auf der Längsachse und der größere Kreis 44, 45 Richtung Spielfeldrand 32 auf der Längsachse den Spielfeldrand 32 der Spielfeldebene 30 berühren. Eine Spielfeldlinie 46 teilt das ebene Spielfeld 30 quer zur Spielfeldlängsachse und führt durch den Spielfeldmittelpunkt 40.The playing field center 40 is at the same time the center of the first circle 41 with a radius of 1.8 m. The centers of the other four circles 41, 42, 44 and 45 are also located on the longitudinal axis of the playing field 30. Seen from the playing field center 40 along the playing field longitudinal axis in both directions to the playing field edge 32, the circles 41 and 42 are arranged, the circle centers each a distance from about 7.8 m to the center of the game field 40 out. The two circles 42, 43 have like the middle circle 41 has a radius of 1.8 m. Farther out on the pitch longitudinal axis, the circles 44 and 45 are arranged, the circle centers each have a distance of 9 m to the playing field center 40. The two circles 44 and 45 each have a radius of 3 m. They are arranged so that they each include the preceding circles 42, 43 so that both the smaller 42, 43 and the larger circle 44, 45 direction midfield 40 on the longitudinal axis and the larger circle 44, 45 direction of the edge of the field 32 the longitudinal axis of the playing field edge 32 of the game field plane 30 touch. A playing field line 46 divides the flat playing field 30 transversely to the playing field longitudinal axis and leads through the playing field center 40.

Die Tore 50, 52 weisen eine Höhe von 2 m und eine Breite von 3,5 m auf. Beide ToreCircle 42, 43 towards the edge of the field 32 is located. The respective door opening or gate line thus extends transversely to the longitudinal axis of the playing field 30. The gates 50, 52 have a height of 2 m and a width of 3.5 m. Both goals
50, 52 weisen jeweils einen Torrahmen mit senkrecht stehenden Torpfosten und eine Querlatte auf, die die oberen beiden Torpfosten verbindet. An dem Torrahmen ist ein Netz 54, 56 so befestigt, dass das Tor zur Spielfeldmitte 40 hin offen ist. Dieses Netz 54, 56 (siehe Figur 4) dient zum Auffangen des Spielballes, den ein Spieler in das Tor 50, 52 spielt.50, 52 each have a goal frame with vertical goal posts and a crossbar that connects the top two goalposts. A net 54, 56 is attached to the goal frame so that the gate is open towards the center of the playing field 40. This net 54, 56 (see FIG. 4) serves to catch the game ball which a player plays in the goal 50, 52.
Figur 3 zeigt eine Stirnansicht der Spielarena 10. Die Spielfeldfläche 30 ist eben und horizontal innerhalb der Spielarena 10 in einer Höhe von 3,3 m, vom gedachten Fußpunkt der vertikalen Ellipse aus gesehen, angeordnet. Das Spielfeld 30 kann baulich je nach Ausführungsvariante auch ebenerdig angeordnet sein kann. In Figur 3 ist der Spielfeldrand 32 nicht sichtbar, allerdings ist die Velokurve 34 von außen erkennbar, die den Übergang vom ebenen Spielfeld 30 (ebenfalls nicht sichtbar) zur Umhüllung 20 ausrundet, wie bereits zu Figur 2 beschrieben. Oberhalb der Velokurve 34 ist die Umhüllung 20 transparent gestaltet, um Zuschauern die Möglichkeit zu geben, das Geschehen auf dem Spielfeld 30 zu beobachten. Auf dem Spielfeld 30 ist mittig ein Tor 50, 52 aufgestellt, das die Abmessungen aufweist, die in der Beschreibung zu Figur 2 genannt sind.FIG. 3 shows an end view of the playing arena 10. The playing field surface 30 is arranged flat and horizontal within the playing arena 10 at a height of 3.3 m, as seen from the imaginary foot point of the vertical ellipse. The playing field 30 can structurally also be arranged at ground level, depending on the variant embodiment. In Figure 3, the playing field edge 32 is not visible, however, the Velocurve 34 is visible from the outside, which rounds the transition from the flat playing field 30 (also not visible) to the enclosure 20, as already described for Figure 2. Above the Velocurve 34, the enclosure 20 is made transparent to allow viewers to watch the action on the playing field 30. On the playing field 30, a goal 50, 52 is placed in the center, which has the dimensions which are mentioned in the description of Figure 2.
In Figur 4 ist die Seitenansicht der Spielarena 10 dargestellt. Auf dem Spielfeld 30 sind die beiden Tore 50, 52 angeordnet, wie bereits in Bezug auf Figur 2 beschrieben. Das Spielfeld 30 ist für ein Spiel mit vier bis sechs Spieler ausgelegt, die um einen Ball spielen.In Figure 4, the side view of the playing arena 10 is shown. On the playing field 30, the two gates 50, 52 are arranged, as already described with reference to FIG. The game field 30 is designed for a game with four to six players playing for a ball.
Figur 5 zeigt eine perspektivische Außenansicht der Spielarena 10, die durch eine transparent gestaltete Umhüllung 20 einen Blick nach innen erlaubt. Innerhalb der Spielarena 10 ist das ebene Spielfeld 30 zu erkennen, wie es mit Bezug auf Figur 2 beschrieben ist. Wie bereits ausgeführt, ist die Umhüllung 20 der Spielarena 10 ist oberhalb des Spielfeldes 30 so gestaltet, dass diese ebenfalls mit einem Ball bespielbar ist und betreten werden kann und somit Teil des Gesamtspielfeldes ist, d.h., das Gesamtspielfeld schließt das oben beschriebene ebene Spielfeld 30, die Velokurve 34 und der Umhüllung 20 oberhalb des Spielfeldrandes 32 des ebenen Spielfeldes 30 ein, wobei die Velokurve 34 einen reibungslosen Übergang vom ebenen Spielfeld 30 zur Umhüllung 20 bildet. Des Weiteren weist die Umhüllung 20 um ihren höchsten Punkt eine Öffnung 60 auf. Diese ist ebenfalls elliptisch geformt und dient der Belüftung, der Beleuchtung und der Bildaufnahme mittels TV-Kameras des von der Umhüllung 20 eingeschlossenen Innenraumes.FIG. 5 shows a perspective external view of the gaming arena 10, which allows a view inwards through a transparent envelope 20. Within the game arena 10, the planar game field 30 can be seen, as described with reference to Figure 2. As already stated, the envelope 20 of the gaming arena 10 is designed above the playing field 30 such that it can also be played with a ball and can be entered and is thus part of the overall playing field, ie the overall playing field includes the flat playing field 30 described above. the Velocurve 34 and the wrapper 20 above the playing field edge 32 of the flat playing field 30, wherein the Velocurve 34 forms a smooth transition from the flat playing field 30 to the wrapper 20. Furthermore, the sheath 20 has an opening 60 around its highest point. This is also elliptical in shape and is used for ventilation, lighting and image capture by means of TV cameras enclosed by the enclosure 20 interior.
Figur 6 zeigt eine perspektivische Darstellung der Velokurve 34. Wie bereits in Figur 2 beschrieben, geht der Spielfeldrand 32 des ebenen Spielfeldes 30 in eine Rundung nach oben hin bis zur Umhüllung 20 in Form einer Velokurve 34 über, die das gesamte ebene Spielfeld 30 umfasst. Die Velokurve 34 ist so ausgeformt, dass innerhalb der Spielarena 10 der Übergang vom ebenen Spielfeld 30 zur Umhüllung 20 nach oben hin keine Ecken aufweist und über die Velokurve 34 ein reibungsloser Übergang mit einer entsprechend abgestimmten Rundung an jeder Stelle des Spielfeldrandes 32 vom ebenen Spielfeld 30 zur Umhüllung 20 hergestellt ist. Diese ist an den Längsenden der Spielarena stärker ausgeprägt, als am Übergang zu den Seitenrändem und erlaubt es, einen Ball auch über die Innenflächen der Umhüllung 20 zu spielen.FIG. 6 shows a perspective view of the Velocurve 34. As already described in FIG. 2, the playing field edge 32 of the flat playing field 30 turns into a rounding upwards up to the wrapping 20 in the form of a Velocurve 34, which encompasses the entire flat playing field 30. The Velocurve 34 is formed so that within the game arena 10, the transition from the flat field 30 to the enclosure 20 upwards has no corners and the Velocurve 34 a smooth transition with a correspondingly coordinated rounding at each point of the playing field edge 32 from the flat playing field 30th to the enclosure 20 is made. This is more pronounced at the longitudinal ends of the playing arena, as at the transition to the Seitenrändem and allows to play a ball on the inner surfaces of the enclosure 20.
Figur 7 zeigt eine perspektivische Darstellung des konstruktiven Aufbaus der Umhüllung 20. Die Umhüllung 20 der Spielarena 10 ist als eine Konstruktion ausgeführt, die sowohl in vertikal als auch in horizontal baulich beherrschbaren Abständen aus Verstrebungen 70 bestehen. Diese Verstrebungen 70 dienen neben der Formung der Umhüllung 20 und des Erreichens der Stabilität der Spielarena 10 zur Aufnahme von viereckigen, den Ellipsenkrümmungen ange- passten transparenten Abdeckplatten, die vorzugsweise als Paneele aus Plexiglas oder Sicherheitsglas ausgebildet sind. Dabei sind die Abdeckplatten der Umhüllung 20, die sich am Spielfeldrand 32 des ebenen Spielfeldes 30 befinden, in einem definierten Bereich, und zwar im Bereich und oberhalb der Velokurve 34, nach oben hin verstärkt. Dadurch kann auch die Velokurve 34 selbst und der Bereich der Umhüllung 20 oberhalb der Velokurve 34 bespielt und betreten werden. Durch die Velokurve 34, die das gesamte Spielfeld 30 umfasst, ist der Übergang vom Spielfeld 30 nach oben hin zur Umhüllung 20 am Spielfeldrand 32 gerundet, wie in Bezug auf Figuren 2 und 6 beschrieben. Figur 8 zeigt eine perspektivische Darstellung der Spielfeldmarkierungen auf der ebenen Spielfeldfläche 30. Diese Spielfeldmarkierungen sind oben ausführlich in der Beschreibung zu Figur 2 erläutert. Figure 7 shows a perspective view of the structural design of the enclosure 20. The enclosure 20 of the gaming arena 10 is designed as a construction consisting of struts 70 in both vertically and horizontally structurally controllable distances. These braces 70 are used in addition to the formation of the sheath 20 and the achievement of the stability of the playing arena 10 for receiving quadrangular, the ellipticity curvatures adapted transparent cover plates, which are preferably designed as panels of Plexiglas or safety glass. The cover plates of the enclosure 20, which are located on the playing field edge 32 of the flat playing field 30, in a defined area, in the area and above the Velokurve 34, reinforced towards the top. As a result, the Velocurve 34 itself and the region of the envelope 20 above the Velocurve 34 can be recorded and entered. By the Velocurve 34, which comprises the entire playing field 30, the transition from the playing field 30 upwards to the wrapper 20 on the playing field edge 32 is rounded, as described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 6. FIG. 8 shows a perspective view of the playing field markings on the flat playing field surface 30. These playing field markings are explained in detail above in the description of FIG.
