Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for receiving spherical or nearly spherical objects of bottom surfaces by juxtaposed on an axis wheels of pairs interconnected discs that form a roller in total, which is pushed or pulled over the bottom surface.
  • golf balls As an example of the objects to be recorded golf balls are called, which are to collect in large numbers, especially in the field of driving range.
  • the prior art is a Aufsammelêt this type, which has a shaft with plastic plates, which are arranged at a smaller distance than the diameter of the spherical object to be collected on the shaft. By moving in the direction of travel, the plates are rotated and by passing over the spherical objects they are trapped between the plates and thereby transported upwards. At the end of the transport path, a metal comb is mounted, which has the same length as the shaft, and whose comb teeth are placed in the space between the plates and engage in this. As a result, the balls are automatically detached from the spaces between the plates and placed in the container located in front of it.
  • a disadvantage of this recording device is that this device can only partially adapt to bumps and thus damage the ground.
  • a collecting device for golf balls in the sense of the above description is the US 5141383 Azu refer.
  • the ring gears are paired with guide rollers with baffles.
  • the ring gears exert a pressure in the direction of the ground, which is sufficient to pinch a golf ball. Together with the guide rollers, the soil or the grass hub is heavily loaded and damaged by the pressure.
  • a similar embodiment shows the WO 95/17929.
  • a ball collecting device for tennis balls is known. Two parallel discs together with circumferentially arranged spacer rods form a rolling cage. The distance of the bars is slightly smaller than the diameter of a tennis ball. By rolling over the tennis ball is pressed into the interior of the cage. The collection device can then be set up with the drum and used as a ball dispenser for practice purposes.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a device of the type described above, which allows a gentle collection of a variety of spherical objects, such as golf balls, in a reliable, efficient and structurally safe manner.
  • this is achieved in that the distance of the paired disks of each wheel is slightly larger than the diameter of the objects to be picked up, that in Near the circumference between the discs along a circle at an angular distance from each other a plurality of axially aligned, rotatable sleeves is mounted, that each disc pair or wheel outside the rotational circle of the sleeves rotatably provided with respect to the discs, outgoing from the ground and the circumference thereof approximately quarter-circle following ramp is assigned, followed by an inclined surface for the acquisition and forwarding of a detected by a sleeve and along the ramp navalp volunteerten object connects.
  • Units or wheels of paired disks are individually spring-mounted.
  • a preferred embodiment provides that the ramp is narrowed near the bottom to a tongue which is within the distance of the discs. As a result, an elasticity is achieved, as it is advantageous when shoveling an object. Following the tongue, the ramp widened to a dimension corresponding to the outer spacing of the discs.
  • Fig. 1 shows a wheel in an oblique view, laterally partially broken away
  • Fig. 2 shows the wheel in oblique view in a complete representation
  • Fig. 3 shows the wheel of Fig. 1 and 2 in an exploded view and a roller formed from a plurality of wheels.
  • a wheel 1 according to FIGS. 1 and 2 is part of a device according to FIG. 3, which rests as a roller on the ground and can be used to collect about spherical objects, in particular golf balls, even on uneven terrain and along steep slopes , These wheels 1 automatically adapt to the external conditions of the terrain.
  • the device can be pushed as well as pulled in the direction of travel.
  • the wheel 1 is formed by two spaced discs 1a, 1b, whose distance from one another is greater than the diameter of the male objects. The distance is bridged along the circumference of the discs 1 a, 1 b by sleeves 2, which are rotatably mounted between the discs 1 a, 1 b. In the figures, fourteen such sleeves 2 are shown along the circumference of the wheel 1.
  • the wheel 1 itself is rotatably supported between side parts 8 about a wheel axle 5. Due to the limited rotatability of the device about an axis of rotation 7, it is possible to compensate for any bumps and to ensure permanent contact with the ground.
  • a spring bolt 9 in the interior of the wheel 1 causes the wheels 1 individually separately to adapt to any uneven ground.
  • the side parts 8 embrace not only the wheel 1 bifurcated, they also carry a ramp 4, which begins between the discs 1 a, 1 b near the bottom and outside of the sleeves 2 the circumference of the wheel 1 follows approximately a quarter circle.
  • Fig. 1 shows the ramp 4 as a narrow strip a circular cylindrical surface over about a quarter of the wheel circumference, wherein the ramp 4 is narrowed near the bottom to a tongue 4a, which lies within the discs 1a, 1b.
  • the ramp 4 covers the distance of the discs 1a, 1b following the narrowed tongue 4a and goes about halfway up the wheel 1 in an inclined surface 4b, as can be seen from Fig. 1.
  • the ramp 4 is connected via a profile piece in a recess 6 with the side parts 8.
  • Fig. 1 further shows a fixed ejector 3, the
  • the inclined surface 4b is slightly inclined downward, ie, inclined towards the bottom, and ends in a container 11 for the collected objects (e.g., golf balls).
  • Fig. 3 the wheel 1 is drawn with its components corresponding to Fig. 1 and 2 in an exploded view and also reproduced a roller formed from a plurality of wheels without side parts 8 as part of the device.
  • the device works as follows:
  • the adhesive resistance of the bottom surface prevents it from rolling away.
  • one of the rotatably mounted sleeves 2 engages over the spherical object, thus additionally blocking a forward movement of the object and pushes it onto the tongue 4a of the ramp 4, which moves over the ground.
  • the rotatable mounting of the sleeves 2 within the wheels 1, jamming or jamming of the male or near-spherical objects to be picked up during the approach after over-grip is prevented.
  • the object is conveyed upwards via the tongue 4a and the ramp 4 through the sleeve 2 and finally reaches the inclined surface 4b, over which the object rolls away from the wheel 1 and is received in the collecting container 11.
  • the upfeed also takes place with momentum.
  • the ejector 3 is provided which guides with its end face the object with certainty on the inclined surface 4b.

Abstract

Un dispositif pour ramasser des objets de forme sphérique ou presque sphérique à la surface du sol comporte un rouleau fait de roues (1) disposées les unes à côté des autres, chaque roue (1) étant composée de deux disques (1a, 1b) reliés entre eux avec un certain écartement qui est plus grand que le diamètre des objets de forme sphérique. Le long du périmètre externe des disques (1a, 1b), on prévoit des douilles (2) logées de manière rotative entre les disques, avec un même écart angulaire entre elles. En outre, à chaque roue (1) est associée une rampe (4) qui est longue d'un quart de circonférence, a la forme d'une surface cylindrique circulaire étroite suivant le périmètre, qui se rétrécit à proximité du sol en une languette (4a) et qui se modifie à peu près à la demi-hauteur de la roue (1) en une surface inclinée (4b) s'éloignant de la roue et étant suivie d'un récipient (11).
