Definitions

  • the present invention relates in particular to a self-stable amount for supporting an article.
  • Such an article may for example be a volleyball net or tennis, in which case two self-stable amounts are required to support respectively the ends of the net, these two amounts being arranged at a distance from one another so as to keep the net tight.
  • Such an article may however also consist of a panel consisting for example of a basketball basket or a target for darts.
  • the invention therefore also relates to sports games sets equipped with self-stable amounts objects of the present invention.
  • each self-stable post comprises a base and a post extending vertically and having its lower end fixed to the base.
  • the net comprises at each of its lateral ends, two ropes arranged respectively in the lower part and in the upper part of said net. These two lower and upper ropes pass through the vertical post.
  • each self-stabilizing post comprises at least one arcuate flexible blade whose lower end is attached to the lower end of the pole, on its outer side, said arcuate flexible blade extending upwardly and outwardly.
  • the ends of the lower and upper ropes are attached to this flexible arcuate blade.
  • This design allows to stretch the net and keep it in height.
  • the implementation of a base ensures self-stability of the amount and has the advantage of being able to install the sports game set on different types of surfaces such as turf or sand.
  • the object of the present invention is to implement a self-stable amount whose design also allows its implementation on different types of surfaces.
  • the design of the self-stable amount object of the present invention further aims to limit its weight, manufacturing cost, ease of implementation, storage and appearance safe and therefore that of the sports game set comprising one or more self-stable amounts.
  • the self-stable amount of the present invention comprises ground stabilizing means, including a stabilization base arranged to rest on a surface such as for example macadam, sand, turf or other.
  • these stabilization means are implemented from several stabilization bases or equivalents, in particular of restricted dimensions, which concomitantly ensure the stabilization of the self-stable amount in a more or less vertical position.
  • stabilization bases are particularly designed, as will be described in more detail below through non-limiting examples, to arrange the self-stable amount object of the invention on any type of surface.
  • Such stabilization means could be implemented by means of peaks, also called sardines, cooperating with the other elements of the self-stabilizing post, when the surface on which said self-stabilizing post is installed is of the turf type. or similar, in which can be planted the peaks or sardines.
  • the self-stable amount comprises a flexible element which extends upwardly more or less vertically over a height H and comprises a lower part, in particular in the form of shrouds, this lower part being extended upwards by an upper part, in particular longitudinal.

  • the stabilizing means make it possible to stabilize both said flexible element and the flexible longitudinal element. Maintaining this flexible element stretched substantially vertically between the base and the flexible longitudinal member further allows to fix an article including the longitudinal upper portion of said flexible element. However, one can also consider the attachment of an article on the lower part of this flexible element according to the design thereof.
  • the flexible element of the self-stable amount object of the present invention consists of a textile material.

  • the weighting means will preferably also be offset on said stabilizing feet.
  • Such an offset of the weighting means advantageously makes it possible to compensate more easily for the torque exerted on the basis of stabilization by the article suspended on the flexible element and thus reduce the size and weight of the weighting means. It also reduces the size and also facilitates the transport of self-stable amount in the stowed position.
  • weighting means could either be integrated in the stabilization means or be removable vis-à-vis them.
