Un tel article peut par exemple être un filet de volley-ball ou de tennis, dans quel cas deux montants auto-stables sont nécessaires pour supporter respectivement les extrémités de ce filet, ces deux montants étant disposés à distance l'un de l'autre en sorte de maintenir le filet tendu. Un tel article peut toutefois être également constitué d'un panneau consistant par exemple en un panier de basket-ball ou en une cible pour fléchettes. L'invention concerne donc également des sets de jeux sportifs équipés de montants auto-stables objets de la présente invention.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.
Il est connu des montants auto-stables et notamment celui décrit dans la publication de brevet
L'objet de la présente invention est de mettre en oeuvre un montant auto-stable dont la conception permet également sa mise en place sur différents types de surfaces. La conception du montant auto-stable objet de la présente invention a en outre pour but de limiter son poids, son coût de fabrication, sa facilité de mise en place, son rangement et son aspect sécuritaire et par conséquent celui du set de jeu sportif comprenant un ou plusieurs montants auto-stables.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.
A cet effet, le montant auto-stable objet de la présente invention comprend des moyens de stabilisation au sol, notamment une base de stabilisation agencée pour reposer sur une surface telle que par exemple du macadam, du sable, du gazon ou autre. On peut toutefois envisager que ces moyens de stabilisation soient mis en oeuvre à partir de plusieurs bases de stabilisation ou équivalents, notamment de dimensions restreintes, lesquelles assurent concomitamment la stabilisation du montant auto-stable en position plus ou moins verticale. Une voire de telles bases de stabilisation sont notamment conçues, tel qu'il le sera décrit plus en détail ci-après au travers d'exemples non limitatifs, pour agencer le montant auto-stable objet de l'invention sur tout type de surface. On pourrait toutefois envisager que de tels moyens de stabilisation soient mis en oeuvre au moyen de pics, encore appelés sardines, coopérant avec les autres éléments du montant auto-stable, lorsque la surface sur laquelle est installé ledit montant auto-stable est du type gazon ou similaire, dans laquelle peuvent être plantés les pics ou sardines.For this purpose, 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. However, it can be envisaged that 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. One or even such 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. However, it could be envisaged that 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.
En outre, le montant auto-stable comprend un élément souple qui s'étend vers le haut plus ou moins verticalement sur une hauteur H et comporte une partie inférieure, notamment sous la forme d'haubans, cette partie inférieure étant prolongée vers le haut par une partie supérieure, notamment longitudinale. Cet élément souple, notamment sa partie supérieure longitudinale, est agencé pour maintenir un article tel que par exemple l'une des extrémités d'un filet voire un panneau consistant par exemple en un panier de basket-ball ou une cible pour fléchettes. Des premiers moyens d'ancrage sont agencés entre les moyens de stabilisation et la partie inférieure de l'élément souple.In addition, 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. This flexible element, in particular its longitudinal upper part, is arranged to hold an article such as for example one of the ends of a net or a panel consisting for example of a basketball basket or a dartboard. First anchoring means are arranged between the stabilizing means and the lower part of the flexible element.
Par ailleurs, le montant auto-stable objet de l'invention comprend également un élément longitudinal flexible de longueur supérieure à la hauteur H de l'élément souple, des seconds moyens d'ancrage étant agencés entre l'extrémité inférieure de cet élément longitudinal flexible et les moyens de stabilisation. De même, des troisièmes moyens d'ancrage sont agencés entre l'extrémité supérieure dudit élément longitudinal flexible et l'extrémité supérieure de la partie supérieure de l'élément souple.Moreover, the self-stable amount subject of the invention also comprises a flexible longitudinal element of length greater than the height H of the flexible element, second anchoring means being arranged between the lower end of this flexible longitudinal element. and the means of stabilization. Likewise, third anchoring means are arranged between the upper end of said flexible longitudinal element and the upper end of the upper part of the flexible element.
Ainsi, lorsque les premier, second et troisième moyens d'ancrage sont mis en place entre les moyens de stabilisation, l'élément souple et l'élément longitudinal flexible, la différence de longueur entre ledit élément longitudinal flexible et l'élément souple permet d'arquer cet élément longitudinal flexible tandis que l'élément souple est maintenu tendu plus ou moins verticalement entre la base de stabilisation et l'extrémité supérieure de l'élément longitudinal flexible, à la manière d'une corde d'un arc. En outre, les moyens de stabilisation permettent de stabiliser à la fois ledit élément souple et l'élément longitudinal flexible. Le maintien de cet élément souple tendu sensiblement verticalement entre la base et l'élément longitudinal flexible permet en outre de fixer un article notamment sur la partie supérieure longitudinale dudit élément souple. On peut toutefois envisager également la fixation d'un article sur la partie inférieure de cet élément souple selon la conception de celui-ci.Thus, when the first, second and third anchoring means are put in place between the stabilizing means, the flexible element and the flexible longitudinal element, the difference in length between the flexible longitudinal element and the flexible element makes it possible to This flexible longitudinal element is arched while the flexible element is held taut more or less vertically between the stabilizing base and the upper end of the flexible longitudinal element, in the manner of a rope of an arc. In addition, 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.
De manière préférentielle, l'élément souple du montant auto-stable objet de la présente invention est constitué d'une matière textile. On peut toutefois envisager d'autres matières telles qu'un élastomère non extensible voire peu extensible. On comprendra en outre que l'utilisation d'un tel élément souple permet de limiter la présence d'éléments structurels rigides et généralement métalliques, dont la masse est supérieure à celle des matières textiles voire des élastomères. Cela facilite en outre le rangement.Preferably, the flexible element of the self-stable amount object of the present invention consists of a textile material. However, it is possible to envisage other materials such as an elastomer which is not extensible or even slightly extensible. It will further be understood that the use of such a flexible element makes it possible to limit the presence of rigid and generally metallic structural elements whose mass is greater than that of textile materials or even elastomers. This also facilitates storage.
Selon l'invention, les moyens de stabilisation, consistant notamment en une base de stabilisation, comprennent au moins deux premiers systèmes d'accrochage, la partie inférieure de l'élément souple étant constituée d'au moins deux haubans, notamment du type sangle qui s'étendent vers le bas en formant un angle entre eux, les extrémités inférieures des haubans comprenant des seconds systèmes d'accrochage coopérant respectivement avec les premiers systèmes d'accrochage sur la base.According to the invention, the stabilizing means, consisting in particular of a stabilization base, comprise at least two first attachment systems, the lower part of the flexible element being constituted by at least two stay cables, in particular of the type of strap which extend downwardly at an angle to each other, the lower ends of the stays comprising second attachment systems co-operating respectively with the first attachment systems on the base.
Selon un mode de conception, les moyens de stabilisation consistent en une base de stabilisation comprenant trois premiers systèmes d'accrochage répartis triangulairement, la partie inférieure de l'élément souple étant constituée de trois haubans, notamment du type sangle, disposés en trépied. En outre, l'un des trois haubans est de préférence disposé dans le prolongement de la partie supérieure longitudinale. Cela présente pour avantage de pouvoir utiliser cet hauban de la partie inférieure pour la fixation d'un article, par exemple l'extrémité d'un filet utilisé pour la pratique du tennis voire du tennis-ballon.According to a design mode, the stabilization means consist of a stabilization base comprising three first fastening systems distributed triangularly, the lower part of the flexible element consisting of three stay cables, in particular of the strap type, arranged in a tripod. In addition, one of the three stays is preferably arranged in the extension of the longitudinal upper part. This has the advantage of being able to use this stay of the lower part for fixing an article, for example the end of a net used for the practice of tennis or tennis ball.
Selon l'invention, les moyens de stabilisation consistent en une base de stabilisation comprenant trois pieds de stabilisation disposés en étoile. D'autres variantes sont envisageables, notamment une base de stabilisation comprenant un socle et au moins deux pieds de stabilisation.According to the invention, the stabilization means consist of a stabilization base comprising three stabilization feet arranged in a star. Other variants are possible, including a stabilization base comprising a base and at least two stabilizing feet.
Selon l'invention, les moyens de stabilisation consistent en une base de stabilisation comprenant un système de réduction de son encombrement dans un mode de rangement. Ainsi, on limite l'encombrement du montant auto-stable et par conséquent celui du set de jeu sportif constitué d'un ou plusieurs montants auto-stables.According to the invention, the stabilization means consist of a stabilization base comprising a system for reducing its bulk in a storage mode. Thus, it limits the size of the self-stable amount and therefore that of the sports game set consisting of one or more self-stable amounts.
Selon le mode de conception où la base comprend trois pieds de stabilisation disposés en étoile, c'est-à-dire que leurs premières extrémités proximales sont assemblées entre elles, les pieds de stabilisation s'étendant dans un même plan en formant des angles entre eux, on prévoit un montage en liaison pivot entre lesdites premières extrémités proximales des pieds de stabilisation en sorte de permettre leur rabattement les uns contre les autres dans ledit plan, et ainsi de réduire l'encombrement.According to the design mode where the base comprises three stabilizing feet arranged in a star, that is to say that their first proximal ends are assembled together, the stabilizing feet extending in the same plane forming angles between they provide a pivot connection between said first proximal ends of the stabilizing feet so as to allow them to fold against each other in said plane, and thus reduce the bulk.
Selon le mode de conception où la base de stabilisation comprend un socle et au moins deux pieds de stabilisation, on prévoit un montage par emboîtement des pieds de stabilisation sur le socle, ce qui permet de retirer les pieds de stabilisation du socle pour les regrouper lors du rangement et ainsi, de réduire l'encombrement.According to the design mode where the stabilization base comprises a base and at least two feet of stabilization, it provides a nesting installation of the stabilizing feet on the base, which allows to remove the stabilizing feet of the base to consolidate when storage and thus reduce clutter.
Selon l'invention, l'élément longitudinal flexible est de préférence constitué d'un tube flexible. En outre, cet élément longitudinal flexible comprend un système de réduction de sa longueur permettant également de réduire son encombrement dans un mode de rangement du montant auto-stable. Un tel système de réduction de la longueur est par exemple constitué par un tube flexible constitué d'au moins deux tronçons ou baguettes emboîtables et pliables entre eux. On peut toutefois envisager un tube flexible télescopique.According to the invention, the flexible longitudinal element is preferably constituted by a flexible tube. In addition, this flexible longitudinal element comprises a length reduction system also reducing its bulk in a self-stable amount storage mode. Such a length reduction system is for example constituted by a flexible tube consisting of at least two sections or rods nestable and foldable between them. However, it is possible to envisage a telescopic flexible tube.
Selon l'invention, les moyens de stabilisation consistent en une base de stabilisation comprenant un orifice de réception de l'extrémité inférieure de l'élément longitudinal flexible, notamment sous la forme d'un tube flexible. De préférence, cet orifice est configuré pour incliner l'extrémité inférieure de l'élément longitudinal flexible emboîtée dans celui-ci. Cela présente pour avantage d'orienter l'élément longitudinal flexible lors du montage du montant auto-stable et de contribuer à la stabilité de l'élément longitudinal flexible en position arquée, maintenant l'élément souple tendu verticalement. On pourrait toutefois prévoir d'autres systèmes de fixation et d'orientation de l'élément longitudinal flexible vis-à-vis de la base de stabilisation sans sortir du cadre de l'invention. Lorsque l'élément flexible est fixé et orienté sur la base de stabilisation, il est en outre concevable de mettre en oeuvre un élément souple dont la partie inférieure et la partie supérieure sont constituées d'une seule et même sangle ou similaire, l'extrémité supérieure de la sangle étant fixée à l'extrémité supérieure de l'élément flexible et l'extrémité inférieure de la sangle étant par exemple fixée à la base, fixée dans le sol au moyen d'un pic ou d'une sardine voire fixée à une masse complémentaire reposant sur le sol.According to the invention, the stabilization means consist of a stabilization base comprising a receiving orifice of the lower end of the flexible longitudinal element, in particular in the form of a flexible tube. Preferably, this port is configured to tilt the lower end of the flexible longitudinal member nested therein. This has the advantage of orienting the flexible longitudinal element during mounting of the self-stabilizing post and contributing to the stability of the flexible longitudinal element in the arcuate position, maintaining the flexible element stretched vertically. However, it is possible to provide other systems for fixing and orienting the flexible longitudinal element vis-à-vis the stabilization base without departing from the scope of the invention. When the flexible element is fixed and oriented on the stabilizing base, it is furthermore conceivable to use a flexible element whose lower part and the upper part consist of one and the same strap or the like, the end upper strap being attached to the upper end of the flexible element and the lower end of the strap being for example fixed to the base, fixed in the ground by means of a pick or sardine or fixed to a complementary mass resting on the ground.
Selon un mode de conception de l'invention, la partie supérieure de l'élément souple est constituée d'une sangle. Des variantes sont toutefois envisageables telles que par exemple une corde ou similaire. Il en est de même pour la partie inférieure de l'élément souple. On pourra en outre prévoir des combinaisons de sangles et de cordes ou similaires entre la partie inférieure et la partie supérieure de l'élément souple.According to one embodiment of the invention, the upper part of the flexible element consists of a strap. Variants are however possible such as for example a rope or the like. It is the same for the lower part of the flexible element. It will further be possible to provide combinations of straps and ropes or the like between the lower part and the upper part of the flexible element.
Selon l'invention, un système d'accrochage est agencé sur l'élément souple pour l'assujettissement d'un article notamment du type panneau ou filet. De préférence, ce système d'accrochage sera mis en oeuvre sur la partie supérieure longitudinale de l'élément souple. On peut toutefois envisager sa mise en oeuvre sur la partie inférieure de l'élément souple voire sur les deux à la fois.According to the invention, a fastening system is arranged on the flexible element for securing an article, in particular of the panel or net type. Preferably, this attachment system will be implemented on the upper longitudinal portion of the flexible element. However, we can consider its implementation on the lower part of the flexible element or both at once.
Selon l'invention, des moyens d'ajustement en hauteur sont agencés entre le système d'accrochage de l'article et l'élément souple. Cela a pour but de pouvoir ajuster la position de l'article fixé sur le montant auto-stable, par exemple en fonction de la taille des utilisateurs, enfants ou adultes. Cela a en outre pour but de pouvoir utiliser un même montant pour la fixation de différents types d'articles, en fonction de l'activité sportive pratiquée.According to the invention, height adjustment means are arranged between the fastening system of the article and the flexible element. This is to be able to adjust the position of the fixed article on the self-stable amount, for example depending on the size of users, children or adults. This is also intended to use the same amount for fixing different types of items, depending on the sporting activity practiced.
Selon l'invention, un système de repérage de la position en hauteur du système d'accrochage est agencé sur l'élément souple. Cela présente pour avantage de positionner convenablement l'article notamment du type panneau ou filet en fonction de l'activité sportive pratiquée.According to the invention, a system for locating the height position of the fastening system is arranged on the flexible element. This has the advantage of properly positioning the article including panel or net type depending on the sporting activity practiced.
Selon l'invention, les moyens de stabilisation comprennent des moyens de lestage. Cela présente pour avantage de renforcer la stabilité du montant auto-stable notamment lorsque l'article est du type panneau voire pour compenser les efforts qui peuvent éventuellement être exercés sur le filet fixé au montant lorsque, par exemple, le sportif s'appuie involontairement sur ce filet durant son activité sportive. Lorsque les moyens de stabilisation se composent d'une base de stabilisation comprenant un socle et des pieds de stabilisation, on peut prévoir que le socle constitue lesdits moyens de lestage. On peut en outre prévoir que des moyens de lestage sont déportés sur au moins un des pieds de stabilisation, en complément ou non du socle. Lorsque les moyens de stabilisation consistent en une base de stabilisation comprenant trois pieds de stabilisation disposés en étoile et, de préférence articulés entre eux, les moyens de lestage seront, de préférence, également déportés sur lesdits pieds de stabilisation. Un tel déport des moyens de lestage permet avantageusement de compenser plus facilement le couple exercé sur la base de stabilisation par l'article suspendu sur l'élément souple et ainsi, de réduire la taille et la masse des moyens de lestage. On réduit donc également l'encombrement et facilite en outre le transport de montant auto-stable en position rangée.According to the invention, the stabilization means comprise weighting means. This has the advantage of reinforcing the stability of the self-stable amount, especially when the article is of the panel type or even to compensate for the efforts that may possibly be exerted on the net attached to the amount when, for example, the athlete involuntarily relies on this net during his sporting activity. When the stabilizing means consist of a stabilization base comprising a base and stabilizing feet, it is possible for the base to constitute said weighting means. It can further be provided that ballasting means are deported on at least one of the stabilizing feet, in addition or not to the base. When the stabilization means consist of a stabilization base comprising three stabilization feet arranged in a star and preferably hinged together, 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.
Par ailleurs, selon l'invention, de tels moyens de lestage pourraient soit être intégrés aux moyens de stabilisations soit être amovibles vis-à-vis de ceux-ci. On peut par exemple prévoir des masselottes qui se positionnent sur les extrémités distales des pieds de stabilisation de la base de stabilisation.Furthermore, according to the invention, such weighting means could either be integrated in the stabilization means or be removable vis-à-vis them. We can for example provide weights that are positioned on the distal ends of the stabilizing feet of the stabilization base.
En outre, l'invention porte sur un set de jeu sportif comprenant un ou plusieurs montants auto-stables objets de l'invention.In addition, the invention relates to a sports game set comprising one or more self-stable amounts subject of the invention.
Selon un premier mode de conception, ce set de jeu sportif comprend deux montants auto-stables et un filet muni à ses extrémités latérales de systèmes d'accrochage avec les éléments souples des deux montants auto-stables. On pourra prévoir des accessoires complémentaires dans ce set de jeu sportif tels que par exemple des raquettes et balles de tennis, des raquettes et volants de badminton, des ballons de volley-ball, des ballons de foot des moyens de délimitation de l'aire de jeu ou autres.According to a first mode of conception, this sporting game set comprises two self-stable uprights and a net provided at its lateral ends with fastening systems with the flexible elements of the two self-stable uprights. Additional accessories may be provided in this sports game set such as, for example, tennis rackets and balls, rackets and badminton shuttlecocks, volleyballs, footballs, and means for delimiting the playing area. game or others.
En outre, le filet comprend de préférence un système d'ajustement en largeur, ce qui présente pour avantage de pouvoir ajuster la largeur du terrain et l'écartement des montants auto-stables en fonction des dimensions de la zone de jeu disponible voire en fonction de l'activité sportive pratiquée.In addition, the net preferably comprises a width adjustment system, which has the advantage of being able to adjust the width of the ground and the spacing of the self-stable amounts according to the dimensions of the available play area or even according to sports activity practiced.
Selon une variante de conception, ce set de jeu sportif comprend au moins un montant auto-stable et au moins un panneau, lequel est muni sur sa face arrière d'un système d'accrochage sur l'élément souple du montant auto-stable. Ce panneau est par exemple constitué d'un panier de basket-ball dans quel cas on prévoira un ballon de basket dans le set de jeu sportif. On peut en outre prévoir deux montants auto-stables et deux panneaux de basket afin de constituer un terrain de basket-ball complet.According to a variant of design, this sports game set comprises at least one self-stable amount and at least one panel, which is provided on its rear face with a fastening system on the flexible element of the self-stable amount. This panel is for example consisting of a basketball basket in which case we will provide a basketball in the sports game set. In addition, there are two self-stabilizing posts and two basketballs to form a complete basketball court.
En outre, un tel panneau peut être une cible pour flèches dans quel cas le set de jeu sportif comprend de préférence des accessoires complémentaires tels que des fléchettes, un arc et des flèches ou autres.In addition, such a panel may be a target for arrows in which case the sports game set preferably includes complementary accessories such as darts, bow and arrows or the like.
Des sets de jeu sportif plus complets peuvent en outre être envisagés vu l'adaptabilité du montant auto-stable objet de l'invention.More complete sports game sets can also be envisaged given the adaptability of the self-stable amount of the invention.
