- the invention relates in particular to stabilizing means of the floating game device.
- Floating gaming devices usually known to practice sports activities or play in the water.
- a first type consists of a floating element and an emergent part, disposed above this floating element and comprising a first structure and a first flexible surface, in particular of the net type, supported by said first structure for example to form a cage for receiving a ball, especially when playing waterpoio or kayak-polo, or to form a net stretched transversely, especially for playing volleyball in the water.
- a disadvantage of this type of floating game device is to drift and be unstable in the water, especially because of the turbulence generated by the movements of people in the water, or even kayaks and paddles, or because of the wind or current that may exist on the body of water when it is a natural body of water such as a lake or a pond.
- floating gaming devices that have means for docking the floating element to a fixed element, including the edge of a pool in which is disposed the floating game device.
- Such a device is for example described in US.6.220.975. This, however, requires the use of the game device in a pool and near the edges of said pool.
- Devices such as those described in the documents US.2009 / 0081919 and US.3.895.801 are also known which comprise a submerged part, an emergent part comprising a first structure and a first flexible surface supported by the first structure and configured to playing for example by constituting a volleyball net or a cage and a floating element arranged in a flotation plane and arranged to delimit the portion submerged from the emerged part.

- at least one of the first or second flexible surfaces is secured with the floating element away from said plane.
- the immersed part and the emergent part are arranged in a plane forming an angle with the floating element disposed in the flotation plane.
- the resistance in the water that provides the submerged portion aims to maintain the emerged portion in a stable position, in a vertical plane above the body of water.
- the offset of the floating element with respect to the immersed and submerged parts, as well as the fixing of at least one of the first or second flexible surfaces on an offset part of the floating element has the effect of transferring the force on said shifted part of the floating element which tends to rise or, conversely, to dive with respect to the plane of the water, when the immersed and emergent parts defined in the same plane, incline with respect to the vertical plane .
- the inverse force exerted by the water on the floating element aims on the contrary to maintain it in the plane of flotation, this force being transferred to the emergent part or the immersed part by means of the first or the second flexible surface - according to that fixed to the floating element - which keeps said parts emerged and immersed in the plane forming an angle with the floating element.
