Definitions
- the present invention relates to trophy assemblies and in particular to trophy assemblies comprising component parts that are assembled by trophy dealers.
- Trophies typically comprise a base, onto which is mounted an upper, decorative part such as a cup or figurine, optionally with additional risers or columns therebetween.
- a simple example of a typical trophy assembly is illustrated in Figure 1.
- the trophy comprises a trophy base 10, and a decorative element in the form of a figurine 12 which includes a downwardly projecting threaded rod 14.
- the rod 14 is inserted into a bore 16 in the trophy base 10 and the rod is secured to the base using an internally threaded connector piece, or ferrule 18, into which the threaded rod 14 is fastened.
- the head 20 of the ferrule locates within a counterbore recess (not shown) on the underside of the base 10. Risers and columns can be added using additional threaded rods and ferrules.
- a trophy assembly comprising a trophy base, a connector piece, at least one decorative element, and a connecting rod for connecting the decorative element to the connector piece; the rod having a first end which is attachable to the decorative element, and a second end provided with a screw-threaded portion for attachment to the connector piece, the second end of the rod having a diameter.
- the trophy base includes a bore shaped to receive the connector piece, the bore having an internal wall.
- the connector piece is formed from a plastics material and comprises a head portion and a body portion and comprises an elongate socket passing through both the head and body portions; the elongate socket having a second radius which is greater than or equal to the first radius.
- the body portion of the connector piece has a first end proximal to the head portion and a second end distal to the head portion, and wherein the second end of the body portion comprises at least two parts which are resilient when subjected to a force substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the elongate socket.
- the body portion has an internal surface defining the elongate socket and the internal surface is provided with at least two elongate protrusions oriented substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the elongate socket, and wherein the elongate protrusions define an inner channel with a third radius, and the third radius is smaller than the first radius.
- the body portion has an external surface provided with a plurality of ridges
- the connector piece is connectable to the trophy base by pushing the connector piece into the bore such that the parts of the body portion are pushed together and such that the ridges are in contact with the internal wall of the bore.
- the decorative element is connectable to the base by screwing the second end of the rod into the socket of the connector piece such that the screw-threaded portion of the rod engages with the elongate protrusions within the socket.
