The invention relates to a device comprising a centering laser in the vertical plane and a measurement laser. It consists of a lower base "A" which will cap the goal without touching through a central recess (2). This base can be adjusted in height to compensate for the unevenness of the ground, thanks to 4 adjustable feet (1) The upper base (B) secured to the lower base by 4 rods (3) will include the centering laser (4) working in the plane vertical. A support (C) comprising an orientable ball joint (6) in the vertical plane and in the horizontal plane may be blocked by a screw (5) The measuring laser (9) will be secured to the ball (6) by means of a plane of poses (8), lockable by a knob (7) The device according to the invention has 3 advantages: speed of implementation, ease of measurement and reliability of the result.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif destiné aux joueurs de boules (pétanque ou boules lyonnaises) permettant de déterminer avec précision quelle est la boule qui gagne le point.The present invention relates to a device intended for bowling players (pétanque or Lyon balls) making it possible to determine with precision which ball wins the point.

Actuellement, les joueurs ou l’arbitre utilisent le mètre-ruban ou le mètretirette pour connaître la boule la plus près du but. Ce type de mesure est long à mettre en œuvre et sujet à discussions. Il nécessite, en effet, beaucoup de minutie de la part de l’opérateur qui doit effectuer plusieurs mesures comparatives.Currently, players or the referee use the measuring tape or the meter to find the ball closest to the goal. This type of measure is long to implement and subject to discussion. It requires, in fact, a lot of thoroughness on the part of the operator who must carry out several comparative measurements.

Le dispositif selon l’invention permet de remplacer le mode de lecture. En effet, le recours à la mesure laser est rapide à mettre en œuvre, facile pour la lecture et fiable quant au résultat.The device according to the invention makes it possible to replace the reading mode. Indeed, the use of laser measurement is quick to implement, easy to read and reliable as to the result.

Toutefois, afin d’améliorer la mise en œuvre du dispositif initial (n° 17/01180 du 14/11/2017), des perfectionnements sont apportés. En effet, le risque de bouger le but avec le dispositif initial pouvait générer contestation. Le nouveau dispositif comprend 3 parties. Un socle inférieur évidé en son centre, d’un diamètre suffisant pour coiffer le but sans le toucher, solidaire d’un socle supérieur dans lequel est fixé un laser oeuvrant dans le plan vertical. Ce socle supérieur supporte le dispositif de mesure laser (identique à la demande n° 17/01180 du 14/11/2017). Le dessin annexé illustre l’invention. La figure 1 représente les 3 composants du nouveau dispositif (vu de côté - Echelle 1). En référence à ce dessin, le socle inférieur « A », évidé en son centre (2) vient coiffer le but sans le toucher. Ce socle est pourvu de 4 pieds (1) réglables en hauteur afin de pallier les inégalités du terrain. Ce socle est solidaire d’un socle supérieur (B) grâce à 4 tiges de liaison (3). Dans le socle supérieur (B) est intégré un laser de centrage (4) oeuvrant dans le plan vertical. Le rayon de ce laser sera dirigé sur l’axe du centre du but afin de pérenniser la mesure finale sans aucun contact physique.However, in order to improve the implementation of the initial system (n ° 17/01180 of 14/11/2017), improvements are made. Indeed, the risk of moving the goal with the initial device could generate contestation. The new device has 3 parts. A lower base hollowed out in its center, of a diameter sufficient to cover the goal without touching it, secured to an upper base in which is fixed a laser working in the vertical plane. This upper base supports the laser measurement device (identical to the request n ° 17/01180 of 14/11/2017). The accompanying drawing illustrates the invention. Figure 1 shows the 3 components of the new device (seen from the side - Scale 1). With reference to this drawing, the lower base “A”, hollowed out in its center (2) covers the goal without touching it. This base is provided with 4 feet (1) adjustable in height to overcome the unevenness of the ground. This base is secured to an upper base (B) thanks to 4 connecting rods (3). In the upper base (B) is integrated a centering laser (4) working in the vertical plane. The beam of this laser will be directed on the axis of the center of the goal in order to perpetuate the final measurement without any physical contact.

Sur le socle supérieur sera fixé le dispositif de supportage et d’orientation (C) du laser de mesure (9). Ce dernier est articulé grâce à une rotule (6) agissant dans le plan vertical et dans le plan horizontal, biocable par une vis (5) (Identique à la demande n° 17/01180 du 14/11/2017). Après mise en œuvre du laser de centrage (4) il faut pointer le laser de mesure (9) sur l’axe de la boule à mesurer. La mesure s’affiche sur l’écran et sera mémorisée. La mesure de la boule concurrente sera réalisée de la même manière. Il suffit ensuite de comparer les deux mesures pour connaître la boule qui gagne le point.The support and orientation device (C) of the measuring laser (9) will be attached to the upper base. The latter is articulated thanks to a ball joint (6) acting in the vertical plane and in the horizontal plane, biocable by a screw (5) (Identical to the request n ° 17/01180 of 14/11/2017). After using the centering laser (4), the measuring laser (9) must be pointed at the axis of the ball to be measured. The measurement is displayed on the screen and will be stored. The measurement of the competing ball will be carried out in the same way. Then just compare the two measurements to find the ball that wins the point.
