Description
I
APPARATUS FOR PLAYING A GAME
This invention relates to apparatus for playing a traditional street game known by various names such as "kerb ball," "kerb-it" or kirby". This developed as a game played in residential streets, and involves throwing a ball, typically a football, across the street, aimed at the kerb on the far side, the object being to hit the edge of the kerb, causing the ball to bounce back at catchable height, rather than hitting the pavement beyond the kerb edge and bouncing on or hitting the front of the kerb and simply rolling back into the road. In relatively narrow streets the game could be played between two opposite kerbs, between two players standing opposite one another behind respective kerbs, each player aiming to hit the opposite and catch the ball on the rebound, the skill lying in hitting the kerb edge in jist the right place to bounce back to the thrower at catchable height, rather than rolling on or kicking up to be caught by an opponent.
Numerous variations of the game are possible, but in recent years it has been considered unsafe for children to play in urban streets or to throw balls across the road. Also, long stretches of kerb are obstructed by parked cars. There is therefore a need for an alternative way of playing the game which can be used anywhere, away from roads, for example in a park or garden.
GB-A-2 422 318 discloses apparatus for playing a kerb ball game, comprising a pair of artificial kerbs of moulded plastics, to be positioned opposite one another, each having an angled front surface representing a kerb edge. Behind each kerb section is a small platform on which a player can stand, the underside of the platform having a non-slip rubber pad. A similar device is disclosed in GB-A-2 449 057, this also having a slide counter on the top of each kerb section for keeping the score.
According to a first aspect of the present invention there is provided a device for playing a game comprising an elongate housing to represent a kerb, having a top surface and a front surface and, along or adjacent an edge between said surfaces, an impact sensitive strip with means for audibly or visibly registering an impact thereon.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, two such housings are provided, to be positioned opposite one another, with the impact sensitive strip of each housing presenting a target for a ball or the like thrown by a player standing behind the other said housing.
In a still more preferred embodiment of the invention, the two housings are linked by a flexible sheet, which can be stowed within one or both housings. One or both ends of the sheet can be mounted on a roller within a respective housing, and drawn out from the housing in a manner similar to a roller blind, against a spring bias. A ratchet can be used to prevent retraction when the sheet is drawn out to the desired length.
The sheet may suitably be made from a fibre-reinforced plastics material, similar to that of a roller blind. The sheet will typically have a thickness of 0.2 to 1 mm so as to allow the rolled up sheet to be accommodated within one or both housings. The front side of the housing, below the impact-sensitive strip, may suitably be from 5cm in height, for a relatively small scale, perhaps indoor, version of the game, up to 10 or 12cm for a larger scale outdoor version.
The sheet may be provided on one or both sides with markings for playing one or more other games such as hopscotch.
The housings may suitably be made from rigid plastics material, but more robust versions could be made from aluminium or a fibre-reinforced plastics material.
A preferred embodiment of the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings wherein: Figure 1 is a perspective view of a device in accordance with the invention, in its folded state; Figure 2 is a perspective view showing the device laid out for playing the game; Figure 3 is a side elevation of the device as laid out in Figure 2.
Figure 4 is a schematic horizontal cross-sectional view of one end of the interior of one of the housings of the device of Figures 1 to 3; and Figure 5 is a cross sectional view on the line v to v in Figure 4.
The device shown in Figure 1 comprises a pair of housings 10, which may be substantially identical. The housings are connected together by a flexible sheet extending between them which, since it is located at the rear of the housings as shown in Figure 1 does not appear in this figure. It can be seen in figures 2 and 3. The surface 18 of the upper housing as shown in Figure 1 is the top surface during use. Along the far edge of this surface is an impact-sensitive strip indicated by 16, which can be seen more clearly in Figure 2.
Each housing has an oblique longitudinal surface 17, at the centre of which is provided a carrier handle 15. In the stowed position shown in Figure 1, the carrier handles are adjacent one another and can therefore be picked up together, holding the houses together in their stowed position.
Each housing comprises a hollow plastics extrusion of substantially constant cross section of irregular hexagonal shape. End caps 12 are provided at each end, these also suitably being of plastics material.
On the upper surface 18 of each housing is a button 14, to release a ratchet mechanism for stowing the sheet material in the housing, as will be described in detail below.
Figure 2 shows the device in its working position, with the two housings 10 pulled apart and placed on the floor with flexible sheet 20 extended between them. The impact sensitive strip 16 of each housing extends downwardly and obliquely from the upper surface 18. To play the game, the two players stand facing each other behind the respective housings 10, and take turns to throw a ball at the housing opposite, aiming to hit the impact-sensitive strip 16. While the street game is traditionally played with a football, smaller or lighter balls can be used with smaller-scale versions of the game, for example a tennis ball or soft rubber ball.
The impact sensitive strips may for example comprise piezo-electric strips and may be connected to electronic circuitry designed to register a hit, by emitting an electronic sound and/or by means of a display, for example of an electronic counter. Such a display may be provided at a convenient location on the outside of the housing. The electronic circuitry for this purpose is well known and need not be described in detail here. As can be seen in Figure 2, the strip 16 extends over most of the width of the housing 10. The housing will typically have an overall length of 80 to 120cm, and the strip should preferably be long enough to register a hit in respect of any ball striking the oblique surface between the end caps 12 As shown in Figure 2, the flexible sheet 20, suitably of woven or fibre reinforced plastics or a plastics or rubber-backed textile material, may have one or both surfaces marked for playing another game, such as hopscotch as shown in Figure 2. The opposite side of the sheet could be marked for a different game, to be played by turning over the whole device.
Figure 4 is a partial horizontal cross section through one end of one of the housings 10, showing the flexible sheet 20 extending out of the housing from a roll 40 on a rotatable shaft 42.
The shaft 42 extends into a mounting 45 on the inner side of end cap 12. This mounting includes a spring (not shown) biasing the shaft in rotation in a direction to wind the sheet 20 onto the shaft.
Mounted on the shaft adjacent the edge of the sheet 20 is a spool end 44 to guide the sheet correctly onto the shaft. Next to the spool end, also fixedly mounted on the shaft to rotate with it, is a ratchet wheel 46, more easily seen in Figure 5.
A ratchet lever 47, pivotally mounted on a spindle 48, projecting from the roll mounting 45, is spring biased in an anticlockwise direction as seen in Figure 5 so as normally to engage the ratchet wheel 46, to prevent it rotating anticlockwise as seen in Figure 5 to wind the sheet onto the shaft 20. The spring biasing mechanism (not shown) is located within the mounting 45.
The opposite end of the shaft 42 has a similar mounting on the inside of the opposite end cap, which may include an additional spring bias but not a ratchet.
As shown in Figure 5, the sheet 20 can be drawn out of the housing 10 through an elongate slot 54, drawing it off the roll 40 and thus causing the shaft 42 to rotate in a clockwise direction. The ratchet lever 47 has a rounded outer end 58, enabling it to pass over curved sides 59 of ratchet teeth 60, allowing the shaft to rotate.
When the sheet has been drawn out to the desired length, it is released so that the shaft 42 rotates slightly under its spring bias. The ratchet lever 47 thus engages one of the teeth 60 on the ratchet wheel 46 to prevent further rewinding of the roll.
Button 14 is provided for rewinding the sheet into the housing. The button is arranged to actuate a stalk 55, which engages the ratchet lever 47 on the opposite side of its pivot 48 from the ratchet end 58. The stalk passes through a tubular housing 51 on the underside of surface and is axially slidable over a limited travel. A coil spring 56 around the stalk extends between the lower end of button 14 and the bottom of tubular housing 51, and acts to bias the button 14 upwardly out of the housing 51, to a position in which an enlarged head of stalk 55 engages the bottom of the tubular housing.
Pushing the button 14 downwardly as shown in Figure 5 pushes the stalk 55 against one end of the ratchet lever 47, causing its other end 58 to rise and disengage from the teeth 60 of ratchet wheel 46. Shaft 42 is thus free to rotate under its spring bias, anticlockwise as shown in Figure 5, to wind the sheet 20 onto the roll within the housing.
To balance the weight of the two housings when they are carried, it is preferable if each of the housings accommodates a part of the sheet, the sheet preferably being divided equally between the two housings. To this end, means may be provided for preventing more than about half of the sheet being wound into each housing. A simple way of doing this is to bond a rigid elongate flat strip across the underside of the sheet at approximately its mid point, the strip being slightly longer than the slots 54 in the housings from which the sheet emerges so that it cannot itself enter either housing. In the stowed condition of the device. The part of the sheet to which the strip is bonded will be the part extending between the respective slots 54 of the two housings.
The electronic circuitry for recording hits may be located directly behind the strip, as shown at 52 in Figure 5. The angle of the strip 16 is shown as approximately 45° in figure 5, but could vary over a wide range. It is preferably in a range of 20-70° from the vertical, more preferably 30-60°, in the working position of the device.
According to a further aspect of the invention there is provided a device for playing a game comprising a pair of elongate housings each shaped to represent a kerb as a target for a ball, said housings being connected together by a flexible sheet windable and unwindable into and out of one or both housings to vary the distance between them.
