[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the device belongs]

 The present invention relates to a new play facility having both playability of billiards and gate balls.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Billiards are popular as indoor sports, and gateball is popular as outdoor sports.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention is a game field that is 1.5 to 2.5 times larger than a pocket billiard game field, 15 balls numbered from 1 to 15 installed in the field, and 1 ball. The field surface of the game field is made of a sheet-like material with good ball rolling, such as an artificial lawn, and an outer frame is installed and fixed on the outer periphery, and the outer frame has four corners. Gates through which the above balls can pass are provided at six points, which are the corners and the midpoint on the long side, so that players entering the game field can hit the bean ball with the stick head. And a game facility characterized by

[Embodiment of device]

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The play facility of the present invention is installed in a flat surface such as leveled ground (eg, park, rooftop, garden, etc.) or floor of concrete, asphalt, flooring (eg, coffee shop, waiting room, etc.) The game field 1 is provided.

The game field 1 is a rectangle having a ratio of long sides to short sides of about 2: 1 and has a width of, for example, about 1.5 to 2.5 times that of a pocket billiard field, and is usually 4 m. The area is set to (long side) × 2 m (short side).

The field surface of the game field 1 is composed of a sheet-like material, for example, an artificial lawn 2, and as the artificial lawn 2, one having a good ball rolling is suitable.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the underside of the artificial lawn 2 is provided with an under-material 3 for the purpose of imparting appropriate elasticity to the field 1 and keeping the field surface of the artificial lawn 2 flat. Is provided.

There is no particular limitation on the under material 3 as long as the surface is smooth and has appropriate elasticity. Elasticity such as rubber obtained by hardening a rubber chip with a binder or other elastic material having appropriate elasticity is used. Sheets can be used.

Considering the convenience of assembling, disassembling, and transporting the under-material 3, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, an appropriate number of sheets, for example, two rows as shown and four divisions for each row, a convenience of 8 It can be divided into one block 3a.

In order to improve the drainage of the game field 1, a water-permeable material is used as the artificial lawn 2, and a water hole and / or a water groove (not shown) can be provided in the under material 3 for drainage. It can be configured.

An outer frame 4 is installed around the game field 1 as shown in FIG. The outer frame 4 is for preventing a ball (made of plastic, about 60 mm in diameter) used in the game from jumping out of the field. For example, the outer frame 4 has a width of about 8 to 20 cm and a height of about 6 to 10 cm. I have it.

Gates 5 are formed on the outer frame 4 at positions corresponding to the pockets found in the pocket billiards, that is, at six positions between each corner and the midpoint on the long side.

In consideration of convenience during assembly, disassembly, and transportation, the outer frame 4 has six pockets 5 whose edges are cut off, and two frame members 4A for short sides and a frame member 4B for long sides are provided. It is composed of 6 and 4 in total.

A cushion edge 7 is formed on the upper portion of the inner wall of the outer frame 4 in order to alleviate the impact force of the ball that has collided during the game and improve the rolling of the bounced ball. In this case, the entire outer frame 4 or the inner wall portion thereof may be made of a cushioning material, for example, a rubber material obtained by hardening rubber chips with a binder.

When the entire outer frame 4 is made of a cushioning material as shown in the figure, the upper surface of the outer frame 4 is made of a hard material (not shown) such as wood or hard plastic for the purpose of surface protection. You may make it cover using.

FIG. 4 is an enlarged view showing the structure of the joint portion with the outer frame 4, the artificial grass 2 and the under member 3. A nut 8b is embedded and fixed in the under member 3 in a non-rotating state in advance, and the bolt 8a is screwed into the nut 8b through insertion holes 9 and 10 formed in the outer frame 4 and the artificial grass 2 in advance. Then, the outer frame 4, the artificial lawn 2 and the under member 3 can be integrally joined by tightening.

The tightening and fixing portions using the bolt nuts 8a and 8b as described above may be provided at two positions at least at both ends of the frame members 4A and 4B.

When assembling the outer frame 4 from the six frame members 4A and 4B, the pair of frame members 4A, 4B or 4B, 4B facing each other with the pocket 5 interposed therebetween are connected to each other, for example, at the outer side. The outer frame 4 can be completely assembled from the six frame members 4A and 4B by applying and connecting. In this case, if a cushion layer 6a (see FIG. 5) is provided on the inner surface of the metal fitting 6, the metal fitting 6 can also serve as a ball stopper. The connection of the frame members by the connecting metal fittings may be performed on the top surface portion instead of the illustrated outer portion.

As shown in FIG. 5, the floor surface of the gate 5 is protected from the vicinity of the entrance so that the ball can be easily gated in and the ball once gated in does not return to the field again. A gentle slope 5a can be attached toward the back. FIG. 6 shows a situation in which the game is enjoyed. Like the pocket billiard, the game uses 15 balls a numbered from 1 to 15 and one cue ball a ′, and the cue ball a ′ uses the stick b in the same manner as a gate ball. It is hit toward one ball a selected by using.

As shown in FIG. 1, in the field 1 and the outer frame 4, similar to the pocket billiard table, the spots 11 such as a foot spot, a center spot, and a head spot, and the position and angle of the ball are used as a reference for calculation. You can add points such as 12

The competition is, for example, 1. 1. The point where the competitors enter the field to compete. The game is performed according to the same rules as for pocket billiards, except that the bean a'is hit by the head b ₁ of the stick b, and the points are competed.

[0025]

[Effect of device]

 The game equipment of the present invention allows you to enjoy the atmosphere of a gate ball by hitting a bean ball toward one selected ball with a stick, and the other is performed according to the rules of pocket billiards, so the atmosphere of billiards You can also enjoy and enjoy the game regardless of age or sex.
