Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention is to hit a gate ball, golf ball, etc. on the floor of an indoor room with a gate ball stick or a golf putter, and roll the ball toward the target gate. This invention relates to a target gate for practicing passing between the pedestals supported by the gate by appropriately opening and closing the intervals.

Lately, gateball has become popular among elderly people, but due to differences in game experience and amount of practice, their skills have varied, making it difficult for them to participate in the game, or even if they do, it's not fun. An increasing number of players are having trouble practicing because of time and place restrictions. The purpose of the target gate of the present invention is to enable such players to practice while having fun, either alone or with their families, on a smooth surface at home or in the garden.

The gate of the present invention can be used on indoor floors, such as tatami mats, wooden floors, carpets, or artificial turf, and can be used indoors as long as it is reasonably smooth. In such a place with a certain amount of space, a target gate is placed at a certain distance from the ball position, and the tip of the pedestal is set at a certain distance depending on the skill of the person.
Then, hit the gateball with a stick from a certain distance and practice repeatedly so that the ball passes within the distance between the pedestals. The situation is shown in FIG. Once your skills have improved to a certain extent, you can narrow the interval. If you practice this way repeatedly, your skill at passing through the gate will improve each time.

Outside of this, you can also use this gate to practice your golf putter indoors. The intervals between the pedestals are set to be the same as the hole diameter of the golf hole,
If you hit a golf ball with a putter, you can also practice putting. Therefore, if there is a gate of the present invention,
Mainly indoors, it can be enjoyed by the whole family, including the elderly, adults, and children.

The present invention is a combination of a U-shaped metal or synthetic resin gate and two metal pedestals into which the legs at both ends of the gate can be rotatably inserted and supported. The pedestal is composed of
Soft rubber or foam rubber is pasted on the bottom to prevent slipping, and the width of the gap formed between these two pedestals for passing the ball can be adjusted by freely rotating with respect to the gate. It is characterized in that it is provided in a long length and further includes a baffle part on the top surface of the pedestal that prevents the ball from passing over the baffle part.

Examples of this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

The gate 1 of the present invention is made according to the dimensions of a gate for gateball, and the distance between both ends of the U-shape is 210 mm. The gate is made of metal or synthetic resin. A hole 5 matching the cross-sectional shape of the leg of the gate is made at the end of the pedestal 2 that supports the gate, and the leg of the gate is inserted into the hole. The hole is large enough to allow the leg of the gate to be easily inserted by hand. Alternatively, the gate 1 may be fixed to the pedestal 2 with screws.

The pedestal 2 must support the U-shaped gate and must have enough weight to prevent the gate from falling when hit by a ball. For example, it is preferable to make it from a heavy metal or alloy such as gunmetal or iron. Various shapes can be considered for the pedestal, but in this embodiment, at least two or more holes 5 are formed on the surface of the pedestal, and the leg of the U-shaped gate is inserted into one hole at the end. It's like this. Another hole 5 or two or more holes 5 are provided to prevent the ball from passing over the pedestal of the gate if the ball misses its aim and attempts to pass over the pedestal. 1/ of the outer diameter of the gate ball to prevent
It is preferable to form the baffle part by inserting a pin having a length not less than 2. By inserting one or two pins in this way, the ball will not roll over the base. If there is only one pin, a plate 6 may be provided as shown in FIG. In this embodiment, a pin is inserted into the pedestal to form a baffle part that prevents the ball from passing over the pedestal, but as shown in Figure 4, the height of the pedestal itself may be increased to create a baffle part. It is possible, and is not limited to this example.

Another feature is that the pedestal is made of heavy metal, so if the floor is relatively soft such as wood, tatami, or plastic tiles, there is a risk of damaging the floor. By attaching a thin soft rubber sheet or a foamed rubber sheet to the bottom of the gate, it will protect the floor surface and have a non-slip effect, making the gate itself stable and preventing the balls from falling onto the gate itself, the pedestal, or the pedestal. Even if the gate is hit by a pin, it will prevent the gate from falling or shifting.

The target gate of the present invention consists of a gate and a pedestal with a rubber sheet pasted to the bottom, and is easy to assemble, making it a gate that anyone of any age or gender can play with, both indoors and outdoors. In addition, it is a practice ball target gate that allows you to change the distance between the gates by freely changing the position of the pedestal, allowing the whole family to enjoy not only gateball practice but also golf putter practice together. This is a highly effective target gate that you can enjoy.
