Game - u. Sports equipment

Game u.Sportgeräte in combination ball and racket, ball-u. Safety gear are known in various designs, e.g. there are tennis u. Badminton, Klettballspiele or throw-u. Fighting games consisting of a ball and associated basket-like safety gears.

In spite of the variety of designs, it is generally always about the same playing possibilities. These games are also often very voluminous. Although game and sports equipment of this type are very popular, they often do not like to be used for reasons of space, e.g. taken with the weekend excursion.

The invention has the task of a handy, easy to transport game u. Create sports equipment that combines the well-known game elements and game variations with other new interesting game options that require and encourage the player's reaction and skill.

In addition, the possibility should be given, alone; or to play with several people together. This has been inventively achieved in that a novel catch u. Throwing racket has been developed, which consists essentially of two elongated shaped, mutually movably connected frame side parts, between which a flexible catching surface, e.g. fabric, dragon foil or net, preferably attached to the side parts movable.

The side parts end in the lower area with a gripping zone and or a handle. By hand action on the gripping zone or on the handle one or both side parts are preferably moved against spring pressure, so that the catch surface can be spread or folded.

The associated flying object, preferably a ball, can with this novel litter u. Racquet thrown, caught or captured by snap action from any position flying above.

Also, the flying object (eg ball) can be easily lifted from the ground. This results in many new ways to play for a single player. For example, targeted at wall surfaces. Throw up and catch. Grab the flying or bouncing ball.

A special feature of the novel litter u. Fangspieles is that when catching the ball due to the movable side parts of the impacting ball automatically behind the approximately V-shaped design throw u.Pangschläger, in which after the impact of the ball by the impact force of the ball, the side parts are guided to each other and the ball is at least partially enclosed. As a result, an unintentional rebound of the ball is prevented and ensures safe capture of the ball.

It is envisaged that the side panels of the flight u.fangvorrichtung be locked either in use position or after use, e.g. by moving a grip sleeve, by Velcro device; or held together by a simple rubber ring.

When folded, the flight u. Catching only little space in

Claim because the flexible catching surface is rolled up.

The flight u.Fangspiel missile preferably Ball be assigned in different sizes.

Depending on the size of the ball, the ball gets caught in the upper or lower area of the throw u. Fang racket.

To increase the catch area is also thought of between safety gear and gripping or grip zone

Spacer e.g. To use pipe or the

Frame side parts extendable to design.

For decoration and play opportunities at night is also thought of throw-u. Safety gear and or the flying object with lighting elements, e.g. LEDS and or sound elements z.Teil also serve the orientation to design.

According to the invention, the novel flight and catching game is also designed so that the flexible catch surface is taut in the case of spread locked sides and is thus used as a racket and is therefore used, for example. can be played with a shuttlecock.

It is also conceivable that the flexible safety gear can be rolled up like a roller blind.

Here then the side panels are designed accordingly.

Further embodiments can be found in the claims and or the drawings. figure description
