DESCRIPCIÓN  DESCRIPTION
Cesta para el juego de pelota vasca. Objeto de la invención Basket for the Basque ball game. Object of the invention
En el juego de la pelota vasca existen tres modalidades: la cesta-punta, el remonte y el plaza libre (joko garbi) que se juegan utilizando como herramienta una cesta de pelota. En la cesta-punta la pelota no se devuelve directamente con la herramienta, sino que primero se recoge con la cesta y tras tomar impulso se devuelve hacia el frontón; mientras que en el remonte la pelota se golpea a la altura de la mano y se le hace remontar la cesta hasta salir por la punta, efectuando un movimiento continuo en el que la pelota nunca puede detenerse; y para finalizar en el joko garbi se recibe la pelota y se lanza con mínimo de tiempo de retención todo en un gesto continuo de vaivén. In the game of the Basque ball there are three modalities: the basket-tip, the ski lift and the free place (joko garbi) that are played using a ball basket as a tool. In the basket-tip the ball is not returned directly with the tool, but first it is collected with the basket and after taking momentum it is returned towards the pediment; while in the ski lift the ball is hit at the height of the hand and the basket is made to go up to the end, making a continuous movement in which the ball can never stop; and to finish in the joko garbi the ball is received and thrown with minimum retention time all in a continuous swinging gesture.
La cesta empleada para el juego de la pelota vasca en estas modalidades es una especie de pala cóncava que tiene forma de uña, la cual es sujetada por el jugador normalmente mediante un guante cosido en el extremo proximal de la pala, que se fija además con la ayuda de una cinta atada en la terminación posterior que esta posee, denominada taco. El objeto de la invención es una cesta de estas características realizada, a diferencia de las tradicionales, en su totalidad en materiales metálicos y sintéticos. Antecedentes de la invención The basket used for the game of the Basque ball in these modalities is a kind of concave blade that is shaped like a nail, which is normally held by the player by means of a glove sewn on the proximal end of the blade, which is also fixed with the help of a tape tied in the subsequent termination that it possesses, called taco. The object of the invention is a basket of these characteristics made, unlike the traditional ones, entirely in metallic and synthetic materials. Background of the invention
Una cesta tradicional se realiza básicamente con tiras de castaño y mimbre. Lo habitual es que la caja de una cesta lleve del orden de trece costillas longitudinales de castaño que discurren desde la parte proximal, donde se agarra, hasta la punta de la cesta situada evidentemente en el extremo distal. Estas costillas se tejen con mimbre, formando así el típico cuerpo de cesta punta convencional y conocido. En el documento ES-U0025679 se describe una cesta punta y cesta remonte en el juego de la pelota vasca de estas características. Este tipo de cestas convencionales, al estar fabricados de forma artesanal tiene un precio muy elevado. Es difícil lograr dos cestas iguales y al tratarse de elementos como madera, fibras vegetales y cuero resultan frágiles, muy susceptibles a las condiciones climatológicas y requieren un mantenimiento y cuidado costoso. Su vida útil es reducida llegando en algunos casos a quedar inservibles por rotura en pocas jornadas de uso. En estas circunstancias el precio del material produce un efecto disuasorio. Por estos y otros motivos, han surgido varios desarrollos de cestas realizadas total o parcialmente de materiales sintéticos, entre las que podemos encontrar en la literatura de patentes las siguientes: A traditional basket is basically made with strips of chestnut and wicker. Typically, the box of a basket has the order of thirteen longitudinal chestnut ribs that run from the proximal part, where it is grasped, to the tip of the basket obviously located at the distal end. These ribs are woven with wicker, thus forming the typical conventional and known tip basket body. Document ES-U0025679 describes a tip basket and ski lift basket in the Basque ball game of these characteristics. This type of conventional baskets, being manufactured by hand, has a very high price. It is difficult to achieve two equal baskets and being elements such as wood, vegetable fibers and leather are fragile, very susceptible to weather conditions and require expensive maintenance and care. Its useful life is reduced in some cases becoming unusable due to breakage in a few days of use. In these circumstances the price of the material produces a deterrent effect. For these and other reasons, several developments of baskets made totally or partially of synthetic materials have emerged, among which we can find in the patent literature the following:
En el documento ES1 01 91 36 se describe una cesta mixta, en la que la estructura en forma de aro y de la manopla conforma un cuerpo monopieza moldeado en un material sintético de gran resistencia, que proporciona soporte para confeccionar sobre él el cuerpo de la pala, que se realiza trenzando costillas de castaño, al estilo tradicional. El documento ES21 19666 del propio solicitante describe una cesta punta que comprende una estructura en forma de aro, que discurren desde la empuñadura a la punta, en los que enlaza la caja que está formada por una red de material sintético que se ata en toda la periferia de la abertura y define un receptáculo posterior, que permite recibir y dar salida a la pelota. A mixed basket is described in document ES1 01 91 36, in which the hoop-shaped structure and the mitt form a single-piece body molded in a high strength synthetic material, which provides support for making the body of the shovel, which is made by braiding chestnut ribs, in the traditional style. The document ES21 19666 of the applicant himself describes a tip basket comprising a ring-shaped structure, which runs from the handle to the tip, in which the box which is formed by a network of synthetic material that is attached throughout the whole periphery of the opening and defines a rear receptacle, which allows to receive and output the ball.
En el documento ES2140271 se detalla una chistera para la práctica de juegos de pelota, que comporta una estructura soporte y una caja ahuecada y alargada tradicional, unida y solidarizada con la estructura, que se realiza en un material compuesto que presenta una rigidez adaptada, comprendiendo esta caja en su cara interna un revestimiento relativamente elástico y que comporta unos motivos en relieve repartidos en su superficie. Document ES2140271 details a top hat for the practice of ball games, which includes a support structure and a traditional hollow and elongated box, joined and in solidarity with the structure, which is made of a composite material that has adapted rigidity, comprising This box on its inner face is a relatively elastic lining and that includes relief motifs spread across its surface.
El documento ES221 5424 describe una cesta para la práctica de cesta punta, constituida por una pieza acanalada de material plástico que define las zonas de lanzamiento, recepción y de acoplamiento de la mano, que está rematada a lo largo de sus bordes por un nervio continuo que le proporciona rigidez. Document ES221 5424 describes a basket for the practice of a tip basket, consisting of a corrugated piece of plastic material that defines the areas of launch, reception and coupling of the hand, which is topped along its edges by a continuous rib It provides stiffness.
Los problemas de durabilidad y ¡os intentos por industrializar ¡a fabricación parecen superados con este tipo de materiales, pero persiste el problema de proporcionarle a la caja de la cesta, que conforma las zonas de recepción y lanzamiento de ¡a pelota de una cierta flexibilidad, que si se consigue con las cestas tradicionales, lo que ha impedido una mayor aceptación por parte de los pelotaris. The problems of durability and the attempts to industrialize manufacturing seem to be overcome with this type of materials, but the problem persists in providing the basket box, which forms the reception and launch areas of the ball of a certain flexibility, which if achieved with traditional baskets, which has prevented a greater acceptance by the players.
Descripción de la invención Description of the invention
Los inconvenientes citados son en definitiva los que han motivado la creación de una cesta como la preconizada en la presente invención, que está conformada por al menos tres piezas montadas de tal forma que la cesta presenta un comportamiento dinámico en el desarrollo del juego, permitiendo mejorar prestaciones específicas del mismo. Esta cesta está realizada en su totalidad en materiales sintéticos y/o metálicos de distinta naturaleza, que permiten también reducir sensiblemente el precio de fabricación del producto, asegurando al mismo tiempo una mayor duración de la cesta, con lo cual el gasto en material por partido se reduce muy sensiblemente. The aforementioned disadvantages are those that have motivated the creation of a basket like the one recommended in the present invention, which is made up of at least three pieces mounted in such a way that the basket has a dynamic behavior in the development of the game, allowing to improve specific benefits of it. This basket is made entirely of synthetic and / or metallic materials of different nature, which also allow to significantly reduce the price of manufacture of the product, while ensuring a longer duration of the basket, thereby spending on material per game It reduces very noticeably.
La cesta aquí preconizada comprende una estructura rígida, que constituye la embocadura de la misma y que está conformada convenientemente a semejanza de los aros y punta en forma de herradura de una cesta convencional, que se cierra en el extremo proximal con una pieza transversal, que también denominaremos taco por su equivalencia con la cesta convencional. The basket here recommended comprises a rigid structure, which constitutes the mouth of the same and is conveniently shaped like the horseshoe-shaped hoops and tip of a conventional basket, which is closed at the proximal end with a transverse piece, which We will also call taco because of its equivalence with the conventional basket.
A esta estructura rígida se le acopla una pieza a modo de pala, de material rígido o semirrígido, que presenta una forma acanalada, de profundidad variable, siendo esta pieza menos profunda en el extremo distal o punta de la cesta, aumentando en profundidad conforme avanzamos hacia la zona media de la pieza, para ir progresivamente reduciendo de nuevo en profundidad según avanzamos hacia el extremo proximal de la pieza o zona próxima al taco. Esta pala se realiza preferiblemente con tejido de carbón y aramida, impregnado con resinas epoxi, tiene un recorrido longitudinal que se asemeja al recorrido que tiene la costilla central en una cesta de mimbre convencional. Dicha pala se fija en sus extremos a los extremos de la estructura rígida descrita anteriormente coincidiendo los extremos distal y proximal de ambas piezas. Además, una serie de tensores transversales, cada uno de ellos unido por uno de sus extremos a uno de los aros y que pasa por encima de la pala para unirse al otro aro, permiten la fijación de esta pala a lo largo de los aros en distancias variables. Esta configuración de estructura rígida, pala y tensores permite que la estructura rígida y pala interactúe de forma dinámica tanto cuando la fuerza aplicada por el jugador es transmitida a la pelota durante el lanzamiento, como cuando la pelota es recibida por el jugador; además esta configuración de piezas permite ajustar o personalizar la flexibilidad de la cesta a las preferencias del jugador. This rigid structure is coupled with a blade-like piece, of rigid or semi-rigid material, which has a fluted shape, of varying depth, this piece being less deep at the distal end or tip of the basket, increasing in depth as we go towards the middle area of the piece, to progressively reduce again in depth as we move towards the proximal end of the piece or area near the block. This blade is preferably made of carbon and aramid fabric, impregnated with epoxy resins, has a longitudinal path that resembles the path of the central rib in a conventional wicker basket. Said blade is fixed at its ends to the ends of the rigid structure described above coinciding with the distal and proximal ends of both pieces. In addition, a series of transverse tensioners, each of them joined by one of its ends to one of the rings and that passes over the blade to join the other ring, allow the fixing of this blade along the rings in variable distances This rigid structure, blade and tensioner configuration allows the rigid structure and blade to interact in a way dynamic both when the force applied by the player is transmitted to the ball during the throw, and when the ball is received by the player; Besides this configuration of pieces allows to adjust or customize the flexibility of the basket to the preferences of the player.
El conjunto anteriormente descrito se complementa con una pieza cóncava, a modo de caja, situada en la zona media de la cesta, entre la pala y la estructura rígida, que se fija por sus bordes laterales a los aros de la estructura rígida cerrando por ambos lados el hueco existen en la zona media de la cesta entre la pala y la estructura rígida. Dicha pieza cóncava realizado en material semirrígido y/o flexible constituye una zona de impacto directo y una zona de transición entre la zona de impacto y salida de la pelota hacia la punta. Finalmente se fija un guante a la manopla en la zona proximal y por la cara posterior, donde tradicionalmente se fija los guantes a las cestas. El guante de configuración similar al guante tradicional y fabricado en materiales sintéticos y/o cuero y la tradicional cinta constituyen los elementos utilizados para amarrar y fijar la mano del jugador a la cesta. The set described above is complemented by a concave, box-like piece, located in the middle of the basket, between the blade and the rigid structure, which is fixed by its lateral edges to the rings of the rigid structure closing by both The hollow sides exist in the middle of the basket between the shovel and the rigid structure. Said concave piece made of semi-rigid and / or flexible material constitutes a direct impact zone and a transition zone between the impact zone and the exit of the ball towards the tip. Finally, a glove is attached to the mitten in the proximal area and on the back, where the gloves are traditionally fixed to the baskets. The glove of configuration similar to the traditional glove and made of synthetic materials and / or leather and the traditional tape constitute the elements used to tie and fix the player's hand to the basket.
La cesta de la invención permite su fabricación de forma industrial, no artesanal, pero personalizada dependiendo de las características de cada modalidad de juego y de las preferencias de cada jugador, pudiendo adaptarse la movilidad y flexibilidad de la pala que define el fondo de la caja de la cesta, al variar la tensión que ejercen los tensores transversales que la sujetan a los aros de la estructura y su posición a lo largo de los mismos. Descripción de las figuras The basket of the invention allows its manufacture in an industrial way, not handmade, but personalized depending on the characteristics of each game mode and the preferences of each player, being able to adapt the mobility and flexibility of the blade that defines the bottom of the box of the basket, by varying the tension exerted by the transverse tensioners that hold it to the hoops of the structure and their position along them.

Realización preferente de la invención Preferred Embodiment of the Invention
Tal y como se aprecia en las figuras, la estructura rígida (1 ) está conformada por un aro arqueado y doblado convenientemente en la punta en forma de herradura. Esta estructura tiene la forma clásica de la horquilla de una cesta convencional, cerrado en el extremo proximal al jugador por una pieza transversal denominada taco (1 1 ), por su equivalencia con una cesta convencional, que sobresale ligeramente por ambos laterales a fin de conseguir fijar la mano en el guante (5) mediante una cinta. As can be seen in the figures, the rigid structure (1) is formed by an arched ring and conveniently bent at the horseshoe-shaped tip. This structure has the classic fork shape of a conventional basket, closed at the end proximal to the player by a transverse piece called a block (1 1), due to its equivalence with a conventional basket, which protrudes slightly from both sides in order to achieve fix the hand on the glove (5) using a tape.
En la figura 3 se aprecia la pala (2) que conforma el fondo de la cesta propiamente dicha. Esta pieza se fabrica en un material rígido o semirrígido y presenta un recorrido semejante a la de la costilla central de una cesta convencional de mimbre en la que su concavidad progresa desde la punta (p) a lo largo de la zona de lanzamiento, presentando su máxima profundidad en la zona de la caja (c), para a partir de ahí reducir nuevamente su profundidad conforme se aproxima al extremo anterior (e) por el que se agarra la cesta. Figure 3 shows the blade (2) that forms the bottom of the basket itself. This piece is manufactured in a rigid or semi-rigid material and has a similar path to that of the central rib of a conventional wicker basket in which its concavity progresses from the tip (p) along the launch area, presenting its maximum depth in the area of the box (c), to then reduce its depth again as it approaches the anterior end (e) by which the basket is seized.
La pala (2) se fija por sus extremos a los extremos de la estructura rígida (1 ), quedando separada de ésta a lo largo de toda la zona central coincidiendo con la caja de la cesta. A lo largo de toda esta zona intermedia la pala (2) y la estructura (1 ) se relacionan mediante una serie de tensores transversales (4), cuyos extremos se unen en los laterales de la estructura (1 ), pasando por el exterior de la pala (2). Estos tensores (4) se colocan a distancias variables, preferentemente más juntos en la zona posterior o de lanzamiento y más separados hacia el fondo o caja de la cesta, para permitir ajustar o personalizar la flexibilidad de la cesta a las preferencias del jugador, así como conseguir un comportamiento dinámico, tanto cuando la fuerza aplicada por el jugador es transmitida a la pelota durante el lanzamiento, como cuando la pelota es recibida por el jugador. The blade (2) is fixed at its ends to the ends of the rigid structure (1), being separated from it along the entire central area coinciding with the basket box. Throughout this entire intermediate zone the blade (2) and the structure (1) are related by a series of transverse tensioners (4), whose ends meet at the sides of the structure (1), passing through the outside of the shovel (2). These tensioners (4) are placed at varying distances, preferably more together in the back or launch area and more separated towards the bottom or box of the basket, to allow to adjust or customize the flexibility of the basket to the preferences of the player, as well as to achieve a dynamic behavior, both when the force applied by the player It is transmitted to the ball during throwing, such as when the ball is received by the player.
La pala (2) presenta desde la zona de donde se inicia el lanzamiento (c) hacia la zona de salida de la pelota (p) por la punta de la cesta unas ranuras longitudinales (21 ), que proporcionan la deformación necesaria en esta zona en el momento de imprimir fuerza a la pelota aportando sensaciones similares a la que produce la cesta de mimbre convencional. Estas ranuras (21 ) son de longitud variable a fin de adaptarse a las preferencias del jugador. The blade (2) has longitudinal grooves (21) from the area where the throwing begins (c) towards the exit area of the ball (p), which provide the necessary deformation in this area at the time of printing force to the ball providing sensations similar to that produced by the conventional wicker basket. These slots (21) are of variable length in order to adapt to the preferences of the player.
En la figura 5 se muestra la pieza cóncava (3) que se sitúa en la zona media de la cesta (denominada caja), entre la pala (2) y la estructura rígida (1 ), que se fija por sus bordes laterales a los aros de la estructura rígida (1 ), quedando retenida por la acción de apriete que ejercen los tensores (4) sobre la pala (2), contra la estructura rígida (1 ). Esta pieza (3) cierra por ambos lados el hueco existen en esta zona media de la cesta entre la pala (2) y la estructura rígida (1 ) y constituye la de impacto directo y una la de transición entre la zona de impacto y salida de la pelota hacia la punta. Esta pieza cóncava (3) está realizada en material semirrígido y/o flexible. Figure 5 shows the concave piece (3) that is located in the middle of the basket (called a box), between the blade (2) and the rigid structure (1), which is fixed by its lateral edges to the rings of the rigid structure (1), being retained by the tightening action exerted by the tensioners (4) on the blade (2), against the rigid structure (1). This piece (3) closes the gap on both sides in this middle area of the basket between the blade (2) and the rigid structure (1) and constitutes the direct impact and a transition between the impact zone and exit from the ball to the tip. This concave piece (3) is made of semi-rigid and / or flexible material.
El guante se fija en la zona proximal donde tradicionalmente se fija los guantes a las cestas. El guante de configuración similar al guante tradicional y fabricado en materiales sintéticos y/o cuero y la tradicional cinta constituyen los elementos utilizados para amarrar y fijar la mano del jugador a la cesta. The glove is fixed in the proximal area where the gloves are traditionally fixed to the baskets. The glove of configuration similar to the traditional glove and made of synthetic materials and / or leather and the traditional tape constitute the elements used to tie and fix the player's hand to the basket.
En la figura 7 se observa una funda (6), que envuelve la estructura rígida (1 ), que facilita el anclaje de los tensores (4) en dicha estructura rígida. Esta funda preferentemente lleva un volante (61 ), orientado hacia el interior de la cesta, que contribuye a fijar la pieza cóncava (3) dentro de la pala (2). Figure 7 shows a cover (6), which wraps around the rigid structure (1), which facilitates the anchoring of the tensioners (4) in said rigid structure. This cover preferably has a handwheel (61), oriented towards the inside of the basket, which helps to fix the concave piece (3) inside the blade (2).
