Description

RECOGEPELOTAS BALL BOY
Descripción Description
Sector de la técnica Technical sector
La presente invención se refiere a un recogepelotas, especialmente ventajoso cuando se recoge una gran cantidad de pelotas en entrenamientos de pádel, tenis u otros deportes similares. The present invention relates to a ball catcher, especially advantageous when collecting a large number of balls during paddle tennis, tennis or other similar sports training.
Estado de la técnica State of the art
Se conoce en el estado de la técnica el uso de máquinas para recoger pelotas tras un entrenamiento de tenis o similar. Un ejemplo se aprecia en ES1115355U. Este ejemplo es bastante eficaz en la recogida, pero requiere una serie de acciones por parte del usuario, principalmente la presión del gatillo por cada pelota. Por lo tanto, para una cantidad elevada de pelotas es un trabajo importante y es preferible disponer de un sistema automático. The use of machines to collect balls after tennis training or the like is known in the state of the art. An example can be seen in ES1115355U. This example is quite effective at collecting, but requires a series of actions on the part of the user, mainly pressing the trigger for each ball. Therefore, for a large number of balls it is a significant job and it is preferable to have an automatic system.
El solicitante no conoce ningún dispositivo similar al reivindicado. The applicant does not know of any device similar to the one claimed.
Breve explicación de la invención Brief explanation of the invention
La invención consiste en un recogepelotas según la reivindicación independiente. The invention consists of a ball boy according to the independent claim.
El recogepelotas está formado por un depósito de pelotas con un asa, al menos dos ruedas en un eje y una abertura inferior. El eje está dispuesto en la abertura y posee una serie de vástagos radiales. Por su parte, el depósito dispone de unos topes entre los vástagos de liberación de las pelotas. Así, los vástagos atrapan las pelotas, las introducen en el depósito y los topes las liberan, impidiendo que den la vuelta completa al eje. Los vástagos han de estar suficientemente separados para que las pelotas se puedan situar entre ellos. The ball catcher consists of a ball container with a handle, at least two wheels on an axle and a lower opening. The shaft is arranged in the opening and has a series of radial rods. For its part, the tank has stops between the ball release rods. Thus, the stems trap the balls, introduce them into the tank and the stops release them, preventing them from completely turning the shaft. The stems must be sufficiently separated so that the balls can be placed between them.
Para facilitar la estabilidad del depósito, preferiblemente comprende ruedas auxiliares. Idealmente comprende uno o más embragues de desacoplamiento de las ruedas y los vástagos en un sentido de giro, de forma que los vástagos no extraen las pelotas del depósito. To facilitate the stability of the tank, it preferably includes auxiliary wheels. Ideally it comprises one or more wheel disengagement clutches and stems in a direction of rotation, so that the stems do not extract the balls from the reservoir.
Otras soluciones particulares se incluyen en las reivindicaciones dependientes y se describen en detalle más adelante. Other particular solutions are included in the dependent claims and are described in detail below.
Descripción de los dibujos Description of the drawings
Para complementar la descripción que se está realizando y con objeto de ayudar a una mejor comprensión de las características del invento, se acompaña un juego de dibujos en donde con carácter ilustrativo y no limitativo, se ha representado lo siguiente. To complement the description that is being made and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, a set of drawings is attached where, for illustrative and non-limiting purposes, the following has been represented.
Figura 1: Sección lateral esquemática de un ejemplo de realización. Figure 1: Schematic side section of an example embodiment.
Modos de realización de la invención Modes of embodiment of the invention
A continuación, se pasa a describir de manera breve un modo de realización de la invención, como ejemplo ilustrativo y no limitativo de ésta. Next, a way of carrying out the invention is briefly described, as an illustrative and non-limiting example of it.
En la figura 1 se aprecia un ejemplo de realización donde formado por un depósito (1) con un asa (2) y unas ruedas (3) principales en un eje (4) común. El depósito (1) puede tener ruedas auxiliares, por ejemplo del tipo auto-orientable, es decir, giratorias sobre un eje vertical excéntrico. Así, cuando se disponen ruedas auxiliares el depósito (1) es estable por sí mismo. Figure 1 shows an example of an embodiment where it is formed by a tank (1) with a handle (2) and main wheels (3) on a common axis (4). The tank (1) may have auxiliary wheels, for example of the self-orienting type, that is, rotating on an eccentric vertical axis. Thus, when auxiliary wheels are fitted, the tank (1) is stable by itself.
El depósito (1) tiene una abertura (5) en la zona próxima al eje (4) y por la que se puede acceder a éste. La abertura (5) tiene una altura superior al de las pelotas para el que está diseñado el recogepelotas. Asimismo, el eje (4) se dispone sobre el suelo a mayor altura que la altura de las pelotas, de forma que pueden pasar por debajo. El eje (4) posee una serie de vástagos (6) que preferiblemente son rectos y que son movidos por el eje (4) con el giro arrastrado de las ruedas (3) al mover el recogepelotas. The tank (1) has an opening (5) in the area close to the shaft (4) and through which it can be accessed. The opening (5) has a height greater than that of the balls for which the ball boy is designed. Likewise, the axis (4) is arranged above the ground at a higher height than the height of the balls, so that they can pass underneath. The axle (4) has a series of stems (6) that are preferably straight and that are moved by the axle (4) with the dragged rotation of the wheels (3) when moving the ball collector.
Así, durante el avance del recogepelotas que produce el giro de las ruedas (3), los vástagos (6) se ven arrastrados y van tomando las pelotas que pasan por la abertura para introducirlas en el depósito (1). Una serie de topes (7) fijos entre los vástagos (6) impiden que las pelotas den la vuelta completa al eje y se separen para su introducción en el depósito (1). Si los topes (7) se disponen adecuadamente, los vástagos (6) pueden no ser rectos. Thus, during the advance of the ball catcher that produces the rotation of the wheels (3), the rods (6) are dragged and pick up the balls that pass through the opening. to introduce them into the tank (1). A series of stops (7) fixed between the stems (6) prevent the balls from making a complete revolution around the shaft and separating to be introduced into the tank (1). If the stops (7) are properly arranged, the stems (6) may not be straight.
Para facilitar la captura de las pelotas, y como se aprecia en la figura 1 , la parte inferior del depósito (1), al menos en la zona próxima a la abertura (5), está muy próxima al suelo. To facilitate the capture of the balls, and as can be seen in Figure 1, the lower part of the tank (1), at least in the area close to the opening (5), is very close to the ground.
Las ruedas (3) pueden desacoplarse de los vástagos (6), por ejemplo del eje, mediante un embrague cuando se produzca el giro en el otro sentido, de forma que los vástagos (6) no pueden extraer las pelotas del depósito (1). The wheels (3) can be decoupled from the stems (6), for example from the axle, by means of a clutch when rotation occurs in the other direction, so that the stems (6) cannot extract the balls from the tank (1). .
Al igual que en el modelo de utilidad citado, es preferible asegurar que las pelotas se desvían hacia arriba tras pasar la abertura (5), de forma que no es fácil que se atasquen. As in the aforementioned utility model, it is preferable to ensure that the balls deflect upwards after passing the opening (5), so that they are not easy to get stuck.
