Embodiment Construction

[0015] refer to figure 1 -3. A bowling lane 10 of the present invention includes one or more lane sections 12 , a plurality of fasteners 14 and a plurality of plugs 16 . Each of the one or more fairway segments 12 has a first surface 18 , a second surface 20 and a plurality of connection points 22 . In one embodiment, each connection point 22 has a first hole 24, a second hole 26, and a third hole 28, all three holes being substantially concentric and each having a diameter. The first aperture 24 extends between the second surface 20 and the second aperture 26 . The second hole 26 extends between the first hole 24 and the third hole 28 . The third aperture 28 extends between the second aperture 26 and the first surface 18 . The diameter 30 of the third hole 28 is larger than the diameter 32 of the second hole 26 which is larger than the diameter 34 of the first hole 24 . A first shoulder 36 extends substantially radially between the first hole 24 and the second hole 26 , a...

Abstract

A bowling lane including one or more lane sections, fasteners and plugs. Each fairway segment has a first surface, a second surface and a plurality of connection points. In some embodiments, each attachment point has a first hole having a first diameter, a second hole having a second diameter extending a first axial length, and a third hole extending a first axial length. A third hole of two axial lengths. The first hole extends between the second surface and the second hole, the second hole extends between the first hole and the third hole, and the third hole extends between the second hole and the first surface. The third diameter is greater than the second diameter, and the second diameter is greater than the first diameter. Each fastener has a stem and a cap. The size of the cap matches the second hole. A fastener engages the lower deck through the first hole, thereby connecting the fairway section to the lower deck. Each plug has an axial length and is located in a third hole.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to bowling lanes, and more particularly to bowling lane apparatus. Background technique [0002] Bowling lanes generally include a proximal end and a pin end. The bowler sends a ball from the near end to the pin end. Bowling lanes are traditionally constructed of strips of hardwood fastened together to create a flat, smooth surface. Wooden fairways must be sanded and polished regularly to restore the desired flat and smooth surface. In order to avoid the necessary sanding, bowling lanes today often use an upper plate made of a laminate. In a new application, for example, the laminate may be mechanically attached to the underlying substrate. In one finishing application, the laminate can be mechanically attached to an existing wooden fairway. [0003] Regardless of the application, quality standards require bowling lanes to be flat. Therefore, the method of attachment between the laminate and the underlying ...
