Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sports equipment technology, specifically to a luminous basketball hoop backboard protective strip. Background Technology

[0002] Throughout the development of basketball, the protection around the backboard has always had many shortcomings, and traditional designs have obvious limitations in terms of functionality and user experience.

[0003] Early basketball backboard protection focused primarily on the structural strength of the backboard itself, with relatively weak protection for the corners of the rim. The rim, a crucial area for players' shooting and rebounding actions, lacked effective protection. During intense competition or high-speed drives to the rim, players were highly susceptible to collisions with the rim or surrounding hard components, leading to injuries to the head, shoulders, and other body parts. Such sports injuries caused by accidental collisions are common in basketball, posing a significant threat to players' health.

[0004] With increasing emphasis on sports safety, some simple protective devices have emerged, such as wrapping the basketball hoop with soft materials like rubber and sponge. However, these materials offer only limited cushioning and their protective effect is not ideal. Furthermore, they are prone to wear and tear and detachment over long-term use, requiring frequent replacement and increasing maintenance costs and workload. Moreover, they are functionally limited, providing only physical protection and offering no additional value in basketball scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0026] A flexible filler is disposed within the buffer cavity.

[0027] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0028] In this invention, during basketball, players often rush towards the basket for intense competition and shooting, and may accidentally collide with the rim or backboard edge. The light emitted by the LED strip can serve as a warning to some extent, making it easier for players to notice the basket's location when approaching it, thus avoiding accidents such as collisions and injuries due to poor visibility, ensuring the player's personal safety during the game, and reducing the risk of sports injuries.

[0029] The protective strip is installed within the mounting groove and abuts against the LED strip, primarily serving a physical protection function. When a player accidentally collides with the corner of the rim during a basketball game, the protective strip cushions the impact, reducing injuries caused by direct contact between the player's body and hard components such as the rim and connecting strips. It acts like a soft barrier, protecting the player's body parts, especially vulnerable areas like the head and shoulders, further enhancing the safety of the basketball hoop during use and reducing the probability of injury from accidental collisions.

[0030] The protective strip and the LED strip are tightly connected. On the one hand, the protective strip can fix and protect the LED strip, preventing it from shifting or being damaged when subjected to external impacts (such as basketball impacts or player collisions), thus ensuring the normal lighting function and lifespan of the LED strip. On the other hand, when the light emitted by the LED strip passes through the protective strip, it may produce a soft and uniform light effect, making the lighting and warning effects more ideal. The two work together to ensure safety while improving the overall visual experience and optimizing the usage environment around the basketball hoop. Attached Figure Description

[0038] Furthermore, in the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0039] Reference Figures 1-2The first embodiment of this utility model proposes a luminous basketball hoop backboard protective strip, including a connecting strip 1, which is disposed at the corner of the basketball hoop. The connecting strip 1 has a mounting groove 101 and a power connection hole 102, which are interconnected. The mounting groove 101 has an opening 103 facing the basketball hoop. A light-emitting strip 2 is disposed in the mounting groove 101 and passes through the power connection hole 102. A protective strip 3 is disposed in the mounting groove 101 and abuts against the light-emitting strip 2.

[0040] In this embodiment, the mounting groove 101 on the connecting strip 1 provides space for the core components of the entire protective strip, the light strip 2 and the protective strip 3. The design of its opening 103 facing the basket makes installation more convenient; during installation, the corresponding components can be directly placed into the groove from one side of the basket, facilitating assembly by construction personnel. Simultaneously, this orientation also facilitates subsequent maintenance and repair of internal components. The internal condition can be viewed and addressed simply by opening from the basket side, reducing the cumbersome steps of disassembling the entire protective strip and improving operability and maintenance convenience during use.

[0041] The power connection hole 102 is interconnected with the mounting slot 101, serving as a crucial connection point for the LED strip 2 to achieve its light-emitting function. The power connection hole 102 allows for an external power source, providing a stable power supply to the LED strip 2 and ensuring its continuous and stable illumination. Furthermore, this interconnected design makes the wiring connections neater and more concealed, avoiding potential safety hazards from exposed wires, such as damage caused by player collisions or pulling. It also enhances the overall cleanliness and aesthetics of the protective strip.

[0042] The LED strip 2 is installed within the mounting slot 101 and passes through the power connection hole 102. During basketball games or daily training, it emits light, providing excellent illumination. Especially in dimly lit indoor venues or outdoor basketball courts at night, the light emitted by the LED strip 2 can illuminate the area around the basket, helping players see the basket's position and the ball's trajectory more clearly, thus improving shooting accuracy. Furthermore, the emitted light creates a unique visual effect, providing players and spectators with a better gaming and viewing experience.

[0043] In basketball, players often rush towards the basket for intense competition and shooting, and may accidentally collide with the rim or backboard edge. The light emitted by the LED strip 2 can serve as a warning to some extent, making it easier for players to notice the basket's location when approaching it, thus avoiding accidents such as collisions and injuries due to poor visibility, ensuring the players' personal safety during the game, and reducing the risk of sports injuries.

[0044] The protective strip 3 is installed in the mounting groove 101 and abuts against the light strip 2, mainly serving a physical protection function. When a player accidentally collides with the corner of the basket during a basketball game, the protective strip 3 can buffer the impact force, reducing the injury caused by direct contact between the player's body and hard components such as the basket and connecting strip 1. It acts like a soft barrier to protect the player's body parts, especially vulnerable areas such as the head and shoulders, further enhancing the safety of the basketball hoop during use and reducing the probability of injury caused by accidental collisions.

[0045] The protective strip 3 is in close contact with the light strip 2. On the one hand, the protective strip 3 can fix and protect the light strip 2 to a certain extent, preventing it from shifting or being damaged when subjected to external impacts (such as basketball impacts, player collisions, etc.), thus ensuring the normal light-emitting function and service life of the light strip 2. On the other hand, when the light emitted by the light strip 2 passes through the protective strip 3, it may produce a soft and uniform light effect, making the lighting and warning effect more ideal. The two work together to ensure safety while improving the overall visual experience and optimizing the usage environment around the basketball hoop.

[0046] Adjusting the orientation of the opening 103 in the backboard protection strip of the illuminated basketball hoop will result in an unexpected optimization of the lighting effect. Originally, the opening 103 faced the basket, but after adjustment, it can direct the light from the light strip 2 towards the backboard.

[0047] The luminous light strip 2 is positioned within the mounting slot 101 and features a flexible light emission angle. When the opening 103 is reoriented, the light emitted by the strip can directly illuminate the surface of the backboard. This improvement is significant in dimly lit sports venues, such as outdoor basketball courts at night or indoor venues with limited lighting. Players can see the aiming area on the backboard more clearly when making shots, passes, or other movements, greatly improving the accuracy and fluidity of their movements.

[0048] Furthermore, the effective illumination of the backboards by the two light strips reduces the need for additional light sources at the backboard area. This not only lowers the venue's lighting costs and reduces power consumption but also avoids glare interference caused by excessive light sources, providing players with a more comfortable visual environment. At the same time, the simple lighting layout enhances the overall aesthetics of the court, making the basketball experience more focused and immersive. When playing on outdoor courts, the orientation of the opening 103 can be adjusted to ensure optimal lighting for athletes during training or play.

[0049] Furthermore, the mounting groove 101 has a connecting groove 104, the protective strip 3 is a light-transmitting strip, the protective strip 3 has a first protective part 301, a second protective part 302 and an abutting protective part 303, the first protective part 301 is inserted into the connecting groove 104, the first protective part 301 and the abutting protective part 303 are respectively disposed on both sides of the second protective part 302, and the abutting protective part 303 abuts against the light strip.

[0050] In this embodiment, the first protective part 301 of the protective strip 3 is snapped into the connecting groove 104 of the mounting groove 101. This snap-fit ​​connection provides a more stable fixing method. During basketball, the protective strip is frequently subjected to external forces such as basketball impacts and player collisions. Through the snap-fit ​​connection, the first protective part 301 can be firmly fixed in the connecting groove 104, making it less prone to displacement or falling off. This ensures the stability of the protective strip 3 within the mounting groove 101, making the entire protective strip structure more reliable and enabling it to continuously perform its protective and other related functions, maintaining its normal use on the basketball hoop.

[0051] The first protective part 301, the second protective part 302, and the abutting protective part 303 together constitute the protective strip 3, and are located in specific positions, forming a cooperative relationship. The first protective part 301 is fixed in the connecting groove 104 as a basic fixing part, the second protective part 302 is in the middle and plays a role in connection and buffering, and the abutting protective part 303 abuts against the light strip, which not only provides a certain degree of protection for the light strip, but also, in cooperation with other protective parts, can reasonably disperse external forces when subjected to force, jointly ensuring the integrity of the overall structure of the protective strip 3, enhancing the ability of the entire protective strip to cope with complex external force environments, and ensuring that it will not easily develop structural loosening problems during long-term use.

[0052] The protective strip 3, composed of three protective sections, provides protection from multiple directions. When a player accidentally collides with the protective strip at the corner of the rim, the first protective section 301, as the first part to bear the force, transfers the impact force to the second protective section 302. The second protective section 302 can use itself to cushion the impact, while the contact protective section 303, while in contact with the light strip, also participates in sharing the force, forming a multi-directional, multi-layered protective system. This effectively reduces the impact force on the player's body, further improves the protective strip's ability to protect the player, and reduces the risk of injury during sports.

[0053] The protective abutment part 303 abuts against the light strip, preventing external impact forces from directly acting on the light strip 2. In basketball scenarios, the impact of the basketball and the collision force of players may threaten the normal use and lifespan of the light strip 2. The protective abutment part 303 acts as a barrier, buffering and dispersing these external forces, preventing the light strip from being damaged by excessive impact, ensuring that the light strip 2 can continuously and stably emit light, maintaining its lighting and warning functions, and also extending the lifespan of the light strip 2, ensuring that all functional components of the entire protective strip can function properly.

[0054] The protective strip 3 is a light-transmitting strip, which allows the light emitted by the light strip 2 to be better transmitted to the outside through the protective strip 3. Furthermore, due to the reasonable layout and coordination of its three protective parts, the light can be more evenly scattered when passing through the protective strip 3, avoiding problems such as light blockage, excessive brightness or darkness in certain areas caused by an unreasonable protective strip structure. This creates a soft and uniform lighting effect, providing players on the basketball court with a clear field of vision, helping them accurately judge the position of the basket and the trajectory of the basketball, thus improving the experience and safety of basketball.

[0055] Furthermore, an air cavity 304 is provided between the first protective part 301 and the second protective part 302.

[0056] In this embodiment, the protective strip 3 is divided into a first protective part 301 and a second protective part 302, which form a space 304. When a player collides with the basketball backboard protective strip, the air chamber 304 can play a very good cushioning role. The gas inside the air chamber 304 can be compressed to absorb and disperse the energy generated by the impact. Compared with a solid protective structure, this gas cushioning method can more effectively reduce the impact force on the player's body and greatly reduce the risk of injury. For example, when a player rushes towards the basket at high speed and accidentally collides with the protective strip, the air chamber 304 will act like an "air cushion," using its own compression deformation to mitigate the impact force and protect the player's head, shoulders, and other critical parts, further enhancing the overall safety protection function of the protective strip.

[0057] The presence of the air cavity 304 allows the impact force to be evenly distributed between the first protective part 301 and the second protective part 302. Regardless of the location of the impact point on the protective strip, the gas flows and compresses within the air cavity 304 according to the force applied, causing the entire protective structure to work together to evenly transfer the impact force over a larger area, preventing excessive localized stress that could lead to protective failure. This ensures that the protective strip can stably perform its buffering function under impacts of different angles and forces, providing reliable protection for the player and improving the strip's ability to cope with complex impact situations.

[0058] When players use the basketball hoop normally and occasionally have slight contact with the protective strip, the 304 air chamber makes the protective strip feel softer to the touch. Compared to a rigid, purely solid protective structure, the protective strip with the 304 air chamber provides a more comfortable feel for players, preventing strong discomfort from touching the protective strip. This improves the overall experience for players on the basketball court, allowing them to focus more on the game or training without worrying about the protective strip being too hard and affecting their normal movements.

[0059] Furthermore, a filling cavity 305 is provided between the second protective part 302 and the contact protective part 303, and an arc-shaped diffuser glass 4 is also included. The arc-shaped diffuser glass 4 is disposed in the filling cavity 305 and is used to uniformly transmit the light emitted by the light-emitting strip 2 to the outside.

[0060] In this embodiment, the curved diffuser glass 4 is disposed within the filling cavity 305. Its unique curved structure and diffuser properties effectively scatter the light emitted by the light-emitting strip 2. The light originally emitted by the light-emitting strip 2 may have localized uneven brightness or concentrated light, while the curved diffuser glass 4 can redistribute this light, transmitting it evenly to the outside, providing a softer and more uniform lighting effect to the area around the basket. Whether it helps players clearly judge the position of the basket when shooting or provides overall lighting for the court during daily activities, this uniform light greatly improves the lighting quality and enhances practicality.

[0061] By scattering light through the curved diffuser glass 4, the angle of light propagation is widened, thus expanding the illumination range. Compared to the situation without diffuser glass, where light can only travel in a straight line and has a limited coverage area, the curved diffuser glass 4 allows light to diffuse to a wider area, illuminating more areas of the basketball court, reducing blind spots, and further optimizing the lighting environment of the entire basketball court. This enables players in different positions on the court to see their surroundings better, ensuring the smooth running of basketball games.

[0062] Even and soft lighting creates a comfortable visual atmosphere, which not only helps players accurately judge movements and positions during basketball games or training, but also provides a better viewing experience for spectators. There are no issues with glare or uneven lighting that could affect viewing, making the entire basketball court look more professional and comfortable, enhancing the overall visual experience, meeting the requirements of modern sports venues for creating an ambiance, and increasing the attractiveness of the basketball court.

[0063] Furthermore, it also includes a reflective strip 5, which is disposed in the mounting groove 101 and forms a reflective groove 501. The reflective strip 5 is located at the bottom of the mounting groove 101 and is used to reflect light toward the opening 103.

[0064] In this embodiment, the reflective strip 5 is disposed at the bottom of the mounting groove 101 and forms a reflective groove 501, the main function of which is to reflect light. When the light emitted by the light strip 2 propagates to the surroundings, some of the light will be directed toward the bottom of the mounting groove 101. At this time, the reflective strip 5 can reflect this light, which might otherwise be absorbed or lost, back toward the opening 103, that is, toward the basket and the outside. In this way, more light is effectively utilized, increasing the coverage and intensity of light in the area around the basket, making the lighting effect brighter and more uniform, further improving the visual conditions of players when shooting and moving on the court, and helping them to more accurately grasp the movements and judge the situation.

[0065] The reflective effect of reflective strip 5 optimizes the distribution of light. Potentially uneven lighting, such as dim lighting at certain angles, is mitigated by the redistribution of light by reflective strip 5. It allows light to converge and scatter from different directions, reducing blind spots and ensuring sufficient and uniform illumination around the basket. Whether shooting from the front, the side, or an angle, players can clearly see the basket and its surroundings, improving the overall lighting quality and usability of the basketball court.

[0066] Furthermore, the connecting strip 1 has a connecting part 105, which is connected to the corner of the basket.

[0067] In this embodiment, the design of the connecting part 105 can be adjusted and adapted to different specifications and models of basketball hoops. Whether it's a standard-sized basketball hoop, or a non-standard size or a basketball hoop with a special structure, the design of the connecting part 105 takes into account a certain degree of versatility and adjustability, enabling a stable connection. This allows the illuminated basketball hoop backboard protection strip to be widely used in various types of basketball courts, including school playgrounds, community basketball courts, professional sports stadiums, and other different scenarios, expanding the product's applicability and improving its versatility and market competitiveness.

[0068] Furthermore, the connecting part 105 has an adhesive connecting side 106 for bonding with the back side of the backboard, and a suction cup connecting side 107 for connecting with the front side of the backboard. The suction cup connecting side 107 has a plurality of suction cups 108, which are attached to the front side of the backboard.

[0069] In this embodiment, the connecting part 105 is bonded to the back of the backboard using an adhesive connecting side 106, while simultaneously using several suction cups 108 on the suction cup connecting side 107 to adhere to the front side of the backboard. This dual-pronged connection method greatly enhances the stability of the connection between the protective strip and the backboard. During basketball, the protective strip is continuously subjected to various external forces. A single connection method may not be sufficient to ensure its stability. The combination of adhesive bonding and suction cup adsorption provides reliable support for the protective strip from different directions and levels, firmly fixing it to the backboard. This effectively prevents the protective strip from loosening, shifting, or even falling off due to frequent basketball impacts, player collisions, and other external forces, ensuring the long-term stable function of the protective strip.

[0070] The adhesive connection provides a durable and uniform bond, effectively handling the continuous tensile and shear forces encountered during daily use. Meanwhile, the suction cup 108 provides strong suction perpendicular to the backboard, particularly effective against instantaneous impacts, such as the outward force generated when a basketball strikes the backboard. The suction cup 108 uses its suction to resist this external force, preventing the backboard from detaching. The two connection methods work together to allow the backboard to adapt to complex and varied stress environments. Whether under static weight, long-term minor vibrations, or dynamic, strong impacts, it maintains a stable connection to the backboard, further enhancing the structural reliability of the entire basketball hoop system.

[0071] Unlike some installation methods that may damage the backboard by drilling holes or tightening screws, adhesive bonding and suction cup adhesion are relatively gentle and non-destructive connection methods. The adhesive bonding side 106 contacts the backboard with a suitable adhesive, without compromising the structural integrity of the backboard; the suction cup 108 adheres to the backboard surface by suction, without leaving holes, scratches, or other damage. This helps protect the original performance and appearance of the backboard, extending its lifespan. This non-destructive installation method is particularly advantageous for high-quality, high-cost backboards, reducing the cost and hassle of replacement due to damage caused by installing protective strips. It ensures the overall quality and aesthetics of the basketball court facilities. Furthermore, positioning the suction cup 108 on the front of the backboard allows for some displacement, preventing damage to the connection part 105 from collisions with the basketball.

[0072] Furthermore, a damage-proof cavity 109 is formed between the connecting part 105 and the backboard.

[0073] In this embodiment, the anti-damage cavity 109 formed between the connecting part 105 and the backboard plays a crucial role in buffering the impact when the protective strip is subjected to external forces. For example, when a basketball hits the protective strip hard or a player collides with the protective strip, the resulting impact force is first transmitted to the connecting part 105. The anti-damage cavity 109, through its internal space, allows the connecting part 105 a certain amount of displacement and deformation space, thereby buffering part of the impact force and preventing these external forces from acting directly and rigidly on the backboard. This reduces the probability of the backboard being damaged or cracked due to sudden strong impact, effectively extending the service life of the backboard and better protecting this key component of the basketball hoop.

[0074] The damage-resistant cavity 109 helps to distribute the stress generated by external forces more evenly in the contact area between the connection part 105 and the backboard. Because of this space, the force is not concentrated at a few localized points, but rather, through the conduction of air (or other filling medium) within the damage-resistant cavity 109 and the corresponding deformation of the connection part 105, the stress is evenly distributed over a larger contact surface. This makes the overall stress on the backboard more even and reasonable, further reducing the risk of backboard damage due to excessive localized stress, and ensuring the structural integrity and stability of the backboard during long-term use.

[0075] Furthermore, it also includes a position sensor 6, which is mounted on the backboard and located on one side of the basket to detect whether a goal has been scored. A light 7 is mounted on the backboard or connecting strip 1 and is configured to change color or light up after the position sensor 6 detects a goal.

[0076] In this embodiment, the position sensor 6 is installed on the backboard and located on one side of the basket, enabling precise detection of whether a goal has been scored. When a goal is detected, the light 7 changes color or illuminates accordingly. This real-time feedback mechanism greatly enhances the interactivity and fun of basketball games or training sessions. Whether players are on the court or spectators are watching, they can immediately and intuitively know whether a goal has been scored, improving the sense of participation and experience throughout the entire basketball game.

[0077] The color-changing or glowing effect of the LED 7 after a goal creates a unique atmosphere for the basketball court. Especially in outdoor basketball courts at night or indoor venues with dim lighting, when the LED 7 lights up or changes color when a goal is scored, it instantly makes the entire court more vivid and lively, attracting the attention of the audience and making the game more entertaining and exciting.

[0078] Furthermore, the bottom of the connecting strip 1 has a buffer cavity 110, which is located on one side of the damage prevention cavity 109, and also includes a flexible filler 8, which is disposed inside the buffer cavity 110.

[0079] In this embodiment, a buffer cavity 110 is provided at the bottom of the connecting strip 1 and filled with flexible filler 8. This design adds another layer of effective buffer structure to the protective strip. During basketball, when the basketball hits the protective strip or a player collides with it, the external force is first initially buffered by the structure of the protective strip itself (such as the protective band). Then, the transmitted force acts on the connecting strip 1. At this time, the flexible filler 8 in the buffer cavity 110 can play a role, absorbing and dispersing the remaining impact force through its own deformation. Working together with the previous protective structure and the damage prevention cavity 109 (if present), a multi-layer buffer system is constructed, which greatly reduces the impact of external forces on the backboard and the entire basketball hoop structure, further reducing the risk of component damage or loosening due to impact, and ensuring the stability and safety of the basketball hoop under high-intensity use scenarios.

[0080] The flexible filler 8 within the buffer cavity 110 can flexibly change its shape according to the direction and magnitude of the external force, thereby distributing the force more evenly to the bottom and surrounding area of ​​the connecting strip 1. Compared to the absence of this buffer structure, the force is not concentrated in a localized area, but is evenly transmitted to a larger contact surface through the deformation of the flexible filler 8. This makes the force distribution between the connecting strip 1 and the backboard more reasonable and uniform, avoiding problems such as deformation and cracking of the connection points caused by excessive localized force. It maintains the integrity of the entire connection structure between the protective strip and the backboard, extends the service life of each component, and enhances the overall ability of the basketball hoop to withstand complex external force environments.
