Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sports equipment technology, specifically a novel foldable portable basketball hoop. Background Technology

[0002] A portable basketball hoop is a type of basketball equipment that is easy to set up temporarily.

[0003] There are generally two types of basketball hoops: The first type is a simple structure consisting only of a basketball hoop, which requires external fixed objects (such as trees or poles) for suspension and installation. While this design is portable, it suffers from severe dependence on specific locations, requiring an upright support that meets the height and load-bearing requirements. It cannot be used independently in open, flat areas, greatly limiting its application scenarios. The second type is a portable basketball hoop with a frame and base, typically consisting of a rigid frame and a base with wheels. While this design can be used independently, it cannot be folded for storage. The frame and base are usually fixedly connected, resulting in a large overall size. Disassembly is required to fit the components into a vehicle or elevator during transport, and reassembly is time-consuming and laborious. Furthermore, the inability to fold when not in use results in excessive space occupation, causing inconvenience for storage in homes or public places. Therefore, a new type of foldable portable basketball hoop is proposed to solve the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a novel foldable portable basketball hoop, which features quick folding and storage, independent and stable support, and convenient movement and transportation. It solves the problems of reliance on external fixation, transportation difficulties due to non-folding, and large storage space requirements.

[0005] (II) Technical Solution To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A novel foldable portable basketball hoop includes a base and a folding adjustment assembly, wherein the folding adjustment assembly is disposed on the top of the base; The folding adjustment assembly includes a bracket, an auxiliary fixing bracket, a counterweight pack, base rollers, and a handling handle. The lower end of the bracket is fixedly installed on the top of the base near the front end. The two ends of the auxiliary fixing bracket abut against the top of the base and the rear side of the bracket, respectively. The counterweight pack is placed on the top of the base. There are two base rollers, which are fixedly installed on both sides of the base near the front end. The handling handle is fixedly installed at the rear end of the base.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the counterweight bag is a hollow plastic container, and a counterweight bag fixing clip is fixedly installed on the top of the base and on both sides of the counterweight bag.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the counterweight bag fixing clamp is composed of a base plate and a rotating block. The base plate is bolted to the top of the base and is hinged to the rotating block. The rotating block has a protrusion on the side facing the counterweight bag. The counterweight bag has grooves on both sides and is respectively inserted into the protrusions of the two rotating blocks.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the lower end of the bracket is provided with a base, and the base is bolted to the top of the base. The top of the base is slotted, and a shaft is fixedly installed in the slot. The main body of the bracket is composed of several telescopic rods, and the bottom of the lowest telescopic rod is rotatably connected to the base through the shaft. Each telescopic rod has equally spaced threaded grooves on its front side, and the front sides of the insertion points of two adjacent telescopic rods are threadedly connected and fixedly installed with fasteners.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the telescopic rod described in the last section is fitted with a bracket sleeve after being fixedly installed on the outside. The front side of the bracket sleeve is provided with a threaded through hole, and the bracket sleeve and the telescopic rod are also fixed by a fastener threaded connection. The rear part of the bracket sleeve and the top of the base are provided with insertion holes, and the two ends of the auxiliary fixing bracket are respectively inserted into the two insertion holes.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, roller locking devices are installed on the outer sides of both base rollers, a backboard is bolted to the front side of the uppermost telescopic rod, and a basketball hoop is hinged to the front side of the backboard.

[0011] (III) Beneficial Effects Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a novel foldable portable basketball hoop, which has the following beneficial effects: This new type of foldable portable basketball hoop achieves height adjustment and folding storage through the coordinated design of the base and folding adjustment components. The multi-segment telescopic rod structure of the support frame, combined with fasteners, enables this. The insertion and locking of the support sleeve and auxiliary fixing bracket enhances unfolded stability. Meanwhile, the base wheels and carrying handle facilitate overall movement. The weight pack is secured by inserting protrusions into the weight pack fixing clips via grooves on both sides. Water or sand can be added to the hollow plastic container to adapt to different weight requirements, avoiding reliance on external fixing objects. The wheel locking device ensures the base's anti-displacement capability during use, while the hinged connection design between the backboard and the rim further reduces the folded size. Ultimately, this design solves the problems of traditional portable basketball hoops, such as reliance on environmental support, poor foldability, difficulty in transportation and storage, and large footprint, achieving a unified function of rapid deployment, stable use, and compact storage.
